• Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance (a) Parent agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as provided in the respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Company Subsidiaries and any indemnification or other similar agreements of any of the Company Subsidiaries, in each case as in effect on the Closing Date, shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. From and after the Closing, Parent agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless each individual who is as of the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Closing, a director or officer of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or who is as of the date of this Agreement, or who thereafter commences prior to the Closing, serving at the request of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another Person (the “Company Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, inquiries, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing (including this Agreement and the transactions and actions contemplated hereby)), arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Company Indemnified Party is or was an officer or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as a director or officer of another Person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law. In the event of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, each Company Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding from Parent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by Parent from the Company Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, if and only to the extent required by the organizational documents of Parent, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication that such person is not entitled to indemnification. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any claim is brought against any Company Indemnified Party, (x) Parent shall have the right to assume or direct any of its Subsidiaries to assume the defense thereof with legal counsel of Parent’s choosing, and if Parent shall assume or direct any of its Subsidiaries to assume the defense, then Parent or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall not be liable to such Company Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that such Company Indemnified Party may employ counsel of its own choosing, and Parent or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall advance to such Company Indemnified Party reasonable legal expenses of such counsel, if (i) Parent does not timely assume the defense thereof or (ii) under applicable standards of professional conduct there is an actual or potential conflict of interest between the legal defenses for Parent (or the Subsidiary) and those for the Company Indemnified Party in the conduct of the defense of an action; (y) the Company Indemnified Party shall cooperate with Parent or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in the defense of any such matter; and (z) Parent or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim effected without its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

• Exculpation and Indemnification (a) No Protected Person shall be liable to the Company or any Manager or any other Member for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or by other Person with respect to the Company, including any negligent act or failure to act, except in the case of a liability resulting from such Protected Person’s own actual fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, breach of fiduciary duty, reckless disregard of duty or any intentional and material breach of this Agreement or conduct that is subject of a criminal proceeding (where such Protected Person has reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful). With the prior consent of the Board, any Protected Person may consult with legal counsel and accountants with respect to Company affairs (including interpretations of this Agreement) and shall be fully protected and justified in any action or inaction which is taken or omitted in good faith, in reliance upon and in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel or accountants. In determining whether a Protected Person acted with the requisite degree of care, such Protected Person shall be entitled to rely on written or oral reports, opinions, certificates and other statements of the directors, officers, employees, consultants, attorneys, accountants and professional advisors of the Company selected with reasonable care; provided that no such Protected Person may rely upon such statements if it believed that such statements were materially false.

• Insurance and Indemnification (a) In addition to any insurance which may be required under the Lease, Tenant shall secure, pay for and maintain or cause Tenant's Contractors to secure, pay for and maintain during the continuance of construction and fixturing work within the Building or Premises, insurance in the following minimum coverages and limits of liability:

• Waiver of Claims; Indemnification To the extent not prohibited by law, and excluding the negligence of Landlord, its employees, agents, servants, contractors, or invitees, Landlord and its officers, agents, servants and employees shall not be liable for any damage either to person or property or resulting from the loss of use thereof sustained by Tenant or by other persons due to the Building or any part thereof or any appurtenances thereof becoming out of repair, or due to the happening or any accident or event in or about the Building, or due to any act or neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building or of any other person. This provision shall apply particularly (but not exclusively) to damage caused by gas, electricity, snow, frost, steam, sewage, sewer gas or odors, fire, water or by the bursting or leaking of pipes, faucets, sprinklers, plumbing fixtures, and windows, and shall apply without distinction as to the person whose act or neglect was responsible for the damage and whether the damage was due to any of the causes specifically enumerated above or to some other cause of an entirely different kind. Tenant further agrees that all personal property upon the Premises, or upon-loading docks, receiving and holding areas, or freight elevators of the Building, shall be at the risk of Tenant only, and that Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage thereto or theft thereof. Without limitation of any other provisions thereof, Tenant agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and save harmless Landlord from and against all liability to third parties arising out of the acts of Tenant and its servants, agents, employees, contractors, suppliers, workmen and invitees. This Section shall be reciprocal in effect between Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord except the trustee agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and save harmless Tenant from and against all liability to third parties arising out of the acts of Landlord and its servants, agents, employees, contractors, suppliers, workmen and invitees. 14.

• Liability Exculpation and Indemnification Liability. Except as otherwise provided by the Act, all debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company (including, without limitation, under a judgment, decree or order of a court), whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Covered Person shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Covered Person. Exculpation. No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful breach of this Agreement.

• Directors and Officers Exculpation Indemnification and Insurance (a) From the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) years thereafter, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, as now or hereafter in effect: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each person who is at the date hereof, was previously, or during the period from the date hereof through the Effective Time will be, serving as a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and each Person who served as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise at the request of or for the benefit of any Company Group Member (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) in connection with any D&O Claim and any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) and out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and all other out-of-pocket costs relating to or resulting from such D&O Claim. In addition, from the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) years thereafter, each of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall advance costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) as incurred by any Covered Person in connection with any D&O Claim promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) after receipt by Parent of a written request for such advance to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined (after exhausting all available appeals) that such Person is not entitled to indemnification. Any Covered Person wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 6.7, upon learning of any claim, action or proceeding in respect of which such indemnification will be sought, shall notify Parent thereof in writing; provided, that the failure to so notify the Surviving Corporation shall not affect the indemnification obligations of the Surviving Corporation or Parent under this Section 6.7(a), except to the extent such failure to notify materially prejudices the Surviving Corporation or Parent. In the event of any such D&O Claim, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate with the Covered Person in the defense of any such D&O Claim. All rights to the indemnification and advancement conferred hereunder shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to be a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof and shall inure to the benefit of such Person’s heirs, successors, executors and personal and legal representatives.

• Indemnification Procedure for Claims of Third Parties Indemnification, with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by those not parties to this Contract (including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

• Hold Harmless and Indemnification Borrower agrees to indemnify Bank and to hold Bank harmless from, and to reimburse Bank on demand for, all losses and expenses which Bank sustains or incurs as a result of (i) any payment of a LIBOR Option Advance prior to the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period for any reason, including, without limitation, termination of the Note, whether pursuant to this Addendum or the occurrence of an Event of Default; (ii) any termination of a LIBOR Period prior to the date it would otherwise end in accordance with this Addendum; or (iii) any failure by Borrower, for any reason, to borrow any portion of a LIBOR Option Advance.

• Indemnification and Insurance (a) From and after the Effective Time, Acquiror agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the (x) Company and each of its Subsidiaries (in each case, solely to the extent acting in their capacity as such and to the extent such activities are related to the business of the Company being acquired under this Agreement) (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) and (y) Acquiror and each of its Subsidiaries (the “Acquiror Indemnified Parties” together with the Company Indemnified Parties, the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company, Acquiror or their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable Law and its respective certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, bylaws, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such D&O Indemnified Parties (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, Acquiror shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to (i) maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in its Governing Documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of Acquiror’s and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the Governing Documents of the Company, Acquiror or their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement, and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law. Acquiror shall assume, and be liable for, each of the covenants in this Section 7.8.

• Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation (a) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Charter, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement than would be afforded currently under the Charter, Bylaws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
