Conduct of Claims In the event of any claims, statutory fees, costs, charges, penalties (including without limitation any legal costs), contributions, compensations, cost recoveries, expenses or fines being levied or claimed from a person in respect of which an indemnity is provided by the Supplier pursuant to ARTICLE 11, the following provisions shall apply:
(a) subject to Sections 11.3(b), 11.3(c) and 11.3(d), where it appears that a person is or may be entitled to indemnification from the Supplier in respect of all (but not part only) of the liability arising out of a claim, such person entitled to indemnification may at its sole election and subject to:
(i) approval by any relevant insurers (without prejudice to Section 11.3(f); and
(ii) the Supplier providing the party entitled to indemnification with a secured indemnity to its reasonable satisfaction against all costs and expenses (including legal expenses) that it may incur by reason of such action, permit or require the Supplier to dispute the claim on behalf of the person entitled to indemnification at the Supplier’s own expense and take conduct of any defence, dispute, compromise, or appeal of the claim and of any incidental negotiations; provided that the person entitled to indemnification shall give the Supplier (provided at the Supplier’s cost) all reasonable cooperation, access and assistance for the purposes of considering and resisting such claim;
(b) with respect to any claim conducted by the Supplier pursuant to Section 11.3(a):
(i) the Supplier shall keep the person entitled to indemnification fully informed and consult with it about material elements of the conduct of the claim;
(ii) the Supplier shall not bring the name of the person entitled to indemnification (or any Group Member thereof) into disrepute; and
(iii) the Supplier shall not pay or settle such claims without the prior consent of the person entitled to indemnification, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
(c) a person entitled to indemnification shall be free to pay or settle any claim on such terms as it thinks fit (and without prejudice to its rights and remedies under this Agreement) if:
(i) the Supplier is not entitled to, or is not permitted or instructed, take conduct of the claim in accordance with Section 11.3(a); or
(ii) the Supplier fails to comply in any material respect with the provisions of Sections 11.3(a) or 11.3(b);
(d) the person entitled to indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE 11 shall be free at any time to give notice to the Supplier that it is retaining or taking over (as the case may be) the conduct of any defence, dispute, compromise or appeal of any claim (or of any incidental negotiations) to which Section 11.3(a) applies. On receipt of such notice the Supplier shall promptly take all steps necessary to transfer the conduct of such claim to the person entitled to indemnification, and shall provide to the person entitled to indemnification all reasonable co- operation, access and assistance for the purposes of considering and resisting such claim;
(e) if the Supplier pays to the person entitled to indemnification an amount in respect of an indemnity and the person entitled to indemnification subsequently recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, saving, relief or other benefit or otherwise) a sum which is directly referable to the fact, matter, event or circumstances giving rise to the claim under the indemnity, the person entitled to indemnification shall forthwith repay to the Supplier whichever is the lesser of:
(i) an amount equal to the sum recovered (or the value of the saving or benefit obtained) less any out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including legal expenses) properly incurred by the person entitled to indemnification in recovering the same; and
(ii) the amount paid to the person entitled to indemnification by the Supplier in respect of the claim under the relevant indemnity, provided that there shall be no obligation on the part of the person entitled to indemnification to pursue such recovery and that the Supplier is repaid only to the extent that the amount of such recovery aggregated with any sum recovered from the Supplier exceeds any loss sustained by the person entitled to indemnification;
(f) the Supplier shall inform the person entitled to indemnification of the requirements of any insurer who may have an obligation to provide an indemnity in respect of any liability arising under this Agreement and in relation to such the person entitled to indemnification shall issue instructions accordingly; and
(g) any person entitled to an indemnity from the Supplier must take all reasonable measures to mitigate any loss, damage or liability that it may suffer in respect of any such matter.
Compliance with Consensus Policies and Temporary Policies Registry Operator shall comply with and implement all Consensus Policies and Temporary Policies found at <xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/general/consensus-‐policies.htm>, as of the Effective Date and as may in the future be developed and adopted in accordance with the ICANN Bylaws, provided such future Consensus Polices and Temporary Policies are adopted in accordance with the procedure and relate to those topics and subject to those limitations set forth in Specification 1 attached hereto (“Specification 1”).
Procedures for Voting and Consents The rules and procedures for calling and conducting any meeting of the holders of Designated Preferred Stock (including, without limitation, the fixing of a record date in connection therewith), the solicitation and use of proxies at such a meeting, the obtaining of written consents and any other aspect or matter with regard to such a meeting or such consents shall be governed by any rules of the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may adopt from time to time, which rules and procedures shall conform to the requirements of the Charter, the Bylaws, and applicable law and the rules of any national securities exchange or other trading facility on which Designated Preferred Stock is listed or traded at the time.
Notification and Defense of Claims The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Indemnitors in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information, or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder, but the failure so to notify the Indemnitors will not relieve the Indemnitors from any liability that the Indemnitors may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement unless the Indemnitors are materially prejudiced thereby. With respect to any such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitors of the commencement thereof:
(A) The Indemnitors will be entitled to participate therein at their own expense.
(B) Except as otherwise provided below, the Indemnitors will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Indemnitors to Indemnitee of the Indemnitors’ election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnitors will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee’s own counsel in such Proceeding, but the fees and disbursements of such counsel incurred after notice from the Indemnitors of the Indemnitors’ assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (a) the employment by counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Indemnitors, (b) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, (c) such Proceeding seeks penalties or other relief against the Indemnitee with respect to which the Indemnitors could not provide monetary indemnification to the Indemnitee (such as injunctive relief or incarceration) or (d) the Indemnitors shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the fees and disbursements of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitors. The Indemnitors shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Indemnitors, or as to which Indemnitee shall have reached the conclusion specified in clause (b) above, or which involves penalties or other relief against Indemnitee of the type referred to in clause (c) above.
(C) The Indemnitors shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without the Indemnitors’ written consent. The Indemnitors shall not settle any action or claim in any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Indemnitors nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay consent to any proposed settlement.
Procedures for Notification and Defense of Claim (a) Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include, in reasonable detail, a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding. The failure by Indemnitee to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights, except to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.
(b) If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a Proceeding pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect that may be applicable to the Proceeding, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of the Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall thereafter take all commercially-reasonable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(c) In the event the Company may be obligated to make any indemnity in connection with a Proceeding, the Company shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel approved by Indemnitee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee for any fees or expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same Proceeding. Notwithstanding the Company’s assumption of the defense of any such Proceeding, the Company shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s separate counsel to the extent (i) the employment of separate counsel by Indemnitee is authorized by the Company, (ii) counsel for the Company or Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense such that Indemnitee needs to be separately represented, (iii) the Company is not financially or legally able to perform its indemnification obligations or (iv) the Company shall not have retained, or shall not continue to retain, counsel to defend such Proceeding. The Company shall have the right to conduct such defense as it sees fit in its sole discretion. Regardless of any provision in this Agreement, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any Proceeding at Indemnitee’s personal expense. The Company shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Company.
(d) Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation in connection with the Proceeding as may be reasonably appropriate.
(e) The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee for any settlement of any Proceeding (or any part thereof) without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(f) The Company shall not settle any Proceeding (or any part thereof) in a manner that imposes any penalty or liability on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Notification of Claims (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim, demand or circumstance that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim, demand or circumstance (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article XI except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, it being understood that notices for claims in respect of a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty or breach of or default under any obligation or covenant must be delivered before the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 11.4(a).
(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 11.5(a) with respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim upon written notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of the applicable Claim Notice and, in the event that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such claim, it shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. The Person that shall control the defense of any such Third Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) shall select counsel, contractors and consultants of recognized standing and competence after consultation with the other party and shall take all steps reasonably necessary in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim.
(c) The Sellers or the Buyer, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Controlling Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided that (i) such settlement shall not encumber any of the assets of the Indemnified Party or contain any restriction or condition that would apply to such Indemnified Party or to the conduct of the Indemnified Party’s business, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement (subject to Section 11.3, if applicable), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim.
Limitation of Claims All claims under the Bonds and this Bond Agreement for payment, including interest and principal, shall be subject to the time-bar provisions of the Norwegian Limitation Act of May 18, 1979 No. 18.
Resolution of Claims The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 8(a)(i) if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with our without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 8(a)(i). The Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome this presumption.
Transfer of Claims The Restructuring Support Parties agree, with the exception of the permitted transfers and purchases enumerated in (a) and (b) below, that no Restructuring Support Party will, directly or indirectly, sell, contract to sell, give, assign, hypothecate, pledge, encumber, grant a security interest in, offer, sell any option or contract to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any economic, voting or other rights in or to, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively, “Transfer”), all or any portion of its First Xxxx Xxxx Claims or First Lien Bank Claims now or hereafter owned, and no such Transfer will be effective, unless the transferee executes and provides to the Company and counsel to the Consenting Creditors a transfer agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E within two (2) Business Days of the execution of an agreement (or trade confirmation) in respect of such Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Caesars Parties agree that any such transfer agreement shall be included in the definition of “Confidential Claims Information” in Section 5(a)(iii) hereof. In addition to the foregoing Transfer, the following Transfers shall be permitted:
(a) any Transfer by one Consenting Creditor to an Affiliate of such Consenting Creditor or one or more of its affiliated funds or an affiliated entity or entities with a common investment advisor or investment manager (in each case, other than portfolio companies); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any transferee under this Section 12(a) shall be deemed a Consenting Creditor for purposes of this Agreement, effective as of the date of the Transfer, and any transferor under this Section 12(a) shall remain liable in all respects for any breach of this Agreement by such transferee; and
(b) any Transfer by one Consenting Creditor to another Consenting Creditor. Any Transfer of any Restructuring Support Party’s First Xxxx Xxxx Claims or First Lien Bank Claims that does not comply with the foregoing shall be deemed void ab initio; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that upon any purchase, acquisition, or assumption by any Restructuring Support Party of any Claims (including but not limited to First Xxxx Xxxx Claims and First Lien Bank Claims), such Claims shall automatically be deemed to be subject to all the terms of this Agreement. The restrictions in this Agreement are in addition to any Transfer restrictions in the Credit Agreement, the First Lien Indentures, and Non-First Lien Indentures, and in the event of a conflict the Transfer restrictions contained in this Agreement shall control; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict, waive, or suspend any consent right the Company may have with respect to any Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Qualified Marketmaker, acting solely in its capacity as such, that acquires any First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim subject to this Agreement shall not be required to execute a Transfer Agreement or otherwise agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth herein if, and only if, such Qualified Marketmaker sells or assigns such First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim within ten (10) Business Days of its acquisition and the purchaser or assignee of such First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim is a Consenting Creditor or an entity that executes and provides a Transfer Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth herein; provided that if a Qualified Marketmaker, acting solely in its capacity as such, acquires First Xxxx Xxxx Debt or First Lien Bank Debt from an entity who is not a Consenting Creditor with respect to such debt (collectively, “Qualified Unrestricted Claims”), such Qualified Marketmaker may Transfer any right, title or interest in such Qualified Unrestricted Claims without the requirement that the transferee execute a Transfer Agreement; provided further that any such Qualified Marketmaker that is a Party to this Agreement shall otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 2(a)(iii) hereof) with respect to Qualified Unrestricted Claims pending the completion of any such Transfer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (a) to the extent that a Restructuring Support Party effects the Transfer of all of its Claims in accordance with this Agreement, such Restructuring Support Party shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement in all respects and shall have no further obligations hereunder; provided, however, that if such Restructuring Support Party acquires a Claim at any point thereafter, it shall be deemed to be a Party to this Agreement on the same terms as if it had not effected a Transfer of all of its Claims; and (b) subject to Section 2(a)(iii) hereof, to the extent that a Restructuring Support Party effects the Transfer of a Claim that it holds as a participant (and not grantor) pursuant to a participation agreement with voting provisions substantially similar to those set forth in the form of participation agreement produced by the Loan Syndications & Trading Association, the transferee thereof shall not be required to execute a Transfer Agreement.
