Defense by Indemnitee If an Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such claim, the Indemnitee will, upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party, have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of and for the account of the Indemnifying Party subject to the limitations as set forth in this Section 5.4; provided, however, that such Third Party Claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnitee assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, it shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall reimburse all such costs and expenses of the Indemnitee in the event it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim. In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be liable for any settlement effected without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Expenses; Indemnification Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower will pay (a) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Arranger (including the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket expenses and other reasonable expenses of counsel) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Documents and any other agreements or documents referred to herein or therein and any amendments thereto, (b) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket expenses and other reasonable expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) in connection with the enforcement and protection of the rights of the Lenders under this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Documents or any other agreement or document referred to herein or therein, and (c) all reasonable and customary costs and expenses of periodic audits by the Administrative Agent’s personnel of the Borrower’s books and records provided that prior to an Event of Default, the Borrower shall be required to pay for only one such audit during any year. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Lenders, their Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Indemnified Party is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Borrowing hereunder, except that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnified Party to the extent that any losses, claims, etc. are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s Gross Negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower or the General Partner or the Borrower’s or the General Partner’s equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party is otherwise party thereto. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Expenses Indemnification Etc (a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Obligors will pay all expenses in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments or waivers (whether or not the same become effective) under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Operative Agreements, including, without limitation: (i) the costs and expenses of preparing and reproducing this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements, of furnishing all opinions by counsel for the Obligors or the general partner of Star Gas (including any opinions requested by the Purchasers' special counsel, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx, as to any legal matter arising hereunder) and all certificates on behalf of the Obligors or the general partner of Star Gas, and of the Obligors' or the general partner of Star Gas's performance of and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained herein on its part to be performed or complied with; (ii) the cost of delivering to each Purchaser's principal office, insured to such Purchaser's satisfaction, the Notes sold to such Purchaser hereunder and any Notes delivered to such Purchaser upon any substitution thereof pursuant to Section 14 and of such Purchaser's delivering any Notes, insured to such Purchaser's satisfaction, upon any such substitution; (iii) the fees, expenses and disbursements of the Purchasers' special counsel, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx, and the Purchasers' local counsel in connection with such transactions and any such amendments or waivers; (iv) the costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by any Purchaser or any subsequent holder of a Note in enforcing (or determining whether or how to enforce) any rights under this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement including, without limitation, the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or by reason of any Purchaser or any subsequent holder of Notes having acquired any Note, including without limitation, costs and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy case; (v) the cost and expenses of obtaining a Private Placement Number for each series of the Notes; and (vi) the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Purchaser in connection with such transactions and any such amendments or waivers. The Obligors also will pay, and will save the Purchasers and each other holder of any Notes harmless from, all claims in respect of the fees, if any, of brokers and finders (unless engaged by the Purchasers) and any and all liabilities with respect to any taxes (including interest and penalties) which may be payable in respect of the execution and delivery hereof, the issue of the Notes hereunder and any amendment or waiver under or in respect hereof or of the Notes. In furtherance of the foregoing, on the date of the Closing, the Obligors will pay the fees and disbursements of the Purchasers' special counsel which are reflected as unpaid in the statement of Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx, their special counsel, delivered to Star Gas prior to the date of the Closing; and thereafter the Obligors will pay, promptly upon receipt of supplemental statements therefor from time to time, additional fees, if any, and disbursements of the Purchasers' special counsel in connection with the transactions hereby contemplated (including unposted disbursements as of the date of the Closing).
Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (a) Given that certain Jointly Indemnifiable Claims may arise, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause any Enterprise to (i) be fully and primarily responsible for, and be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to, payment to or payment on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of Expenses in connection with any such Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, irrespective of any right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from the Third-Party Indemnitors, and (ii) be required to advance the full amount of Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement to the extent not prohibited by (and not merely to the extent affirmatively permitted by) applicable law and as required by the terms of this Agreement, without regard to any rights the Indemnitee may have against the Third-Party Indemnitors. Under no circumstance shall the Company or any Enterprise be entitled to, and the Company hereby irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases, any claims against the Third-Party Indemnitors for subrogation, contribution or recovery of any kind and no right of advancement or recovery the Indemnitee may have from the Third-Party Indemnitors shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Company or any Enterprise. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by any Third-Party Indemnitor on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any Proceeding for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification, exoneration or hold harmless rights from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Third-Party Indemnitor(s) shall have a right to receive from the Company, contribution and/or be subrogated, to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The Company and the Indemnitee agree that each of the Third-Party Indemnitors shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Agreement entitled to enforce this Section 14 as though each such Third-Party Indemnitor were a party to this Agreement.
Costs and Expenses; Indemnification Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrower is obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders (or Bank Product Providers). In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s ratable thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any Defaulting Lender in failing to make an Advance or other extension of credit hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.
Service by Indemnitee Indemnitee will serve and/or continue to serve as an independent or non-independent director or officer of the Corporation faithfully and to the best of Indemnitee's ability so long as Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed and until such time as Indemnitee is removed as permitted by law or tenders a resignation in writing.
Fees and Expenses; Indemnification The Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Guarantor and the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder and to reimburse the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Trust Preferred Guarantee (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Guarantor agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person for, and to hold each Indemnified Person harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including taxes other than taxes based on the income of any such Indemnified Person) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against, or investigating, any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Guarantor, notify the Guarantor in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that, failure to give such prompt notice shall not impair the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder except to the extent that such failure to provide notice materially prejudices the Guarantor. The Guarantor shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the Guarantor’s choice at the Guarantor’s expense to represent the Indemnified Persons in any action for which indemnification is sought; provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Persons. The Guarantor will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 7.02 shall survive the termination of this Trust Preferred Guarantee or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee.
Expenses and Indemnification (a) The Fund shall upon demand either, as the Purchaser may require, pay in the first instance or reimburse the Purchaser (to the extent that payments for the following items are not made under the other provisions hereof) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and costs of outside counsel, and reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking, and similar professional fees and charges) incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of rights under this Agreement. The Fund shall not be responsible under this Section 7.3(a) for the fees and costs of more than one law firm in any one jurisdiction with respect to any one proceeding or set of related proceedings for the Purchaser, unless the Purchaser shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Fund.
Services by Indemnitee Indemnitee will serve as a director or officer of the Company. However, this Agreement shall not impose any independent obligation on Indemnitee or the Company to continue Indemnitee’s service to the Company. This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any other entity) and Indemnitee.
Payment of Expenses; Indemnification The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to: (a) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of (i) each Agent-Related Person in connection with (A) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery, syndication and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent) and (B) any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto and thereto including, but not limited to, any such amendments, waivers or consents resulting from or related to any work-out, renegotiation or restructure relating to the performance by the Borrowers under this Credit Agreement, and (ii) the Agent-Related Persons and the Lenders in connection with (A) enforcement or protection of rights under the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (including any workouts or restructurings), including, without limitation, in connection with any such enforcement, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Agent-Related Persons and each of the Lenders, and (B) any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (b) indemnify the Agent-Related Persons, each Lender and its officers, directors, employees, representatives, Affiliates and agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Agent-Related Person or any Lender is a party thereto) related to (i) the entering into and/or performance of any Credit Document or the use of proceeds of any Extensions of Credit or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in any Credit Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Person to be indemnified, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment), (ii) any Environmental Claim and (iii) any claims for Non-Excluded Taxes.
