Indemnification by Lessee Lessee agrees to indemnify, defend, protect, save and keep harmless Lessor and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, unitholders, members, partners, managers, agents, employees, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Lessor Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Lessor Indemnified Parties, in any way and to the extent relating to or arising out of (a) any failure to perform any covenant or agreement made or undertaken by Lessee in this Lease, or (b) the exercise of Lessee’s Parties’ rights under Section 2.2(a); provided, however, Lessee shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Lessor Indemnified Parties for any such Claim under clauses (a) or (b) to the extent resulting from or arising out of the willful misconduct or negligence of any of the Lessor Indemnified Parties. To the extent that the Lessor Indemnified Parties in fact receive full indemnification payments from Lessee under the indemnification provisions of this Section 10.2, Lessee shall be subrogated to the Lessor Indemnified Parties’ rights with respect to the transaction or event requiring or giving rise to such indemnity. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSEE BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR OTHER BUSINESS INTERRUPTION DAMAGES IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE UNDER OR ON ACCOUNT OF THIS LEASE, EXCEPT THOSE PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES FOR WHICH LESSEE WOULD BE LIABLE UNDER THIS SECTION.
Landlord Exculpation The liability of Landlord or the Landlord Parties to Tenant for any default by Landlord under this Lease or arising in connection herewith or with Landlord’s operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration or any other matter relating to the Project or the Premises shall be limited solely and exclusively to an amount which is equal to the lesser of (a) the interest of Landlord in the Project or (b) the equity interest Landlord would have in the Project if the Project were encumbered by third-party debt in an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the value of the Project (as such value is determined by Landlord), including any rental, condemnation, sales and insurance proceeds received by Landlord or the Landlord Parties in connection with the Project, Building or Premises. No Landlord Parties (other than Landlord) shall have any personal liability therefor, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant. The limitations of liability contained in this Section 29.13 shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s and the Landlord Parties’ present and future partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, agents and employees, and their respective partners, heirs, successors and assigns. Under no circumstances shall any present or future partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a partnership), or trustee or beneficiary (if Landlord or any partner of Landlord is a trust), have any liability for the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, neither Landlord nor the Landlord Parties shall be liable under any circumstances for injury or damage to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including but not limited to, loss of profits, loss of rents or other revenues, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of use, in each case, however occurring, or loss to inventory, scientific research, scientific experiments, laboratory animals, products, specimens, samples, and/or scientific, business, accounting and other records of every kind and description kept at the premises and any and all income derived or derivable therefrom.
Indemnification by Landlord Landlord shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Tenant, its agents, employees and contractors harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, demands, penalties, costs, liabilities, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses at the trial and appellate levels) to the extent arising out of or relating to any act, omission, negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or contractors. Nothing contained in this Section 8.03 shall limit (or be deemed to limit) the waivers contained in Section 8.06 below. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of Section 8.06 below and this Section 8.03, the provisions of Section 8.06 shall prevail. This Section 8.03 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Right of Contest Borrower may contest in good faith any claim, demand, levy, or assessment the assertion of which would constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Any such contest is to be prosecuted diligently and in a manner unprejudicial to the County or the rights of the County hereunder.
Landlord’s Right to Perform Tenant’s Covenants Tenant covenants and agrees that, if it shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed as in this Lease provided, then Landlord, in its sole discretion may after due notice to, or demand upon, Tenant and subject to the limitations set forth below, make any payment or perform any other act on the part of Tenant to be made and performed as in this Lease provided, in such manner and to such extent as Landlord may reasonably deem desirable, and in exercising any such rights, Landlord may pay necessary and incidental costs and expenses, employ counsel, and incur and pay reasonable attorneys’ fees. The making of any such payment or the performing of any other act by Landlord pursuant to this Article shall not waive, or release Tenant from, any obligations of Tenant in this Lease contained. All sums so paid by Landlord and all reasonably necessary and incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord shall, except as otherwise in this Lease expressly provided, be payable to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay any such sum or sums promptly, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of the Base Rent. Whenever practicable, Landlord, before proceeding as provided in this Section 12.4, shall give Tenant notice in writing of the failure of Tenant which Landlord proposes to remedy, and shall allow Tenant such length of time as may be reasonable in the circumstances, consistent with any grace periods contained herein, but not exceeding 30 days from the giving of notice, to remedy the failure itself and, if Tenant shall not remedy the failure in the time so allowed, Landlord shall be deemed to have given “due notice” and may proceed as provided in this Section 12.4; provided that nothing in this Section shall prevent Landlord from acting without notice to Tenant in case of any emergency wherein there is danger to property or person or where there may exist any violation of legal requirements including but not limited to the presence of Hazardous Materials, in which event no notice shall be required.
Right to Contest Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted diligently and in good faith, the amount or validity of any Imposition other than Insurance premiums and Ground Rent (if applicable), if: (i) Borrower notifies Lender of the commencement or expected commencement of such proceedings, (ii) the Mortgaged Property is not in danger of being sold or forfeited, (iii) if Borrower has not already paid the Imposition, Borrower deposits with Lender reserves sufficient to pay the contested Imposition, if requested by Lender, and (iv) Borrower furnishes whatever additional security is required in the proceedings or is reasonably requested by Lender, which may include the delivery to Lender of reserves established by Borrower to pay the contested Imposition.
Right to Contest and Defend The indemnifying party shall be entitled at its cost and expense to contest and defend by all appropriate legal proceedings any Indemnity Claim with respect to which it is called upon to indemnify the indemnified party under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that notice of the intention to so contest shall be delivered by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party within 20 days from the date of receipt by the indemnifying party of notice by the indemnified party of the assertion of the Indemnity Claim. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of the indemnifying party or the indemnified party as may be appropriate. Such contest shall be conducted and prosecuted diligently to a final conclusion or settled in accordance with this Section 7.4 by reputable counsel employed by the indemnifying party and not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party, but the indemnified party shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by counsel of its own choosing at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto; provided, however, that the indemnifying party will not have the authority to subject the indemnified party to any obligation whatsoever, other than the performance of purely ministerial tasks or obligations not involving material expense. If the indemnifying party does not elect to contest any such Indemnity Claim or elects to contest such Indemnity Claim but fails diligently and promptly to prosecute or settle such claim, the indemnifying party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party shall have assumed the defense of an Indemnity Claim, the indemnified party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of an Indemnity Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Indemnity Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with such Indemnity Claim and which would not otherwise adversely affect the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Indemnity Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the indemnified party in defending such Indemnity Claim) if the Indemnity Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the indemnified party which the indemnified party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Indemnity Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages.
Indemnification by Tenant Except to the extent caused by the sole negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Indemnified Landlord Parties, Tenant shall defend, indemnify and save harmless Landlord and Landlord’s trustees, and their respective officers, managers, agents directors, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Landlord Parties”) against all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements), damages, liabilities, losses, suits or claims (collectively, “Claims”), for bodily or personal injury or property damage occurring during the Term on the Property caused by Tenant or its officers, managers, agents, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, invitees, visitors or contractors, and shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify and save harmless Landlord and the other Indemnified Landlord Parties against all Claims brought against Landlord and/or the other Indemnified Landlord Parties, for which Tenant is responsible for indemnification hereunder, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord or any Indemnified Landlord Party (at its option, but without being obligated to do so) may, at the reasonable cost and expense to Tenant and upon notice to Tenant in the manner set forth in Section 18, defend such Claims and Tenant shall pay and discharge any and all judgments, costs, liabilities, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements, that arise therefrom. In no event shall Tenant be liable to Landlord or any Indemnified Landlord Party under this Lease or at law or in equity for punitive damages.
Landlord Indemnification With respect to only those Hazardous Substances present on, in or under the Industrial Center as of the date of this Lease (the “Existing Hazardous Substances”), Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant) and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities, losses, suits, administrative proceedings and costs (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ and consultant fees and court costs), arising at any time during or after the Term of this Lease, to the extent arising from (1) any of the Existing Hazardous Substances and/or (2) the removal, investigation, monitoring or remediation of any of the Existing Hazardous Substances; provided, however, Landlord shall not indemnify, defend or hold Tenant harmless to the extent (x) Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities contributes to or has contributed to the presence of such Existing Hazardous Substances or Tenant and/or any of the Tenant Entities exacerbates the conditions caused by such Existing Hazardous Substances, or (y) Tenant and/or any of the Tenant Entities allows or permits persons over which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities has control and/or for which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities are legally responsible for, to cause such Existing Hazardous Substances to be present in, on, under, through or about any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Industrial Center, or does not take all reasonably appropriate actions to prevent such persons over which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities has control and/or for which Tenant or any of the Tenant Entities are legally responsible from causing the presence of Existing Hazardous Substances in, on, under, through or about any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Industrial Center. Landlord’s obligations under this Paragraph 6.8 shall survive the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease.
