Exhibit 10.32


 


INDEMNITY AGREEMENT


 


THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is made as of [___], 2022, by and between MOONLAKE IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, a Cayman Islands exempted company
(the “Company”), and [___] (“Indemnitee”).


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, highly competent
persons have become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers 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 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, if any, from certain liabilities;


 


WHEREAS, 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;


 


WHEREAS, the amended
and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the “Articles”) require indemnification of the
directors and officers of the Company, Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to applicable Cayman Islands law and
the indemnification provisions set forth in the Articles are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into
between the Company and members of the Board, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification, holding such persons harmless,
exoneration, advancement of expenses and reimbursement rights;


 


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, hold harmless, exonerate and to advance expenses
on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company
free from undue concern that they will not be so protected against liabilities;


 


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; and


 




     


     


    

 


WHEREAS, Indemnitee
may not be willing to serve as an officer or director, advisor or in another capacity, 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 or she be so indemnified;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

4. INDEMNITY
IN PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if
Indemnitee was, is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise) in any Proceeding
by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this
Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. No indemnification,

that any court or arbitration in which the Proceeding was brought 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, to be held
harmless or to exoneration.


 


5. INDEMNIFICATION
FOR EXPENSES OF A PARTY WHO IS WHOLLY OR PARTLY SUCCESSFUL. Notwithstanding any other provisions
of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee was or is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, 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 Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against
all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her 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, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or
matter. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding, the Company also shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses reasonably incurred in connection with a claim, issue or
matter related to any claim, issue, or matter on which Indemnitee was successful. For purposes of this Section 5 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 extent
that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a witness or deponent in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party,
he or she shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.


 


7. ADDITIONAL
INDEMNIFICATION, HOLD HARMLESS AND EXONERATION RIGHTS. Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections
3, 4, or 5, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate
Indemnitee 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, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including
all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties
and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. No indemnification,
hold harmless or exoneration rights shall be available under this Section 7 on account of Indemnitee’s conduct which constitutes
a breach of Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders or is an act or omission not in good faith or which
involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law.


 


8. CONTRIBUTION
IN THE EVENT OF JOINT LIABILITY.


 


(a) Subject
to the limitations set forth in limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable
law, if the indemnification, hold harmless and/or exoneration rights provided for in this Agreement are unavailable to Indemnitee in whole
or in part for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying, holding harmless or exonerating Indemnitee, shall pay, in
the first instance, the entire amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, amounts paid or to
be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any Proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment,
and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have at any time against Indemnitee.


 


(b) The
Company shall not enter into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined
in such Proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.


 


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

9. EXCLUSIONS.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement
to make any indemnification, advance expenses, hold harmless or exoneration payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:


 


(a) for
which payment has actually been received by or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity or advancement provision
or otherwise, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount actually received under any insurance policy, contract, agreement, other
indemnity or advancement provision or otherwise;


 


(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 Exchange Act (or any successor rule) or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or


 


(c) except
as otherwise provided in Sections 14(e) and (f) hereof, prior to a Change of Control, 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 authorized the Proceeding (or any
part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payment,
in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law. Indemnitee shall seek payments or advances
from the Company only to the extent that such payments or advances are unavailable from any insurance policy of the Company covering Indemnitee.


 


10. ADVANCES
OF EXPENSES; DEFENSE OF CLAIM.


 


(a) Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, and to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company shall pay the Expenses
incurred by Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee within three months) in connection with any
Proceeding within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to
time, prior to the final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unsecured and interest
free. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses.
Advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing a Proceeding to enforce this right of advancement, including
Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. To the fullest extent required
by applicable law, such payments of Expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon the Company’s
receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Indemnitee, to repay the advanced amounts to the extent that it is ultimately determined
that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated by the Company under the provisions of this Agreement,
the Articles, applicable law or otherwise. This Section 10(a) shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which an indemnification,
hold harmless or exoneration payment is excluded pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not advance
or continue to advance Expenses to the Indemnitee if a determination is reasonably made that the facts known at the time such determination
is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or in a manner that the Indemnitee did not reasonably
believe 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 his or her conduct was unlawful.


 


(b) The
Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense.


 


(c) The
Company shall not settle any action, claim or Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, judgment, fine, penalty
or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

11. PROCEDURE
FOR NOTIFICATION AND APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION.


 


(a) Indemnitee
agrees to notify promptly 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, hold harmless or exoneration rights, or
advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of Indemnitee 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 to the extent that, such failure actually and materially
prejudices the interests of the Company.


 


(b) Indemnitee
may deliver to the Company a written application to indemnify, hold harmless or exonerate Indemnitee in accordance with this Agreement.
Such application(s) may be delivered from time to time and at such time(s) as Indemnitee deems appropriate in his or her sole discretion.
Following such a written application for indemnification by Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be determined
according to Section 12(a) of this Agreement.


 


12. PROCEDURE
UPON APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION.


 


(a) A determination, if
required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made in the specific case by one
of the following methods: (i) if no Change of Control has occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, whether or
not such majority constitutes a quorum of the Board, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of such
directors, whether or not such majority constitutes a quorum, or (C) if there are no Disinterested Directors, or if such Disinterested
Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (D)
the shareholders of the Company; or (ii) if a Change of Control has occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board,
a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. The Company promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination
that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has
been denied. The determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be made and, unless a contrary determination is made, such indemnification
shall be paid in full by the Company not later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days after receipt by the Company of a written
request for indemnification and (ii) ten (10) calendar days after determination has been made that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
pursuant to this Agreement. Indemnitee shall reasonably 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 costs or Expenses (including reasonable 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.


 


(b) In
the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof,
the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12(b). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board
of Directors and approved by the Indemnitee, except that in the event that a Change of Control has occurred, Independent Counsel shall
be selected by the Indemnitee. If the Independent Counsel is selected by the Board, the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee
advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets
the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. In either event, Indemnitee or
the Company, as the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to
the Company or to Indemnitee, 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 such 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
Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected
and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Cayman Court for resolution of any objection which shall have been
made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel
of a person selected by the Cayman Court, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed
shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration
pursuant to Section 14(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).


 


(c) The
Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel and to fully indemnify and hold harmless such Independent
Counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant
hereto.

13. PRESUMPTIONS
AND EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS.


 


(a) In
making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination
shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification
in accordance with Section 11(b) of this Agreement, and the Company shall 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 Disinterested Directors or Independent 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 the Disinterested Directors or Independent 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.


 


(b) If
the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement 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, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 final judicial determination that any or all such indemnification is expressly prohibited 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 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 Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee
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 Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.


 


(d) For purposes of any
determination of good faith, 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 directors, trustees,
general partners, managers or managing members of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for
the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member of the Enterprise,
or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee,
general partner, manager or managing member of the Enterprise, by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other
expert selected by the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing
member. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances
in which Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.


 


(e) The
knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, agent
or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

14. REMEDIES
OF INDEMNITEE.


 


(a) In
the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) the advancement of Expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, is not timely made pursuant
to Section 10 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section
12(a) of this Agreement within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification
is not made pursuant to Sections 5, 6, 7 or the last sentence of Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ten
(10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) a contribution payment is not made in a timely manner pursuant
to Section 8 of this Agreement, (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 Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vii) payment to Indemnitee
pursuant to any hold harmless or exoneration rights under this Agreement or otherwise is not made within ten (10) days after receipt by
the Company of a written request therefor, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the Cayman Court to such indemnification,
hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or advancement rights. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his or her option, may seek an award in
arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American
Arbitration Association. Except as set forth herein, the provisions of Cayman Islands law (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 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled
to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects
as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to be indemnified,
held harmless, exonerated to receive advances of Expenses under this Agreement and the Company shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee
is not entitled to be indemnified, held harmless, exonerated and to receive advances of Expenses, as the case may be, and the Company
may not refer to or introduce into evidence any determination pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement adverse to Indemnitee
for any purpose. If Indemnitee commences a judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall not
be required to reimburse the Company for any advances pursuant to Section 10 until a final determination is made with respect to
Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification (as to which all rights of appeal have been exhausted or lapsed).


 


(c) If
a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14,
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.


 


(d) The
Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 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 Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.


 


(e) The
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against all Expenses and, if requested by
Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of such written request) pay to Indemnitee, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, such Expenses which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any judicial proceeding or arbitration
brought by Indemnitee (i) to enforce his or her rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement or any other indemnification,
hold harmless, exoneration, advancement or contribution agreement or provision of the Articles now or hereafter in effect; or (ii) for
recovery or advances under any insurance policy maintained by any person for the benefit of Indemnitee, regardless of the outcome and
whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration right, advancement, contribution
or insurance recovery, as the case may be (unless such judicial proceeding or arbitration was not brought by Indemnitee in good faith).


 






    9


     


    

 


(f) Interest
shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee at the legal rate under New York law for amounts which the Company indemnifies, holds harmless
or exonerates, or is obliged to indemnify, hold harmless or exonerate for the period commencing with the date on which Indemnitee requests
indemnification, to be held harmless, exonerated, contribution, reimbursement or advancement of any Expenses and ending with the date
on which such payment is made to Indemnitee by the Company.


 


15. NON-EXCLUSIVITY;
SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION.


 


(a) The rights of Indemnitee
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 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 Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect
of any Proceeding (regardless of when such Proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) arising out of, or related to, any
action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent
that a change in applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration
rights or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Articles or this Agreement, then this Agreement (without
any further action by the parties hereto) shall automatically be deemed to be amended to require that the Company indemnify Indemnitee
to the fullest extent permitted by law. 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) The
Companies Act and the Articles permit the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements
including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond (“Indemnification Arrangements”)
on behalf of Indemnitee against any liability asserted against him or her or incurred by or on behalf of him or her or in such capacity
as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Company would
have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement or under the Companies Act, as it
may then be in effect. The purchase, establishment, and maintenance of any such Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way limit
or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or of Indemnitee under this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Indemnitee shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations
of the Company or the other party or parties thereto under any such Indemnification Arrangement.


 


(c) To
the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, trustees,
partners, managing members, fiduciaries, employees, or agents of the Company or of any other Enterprise which 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 such director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent under such policy
or policies. If, at the time the Company receives notice from any source of a Proceeding as to which Indemnitee is a party or a participant
(as a witness or otherwise), the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice
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 Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such
Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.


 


(d) In
the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be subrogated to the extent
of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, 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.


 






    10


     


    

 


(e) The Company’s
obligation to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of
the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise shall be
reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payments or advancement of expenses
from such Enterprise. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) Indemnitee shall have no obligation
to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement, contribution or insurance
coverage among multiple parties possessing such duties to Indemnitee prior to the Company’s satisfaction and performance of all
its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) the Company shall perform fully its obligations under this Agreement without regard to
whether Indemnitee holds, may pursue or has pursued any indemnification, advancement, hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or insurance
coverage rights against any person or entity other than the Company.


 


16. DURATION
OF AGREEMENT. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during
the period Indemnitee serves as a director or officer of the Company or as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary,
employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other Enterprise which Indemnitee
serves at the request of the Company and shall continue thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding
(including any rights of appeal thereto and any Proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement) by
reason of his or her Corporate Status, whether or not he is acting in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred
for which indemnification or advancement can be provided under this Agreement.


 


17. 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, paragraph or sentence 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, paragraph or sentence 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.


 


18. ENFORCEMENT
AND BINDING EFFECT.


 


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


 


(b) Without
limiting any of the rights of Indemnitee under the Articles as they may be amended from time to time, 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.


 


(c) The indemnification,
hold harmless, exoneration and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be binding upon
and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (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), shall continue as to an Indemnitee
who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or director or officer of any other Enterprise at the Company’s
request, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his or her spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and
other legal representatives.


 






    11


     


    

 


(d) The
Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, substantially
all or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee,
expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
perform if no such succession had taken place.


 


(e) The
Company and Indemnitee agree herein that a monetary remedy for breach of this Agreement, at some later date, may be inadequate, impracticable
and difficult of proof, and further agree that such breach may cause Indemnitee irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree
that Indemnitee may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, enforce this Agreement by seeking, among other things, injunctive relief
and/or specific performance hereof, without any necessity of showing actual damage or irreparable harm and that by seeking injunctive
relief and/or specific performance, Indemnitee shall not be precluded from seeking or obtaining any other relief to which he may be entitled.
The Company and Indemnitee further agree that Indemnitee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be entitled to such specific performance
and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, without the necessity
of posting bonds or other undertaking in connection therewith. The Company acknowledges that in the absence of a waiver, a bond or undertaking
may be required of Indemnitee by a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Company hereby waives any such requirement of such a bond
or undertaking to the fullest extent permitted by law.


 


19. 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.

21. APPLICABLE
LAW AND CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. This 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 New York, without regard to its conflict of laws
rules. Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) agree that any action or proceeding arising
out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Cayman Court and not in any state or federal court in the United
States of America or any court in any other country; (b) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Cayman Court for purposes
of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement; (c) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any

22. IDENTICAL
COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall
for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart
signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.


 


23. MISCELLANEOUS.
Use of the masculine pronoun shall be deemed to include usage of the feminine pronoun where appropriate.
The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this
Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.


 


24. PERIOD
OF LIMITATIONS. No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or
in the right of the Company against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives after
the expiration of two years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the Company shall be
extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such two-year period; provided, however,
that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter period shall govern.


 


25. ADDITIONAL
ACTS. If for the validation of any of the provisions in this Agreement any act, resolution, approval
or other procedure is required to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company undertakes to cause such act, resolution, approval
or other procedure to be affected or adopted in a manner that will enable the Company to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.


 


26. MAINTENANCE
OF INSURANCE. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain in
effect during the entire period for which the Company is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement, one or more policies
of insurance with reputable insurance companies to provide the officers/directors of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful
acts and omissions and to ensure the Company’s performance of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. 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 or officer under such policy or policies. In all such insurance policies, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured
in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee with the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the
Company’s directors and officers.
