16.Indemnification. (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Member and each other Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, costs, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitral or investigative, in which such Indemnified Person is or was involved, may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, arising out of (i) any action or inaction on the part of the Company, (ii) any action or inaction on the part of the Indemnified Person in connection with the business and affairs of the Company, (iii) this Agreement, (iv) the Member’s status as a member or manager of the Company or any Representative’s status as a representative of the Company or (v) any action taken by the Member or any Representative under this Agreement or otherwise on behalf of the Company (collectively, “Liabilities”), regardless of whether the Member continues to be a member of the Company and regardless of whether the Indemnified Person continues to fall within the definition of Indemnified Person contained in Section 14 hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Act and all other applicable laws;provided, that an Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder only to the extent that such Indemnified Person’s conduct did not constitute willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The termination of any proceeding by settlement, judgment, order, conviction, or upon a plea ofnolocontendere or its equivalent shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption that such Indemnified Person’s conduct constituted willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence.
(b) Expenses incurred by an Indemnified Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Section 16(a) shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 16(a).
(c) The indemnification provided by this Section 16 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnified Person may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of law or equity or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of each Indemnified Person.
(d) The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at the Company’s expense, on behalf of one or more of the Indemnified Persons and such other persons as the Member shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against, or any expense that may be incurred by, such person in connection with the activities of the Company or such persons’ acts or omissions in respect of the Company regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability or expense under the provisions of this Agreement.
(e) Any indemnification under this Section 16 shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of the Company. The Member shall not be subject to personal liability or required to fund or cause to be funded any obligation by reason of these indemnification provisions.
17.Other Activities Permitted.
