Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date; provided, that the representations and warranties in Section 3.01, Section 3.02, Section 3.09, Section 3.15, Section 3.17, Section 3.18, Section 4.01, Section 4.02, Section 4.03, Section 4.04 Section 4.05, and Section 4.06 (the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus 60 days.

Section 8.02                            Indemnification By Dorian. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, Dorian shall indemnify and defend each of Scorpio and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Scorpio Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Scorpio Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

 

(a)                                 any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Dorian contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Dorian pursuant to this Agreement (in each case determined without regard to any qualifications therein referencing “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or other words of similar import or effect) as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or

 

24











 

(b)                                 any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Dorian pursuant to this Agreement or in any Transaction Document.

 

Section 8.03                            Indemnification By Scorpio. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, Scorpio shall indemnify and defend each of Dorian and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Dorian Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Dorian Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(b)                                 any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Scorpio pursuant to this Agreement or in any Transaction Document.

 

Section 8.04                            Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

 

(a)                                 Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is Dorian, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such

 

25











 

Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.04(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.04(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Dorian and Scorpio shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

 

(b)                                 Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.04(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.04(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

26











 

(c)                                  Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request.

 

Section 8.05                            Payments.  Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within 15 Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such 15 Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to 3.25%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

 

Section 8.06                            Limitation on Indemnification.

 

(a)                                 No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 until the aggregate amount of Losses suffered by such Indemnified Party hereunder exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Deductible”), after which Indemnified Party shall be indemnified for the entire amount of Losses in excess of the Deductible up to the amount of the Cap (as defined below).  The aggregate amount of Losses for which any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 shall be $10,000,000 (the “Cap”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Deductible nor the Cap shall apply to claims made with respect to any Fundamental Representation.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the parties shall take commercially reasonable steps (to the extent then available or possible) to mitigate all Losses (including by pursuing available insurance and third party claims) upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give

 

27











 

rise to such Losses (provided that the costs of such mitigation shall be indemnifiable Losses hereunder).

 

Section 8.07                            Losses Net of Insurance; Damages; Mitigation.  The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 shall be net of (a) any insurance proceeds (net of any costs of investigation of the underlying claim and of collection) received as an offset against such Loss (each such source of recovery, a “Collateral Source”) and (b) an amount equal to the present value of the tax benefit, if any, attributable to such Loss.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, no indemnification shall be provided under the Agreement with respect to any Losses that are incidental damages, consequential damages, special damages, damages arising out of business interruption or lost profits, damages arising through the application of any multiplier to any Losses or punitive damages; provided that Losses of any Indemnified Party will include any of such Losses to the extent that they are actually adjudicated as due and actually paid by such Indemnified Party to a third party in connection with an indemnified third party claim.

 

Section 8.08                            Effect of Investigation. The right to indemnification or other remedy based on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

 

Section 8.09                            Exclusive Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraudulent, criminal or intentional misconduct.
