Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims If a claim by a third party (including claims for breaches of fiduciary duties) is made against an Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto from the Company (in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party seeking such indemnity) or the Purchaser (in the case of a Company Indemnified Party seeking indemnity) (each of the Company or the Purchaser, as the case may be, in such capacity, an “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give notice in writing as promptly as reasonably practicable to such Indemnifying Party of any Proceeding commenced against or by it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have on account of this Article VI, so long as such failure shall not have materially prejudiced the position of such Indemnifying Party. Upon such notification, the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding brought by a third party, and, after such assumption, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any expenses thereafter incurred by it in connection with such Proceeding, except as described below. In any such Proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel (including local counsel), but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to promptly assume and thereafter conduct such defense, (ii) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (iii) in the reasonable determination of counsel for the Indemnified Party, representation of such Indemnified Party by counsel obtained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of a third-party claim, shall, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to 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 to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by such Indemnifying Party), but if settled with such consent or if there be final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party will advance expenses to an Indemnified Party as reasonably incurred so long as such indemnified party shall have provided the indemnifying party with a written undertaking to reimburse the indemnifying party for all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder (which shall include breaches of fiduciary duty if permitted above).
Indemnification for Taxes (a) Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against all Taxes imposed on the Company: (i) for any Pre-Closing Period; (ii) pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or a comparable provision of state, local or foreign Law) solely by virtue of the Company’s being or having been a member of a consolidated, combined, or unitary Tax group on or prior to the Closing Date, (iii) with respect to Taxes that arise in and are attributable to a Pre-Closing Period, as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise, (iv) with respect to Taxes that arise in and are attributable to a Post-Closing Period, as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise, in each case, but only to the extent such Taxes imposed on the Company as a transferee, successor, by contract or otherwise relate to transactions entered into by the Company on or prior to the Closing Date outside the ordinary course of business; and (v) for Transfer Taxes allocable to Seller pursuant to Section 6.7, and (vi) for any Post-Closing Period as a result of the change in accounting method made by Paribas North America, Inc. with respect to the timing of deductibility of bonus payments (as reflected as item 5 of Schedule 3.9 hereof), with the amount of such Taxes calculated for purposes of this clause (vi) determined (A) by treating the Company on a stand alone basis (and not as a member of a combined, consolidated or unitary group), and (B) without regard to any available net operating loss carryovers from prior taxable years, and without regard to other items of income, gain, loss, or deduction with respect to the then current taxable year (but applying the net aggregate effective rate of Tax of the Company with respect to such Tax for such year to the income resulting from such change in accounting method); provided, that Seller shall not be liable, and shall not indemnify Purchaser, for any liability for Taxes (w) incurred as a result of a deemed or actual election under Section 338 of the Code with respect to the purchase of the Company pursuant to this Agreement; (x) that was reflected as a liability reducing Closing Working Capital, with such Closing Working Capital amount reduced by any amounts paid to Seller pursuant to clause (iii) of the second sentence of Section 6.8 and the last sentence of Section 6.8; (y) that is commercially reasonable for the Company to recover from a Person other than Purchaser or the Company (provided that the Seller shall agree to reimburse the Company for reasonable out of pocket costs incurred by the Company in connection with recovering such amounts); or (z) resulting from transactions or actions taken by Purchaser or by the Company at the request of Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date.
Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Third Party Claims (a) In order for a party (the “indemnified party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim or demand made by any person against the indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), such indemnified party must notify the indemnifying party in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim within ten (10) business days after receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the indemnified party failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Third Party Claim.
Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims (a) In the event that any party (the “Indemnified Person”) desires to make a claim against any other party (the “Indemnifying Person”) in connection with any Losses for which the Indemnified Person may seek indemnification hereunder in respect of a claim or demand made by any Person not a party to this Agreement against the Indemnified Person (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Person must notify the Indemnifying Person in writing, of the Third-Party Claim (a “Third-Party Claim Notice”) as promptly as reasonably possible after receipt, but in no event later than fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt, by such Indemnified Person of notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, that failure to give a Third-Party Claim Notice on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Upon receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Person’s election, to assume or participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the cost of Indemnifying Person. In any case in which the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall give the Indemnified Person ten (10) calendar days’ notice prior to executing any settlement agreement and the Indemnified Person shall have the right to approve or reject the settlement and related expenses; provided, however, that upon rejection of any settlement and related expenses, the Indemnified Person shall assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the liability of the Indemnifying Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim shall be limited to the amount or the monetary equivalent of the rejected settlement and related expenses.
Indemnification Matters The Company hereby acknowledges that one (1) or more of the directors nominated to serve on the Board of Directors by the Investors (each a “Fund Director”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more of the Investors and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (a) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any such Fund Director are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Fund Director are secondary), (b) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Fund Director and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of any such Fund Director to the extent legally permitted and as required by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company (or any agreement between the Company and such Fund Director), without regard to any rights such Fund Director may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and, (c) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of any such Fund Director with respect to any claim for which such Fund Director has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Fund Director against the Company.
Third-Party Claim Indemnification Procedures (a) In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder, other than those relating to Taxes (which are the exclusive subject of Article X), is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third-Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third-Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure timely to give a Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a litigated matter) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim.
Indemnification by Buyer Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, Buyer shall indemnify and defend each of Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:
Indemnification by Buyers Buyers covenant and agree to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Seller and InVivo, and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) at all times from and after the date of this Agreement from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, adjustments, costs and expenses (including specifically, but without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of investigation), whether or not involving a third party claim and regardless of any negligence of any Seller Indemnified Party (collectively, “Losses”), incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party as a result of or arising from (i) any breach of the representations and warranties of Buyers set forth herein or in certificates delivered in connection herewith, (ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement (including any other agreement of Buyers to indemnify set forth in this Agreement) on the part of Buyers under this Agreement, (iii) any Assigned Asset or Assigned Liability or any other debt, liability or obligation of Split-Off Subsidiary, (iv) the conduct and operations, whether before or after Closing, of (A) the business of Seller pertaining to the Assigned Assets and Assigned Liabilities or (B) the business of Split-Off Subsidiary, (v) claims asserted, whether before or after Closing, (A) against Split-Off Subsidiary or (B) pertaining to the Assigned Assets and Assigned Liabilities, or (vi) any federal or state income tax payable by Seller or InVivo and attributable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The obligations of Buyers under this Section, as between Buyers and the Seller Indemnified Parties, are joint and several.
Indemnification Claim Procedures (a) If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against any person obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Party (an “Indemnitor”), then such Indemnified Party will promptly give notice to the Indemnitor. Failure to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such Action is materially and irrevocably prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice. An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnitor will not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Indemnification Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be withheld unreasonably). Until an Indemnitor assumes the defense of the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Indemnification Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party reasonably deems appropriate. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within ten (10) days after such notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Indemnification Claim and thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnitor will be bound by any judicial determination made with respect to such Indemnification Claim or any compromise or settlement of such Indemnification Claim effected by the Indemnified Party.
