- 4 -

such person personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which such person knew such person was not legally entitled or, that with respect to a distribution to the Member, such Member’s acts were not performed in accordance with the Act.

21. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Member, Director, officer, employee or agent of the Company to the fullest extent permitted under the Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any amendment, substitution or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Company is providing immediately prior to such amendment), against all expenses, liabilities and losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Member, Director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving as a Member, Director, officer, employee or agent of a subsidiary of the Company; provided, that no such person will be indemnified for any expenses, liabilities and losses suffered that are attributable to such person’s bad faith, intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law (as described in Section 20). Expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, incurred by any such indemnified person in defending a proceeding will be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay promptly such amount if it will ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

22. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be enforceable only if modified, such holding will not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, the balance of which will continue to be binding upon the Member with any such modification to become a part hereof and treated as though originally set forth in this Agreement.

23. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed under, the internal laws of the State of Delaware.
