12. Exculpation and Indemnification. In the event that the Member or any of its direct or indirect directors, officers, stockholders, employees, agents, affiliates or controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”; each, including the Member, an “Indemnified Person”), becomes involved, in any capacity, in any threatened, pending or completed, action, proceeding or investigation, in connection with any matter arising out of or relating to the Company’s business or affairs, the Company will periodically reimburse such Indemnified Person for its legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith, provided that such Indemnified Person shall promptly repay to the Company the amount of any such reimbursed expenses paid to it if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company in connection with such action, proceeding or

investigation as provided in the exception contained in the next succeeding sentence. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company also will indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Person against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, “Costs”), to which such an Indemnified Person may become subject in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with the Company’s business or affairs, except to the extent that any such Costs result solely from the willful misfeasance, gross negligence or bad faith of such Indemnified Person. If for any reason (other than the willful misfeasance, gross negligence, or bad faith of such Indemnified Person) the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to such Indemnified Person, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Costs in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and such Indemnified Person on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Company and such Indemnified Person, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company under this Section 12 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company and any Indemnified Person. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company under this Section 12 shall be limited to the Company’s assets, and the Member shall not have any personal liability on account thereof. The foregoing provisions shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

13. Limited Liability. Except as otherwise provided by the Delaware Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and neither the Member nor any affiliate, director, officer, partner or controlling person of the Member shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company.

14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, AND ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER SUCH LAWS WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.
