4

by such lender (or agent) under any such agreement of any of such lender’s (or agent’s) rights and remedies under such pledge or security agreement with no further action or approval required under this Agreement. No such lender (or agent) shall be liable for the obligations of the Member to make contributions to the Company.

The Company acknowledges that the pledge of the Membership Interests in the Company made by the Member in connection with any financing agreement, note, pledge agreement or security agreement shall be a pledge not only of profits and losses of the Company, but also a pledge of all rights and obligations of the member.

5

agreement, note, pledge agreement or security agreement, the successor Member may transfer its interests in the Company. Notwithstanding any provisions contained herein to the contrary, the Member shall be permitted to pledge and, upon any foreclosure of such pledge (or any other sale or transfer of the Membership Interests in the Company in lieu of such foreclosure), to transfer to the secured party foreclosing on such interests (or to the purchaser or other transferee of the Membership Interests in lieu of such foreclosure) its rights and powers to manage and control the affairs of the Company pursuant and subject to the terms of any financing agreement, note, pledge agreement or security agreement.

Section 5.5    Additional Issuances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for so long as any amounts remain outstanding under any financing agreement, note, pledge agreement or security agreement, in each case, pursuant to which the Member has pledged its Membership Interests as collateral security for obligations of the Member and/or its affiliates, the Member shall not, without the prior written consent of the secured party thereunder, issue and shall not permit the issuance of, any additional Membership Interests of the Company other than its initial issuance of Membership Interests issued on or prior to the date of this Agreement, provided that additional Membership Interests of the Company may be issued, so long as such additional Membership Interests are pledged to the secured party under such financing agreement, note, pledge agreement or security agreement.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1    Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings. Subject to Section 8.6, the Company shall indemnify any Covered Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that such Person is a Covered Person (each, a “Proceeding”), against any and all losses, claims, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), costs, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Covered Person in connection with such Proceeding; provided, however, that such Covered Person shall not be indemnified by the Company if there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter for which such Covered Person is seeking indemnification hereunder, and taking into account the acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Agreement, such Covered Person committed bad faith, fraud or willful or intentional misconduct or criminal wrongdoing or, in the case of an Officer (in such Person’s capacity as such), such Officer did not meet the applicable standard of conduct under Section 8.9(d). Any indemnification provided hereunder shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of the Company (including available insurance coverage, if any),

 

7

as an expense of the Company and, accordingly, no Covered Person shall be subject to personal liability by reason of these indemnification provisions. “Covered Person” means the Member and any of its or the Company’s directors, managers, officers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Officers), employees, members, agents or representatives.

Section 8.2    Authorization of Indemnification. Except as provided in Section 8.3, any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of a Covered Person is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1. The determination of whether a Covered Person has met the standard of conduct that entitled it to indemnification hereunder shall be made by the Member. To the extent that a Covered Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding referred to in Section 8.1, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he, she or it shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him, her or it in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Section 8.3    Expenses Payable in Advance. Upon written request by a Covered Person, the Company shall pay reasonable expenses incurred (or reasonably expected to be incurred) by such Covered Person in defending or investigating a Proceeding in advance of (a) the final disposition of such Proceeding and (b) the determination of whether such Covered Person has met the standard of conduct that entitles such Covered Person to indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that prior to payment (or advancement) by the Company of any such expenses, the Covered Person shall provide an unsecured undertaking to the Company to repay all such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Article VIII.

Section 8.4    Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, contract, or pursuant to the consent of the Member or the direction (howsoever embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the Persons specified in Section 8.1 shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The provisions of this Article VIII shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any Person who is not specified in Section 8.1, but whom the Company has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the DLLCA or otherwise.

Section 8.5    Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of a Covered Person. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 8.5 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on liability of the Covered Persons, or terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Covered Person, under and in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII 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.

Section 8.6    Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Covered Person in connection with (i) a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Covered Person on behalf of such Covered Person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Member or (ii) any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Company, other than a proceeding brought in accordance with Subchapter X of Chapter 18 of the DLLCA against such Covered Person, unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Member. Nothing in this Section 8.6 shall be deemed to apply to any breach of any employment agreement, any noncompetition, non-solicitation and confidentiality agreement or any relationship or agreement between a Covered Person and the Company or any of its Affiliates or any Proceeding arising from any such breach.

Section 8.7    Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Member, provide rights to indemnification and the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Company or its Subsidiaries similar to those conferred in this Article VIII to Covered Persons.

Section 8.8    Severability. The provisions of this Article VIII are intended to comply with the DLLCA. To the extent that any provision of this Article VIII authorizes or requires indemnification or the advancement of expenses contrary to the DLLCA or the Certificate, the Company’s power to indemnify or advance expenses under such provision shall be limited to that permitted by the DLLCA and the Certificate and any limitation required by the DLLCA or the Certificate shall not affect the validity of any other provision of this Article VIII.

Section 8.9    Waiver of Members’ Fiduciary Duties; Limitation of Liability.

(a)    The Member, in its capacity as a Member, shall not have any fiduciary or other duty to the Company or any other Person that is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement; provided, however, that, to the extent required by the DLLCA, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to waive or modify the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(b)    To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, whenever the Member, in its capacity as a Member, is permitted or required to make a decision or take an action or omit to take an action (including wherever in this Agreement that the Member is permitted or required to make, grant or take a determination, a decision, consent, vote, judgment or action at its “discretion,” “sole discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude), the Member shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors, including its own, as it desires, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any other interest or factors whatsoever. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Member shall not be liable to the Company for losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission (in relation to the Company, any transaction, any investment or any business decision or action, including for breach of duties including fiduciary duties) taken or omitted by the Member, unless there has been

 

9

a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of such act or omission, and taking into account the acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Member engaged in bad faith, fraud or willful or intentional misconduct or criminal wrongdoing; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise affect the Member’s liability with respect to a breach of the express terms of this Agreement applicable to the Member.

(c)    Each Covered Person may rely, and shall incur no liability in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, paper, document, signature or writing reasonably believed by it to be genuine, and may rely on a certificate signed by an officer, agent or representative of any Person in order to ascertain any fact with respect to such Person or within such Person’s knowledge, in each case unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of such reliance, action or inaction, such Covered Person committed bad faith, fraud or willful or intentional misconduct or criminal wrongdoing.

(d)    Each Officer (in such Person’s capacity as an Officer) shall have such fiduciary duties that an officer of the Company would have if the Company were a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no Officer (in such Person’s capacity as such) shall be liable to the Company or to the Member for losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission (in relation to the Company, any transaction, any investment or any business decision or action, including for breach of duties including fiduciary duties) taken or omitted by such Officer (in such Person’s capacity as such), unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of such act or omission, and taking into account the acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Agreement, such Officer (in such Person’s capacity as such) would have had such liability for such act or omission that an officer of the Company would have if the Company were a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(e)    NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE MEMBER (IN ITS CAPACITY AS A MEMBER) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO THE COMPANY OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON MAKING CLAIMS ON BEHALF OF THE FOREGOING FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF USE OR REVENUE OR LOSSES BY REASON OF COST OF CAPITAL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS CONTROLLED AFFILIATES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIMS ARE BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICES ACT OR SIMILAR LAW OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE DUTY OR PRINCIPLE, AND THE COMPANY HEREBY RELEASES THE MEMBER (IN ITS CAPACITY AS A MEMBER) FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES.

 

10

(f)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 8.9 shall limit or waive any claims against, actions, rights to sue, other remedies or other recourse the Company, the Member or any other Person may have against any Officer for a breach of contract claim relating to any binding agreement, including this Agreement, any noncompetition, non-solicitation and confidentiality agreement and any employment agreement.

Section 8.10    Indemnitor of First Resort. As a result of agreements or obligations arising outside of this Agreement, it may be the case that certain of the Covered Persons (collectively, the “Member Indemnitees”) have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by the Member or certain of its Affiliates (collectively, the “Member Indemnitors”). However, regardless of whether or not there are any such rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by any Member Indemnitor, (i) the Company is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., the Company’s obligations to the Member Indemnitees are primary and any obligation of the Member Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by any Member Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) the Company shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Member Indemnitees and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or any other agreement between the Company and the Member Indemnitees) and (iii) the Company hereby irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases each of the Member Indemnitors from any and all claims against any of the Member Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. Regardless of any advancement or payment by the Member Indemnitors on behalf of any Member Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which a Member Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company, (A) the foregoing shall not be affected and (B) the Member Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Member Indemnitee against the Company.
