Release Indemnification (a) In further consideration of the execution of this Amendment by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, each Loan Party, individually and on behalf of its successors (including any trustees acting on behalf of such Loan Party and any debtor in possession with respect to such Loan Party), assigns, Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby forever releases each Agent and Xxxxxx and their respective successors, assigns, parents, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, officers, employees, directors, agents and attorneys (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all debts, claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, causes, damages, actions and causes of actions (whether at law or in equity) and obligations of every nature whatsoever, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether known or unknown, whether matured or unmatured, whether fixed or contingent that such Releasor has, had or may have against the Releasees, or any of them, which arise from or relate to any actions which the Releasees, or any of them, have or may have taken or omitted to take in connection with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents prior to the date hereof, including with respect to the Obligations, any Collateral, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document and any third party liable in whole or in part for the Obligations. This provision shall survive and continue in full force and effect whether or not each Loan Party shall satisfy all other provisions of this Amendment or the other Loan Documents, including payment in full of all Obligations. Each Releasor understands, acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.
(b) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Loan Party’s obligations under this Amendment shall include an obligation to indemnify and hold the Releasees harmless with respect to any indemnified liabilities in any manner relating to or arising out of the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, performance, administration and enforcement of this Amendment to the extent required by Section 11.04(b) of the Credit Agreement.
Indemnification Escrow (a) The Escrow Deposit Amount, or from and after the Closing the Remaining Escrow Deposit Amount, shall (subject to the terms and conditions of Article 6) serve as and be the sole and exclusive source for payment of claims for indemnification by any Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to Article 6. The Escrow Letter of Credit, which shall be provided at the Closing by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent in respect of the Escrow Deposit Amount, shall be held by the Escrow Agent in an account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”).
(b) On the date which is twelve (12) months following the Closing, the Escrow Agent shall pay and disburse to the Partnership, via a draw on the funds available under the Escrow Letter of Credit, the Initial Indemnity Release Amount calculated in accordance with Section 2.13, and the amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit and the aggregate principal amount of the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be reduced to reflect the foregoing draw and payment.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Escrow Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Partnership is entitled, pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, to funds to be drawn from the Escrow Letter of Credit and the Escrow Agent is not able to draw all or any part of such funds from the Escrow Letter of Credit after receiving a notice (formatted as a joint written instruction) directing it to draw and release such funds, whether due to the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, technical draw issues or otherwise, then, and in any such event, Purchaser shall deliver to the Partnership, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, not later than three (3) business days (with time of the essence) after a written request therefor from the Partnership, the amount of funds to which the Partnership is entitled or, if less than such amount, the remaining amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit, and the amount available to be drawn thereafter under the Escrow Letter of Credit (if not already equal to Zero) shall be reduced by the amount of such wire transfer. Without limiting the forgoing, any inability of the Escrow Agent to draw upon the Escrow Letter of Credit for any amount that is properly payable to the Partnership from the Escrow Letter of Credit or the Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement shall not relieve the Purchaser from its obligation to have made or to make such payment to the Partnership, and the Purchaser shall effect such payment by wire transfer in accordance with the preceding sentence.
(d) If either Purchaser or the Partnership anticipates that there will be any funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit as of the expiration date of the Escrow Letter of Credit (the “Escrow L/C Expiration”), then Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain and deliver to the Escrow Agent, at least three (3) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, a replacement clean, irrevocable and unconditional standby letter of credit in the aggregate face amount equal to the amount of funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit (i) in substantially the same form as the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other form as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and the Escrow Agent and (ii) from the then-current lender under the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other lender as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership (the “Replacement Letter of Credit”). The Escrow Agreement shall provide that if the Escrow Agent has not received a Replacement Letter of Credit from Purchaser and written notice from the Partnership that the Replacement Letter of Credit satisfies the requirements of this Section 2.12(d) at least six (6) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, then prior to the close of business on the third (3rd) business day prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration (with time of the essence), the Escrow Agent shall draw all funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit and hold such funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account for release pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement (a “Full Draw Event”). Following the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, all references in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement to the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be deemed to refer to the Replacement Letter of Credit (and any subsequent replacement standby letter of credit that complies with this Section 2.12(d)), and this Section 2.12(d) shall apply to the Replacement Letter of Credit mutatis mutandis.
(e) The Parties agree that the Escrow Agreement shall treat the Escrow Letter of Credit and any funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Account as owned by the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Landlord’s Indemnification Landlord shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Tenant from and against any and all claims arising out of any activity, work or things done, or permitted by Landlord in or about the Common Areas of the Building or the Common Areas of the Project and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Tenant from and against all costs, reasonable attorney’s fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon.

Indemnity Escrow (i) At or prior to the Closing, Pubco, the Seller Representative and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or such other escrow agent mutually acceptable to Purchaser and the Company), as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall enter into an Escrow Agreement, effective as of the Effective Time, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and the Company (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Pubco shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent a number of Class B Exchange Shares (each valued at the Redemption Price) equal to (x) fifteen percent (15%) of the estimated Exchange Consideration, divided by (y) the Redemption Price otherwise issuable to the Sellers at the Closing based on the Estimated Closing Statement (such Class B Exchange Shares, together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which such shares are exchanged or converted, in each case, as long as they remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account, the “Indemnity Escrow Shares”) to be held, along with any other dividends, distributions or other income on the Indemnity Escrow Shares, in each case, as long as they remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account (together with the Indemnity Escrow Shares, the “Indemnity Escrow Property”), in a segregated escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) and disbursed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The portion of the Class B Exchange Shares that shall be withheld at the Closing for deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account, and any disbursement from the Indemnity Escrow Account to Pubco, shall be allocated between the Class B Sellers based on each such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves). The Indemnity Escrow Shares shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of payment of the obligations of the Sellers under Section 2.5(d) and the obligations of the Indemnitors pursuant to Article IX (other than with respect to (A) Fraud Claims or (B) any indemnification claims for breach of any Company and Seller Fundamental Representations, for which the Main Seller shall be solely responsible). Unless otherwise required by Law, all distributions made from the Indemnity Escrow Account shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Exchange Consideration received by the Sellers pursuant to Article II hereof. Each Class B Seller shall be deemed to be the owner of such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of the Indemnity Escrow Shares during the time such Indemnity Escrow Shares are held in the Indemnity Escrow Account, subject to the retention of any dividends, distributions and other earnings thereon in the Indemnity Escrow Account until disbursed therefrom in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Each Class B Seller shall have the right to vote such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of the Indemnity Escrow Shares (together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which such shares are exchanged or converted) during the time held in the Indemnity Escrow Account as Indemnity Escrow Shares.
(ii) (A) Within three (3) Business Days after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (such anniversary, the “First Escrow Release Date”), the Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall give joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent directing the release of the First Released Escrow Property (if any) to the Class B Sellers; (B) within three (3) Business Days after the twenty-four (24) month anniversary (such anniversary, the “Expiration Date”), the Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall give joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent directing the release of all remaining Indemnity Escrow Property (if any) to the Class B Sellers; and (C) the Indemnity Escrow Property shall not be subject to any indemnification claim to the extent such claim is made after the Expiration Date; provided, however, with respect to any indemnification claim made in accordance with Article IX hereof on or prior to the Expiration Date that remains unresolved at the time and are still contested by an Indemnitee in good faith as of the Expiration Date (any such claim, a “Pending Claim”), an amount of the Indemnity Escrow Property with a value (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price as of the Expiration Date) equal to the aggregate amount of the Pending Claims set forth in the Claim Notice provided by the Purchaser Representative in accordance with Section 9.4 (as adjusted in accordance with Section 9.4(b)) shall remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account until such time as such Pending Claim shall have been finally resolved and paid pursuant to the provisions of Article IX. After the Expiration Date, to the extent that the value of the remaining Indemnity Escrow Property (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price) exceeds the aggregate amount of (a) resolved but unpaid claims in favor of an Indemnitee and (b) the Pending Claims set forth in the Claim Notice (as adjusted in accordance with Section 9.4(b)) submitted prior to the Expiration Date, an amount of Indemnity Escrow Property having a value (with respect to the Indemnity Escrow Shares, calculated based on the Pubco Share Price) equal to such excess shall be promptly (and no later than three (3) Business Days) disbursed by the Escrow Agent to the Class B Sellers (and Purchaser Representative and Seller Representatives shall promptly give joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing such release), with respect to each release of the Indemnity Escrow Property to the Class B Sellers, each such Seller shall receive such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of such Indemnity Escrow Property. Promptly after the final resolution of all Pending Claims and payment of all indemnification obligations in connection therewith, the Escrow Agent shall transfer any Indemnity Escrow Property remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account to the Class B Sellers with each such Seller receiving such Seller’s relative Pro Rata Share (as between themselves) of such Indemnity Escrow Property.
Indemnity by Tenant To the extent permitted by Law, Tenant hereby indemnifies, and agrees to protect, defend and hold the Indemnitees harmless, against any and all actions, claims, demands, liability, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for the defense thereof, arising from Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, from the undertaking of any Tenant Additions or repairs to the Premises, from the conduct of Tenant’s business on the Premises, or from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Tenant to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Lease, or from any willful act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, contractors, servants, employees, customers or invitees, in or about the Premises or the Property or any part of either. In case of any action or proceeding brought against the Indemnitees by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant covenants to defend such action or proceeding by counsel chosen by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord reserves the right to settle, compromise or dispose of any and all actions, claims and demands related to the foregoing indemnity. The foregoing indemnity shall not operate to relieve Indemnitees of liability to the extent such liability is caused by the willful and wrongful act of Indemnitees. Further, the foregoing indemnity is subject to and shall not diminish any waivers in effect in accordance with Section 16.04 by Landlord or its insurers to the extent of amounts, if any, paid to Landlord under its “All-Risks” property insurance.
Tenant Indemnification Tenant agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, its members, managers, Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents and employees (the “Landlord Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all foreseeable or unforeseeable liability, expense, loss, cost, deficiency, fine, penalty or damage (including consequential or punitive damages) of any kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, from any third party suits, claims or demands, on account of any matter or thing, action or failure to act arising out of or in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Facility in accordance with this Lease, the Premises (arising after the Commencement Date) or the operations of Tenant on any portion of the Premises, including, without limitation, (a) the breach by Tenant of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other obligations hereunder, (b) any Protest, (c) all Environmental Activities on any portion of the Premises by Tenant, Hazardous Materials Claims caused by Tenant or violations by Tenant of a Hazardous Materials Law with respect to any portion of the Premises (which occurred on or after the Commencement Date), and (d) upon or following the Termination Date, the correction of all deficiencies of a physical matter identified by and any liability assessed or asserted by, any governmental agency or Medicare or Medicaid providers as a result of or arising out or in connection with this Lease or the related change in ownership inspection and audit (including any overpayment to any Medicare, Medicaid or other third party payor). Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties with counsel acceptable to Landlord and shall not, under any circumstances, compromise or otherwise dispose of any suit, action or proceeding without obtaining Landlord’s written consent. Landlord, at its election and sole cost and expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any claim for which Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties are indemnified hereunder. If Tenant does not act promptly and completely to satisfy its obligations hereunder, Landlord may resist and defend any such claims or causes of action against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Party at Tenant’s sole cost.
