Exception to Right of Indemnification Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:
Enforcement of Indemnification Rights If the Reviewing Party determines that the Indemnitee substantively would not be permitted to be indemnified in whole or in part under applicable law, or if the Indemnitee has not otherwise been paid in full pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 above within 30 days after a written demand has been received by the Company, the Indemnitee shall have the right to commence litigation in any court in the State of Delaware having subject matter jurisdiction thereof and in which venue is proper to recover the unpaid amount of the demand (an “Enforcement Proceeding”) and, if successful in whole or in part, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid any and all Expenses in connection with such Enforcement Proceeding. The Company hereby consents to service of process for such Enforcement Proceeding and to appear in any such Enforcement Proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party otherwise shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Indemnitee.
Payment of Indemnification If, in regard to any Losses:
Exceptions to Right of Indemnification Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as set forth in Paragraph 10, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, the Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.
Review of Indemnification Obligations (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Reviewing Party shall have determined (in a written opinion, in any case in which Independent Legal Counsel is the Reviewing Party) that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, exonerated or held harmless hereunder under applicable law, (A) the Company shall have no further obligation under Section 2(a) to make any payments to Indemnitee not made prior to such determination by such Reviewing Party and (B) the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for all Expenses theretofore paid in indemnifying, exonerating or holding harmless Indemnitee (within thirty (30) days after such determination); provided, however, that if Indemnitee has commenced or thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified, exonerated or held harmless hereunder under applicable law, any determination made by any Reviewing Party that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder under applicable law shall not be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expenses theretofore paid in indemnifying, exonerating or holding harmless Indemnitee until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed). Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company for any Expenses shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon.

Notice of Indemnification Claim Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying parties. An indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 5, but the omission to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 5. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
Seller’s Indemnification Obligations Seller shall, on the date of Closing, agree (and, upon delivery to Purchaser of the Assignments, shall be deemed to have agreed), subject to the limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9, following the Closing, to indemnify and hold Purchaser, its Affiliates and its and their respective successors and permitted assigns and all of their respective stockholders, partners, members, managers, directors, officer, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all claims, obligations, actions, liabilities, damages or expenses (collectively, “Purchaser’s Losses”) incurred, suffered, paid by or resulting to any of the Purchaser Indemnitees and which results from, arises out of or in connection with, is based upon, or exists by reason of: (a) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement (in each case without regard to materiality or any qualification as to Material Adverse Effect), (b) Seller’s non-compliance with Applicable Laws or agreements in respect of the Properties prior to the Closing, (c) all Property Costs incurred prior to the Effective Date (including with regard to joint interest xxxxxxxx by Seller and any participating party’s payments in respect thereof), (d) all costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser associated with the plugging and abandoning of each Abandoned Well pursuant to Section 7.13 or (e) the Excluded Assets; REGARDLESS OF THE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT OR RESPONSIBILITY OF PURCHASER, ANY OTHER PURCHASER INDEMNITEE, SELLER OR ANY OTHER PERSON. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the maximum liability of Seller under the indemnity provisions of Article 9 or under any other provisions of this Agreement, in either case for a breach of any representation or warranty other than the Seller Transaction Representations and Section 4.1(i), shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price and (ii) Seller shall have no liability under the indemnity provisions of this Section 9.5 by reason of any breach of any representation or warranty (other than the Seller Transaction Representations and Section 4.1(i)) until and unless the aggregate amount of the liability for all Purchaser Losses associated therewith exceeds ONE MILLION Dollars ($1,000,000), in which event Seller shall be liable for the amount of all Purchaser Losses, but in no event to exceed ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price. Seller agrees that any amounts owing to Purchaser under this Agreement may be set off against and withheld from any amounts owing to Seller in respect of its interest under the Farmout Agreement.
