without limitation, Expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually
and reasonably incurred in connection with any liability, suit, action, loss, or damage
arising or resulting from the Indemnitee's participation in the Activity, subject to the
limits on indemnification described in the section titled Exceptions to Indemnification.
Where prohibited by law, the above indemnification does not include indemnification of

agent or employee, or any third party under the control or supervision of the Indemnitee,
other than the Indemnifier or its agent, employee or subcontractor.

Exceptions to Indemnification
4. The Indemnitee will not be entitled to indemnification from the Indemnifier for any
Expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts incurred as the result of the
Indemnitee's participation in the Activity where:
a. in the case of a civil claim, the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a
reasonable manner;
b. in the case of a criminal action, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe its
conduct was unlawful;
c. the actions or conduct of the Indemnitee constituted willful misconduct or was
knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest;
d. the Indemnitee will or has received payment under a valid and collectible insurance
policy or under a valid and enforceable indemnity clause, bylaw or agreement,
except where payment under this insurance policy, clause, bylaw or agreement is
not sufficient to fully indemnify the Indemnitee in which case the Indemnifier will
be responsible for any shortfall in payment received; or
e. an action or proceeding was initiated in whole or in part by the Indemnitee whether
alone or along with one or more other claimants unless the action or proceeding
has the written consent of the Indemnifier.

are not entitled to indemnification.
Notice of Claim
6. In the event of any claim or action, the Indemnitee will promptly provide the Indemnifier
with written notice of the claim or action and will notify the Indemnifier within five
business days of the commencement of any legal proceedings relating to the claim or
action. The Indemnitee will provide the Indemnifier with all available information known
to the Indemnitee relating to the claim or action.
Authorization of Indemnification
7. In any case where the Indemnitee requires indemnification, the Indemnifier will make the
determination of whether indemnification is appropriate having given consideration to
the terms described in the Exceptions to Indemnification section. If the Indemnitee
disagrees with the determination of the Indemnifier then the matter must be referred for
review and determination to independent legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnitee. In all cases the Indemnifier will bear all costs of any independent
determination.
8. The Indemnifier will bear the burden of proving that indemnification is not appropriate.
9. The termination of any claim or action by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon an
admission of guilt or its equivalent will not, of itself, create a presumption that the person
did not act in good faith and in a reasonable manner or, in the case of a criminal action,
that the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the Indemnitee's conduct was
unlawful.
Assumption of Defense
10. On being notified of any impending action or claim, the Indemnifier may, at its own
Expense, participate in the defense of any action or claim and may, alone or with any
other indemnifying party, assume the defense against the action or claim using counsel
that are reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee.
11. Once the Indemnifier has notified the Indemnitee of the intention to assume the defense, the
Indemnifier will no longer be liable to the Indemnitee for any further Expenses
subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in relation to the defense of the claim. Once the
Indemnifier provides notice to the Indemnitee that the defense of claim has been assumed
by the Indemnifier, the Indemnitee may employ or continue to employ its own legal
counsel however any fees or Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee subsequent to the
notice of assumption of defense by the Indemnifier will be the sole responsibility of the
Indemnitee.
Failure to Defend
12. If the Indemnifier elects not to assume the defense against the claim or action then the
Indemnitee may defend against the claim or action in any manner the Indemnitee deems
appropriate. The Indemnifier will promptly reimburse the Indemnitee for Expenses,
judgments, fines, settlements and any other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in
connection with the defense of the claim or action subject to the limits on indemnification
described in the section titled Exceptions to Indemnification.
Settlement and Consent of Indemnifier
13. The Indemnitee will not settle any claim or action without first obtaining the written consent
of the Indemnifier. The Indemnifier will not be liable for any amounts paid in settlement
of any claim or action where written consent of the Indemnifier was not first obtained.
The Indemnifier will not unreasonably withhold consent to any settlement.

of the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee will not unreasonably withhold consent to any
settlement.
Cooperation
15. The Indemnifier agrees to cooperate in good faith and use best efforts to ensure that the
Indemnitee is indemnified and reimbursed for any and all Expenses, judgments, fines,
settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the
defense of any claim or action resulting from the participation of the Indemnitee in the
Activity.
16. The Indemnitee agrees to cooperate in good faith and provide any and all information within

determination of indemnification as described under the Authorization of Indemnification
section.

of defending any Third Party claims or actions brought against the Indemnitee under this
Agreement will be the sole responsibility of the Indemnifier subject to the limits on
indemnification described in the section titled Exceptions to Indemnification.
Advances of Expenses
19. At the written request of the Indemnitee, the Indemnifier will advance to the Indemnitee any
Expenses, including lawyers' fees, incurred by the Indemnitee in defending any action
brought against the Indemnitee. Where reasonable, and to minimize hardship to the
Indemnitee, advance payments may be made prior to the disposition of any claim.
20. The Indemnitee agrees to repay to the Indemnifier any advance payments of Expenses where
a determination is ultimately made that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
for reasons described under the Indemnification and the Exceptions to Indemnification
sections.
Payment
21. All payments made by the Indemnifier to the Indemnitee will be made in full in immediately

then bring suit against the Indemnifier to recover any unpaid amounts and if successful in
whole or in part, the Indemnitee will be entitled to be paid any and all costs related to
resolving the claim.
24. Where a determination as described under Authorization of Indemnification concludes that
the Indemnitee's behavior is not entitled to indemnification, this will not create a
presumption that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

acceptable to the Indemnitee on terms reasonable and sufficient to indemnify the
