counsel) and disbursements of any kind whatsoever (together, “Liabilities”) arising out of or by reason of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other

consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or in any other Credit Document or the exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, the fees and
disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such Proceeding (but excluding any such Liabilities to the extent determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to specifically have been proximately caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentences may
be unenforceable, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Parties or any of them.

ESG Laws or any licenses, orders, requirements or demands of any Governmental Authority related thereto (including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and litigation expenses), except to the extent determined by the
final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to specifically have been proximately caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties.
