INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.12
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of [●], 2021, by and between Caritas Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), and [●] (“Indemnitee”).
WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve publicly held corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate
indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such corporations;
WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons;
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Corporation’s shareholders and that the Corporation should act to assure such
persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Corporation will
attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Corporation and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. The certificate of incorporation of the Corporation limits the liability
of the members of the Board to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, and the bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”) provide that the Corporation will
indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by such law. The Bylaws provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Corporation and
members of the Board, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification and advancement rights;
WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Corporation contractually to obligate itself to indemnify and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that
they will serve or continue to serve the Corporation free from undue concern that they will not be so protected against liabilities; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee
thereunder.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Corporation and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:
| 1. |
SERVICES TO THE CORPORATION
|
In consideration of the Corporation’s covenants and obligations hereunder, Indemnitee will serve or continue to serve as an officer, director, advisor, key employee or in any other capacity of the
Corporation, as applicable, for so long as Indemnitee is duly elected, appointed or retained or until Indemnitee tenders his or her resignation or until Indemnitee is removed. The foregoing notwithstanding, this Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect after Indemnitee has ceased to serve as a director, officer, advisor, key employee or in any other capacity of the Corporation, as provided in Section 17. This Agreement, however, shall not impose any obligation on Indemnitee or
the Corporation to continue Indemnitee’s service to the Corporation beyond any period otherwise required by law or by other agreements or commitments of the parties, if any.

connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually, and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter
therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful; provided that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only
to the extent that the Delaware Court or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the Proceeding, Indemnitee is fairly
and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court or such other court shall deem proper.
| 4. |
INDEMNITY IN PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee was, is, or is threatened to be made,
a party to or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise) in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall
be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and

have been finally adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent that any court in which the Proceeding was brought or the Delaware Court shall determine upon application that, despite
the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, to be held harmless or to exoneration.

| 5. |
INDEMNIFICATION FOR EXPENSES OF A PARTY WHO IS WHOLLY OR PARTLY SUCCESSFUL
|
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, but subject to Section 27, to the extent that Indemnitee was or is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a party to (or a participant
in) and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, in whole or in part, the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Indemnitee against
all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or
matters in such Proceeding, the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding, the Corporation also shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses reasonably incurred
in connection with a claim, issue or matter related to any claim, issue, or matter on which Indemnitee was successful. For purposes of this Section 5 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by
dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.
| 6. |
INDEMNIFICATION FOR EXPENSES OF A WITNESS
|
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to Section 27, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a witness or deponent in any Proceeding
to which Indemnitee is not a party or threatened to be made a party, he or she shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or
her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.
| 7. |
ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS

Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4 or 5, but subject to Section 27, the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a
party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement
(including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with
the Proceeding. No indemnification rights shall be available under this Section 7 on account of Indemnitee’s conduct which constitutes a breach of Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its shareholders or is an act or omission not in
good faith or which involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law.

| 8. |
CONTRIBUTION IN THE EVENT OF JOINT LIABILITY
|
| (a) |
To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification rights provided for in this Agreement are unavailable to Indemnitee in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever, the
Corporation, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses,
in connection with any Proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment, and the Corporation hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have at any time against Indemnitee.

The Corporation shall not enter into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Corporation is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such Proceeding) unless such settlement provides for
a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.
|
| (c) |
The Corporation hereby agrees to fully indemnify Indemnitee from any claims for contribution which may be brought by officers, directors or employees of the Corporation other than Indemnitee who may be
jointly liable with Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall seek payments or advances from the Corporation only to the extent that such payments or advances are unavailable from any insurance policy of the Corporation covering Indemnitee.
|
| 9. |
EXCLUSIONS
|
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, but subject to Section 27, the Corporation shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification or advance Expenses payment in
connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:
| (a) |
for which payment has actually been received by or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity or advancement provision and which payment has not subsequently been returned, except
with respect to any excess beyond the amount actually received under any insurance policy, contract, agreement, other indemnity or advancement provision or otherwise;
|
| (b) |
for an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Corporation within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (or any successor

(or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Corporation or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its
initiation or (ii) the Corporation provides the indemnification payment, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Corporation under applicable law.

| 10. |
ADVANCES OF EXPENSES; DEFENSE OF CLAIM
|
| (a) |
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 27, and to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Corporation shall pay the Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee within three months) in connection with any Proceeding within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements requesting such
advances from time to time, prior to the final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be made without
regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all
reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing a Proceeding to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Corporation to support the advances claimed. To the fullest extent required by
applicable law, such payments of Expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon the Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Indemnitee, to repay the advanced amounts only if, and
to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under the provisions of this Agreement, the Bylaws, applicable law or otherwise. If it shall be determined by a final
judgment or other final adjudication that Indemnitee was not so entitled to indemnification, any advancement shall be returned to the Corporation (without interest) by the Indemnitee. This Section 10(a) shall not apply to any claim made by
Indemnitee for which an indemnification payment is excluded pursuant to Section 9, but shall apply to any Proceeding referenced in Section 9(b) prior to a final determination that Indemnitee is liable therefor.
|
| (b) |
The Corporation will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense.
|
| (c) |
The Corporation shall not settle any action, claim or Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, judgment, fine, penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written
consent.
|
| 11. |
PROCEDURE FOR NOTIFICATION AND APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION
|
| (a) |
Indemnitee shall, as a condition precedent to the right to be indemnified under this Agreement, notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any claim made against Indemnitee for which
indemnification rights or advancement of Expenses, will or could be sought under this Agreement.
|
| (b) |
Such notice of a claim shall include a request to indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with this Agreement, and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with Section 21 of this Agreement. In
addition, Indemnitee shall give the Corporation such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee's power. Following the Corporation’s receipt of such request for indemnification, Indemnitee’s
entitlement to indemnification shall be determined according to Section 12(a) of this Agreement.
|
9
| 12. |
PROCEDURE UPON APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION
|
| (a) |
A determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made in the specific case by one of the following methods, which shall be at the election
of Indemnitee: (i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, (iii) if there are no Disinterested
Directors or if such directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee, or (iv) by vote of the shareholders by ordinary resolution. The Corporation promptly will
advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied. If it is so determined that
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect
to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which
is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or
entity making such determination shall be borne by the Corporation (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Corporation hereby agrees to indemnify therefrom.
|
| (b) |
In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section
12(b). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Corporation advising it of the identity of the
Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. If the Independent Counsel is selected by the Board, the
Corporation shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as
defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. In either event, Indemnitee or the Corporation, as the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Corporation or to
Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so
selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of
competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(b) hereof, no Independent Counsel shall
have been selected and not objected to, either the Corporation or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Corporation or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent
Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Delaware Court, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under
Section 12(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity
(subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).
|
10
| (c) |
The Corporation agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel and to fully indemnify such Independent Counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out
of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.
|
| 13. |
PRESUMPTIONS AND EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS
|
| (a) |
In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 11(b) of this Agreement, and the Corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by
any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including by the
Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
|
| (b) |
If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within thirty (30)
days after receipt by the Corporation of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a
final judicial determination that any or all such indemnification is expressly prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not
to exceed an additional fifteen (15) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation
and/or information relating thereto.
|
11
| (c) |
The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
|
| (d) |
For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including
financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors, managers, managing members or officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise, its Board, any
committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member, or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general
partner, manager or managing member, by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected by the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or
managing member. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in
this Agreement.
|
| (e) |
The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee
for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

REMEDIES OF INDEMNITEE
|
| (a) |
In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, is not timely made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement within thirty (30)
days after receipt by the Corporation of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Sections 5, 6, 7 or the last sentence of Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by
the Corporation of a written request therefor, (v) a contribution payment is not made in a timely manner pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement, or (vi) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement is not made
within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the Delaware Court to such indemnification, contribution or advancement rights.
Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his or her option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association. Except
as set forth herein, the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association shall apply to any such arbitration. The Corporation shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication
or award in arbitration.
|
| (b) |
In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant
to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination.
|
| (c) |
In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to be indemnified, held harmless, exonerated to receive advancement of Expenses
under this Agreement and the Corporation shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, held harmless, exonerated and to receive advancement of Expenses, as the case may be, and the Corporation may not refer
to or introduce into evidence any determination pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement adverse to Indemnitee for any purpose. If Indemnitee commences a judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall
not be required to reimburse the Corporation for any advances pursuant to Section 10 until a final determination is made with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification (as to which all rights of appeal have been exhausted or
lapsed).
|
| (d) |
If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial
proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection
with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.
|
13
| (e) |
The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding
and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.
|
| (f) |
The Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after the Corporation’s receipt of such
written request) pay to Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Expenses which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any judicial proceeding or arbitration brought by Indemnitee: (i) to enforce his or her
rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement or any other indemnification, advancement or contribution agreement or provision of the Bylaws now or hereafter in effect; or (ii) for recovery or advances under any
insurance policy maintained by any person for the benefit of Indemnitee, regardless of the outcome and whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification right, advancement, contribution or insurance
recovery, as the case may be (unless such judicial proceeding or arbitration was not brought by Indemnitee in good faith).
|
| (g) |
Interest shall be paid by the Corporation to Indemnitee at the legal rate under Delaware law for amounts which the Corporation indemnifies or advances, or is obliged to indemnify or advance for the period
commencing with the date on which Indemnitee requests indemnification or advancement of any Expenses and ending with the date on which such payment is made to Indemnitee by the Corporation.
|
| 15. |
SECURITY
|
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 27, to the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board, the Corporation may at any time and from time to time
provide security to Indemnitee for the Corporation’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the
prior written consent of Indemnitee.
| 16. |
NON-EXCLUSIVITY; SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION; PRIORITY OF OBLIGATIONS
|
| (a) |
The rights of Indemnitee as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of shareholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any Proceeding
(regardless of when such Proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) or claim, issue or matter therein arising out of, or related to, any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such
amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification rights or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Bylaws or
this Agreement, then this Agreement (without any further action by the parties hereto) shall automatically be deemed to be amended to require that the Corporation indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law. No right or
remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
|
14
| (b) |
The Bylaws permit the Corporation to purchase and maintain insurance or furnish
similar protection or make other arrangements, including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond (“Indemnification Arrangements”) on behalf of Indemnitee against any liability asserted against him or her or incurred by or on behalf of
him or her or in such capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability
under the provisions of this Agreement and the Bylaws. The purchase, establishment, and maintenance of any such Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Corporation or of
Indemnitee under this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Corporation and Indemnitee shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Corporation or
the other party or parties thereto under any such Indemnification Arrangement.
|
| (c) |
To the extent that the Corporation maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, trustees, partners, managers, managing members, fiduciaries, employees, or
agents of the Corporation or of any other Enterprise which such person serves at the request of the Corporation, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the
coverage available for any such director, officer, trustee, partner, managers, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time the Corporation receives notice from any source of a Proceeding as
to which Indemnitee is a party or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise), the Corporation has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Corporation shall give prompt notice of such Proceeding to the insurers in
accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Corporation shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such
Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
|
| (d) |
In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who
shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Corporation to bring suit to enforce such rights. No such payment by the
Corporation shall be deemed to relieve any insurer of its obligations.
|
15
| (e) |
The Corporation’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing
member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification payments or advancement of expenses from such Enterprise. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 27, (i) Indemnitee shall have no obligation to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification, advancement, contribution or insurance coverage among multiple
parties possessing such duties to Indemnitee prior to the Corporation’s satisfaction and performance of all its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) the Corporation shall perform fully its obligations under this Agreement without
regard to whether Indemnitee holds, may pursue or has pursued any indemnification, advancement, contribution or insurance coverage rights against any person or entity other than the Corporation.
|
| (f) |
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Corporation is the primary indemnitor, and any indemnification or advancement obligation of any other Person is secondary.
|
| 17. |
DURATION OF AGREEMENT
|
All agreements and obligations of the Corporation contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee serves as a director or officer of the Corporation or as a director, officer, trustee,
partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other Enterprise which Indemnitee serves at the request of the Corporation and shall continue
thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding (including any rights of appeal thereto and any Proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement) by reason of his or her Corporate Status,
whether or not he or she is acting in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification or advancement can be provided under this Agreement.
| 18. |
SEVERABILITY
|
If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph or sentence of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or
unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law
and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph or sentence of this Agreement
containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.
16
| 19. |
ENFORCEMENT AND BINDING EFFECT
|
| (a) |
The Corporation expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director, officer or key
employee of the Corporation, and the Corporation acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director, officer or key employee of the Corporation.
|
| (b) |
Without limiting any of the rights of Indemnitee under the Bylaws as they may be amended from time to time, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
|
| (c) |
The indemnification and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation), shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or a director, officer, trustee, general partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise at the Corporation’s request, and shall inure to the
benefit of Indemnitee and his or her spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and other legal representatives.
|
| (d) |
The Corporation shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, substantially all or a substantial part, of the business and/or
assets of the Corporation, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to
perform if no such succession had taken place.
|
| (e) |
The Corporation and Indemnitee agree herein that a monetary remedy for breach of this Agreement, at some later date, may be inadequate, impracticable and difficult of proof, and further agree that such breach
may cause Indemnitee irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that Indemnitee may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, enforce this Agreement by seeking, among other things, injunctive relief and/or specific performance
hereof, without any necessity of showing actual damage or irreparable harm and that by seeking injunctive relief and/or specific performance, Indemnitee shall not be precluded from seeking or obtaining any other relief to which he or she
may be entitled. The Corporation and Indemnitee further agree that Indemnitee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be entitled to such specific performance and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders,
preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, without the necessity of posting bonds or other undertaking in connection therewith. The Corporation acknowledges that in the absence of a waiver, a bond or undertaking may be required of
Indemnitee by a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Corporation hereby waives any such requirement of such a bond or undertaking to the fullest extent permitted by law.
|
17
| 20. |
MODIFICATION AND WAIVER
|
No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
| 21. |

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.
| 24. |
MISCELLANEOUS

representatives after the expiration of two years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the Corporation shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action
within such two-year period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter period shall govern.

| 27. |
MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE
|
The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain in effect during the entire period for which the Corporation is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee under this
Agreement, one or more policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies to provide the officers/directors of the Corporation with coverage for losses from wrongful acts and omissions and to ensure the Corporation’s performance of its
indemnification obligations under this Agreement. The Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director or officer under such policy
or policies. In all such insurance policies, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee with the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Corporation’s directors
and officers.
