Mandatory Indemnification (a) The Trust hereby agrees to indemnify each person who at any time serves as a Trustee or officer of the Trust (each such person being an "indemnitee") against any liabilities and expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and reasonable counsel fees reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative or investigative body in which he may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise or with which he may be or may have been threatened, while acting in any capacity set forth in this Article V by reason of his having acted in any such capacity, except with respect to any matter as to which he shall not have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the Trust or, in the case of any criminal proceeding, as to which he shall have had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful, provided, however, that no indemnitee shall be indemnified hereunder against any liability to any person or any expense of such indemnitee arising by reason of (i) willful misfeasance, (ii) bad faith, (iii) gross negligence, or (iv) reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his position (the conduct referred to in such clauses (i) through (iv) being sometimes referred to herein as "disabling conduct"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any action, suit or other proceeding voluntarily prosecuted by any indemnitee as plaintiff, indemnification shall be mandatory only if the prosecution of such action, suit or other proceeding by such indemnitee (1) was authorized by a majority of the Trustees or (2) was instituted by the indemnitee to enforce his or her rights to indemnification hereunder in a case in which the indemnitee is found to be entitled to such indemnification. The rights to indemnification set forth in this Declaration shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Trustee or officer of the Trust and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. No amendment or restatement of this Declaration or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate any of the benefits provided to any person who at any time is or was a Trustee or officer of the Trust or otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder in respect of any act or omission that occurred prior to such amendment, restatement or repeal. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification shall be made hereunder unless there has been a determination (i) by a final decision on the merits by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction before whom the issue of entitlement to indemnification hereunder was brought that such indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder or, (ii) in the absence of such a decision, by (1) a majority vote of a quorum of those Trustees who are neither "interested persons" of the Trust (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 0000 Xxx) nor parties to the proceeding ("Disinterested Non-Party Trustees"), that the indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or (2) if such quorum is not obtainable or even if obtainable, if such majority so directs, independent legal counsel in a written opinion concludes that the indemnitee should be entitled to indemnification hereunder. All determinations to make advance payments in connection with the expense of defending any proceeding shall be authorized and made in accordance with the immediately succeeding paragraph (c) below. (c) The Trust shall make advance payments in connection with the expenses of defending any action with respect to which indemnification might be sought hereunder if the Trust receives a written affirmation by the indemnitee of the indemnitee's good faith belief that the standards of conduct necessary for indemnification have been met and a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust unless it is subsequently determined that the indemnitee is entitled to such indemnification and if a majority of the Trustees determine that the applicable standards of conduct necessary for indemnification appear to have been met. In addition, at least one of the following conditions must be met: (i) the indemnitee shall provide adequate security for his undertaking, (ii) the Trust shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances, or (iii) a majority of a quorum of the Disinterested Non-Party Trustees, or if a majority vote of such quorum so direct, independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall conclude, based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that there is substantial reason to believe that the indemnitee ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification. (d) The rights accruing to any indemnitee under these provisions shall not exclude any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Declaration, the By-Laws of the Trust, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or Trustees who are "disinterested persons" (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 0000 Xxx) or any other right to which he or she may be lawfully entitled. (e) Subject to any limitations provided by the 1940 Act and this Declaration, the Trust shall have the power and authority to indemnify and provide for the advance payment of expenses to employees, agents and other Persons providing services to the Trust or serving in any capacity at the request of the Trust to the full extent corporations organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law may indemnify or provide for the advance payment of expenses for such Persons, provided that such indemnification has been approved by a majority of the Trustees.
Mandatory Indemnification; Indemnification as a Witness (i) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses relating to such Claim in accordance with Section 2 to the fullest extent allowable by law, and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 8(b)) shall be required. (ii) To the extent that Xxxxxxxxxx’s involvement in a Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event is to prepare to serve and serve as a witness, and not as a party, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses incurred in connection therewith to the fullest extent allowable by law and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 8(b)) shall be required.
Additional Indemnification (a) Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. (b) For purposes of Section 7(a), the meaning of the phrase “to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law” shall include, but not be limited to: i. to the fullest extent permitted by the provision of the DGCL that authorizes or contemplates additional indemnification by agreement, or the corresponding provision of any amendment to or replacement of the DGCL, and ii. to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors.
Indemnification Matters The Company hereby acknowledges that one (1) or more of the directors nominated to serve on the Board of Directors by the Investors (each a “Fund Director”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more of the Investors and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (a) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any such Fund Director are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Fund Director are secondary), (b) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Fund Director and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of any such Fund Director to the extent legally permitted and as required by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company (or any agreement between the Company and such Fund Director), without regard to any rights such Fund Director may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and, (c) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of any such Fund Director with respect to any claim for which such Fund Director has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Fund Director against the Company.
Additional Indemnification Provisions (a) With respect to each indemnification obligation under this Agreement (i) each such obligation shall be calculated on an After-Tax Basis and (ii) all Losses shall be net of any third-party insurance proceeds that have been recovered or are recoverable by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification. (b) If an Indemnifying Party makes any payment for any Losses suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party pursuant to the provisions of this Article VII, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses and with respect to the claim giving rise to such Losses. (c) The right to indemnification or other remedy based on any representations, warranties, obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or in any of the Ancillary Agreements, will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any notice or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired), with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as set forth on Section 7.7(c) of the ABI Disclosure Letter, ABI shall not have any liability relating to any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made herein that, as of the date hereof, any Buyer Party had Knowledge of the breach or inaccuracy of the representation or warranty or of the facts relating to such breach or inaccuracy.
Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims (a) In the event that any party (the “Indemnified Person”) desires to make a claim against any other party (the “Indemnifying Person”) in connection with any Losses for which the Indemnified Person may seek indemnification hereunder in respect of a claim or demand made by any Person not a party to this Agreement against the Indemnified Person (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Person must notify the Indemnifying Person in writing, of the Third-Party Claim (a “Third-Party Claim Notice”) as promptly as reasonably possible after receipt, but in no event later than fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt, by such Indemnified Person of notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, that failure to give a Third-Party Claim Notice on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Upon receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Person’s election, to assume or participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the cost of Indemnifying Person. In any case in which the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall give the Indemnified Person ten (10) calendar days’ notice prior to executing any settlement agreement and the Indemnified Person shall have the right to approve or reject the settlement and related expenses; provided, however, that upon rejection of any settlement and related expenses, the Indemnified Person shall assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the liability of the Indemnifying Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim shall be limited to the amount or the monetary equivalent of the rejected settlement and related expenses. (b) The Indemnified Person shall retain the right to employ its own counsel and to discuss matters with the Indemnifying Person related to the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the defense of which has been assumed by the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 10.3(a) of this Agreement, but the Indemnified Person shall bear and shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses in connection with such participation; provided, however, that, subject to Section 10.3(a) above, all decisions of the Indemnifying Person shall be final and the Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Person in all respects in the defense of the Third-Party Claim, including refraining from taking any position adverse to the Indemnifying Person. (c) If the Indemnifying Person fails to give notice of the assumption of the defense of any Third-Party Claim within a reasonable time period not to exceed forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person shall no longer be entitled to assume (but shall continue to be entitled to participate in) such defense. The Indemnified Person may, at its option, continue to defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the Indemnifying Person shall indemnify the Indemnified Person for all reasonable fees and expenses in connection therewith (provided it is a Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Person is otherwise obligated to provide indemnification hereunder). The Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate at its own expense and with its own counsel in the defense of any Third-Party Claim the defense of which it does not assume. Prior to effectuating any settlement of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall furnish the Indemnifying Person with written notice of any proposed settlement in sufficient time to allow the Indemnifying Person to act thereon. Within fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice, the Indemnified Person shall be permitted to effect such settlement unless the Indemnifying Person (a) reimburses the Indemnified Person in accordance with the terms of this Article 10 for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with such Claim; (b) assumes the defense of such Third-Party Claim; and (c) takes such other actions as the Indemnified Person may reasonably request as assurance of the Indemnifying Person’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this Article 10 in connection with such Third-Party Claim.
Indemnification; Third Party Claims The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor and the Trustee, and their respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates, and hold each of them harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liability, fees and expenses that the Depositor, the Sponsor or the Trustee may sustain as a result of (a) any material breach by the Master Servicer of any if its obligations hereunder, including particularly its obligations to provide any reports under Section 9.25(a), Section 9.25(b), Section 9.26 or any information, data or materials required to be included in any Exchange Act report, (b) any material misstatement or omission in any information, data or materials provided by the Master Servicer, or (c) the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Master Servicer in connection with its performance hereunder, provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be liable for any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages pursuant to this Section 9.31, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. The Depositor, the Sponsor and the Trustee shall immediately notify the Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Depositor, the Sponsor or the Trustee to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer shall assume the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Master Servicer shall not settle any claim involving any of the other parties hereto without such party’s prior written consent unless such settlement involves a complete and absolute release of such party from any and all liability in connection with such claim. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the termination of the Master Servicer as a party to this Agreement.
Additional Indemnification by the Servicer; Third Party Claims The Servicer shall indemnify the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer (and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents) and the Trust Fund, and hold them harmless against any and all Costs that any such indemnified party may sustain in any way related to (i) the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in material compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including, but not limited to its obligation to provide the certification pursuant to Section 5.03(b) hereunder) or for any inaccurate or misleading information provided in the certification required pursuant to Section 5.03(b) or (ii) the failure of the Servicer to cause any event to occur or not to occur which would have occurred or would not have occurred, as applicable, if the Servicer were applying Accepted Servicing Practices under this Agreement. The Servicer shall immediately notify the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any other relevant party if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans, assume (with the prior written consent of the indemnified party in the event of an indemnified claim) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or any other party in respect of such claim and follow any written instructions received from such indemnifying party in connection with such claim. Subject to the Servicer’s indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02, or the failure of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in material compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Trust Fund shall indemnify the Servicer and hold the Servicer harmless against any and all Costs that the Servicer may sustain in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement, the Certificates or the origination or Servicing of the Mortgage Loans by any prior owner or servicer, other than any Costs incurred by reason of the Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.
Other Indemnification Matters Any claim for indemnification under this Article X must be asserted by providing written notice to the other parties specifying the factual basis of the claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the Person asserting the claim. The right to indemnification will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the date hereof, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS IN THIS ARTICLE X WILL BE ENFORCEABLE REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY PERSON ALLEGES OR PROVES THE SOLE, CONCURRENT, CONTRIBUTORY OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF THE PERSON SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED ON THE PERSON SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION OR ITS AFFILIATES. THE WAIVER OF ANY CONDITION BASED ON THE ACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, OR ON THE PERFORMANCE OF OR COMPLIANCE WITH ANY COVENANT OR AGREEMENT, WILL NOT AFFECT THE RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION, PAYMENT OF DAMAGES, OR OTHER REMEDY BASED ON ANY SUCH REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, COVENANT OR AGREEMENT. If any party liquidates or dissolves at any time when any Liability of such party with respect to this Article X may thereafter arise or be determined, then at the time of such liquidation or dissolution, such party will cause its shareholders, members, partners or other equity holders or distributees of such party’s assets, as the case may be, to take such assets subject to such Liabilities ratably in proportion to the assets received; provided, however, that the failure on behalf of any party to comply with the covenant set forth in this sentence will in no way reduce such party’s obligations in this Agreement.
LEGAL INDEMNIFICATION For the purposes of legal costs, it shall include those costs of an Association approved para-legal service. (A) Subject to the other provisions of this Article, a member charged with and finally acquitted of a criminal or statutory offence because of acts done in the performance or attempted performance of his employment or duties, shall be indemnified for the necessary and reasonable legal costs incurred in the defence of such charges. (B) Members shall not be indemnified for legal costs arising from the actions or omissions of members acting in their capacity as private citizens. For the purpose of Clause 29.1 (A) a Member: shall be deemed to have been "Finally Acquitted", where charges are withdrawn or where he is discharged following a preliminary inquiry; and shall be deemed not to have been "Finally Acquitted" where the member is given an absolute or conditional discharge or where, if as a result of charges laid he is subsequently found guilty of, or pleads guilty to, other charges arising out of the same incident or incidents. 29.2 When a member is a defendant in a civil action for damages because of acts done in the course of his employment or duties he shall be indemnified for the necessary and reasonable legal costs incurred in the defence of such an action in the following circumstances only: (i) where the Board is not joined in the action as a party pursuant to s. 50 of the Police Services Act, and the Board does not defend the action on behalf of itself and the member as joint tortfeasors at the Board's sole expense; (ii) where the Board is joined as a party or elects to defend the action, but the Solicitor retained on behalf of the Board and the member is of the view that it would be improper for him to act for both the Board and the member in that action. 29.3 Where during an inquest under the Coroner's Act a member's conduct is called into question because of acts done in the performance of his duties, the member shall be indemnified for any necessary and reasonable legal costs directly arising from the protection of the member's interest at such inquiry, but only if: (i) the Chief of Police or the Board does not provide counsel to represent the York Regional Police, at the Board's expense; or (ii) in the opinion of counsel retained by the Chief of Police or the Board to represent the York Regional Police, it would be improper for him to represent the member and the Chief and/or the Board before that inquiry. 29.4 To qualify for financial assistance under 29.1, 29.2 or 29.3, the member shall obtain the Board's approval of counsel to be retained by the member by application to the Board through the Chief. The Board's approval of counsel shall not be withheld unreasonably. 29.5 The Board will not consider any application for financial assistance which relates to the legal representation of a member in connection with a grievance or complaint made under the provisions of the Police Services Act, 1990 of this Collective Agreement or for the legal defence of a member resulting from a discipline charge made under the Police Services Act, 1990, Regulations made under that Act and all amendments thereto. 29.6 Where an investigation is commenced under Part VII of the Police Services Act and it appears to the Chief of Police that a member requires legal counsel in responding to the investigation, the Chief of Police may arrange for legal counsel to provide counsel to the member in connection with the investigation of such terms as the Chief considers appropriate. As soon as practicable, the Chief shall bring his action and his recommendation to the attention of the Board who may approve or alter the terms of retention of such legal counsel or the Chief's recommendation in respect thereof. Neither the Board nor the Chief shall provide legal counsel after the completion of the investigation or the laying of information(s), as Article 29 of the Civilian Collective Agreement is intended to govern such matters. 29.7 All sections under Article 29 (Legal Indemnification) are subject to review and re- negotiation by either the Board or the Association when the Regulations of the Police Services Act are proclaimed in force. If changes cannot be negotiated then either party reserves the right to submit the terms of this Article to arbitration. 29.8 A member who becomes involved in a matter which may entitle him/her to legal indemnification under this clause is entitled to receive funds from the Board for a retainer and/or for interim payment of legal costs as reasonably requested by the member’s counsel to a maximum of $5,000.00 provided the member undertakes to indemnify the Board for such funds advanced to him if the member is finally determined not to be eligible for indemnification in accordance with this Agreement.
