Standard of Liability and Indemnity Subject to Section 2 hereof, DWR and its affiliates (as defined below) shall not be liable to the Customer, the General Partner or Limited Partners, or any of its or their respective successors or assigns, for any act, omission, conduct, or activity undertaken by or on behalf of the Customer pursuant to this Agreement which DWR determines, in good faith, to be in the best interests of the Customer, unless such act, omission, conduct, or activity by DWR or its affiliates constituted misconduct or negligence. The Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless DWR and its affiliates from and against any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses incurred in the defense of any demands, claims, or lawsuits) actually and reasonably incurred arising from any act, omission, conduct or activity undertaken by DWR on behalf of the Customer pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any demands, claims or lawsuits initiated by a Limited Partner (or assignee thereof), provided that (i) DWR has determined, in good faith, that the act, omission, conduct, or activity giving rise to the claim for indemnification was in the best interests of the Customer, and (ii) the act, omission, conduct, or activity that was the basis for such loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense was not the result of misconduct or negligence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, neither DWR nor any of its affiliates shall be indemnified by the Customer for any losses, liabilities, or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws unless (a) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee, or (b) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee, or (c) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made, provided, with regard to such court approval, the indemnitee must apprise the court of the position of the SEC, and the positions of the respective securities administrators of Massachusetts, Missouri, Tennessee and/or those other states and jurisdictions in which the plaintiffs claim they were offered or sold Units, with respect to indemnification for securities laws violations before seeking court approval for indemnification. Furthermore, in any action or proceeding brought by a Limited Partner in the right of the Customer to which DWR or any affiliate thereof is a party defendant, any such person shall be indemnified only to the extent and subject to the conditions specified in this Section 8. The Customer shall make advances to DWR or its affiliates hereunder only if: (i) the demand, claim, lawsuit, or legal action relates to the performance of duties or services by such persons to the Customer; (ii) such demand, claim, lawsuit, or legal action is not initiated by a Limited Partner; and (iii) such advances are repaid, with interest at the legal rate under Delaware law, if the person receiving such advance is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder. DWR shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Customer and its successors or assigns from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses (including in connection with the defense or settlement of claims; provided DWR has approved such settlement) incurred as a result of the activities of DWR or its affiliates, provided, further, that the act, omission, conduct, or activity giving rise to the claim for indemnification was the result of bad faith, misconduct or negligence. The indemnities provided in this Section 8 by the Customer to DWR and its affiliates shall be inapplicable in the event of any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses arising out of, or based upon, any material breach of any warranty, covenant, or agreement of DWR contained in this Agreement to the extent caused by such breach. Likewise, the indemnities provided in this Section 8 by DWR to the Customer and any of its successors and assigns shall be inapplicable in the event of any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses arising out of, or based upon, any material breach of any warranty, covenant, or agreement of the Customer contained in this Agreement to the extent caused by such breach. As used in this Section 8, the term "affiliate" of DWR shall mean: (i) any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity directly or indirectly owning, controlling, or holding with power to vote 10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of DWR; (ii) any partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity 10% or more of whose outstanding voting securities are directly or indirectly owned, controlled, or held with power to vote by DWR; (iii) any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, DWR; or (iv) any officer or director of DWR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, "affiliates" for purposes of this Section 8 shall include only those persons acting on behalf of DWR within the scope of the authority of DWR, as set forth in this Agreement.
Remedies of the Indemnitee (a) Subject to Section 10(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 8(b) that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Deed, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 6 or 10(d), (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 8 within 30 days after the later of the receipt by the Indemnitors of the request for indemnification or the final disposition of the Proceeding, (iv) payment of indemnification pursuant to this Deed is not made (A) within 10 days after a determination has been made that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or (B) with respect to indemnification pursuant to Sections 4, 5 and 10(d), within 30 days after receipt by the Indemnitors of a written request therefor, or (v) the Indemnitors or any other person or entity takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Deed void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction of his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, the Indemnitee, at his or her option, may seek an award in arbitration with respect to his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses, to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The place of arbitration shall be Dublin, Ireland. The Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 12 months following the date on which the Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 10(a); provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not apply in respect of a proceeding brought by the Indemnitee to enforce his or her rights under Section 4. The Indemnitors shall not oppose the Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration in accordance with this Deed.
Indemnification in Third Party Proceedings Subject to Section 10 below, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by the Code, as the same may be amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such amendment permits Indemnitee to broader indemnification rights than the Code permitted prior to adoption of such amendment), if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any proceeding, for any and all expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such proceeding.
ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION, HOLD HARMLESS AND EXONERATION RIGHTS Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, except for Section 27, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. No indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration rights shall be available under this Section 7 on account of Indemnitee’s conduct which constitutes a breach of Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders or is an act or omission not in good faith or which involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law.
Cooperation by the Indemnified Party The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in defending against a Third-Party Claim. In connection with any fact, matter, event or circumstance that may give rise to a claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall ensure that each relevant member of the Indemnified Party’s Group: (i) shall preserve all material evidence relevant to the claim to the extent within the control of the Indemnified Party’s Group, (ii) shall allow the Indemnifying Party to investigate the fact, matter, event or circumstance alleged to give rise to such claim and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of such claim, and (iii) shall (at the Indemnified Party’s expense) disclose to the Indemnifying Party all material of which it is aware which relates to the claim and provide, and procure that any other relevant members of the Indemnified Party’s Group shall provide (at the Indemnified Party’s expense), all such information and assistance, including reasonable access to premises and personnel, and the right to examine and copy or photograph any assets, accounts, documents and records, as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, subject to the Indemnifying Party agreeing in such form as the Indemnified Party may reasonably require to keep all such information confidential and to use it only for the purpose of investigating and defending the claim in question; provided that the foregoing shall not require the Indemnified Party to disclose any documents or information that may be reasonably expected to result in a violation of applicable Law or the loss or waiver of any attorney-client, work product or similar legal privilege; provided further that the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall work in good faith to put in place appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements to permit such disclosure without such violation, loss or waiver.
Indemnification; Exoneration (a) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this ARTICLE III, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender from and against any and all liabilities and costs which the Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than, in the case of the applicable Issuing Bank, as a result of its Gross Negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) the failure of the applicable Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future DE JURE or DE FACTO Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called "GOVERNMENTAL ACTS").
Warranty and Indemnification Executive warrants that Executive is not a party to any restrictive agreement limiting Executive’s activities in his employment by the Company. Executive further warrants that at the time of the signing of this Agreement, Executive knows of no written or oral contract or of any other impediment that would inhibit or prohibit employment with the Company, and that Executive will not knowingly use any trade secret, confidential information, or other intellectual property right of any other party in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. Executive shall hold the Company harmless from any and all suits and claims arising out of any breach of such restrictive agreement or contracts.
Notification by the Indemnified Party If any Indemnified Party becomes aware of any fact, matter or circumstance that has given or may reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall at its own expense promptly (and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the applicable Indemnified Party becoming so aware) notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article 8 (including any pending or threatened claim or demand by a third party (including any Tax Authority)), that the applicable Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, whether by litigation, by arbitration, as a result of an investigation, or otherwise (each, a “Third-Party Claim”)), setting out the provisions under this Agreement on which such claim is based, and such other information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to assess the merits of the potential claim, to act to preserve evidence and to make such provision as it may consider necessary (including details of the legal and factual basis of the claim and the evidence on which the party relies (including where the claim is the result of a Third-Party Claim, evidence of the Third-Party Claim) and, to the extent reasonably ascertainable, setting out its estimate of the amount of Losses which are, or are to be, the subject of the claim) and the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably and promptly informed of any developments (including additional information which may become available to it) in respect of such facts, matters or circumstances; provided, however, that any failure or delay in providing such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 8 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure or delay.

The Bond Trustee is not liable for the content of information provided to the Bondholders on behalf of the Issuer.
