21
Execution Copy
whole or in part on the inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or the failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for legal and other expenses reasonably incurred as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) the failure of such Indemnified Party to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 2(h) above respecting sale of the Shares, or (ii) the inaccuracy of any representations made by such Indemnified Party herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company have any liability under this Section 8(k) in an amount that exceeds the proceeds received by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.
(i)Each Buyer shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the other Buyers and the Company, its directors, officers, and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act and Section 20 of the 0000 Xxx) and the directors, officers, partners, members or employees of such controlling Persons, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors or each of its controlling Persons may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Buyer) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any failure by such Buyer to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 2(h) above respecting the sale of the Securities or (ii) the inaccuracy of any representation made by such Buyer in any of the Transaction Documents, in each case to the extent, and will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, and each of its controlling Persons for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred, as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors, and each of its controlling Persons in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. No Buyer shall be liable for the indemnification obligations of any other Buyer.
(l)No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
(m)Remedies. Each Buyer shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.
(n)Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company will not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges and each Buyer confirms that it has
22
Execution Copy
independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
(o)Reliance by the Agents. The parties agree and acknowledge that the Agents may rely on the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the Company contained in this Agreement and may rely on the representations and warranties of the respective Buyers contained in this Agreement as if such representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants, as applicable, were made directly to the Agents. The parties further agreement that the Agents may rely on or, if the Agents so request, be specifically named as an addressee of, the legal opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(d) of this Agreement.
(p)Exculpation of Agents. Each party hereto agrees for the express benefit of the Agents, their respective affiliates and their respective representatives that:
(i)Neither Agents nor any of their affiliates or any of their representatives (A) have any duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein or in the Engagement Letter, (B) make any representation or warranty, or have any responsibilities as to the validity, accuracy, value or genuineness of any information, certificates or documentation delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (C) shall be liable (i) for any action taken, suffered or omitted by any of them in good faith and reasonably believed to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement or any Transaction Document or (ii) for anything which any of them may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement or any Transaction Document, except for such party’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.
(ii)Each of the Agents, their respective affiliates and their respective representatives shall be entitled to rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter or any other document or security delivered to any of them by or on behalf of the Company.
(iii)Each Buyer represents and warrants, for the express benefit of the Agents, their respective affiliates and their respective representatives, that (A) it has independently made its own analysis and decision to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents based on such information as it deems appropriate and without reliance on the Placement Agents and (B) it is relying exclusively on its own sources of information and advisors with respect to all business, legal, regulatory, accounting, credit and tax matters.
