Related to Indemnification Claim Limitations Periods

• Indemnification Limitations (a) Purchaser shall be under no liability to indemnify Seller under 10.3.1 and no claim under Section 10.3.1 of this Agreement shall:

• Indemnification Cap In no event shall the aggregate indemnification to be paid by any Seller under this Article VII exceed the greater of (x) the product of the Purchase Price multiplied by the proportion of such Seller’s Company Shares to the total amount of Company Shares (the “Seller Purchase Price”), or (y) the product of (i) the average closing price of the Ordinary Shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market (or succeeding trading market) over the five (5) Business Days preceding the Determination Date (as defined below) multiplied by (ii) the number of Ordinary Shares received by such Seller upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Individual Seller Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Individual Seller Cap shall not apply to claims for indemnification resulting from or relating to breaches by such Seller constituting fraud or intentional misconduct. In no event shall the aggregate indemnification to be paid by Buyer under this Article VI exceed the Purchase Price.

• Indemnification Claims (a) In the event the Parent or the Company Stockholders are entitled, or seek to assert rights, to indemnification under this Article VI, the Parent or the Company Stockholders (as the case may be) shall give written notification to the Company Stockholders or the Parent (as the case may be) of the commencement of any suit or proceeding relating to a third party claim for which indemnification pursuant to this Article VI may be sought. Such notification shall be given within 20 Business Days after receipt by the party seeking indemnification of notice of such suit or proceeding, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the party seeking indemnification) the facts constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the party seeking indemnification in notifying the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the indemnifying party may, upon written notice thereof to the party seeking indemnification, assume control of the defense of such suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party seeking indemnification; provided that the indemnifying party may not assume control of the defense of a suit or proceeding involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the party seeking indemnification. If the indemnifying party does not so assume control of such defense, the party seeking indemnification shall control such defense. The party not controlling such defense (the “Non-Controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided that if the indemnifying party assumes control of such defense and the party seeking indemnification reasonably concludes that the indemnifying party and the party seeking indemnification have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such suit or proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the party seeking indemnification shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-Controlling Party advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-Controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-Controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such suit or proceeding. The indemnifying party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the party seeking indemnification, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the consent of the party seeking indemnification shall not be required if the indemnifying party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the party seeking indemnification from further liability and has no other materially adverse effect on the party seeking indemnification. The party seeking indemnification shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

• Indemnification Limits If the Closing occurs, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined) shall not be entitled to recover any Losses (as hereinafter defined) for breaches of the representations and warranties of the Seller and/or the Company contained herein (a) unless and until the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ aggregate claims therefor exceed $250,000, at which time the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover Losses for all claims in excess of such amount (except that claims for breach of any representation or warranty that is subject to Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifier shall not be subject to the terms of this clause (a) and, subject to all other applicable limitations in this Article 10, the Purchaser shall be allowed to recover for all Losses related thereto), or (b) absent fraud or willful misconduct, for an aggregate amount in excess of $8,500,000; provided that claims for breach of any of the Specified Representations by the Seller or the Company shall not be subject to the foregoing limits (but shall instead be subject to and not exceed the total consideration paid to the Seller) and shall not be included in the determination of whether the limit in clause (b) has been reached. Notwithstanding the limitations on indemnification set forth in Section 10.1 and this Section 10.2, such limitations shall not apply to any claim against the Seller for breach of any representation or warranty that to the knowledge of the Seller or the Company was inaccurate at Closing and which breach was not previously disclosed to the Purchaser in writing prior to the Closing. For all purposes of this Article 10, when determining the amount of the Losses, any Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifier in any such representation or warranty will be disregarded. No Indemnifier shall have any indemnification obligation for (x) punitive damages, except, in all cases, all such damages that are payable by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with a third-party claim or (y) any indirect damages that are not reasonably foreseeable or (z) any damages resulting from positions taken by the Purchaser, the Company or any Subsidiary on any Tax Returns filed by them for any post-closing tax period, even if such positions are the same or similar to positions taken on Tax Returns filed by Seller, the Company or any Subsidiary for any Pre-Closing Taxable Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses for breaches of the representations and warranties of the Seller and/or the Company to the extent based on facts and circumstances that constitute New Matters explicitly reflected in the Updated Disclosure Schedules, if any, unless and until the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ aggregate claims therefor exceed $250,000, at which time the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover Losses for all claims in excess of such amount subject to the other terms of this Article 10. For clarity, delivery of the Updated Disclosure Schedules shall have no effect other than as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

• Indemnification; Third Party Claims (a) The Special Servicer and any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, member, manager or agent of the Special Servicer (the “Special Servicer Indemnified Parties”) shall be indemnified and held harmless out of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loans, any Serviced Companion Loans and any B Notes (including REO Loans), against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (“Special Servicer Losses”) incurred in connection with any legal action relating to (i) this Agreement, any Mortgage Loans, any Serviced Companion Loans, any B Notes, any REO Property or the Certificates or any exercise of any right under this Agreement reasonably requiring the use of counsel or the incurring of expenses and (ii) any action properly taken by the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement based on an instruction delivered in writing to the Special Servicer by the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or the Master Servicer pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and the Special Servicer and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, members, managers and agents shall be entitled to indemnification from the Trust for any loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the provision by the Special Servicer of any information included by the Special Servicer in the report required to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, in each case other than any loss, liability or expense: (A) specifically required to be borne by the party seeking indemnification, without right of reimbursement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (B) which constitutes a Servicing Advance that is otherwise reimbursable under this Agreement; (C) incurred in connection with any legal action or claim against the party seeking indemnification, resulting from any breach on the part of that party of a representation or warranty made in this Agreement; or (D) incurred in connection with any legal action or claim against the party seeking indemnification, resulting from any willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on the part of that party in the performance of its obligations or duties under this Agreement or negligent disregard of such obligations or duties. Except as provided in the following sentence, indemnification for Special Servicer Losses described in the preceding paragraph (including in the case of such Special Servicer Losses that relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense) shall be paid out of collections on, and other proceeds of, the Mortgage Loans as a whole but not out of collections on, or other proceeds of, any Serviced Companion Loan or any B Note. In the case of any such Special Servicer Losses that do not relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense:

• Indemnification Generally (i) The Company, on the one hand, and the Subscriber, on the other hand (each an “Indemnifying Party”), shall indemnify the other from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, charges, actions, proceedings, demands, judgments, settlement costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) resulting from any breach of a representation and warranty, covenant or agreement by the Indemnifying Party and all claims, charges, actions or proceedings incident to or arising out of the foregoing.

• Indemnification Threshold (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article XI until the aggregate Losses suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees exceeds $25,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”), at which point the Seller Group will indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees dollar for dollar for any amounts as if there had been no Indemnification Threshold.

• Mandatory Indemnification; Indemnification as a Witness (i) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses relating to such Claim in accordance with Section 2 to the fullest extent allowable by law, and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 8(b)) shall be required.
