 that Lazard Group LLC will indemnify each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was (i) a director or officer of Lazard Group LLC, (ii) a director or officer of Lazard, Inc., or (iii) serving at the request of Lazard Group LLC as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise or person to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment would permit Lazard Group LLC to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted Lazard Group LLC to provide prior to such amendment), if Lazard Group LLC were a corporation organized under the DGCL. Such indemnification rights shall not apply in connection with any action, suit, or proceeding initiated by such person, unless the action, suit, or proceeding was authorized by the board of directors of Lazard Group LLC.

The indemnification provided for by Lazard Group LLC’s Operating Agreement and Delaware law is not exclusive of any other rights of indemnification, and a company may maintain insurance against liabilities for which indemnification is not expressly provided by the DLLCA. Lazard Group LLC maintains directors’ and officers’ insurance policies that cover its directors and officers.
