(c) The Borrower shall pay, and hold the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against, any and all present and future stamp, documentary, and other similar taxes with respect to this Agreement and any other Credit Documents, any collateral described therein, or any payments due thereunder, and save the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof.
(f) All amounts due under this Section 9.3 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

(i) Agents for all of their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, but limited to in the case of counsel, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary legal counsel for Lenders and Agents selected by Administrative Agent and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction reasonably deemed necessary by Agents and any “ClearPar” costs and expenses) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the extension and syndication of credit (including the Loans and Commitments) hereunder and (2) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any modification, supplement, amendment or waiver of any of the terms of any Credit Document (whether or not consummated or effective) requested by the Credit Parties;
(ii) each Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Agent or Lender (provided that any legal expenses shall be limited to the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary legal counsel for Lenders and Agents selected by Administrative Agent and of one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction reasonably deemed necessary by Agents) (and solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Persons affected by such conflict inform Borrower in writing of the existence of an actual or perceived conflict of interest prior to retaining additional counsel, one additional of each such counsel for each group of similarly situated Secured Parties)) in connection with (1) any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from any Event of Default, including all manner of participation in or other involvement with (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings and (z) workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated), (2) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the enforcement of any Credit Document and (3) the enforcement of this Section 13.03; and
(iii) Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable but without duplication, for all reasonable and documented costs, expenses, assessments and other charges (including reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Credit Document or any other document referred to therein. Without limiting the rights of any Agent under this Section 13.03(a), each Agent, promptly after a request of Borrower from time to time, will advise Borrower of an estimate of any amount anticipated to be incurred by such Agent and reimbursed by Borrower under this Section 13.03(a).
(b) The Credit Parties, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, trustees, officers, employees, representatives, advisors, partners and agents (each, an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them directly or indirectly arising out of or by reason of or relating to the negotiation, execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of any Credit Document, any of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the Transactions), any breach by any Credit Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in any Credit Document in connection with any of the Transactions, the use or proposed use of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit, the issuance of or performance under any Letter of Credit or, the use of any collateral security for the Obligations (including the exercise by any Agent or Lender of the rights and remedies or any power of attorney with respect thereto or any action or inaction in respect thereof), including all amounts payable by any Lender pursuant to Section 12.08, but excluding (i) any such Losses relating to matters referred to in Sections 5.01 or 5.06 (which shall be the sole remedy in respect of matters referred to therein), (ii) any such Losses arising from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of any Credit Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Indemnified Persons (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) and (iii) any such Losses relating to any dispute between and among Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission by any Company (other than any claims against Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any other agent or bookrunner named on the cover page hereto or any L/C Lender, in each case, acting in such capacities or fulfilling such roles). For purposes of this Section 13.03(b), a “Related Indemnified Person” of an Indemnitee means (1) any controlling person or controlled affiliate of such Indemnitee, (2) the respective directors, officers, or employees of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates and (3) the respective agents of such Indemnitee or any of its controlling persons or controlled Affiliates, in the case of this clause (3), acting at the instructions of such Indemnitee, controlling person or such controlled Affiliate; provided that each reference to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person in this sentence pertains to a controlled Affiliate or controlling person involved in the performance of the Indemnitee’s obligations under the facilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each other Indemnitee from, and hold each Agent, each Lender and each other Indemnitee harmless against, any Losses incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them arising under any Environmental Law as a result of (i) the past, present or future operations of any Company (or any predecessor-in-interest to any Company), (ii) the past, present or future condition of any site or facility owned, operated, leased or used at any time by any Company (or any such predecessor-in-interest) to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties’ relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, or (iii) any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any such site or facility to the extent such Losses arise from or relate to the parties’ relationship under the Credit Documents or to any Company’s (or such predecessor-in-interest’s) (A) ownership, operation, lease or use of such site or facility or (B) any aspect of the respective business or operations of such parties, and, in each case shall include, without limitation, any and all such Losses for which any Company could be found liable, including any such Release or threatened Release that shall occur during any period when any Agent or Lender shall be in possession of any such site or facility following the exercise by such Agent or Lender, as the case may be, of any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under any of the Security Documents; provided, however, that the indemnity hereunder shall be subject to the exclusions from indemnification set forth in the preceding sentence. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 13.03 or any other provision of any Credit Document providing for indemnification is unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy or otherwise, the Credit Parties, jointly and severally, shall contribute the maximum portion that each of them is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by any of the Persons indemnified hereunder. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and the parties hereto hereby waive, any claim against any Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Credit Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth in this Section 13.03 (including the Credit Parties’ indemnity and reimbursement obligations to indemnify the Indemnitees for indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage that are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder). No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of any Credit Document by such Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Expenses Indemnification Procedure (a) Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding referenced in Section 1(a) or (b) hereof (but not amounts actually paid in settlement of any such action, suit or proceeding). Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee within thirty (30) days following delivery of a written request therefor by Indemnitee to the Company.
Costs and Expenses; Indemnification The Borrower agrees to pay on demand the reasonable costs and expenses of the Bank in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, and in connection with the recording or filing of any of the foregoing, and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and in connection with any consents hereunder or waivers or amendments hereto or thereto, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Bank with respect to all of the foregoing (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated). The Borrower further agrees to pay to the Bank or any other holder of the Obligations all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees), if any, incurred or paid by the Bank or any other holder of the Obligations in connection with any Default or Event of Default or in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or thereunder. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Bank, and any security trustee, and their respective directors, officers and employees, against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the indemnified Person is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan, other than those which arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party claiming indemnification. The Borrower, upon demand by the Bank at any time, shall reimburse the Bank for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing except if the same is directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Survival and Indemnification 8.1 All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by the parties hereto. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for the applicable statute of limitations period, and all representations, warranties and covenants to be made or performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing until made or performed and for the applicable statute of limitations period after their due date. The indemnity obligations of each party to this Agreement shall terminate (absent fraud or intentional misrepresentation) one year from the Closing Date. Any claim for indemnification that is asserted within one year of the Closing Date shall survive until resolved or judicially determined. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation, verification or examination by any party hereto or by anyone on behalf of any such party.
8.2.1 GLCP shall hold harmless and defend ITEC and its successors and assigns from and against any and all claims related to, caused by or arising from (a) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any covenant or agreement of GLCP set forth in this Agreement, or any other misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill a covenant or agreement by GLCP contained in any agreement or other document delivered pursuant hereto, or (b) any and all claims of third parties made based upon facts alleged that, if true, would have constituted such a misrepresentation, breach or failure.
8.2.2 ITEC shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend GLCP and its representatives, officers, members, managers, directors, affiliates, successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims related to, caused by or arising from (i) any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any covenant or agreement of ITEC contained herein or in any agreement or other document delivered pursuant hereto, or (ii) any and all claims of third parties made based upon facts alleged that, if true, would constitute such a misrepresentation, breach or failure.
8.3 The party seeking indemnification under this article (the "Indemnified Party") shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party (the "Indemnifying Party") of the facts and circumstances giving rise to any claim, provided, however, that an Indemnified Party's failure to give such notice shall not impair or otherwise affect such Indemnified Party's right to indemnification except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates actual damage caused by such failure. All rights contained in this article are cumulative and are in addition to all other rights and remedies, which are otherwise available, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or applicable law. All indemnification rights shall be deemed to apply in favor of the indemnified party's officers, directors, representatives, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns.
8.4 The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any claim by a third party for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless legal action shall have been instituted against the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall not have taken control of such suit within fifteen (15) days after notification thereof as provided herein. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnification hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim by a person other than the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such claim without prejudice to the right of the Indemnifying Party thereafter to contest its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect to the claims asserted therein. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel to conduct the defense in such claims and at its sole cost and expense shall take all steps necessary in the defense or settlement thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any claim, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the Indemnifying Party admits in writing its liability to hold the Indemnified Party harmless from and against any losses, damages, expenses and liabilities arising out of such settlement. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such action with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim resulting therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof, the Indemnified Party may defend such claim in such a manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such claim after giving notice of the same to the Indemnifying Party on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and in any action by the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the provisions of this article, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to question the manner in which the Indemnified Party defended such claim or the amount or nature of any such settlement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such action (including making a personal contact with the third party if deemed beneficial) and the relevant records of party shall be made available on a timely basis.
Exculpation; Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, whether express or implied, or any obligation or duty at law or in equity, neither the Sole Member, nor any officers, directors, stockholders, partners, employees, affiliates, representatives or agents of the Sole Member, or any manager, officer, employee, representative or agent of the Company (individually, a “Covered Person” and, collectively, the “Covered Persons”) shall be liable to the Company or any other person for any act or omission (in relation to the Company, its property or the conduct of its business or affairs, this Agreement, any related document or any transaction or investment contemplated hereby or thereby) taken or omitted by a Covered Person in the reasonable belief that such act or omission is in or is not contrary to the best interests of the Company and is within the scope of authority granted to such Covered Person by the Company, provided such act or omission does not constitute fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any and all civil, criminal, administrative or investigative losses, claims, demands, liabilities, expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (“Claims”), in which the Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its management of the affairs of the Company or which relates to or arises out of the Company or its property, business or affairs. A Covered Person shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 11 with respect to (i) any Claim with respect to which such Covered Person has engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) any Claim initiated by such Covered Person unless such Claim (or part thereof) (A) was brought to enforce such Covered Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder or (B) was authorized or consented to by the Board or the Sole Member. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Section 11.
Fees and Expenses; Indemnification (a) The Borrower will forthwith upon demand pay to the Agent:
(i) the amount of any taxes that the Agent may have been required to pay by reason of the Transaction Liens or to free any Collateral from any other Lien thereon;
(ii) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including transfer taxes and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and other experts, that the Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of the Security Documents, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Transaction Lien, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of any Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Agent of any of its rights or powers under the Security Documents;
(iii) the amount of any fees that the Borrower shall have agreed in writing to pay to the Agent and that shall have become due and payable in accordance with such written agreement; and
(iv) the amount required to indemnify the Agent for, or hold it harmless and defend it against, any loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and any experts or sub-agents appointed by it hereunder) incurred or suffered by the Agent in connection with the Security Documents, except to the extent that such loss, liability or expense arises from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or a breach of any duty that the Agent has under this Agreement (after giving effect to Sections 17 and 18). Any such amount not paid to the Agent on demand will bear interest for each day thereafter until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.
(b) If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in the Security Documents, the Borrower will pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Agent or as otherwise required by law.
Custodian’s Indemnification The Servicer as custodian shall indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Trust, the Owner Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody by the Servicer as custodian of the Receivable Files, including, but not limited to, the cost of defending any claim or bringing any claim to enforce such indemnification or other obligations of the Servicer; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable to the Owner Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Owner Trustee, and the Servicer shall not be liable to the Indenture Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee.
