Exculpation and Indemnification of Escrow Agent 9.1. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth herein. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any obligation of any person to make any payment or delivery, or to direct or cause any payment or delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation of any person to perform any other act. The Escrow Agent shall be under no liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else by reason of any failure on the part of any party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other signatory of any document or any other person to perform such person's obligations under such document. Except for amendments to this Agreement referred to below, and except for instructions given to the Escrow Agent by the Company and the subscribers relating to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall not be obligated to recognize any agreement between any and all of the persons referred to herein, notwithstanding that references thereto may be made herein and whether or not it has knowledge thereof.
9.2. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Company or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment. The Escrow Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained), which is believed by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Escrow Agreement or any of the terms thereof, unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent, as applicable, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto.
9.3. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy of the form of, or the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any document or property received, held or delivered by it hereunder, or of any signature or endorsement thereon, or for any lack of endorsement thereon, or for any description therein, nor shall the Escrow Agent be responsible or liable to the other parties hereto or to anyone else in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any document or property pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Except as specifically provided for herein, the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the use or application of any funds or other property paid or delivered by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Company or to anyone else for any loss which may be incurred by reason of any investment of any monies which it holds hereunder provided the Escrow Agent, as applicable, has complied with the provisions of Section 2 hereunder.
9.4. The Escrow Agent shall have the right to assume in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the proper person or persons that a fact or an event by reason of which an action would or might be taken by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, does not exist or has not occurred, without incurring liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, in reliance upon such assumption.
9.5. To the extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the investment of funds held hereunder or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, may pay such taxes. The Escrow Agent, as applicable, may withhold from any payment of monies held by it hereunder such amount as the Escrow Agent, as applicable, estimates to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such taxes not yet paid, and may use the sum withheld for that purpose. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless against any liability for taxes and for any penalties or interest in respect of taxes, on such investment income or payments in the manner provided in Section 9.6.
9.6. The Escrow Agent will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand, which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Escrow Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, hereunder, the monies or other property held by it hereunder or any income earned from investment of such monies; provided, that such expenses or loss are not as a result of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, acting, or omitting to take action, in bad faith or with willful misconduct or gross negligence promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company, notify the Company thereof in writing, but the failure by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, to give such notice shall not relieve the Company from any liability which the Company may have to the Escrow Agent hereunder. For the purposes hereof, the term "expense or loss" shall include all amounts paid or payable to satisfy any claim, demand or liability, or in settlement of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding settled with the express written consent of the Escrow Agent, and all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, paid or incurred in investigating or defending against any such claims, demand, action, suit or proceeding.

The total payments made by Parent, LuxCo or BHN to Sellers Indemnitees with respect to Losses shall not exceed the Indemnifiable Loss Limit; provided, however, Sellers Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.2 unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses to Sellers Indemnitees equals at least the Basket, at which time, subject to the Indemnifiable Loss Limit, the Sellers Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the total amount of such Losses. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 10.2, any Losses incurred by any Sellers Indemnitee arising out of the failure of Parent, LuxCo or BHN to perform any covenant or obligation to be performed by it at or after the Closing Date including payment of the Purchase Price, shall not be subject to or applied against the Indemnifiable Loss Limit or the Basket, respectively.
Indemnification for Taxes (a) Seller Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company (each herein sometimes referred to as an “Indemnified Taxpayer”), against, and protect, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Taxpayer from, any and all Damages directly resulting from:
(i) any Taxes of the Company allocable to any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or, as provided in Section 7.3(b), allocable to the pre-Closing portion of any period that begins on or before and ends after the Closing Date;
(ii) any Taxes of any other Person imposed on the Company (or Buyer as a result of the Company being a disregarded entity post-Closing) (A) as a result of any written Tax sharing or Tax allocation agreement in effect on or prior to the Closing Date, (B) as a transferee or successor, or otherwise under applicable Legal Requirements (which Taxes described in this clause (B) relate to an event or transaction occurring on or prior to the Closing Date), or (C) by reason of being a member, partner or similar owner of an equity interest in a partnership, limited liability company or other entity classified as a partnership pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Legal Requirements;
(iii) the portion of any Transfer Taxes that are the responsibility of Sellers pursuant to Section 7.2(d); or
(iv) any breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement relating to Taxes or Tax Returns.
(i) If a written claim is made by any Tax Authority that, if successful, would result in the indemnification of an Indemnified Taxpayer, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall promptly notify Seller Representative in writing of such fact; provided that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Taxpayer except to the extent the rights of the indemnifying party are actually materially prejudiced.
(ii) Seller Representative shall have the right to defend against any claim under subsection (b)(i) at Sellers’ expense and with counsel of Seller Representative’s choice so long as (A) Buyer is kept reasonably informed of the status and progress of such claim and related proceedings, (B) Buyer and Bxxxx’s counsel are allowed to participate at Bxxxx’s expense in such claim and related proceedings, (C) Seller Representative’s counsel with respect to such claim is approved by Buyer in its reasonable discretion and Seller Representative conducts the defense of the claim actively and diligently, and (D) if the applicable Indemnified Taxpayer is requested to pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund, and if so requested by Bxxxx, Sellers shall have advanced to such Indemnified Taxpayer, on an interest free basis, the full amount such Indemnified Taxpayer is requested to pay. If any of the conditions in clauses (A) through (D) above is or becomes unsatisfied, then (x) Buyer and the applicable Indemnified Taxpayer may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and neither Buyer nor any Indemnified Taxpayer need consult with, or obtain any consent from, Sellers or Seller Representative in connection therewith), (y) Sellers will reimburse Buyer and the Indemnified Taxpayer promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the claim (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees and disbursements) and (z) Sellers will remain responsible for any Damages Buyer or any other Indemnified Taxpayer may suffer to the fullest extent provided in this Section 7.2.
(iii) Seller Representative shall not be entitled to settle or to contest any claim relating to Taxes without the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if, in the good faith judgment of Buyer, the settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the claim would reasonably be expected to adversely affect any Indemnified Taxpayer.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties under this Article VI shall survive the Closing until sixty (60) days following the end of the applicable statutes of limitations. With respect to any indemnification obligation for any Tax for which a Tax Authority asserts a claim within ninety (90) days before the end of the applicable statute of limitations, an Indemnified Taxpayer shall be treated as having provided timely notice to such Seller Party by providing written notice to Seller Representative on or before the ninetieth (90th) day after the Indemnified Taxpayer’s receipt of a written assertion of the claim by the Tax Authority.
(d) Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall divide evenly the financial responsibility for all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”), and Seller Representative will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and, if required by applicable Legal Requirements, Buyer will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.
