INDEMNITY
10.01 Indemnity. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
----------
Purchaser, together with its officers, directors, shareholders, partners,
employees, agents, and other similar parties, together with their successors and
assigns ("Indemnities") harmless from and against any and all claims, losses,
costs, damages, liabilities, injuries or expenses (including court costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees) wheresoever and howsoever arising which Purchaser
may incur by reason of any breach, violation or untruth of any of the terms,
conditions, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth
herein or in any other Transaction Document to which Seller is a party, except
any of the foregoing resulting from Purchaser's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and
each Owner Trustee and each SPLP, their Indemnities and Equis Financial Group
("EFG") and its and Seller's Affiliates, harmless from and against any and all
claims, losses, costs, damages, liabilities, injuries or expenses (including
court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) wheresoever and howsoever arising
which any of the foregoing parties may incur by reason of (i) any breach,
violation or untruth of any of the terms, conditions, representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein or in any other
Transaction Document to which Purchaser is a party, or (ii) any interference
with the contractual or other relationships between any of the foregoing parties
and the Lessees under and pursuant to other leases between any of the foregoing
parties and such Lessees
9
relating to other equipment, whether in the context of returning, re-leasing,
purchasing or otherwise; except any of the foregoing resulting from Seller's
gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided, however, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right at all times to strictly enforce
its legal rights and remedies under the Leases, irrespective of any purely
coincidental impact on such relationship. EFG and its and Seller's Affiliates
shall be third party beneficiaries of this Article X. As used herein,
"Affiliates" shall mean, with respect to any Person, any other Person which is
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with
such Person. The term "control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of
the power, whether or not exercised, to direct or cause the direction of the
management or policies of any Person, whether through ownership of voting
securities, by contract or otherwise.
10.02 Indemnification Procedure.
-------------------------
(i) The party seeking indemnification under this Article X (the
"Indemnified Party") shall, promptly after the Indemnified Party has notice or
knowledge of any proposed settlement, agreement, claim, action or proceeding
giving rise to such claim for indemnification, give to the party obliged to
provide indemnification hereunder (the "Indemnitor") a notice (a "Claim Notice")
describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to its claim for
indemnification hereunder, and shall include in such Claim Notice (if then
known) the amount or method of computation of the amount of the claim, and a
reference to the clause of Section 10.01 hereof upon which such claim is based;
provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnitor shall not affect
the indemnity made hereunder or relieve the Indemnitor of its obligation to
indemnify such Indemnified Party, except and only to the extent that such
Indemnitor shall be unable to exercise its rights under clause (ii) below or
shall otherwise be materially prejudiced by such failure.
(ii) The Indemnitor, upon presentation of a Claim Notice, shall
retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to participate
in and, to the extent the Indemnitor desires, to assume and control the defense
of any matter giving rise to a claim for indemnification, and shall pay the fees
and disbursements of such counsel relating to such claim for indemnification.
Any Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in
any action, suit, claim or proceeding, the defense of which has been assumed by
the Indemnitor.
(iii) No Indemnified Party shall enter into any settlement or
other compromise with respect to any action, suit, claim or proceeding without
the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed unless such Indemnified Party waives its right
to be indemnified under this Section. Without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, the Indemnitor shall not effect any settlement of any claim
or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is
a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by the Indemnified Party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified
Party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding. Provided that an Indemnified Party has complied with this Section
10.02 in all material respects, if such Indemnified Party shall be required
under any order, writ or judgment of any applicable court or administrative
agency or authority to pay any amounts subject to the indemnity set forth
herein, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to a prompt reimbursement of
such amount from the Indemnitor, and the provisions of this Section 10.02 shall
otherwise apply.
10.03 Tax Gross Up. With respect to any indemnity payment made
------------
pursuant to this Article, such indemnity payment shall include any amount
necessary to hold the Indemnified Party harmless on an after-tax basis from all
federal and state income taxes required to be paid by the Indemnified Party with
respect to such indemnity payment; provided, however, that if the Indemnified
Party realizes a tax
10
benefit by reason of such indemnity payment, the Indemnified Party shall pay the
Indemnitor an amount equal to the net value to the Indemnified Party of such tax
benefit when, and to the extent, realized (such payments by the Indemnified
Party not to exceed in the aggregate the amount of related indemnity paid by the
Indemnitor), but not before the Indemnitor shall have made all indemnity
payments to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party required pursuant to this
Article X; provided, further, however, that if the Indemnified Party loses such
tax benefit subsequent to any payment to the Indemnitor with respect thereto,
the Indemnitor shall indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such loss
pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.02 hereof.
11
ARTICLE XI
RESERVED RIGHTS; MISTAKEN PAYMENTS
11.1 Reserved Rights, Etc. If Purchaser shall collect any amount
---------------------
under any Lease or any Transaction Document or otherwise relating to the
Reserved Rights it shall, upon it being known to Purchaser to be an amount to
which Seller or an Owner Trustee or SPLP is entitled, promptly remit such amount
to Seller or the appropriate Owner Trustee or SPLP, as appropriate, and, until
so delivered, any such amount collected by Purchaser shall be held in trust by
Purchaser for the benefit of Seller or the Owner Trustee or SPLP, as applicable.
Purchaser agrees that, in matters relating to the Reserved Rights, it shall act
in a manner consistent with the rights of Seller as the predecessor owner and
lessor of the Equipment or as the predecessor beneficial owner under the
Equipment Trust(s) or SPLPs, and the Owner Trustee and the SPLP. If Seller
shall receive any amount under any Lease or any Transaction Document or
otherwise relating to the period from and after the Closing (other than any
amounts in respect of Reserved Rights and other than rent attributable to
periods prior to the Closing), it shall promptly remit such amount to Purchaser
and, until so delivered, any such amount collected by Seller shall be held in
trust by Seller for the benefit of Purchaser. Seller agrees that, in matters
relating to amounts received by it relating to any Lease or Transaction Document
and pertaining to periods subsequent to the Closing (other than any amounts in
respect of Reserved Rights and other than rent attributable to periods prior to
the Closing), it shall act in a manner consistent with the rights of Purchaser
herein.
11.2 Mistaken Payments. Purchaser acknowledges that many of the
-----------------
Lessees will continue to lease equipment not being sold to Purchaser hereunder
from one or more Affiliates of Seller or EFG. It is likely that,
notwithstanding the efforts of Seller and Purchaser, certain of such Lessees may
from time to time mistakenly make a payment to Purchaser due to Seller under one
or more such other leases. Purchaser agrees to promptly remit any such amount
to Seller and, until so delivered, hold such payment in trust for Seller.
ARTICLE XII
CONFIDENTIALITY
Purchaser covenants and agrees to keep the terms of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents confidential and agrees not to disclose the same
to any person without the prior written consent of Seller or Seller's
Affiliates, provided that Purchaser shall have the right to disclose the same
(i) to its directors, officers, employees, auditors or counsel to
whom it is necessary to disclose such information, each of which shall be
informed of the confidential nature of the information;
(ii) to Fleet Bank, N.A. in connection with its financing of the
purchase of the Transferred Assets by Purchaser;
(iii) in any statement or testimony pursuant to a subpoena or order
of any Governmental Body or as otherwise required by law (provided that
Purchaser shall use its best efforts to give Seller prior written notice of such
intended disclosure unless such notice shall be prohibited by law); and
12
(iv) to the extent required in its financial statements.
ARTICLE XIII
MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
--------
shall be consummated, each of Seller and Purchaser shall be obligated in respect
of all of its own costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, in
