7.2

General Indemnification.

7.2.1HDILP and HDGH shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates (other than HDILP or HDGH) (each of which is an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of investigation, costs of investigative, judicial or administrative proceedings or appeals therefrom, and costs of attachment or similar bonds (collectively, “Losses”), asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of HDILP or HDGH contained in this Agreement from and after the Closing Date.

7.2.2HDILP and HDGH shall, jointly and severally, also indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with or as a result of all fees and expenses of HDILP or HDGH in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.2.3With respect to any claim of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.2, to the extent available, the Investor agrees to use diligent good faith efforts to pursue and collect any and all available proceeds under any insurance policy which covers the matter which is the subject of the indemnification prior to seeking indemnification from HDILP or HDGH until all proceeds, if any, to which the Investor or the Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to such insurance policy have been exhausted; provided, however, that the Investor may make a claim under this Section 7.2 even if an insurance coverage dispute is pending, in which case, if the Indemnified Party later receives insurance proceeds with respect to any Losses paid by HDILP or HDGH for the benefit of any Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall reimburse HDILP or HDGH in an amount equivalent to such proceeds in excess of any deductible amount pursuant to Section 7.4 up to the amount actually paid by HDILP or HDGH to the Indemnified Party in connection with such indemnification (it being understood that all costs and expenses incurred by HDILP and HDGH with respect to insurance coverage disputes shall constitute Losses paid by HDILP or HDGH for purposes of this Section 7.2.3).

7.3Notice and Defense of Claims. As soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any liability or claim incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified Party that is subject to indemnification under this Section 7, the Indemnified Party shall give notice thereof to HDILP and HDGH, including liabilities or claims to be applied against the indemnification deductible established pursuant to Section 7.4; provided that failure to give notice to HDILP and HDGH will not relieve them from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party, unless it did not learn of such claim and such failure results in the forfeiture by HDILP or HDGH of substantial rights and defenses. The Indemnified Party may at its option demand

indemnity under this Section 7 as soon as a claim has been threatened by a third party, regardless of whether an actual Loss has been suffered, so long as the Indemnified Party in conjunction with HDILP or HDGH shall in good faith determine that such claim is not frivolous and that the Indemnified Party may be liable for, or otherwise incur, a Loss as a result thereof and shall give

notice of such determination to HDILP and HDGH. The Indemnified Party shall permit HDILP and HDGH, at their option and expense, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel selected by HDILP and HDGH and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and to settle or otherwise dispose of the same; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may at all times participate in such defense at its expense; and provided further, however, that HDILP and HDGH shall not, in defense of any such claim, except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party in its sole and absolute discretion, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff in question to all Indemnified Parties a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or that does not result only in the payment of money damages which are paid in full by HDILP or HDGH. If HDILP and HDGH shall fail to undertake such defense within 30 days after such notice, or within such shorter time as may be reasonable under the circumstances or as required by applicable law, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such liability or claim on behalf of and for the account of HDILP and HDGH at their sole cost and expense.

7.4Limitations on Indemnification Under Section 7.2.1. HDILP and HDGH shall not be liable under Section 7.2.1 unless and until the total amount recoverable by the Indemnified Parties from HDILP and HDGH under Section 7.2.1 exceeds $100,000.00, in the aggregate (the “Basket”); provided, however, that claims for Losses exceeding the Basket shall be recoverable from the first dollar of Losses. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Losses arising out of a breach of representations or warranties contained in Sections 6.1, 6.2, and 6.29 shall not be subject to the Basket and shall be recoverable from the first dollar of Losses.

7.5Indemnification by Investor. From and after the Closing Date, the Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless HDILP and HDGH and their directors, officers, managers, members, employees, agents and representatives, as well as its affiliates (each of which is an “Indemnified HD Party”) from and against any Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Indemnified HD Party in connection with or as a result of (i) all fees, costs and expenses of the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) the failure of the Investor after the Closing Date to perform any obligation required to be performed pursuant to any contract or obligation assigned to and assumed by the Investor.

7.6Matters Excluded from Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Investor shall have no obligation under this Agreement to indemnify or hold harmless HDILP and HDGH from any Losses arising as a direct result of breach of this Agreement by, or the negligence of, HDILP and HDGH.

7.7Offset. To the extent HDILP or HDGH fail to comply with the terms of this Section 7, the Investor may be entitled to offset such obligations against the Series T Units that may be issued to the owners of HDGH under the LLC Amendment by reducing the contribution or conversion values or the Series T Units accordingly.

obligations hereunder;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision is not intended to limit the Investor’s obligations to indemnify HDILP or HDGH for certain matters as expressly provided in this Agreement nor is it intended to limit the Investor’s ability to terminate this Agreement as provided herein.

8.3Default by HDILP or HDGH. If HDILP or HDGH fails to perform any of their closing obligations, then HDILP and HDGH will have 10 business days to cure after receipt of written notice from the Investor; if any of HDILP’s or HDGH’s representations or warranties set forth herein are determined to be materially inaccurate or untrue when made and such failure continues for 15 business days after written notice thereof from the Investor (or such longer period as reasonably required by HDILP or HDGH to effect such cure, but in no event more than 30 days) or the Closing Date if earlier, then the Investor, at the Investor’s option and as the Investor’s sole and exclusive remedies, shall have the right to (i) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to HDILP and HDGH, whereupon HDILP and HDGH shall reimburse the Investor for all of the Investor’s third party actual documented reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (the “Investor’s Breakage Fee”) and thereafter, none of the parties shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except matters which survive termination, (ii) pursue a damage claim not to exceed the actual out of pocket expenses (“Breakage Fee”) (plus a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit) or (iii) enforce specific performance of the obligations of HDILP and HDGH under this Agreement. Any suit for specific performance must be filed within 180 days after the Closing Date or shall thereafter be barred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision is not intended to limit the HDILP’s and HDGH’s obligations to indemnify the Investor for certain matters as expressly provided in this

Agreement.
