Litigation and Claims No litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against Borrower is pending or threatened, and no other event has occurred which may materially adversely affect Borrower’s financial condition or properties, other than litigation, claims, or other events, if any, that have been disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender 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.
