Payment of Expenses and Taxes (a) The Company agrees (i) to ----------------------------- pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and any other documents prepared in connection herewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby in such manner and in such amounts as shall be agreed to in writing by the Company and the Administrative Agent, (ii) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement, modification to, this Agreement and other documents prepared in connection herewith, and the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby and thereby, and (iii) to pay or reimburse each Bank and each Agent for all its out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and any such other documents, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel to each Agent and one counsel representing the Banks.
(b) The Borrowers agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each Bank against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (other than in connection with actions, suits and proceedings by any of the Banks against any of the other Banks), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject insofar as such losses, claims, damages and liabilities arise out of, relate to or are based on this Agreement (including the responsibilities, duties and obligations of the Banks hereunder and their agreement to make Loans hereunder) in connection with any acquisition or proposed acquisition of any securities or assets by a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and shall reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability, subject to the following paragraph. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability which either Borrower may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection 10.4(b) of written notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability in respect of which indemnity may be sought by it hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against the Borrowers, notify the Borrowers thereof in writing; but the omission so to notify the Borrowers will not relieve the Borrowers from any liability (otherwise than under this subsection 10.4) which they may have to any indemnified party except as may be required or provided otherwise than under this subsection 10.4. Thereafter, the indemnified party and the Borrowers shall consult, to the extent appropriate, with a view to minimizing the cost to the Borrowers of their obligations hereunder. In case any indemnified party receives written notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder by it and it notifies the Borrowers thereof, the Borrowers will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that they may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory at all times to such indemnified party; provided, however, that (i) -------- ------- if the parties against whom any loss, claim, damage or liability arises include both the indemnified party and a Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Borrower and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to a Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Borrower and may conflict therewith, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select one separate counsel for such indemnified party or parties to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such loss, claim, damage or liability on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and (ii) if any loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of actions brought by or for the benefit of a Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Borrower, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select their counsel and to assume and direct the defense thereof and neither Borrower shall be entitled to participate therein or assume the defense thereof. Upon receipt of notice from the Borrowers to such indemnified party of their election so to assume the defense of such loss, claim, damage or liability and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the Borrowers shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this subsection 10.4 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence, (ii) the Borrowers shall not have employed and continued to employ counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the Borrowers shall have authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the Borrowers.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this subsection 10.4, (i) the Borrowers shall not be liable for any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of any order adjudicating or otherwise disposing of any loss, claim, damage or liability effected without their consent and (ii) after the Borrowers have assumed the defense of any loss, claim, damage or liability under the preceding paragraph with respect to any Bank, they will not settle, compromise or consent to entry of any order adjudicating or otherwise disposing thereof (1) if such settlement, compromise or order involves the payment of money damages, except if the Borrowers agree with such Bank to pay such money damages, and, if not simultaneously paid, to furnish such Bank with satisfactory evidence of their ability to pay such money damages, and (2) if such settlement, compromise or order involves any relief against such Bank, other than the payment of money damages, except with the prior written consent of such Bank.
(e) The agreements in this subsection 10.4 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
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.
Advancement and Repayment of Expenses Subject to Section 4 hereof, the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in defending and investigating any Proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding within 30 days after receiving from Indemnitee the copies of invoices presented to Indemnitee for such Expenses, if Indemnitee shall provide an undertaking to the Company to repay such amount to the extent it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification. In determining whether or not to make an advance hereunder, the ability of Indemnitee to repay shall not be a factor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in a proceeding brought by the Company directly, in its own right (as distinguished from an action bought derivatively or by any receiver or trustee), the Company shall not be required to make the advances called for hereby if the Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, that it does not appear that Indemnitee has met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law to indemnify Indemnitee and the advancement of Expenses would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Payment of Expenses and Fees 3.1 The Corporation agrees to pay all costs and expenses incident to the Offering, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, including expenses, fees and taxes in connection with: (a) the registration fee, the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement (including without limitation financial statements, exhibits, schedules and consents), the Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements thereto, and the printing and furnishing of copies of each thereof to the Dealer Manager and to Selected Dealers (including costs of mailing and shipment); (b) the preparation, issuance and delivery of certificates, if any, for the Offered Shares, including any stock or other transfer taxes or duties payable upon the sale of the Offered Shares; (c) all fees and expenses of the Corporation’s legal counsel and the independent registered public accounting firm; (d) the qualification of the Offered Shares for offering and sale under state laws in the states, including the Qualified Jurisdictions, that the Corporation shall designate as appropriate and the determination of their eligibility for investment under state law as aforesaid and the printing and furnishing of copies of any blue sky surveys or legal investment surveys to the Dealer Manager; (e) filing for review by FINRA of all necessary documents and information relating to the Offering and the Offered Shares (including the reasonable legal fees and filing fees and other disbursements of counsel relating thereto); (f) the fees and expenses of any transfer agent or registrar for the Offered Shares and miscellaneous expenses referred to in the Registration Statement; (g) all costs and expenses incident to the travel and accommodation of the Corporation’s employees in making road show presentations with respect to the offering of the Offered Shares; and (h) the performance of the Corporation’s other obligations hereunder.
3.2 In addition, the Corporation shall reimburse the Dealer Manager for due diligence expenses of up to 0.5% of gross proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares for bona fide accountable due diligence expenses incurred by the Dealer Manager or any Selected Dealer. Such due diligence expenses may include travel, lodging, meals and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Dealer Manager or any Selected Dealer and their personnel when visiting the Corporation’s offices to verify information relating to the Corporation. The Dealer Manager or any Selected Dealer shall provide to the Corporation a detailed and itemized invoice for any such due diligence expenses.
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.
Advance Payment of Expenses To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Indemnitee in appearing at, participating in or defending any action, suit or proceeding or in connection with an enforcement action as contemplated by Section 3(e), shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding within 30 days after receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time. The Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay any amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled under this Agreement to be indemnified by the Company in respect thereof. No other form of undertaking shall be required of Indemnitee other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 2 shall be subject to Section 3(b) and shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section 6.
Repayment of Expenses 3.1. In the event that the Company provides or is required to provide indemnification with respect to Expenses hereunder and at any time thereafter the Company determines, based on advice from its legal counsel, that the Indemnitee was not entitled to such payments, the amounts so indemnified by the Company will be promptly repaid by Indemnitee, unless the Indemnitee disputes the Company’s determination, in which case the Indemnitee’s obligation to repay to the Company shall be postponed until such dispute is resolved.
3.2. Indemnitee’s obligation to repay to the Company for any Expenses or other sums paid hereunder shall be deemed as a loan given to Indemnitee by the Company subject to the minimum interest rate prescribed by Section 3(9) of the Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 1961, or any other legislation replacing it, which is not considered a taxable benefit.
Mandatory Payment of Expenses Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement other than Section 10 hereof, to the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, the dismissal of an action without prejudice, in defense of any Claim, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection therewith.
Advances of Expenses Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (other than Section 14(d)), the Company shall advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) not initiated by Indemnitee, and such advancement shall be made within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. In accordance with Section 14(d), advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. No other form of undertaking shall be required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 10 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section 9.
Right to Advancement of Expenses In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Section 7.1 of this Article 7, an indemnitee shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under Section 7.1 or otherwise.
