ARTICLE VIII.
INDEMNIFICATION

          8.1 Indemnification.

          (a) All of the representations and warranties made herein by any party shall survive any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any other party hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement for a period of twelve (12) months from the Closing Date; provided, that with respect to the representations and warranties made in Section 2.7, such time period shall be extended to the end of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extension thereof) with respect to claims arising thereunder. Such representations and warranties contained herein are exclusive, and the parties hereto confirm that they have not relied upon any other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or otherwise. No Claim for indemnification hereunder may be made after the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Claims arising from the breach of any representations and warranties made in Section 2.7 may be made until ninety (90) days from the end of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extension thereof). Each party (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other parties and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners members and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, damages or expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third party or otherwise) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by such Indemnified Party resulting or arising out of any breach of any representation or warranty by such party in this Agreement; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Article VIII to an Indemnified Party for any amount paid in settlement of claims with the Indemnifying Party’s consent as provided herein. In connection with the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon presentation of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, reimburse each Indemnified Party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Indemnifying

Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third party) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Party, subject to the agreement by the Indemnified Party to reimburse the Indemnifying Party for such amounts if it is determined that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to be indemnified hereunder. No Claim for indemnification shall be made hereunder by a party unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by such party exceeds $750,000, and then only to the extent of any excess over such amount. The maximum liability of any party hereunder shall be $50 million. Any Claim against, and payments made by, Flag and the Company shall be aggregated for purposes of the foregoing two sentences.

          (b) For purposes of this Section 8.1, a “Claim” shall mean any action, suit, proceeding, claim, complaint, dispute, arbitration, hearing or investigation.

          8.2 Notification. Each Indemnified Party under this Article VIII shall, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim against such Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from the Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission by any Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party of any such action shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party under this Article VIII unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the Indemnifying Party’s loss of substantive rights or defenses. In case any such Claim shall be brought against any Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable judgment; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Claim in which both the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, are, or are reasonably likely to become, a party, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to control its own defense of such Claim if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, either (x) one or more defenses are available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying Party or (y) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, that would make such separate representation advisable; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all of such fees and expenses of such counsel incurred in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties or between the Indemnified Parties and any third party, as such expenses are incurred, subject to the agreement by the Indemnified Party to reimburse the Indemnifying Party for such amounts if it is determined that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to be indemnified hereunder. The Indemnifying Party agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Claim relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent

includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such Claim and such settlement does not impose injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected against an Indemnified Party without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (the withholding of any consent relating to a proposed settlement that imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party shall not be deemed unreasonable). The provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement.

          8.3 Loss Calculation. In connection with calculating the amount of Losses that an Indemnified Party is entitled to recover under Section 8.1(a), (i) in calculating the amount of Losses incurred by Purchaser, Losses shall include the loss and/or diminution in value of Purchaser’s membership interest in the Company and (ii) except as contemplated by the foregoing clause (i) and clause (x)(B) of the definition of “Company Material Adverse Effect” under this Agreement, no party shall be liable for consequential, special, indirect, incidental, punitive, lost profit or other expectancy damages.
