Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance (a) For a period beginning at the Effective Time and ending no earlier than seven years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) to the same extent such Persons are indemnified as of the date of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Applicable Law, the Charter Documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and the indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement and set forth in Section 3.10(a)(xiv) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and, solely in the case of the Surviving Company (and not Parent), any other indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement (collectively, and including the indemnification agreements set forth in Section 3.10(a)(xiv) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the “Existing Indemnification Agreements”) arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby). The Surviving Company and Parent shall advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Legal Proceeding with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.16 in accordance with the procedures (if any) set forth in the Charter Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any Existing Indemnification Agreements and any other requirements under Applicable Law; provided, that Parent shall only be required to advance any such expenses to the extent that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Person is not entitled to indemnification (for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing proviso shall not apply with respect to the Surviving Company’s obligation to advance expenses pursuant to this Section 6.16(a)). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Legal Proceeding (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) is made against such persons with respect to matters subject to indemnification hereunder on or prior to the seventh anniversary of the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 6.16(a) shall continue in effect until the final disposition or final resolution of such Legal Proceeding. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.16(a) or otherwise, Parent and the Surviving Company (i) shall not be liable for any settlement effected without their prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (ii) shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Covered Person if it is ultimately decided in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such indemnification is prohibited by Applicable Law, in which case the Covered Person shall promptly refund to Parent or the Surviving Company the amount of all such expenses theretofore advanced pursuant hereto.

Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance (a) The Company shall, and from and after the Effective Time, CSLC and the Surviving Entity shall, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each person who is now, or at any time prior to the date hereof has been or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, an officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against (i) all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement with the approval of the indemnifying party (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding, case or investigation ("Action") based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of or in connection with the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, whether pertaining to any matter existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time ("Indemnified Liabilities") and (ii) all Indemnified Liabilities based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in each case to the fullest extent a corporation is permitted under applicable law to indemnify its own directors, officers and employees, as the case may be and CSLC and the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall pay expenses in advance of the final disposition of any such action or proceeding to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law upon receipt of any undertaking contemplated by applicable law.

Any Indemnified Party electing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.9, upon learning of any such Action, shall promptly notify the Company, CSLC or the Surviving Entity of such election (but the failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 5.9, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices it or if it otherwise forfeits substantive rights and defenses as a result of such failure), and shall deliver to the Company (or after the Effective Time, to CSLC and the Surviving Entity) the undertaking contemplated by applicable law. The Indemnified Parties as a group may retain only one firm of legal counsel to represent them with respect to each such matter unless there is, under applicable standards of professional conduct, a conflict in respect of any significant issue between the positions of any two or more Indemnified Parties.
