3.4.4 Additional Indemnification Rights. The indemnification provided by this Section 3.4 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, as determined by the Manager, other constituent documents or as a matter of law or equity or otherwise (provided, however, that to the extent permitted by law, Section 3.4.5 shall be deemed to be a restriction on the rights of Indemnitee to obtain indemnification and advancement of expenses in the circumstances specified herein), both as to an action in the

Indemnitee’s capacity as an affiliate or a Member, Manager, an officer of the Company or of any affiliate, and as to an action in another capacity, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, and administrators of the Indemnitee.
3.4.5 Limitation on Indemnity and Expenses. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may elect, with the consent of the Manager, not to provide any indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 3.4 for any Damages of or to an Indemnitee (A) that arise in connection with any claim, demand, action, suit or other proceeding brought (i) by the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or other affiliates against such Indemnitee or any of his or her affiliates, or (ii) by any such Indemnitee or any of his or her affiliates against the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or other affiliates, or (B) if the Manager has determined that such person has breached his/her duty of loyalty to the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or other affiliates, or has acted or omitted to act in a manner that constituted intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or for any transactions from which such person received any improper personal benefit.
3.4.6 Contractual Nature of Rights. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Company and each Member, Manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company or of the Company’s, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 3.4 is in effect, and any repeal or modification hereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts then or theretofore existing or any proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts. The failure of the Company (including the Member, Manager or independent legal counsel) to make a determination concerning the permissibility of such indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 3.4 shall not be a defense to the action and shall not create a presumption that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible.
3.4.7 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Member, the Manager, officers, employees and agents (including the Member, Manager, officers, employees and agents of any the Company’s, direct or indirect, subsidiaries) against any liability of any character asserted against or incurred by the Company or any such Member, Manager, officers, employees and agents of the Company or of the Company’s, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, or arising out of any such person’s relationship with the Company, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the Act or the provisions of this Section 3.4.
