The Servicer, the Special Servicer, and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents (each, a "SERVICER INDEMNIFIED PARTY" and, collectively, the "SERVICER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") shall be indemnified by the Issuer and held harmless against any loss, liability, claim, demand or expense relating to this Indenture, the Note Indebtedness, the Underlying Loans, the Collateral, or the Security Documents, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, of its duties hereunder or by reason of negligent disregard of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, of its obligations and duties hereunder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if it is found that any such claim or liability has resulted from the bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, in the performance by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, of its duties hereunder, such Servicer Indemnified Party shall repay such portion of the reimbursed amounts that is attributable to expenses incurred in relation to its act or omission which is the subject of such finding.

Upon assumption by the Issuer of the defense of any such action or proceeding, such Servicer Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such action or proceeding and to retain its own counsel, but the Issuer shall not be liable for any legal fees or expenses subsequently incurred by such Servicer Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the Issuer has agreed to pay such fees and expenses or (ii) counsel provided by the Issuer pursuant to the foregoing is counsel to the Issuer and such Servicer Indemnified Party shall have been advised by such counsel that representation of such Servicer Indemnified Party by such counsel provided by the Issuer pursuant to the foregoing would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between the Issuer and such Servicer Indemnified Party, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to such Servicer Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Issuer shall not, in connection with any such action or proceeding, or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time, in addition to any local counsel, for all such Servicer Indemnified Parties. The Issuer shall not consent to the terms of any compromise or settlement of any action defended by the Issuer in accordance with the foregoing without the prior consent of the Servicer Indemnified Party. The Issuer shall not be required to indemnify any Servicer Indemnified Party for any amount paid or payable by such Servicer Indemnified Party in settlement of any action, proceeding or investigation without the prior written consent of the Issuer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Promptly after receipt by any Servicer Indemnified Party of notice of its involvement (or the involvement of any of its affiliates or such affiliate's directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees) in any action, proceeding or investigation, such Servicer Indemnified Party shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against the Issuer hereunder, notify the Issuer in writing of such involvement, but the failure of such Servicer Indemnified Party to provide such notice shall neither cause the forfeiture of the right to receive indemnity hereunder nor limit such right, except to the extent, if any, that the Issuer is prejudiced by the failure of the Servicer Indemnified Party to promptly give such notice. This indemnity shall survive termination or resignation of the Servicer or Special Servicer or termination of the Indenture. Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties under this Indenture or which in the Servicer's or Special Servicer's opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, subject to the rights of the Majority Holders set forth in Section 5.12(a), the Servicer or Special Servicer may, in its discretion, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Indenture and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Holders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Issuer payable from the Collateral. The indemnification provided herein is limited in each case to actual damages and does not extend to consequential damages.
