Indemnification by the Shareholders The Shareholders severally (and not jointly) shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Purchaser Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees or to which any of the Purchaser Indemnitees may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with:
(a) any Breach by the Shareholders of any representation or warranty of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement;
(b) any Breach of any covenant of the Shareholders contained in this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement; and
(c) any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any Breach, alleged Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in clauses "(a)" or "(b)" above (including any Proceeding commenced by any Purchaser Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 6). The Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2 until the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages arising from any other Breaches of any representations or warranties pursuant to this Section 6.2 (and excluding any Damages arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below)) exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket Amount") (it being understood and agreed that the Basket Amount is intended as a deductible, and the Shareholders will not be liable for the first $100,000 of Damages for which the Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Basket Amount shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. Subject to Sections 6.3 and 7.14 below, all of the indemnification obligations of either of the Shareholders shall be satisfied exclusively by deduction from the Escrow Shares; provided, that, each Shareholder may elect, at its sole option, to satisfy such indemnification obligation in cash (the "Shareholder Cap"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Breach of any covenant (or any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any such failure or Breach) of the Shareholders contained in Sections 1.1, 1.2(b), 1.2(c), 1.4, 1.6, 4.1, 4.2(b), 6.1(e), 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 7.7, 7.8, 7.10 or 7.12 of this Agreement shall be satisfied exclusively by the payment in cash of the amount thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no limitation shall apply to (a) claims based on fraud or any claim in the nature of fraud or (b) claims arising pursuant to Section 6.3 below. For purposes of the indemnity obligations under Section 6, the value per share of Purchaser Series 1 Stock shall be deemed to be the Series 1 Value on the date of a written settlement agreement executed on behalf of the indemnifying party or parties or on the date of receipt of a final, non-appealable judgment issued by a court of competent jurisdiction; any indemnification obligation that may be satisfied by the surrender of Escrow Shares shall be satisfied by transfer of that number of Escrow Shares with a value (based on such Series 1 Value) equal to the amount of the indemnification obligation.
Covenants of the Sub-Adviser (a) If at any time during the term of this Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Sub-Adviser discovers any fact or omission, or any event or change of circumstances occurs, which would make the Sub-Adviser’s representations and warranties in Section 8 inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, or which might render the Disclosure Documents untrue or misleading in any material respect, the Sub-Adviser will provide prompt written notification to the Fund and MassMutual of any such fact, omission, event or change of circumstances, and the facts related thereto.
(b) The Sub-Adviser agrees that, during the term of this Sub-Advisory Agreement, and for so long as investment in the Fund is being offered for sale, it will provide the Fund and MassMutual with updated information relating to the Sub-Adviser’s performance results as reasonably required from time to time by the Fund and MassMutual.

(vii) any failure of the Servicer to comply with its covenants, obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
(b) If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable (other than pursuant to the exclusions contained in Section 12.02(a)) to any Servicer Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Servicer shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Servicer Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Servicer and its Affiliates on the one hand and such Servicer Indemnified Party on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Servicer and its Affiliates and such Servicer Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Servicer under this Section shall be in addition to (but without duplication of) any liability which the Servicer may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to Servicer Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Servicer and the Servicer Indemnified Parties.

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Custodian, the Deal Agent, the Liquidity Agent and each Purchaser and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by any Indemnified Person by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions of the Servicer, including, but not limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim, but excluding allocations of overhead expenses of any such Indemnified Party or other non-monetary damages of any such Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not indemnify an Indemnified Person if such loss, liability, expense, damage or injury results or arises (i) as a result of fraud, gross negligence or breach of fiduciary duty by such Indemnified Person; and (ii) under any Tax law, including without limitation any federal, state or local income or franchise taxes or any other Tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest or penalties with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) required to be paid by the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Custodian, the Deal Agent, the Liquidity Agent or the Purchasers in connection herewith to any taxing authority. The provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by an injured party subject to the limitations hereof. If the Servicer has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 8.1 and such payment fully indemnified the recipient thereof and the recipient thereafter collects any payments from others in respect of such Indemnified Amounts, the recipient shall repay to the Servicer an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such indemnified amounts. If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 6.19 is unavailable to the Indemnified Person or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless, then Servicer shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Person on the one hand and Servicer on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Person as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that the provisions of this Section 6.19 shall not be interpreted to provide recourse to the Seller against loss by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency (or other credit condition) of, or default by, related Obligor on, any Pool Asset. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section shall not be payable from the Assets. The obligations of the Servicer under this Section 6.19 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Deal Agent, the Liquidity Agent, the Backup Servicer or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.
