(c) Each Observer shall (i) be provided by the Company with all notices of meetings, consents, minutes and other written materials that are provided to the directors serving on the Board or committee at the same time as such materials are provided to such directors and (ii) be entitled to attend all meetings of the Board or applicable committee. The Company shall reimburse each Observer for all travel and lodging expenses in connection with the attendance by the Observer at any Board or committee meeting on the same terms, and subject to the same policies, as shall apply to the other directors of the Company serving on the Board or such committee.

-15-
or its affiliated or associated Indemnitees were adverse to the interests of the Company) or (ii) operations of, or services provided by any of the Indemnitees to the Company or any of its Affiliates from time to time (including but not limited to any indemnification obligations assumed or incurred by any Indemnitee to or on behalf of the Company or its accountants or other representatives, agents or Affiliates); provided that the foregoing indemnification rights shall not be available to the extent that any such Indemnified Liabilities arose on account of such Indemnitee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud, and further provided that, if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, the Company hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. For purposes of this Section 7.8, none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the two provisos in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such limitation is so determined to apply to any Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by the Company, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Indemnitee to the Company. The rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement or instrument referenced above or any other agreement or instrument to which such Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation. None of the Indemnitees shall in any event be liable to the Company or any of its Affiliates for any act or omission suffered or taken by such Indemnitee that does not constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud.
7.9. Indemnification Priority. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be fully and primarily responsible for the payment of all Indemnified Liabilities to each Indemnitee, howsoever such right to indemnification or advancement from the Company arises, without regard to (i) any right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from a third party or (ii) any right to insurance coverage that the Indemnitee may have under any insurance policy. Under no circumstance shall the Company be entitled to any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification or contribution from any such third party or insurance carrier pursuant to any right of indemnification that the Indemnitee may have under any contract, insurance policy or otherwise, and the Company shall not have any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Indemnitee in respect thereof. No right of indemnification, reimbursement, advancement of expenses or insurance coverage or any other right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from any third party or insurance carrier shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Company under Section 7.8. The Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases, and covenants and agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any Indemnitee that arises from or relates to the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement or under any other indemnification agreement (whether pursuant to contract, by-laws or charter), including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Indemnitee against any third party or insurance carrier, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right.
