ANNEX A TO COMMITMENT LETTER
INDEMNIFICATION AND WAIVER
Except as otherwise defined in this Annex A, capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them elsewhere in this Commitment Letter.
As consideration for the Debt Financing Letters, the Borrower (“you”) hereby agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Commitment Parties, the Lenders in the Debt Financing and each of our and their respective affiliates and subsidiaries (including controlling persons) and each of the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and attorneys-in-fact of each of the foregoing (each, an “indemnified person”), to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) to which any such indemnified person, directly or indirectly, may become subject arising out of, relating to, resulting from or otherwise in connection with the Debt Financing Letters, the Debt Financing, the use of the proceeds therefrom, the Transactions, any of the other transactions contemplated by the Debt Financing Letters, or any action, claim, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry or proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to, resulting from or otherwise in connection with any of the foregoing (each, a “Claim”), regardless of whether any indemnified person is a named party thereto or whether such Claim is brought by you, any of your affiliates or a third party and (ii) to reimburse each indemnified person promptly following written demand (together with reasonably detailed documentation describing such Claim) for all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to reasonable and documented legal fees of one counsel selected by us to such indemnified persons, taken as a whole, and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, where the indemnified person affected by such conflict informs you of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of one additional counsel to the affected indemnified persons similarly situated, taken as a whole (and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction)) incurred by the indemnified person (including all such costs and expenses incurred to enforce the terms of any Debt Financing Letter) as they are actually incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, defending or settling any Claim, directly or indirectly, arising out of, relating to, resulting from or otherwise in connection with any of the foregoing, whether or not any indemnified person is a named party thereto or whether such Claim is brought by you, any of your affiliates or a third party (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations and waivers set forth in this Annex A); provided, however, that no indemnified person will be entitled to indemnity hereunder to the extent that it is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Loss resulted directly from (i) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified person (or its controlled affiliates and controlling persons and the respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors, agents and other representatives of each of the foregoing), (ii) the material breach of any Debt Financing Letter by such indemnified person (or its controlled affiliates and controlling persons and the respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors, agents and other representatives of each of the foregoing) or (iii) any disputes solely among indemnified persons and not arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or Holdings, or any of your or its respective controlled affiliates or controlling persons, and such indemnified person shall promptly repay such reimbursed costs and expenses to you. In addition, in no event will you or any of your affiliates or the Acquired Business or any indemnified person be liable for consequential, special, exemplary, punitive or indirect damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings), whether, directly or indirectly, as a result of any failure to fund all or any portion of the Debt Financing or otherwise arising out of, relating to, resulting from or otherwise in connection with the Debt Financing or arising out of, relating to, resulting from or otherwise in connection with any Claim or otherwise; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not limit or otherwise modify your and your affiliates’ and the Acquired Business’s and any indemnified person’s
