Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any Claim subject to this Section 7 shall, from time to time, upon request by the Indemnitee, be advanced by the LLC prior to the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the LLC of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount, together with interest on any such advance or advances at the rate equal to the lesser of (i) two percentage points above the “Federal short-term rate” as defined in the Internal Revenue Code section 1274(d)(1)(C)(i) and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, promptly upon (and in no event more than ten days after) a determination in a judicial proceeding or a binding arbitration that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.

7.4 Notice

Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim, an Indemnitee will, if indemnification in respect thereof is to be sought against the LLC under this Section 7, notify the LLC of the initiation thereof, but the omission so to notify the LLC will not relieve the LLC from any liability that the LLC may have to such Indemnitee otherwise than under this Section 7, or under this Section 7, except to the extent that the LLC is adversely affected by such lack of notice.
