Indemnification of Members No member will be liable, responsible, or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or to the members for any action taken or failure to act on behalf of the Company unless the action or omission was an intentional breach of this Agreement or constituted gross negligence, bad faith, or wanton or willful misconduct (collectively “Misconduct”). Except with respect to Misconduct, the Company will, to the fullest extent permitted under the Act, indemnify and hold harmless the members from any loss, damage, liability, or expense incurred or sustained by them by reason of any act performed or any omission for or on behalf of the Company, including any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and other costs and expenses (which may be advanced by the Company), incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding, or claim.
Liability Indemnification Controlled Affiliate and Plan hereby agree to save, defend, indemnify and hold BCBSA harmless from and against all claims, damages, liabilities and costs of every kind, nature and description (except those arising solely as a result of BCBSA's negligence) that may arise as a result of or related to Controlled Affiliate's rendering of services under the Licensed Marks and Name.
Limited Liability Indemnification (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and except to the extent required by applicable law, no Indemnitee shall be liable to the Partnership or any Partner for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Indemnitee in its capacity as a person of the type described in the definition of the term, “Indemnitee,” provided that such Indemnitee acted in good faith and such action or omission does not involve the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that an Indemnitee did not act in good faith or that an action or omission involves gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(b) The Partnership shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify each Indemnitee against expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding to which such Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of (i) such Indemnitee’s status as a General Partner, any Affiliate of the General Partner, any Person who is or was a director, officer, manager, member, employee or agent of the General Partner or any such Affiliate, or any Person who is or was serving at the request of the General Partner or any such Affiliate as a director, officer, manager, member, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another Person or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Indemnitee in any capacity referred to in clause (i) of this Section 7.12(b), relating to this Agreement or the property, business, affairs or management of the Partnership Group (provided that the Indemnitee acted in good faith and the act or omission which is the basis of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding does not involve the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee).
(c) Expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Section 7.12(b) shall be paid by the Partnership in advance of the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking (which need not be secured) by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction, that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Partnership as authorized hereunder.
(d) The indemnification provided by Section 7.12(b) shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in a capacity for which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, administrators and personal representatives of the Indemnitee.
(e) To the extent commercially reasonable, the Partnership shall purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnitees against any liability which may be asserted against or expense which may be incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with the Partnership’s activities, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify an Indemnitee against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.
(f) An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under Section 7.12(b) because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
(g) The provisions of this Section 7.12 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and the heirs, successors, assigns, administrators and personal representatives of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.
(h) For purposes of this Section 7.12, the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance of duties by such Indemnitee for the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such Indemnitee to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute “fines” within the meaning of Section 7.12(b); and action taken or omitted by an Indemnitee with respect to any employee benefit plan in the performance of duties by such Indemnitee for a purpose reasonably believed by such Indemnitee to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which does not involve gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(i) In no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.
(j) No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.12 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Partnership, nor the obligations of the Partnership to indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.12 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted and provided that such Person became an Indemnitee hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.
Indemnification of Manager The Company and each Managed Subsidiary, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify the Manager, any controlling person of the Manager, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, (including lost profits) claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, joint or several (collectively, “Liabilities”), to which the Indemnified Parties may become liable, directly or indirectly, arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement, unless it is finally judicially determined that the Liabilities resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of duty of any Indemnified Party or fraudulent or dishonest acts of such Indemnified Party. The Company and the Managed Subsidiaries further agree to reimburse each Indemnified Party immediately upon request for all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, defense of, or providing evidence in any action, claim, suit, proceeding or investigation, directly or indirectly, arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or the Manager’s services hereunder, whether or not pending or threatened and whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party to such proceeding. The Company and the Managed Subsidiaries also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company, the Managed Subsidiaries, or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company or the Managed Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or the Manager’s services thereunder, unless it is finally judicially determined that such Liability resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard of duty of such Indemnified Party or fraudulent or dishonest acts of such Indemnified Party. Moreover, in no event, regardless of the legal theory advanced, shall any Indemnified Party be liable to the Company, the Managed Subsidiaries, or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in the right of the Company or the Managed Subsidiaries for any consequential, indirect, incidental or special damages of any nature. In the event that an Indemnified Party is requested or required to appear as a witness in any action brought by or on behalf of or against the Company or the Managed Subsidiaries or any Affiliate of the Company or the Managed Subsidiaries in which such Indemnified Party is not named as a defendant, the Company and the Managed Subsidiaries agree to reimburse the Manager for all expenses incurred by it in connection with such Indemnified Party’s appearing and preparing to appear as such a witness, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its legal counsel. The Company and the Managed Subsidiaries agree that, without the Manager’s prior written consent, they will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnification could be sought hereunder (whether or not the Manager or any other Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation), unless (a) such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from any liabilities arising out of such claim action, suit, proceeding or investigation and (b) the parties agree that the terms of such settlement shall remain confidential.
