Exhibit 10.9


INDEMNITY AGREEMENT


 


THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of [•], 2021, between ENERGY CLOUD I ACQUISITION CORPORATION,
a British Virgin Islands company (the “Company”), and [•] (“Indemnitee”).


 


WITNESSETH THAT:


 


WHEREAS, highly competent
persons have become more reluctant to serve companies or corporations as directors or in other capacities unless they are provided with
adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising
out of their service to and activities on behalf of such companies or corporations;


 


WHEREAS, the Board
of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals,
the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company
and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice
among publicly traded corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends,
such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers,
and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming
litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise
itself. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company as may be amended and/or restated from time to
time (the “Articles”) provide for the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. Indemnitee
may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to applicable British Virgin Islands law. The indemnification provisions set forth in
the Articles are not exclusive, and contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers
and other persons with respect to indemnification;


 


WHEREAS, the uncertainties
relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons;


 


WHEREAS, the Board
has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s
shareholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;


 


WHEREAS, it is reasonable,
prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the Articles so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from
undue concern that they will not be so indemnified;


 


WHEREAS, this Agreement
is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Articles and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute
therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder;


 


WHEREAS, Indemnitee
does not regard the protection available under the Articles and insurance as adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing
to serve as an officer or director without adequate protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee
is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so
indemnified; and


 






     


     


    

 


NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of Indemnitee’s agreement to serve as a director from and after the date hereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


1. Indemnity of Indemnitee.
The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Articles, as such may
be amended from time to time; provided, however, that in no event shall Indemnitee be entitled to be indemnified,
held harmless or advanced any amounts hereunder in respect of any Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties
and amounts paid in settlement (if any) that Indemnitee may incur by reason of his or her own actual fraud, willful default or willful
neglect. The Indemnitee shall not be found to have committed actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect for any purpose of this
Agreement unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect. In furtherance of the foregoing
indemnification, and without limiting the generality thereof:


 


(a) Proceedings Other
Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section
l(a) if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party
to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section
1(a), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if 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 Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.


 


(b) Proceedings by or
in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 1(b) if,
by reason of his Corporate Status, the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding brought
by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually
and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if 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; provided, however,
if applicable law so provides. No indemnification against such Expenses shall be made under this Section 1(b) in respect
of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged by a court to be liable to the Company, unless and
only to the extent that any court in which the Proceeding was brought or the New York Court (as hereinafter defined) shall determine upon
application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnification.


 


(c) Indemnification
for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that
Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall
be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Articles, as such may be amended from time to time, against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If 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 Company
shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each successfully
resolved claim, issue or matter. 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.


 


2. Additional Indemnity.
In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the indemnification provided for in Section 1 of this Agreement,
the Company shall and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened
to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), including, without
limitation, all liability arising out of the negligence or active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee; provided, however,
that in no event shall Indemnitee be entitled to be indemnified, held harmless or advanced any amounts hereunder in respect of any Expenses,
judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if any) that Indemnitee may incur by reason of his or her own
actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect. The Indemnitee shall not be found to have committed actual fraud, willful default or
willful neglect for any purpose of this Agreement unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that
effect.

3. Contribution.


 


(a) Whether or not the indemnification
provided in Sections 1 and 2 hereof is available, in respect of any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding),
the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action, suit or proceeding without
requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have
against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly
liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final
release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.


 


(b) Without diminishing or impairing
the obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding subparagraph, if, for any reason, Indemnitee shall elect or be required to pay
all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company
is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount
of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion
to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are
jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other
hand, from the transaction from which such action, suit or proceeding arose; provided, however, that the proportion
determined on the basis of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary to conform to law, be further adjusted by reference to the relative
fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee
(or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the
events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which the
law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than
Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee,
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their actions were motivated by intent
to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary and the degree to which their conduct
is active or passive.


 


(c) The Company hereby agrees
to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by officers, directors or employees
of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.


 


(d) To the fullest extent permissible
under applicable law and the Articles, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason
whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by 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 as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances
of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and 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 Company (and its directors, officers, employees
and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).


 


4. Indemnification
for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his
Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked to) respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party,
he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith.


 


5. Advancement of
Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of
Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30) days after the receipt
by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or
after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee
and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced
if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Any advances and undertakings
to repay pursuant to this Section 5 shall be unsecured and interest free.

6. Procedures and
Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for Indemnitee rights
of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the applicable law and Articles. Accordingly, the parties agree that the
following procedures and presumptions shall apply in the event of any question as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement:


 


(a) To obtain indemnification
under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and
information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the
Board of Directors in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of Indemnitee
to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not relieve the Company of any liability
that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the interests of the Company.


 


(b) Upon written request by
Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of Section 6(a) hereof, a determination with respect to
Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case by one of the following four methods, which shall be at the
election of the board: (1) by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum, (2) by a committee of disinterested
directors designated by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum, (3) if there are no disinterested
directors or if the disinterested directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of
which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee, or (4) if so directed by the Board of Directors, by the shareholders of the Company. For purposes
hereof, disinterested directors are those members of the board of directors of the Company who are not parties to the action, suit or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.


 


(c) If the determination of
entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the Independent
Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 6(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors.
Indemnitee may, within 10 days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company 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 13 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 made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel selected
may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without
merit. If, within 20 days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof,
no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition New York Court or other
court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Indemnitee to the Company’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 6(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent
Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, and the Company
shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 6(c), regardless of the manner in which
such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.


 


(d) In making a determination
with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall presume that
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof
and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its directors or independent
legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is
proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company
(including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.


 


(e) Indemnitee shall be deemed
to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial
statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise (as hereinafter defined) 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 with reasonable care by the Enterprise. In addition,
the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to
Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section
6(e) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have
the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.


 






    4


     


    

 


(f) If the person, persons or
entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not
have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of
entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification absent (i) a
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make 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 person, persons or
entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time to obtain
or evaluate documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section
6(f) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the shareholders pursuant to Section
6(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination,
the Board of Directors or the Disinterested Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit such determination to the shareholders for their
consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such determination is made
thereat, or (B) an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders is convened by the Board of Directors within fifteen (15) days after
such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been
so called and such determination is made thereat.


 


(g) Indemnitee shall cooperate
with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to 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 Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any
Independent Counsel, member of the Board of Directors or shareholder of the Company shall act reasonably and in good faith in making a
determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’
fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be
borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby
indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.


 


(h) The Company acknowledges
that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction,
disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim or proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner
other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with
or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise
in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion
by clear and convincing evidence.


 


(i) 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 Indemnitee to indemnification
or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that
his conduct was unlawful.

7. Remedies of Indemnitee.


 


(a) In the event that (i) a
determination is made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination
of entitlement to indemnification is made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement within 90 days after receipt by
the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to this Agreement within ten (10)
days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after
a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant
to Section 6 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the New York Court to such indemnification.
Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his 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. Except as set forth herein, the provisions of Commercial Arbitration Rules
and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (without regard to its conflict of laws rules) shall apply to any such
arbitration. The Company shall not oppose 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 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any
judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the
merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b).


 


(c) If a determination shall
have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company
shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a misstatement
by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not materially misleading
in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law and the Articles.


 


(d) In the event that Indemnitee,
pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement,
or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, the Company shall
pay on his behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in Section 13 of
this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is
determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery.


 


(e) The Company shall be precluded
from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures and presumptions of
this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions
of this Agreement. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within
ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law or the Articles,
such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification
or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies
maintained by the Company, regardless of whether 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.


 


8. Non-Exclusivity;
Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation.


 


(a) The rights of indemnification
as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under
applicable law, the Articles, any agreement, a vote of shareholders, a resolution of directors or otherwise, of the Company. No amendment,
alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement
in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To
the extent that a change in the applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be
afforded currently under the Articles or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that 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.


 






    6


     


    

 


(b) To the extent that the Company
maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents or fiduciaries of
the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person
serves at the request of the Company, 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 director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If,
at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms 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) In the event of any payment
under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee (other
than against the Fund Indemnitors), who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including
execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.


 


(d) The Company shall not be
liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has
otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.


 


(e) The Company’s obligation
to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee
or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any
amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.


 


9. Exception to Right
of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make
any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:


 


(a) for which payment has actually
been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess beyond
the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or


 


(b) for 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, or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or


 


(c) in connection with any Proceeding
(or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee
against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board of Directors of the Company authorized
the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion,
pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.


 


10. Duration of Agreement.
All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee is an officer or director of
the Company (or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise) and shall continue for five (5) years thereafter or, if longer, so long as Indemnitee shall
be subject to any Proceeding (or any proceeding commenced under Section 7 hereof) by reason of his Corporate Status,
whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification
can be provided under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties
hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to
all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives.


 






    7


     


    

 


11. Security.
To the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company may at any time and from time
to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded
trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the prior written consent
of the Indemnitee.


 


12. Enforcement.


 


(a) The Company expressly confirms
and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve
as an officer or director of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as an

(b) This Agreement constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.


 


13. Definitions.
For purposes of this Agreement:


 


(a) “Corporate Status”
describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or of any other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person is or was serving at the express written
request of the Company.


 


(b) “New York Court”
shall mean the Court of Chancery of the State of New York.


 


(c) “Disinterested
Director” means a director of the Company who is not and was not a party to the Proceeding in respect of which indemnification
is sought by Indemnitee.


 


(d) “Enterprise”
shall mean the Company and any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that Indemnitee
is or was serving at the express written request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary.


 


(e) “Expenses”
shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, witness fees, travel expenses,
duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and all other disbursements or expenses
of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, participating,
or being or preparing to be a witness in a Proceeding, or responding to, or objecting to, a request to provide discovery in any Proceeding.
Expenses also shall include Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding and any federal, state, local
or foreign taxes imposed on the Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, including
without limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersede as bond, or other appeal bond or its
equivalent. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in settlement by Indemnitee or the amount of judgments or fines against
Indemnitee.


 


(f) “Independent Counsel”
means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither presently is, nor in the past
five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party (other than with
respect to matters concerning Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification agreements), or (ii)
any other party 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 have a
conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement.
The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent 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.

(g) “Proceeding”
includes any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry,
administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by or in the right of the Company or otherwise
and whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which Indemnitee was, is or will be involved as a party or otherwise,
by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an officer or director of the Company, by reason of any action taken by him or of any
inaction on his part while acting as an officer or director of the Company, or by reason of the fact that he is or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other Enterprise; in each case whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is
incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement; including one pending on or before the date of this Agreement,
but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement to enforce his rights under this
Agreement.


 


14. Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee indemnification rights to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable laws and the Articles. In the event any provision hereof conflicts with any applicable law, such provision
shall be deemed modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.


 


15. Modification and
Waiver. No supplement, modification, termination or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both
of 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 hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.


 


16. Notice by Indemnitee.
Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with or otherwise receiving any summons, citation, subpoena,
complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification covered
hereunder. The failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to Indemnitee under
this Agreement or otherwise unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.


 


17. Notices. All
notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a)
upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business
hours of the recipient, and if not so confirmed, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered
