representative shall be personally liable for the debts, obligations and liabilities of the
Company.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and except to the extent
required by the Act and any other applicable law, no Board representative shall be liable to the

such person did not act in bad faith and such action or omission does not involve the fraud, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such person.
5
(d) Indemnification.
(i) The Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless
each Member, Board representative and Officer and their respective directors, officers, partners,
employees, agents and affiliates (each, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all liabilities,
damages, reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), judgments, amounts
paid in settlement and fines actually and reasonable incurred by such Indemnitee arising out of or
in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding,
whether of a civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other nature, or any appeal thereof,
to which such Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of (i)
any such Indemnitee’s status as a Member, Board representative or Officer, or (ii) any action taken
or omitted to be taken by any such Indemnitee in any capacity referred to in clause (i) of Section
7(a) (including, without limitation, any such action or omission prior to the formation of the
Company or prior to being appointed to such status), relating to this Agreement or the formation,
capitalization, business, affairs or management of, or the property of, the Company; provided,
however, that the Indemnitee did not act in bad faith and the act or omission which is the basis of
such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding did not involve the fraud, gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee; provided, further, that the Company shall indemnify an
Indemnitee for the defense of any action brought in the name of the Company to procure a judgment
in its favor by a Member only to the extent that such indemnification is permitted by applicable
law (including without limitation the Act).

fees and expenses) incurred in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to
this Section 7(d) shall be paid or reimbursed periodically by the Company in advance of the final
disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking (which
need not be secured) by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be
determined, as permitted by the Company as authorized hereunder.
(iii) The indemnification provided by this Section 7(d) shall be in addition to any other
rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled, and shall continue as
to an Indemnitee who has
ceased to serve in a capacity for which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification.
(iv) To the extent commercially reasonable, the Company shall have the right to purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnitees against any liability which may be asserted against
or expense which may be incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with the Company’s activities,
whether or not the company would have the power to indemnify an Indemnitee against such liability
under the provisions of this Agreement; and the cost of premium of any such insurance shall be
borne by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not provide directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance to the Board representatives without the unanimous approval of the
Members.
