obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified person or any of its Related Persons. For purposes hereof, a “Related Person” of an indemnified person means (a) any controlling person, controlled affiliate or subsidiary of such indemnified person, (b) the respective directors, officers or employees of such indemnified person or any of its subsidiaries, controlled affiliates or controlling persons, and (c) the respective agents and advisors of such indemnified person or any of its subsidiaries, controlled affiliates or controlling persons (with respect to this clause (c), in each case acting at the direction of such indemnified person or such subsidiaries, controlled affiliates or controlling persons). You acknowledge that the Commitment Parties may receive a benefit, including, without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us, including without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto. If any amount previously paid to an indemnified person pursuant to this paragraph is subsequently determined to be ineligible for indemnification as a result of a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, such indemnified person shall promptly reimburse such amount to you.
You agree that (i) in no event shall the Lead Arrangers, their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, and agents (each, and including, without limitation, each Lead Arranger, an “Arranger-Related Person”) or you (or any of your subsidiaries or affiliates) have any Liabilities, on any theory of liability, for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Commitment Letter, the Original Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Original Fee Letter or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby and (ii) no Arranger-Related Person shall have any Liabilities arising from, or be responsible for, the use by others of Information or other materials (including, without limitation, any personal data) obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, including an electronic platform or otherwise via the internet (except to the extent such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any Arranger-Related Person or any of its Related Persons or a material breach by such Arranger-Related Person or any of its Related Persons of the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Original Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Original Fee Letter or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby); provided that, nothing in this paragraph shall relieve you of any obligation you may have to indemnify an indemnified person, as and to the extent provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such indemnified person by a third party. You agree, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to not assert any claims against any Arranger-Related Person with respect to any of the foregoing. As used herein, the term “Liabilities” shall mean any losses, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, damages or liabilities of any kind.
You will not, without the prior written consent of the applicable indemnified person (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any Proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified person. You will not be liable for any settlement, compromise, consent or termination of any pending or threatened Proceeding effected without your prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that the foregoing indemnity will apply to any such settlement, compromise, consent or termination in the event that you were offered the ability to assume the defense of the action that was the subject matter of such settlement, compromise, consent or termination and elected not to assume such
