The parties hereto agree that the only information furnished in writing to the Issuers by the Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Offering Circular is the Furnished Information. The Issuers shall notify the Initial Purchaser promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which either of the Issuers or any Subsidiary is aware in connection with the matters addressed by this Agreement which involves either of the Issuers, any of the Subsidiaries or any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties. (b) Actions Against Parties; Notification. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to the party or parties from which such indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Parties") in writing; provided, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from any obligation or liability except to the extent (but only to the extent) that it shall be finally determined by a court 24 of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that the Indemnifying Parties have been prejudiced materially by such failure. (c) Actions Against Parties; Procedure and Conditions. The Indemnifying Parties shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party, within 20 Business Days after receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such Proceeding, to assume, at their expense, the defense of any such Proceeding; provided, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (i) the Indemnifying Parties have agreed to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the Indemnifying Parties shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding or shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; or (iii) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and one or more Indemnifying Parties (or any affiliates or controlling persons of any of the Indemnifying Parties), and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to, or in conflict with, those defenses available to the indemnifying party or such affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Parties in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties; it being understood, however, that, the Indemnifying Parties shall not, in connection with any one such Proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for such Indemnified Party). No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment in or enter into any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) unless such judgment or settlement includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all Losses that may arise from such Proceeding or the subject matter thereof (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto). (d) Indemnification of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors and each of their controlling persons and their respective members, managers, officers, directors, partners, employees and representatives to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors to each of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties stated in Section 8(a), but only with respect to Losses that are caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with the Furnished Information. The parties hereto agree that the only information furnished in writing to the Issuers by the Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Offering Circular is the Furnished Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any liability of the Initial Purchaser hereunder shall be limited to 25 an amount not to exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by the Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that the Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact (the "Aggregate Discount"). (e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section 8 would otherwise apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section 8), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuers and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuers and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuers and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuers, on the one hand, and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, bear to the total price of the Series A Notes in Exempt Resales as set forth on the cover page of the Offering Circular. The relative fault of the Issuers and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers or any Subsidiary, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding, to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 was available to such party. Each party hereto agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(e), the Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the Aggregate Discount. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. (f) Nonexclusive Remedy. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are in addition to any liability that any of the Issuers, the Subsidiary Guarantors or 26 the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have to the Indemnified Parties, and does not limit in any way rights or remedies which may otherwise be available at law or in equity. 9.
