The Subscriber shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Proxy from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Proxy Losses”) arising out of or in connection with any act done or omitted in the Proxy’s capacity as representative of the Subscriber pursuant to this instrument, in each case as such Proxy Losses are suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Proxy Losses are finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Proxy, the Company shall reimburse the Subscriber the amount of such indemnified Proxy Losses to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct (provided that the Proxy’s aggregate liability hereunder shall in no event exceed the Purchase Price). In no event will the Proxy be required to advance his, her or its own funds on behalf of the Subscriber or otherwise. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing indemnities will survive the resignation or removal of the Proxy or the termination of this instrument.
(c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Proxy constitutes a decision of the Subscriber and is final, binding and conclusive upon the Subscriber. The Company, shareholders of the Company and any other third party may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Proxy as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Subscriber. The Company, shareholders of the Company and any other third party are hereby relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Proxy.
(d) The Subscriber hereby agrees to take any and all actions determined by the Company’s board of directors in good faith to be advisable to reorganize this instrument and any Securities held by the Subscriber into a special-purpose vehicle or other entity designed to aggregate the interests of holders of Securities issued in this Offering.
(e) If any provision of this Proxy or any part of any this Section 5 is held under any circumstances to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (a) such provision or part thereof shall, with respect to such circumstances and in such jurisdiction, be deemed amended to conform to applicable laws so as to be valid and enforceable to the fullest possible extent, (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision or part thereof under such circumstances and in such jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision or part thereof under any other circumstances or in any other jurisdiction, and (c) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision or part thereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of such provision or the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Proxy. Each provision of this proxy is separable from every other provision of this proxy, and each part of each provision of this Proxy is separable from every other part of such provision.
6. Survival of Representations and Indemnity. The representations, warranties and covenants made by the Subscriber herein shall survive the Termination Date of this Agreement. The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Subscriber herein or in any other document furnished by the Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.
