Common use of Mutual Acknowledgments Clause in Contracts

Mutual Acknowledgments. Both the Partnership and Indemnitee acknowledge that in certain instances, applicable law (including applicable federal law that may preempt or override applicable state law) or public policy may prohibit the Partnership from indemnifying the directors, officers, employees, agents or fiduciaries of the General Partner under this Agreement or otherwise. For example, the Partnership and Indemnitee acknowledge that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has taken the position that indemnification of directors, officers and controlling Persons of the Partnership for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against public policy and, therefore, unenforceable. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Partnership has undertaken or may be required in the future to undertake with the Securities and Exchange Commission to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the Partnership’s right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee. In addition, the Partnership and Indemnitee acknowledge that federal law prohibits indemnifications for certain violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
