In the event that any Indemnified Person wishes to make a claim for indemnification under this Clause IV, the Indemnified Person shall give written notice of such claim to each Indemnifying Party within the applicable time limitations contained in Clause 4.3(a). Any such notice shall describe the breach or inaccuracy and other material facts and circumstances upon which such claim is based and the estimated amount of Losses involved, in each case, in reasonable detail in light of the facts then known to the Indemnified Person; provided, that no defect in the information contained in such notice from the Indemnified Person to any Indemnifying Party will relieve such Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Clause IV, except to the extent such failure to include information actually and materially prejudices such Indemnifying Party.

 

Clause 4.4 Third Party Claims

 

(a) Notice of Third Party Claims. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of written notice of the assertion of a claim by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to an indemnity claim against an Indemnifying Party under this Clause IV, the Indemnified Person shall give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Clause IV, except to the extent such delay actually and materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

 

(b) Assumption of Defense, etc. The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a notice given by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person pursuant to Clause 4.4(a). In addition, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Person against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party gives written notice that they or it will defend the Third Party Claim to the Indemnified Person within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Person has given notice of the Third Party Claim under Clause 4.4(a) stating that the Indemnifying Party will, and thereby covenants to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Person from and against the entirety of any and all Losses the Indemnified Person may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Person with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person that the Indemnifying Party will have adequate financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Person, (iv) the Indemnified Person has not been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim, (v) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection with Taxes or any criminal or regulatory enforcement action, (vi) settlement of, an adverse judgment with respect to, or conduct of the defense of the Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Person, likely to be adverse to the Indemnified Person’s reputation or continuing business interests (including its relationships with current or potential customers, suppliers or other parties material to the conduct of its business) and (vii) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. The Indemnified Person may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnifying Party will pay the fees and expenses of separate counsel retained by the Indemnified Person that are incurred prior to the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of control of the defense of the Third Party Claim.

 

 23 
 

 

(c) Limitations on Indemnifying Party Control. The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (i) provides for the payment by the Indemnifying Party of money as sole relief for the claimant, (ii) results in the full and general release of all Indemnified Person from all liabilities arising or relating to, or in connection with, the Third Party Claim and (iii) involves no finding or admission of any violation of legal requirements or the rights of any Person.

 

(d) Indemnified Person’s Control. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the notice contemplated by sub-section (i) of Clause 4.4(b), or the evidence contemplated by subsection (ii) of Clause 4.4(b), within ninety (90) days after the Indemnified Person has given notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to Clause 4.4(a), or otherwise at any time fails to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently, the Indemnified Person may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Person need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith). If such notice and evidence is given on a timely basis and the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently but any of the other conditions in Clause 4.4(b) is or becomes unsatisfied, the Indemnified Person may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without its prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that the Indemnified Person conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Clause 4.4(d), the Indemnifying Party will (i) advance the Indemnified Person promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and (ii) remain responsible for any and all other Losses that the Indemnified Person may incur or suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Clause IV.

(e) Consent to Jurisdiction Regarding Third Party Claim. OBMP and each of MCO and CAV, hereby consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which any Third Party Claim may be brought against any Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim which such Indemnified Person may have against any such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in connection with such Third Party Claim, and in furtherance thereof, the provisions of Clause 5.6 are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis.

 

Clause 4.5 No Circular Recovery. Each of MCO and CAV hereby agrees that they will not make any claim for indemnification against OBMP by reason of the fact that each was a controlling person, director, employee or representative of OBMP or Vitel or was serving as such for another Person at the request of OBMP or Vitel (whether such claim is for Losses of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any legal requirement, organizational document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by an OBMP Indemnified Person against any of MCO or CAV under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement. With respect to any claim brought by an OBMP Indemnified Person against MCO or CAV under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement, each of MCO and CAV expressly waives any right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against any of OBMP or Vitel with respect to any amounts owed by MCO or CAV pursuant to this Clause IV or otherwise

(a) For as long as there are OBMP Shares in the Trust maintained under the Trust Agreement, any and all amounts payable by MCO and CAV as Indemnifying Party to an OBMP Indemnified Person will be paid in OBMP Shares first out of such Trust and based on the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Shareholders’ Agreement) of the OBMP Shares on the date of payment, and thereafter, if and when such OBMP Shares are exhausted, by MCO and CAV as herein provided in cash in accordance with payment instructions provided by OBMP. Subject to Clause 4.1(b), the existence of the OBMP Shares in the Trust will not be deemed to limit the amount of any allowable claims by any OBMP Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement for Losses in excess of the value of such OBMP Shares.

 

(b) For as long as there are Vitel Shares in the Trust maintained under the Trust Agreement, any and all amounts payable by OBMP as Indemnifying Party to a Vitel Indemnified Person will be paid in Vitel Shares first out of such Trust and based on the Fair Market Value of the Vitel Shares on the date of payment, and thereafter, if and when such Vitel Shares are exhausted, by OBMP as herein provided in cash in accordance with payment instructions provided by MCO and CAV. Subject to Clause 4.2(b), the existence of the Vitel Shares in the Trust will not be deemed to limit the amount of any allowable claims by any Vitel Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement for Losses in excess of the value of such Vitel Shares.

 

Clause 4.7 Insurance Proceeds. Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Clause 4.1 or Clause 4.2 in respect of any Losses shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Person in respect of any such claim, in each case, in the year in which the applicable indemnified Losses are incurred.

 

 25 
 

 

Clause 4.8 Indemnification Exclusive Remedy. Except for claims based on fraud, from and after the date hereof, the right of each party hereto to demand and receive indemnification payments pursuant to this Clause IV shall be the sole and exclusive right and remedy exercisable by such party with respect to any matters relating to, or arising under, this Agreement.

 

Clause 4.9 Remedies Cumulative. The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Clause IV are cumulative, and each Indemnified Person will have the right in any particular circumstance, in its sole discretion, to enforce any provision of this Clause IV without regard to the availability of a remedy under any other provision of this Clause IV.

Each party hereto agrees that he or she will not disclose any Confidential Information to any other Person, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed: (i) to the extent required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including complying with any oral or written questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process to which a party hereto is subject or as required to be disclosed by OBMP pursuant to federal securities laws in force in the United States of America which are applicable to OBMP); provided that such party gives OBMP and/or Vitel (as applicable) prompt notice of such requests other than disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States of America, to the extent practicable, so that OBMP and/or Vitel (as applicable) may seek an appropriate protective order or similar relief (and the parties hereto shall cooperate with such efforts by OBMP and/or Vitel, and shall in any event make only the minimum disclosure required by such law, rule or regulation, other than federal securities laws in force in the United States of America which are applicable to OBMP, disclosure which OBMP may make in its reasonable discretion), (ii) after the later of a period of five (5) years from and after the date of this Agreement and or (2) years following the date on which a party hereto ceases to be a stockholder of OBMP, or (iii) if the prior written consent of OBMP and/or Vitel (as applicable) shall have been obtained. For the purposes of clarity and the avoidance of doubt the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, OBMP shall not be required to seek the consent of MCO or CAV for the use of any of Vitel’s Confidential Information which shall become and be the Confidential Information of OBMP as the beneficial owner of the Vitel Shares. The provisions of this Clause 5.1(a) are in addition to, and separate from, any similar covenants and restrictions in respect of Confidential Information to which a party hereto may be subject by reason of any employment or consulting relationship with OBMP and/or Vitel (as applicable) or its Affiliates or the transactions contemplated herein.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge that the success of Vitel after the date hereof depends upon the continued preservation of the confidentiality of certain information possessed by the parties hereto, that the preservation of the confidentiality of such information by such parties hereto is an essential premise of the bargain between MCO, CAV, and OBMP, and that the parties hereto would be unwilling to enter into this Agreement in the absence of Clause 5.1(a). Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that all information provided by or on behalf of OBMP to the parties hereto and their Affiliates and representatives, together with all information provided by or on behalf of Vitel, MCO and CAV to OBMP and its Affiliates and representatives in connection with the preparation of this Agreement shall be treated as “Confidential Information” in accordance with the provisions of Clause 5.1(a).

If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Clause 5.2 is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the reduction in the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, or the deletion of specific words or phrases, or the replacement of any invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall be carried out so as to include a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

 

 27 
 

 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Clause 5.2(a) above, in no event shall MCO or CAV be prohibited from engaging in any business under the following conditions:

 

MCO or CAV (as applicable) shall promptly notify OBMP in writing of any business opportunities in any country or territory in the world, with regard to any expansion of any business activity currently conducted by MCO or CAV beyond the Excluded Contracts so long as such business (i) does not interfere with MCO or CAV’s duties under their employment agreements with Vitel and (ii) does not compete with any of the products that are part of the Restricted Business anywhere in the world (the “ROW Opportunity”). OBMP, when presented with an ROW Opportunity, shall have a period of thirty (30) days in which to decide to participate.
