 3.6 Exculpation and Indemnification. 

(a) Neither the Member nor any Officer (each, a “Covered Person”) shall be liable to the Company, or any person
claiming by or through the Company, for any loss, liability or damage incurred by the Company or such claiming person by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by the Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company, except that a
Covered Person may be liable for any such loss, liability or damage incurred by the Company or such claiming person by reason of such Covered Person’s knowing violation of the law or intentional misconduct. 

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any loss,
judgment, fine, penalty, damages, amounts paid in settlement, and actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Covered Person in connection with any claim, demand, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding asserted by a third party against

on the provisions of this Agreement or any approval or authorization granted by the Company or any other Covered Person. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise
existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Member to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Covered Person. 
 (e) Nothing in
this Section 3.6, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed (i) to give any Person other than a Covered Person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Section 3.6 or any
provision contained herein, (ii) to limit the power or authority of the Company under the Act to indemnify, hold harmless or advance expenses to any Covered Person, employee, agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company from and
against any claims or demands whatsoever and (iii) to preclude any rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses that a Covered Person may have from any other person or entity, including the Member or any direct or indirect parent entity
