Advancement of Expenses and Costs All Expenses incurred by or on --------------------------------- behalf of Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee within three months) in connection with any Proceeding shall be paid promptly by the Company, and in any event in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding within sixty days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting from time to time such advance or advances, whether or not a determination to indemnify has been made under Section 9. Such statement or statements shall evidence such Expenses incurred (or reasonably expected to be incurred) by Indemnitee in connection therewith and shall include or be accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified therefor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The right to indemnification of advances as granted by this Section 8 shall be enforceable by the director or officer in any court of competent jurisdiction, if the Company denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no disposition thereof is made within 60 days. Such person's costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his/her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the Company. It shall be a defense to any such action seeking an adjudication or award in arbitration pursuant to this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of costs, charges and expenses under this Section 8 where the required undertaking, if any, has been received by the Company) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct set forth in the Nevada General Corporation Law, as the same exists or hereafter may be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment), but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company. Neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he/she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Nevada General Corporation Law, as the same exists or hereafter may be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights that said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment), nor the fact that there has been an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
Indemnification of Expenses The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law if Indemnitee was or is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or any hearing, inquiry or investigation that Indemnitee in good faith believes might lead to the institution of any such action, suit, proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other (hereinafter a "Claim") by reason of (or arising in part out of) any event or occurrence related to the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while serving in such capacity (hereinafter an "Indemnifiable Event") against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees and all other costs, expenses and obligations incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate in, any such action, suit, proceeding, alternative dispute resolution mechanism, hearing, inquiry or investigation), judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of such Claim and any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on the Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement (collectively, hereinafter "Expenses"), including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses. Such payment of Expenses shall be made by the Company as soon as practicable but in any event no later than thirty (30) days after written demand by Indemnitee therefor is presented to the Company.
Expenses and Indemnity (a) In connection with the Fiscal Agent’s appointment and duties under this Agreement and the Bonds, the Province will pay the Fiscal Agent compensation in an amount separately agreed upon by the Province and the Fiscal Agent, subject to the provisions of the Financial Administration Act (British Columbia). The Province will indemnify and hold harmless the Fiscal Agent against all claims, actions, demands, damages, costs, losses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Fiscal Agent by reason of, or in connection with, the Fiscal Agent’s appointment and duties as such, except as such result from any negligent act or omission, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Fiscal Agent or its directors, officers, employees or agents. In addition, the Province shall, pursuant to arrangements separately agreed upon by the Province and the Fiscal Agent, transfer to the Fiscal Agent, upon presentation of substantiating documentation satisfactory to the Province, amounts sufficient to reimburse the Fiscal Agent for certain out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with its services. The obligation of the Province under this subsection shall survive payment of the Bonds and resignation or removal of the Fiscal Agent.
(b) The Fiscal Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Province against all claims, actions, demands, damages, costs, losses and liabilities arising out of or relating to any negligent act or omission, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Fiscal Agent or its directors, officers, employees, or agents. The obligations of the Fiscal Agent under this subsection shall survive payment of the Bonds and resignation or removal of the Fiscal Agent.
(c) Each indemnified party shall give prompt notice to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement but failure to so notify any indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defence of such action. If it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, an indemnifying party may assume the defence of such action with legal advisors chosen by it and approved by the indemnified party defendant in such action, unless such indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the ground that there may be legal defences available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to such indemnifying party (in which case, the indemnified party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel), but an indemnifying party may not settle any action commenced against an indemnified party without the written consent of the indemnified party. In order to be entitled to an indemnity with respect to a claim hereunder, an indemnified party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnifying party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding). If any indemnifying party assumes the defence of any such action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any fees or expenses of the legal advisors of the indemnified party incurred thereafter in connection with such action. In no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one legal advisor for the indemnified party in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.
Payment of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification (a) Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each of the Agents and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Credit Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated or any such amendment, modification or waiver becomes effective), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lenders in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agents, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with the Credit Documents, including their rights under this subsection 11.5, or in connection with the Loans made, or Letters of Credit issued or drawn hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.
(b) The Credit Parties agree to indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each of their Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and controlled parties of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (and environmental consultants or professionals) for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Credit Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Lenders to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned, leased or otherwise operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any liability under Environmental Laws related in any way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence, breach of this Agreement or other Credit Documents or willful misconduct of such Indemnitees or (v) any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes (other than withholding taxes), if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, any Credit Document and any such other documents.
(c) To the extent that a Credit Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by them to an Agent or an Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection 11.5, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent or each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s or Revolving Credit Lender’s, as the case may be, pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s or Revolving Credit Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the aggregate amount of the total Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, at the time.
(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.
(e) All amounts due under this subsection 11.5 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
(f) The Credit Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Issuer for, and hold the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Issuing Lender harmless from and against, any and all claims for brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation made against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders for any broker, finder or consultant with respect to any agreement, arrangement or understanding made by or on behalf of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(g) The Credit Parties agree that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this subsection 11.5) or any other Credit Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations, (ii) survive the release of all or any portion of the Collateral and (iii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
Expenses and Indemnification (a) The Fund shall upon demand reimburse the Purchaser (to the extent that payments for the following items are not made under the other provisions hereof) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and costs of outside counsel, and reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking, and similar professional fees and charges) incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of rights under this Agreement, provided, however, that the Fund shall not be responsible for the Purchaser’s costs in connection with any subsequent offer and sale of the RVMTP Shares made by the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, in a manner not involving any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Fund shall not be responsible under this Section 7.3(a) for the fees and costs of more than one law firm in any one jurisdiction with respect to any one proceeding or set of related proceedings for the Purchaser, unless the Purchaser shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to them that are different from or additional to those available to the Fund.
(b) The Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each other Indemnified Person of the Purchaser from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel) which are related to or arise out of (A) any material misstatements or any material statements omitted to be made in the Offering Memorandum (including any documents incorporated by reference therein) or (B) any claim by any third party relating to the offering or sale of the RVMTP Shares by the Fund or the holding of the RVMTP Shares by the Purchaser (x) that the Purchaser aided and abetted a breach of a fiduciary duty by the Fund or any director or officer of the Fund or (y) arising from any act by the Fund or any director or officer of the Fund (excluding in any such case of either clauses (A) or (B), claims, losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).
(c) If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Person proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the indemnifying party with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure by such Indemnified Person to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligations hereunder (except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to promptly notify). The indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to counsel of its own choice to represent it, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the indemnifying party has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person in accordance with the preceding sentence or (ii) the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there exist actual or potential conflicting interests between the indemnifying party and such Indemnified Person, including situations in which one or more legal defenses may be available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations be liable for fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Persons of such other party; and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the indemnifying party and any counsel designated by the indemnifying party. Each party further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the other party (the consent of a party shall not be required to the extent such party is neither requesting indemnification nor being requested to provide indemnification), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each other Indemnified Person from all liability and obligations arising therefrom. The Fund further agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Fund arising out of or in connection with the proposed transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement except for such liability for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent they have resulted from an Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to the indemnifying party or any other person for consequential, special or punitive damages which may be alleged as a result of this Agreement.
(d) Nothing in this Section 7.3 is intended to limit either party’s obligations contained in other parts of this Agreement or the RVMTP Shares.
