Upon the request of the Subscriber, the Company shall reimburse (or cause to be reimbursed) the Subscriber’s Director Nominee for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Director Nominee in connection with his or her service as a director on the Company’s Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subscriber Nominee shall not be added to the Company’s Board of Directors prior to the date that is two (2) business days following the Closing Date. At all times while the Subscriber Nominee is serving as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and following such Subscriber Nominee’s cessation as a director in such former Subscriber Nominee’s capacity as a former director, the Subscriber Nominee shall be entitled to all rights to indemnification, exculpation and insurance, in each case, as are made available to any other member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company shall purchase and maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance, on behalf of the Subscriber Nominee, that shall provide coverage commensurate with that of an independent member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

11
(b) If any third party shall notify any Indemnified Party in writing with respect to any matter involving a claim by such third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) which such Indemnified Party believes would give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party under this Section 15, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of such claim and (ii) transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Third-Party Claim, a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim (if any), and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Subscription Agreement.
(c) Upon receipt of a Claim Notice with respect to a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim by, within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Claim Notice, notifying the Indemnified Party in writing that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, and upon delivery of such notice by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to fully control and settle the proceedings; provided, that any such settlement or compromise shall be permitted hereunder only with written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(d) If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third-Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, including the making of ant related counterclaim against the person asserting the Third-Party Claim or any cross complaint against any person. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to any Third-Party Claim, other than any privileged communications between the Indemnifying Party and its counsel, and shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to retain separate co-counsel and participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim assumed by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 15(c).
(e) In the event of a Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense or fails to make such an election within the thirty (30) days of Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle, compromise or pay such action or claim at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, that any such settlement or compromise shall be permitted hereunder only with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any Losses in excess of the total purchase price for the Shares.
