In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 8.2 hereof, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower (an “Indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify, pay, and hold Lender and any holder of a Note, and the officers, directors, employees, agents, and Affiliates of Lender and such holders (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against that Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, Lender’s agreement to make the Loans or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans hereunder (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), except to the extent that any such Indemnified Liabilities arose at the result of Lender’s or any other Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor prompt written notice of any claim that might give rise to Indemnified Liabilities setting forth a description of those elements of such claim of which such Indemnitee has knowledge: provided, that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Indemnitor unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnitor is prejudiced, The Indemnitor shall have the right at any time during which such claim is pending to select counsel to defend and control the defense thereof and settle any claims for which it is responsible for indemnification hereunder (provided that the Indemnitor will not settle any such claim without (i) the appropriate Indemnitee’s prior written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or (ii) obtaining an unconditional release of the appropriate Indemnitee from all claims arising out of or in any way relating to the circumstances involving such claim) so long as in any such event, the Indemnitor shall have stated in a writing delivered to the Indemnitee that, as between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor is responsible to the Indemnitee with respect to such claim to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth herein provided, that the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to control the defense of any claim in the event that in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnitee there arc one or more material defenses available to the Indemnitee which are not available to the Indemnitor. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any Law or public policy, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment, and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.
