The rights granted pursuant to this Article VIII shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Article VIII shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions or omissions or Proceedings arising prior to any

6

such amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article VIII could involve indemnification for negligence or liabilities under theories of strict liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, no Person shall be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article VIII with respect to any Proceeding (or any claim in any Proceeding) initiated or made by such Person without the express prior approval of the Managers. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, and in addition to the other limitations on indemnification under the DGCL incorporated herein as aforesaid, no Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and expenses to the extent they result from actions or omissions involving gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Person.

          8.2 Determination of Eligibility. To the extent the DGCL requires a determination as to whether a standard of conduct expressed in Section 145 thereof has been met by a Person or any other determination bearing on whether a Person is entitled to indemnification, such determination shall be made by the Managers.

          8.3 Advancement of Expenses. A Person who is or was a Member, Manager or officer of the Company who may be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII shall have the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Person in defending a Proceeding in respect of which such indemnity is sought in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding, upon written request to the Company with a written undertaking, by or on behalf of such Person, to repay the amount so paid or reimbursed if it shall ultimately be determined that such Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VIII.

          8.4 Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company, by action of the Managers, may indemnify and advance expenses to an employee or agent of the Company who is not an officer of the Company to the same or lesser extent (subject to the same or more restrictive conditions) as it may indemnify and advance expenses to the Member, any Manager or any Person serving as an officer under this Article VIII.

          8.5 Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, the Company may pay or reimburse expenses incurred by the Member, any Manager or any officer in connection with such Member’s, Manager’s or officer’s appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding at a time when such Member, Manager or officer is not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

          8.6 Nonexclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right which the Member, Manager or other Person indemnified pursuant to Section 8.1 may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory), provision of the Certificate of Formation or this Agreement, agreement, action of the Member or Managers or otherwise.

          8.7 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Person who is the Member or a Manager or was serving as an officer, employee or agent of the Company, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such expense, liability or loss under this Article VIII.

7

          8.8 Savings Clause. If this Article VIII or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless the Member, any Manager or any other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article VIII as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article VIII that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

MISCELLANEOUS

          12.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies provided by this Agreement are cumulative and the use of any one right or remedy by any party shall not preclude or waive the right to use any or all other rights or remedies.
