Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may disclose such information (a) in confidence to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees and agents (including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors), actual or potential financing sources, provided that such disclosure to actual or potential financing sources is in connection with corporate financing and/or strategic initiatives and not for the purpose of entering into a transaction with a third party substantially similar in scope and with respect to the same assets as the transaction(s) contemplated herein, (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential and any failure of such Persons acting on behalf of such party to comply with this Section shall constitute a breach of this Section by the relevant party, as applicable), (b) to any other party under the Mezzanine Loan Documents (c) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Mezzanine Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder or (c) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6.05 or (ii) becomes available to such Party or its Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the disclosing Party or its Affiliates.

None of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to assert any right to indemnification under Section 8.01(a) until the aggregate amount of all such Losses actually suffered by Purchaser Indemnified Parties exceeds an amount equal to 1.00% of the Purchase Price, and then they shall be entitled to indemnification to the full extent of such Losses, including the initial 1.00% of such Losses.

SECTION 8.04 Indemnity Procedures.

(a) Procedure for Third-Party Claims.

(i) Notice of Claim. If a claim by a third party is made against any Seller Indemnified Party or any Purchaser Indemnified Party (any such person, an “Indemnified Party”) or an Indemnified Party shall otherwise learn of an assertion or of a potential claim, and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this

16

Article VIII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly furnish written notice of such claim (in reasonable detail and including the factual basis for such claim and, to the extent known, the amount thereof) to the Party against whom indemnity is sought (such Party, in such capacity, the “Indemnifying Party”). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all material notices and documents (including court papers) received or transmitted by the Indemnified Party relating to such claim. The failure or delay of the Indemnified Party to deliver prompt written notice of a claim shall not affect the indemnity obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party was actually and materially disadvantaged by such failure or delay in delivery of notice of such claim.

(ii) Conduct of Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after receipt of such notice (or, if the Indemnified Party provides written notice that an answer or other pleading must be served prior to that date in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the Person asserting the third-party claim, within 10 days of such notice from the Indemnified Party) to elect to undertake, conduct and control (through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense) the defense of such claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith. If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake, conduct and control the settlement or defense of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party (but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Party unless: (A) it is reasonable that the Indemnified Party be represented by separate counsel due to a conflict or potential conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; or (B) the defenses available to the Indemnified Party are not available to the Indemnifying Party where both parties are named as defendants in any third party claim). So long as the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, (1) has undertaken the defense of such claim, and assumed full responsibility for all indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, (2) is contesting such claim in good faith through appropriate proceedings and (3) has taken such action (including the posting of a bond, deposit or other security) as may be necessary to prevent any action to foreclose a Lien against or attachment of the property of the Indemnified Party for payment of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such claim; provided, however, that, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay or settle any such claim if it has irrevocably waived in writing any right to indemnity by the Indemnifying Party for such claim; and, provided, further, that, (x) if within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of a claim of indemnity under this Section 8.04(a) or, if the Indemnified Party provides written notice that an answer or other pleading must be served prior to that date in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the Person asserting the third-party claim, within ten (10) days of such notice from the Indemnified Party), the Indemnifying Party fails to undertake the defense thereof and assumed full responsibility for all indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, or fails to contest such claim in good faith or to prevent action to foreclose a Lien against or attachment of the Indemnified Party’s property as contemplated above or (y) if such claim is for equitable or injunctive relief, would impose criminal liability or damages, or is by any Governmental Entity, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise such claim and the Indemnified Party shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity for such claim under this Agreement.

17

(iii) Limitations on Settlement. No Indemnifying Party will consent to any settlement, compromise or discharge (including the consent to entry of any judgment) of any such claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided, that, if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of Losses in connection with such claim, unconditionally and irrevocably releases the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from liability in connection with such claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may refuse to agree to any such settlement, compromise or discharge (w) that provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or imposes any criminal liability or damages or (x) that arises out of a claim by a Governmental Authority. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party will not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge (including the consent to entry of any judgment with respect to), any such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(iv) Access to Information. If any claim is made by a third party against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the Indemnifying Party those partners, members, managers, officers and employees whose assistance, testimony or presence is necessary to assist the Indemnifying Party in evaluating and in defending such claims; provided, that any such access shall be conducted in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the operations of the business of the Indemnified Party, and any out of pocket expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection therewith shall be included in such Indemnified Party’s Losses.

(b) Procedure for Other Claims. Any claim on account of Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement, which does not result from a claim of a third party, will be asserted by written notice (setting forth in reasonable detail the facts or circumstances that allegedly give rise to such claim and, to the extent known, the amount thereof and include copies of all material written evidence thereof) given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party from whom such indemnification is sought, which notice shall be given promptly after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of the existence of such claim. The failure or delay of the Indemnified Party to deliver prompt written notice of a claim shall not affect the indemnity obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party was actually and materially disadvantaged by such failure or delay in delivery of notice of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such claim. During such 30-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information

18

and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.05 Survival and Time Limitation. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller and Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing only until the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, except that Fundamental Representations and the representation and warranties set forth in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c), Section 4.01(d), and Section 4.01(h) shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive in accordance with their terms. If notice of any claim for indemnification under Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 shall have been given in accordance with this Article VIII within the applicable survival period, the representations, warranties and covenants that are the subject of such indemnification claim shall survive with respect to such indemnification claim until such claim is finally resolved.

SECTION 8.06 Determination of Loss.

(a) Insurance Proceeds. Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party (or any Company Entities) in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.

(b) Remedies Not Affected by Investigation, Disclosure or Knowledge. Purchaser expressly reserves the right to seek indemnity or other remedy for any Losses arising out of or relating to any breach or violation of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Seller contained in this Agreement, notwithstanding any investigation by, disclosure to, knowledge or imputed knowledge of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or their respective representatives, whether before or after the date hereof, in respect of any fact or circumstance that reveals the occurrence of any such breach or violation.

SECTION 8.07 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of each Party (including the Seller Indemnified Parties and Purchaser Indemnified Parties) (a) for any breach of any Party’s representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, and for any failure by such Party to perform its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or (b) otherwise with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby with respect to any Company Entity other than instances of fraud or claims for non-monetary relief. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against another Party hereunder or under Applicable Law with respect to the claims described in clauses (a) and (b) above, other than instances of fraud or claims for non-monetary relief.

SECTION 9.07 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by each of the Parties. Seller may waive compliance by Purchaser, and Purchaser may waive compliance by Seller, with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such Party or Parties to be performed or complied with, only by an instrument in writing.
