ARTICLE VIII. INDEMNIFICATION
Section 8.01 Indemnification of Company. NHL and the NHL Shareholders, jointly and severally, (“NHL Indemnifying Party”) hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the Company, each of its Affiliates and each of its and their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, stockholders, attorneys and agents and permitted assignees (each a “Company Indemnified Party”), against and in respect of any and all out-of-pocket loss, cost, payments, demand, penalty, forfeiture, expense, liability, judgment, deficiency or damage, and diminution in value or claim (including actual costs of investigation and attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses) (all of the foregoing collectively, “Losses”) incurred or sustained by any Company Indemnified Party as a result of or in connection with (a) any breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment or the alleged breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment of any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the NHL Parties contained herein or in any of the additional agreements or any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto, and (b) any Actions by any third parties with respect to the business or operations of NHL (including breach of contract claims, violations of warranties, trademark infringement, privacy violations, torts or consumer complaints) for any period on or prior to the Closing Date.
Section 8.02 Indemnification of NHL. The Company (“Company Indemnifying Party”) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the NHL Shareholders, NHL and each of its officers, directors, employees, stockholders, attorneys and agents and permitted assignees (each a “NHL Indemnified Party”), against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred or sustained by any NHL Indemnified Party as a result of or in connection with any breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment or the alleged breach, inaccuracy or nonfulfillment of any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company contained herein or in any of the additional agreements or any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto.
Section 8.03 Procedure. The following shall apply with respect to all claims by any NHL Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party for indemnification:
|
(a) | An indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt notice (an “Indemnification Notice”) of any third-party Action with respect to which such indemnified Party seeks indemnification pursuant to Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 (a “Third-Party Claim”), which shall describe in reasonable detail the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the indemnified Party. The failure to give the Indemnification Notice shall not impair any of the rights or benefits of such indemnified Party under Section 8.01 or Section 8.02, except to the extent such failure materially and adversely affects the ability of the indemnifying Party to defend such claim or increases the amount of such liability. |
21 |
|
(b) | In the case of any Third-Party Claims as to which indemnification is sought by any indemnified Party, such indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the sole expense and liability of the indemnifying Party, to exercise full control of the defense, compromise or settlement of any Third-Party Claim unless the indemnifying Party, within a reasonable time after the giving of an Indemnification Notice by the indemnified Party (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter), shall (i) deliver a written confirmation to such indemnified Party that the indemnification provisions of Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 are applicable to such Action and the indemnifying Party will indemnify such indemnified Party in respect of such Action pursuant to the terms of this Article VIII and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, shall do so without asserting any challenge, defense, limitation on the indemnifying Party’s liability for Losses, counterclaim or offset, (ii) notify such indemnified Party in writing of the intention of the indemnifying Party to assume the defense thereof, and (iii) retain legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified Party to conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim. |
|
|
|
|
(c) | If the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.03(b), then the indemnified Party shall cooperate with the indemnifying Party in any manner reasonably requested in connection with the defense, and the indemnified Party shall have the right to be kept fully informed by the indemnifying Party and their legal counsel with respect to the status of any legal proceedings, to the extent not inconsistent with the preservation of attorney-client or work product privilege. If the indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the indemnified Party shall be at the expense of such indemnified Party unless (i) the indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, or (ii) the named parties to any such Third-Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include an indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party and the indemnified Party shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between such indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense thereof, and in any such case the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the indemnifying Party. |
|
|
|
|
(d) | If the indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.03(b), the indemnified Party shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of any claim or demand arising from such asserted liability unless the indemnifying Party withdraws from or fails to vigorously prosecute the defense of such asserted liability, or unless a judgment is entered against the indemnified Party for such liability. If the indemnifying Party does not elect to defend, or if, after commencing or undertaking any such defense, the indemnifying Party fails to adequately prosecute or withdraw such defense, the indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, at the indemnifying Party’s expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control, but may participate in, and the indemnified Party (at the expense of the indemnifying Parties) shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of (x) that part of any Third Party Claim (i) that seeks a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or specific performance against the indemnified Party, or (ii) to the extent such Third Party Claim involves criminal allegations against the indemnified Party or (y) the entire Third Party Claim if such Third Party Claim would impose liability on the part of the indemnified Party. In the event the indemnified Party retains control of the Third-Party Claim, the indemnified Party will not settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. |
22 |
|
(e) | If the indemnified Party undertakes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.03(b) and proposes to settle the same prior to a final judgment thereon or to forgo appeal with respect thereto, then the indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof and the indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in the settlement, assume or reassume the defense thereof or prosecute such appeal, in each case at the indemnifying Party’s expense. The indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of such indemnified Party settle or compromise or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such Third-Party Claim (i) in which any relief other than the payment of money damages is or may be sought against such indemnified Party, (ii) in which such Third Party Claim could be reasonably expected to impose or create a monetary liability on the part of the indemnified Party (such as an increase in the indemnified Party’s income Tax) other than the monetary claim of the third party in such Third-Party Claim being paid pursuant to such settlement or judgment, or (iii) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant, person conducting such investigation or initiating such hearing, plaintiff or petitioner to such indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim and all other Actions (known or unknown) arising or which might arise out of the same facts. |
Section 8.04 Periodic Payments. Any indemnification required by this Article VIII for costs, disbursements or expenses of any indemnified Party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Action shall be made by periodic payments by the indemnifying Party to each indemnified Party during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or costs, disbursements or expenses are incurred.
Section 8.05 Insurance. Any indemnification payments hereunder shall take into account any insurance proceeds or other third-party reimbursement actually received.
Section 8.06 Time Limit. The obligations of the NHL Indemnifying Party and the Company Indemnifying Party under Section 8.01 and Section 8.02 shall expire two (2) years from the Closing Date, except with respect to (i) an indemnification claim asserted in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII which remains unresolved, for which the obligation to indemnify shall continue until such claim is resolved; and (ii) resolved claims for which payment has not yet been paid to the indemnified Party.
ARTICLE IX. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

(a) | The Parties shall promptly submit any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including with respect to the meaning, effect, validity, termination, interpretation, performance, or enforcement of this Agreement) or any alleged breach thereof (including any action in tort, contract, equity, or otherwise), to binding arbitration before one arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”). Binding arbitration shall be the sole means of resolving any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including with respect to the meaning, effect, validity, termination, interpretation, performance or enforcement of this Agreement) or any alleged breach thereof (including any claim in tort, contract, equity, or otherwise). |

The determination of the Arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the Parties and not subject to appeal. |

|

No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved Party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach. |

|
|
(d) | Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, no Party shall seek, nor shall any Party be liable for, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, under any tort, contract, equity, or other legal theory, with respect to any breach (or alleged breach) of this Agreement or any provision hereof or any matter otherwise relating hereto or arising in connection herewith. |

The inclusion of any matter, information or item in any Schedule to this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute an admission of any liability by the Company to any third party or otherwise imply, that any such matter, information or item is material or creates a measure for materiality for the purposes of this Agreement.
Section 10.16 No Assignment or Delegation. No Party may assign any right or delegate any obligation hereunder, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law, or otherwise, without the written consent of the all of the other Parties and any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void, in addition to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.
