Defense of Claim In case any claim, demand or deficiency (a “Claim”) is asserted or any action is commenced or notice is given of any administrative or other proceeding against a party hereto (“Indemnified Party”) in respect of which indemnity properly sought against the other party (“Indemnitor”) pursuant to this Agreement, Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice thereof in writing to Indemnitor. Within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or prior to such earlier date as any answer in any administrative or other proceeding is due), Indemnitor may give Indemnified Party written notice of its election to conduct the defense of such Claim at its own expense (and any separate counsel engaged by Indemnified Party shall be at its expense). If Indemnitor has given Indemnified Party such notice of election to conduct the defense, Indemnified Party shall nevertheless have the right to participate in the defense thereof, but such participation shall be solely at its expense. If Indemnitor shall not notify Indemnified Party in writing (within the time hereinabove provided) of its election to conduct the defense of such Claim, Indemnified Party may (but need not) conduct (at the expense of Indemnitor) the defense of any Claim. The party assuming the defense of a Claim hereunder (the “Defending Party”) shall notify the other party of its intention to settle, compromise or satisfy any such Claim and may make such settlement, compromise or satisfaction unless such other party (the “Assuming Party”) shall notify the Defending Party in writing (within 30 days after receipt of such notice of intention to settle, compromise or satisfy) of its election to assume (at its sole expense) the defense of any such Claim and promptly thereafter take appropriate action to implement such defense. The Assuming Party shall indemnify the Defending Party and hold it harmless against any losses in excess of the amount of losses the Defending Party would have incurred if the proposed settlement had been agreed to. Indemnified Party shall cooperate with Indemnitor in any defense, at Indemnitor’s cost, and Indemnified Party shall provide reasonable access to, and copies of, records requested by Indemnitor and shall provide the reasonable assistance of Indemnified Party’s employees in connection with any defense.
Right to Petition Court In the event that Indemnitee makes a request for payment of Indemnifiable Amounts under Sections 3 and 5 above or a request for an advancement of Indemnifiable Expenses under Sections 8 and 9 above and the Company fails to make such payment or advancement in a timely manner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery to enforce the Company’s obligations under this Agreement.
Dismissal with Prejudice The Class Action and all Released Claims shall be dismissed with prejudice.
Notice; Defense of Claims An indemnified party may make claims for indemnification hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the indemnifying party within the period in which indemnification claims can be made hereunder. If indemnification is sought for a claim or liability asserted by a third party, the indemnified party shall also give written notice thereof to the indemnifying party promptly after it receives notice of the claim or liability being asserted, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability except to the extent that it is prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the bases for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being asserted by a third party. Within 20 days after receiving such notice the indemnifying party shall give written notice to the indemnified party stating whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend against any third party claim or liability at its own cost and expense. If the indemnifying party fails to give notice that it disputes an indemnification claim within 20 days after receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the claim, which shall become immediately due and payable. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to direct the defense against a third party claim or liability with counsel selected by it (subject to the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) as long as the indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and diligent defense. The indemnified party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in the defense of a third party claim or liability at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, that if the named parties to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party is advised that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the indemnified party may engage separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend a third party claim or liability is given by the indemnifying party, or if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be conducted by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right, at the expense of the indemnifying party, to undertake the defense of such claim or liability (with counsel selected by the indemnified party), and to compromise or settle it, exercising reasonable business judgment. If the third party claim or liability is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall make available such information and assistance as the indemnifying party may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in such defense, at the expense of the indemnifying party.
Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit If a claim under Section 5.4 or 5.5 is not paid in full by the Company within 60 calendar days after a written claim has been received by the Company, except in the case of a claim for an Advancement of Expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be 20 calendar days, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Company to recover an Advancement of Expenses pursuant to the terms of an Undertaking, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (a) any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to an Advancement of Expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (b) any suit brought by the Company to recover an Advancement of Expenses pursuant to the terms of an Undertaking, the Company shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a Final Adjudication that, the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law as if the Company were a Delaware corporation. Neither the failure of the Company (including the Sole Member, the Managers or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met any applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law as if the Company were a Delaware corporation, nor an actual determination by the Company (including the Sole Member, the Managers or independent legal counsel) that the Indemnitee has not met any such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Indemnitee, be a defense to such
Waiver of Claim To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, any Loan Party and/or any Related Party of any thereof, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof, except, in the case of any claim by any Indemnitee against the Borrower, to the extent such damages would otherwise be subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 9.03.
Defense of Claims Subject to the provisions of applicable policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, if any, the Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Indemnifiable Claim or to assume or lead the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee; provided that if Indemnitee determines, after consultation with counsel selected by Indemnitee, that (a) the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict, (b) the named parties in any such Indemnifiable Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and Indemnitee and Indemnitee shall conclude that there may be one or more legal defenses available to him or her that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company, (c) any such representation by such counsel would be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, or (d) Indemnitee has interests in the claim or underlying subject matter that are different from or in addition to those of other Persons against whom the Claim has been made or might reasonably be expected to be made, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any particular Indemnifiable Claim for all indemnitees in Indemnitee’s circumstances) at the Company’s expense. The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim effected without the Company’s prior written consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim which the Indemnitee is or could have been a party unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money and includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnifiable Claim. Neither the Company nor Indemnitee shall unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed settlement; provided that Indemnitee may withhold consent to any settlement that does not provide a complete and unconditional release of Indemnitee.
Right of Action All rights of action in respect to this Agreement are vested in the respective registered holders of the Warrant Certificates; and any registered holder of any Warrant Certificate, without the consent of the Warrant Agent or of any other holder of a Warrant Certificate, may, in his own behalf for his own benefit, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company suitable to enforce, or otherwise in respect of, his right to exercise the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate, for the purchase of shares of the Common Stock in the manner provided in the Warrant Certificate and in this Agreement.
ADVANCES OF EXPENSES; DEFENSE OF CLAIM (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary except for Section 27, and to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company shall pay the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee within three months) in connection with any Proceeding within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, prior to the final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing a Proceeding to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. To the fullest extent required by applicable law, such payments of Expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon the Company’s receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Indemnitee, to repay the advanced amounts to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Agreement, the Charter, the Bylaws of the Company, applicable law or otherwise. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that Indemnitee was not so entitled to indemnification, any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnitee. This Section 10(a) shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which an indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payment is excluded pursuant to Section 9 but shall apply to any Proceeding referenced in Section 9(b) prior to a final determination that Indemnitee is liable therefor. (b) The Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense. (c) The Company shall not settle any action, claim or Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, judgment, fine, penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent.
Purchaser's Election to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings (a) In connection with any Mortgage Loan identified in a report under Section 2.01(a)(i)(B), the Purchaser may elect to instruct the Company to cause, to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such authority in the related Servicing Agreement, the related Servicer to proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure as soon as practicable. Such election must be evidenced by written notice received by the Company by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day following the delivery of such report under Section 2.01(a)(i). (b) Within two Business Days of making any Election to Foreclose, the Purchaser shall remit to the Company, for deposit in the Collateral Fund, an amount, as calculated by the Company, equal to 125% of the current unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and three months interest on the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate. If and when any such Mortgage Loan is brought current by the mortgagor, all amounts in the Collateral Fund in respect of such Mortgage Loan (after adjustment for all permitted withdrawals and deposits pursuant to this Agreement) shall be released to the Purchaser if and to the extent that reimbursement therefor from amounts paid by the mortgagor is not prohibited pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related Servicing Agreement, applicable law or the related mortgage note. The terms of this Agreement will no longer apply to the servicing of any Mortgage Loan upon the failure of the Purchaser to deposit the above amounts relating to the Mortgage Loan within two Business Days of the Election to Foreclose subject to Section 3.01. (c) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has made an Election to Foreclose, the related Servicer shall continue to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with its customary procedures (other than Commencement of Foreclosure as provided herein). In connection therewith, the Company shall have the same rights to make withdrawals for Monthly Advances and Liquidations Expenses from the Collateral Fund as are provided under Section 2.02(e), and the Company shall make reimbursements thereto to the limited extent provided under such subsection in accordance with its customary procedures. The Company shall not be required to cause, to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such authority in the related Servicing Agreement, the related Servicer to proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure if (i) the same is stayed as a result of the mortgagor's bankruptcy or is otherwise barred by applicable law, or to the extent that all legal conditions precedent thereto have not yet been complied with, or (ii) the Company believes there is a breach of representations or warranties by the Company, a Servicer, or a Seller, which may result in a repurchase or substitution of such Mortgage Loan, or (iii) the Company or related Servicer reasonably believes the Mortgaged Property may be contaminated with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances (and, without limiting the related Servicer's right not to proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure, the Company supplies the Purchaser with information supporting such belief). Any foreclosure that has been initiated may be discontinued (x) without notice to the Purchaser if the Mortgage Loan has been brought current or if a refinancing or prepayment occurs with respect to the Mortgage Loan (including by means of a short payoff approved by the Purchaser) or (y) with notice to the Purchaser if the related Servicer has reached the terms of a forbearance agreement unless instructed otherwise by the Purchaser within two Business Days of such notification. Any such instruction shall be based upon a decision that such forbearance agreement is not in conformity with reasonable servicing practices. (d) Upon the occurrence of a liquidation with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser made an Election to Foreclose and as to which the related Servicer proceeded with the Commencement of Foreclosure in accordance with subsection (c) above, the Company shall calculate the amount, if any, by which the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time of liquidation (plus all unreimbursed interest and servicing advances and Liquidation Expenses in connection therewith other than those paid from the Collateral Fund) exceeds the actual sales price obtained for the related Mortgaged Property, and the Company shall withdraw the amount of such excess from the Collateral Fund, shall remit the same to the Trust Estate and in its capacity as Master Servicer shall apply such amount as additional Liquidation Proceeds pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. After making such withdrawal, all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund (after adjustment for all withdrawals and deposits pursuant to subsection (c) in respect of such Mortgage Loan shall be released to the Purchaser.
