Obligation to Indemnify Subject to the provisions of this Section IV.G, Company will indemnify and hold Investor, its Affiliates, managers and advisors, and each of their officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees, representatives, agents and attorneys, and any person who controls Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, “Investor Parties” and each a “Investor Party”), harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, reasonable costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation (collectively, “Losses”) that any Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (b) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus, Prospectus Supplement, or any information incorporated by reference therein, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (c) any action by a creditor or stockholder of Company who is not an Affiliate of an Investor Party, challenging the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that Company will not be obligated to indemnify any Investor Party for any Losses finally adjudicated to be caused solely by (i) a false statement of material fact contained within written information provided by such Investor Party expressly for the purpose of including it in the applicable Registration Statement, Prospectus, Prospectus Supplement, or (ii) such Investor Party’s unexcused material breach of an express provision of this Agreement or another Transaction Document.
Right to Indemnification Each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he, she or it is or was the Sole Member, a Manager, an Officer, or an officer, director or stockholder of the Sole Member in its capacity as sole member of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, manager or officer of another limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “Indemnitee”), whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as an equity holder, manager, director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as an equity holder, manager, director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company, to the fullest extent permitted or required by the Delaware General Corporation Law as if the Company were a Delaware corporation, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits broader indemnification rights than such law permitted prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended and as may be further amended from time to time (“ERISA”), or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 5.6 with respect to Proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Company shall indemnify any such Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Managers.
No Indemnification This indemnity will not apply in respect of an Indemnified Party in the event and to the extent that a Court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment shall determine that the Indemnified Party was grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct.
Indemnitee’s Entitlement to Indemnification In making any Standard of Conduct Determination, the person or persons making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee has satisfied the applicable standard of conduct and is entitled to indemnification, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption and establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled. Any Standard of Conduct Determination that is adverse to Indemnitee may be challenged by the Indemnitee in the Delaware Court. No determination by the Company (including by its directors or any Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not satisfied any applicable standard of conduct may be used as a defense to any legal proceedings brought by Indemnitee to secure indemnification or reimbursement or advance payment of Expenses by the Company hereunder or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard of conduct.
Agreement to Indemnify The Company agrees to indemnify Indemnitee as follows:
D&O Indemnification (a) In the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in which any individual who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of Star, Firstar, Foxtrot (DE) or any of their respective Subsidiaries, including any entity specified in the Star Disclosure Schedule or the Firstar Disclosure Schedule (the "Indemnified Parties"), is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he is or was a director or officer of Star, Firstar, Foxtrot (DE) or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any entity specified in the Star Disclosure Schedule or the Firstar Disclosure Schedule or any of their respective predecessors or (ii) this Agreement, the Option Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Effective Time, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to defend against and respond thereto. It is understood and agreed that after the Effective Time, Foxtrot (DE) shall indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each such Indemnified Party against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any such threatened or actual claims, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, and in the event of any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether asserted or arising before or after the Effective Time); and Foxtrot (DE), after consultation with an Indemnified Party, shall retain counsel and direct the defense thereof, provided, however, that by virtue of the obligations herein set forth, (A) Foxtrot (DE) shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except that if Foxtrot (DE) fails or elects not to assume such defense or counsel for the Indemnified Parties reasonably advises the Indemnified Parties that there are issues which raise conflicts of interest between Foxtrot (DE) and the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them after consultation with Foxtrot (DE), and Foxtrot (DE) shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties promptly as statements therefor are received, (B) Foxtrot (DE) shall be obligated pursuant to this paragraph to pay for only one firm of counsel (in addition to local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) for all Indemnified Parties, unless an Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel and after consultation with Foxtrot (DE), that in order to be adequately represented, separate counsel is necessary for such Indemnified Party, in which case, Foxtrot (DE) shall be obligated to pay for such separate counsel, (C) Foxtrot (DE) shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (D) Foxtrot (DE) shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final and nonappealable, that indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable law. Foxtrot (DE) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, advance expenses to such Indemnified Parties prior to final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding, or investigation upon receipt of an undertaking to repay any such advances of fees and expenses if such person is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification therefor. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim Indemnification under this Section 6.10, upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall notify Foxtrot (DE) thereof, provided that the failure to so notify shall not affect the obligations of Foxtrot (DE) under this Section 6.10 except to the extent such failure to notify materially prejudices Foxtrot (DE). Foxtrot (DE)'s obligations under this Section 6.10 shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six years from the Effective Time (or the period of the applicable statute of limitations, if longer); provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim (a "Claim") asserted or made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such Claim.
Determination of Right to Indemnification (a) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Indemnifiable Claim 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 Indemnifiable Losses relating to, arising out of or resulting from such Indemnifiable Claim in accordance with Section 2 and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 7(b)) shall be required.
Liability Indemnification Controlled Affiliate and Plan hereby agree to save, defend, indemnify and hold BCBSA harmless from and against all claims, damages, liabilities and costs of every kind, nature and description (except those arising solely as a result of BCBSA's negligence) that may arise as a result of or related to Controlled Affiliate's rendering of services under the Licensed Marks and Name.
SURVIVAL; RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION NOT AFFECTED BY KNOWLEDGE All representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations in this Agreement, the Disclosure Letter, the supplements to the Disclosure Letter, the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(v), and any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing. The right to indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations 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 execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation. 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 obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Damages, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations.
