was within the scope of the Indemnitee’s authority; provided that all claims for indemnification by an Indemnitee shall be made only against and shall be limited to the assets of the LLC and no Indemnitee shall have recourse against the Member with respect to any such Claim. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption or otherwise constitute evidence that the Indemnitee’s conduct did constitute fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

7.2 Expenses

Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any Claim subject to this Section 7 shall, from time to time, upon request by the Indemnitee, be advanced by the LLC prior to the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the LLC of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount, together with interest on any such advance or advances at the rate equal to two percentage points above the “Federal short-term rate” as defined in the Internal Revenue Code section 1274(d)(1)(C)(i) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, promptly upon (and in no event more than ten days after) a determination in a judicial proceeding or a binding arbitration that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.

7.3 Other Rights

The indemnification provided by this Section 7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement or as approved by the Member, as a matter of law or equity, or otherwise, both as to an action in such Indemnitee’s capacity as the Member or Manager or as a director, officer, employee, shareholder, controlling person, agent or representative of the LLC or the Member, and as to an action in another capacity, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity with respect to those periods during which such Indemnitee served, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, and administrators of the Indemnitee.

7.4 Notice

Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim, an Indemnitee will, if indemnification in respect thereof is to be sought against the LLC under this Section 7, notify the LLC of the initiation thereof, but the omission so to notify the LLC will not relieve the LLC from any liability that the LLC may have to such Indemnitee otherwise than under this Section 7, or under this Section 7 except to the extent that the LLC is adversely affected by such lack of notice.

5

7.5 Counsel

The LLC shall have the right to undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, the defense or other resolution of any Claim. In the event that the LLC shall elect not to undertake such defense or other resolution or within a reasonable time after notice of such Claim from an Indemnitee, the LLC shall fail to defend or otherwise resolve such Claim, such Indemnitee (upon further written notice to the LLC) shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise, or settlement of such Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the LLC.

7.6 Other Persons

The provisions of this Section 7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other person or entity.

The LLC may purchase and maintain insurance of a kind normal and customary in the industry in which the LLC conducts business on behalf of any Indemnitee against any liability asserted against an Indemnitee and incurred by an Indemnitee in such capacity, or arising out of such Indemnitee’s status as aforesaid, whether or not the LLC would have the power to indemnify such Indemnitee against such liability under this Section 7.
