Indemnity Agreement



 Exhibit 10.1 
 INDEMNITY AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT is made as of August 1, 2007, by and among Trump
Entertainment Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Trump Plaza Associates, LLC (the “Plaza”), Trump Taj Mahal Associates, LLC (the “Taj”), Trump Marina Associates, LLC (the “Marina”), (the
“Marina” and, collectively with the Plaza, the Taj, and the Company, the “Indemnitors”), and Ivanka M. Trump (the “Indemnitee”), a director of the Company. 
 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, although the Certificate of Incorporation and the
By-laws of the Company provide for indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company and the Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), the Certificate of
Incorporation and the DGCL expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board of Directors of the Company
(the”Board”) with respect to indemnification of directors; and 
 WHEREAS, each of the Indemnitors other than the Company, is,
directly or indirectly, a wholly-owned or majority owned subsidiary of the Company or is, directly or indirectly, managed by the Company, and the Indemnitee’s continued service to the Company substantially benefits each of the Indemnitors; and

 WHEREAS, the limited liability company agreement or certificate of incorporation and by-laws, as the case may be, of each of the Plaza,
the Taj, and the Marina authorizes each such corporation or limited liability company to indemnify its members, directors and officers and those who serve on the board of directors of an affiliated entity, including service on the Board; and

 WHEREAS, the Board and all of the members or directors, as the case may be, of each the Plaza, the Taj, and the Marina have determined
that it is in the best interest of each of the Indemnitors and that it is reasonably prudent and necessary for each of the Indemnitors contractually to obligate itself, jointly and severally, to indemnify, and to advance Expenses on behalf of, the
Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in order to induce her to serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that she will not be so indemnified or that any indemnification obligation will not be met; and

 WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of (a) the Certificate and Bylaws of the Company, and (b) the
provisions of the limited liability company agreement or certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as the case may be, of each of the Plaza, the Taj, and the Marina, and (c) the certificate of incorporation and by laws, limited liability company
agreement, partnership agreement or other organizational documents, as the case may be, of any other Enterprise (as defined below) and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or
abrogate any rights of the Indemnitee thereunder; and 
 WHEREAS, the Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the
Company’s or any other Enterprise’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents and insurance as adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to continue to serve as a director of the Company or
any other Enterprise without adequate protection, and the Indemnitors desire the Indemnitee to continue to serve in such capacity. The Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the
Company and certain other Enterprises on the condition that she be so indemnified; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and
the covenants contained herein, the Indemnitors and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows: 
 1. Services to the Company and
Certain Other Enterprises. The Indemnitee will serve or continue to serve as a director of the Company and certain other Enterprises for so long as the Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed or until the Indemnitee tenders her resignation. This
Agreement shall not be viewed as an employment contract between the Company or the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee.

reason of any action taken by her or of any action on her part while acting as director of the Company, or by reason of the fact that she is or was serving as a director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or
fiduciary of any other Enterprise, in each case whether or not serving in such capacity at the time any Expense, judgment, fine or amount paid in settlement is incurred for which indemnification, reimbursement, or advancement of Expenses can be
provided under this Agreement; except one initiated by the Indemnitee to enforce her rights under this Agreement. 
 h.
“Independent Counsel” means a law firm, or a member of the a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither currently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Indemnitors or
the Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party (other than with respect to matters concerning the Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnities under similar indemnification agreements) or (ii) any other part to the
Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would

Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto and to be jointly and severally liable
therefor. 







 3. Indemnity in Third-Party Proceedings. The Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to
indemnify the Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 if the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant (as a witness or otherwise) in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the
right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 3, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, against all Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee or on her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe that her conduct was unlawful. 
 4. Indemnity in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. The Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if the Indemnitee is, or is
threatened to be made, a party to or a participant (as a witness or otherwise) in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 4, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by her or on her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner
she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. No indemnification for Expenses shall be made under this Section 4 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which the Indemnitee shall have been finally
adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that any court in which the Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of
all circumstances of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. 
 5. Indemnification for Expenses of
a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that the Indemnitee is a party to (or a participant in) and is successful, on
the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, in whole or in part, the Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by her in connection therewith. If the Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Indemnitors
shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee or on her behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. If the Indemnitee is not
wholly successful in such Proceeding, the Indemnitors also shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Indemnitee against all Expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any claim, issue or matter that is related to any claim, issue,
or matter on which the Indemnitee was successful. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful
result as to such claim, issue or matter. 
 6. Indemnification For Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that the Indemnitee is, by reason of her Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding to which the Indemnitee is not a party, she shall be indemnified against all
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee or on her behalf in connection therewith. 







 7. Additional Indemnification. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, the Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Indemnitee
to the fullest extent permitted by law if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. No indemnity shall be made under this Section 7(a) on account of the Indemnitee’s conduct which has been adjudicated to
constitute a breach of the Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders or an act or omission not in good faith or which involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, 5 or 7(a), the Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify Indemnitee to the
fullest extent permitted by law if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. 
 (c) For purposes of
Sections 7(a) and 7(b), the meaning of the phrase “to the fullest extent permitted by law” shall include, but not be limited to: 
 (i) to the fullest extent permitted by the provision of the DGCL that authorizes or contemplates additional indemnification by agreement, or the corresponding provision of any amendment to or replacement of the DGCL; and 
 (ii) to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that
increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors. 
 8. Exclusions. Notwithstanding any provision
in this Agreement, the Indemnitors shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against the Indemnitee: 
 a. for which payment has actually been received by or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount actually received under any
insurance policy or other indemnity provision; 
 b. for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and
purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or
(ii) any reimbursement of the Company by the Indemnitee of any bonus or other equity-based or incentive-based compensation or of any profits realized by the Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under
the Exchange Act; or 
 c. except as provided in Section 13(e) hereof, in connection with any Proceeding (or any part thereof) initiated
by the Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Indemnitee against the Company or its officers, directors and other Indemnitees unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or part thereof) prior to its
initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to its powers under applicable law. 
 9. Advancement of Expenses; Defense of Claim. 
 a. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally obligated to advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, any and all Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or
statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. 








 
Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to the Indemnitee’s ability to repay the advances and without
regard to the Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including
Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The Indemnitee shall qualify for advances solely upon the execution and delivery to the Company of an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee
undertakes to repay the advance to the extent and only to the extent that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Indemnitors. This Section 9 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for
which indemnification is excluded under Section 8 hereof. 
 b. The Company will be entitled to participate reasonably in the Proceeding
at its own expense. 
 10. Procedure for Notification and Request for Indemnification. 
 a. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall submit to the Company written notification not later than sixty (60) days
after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding except for Proceedings pending as of the date of this Agreement; with regard to such pending Proceedings, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company written notification not
later than sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement. The submission of written notification by the Indemnitee to the Company shall be deemed to be made as to all the Indemnitors. The omission to notify the Company will relieve an
Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement only to the extent such Indemnitor can establish that such omission to notify resulted in actual prejudice to it, and the omission to notify the Company will not relieve the
Indemnitors from any liability which they may have to indemnify the Indemnitee otherwise than under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of notification from the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 10(a),
advise the Board and the other Indemnitors in writing that the Indemnitee has provided such notification. 
 b. Following notification by the
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10(a) of this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall thereafter, consistent with the time period for the duration of this Agreement as set forth in Section 15 of this Agreement, submit to the Company a written
request for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10(b), including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The submission by the Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification to the Company shall be deemed to be made as to all Indemnitors. The failure to submit a written request to the Company will relieve
an Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement only to the extent such Indemnitor can establish that such failure to make a written request resulted in actual prejudice to it, and the failure to make a written request will not
relieve the Indemnitors from any liability which they may have to indemnify the Indemnitee otherwise than under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board and the
other Indemnitors in writing that the Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Upon submission of a written request for indemnification by the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 10(b), the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification
shall be determined according to Section 11 of this Agreement. 
 11. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification. 

a. Upon receipt of the Indemnitee’s written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(b), a determination with respect thereto
shall be made in the specific case: (i) by the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum, so long as the Indemnitee does not request that such determination be made by Independent Counsel; or (ii) if so requested by the
Indemnitee in her sole discretion, or if there are no Disinterested Directors, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee; and if it is so determined that the Indemnitee is entitled
to indemnification, payment to the Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to the
Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is
reasonably available to the Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Indemnitee in so cooperating with the Disinterested Directors or
Independent Counsel, as the case may be, making such determination shall be advanced and borne by the Indemnitors (irrespective of the determination as to the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Indemnitors are hereby jointly
and severally liable to indemnify and hold the Indemnitee harmless therefrom. 







 b. In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel
pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 11(b). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Indemnitee (unless the Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by
the Board, in which event the Board shall make such selection on behalf of the Company, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 11(b)), and the Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, shall give written notice to the other,
advising it or him of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. The Company or the Indemnitee, as the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Indemnitee
or the Company, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent
Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If
a written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is
without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission by the Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the
Company or the Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or the Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as
Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under
Section 11(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 13(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity
(subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing). 
 12. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings. 

 a. In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if the Indemnitee has submitted a notice and a request for indemnification in accordance with
Section 10 of this Agreement, and the Indemnitors shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination
contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by the Board) or of Independent Counsel to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Agreement that
indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by the Board) or by Independent Counsel that the Indemnitee has not met such
applicable standard of conduct, shall be admissible in evidence against the Indemnitee or otherwise referred to in any such judicial proceeding or arbitration for any purpose (including without limitation to rebut the presumption in favor of
indemnification) or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
 b. Subject to
Section 13(f), if the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 11 of this Agreement to determine whether the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days
after receipt by the Company of the Indemnitee’s written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(b) of this Agreement, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by
law, be deemed to have been made and the Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by the Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make the Indemnitee’s statement
not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed
an additional thirty (30) days, if the Disinterested Directors of the Independent Counsel, as the case may be, making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining
or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto. 







 c. The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order,
settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of the Indemnitee to indemnification or create a
presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that the Indemnitee had reasonable
cause to believe that her conduct was unlawful. 
 d. Reliance as Safe Harbor. For purposes of any determination of good faith, the
Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if the Indemnitee’s action or failure to act is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to the Indemnitee by
the officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser
or other expert selected by the Enterprise. The provisions of this Section 12(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable
standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement. 
 e. Actions of Others. The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other
director, partner, managing member, officer, agent, employee or trustee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to the Indemnitee for purposes of determining her right to indemnification under this Agreement. 
 13. Remedies of the Indemnitee. 
 a.
Subject to 13(f), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made
pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement, (iii) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5, 6, 7 or the last sentence of Section 11(a) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a
written request therefor, (iv) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
(v) in the event the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the
benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, or (vi) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that the
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vii) the Indemnitee determines in its sole discretion that such action is appropriate or desirable, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to seek an adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction as
to her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, the Indemnitee, at her option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association; provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not apply in respect of a Proceeding brought by Indemnitee to enforce her rights under Section 5 of this Agreement. The Indemnitors shall not oppose the
Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration. 
 b. In the event that a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Section 11 (a) of this Agreement that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration, commenced pursuant to this Section 13, shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial,
or arbitration, on the merits, and the Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 13, the Indemnitors shall have the burden of proving
the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be, and the Indemnitors may not refer to or introduce into evidence any determination pursuant to Section 11 (a) adverse to the Indemnitee for
purposes of satisfying the Indemnitors’ burden of proof or for any other purpose. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 13, in the event that the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under
Section 11 of this Agreement to determine whether the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification has not made such a determination within the time period provided for under Section 12(b) of this Agreement, the Indemnitors shall stipulate
and may not contest that the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or Proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe her conduct was unlawful. 







 c. If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 11(a) of this Agreement that the
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Indemnitors shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 13, absent (i) a misstatement by the Indemnitee of a material
fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make the Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

 d. In the event that the Indemnitee is a party to a judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Section 13 concerning her
rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Indemnitors (each of whom shall be jointly and severally liable therefor), and shall be indemnified by the Indemnitors against,
any and all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by her in such judicial adjudication or arbitration. If it shall be determined in said judicial adjudication or arbitration that the Indemnitee is entitled to receive part but not all of the
indemnification or advancement of Expenses sought, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Indemnitors (who shall be jointly and severally liable therefor), and shall be indemnified by the Indemnitors against, any and all Expenses
reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such judicial adjudication or arbitration. 
 e. The Indemnitors shall be precluded,
to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 13 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall
stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Indemnitors are bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. It is the intent of the Company that the Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated
with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee
hereunder. The Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by the Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request
therefor) advance, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, such Expenses to the Indemnitee that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any judicial adjudication or arbitration involving the Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement
of Expenses from the Indemnitors under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether the Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such
indemnification, advancement of Expenses or insurance recovery, as the case may be. 
 f. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding. 
 14. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance. 
 a. The rights of indemnification and to receive
advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Company’s or any other Enterprise’s Articles of
Incorporation, the Company’s or any other Enterprise’s Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or
restrict any right of the Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect to any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by
statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Company’s or any other Enterprise’s Bylaws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that
the Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other right or remedy. 
 b. To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability
insurance for directors, partners, managing members, officers, employees, agents or trustees of the Company or of any other Enterprise, the Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms 








 
to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or trustee under such policy or
policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to Section 10 (a) hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such
Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as
a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 
 c. The Indemnitors shall not be liable under this Agreement to
make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) hereunder if and only to the extent that the Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement
or otherwise. 
 d. The Indemnitors obligation hereunder to indemnify, or advance Expenses to, the Indemnitee who was, is or will be serving
as a director, partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or trustee of any other Enterprise shall be reduced by any amount the Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such other Enterprise.

 15. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) 10 years after the date
that the Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director of the Company or as a director, partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or trustee of any other Enterprise; or (b) 1 year after the final termination (i) of any
Proceeding (including any rights of appeal) then pending in respect of which the Indemnitee requests indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and (ii) of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 13 of this
Agreement (including any rights of appeal) involving the Indemnitee. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Indemnitors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee and her heirs, executors and administrators.

 16. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any
reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be
deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation,
each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

 17. Enforcement. 
 a.
The Indemnitors expressly confirm and agree that they have entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on them hereby in order to induce the Indemnitee to continue to serve as a director of the Company, and the Indemnitors
acknowledge that the Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director of the Company. 
 b. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided,
however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company and applicable law, and shall not be deemed to be a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate the rights of
the Indemnitee thereunder. 
 18. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding
unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.








 19. Notice by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon
being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of the
Indemnitee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Indemnitors of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise.

 21. Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to
the Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Indemnitors, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by the Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in
settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee as a result of
the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Indemnitors (and its directors, officers, employees, and agents) and the Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or
transaction(s).

Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration

shall be brought only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country (ii) consent to submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) appoint, to the extent such party is not a resident of the State of Delaware, irrevocably RL&F

such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum. 
 23.
