| 3. | Indemnification |
| (a) | Indemnity |
| (i) | The Indemnifying Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Indemnified Party, effective from and after the date the Indemnified Party first became a Representative, against any and all liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, settlements, Expenses and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Party as a result of |
- 3 -
| serving as a Representative (X) in connection with any Proceeding, and (Y) in respect of any act, matter, deed or thing whatsoever made, done, omitted to be done, committed, permitted or acquiesced by the Indemnified Party in his or her capacity as a Representative, in each case, to the full extent permitted by Applicable Law, provided that: |
| (A) | the Indemnified Party acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of an Indemnifying Party or an Other Entity, as the case may be, and in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the Indemnified Party had reasonable grounds for believing that the conduct of the Indemnified Party was lawful; and |
| (B) | in the case of an officer or agent of an Indemnifying Party or an Other Entity acting in that capacity, the Indemnified Party acted in a manner which is within the authority of the Indemnified Party and which is consistent with directions provided to the Indemnified Party by the relevant Board and any officer of the relevant Indemnifying Party or Other Entity more senior than the Indemnified Party who provides such directions. |
| (ii) | No determination in any Proceeding against the Indemnified Party by judgment, order, settlement (with or without court approval) or conviction shall, in and of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnified Party did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Indemnifying Parties or, with respect to any criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, that the Indemnified Party did not have reasonable grounds for believing that the conduct of the Indemnified Party was lawful or did not act in accordance with paragraph 3(a)(i)(B). |
| (b) | Notice and Co-operation by the Indemnified Party The Indemnified Party shall, as a condition precedent to the right to be indemnified under this Agreement: |
| (i) | give to the Indemnifying Parties notice in writing as soon as practicable of the commencement or the threatened commencement of any Proceeding against the Indemnified Party for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement; and |
| (ii) | provide the Indemnifying Parties with such information and co-operation regarding such Proceeding or threatened Proceeding as the Indemnifying Parties may reasonably require and as shall be within the Indemnified Party’s power. |
| (c) | Procedure |
| (i) | Subject to the provisions of section 4 as to the advancement of Expenses, any indemnification provided for in this section 3 shall be paid no later than 30 days after receipt of written request therefor from the Indemnified Party. |
- 4 -
| (ii) | If a claim under this Agreement, Applicable Law, or any provision of the constating documents of the Indemnifying Parties providing for indemnification is not paid in full by the Indemnifying Parties within 30 days after a written request for payment therefor has been received by the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnified Party may, but need not, at any time thereafter bring an action against the Indemnifying Parties to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, subject to sections 4 and 14 of this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall also be entitled to be paid the Expenses of bringing such action. |
| (iii) | It shall be a defense to any action referred to in paragraph 3(c)(ii) (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in advance of a Final Determination) that the Indemnified Party has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under paragraph 3(a)(i) and Applicable Law for the Indemnifying Parties to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defence shall be on the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to receive advances of Expenses pursuant to section 4 hereof unless and until a Final Determination has been made in favour of the Indemnifying Parties in relation to such defence. |
| (iv) | It is the parties’ intention that if the Indemnifying Parties contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification, the question of the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, and neither the failure of the Indemnifying Parties, the Board, any committee of the Board, Independent Counsel or an Indemnifying Party’s securityholders to make a determination that indemnification of the Indemnified Party is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnified Party has met the applicable standard of conduct required by paragraph 3(a)(i) and Applicable Law, nor an actual determination by the Indemnifying Parties, the Board, any committee of the Board, Independent Counsel or an Indemnifying Party’s securityholders that the Indemnified Party has not met such applicable standard of conduct shall create a presumption that the Indemnified Party has not met such applicable standard of conduct. |
| (d) | Notice to Insurer If at the time of the receipt of a notice of the commencement or the threatened commencement of a Proceeding given pursuant to subsection 3(b) hereof, an Indemnifying Party has trustees’, directors’, officers’, employees’ or other applicable liability insurance in effect, such Indemnifying Party shall give prompt notice of such Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable insurance policies and shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnified Party, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. |
- 5 -
| (e) | Selection of Counsel |
| (i) | In the event the Indemnifying Parties shall be obligated under this section 3 to indemnify the Indemnified Party, any one of the Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to assume the defence of such Proceeding upon the delivery to the Indemnified Party of notice of its election so to do. |
| (ii) | After delivery of notice pursuant to paragraph 3(e)(i) and the retention of counsel by the applicable Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Parties shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to the same Proceeding, provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel in any such Proceeding at the Indemnifying Parties’ expense if: |
| (A) | the retention of counsel by the Indemnified Party is authorized by the Indemnifying Parties; |
| (B) | the Indemnified Party is advised in a written opinion of counsel acceptable to the Indemnifying Parties, acting reasonably, addressed to the Indemnified Party and to the Indemnifying Parties, that there is likely to be a conflict of interest between one or more of the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Party in the conduct of any such defence; or |
| (C) | none of the Indemnifying Parties shall, in fact, have retained counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding. |
| 4. | Advances of Expenses; Witness Fees |
| (a) | Indemnified Party Undertaking The Indemnifying Parties shall advance all Expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the investigation, defence, settlement or appeal of any Proceeding prior to a Final Determination being made in connection therewith upon receipt by the Indemnifying Parties of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay the Indemnifying Parties such advanced amounts on demand if it shall be determined pursuant to a Final Determination that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified by the Indemnifying Parties hereunder; provided that it is not then contrary to Applicable Law for the Indemnifying Parties to advance such Expenses. |
| (b) | Exceptions Notwithstanding the foregoing, advances of Expenses shall not be made pursuant to subsection 4(a) if it is determined by Independent Counsel that it is more likely than not that the Indemnified Party will not be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Agreement. |
- 6 -
| (c) | Payment Date The advances of Expenses to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Fund to the Indemnified Party within 30 days following delivery of a written request therefor by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Parties. |
| (d) | Witness Fees In the event the Indemnified Party is required by law to testify in a Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall be paid a reasonable per diem fee by the Indemnifying Parties, unless the Indemnified Party is then employed by any of the Indemnifying Parties or a subsidiary of such Indemnifying Parties, together with all related Expenses. |
| 5. | Additional Indemnification Rights; Non-Exclusivity |
| (a) | Scope Subject to paragraph 3(a)(i)(A), and (B) but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Parties hereby agree to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by other provisions of this Agreement or the constating documents of the Indemnifying Parties. |
| (b) | Non-Exclusivity The indemnification provided by this Agreement is in addition to any rights to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled under an Indemnifying Party’s constating documents or any other agreement by which such Indemnifying Party is bound, any vote of its securityholders or disinterested trustees, directors, or officers (as applicable), Applicable Law or otherwise. |
| (c) | Partial Indemnification If the Indemnified Party is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Indemnifying Parties for a portion of the liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties or settlements actually or reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in the investigation, defence, appeal or settlement of any Proceeding, but not for the total amount thereof, the Indemnifying Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Indemnified Party for that portion for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification. |
| 6. | Mutual Acknowledgement |
| (a) | Law and Public Policy The Fund and the Indemnified Party acknowledge that in certain instances Applicable Law or public policy may prohibit an Indemnifying Party from indemnifying the Indemnified Party under this Agreement or otherwise, in which case the indemnity of the Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall be limited to the maximum indemnity permitted by such Applicable Law or policy. |
| (b) | Submission to Court The Indemnified Party acknowledges that an Indemnifying Party may undertake or be required in the future to undertake with the regulatory authorities to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of such Indemnifying Party’s right at law or under public policy to indemnify the Indemnified Party and, where such submission takes place, the Indemnified Party acknowledges that the Indemnified Party’s rights of indemnity hereunder will be limited to those specified in any Final Determination made in connection therewith. |
- 7 -
| (c) | Investigation Any Indemnifying Party may conduct any investigation it considers appropriate in respect of any proceeding of which it receives notice under subsection 3(b) and shall pay all costs, charges and expenses of that investigation. |

| 7. | Liability Insurance |
| (a) | Determination of Coverage Subject to subsection 7(c) hereof, the Indemnifying Parties shall, from time to time obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance on terms and with coverage limits which provide the Indemnified Party with insurance coverage which is similar in all material respects to the trustees’, directors’, managers’, officers’ or other applicable liability insurance coverage now provided by the Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party, the particulars of which are set out in Schedule A hereto, or coverage which provides enhanced overall insurance coverage to the Indemnified Party. |
| (b) | Favourable Coverage In all policies of trustees’, directors’ officers’, employees’ or other applicable liability insurance maintained by the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnified Party shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnified Party the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favourably insured of each Indemnifying Party’s trustees, directors, managers, officers or agents, as the case may be. |
| (c) | Exceptions Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain such insurance if it determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, that the premium costs for such insurance are excessive, that the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit or that the Indemnified Party is covered by similar insurance maintained by an affiliate of such Indemnifying Party. |
| (d) | Notice Each Indemnifying Party agrees to provide notice of any material changes in the insurance coverage referred to in this section 7 during the period in which the Indemnified Party serves as a Representative and for a period of six years thereafter. |
| 8. | Settlement |

| 9. | Severability |
If any section, subsection, paragraph, clause or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or enforceable, in whole or in part, such determination shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of any other section, subsection, paragraph, clause or other provision hereof and each such section, subsection, paragraph, clause and other provision shall be interpreted in such a manner as shall render them valid, legal and enforceable to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law.
| 10. | Exceptions |
Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, an Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated:

| (c) | to indemnify the Indemnified Party for any Expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to any Proceeding instituted to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a Final Determination is made that any of the material assertions made by the Indemnified Party in such proceedings are not made in good faith or are frivolous; |
