Cooperation in Defense and Settlement Indemnitee shall not make any admission or effect any settlement of any Proceeding without the Company’s written consent unless Indemnitee shall have determined to undertake his or her own defense in such matter and has waived the benefits of this Agreement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party in any manner which would impose any Expense on Indemnitee without his or her written consent. Neither Indemnitee nor the Company will unreasonably withhold consent to any proposed settlement. Indemnitee and the Company shall cooperate to the extent reasonably possible with each other and with the Company’s insurers, in attempts to defend and/or settle such Proceeding.
Litigation and Regulatory Cooperation During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall cooperate fully with the Company in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of the Company which relate to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was employed by the Company. The Executive’s full cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually convenient times. During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any investigation or review of any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or review relates to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was employed by the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Executive’s performance of obligations pursuant to this Section 7(f).
Defense and Settlement of Third Party Claims (i) The Indemnifying Person shall have 30 days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceedings in the event of a litigated matter) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Person that it desires to assume the defense of the Indemnified Person against the Third-Party Claim specified in such Claim Notice. In the event that the Indemnifying Person notifies the Indemnified Person within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified Person against any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Person by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense at its expense. Once the Indemnifying Person has duly assumed the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing. The Indemnified Person shall participate in any such defense at its expense (which expense shall not constitute a Loss) unless the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person are both named parties to the proceedings and the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded, based on the written advice of counsel, that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing material interests between them. The Indemnifying Person shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that no such prior written consent of the Indemnified Person shall be required to any proposed settlement that involves only the payment of money by the Indemnifying Person, includes as an unconditional term thereof the granting by the person asserting such claim or bringing such action of an unconditional release from liability to all Indemnified Parties with respect to such claim; such proposed settlement is not dispositive with respect to other claims that may be made by any Indemnified Person; no injunctive or equitable is entered against any Indemnified Person; that the proposed settlement contains no requirement for a press release or other public statement that would likely have a negative impact on any Indemnified Person; and the proposed settlement does not include any admission of culpability.
Defense and Settlement The Receiver shall have the right, in its discretion, to (i) defend or settle any claim or suit against the Assuming Institution with respect to which the Receiver has indemnified the Assuming Institution in the same manner and to the same extent as provided in Article XII, and (ii) defend or settle any claim or suit against the Assuming Institution with respect to any Liability Assumed, which claim or suit may result in a loss to the Receiver arising out of or related to this Agreement, or which existed against the Failed Bank on or before the Bank Closing Date. The exercise by the Receiver of any rights under this Section 9.3(a) shall not release the Assuming Institution with respect to any of its obligations under this Agreement.
Clearance and Settlement If the Pricing Agreement specifies that the Securities will clear and settle through one or more clearing systems, the Securities will be eligible for clearance and settlement through such clearing system or systems.
Mitigation and Set-Off The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. The Company shall not be entitled to set off against the amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement any amounts owed to the Company by the Executive, any amounts earned by the Executive in other employment after termination of his employment with the Company, or any amounts which might have been earned by the Executive in other employment had he sought such other employment.
Settlement of Disputes between the Contracting Parties 1. Disputes between the Contracting Parties concerning the interpretation or application of this Agreement should, if possible, be settled through diplomatic channels.
Tax Cooperation The Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with one another and use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, Tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made by the paying Party to the receiving Party under this Agreement (“Withholding Taxes”). If Withholding Taxes are imposed on any payment under this Agreement, the liability for such Withholding Taxes shall be the sole responsibility of the receiving Party, and the paying Party shall (i) deduct or withhold such Withholding Taxes from the payment made to the receiving Party, (ii) timely pay such Withholding Taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) send proof of payment to the receiving Party within thirty (30) days following such payment. If and to the extent the paying Party failed to retain Withholding Taxes (e.g. because the Parties assumed that Withholding Taxes will not be imposed) or if Withholding Taxes are imposed on “deemed payments” the receiving Party shall reimburse the paying Party for any Withholding Tax obligation vis-à-vis the tax authorities. Each Party shall comply with (or provide the other Party with) any certification, identification or other reporting requirements that may be reasonably necessary in order for the paying Party to not withhold Withholding Taxes or to withhold Withholding Taxes at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with commercially reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Laws, of Withholding Taxes or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing the cost of such Withholding Taxes under this Section 16.5(d) (Tax Cooperation). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if as a result of any assignment or sublicense by the paying Party, any change in the paying Party’s tax residency, any change in the entity that originates the payment, or any failure on the part of the paying Party to comply with Applicable Laws with respect to Withholding Taxes (including filing or record retention requirements), Withholding Taxes are imposed that would not otherwise have been imposed (“Incremental Withholding Taxes”), then the paying Party shall be solely responsible for the amount of such Incremental Withholding Taxes and shall increase the amounts payable to the receiving Party so that the receiving Party receives a sum equal to the sum which it would have received had there been no such imposition of Incremental Withholding Taxes. If a Party makes a payment in accordance with the sentence above (gross-up) (“Tax Payment”) and
