4.02. Indemnification by SRM.
Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, SRM shall, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and each stockholder, director, officer, agent or employees of the Company, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”), from and against any and all liabilities of the Company Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from, directly or indirectly, any of the following items (without duplication):
(a) any the SRM Business or the SRM Assets;
(b) any SRM Liability;
(c) any failure of SRM to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any SRM Liability in accordance with their terms, whether prior to, on or after the Effective Time; and

Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall, and shall cause the other members of the Company to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless SRM and each SRM Person or their respective past, present and future directors, officers, employees or agents, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “SRM Indemnitees”), from and against any and all liabilities of the SRM Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from, directly or indirectly, any of the following items (without duplication):
(a) any Company Liability or the Company’s assets or business other than the SRM Business or the SRM Assets;

4.04. Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.
(a) The Parties intend that any liability subject to indemnification (an “Indemnified Liability”), contribution or reimbursement pursuant to this Article IV will be net of any insurance proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any individual or entity by or on behalf of the Indemnitee (as defined below) in respect of any Indemnifiable Liability pursuant to an insurance policy (an “Insurance Policy”). Accordingly, the amount which either Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any person entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) will be reduced by any insurance proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Indemnified Liability. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Indemnified Liability and subsequently receives any insurance proceeds or any other amounts in respect of such Indemnified Liability, then within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such insurance proceeds, the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the insurance proceeds or such other amounts (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.
7 |
(b) The Parties agree that it is their intent that an insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of any provision contained in this Agreement , have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood that no insurer or any other Indemnified Party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification and contribution provisions hereof. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the probability of success on the merits and the cost of expending such efforts, including attorneys’ fees and expenses) to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable respecting the Indemnified Liabilities for which indemnification or contribution may be available under this Article IV. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may not delay making any indemnification payment required under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise satisfying any indemnification obligation, pending the outcome of any action to collect or recover insurance proceeds, and an Indemnitee need not attempt to collect any insurance proceeds prior to making a claim for indemnification or contribution or receiving any Indemnity Payment otherwise owed to it under this Agreement.
4.05. Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.
(a) Notice of Claims. If, at or following the Effective Time, an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by an individual or entity who is not themselves an Indemnified Party (including any federal, state or foreign government of government agency (a “Governmental Authority”) who is not a subsidiary of the Company of any claim or of the commencement by any such person of any action (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.02 or 4.03, or any other Section of this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as practicable, but in any event within fourteen (14) days (or sooner if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, including the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnification, and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide notice in accordance with this Section 4.05(a) shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the Indemnitee’s failure to provide notice in accordance with this Section 4.05(a).
(b) Control of Defense. Subject to any insurer’s rights pursuant to an Insurance Policy of either Party, an Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and seek to settle or compromise), at its own expense and with its own counsel, any Third-Party Claim; provided, that, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming and controlling defense of such Third-Party Claim, it shall first confirm to the Indemnitee in writing that, assuming the facts presented to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnitee being true, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnitee for any such damages to the extent resulting from, or arising out of, such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense and, in the course of defending such Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party discovers that the facts presented at the time the Indemnifying Party acknowledged its indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim were not true in all material respects and (ii) such untruth provides a reasonable basis for asserting that the Indemnifying Party does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim, then (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by such acknowledgment, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall promptly thereafter provide the Indemnitee written notice of its assertion that it does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim and (C) the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 4.5(a) (or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnitee indicating whether the Indemnifying Party shall assume responsibility for defending the Third-Party Claim and specifying any reservations or exceptions to its defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 4.5(b) or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from an Indemnitee as provided in Section 4.5(a), then the Indemnitee that is the subject of such Third-Party Claim shall be entitled to continue to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent a Third-Party Claim involves or would reasonably be expected to involve both an SRM Liability and the Company Liability (collectively, a “Shared Third-Party Claim”), the Company shall have the sole right to defend and control such portion of any Action relating to such Third-Party Claim to the extent it relates to a the Company Liability, and SRM shall have the sole right to defend and control such portion of any Action relating to such Third-Party Claim to the extent it relates to an SRM Liability.
8 |
(c) Allocation of Defense Costs. If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, whether with or without any reservations or exceptions with respect to such defense, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnitee for any such fees or expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party during the course of the defense of such Third-Party Claim by such Indemnifying Party, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee as provided in Section 4.05(a), and the Indemnitee conducts and controls the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party has an indemnification obligation with respect to such Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim. In the event of a Shared Third-Party Claim, each Party shall be liable for the portion of the fees and expenses incurred by such Party in connection with the defense of such Shared Third-Party Claim that is equal to the relative portion of such Party’s Liability in respect of such Shared Third-Party Claim, and shall be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the other Party for any fees or expenses incurred by such Party during the course of the defense of such Shared Third-Party Claim in excess of such fees and expenses that are the responsibility of such Party pursuant to this Agreement.
(d) No Settlement. Neither Party may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement or compromise is solely for monetary damages that are fully payable by the settling or compromising Party, does not involve any admission, finding or determination of wrongdoing or violation of Law or the Indemnitee and provides for a full, unconditional and irrevocable release of the other Party and the Indemnitee(s) from all Liability in connection with the Third-Party Claim. The Parties hereby agree that if a Party presents the other Party with a written notice containing a proposal to settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder and the Party receiving such proposal does not respond in any manner to the Party presenting such proposal within thirty (30) days (or within any such shorter time period that may be required by applicable Law or court order) of receipt of such proposal, then the Party receiving such proposal shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such proposal.
4.06. Right of Contribution.
(a) Contribution. If any right of indemnification contained in Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 is held unenforceable or is unavailable for any reason, or is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnified Liability for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by the Indemnitees as a result of such Indemnified Liability (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnitee.
9 |
4.07. Limitation of an Indemnified Liability.
The indemnification includes all liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with a matter resulting in the right to indemnification, including without limitation, any reasonable fees for independent legal counsel and accountants. No Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any special, punitive or exemplary damages, except to the extent such damages are finally awarded and actually paid by the Indemnitee to a third party in connection with a Third Party Claim.
4.08. Survival of Indemnification.
The indemnification provisions in this Article IV shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, plus sixty days. The right to indemnification with respect to claims of which notice was given prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period shall survive such expiration until such claim is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.
