Furthermore, there may be certain proprietary deal information (“Proprietary Deal Information”) which the Sub-Advisor, RXR or their respective Affiliates have agreed with persons who are not affiliates of the Sub-Advisor or RXR to keep confidential. If the disclosure of such Proprietary Deal Information would be, in the good faith of judgment of the Sub-Advisor, a violation of these obligations, the Sub-Advisor shall be not required to provide any such Proprietary Deal Information under this Agreement. To the extent practicable, in lieu of such Proprietary Deal Information, the Sub-Advisor will use reasonable efforts to provide generic information that would not compromise any applicable obligations of confidentiality.
The Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor, the Company, the Advisor and each individual or entity provided with access to the Confidential Information through any of them (each, a “Recipient”) shall not, without first obtaining express written consent from the Sub-Advisor: (a) use or permit the use of any Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever except for the specific purposes it was provided under this Section 8.03 to confirm adherence to the investment allocation policy; (b) disclose or permit the disclosure of any Confidential Information to any person or entity other than to those of the officers, directors, employees, and professional advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) of each of them (i) with a need to know the information contained therein for the purposes of this Section 8.03 and (ii) only upon the condition that such Representative has undertaken to hold such Confidential Information confidential to the same extent set forth herein; (c) use the Confidential Information directly or indirectly in any way for competitive purposes or to obtain any commercial advantage with respect to the Sub-Advisor, RXR or their respective Affiliates, or (d) disclose any Confidential Information to any individual or third party other than the Representatives.

Each Recipient shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any of its Representatives.
This confidentiality provisions in the preceding paragraph shall not apply to particular portions of the Confidential Information that (i) are or become generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of this Agreement; (ii) are in, or come into, a Recipient’s possession on a non-confidential basis from a source that, to the Recipient’s knowledge, was at the relevant time entitled to make such disclosure without breaching any obligation of confidentiality
17
NY 246401230v5

If the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor, the Company, the Advisor, the Board or any of their Representatives is required by law, regulatory authority or by court order, subpoena or other legal process to disclose any Confidential Information, such Person may do so, provided that it has first (i) given the Sub-Advisor prompt written notice (except to the extent such notice is prohibited by law or by a governmental regulatory or self-regulatory authority) so that the Sub-Advisor may object to such disclosure, seek an appropriate protective order at the cost and expense of the Company, and/or review and comment on such disclosure and (ii) received the consent of the Sub-Advisor, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor nor the Operating Partnership shall indemnify the Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates for any loss, liability or expense arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee; or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.
17.02 Limitation on Indemnification.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor and the Operating Partnership shall not provide for indemnification of the Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates for any liability or loss suffered by any of them, nor shall any of them be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Company, unless all of the following conditions are met:
29
NY 246401230v5
(i) The Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates have determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best interests of the Company and the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor.
(ii) The Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates were acting on behalf of or performing services for the Company or the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor.
(iii) Such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates.
(iv) Such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Company’s or the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor’s net assets and not from the Stockholders.
17.03 Limitation on Payment of Expenses.
The Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor and the Operating Partnership shall jointly and severally pay or reimburse reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by the Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding only if (in addition to the procedures required by the Maryland General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time) all of the following are satisfied: (a) the proceeding relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor or the Operating Partnership, (b) the legal proceeding was initiated by a third party who is not a Stockholder or, if by a Stockholder acting in his or her capacity as such, a court of competent jurisdiction approves such advancement and (c) the Sub-Advisor or its Affiliates undertake to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor and the Operating Partnership, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, if it is ultimately determined that the particular indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification.
17.04 Indemnification of the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor, the Company and the Operating Partnership.
The Sub-Advisor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor and the Operating Partnership, including their respective officers, directors, equity holders, partners, members and employees, from contract or other liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses including attorneys’ fees, to the extent that such liability, claims, damages, taxes or losses and related expenses are not fully reimbursed by insurance and are incurred by reason of the Sub-Advisor’s bad faith, fraud, misfeasance, intentional misconduct, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties; provided, however, that the Sub-Advisor shall not be held
30
NY 246401230v5
responsible for any action of the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor or the Board in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendation given by the Sub-Advisor.

During the period commencing on the date hereof through and ending one year following the Termination

Date, neither the Company, the Advisor nor the Sub-Advisor will, whether for its own account or for the account of any other Person, intentionally interfere with the relationship of the Company, the Advisor, the Sub-Advisor or their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, with, or endeavor to entice away from any such party or its Affiliates, any person who during the term of the Agreement is, or during the preceding one-year period, was a tenant, co-investor, co-developer, joint venture or other customer of any such party or its Affiliates.

The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.
20.07 Waiver.
Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence.

The Sub-Advisor and its representatives shall hold in confidence all data and information obtained from the Company, the Advisor, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor or the Operating Partnership or any of their agents (other than data and information which is publicly available), whether obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall not disclose the same to others; provided, however, that the Sub-Advisor may disclose any data and information to its employees, officers, managers, consultants, accountants, attorneys and other agents who are assisting in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, in each case who are advised that such data and information is confidential and are directed to keep such information confidential, except to the extent (a) required by a court order, governmental agency, including, the SEC, regulatory body or by law, or (b) in connection with any legal proceeding concerning this Agreement.

Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company, the Advisor, the Colony NorthStar Sub-Advisor and the Operating Partnership hereto from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach.

submit a request to the Company for payment of such fee or reimbursement of such expense until such disagreement is resolved.
