Section 6.3 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after any Partnership Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle any such action or claim, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or (B) if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, includes a complete release from liability of, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party.

The Partnership shall furnish to the Purchasers at the applicable Closing an opinion of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP, counsel for the Partnership, addressed to the Purchasers and dated the applicable Closing Date in form reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasers, stating that:
i. | To our knowledge, except as described in the Partnership SEC Documents filed prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, there are no outstanding options, warrants, or agreements for the purchase or acquisition from the Partnership of Partnership securities or ownership interests in the Partnership, or rights to convert any obligations into or exchange any securities for Partnership securities or ownership interests in the Partnership. |
ii. | No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Purchased Units, the execution, delivery and performance by the Partnership of the Operative Documents or the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents, except for (a) those required by the Commission in connection with the Partnership’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement and (b) those that have been obtained or as may be required under state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, as to which we do not express any opinion. |
iii. | To our knowledge, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between any of the Teekay Entities and any person granting such person the right to require any of the Teekay Entities to file a registration statement under the Act with respect to any securities of the Partnership owned or to be owned by such person or to require any of the Teekay Entities to include such securities in any securities being registered pursuant to any other registration statement filed by any Teekay Entity under the Act, except for any such rights held by the General Partner or an Affiliate (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the General Partner pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. |
iv. | None of the offering, issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Purchased Units, the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents by the Partnership, or the completion of the transactions contemplated thereby conflicts with or constitutes a breach or violation of, or a default under (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default), any indenture, contract, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2014 (including any document filed as an exhibit to any document incorporated by reference therein) (collectively, the “Material Agreements”). (We do not comment or opine as to compliance with any financial covenants or financial ratios contained in any such documents.) |
v. | Based in part upon the Partnership’s and the Purchaser’s representations and warranties in, and on the facts and circumstances contemplated by, the Purchase Agreement, the offer, |
Exhibit A to Series C Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement
issuance and sale of the Purchased Units by the Partnership to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement do not require registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act. (We do not comment or opine as to any subsequent sale of the Purchased Units.) |

ii. | Each of the General Partner and the OLP GP has been duly formed and is validly existing in good standing as a limited liability company under Xxxxxxxx Islands Law, and each has the limited liability company power and authority to own or lease its properties and to conduct its business, in each case in all material respects as described in the SEC Documents. |

iv. | The Units to be issued and sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the limited partner interests represented thereby have been duly authorized in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and, when issued and delivered to the purchaser thereof against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid (to the extent required under the Partnership Agreement) and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections 30, 41, 51 and 60 of the Xxxxxxxx Islands Limited Partnership Act and except as may otherwise be provided in the Partnership Agreement). |
v. | Except as described in the SEC Documents, and except as contained in Articles V, VII, XI, XV and XVI of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership Agreement does not contain any preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase any limited partner interests in the Partnership. |
vi. | The execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the offering, issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Units in accordance with and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, do not (i) conflict with or constitute a violation of the organizational documents of any of the Teekay Parties or the Xxxxxxxx |
Exhibit B to Series C Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement
Islands Significant Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with or constitute a breach or violation of, or a default under (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default), the agreements or instruments governed by Xxxxxxxx Islands Law or New York Law and listed on Schedule 2 hereto, (iii) violate Xxxxxxxx Islands Law or New York Law, or (iv) violate any judgment, order or decree of which we are aware of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority situated in the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands directed to any of the Teekay Parties or the Xxxxxxxx Islands Significant Subsidiaries in a proceeding before such court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority in the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands to which any of them is a party. |
