Company shall provide Contributor with copies of any such filings. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
(c)In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the assignment and transfer of the Transferred Assets made hereunder shall constitute outright sales or contributions of the Transferred Assets rather than loans secured thereby, in connection with the transfer and conveyance of the Transferred Assets Contributor has, at its own expense caused its records to be marked on the Effective Date to show that the Transferred Assets have been transferred to Company in accordance with this Agreement.
(d)On the Effective Date, Contributor and Company shall jointly deliver the Licensee Instruction Letter to Licensee.

Section 2.04Intent.
(a)Contributor and Company intend that the transfer by Contributor to Company of the Transferred Assets pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall be true, absolute and irrevocable, shall constitute a valid transfer and conveyance by Contributor of the Transferred Assets and shall provide Company with the full benefits of ownership of the Transferred Assets, and that the Transferred Assets shall not be part of Contributor’s estate in the event of the insolvency or bankruptcy of Contributor.
(b)Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.04(a), as a precaution to address the possibility that, notwithstanding that Contributor and Company expressly intend and expect that the sale, contribution, assignment, transfer, conveyance and grant of the Transferred Assets hereunder shall be a true, absolute and irrevocable sale and assignment and a true, absolute and irrevocable contribution for all purposes, to protect the interest of Company in the event that such sale and assignment is recharacterized as other than a true sale or such contribution is recharacterized as other than a true contribution, or such sale and assignment or contribution, as applicable, will for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable as such, as determined in a judicial, administrative or other proceeding (any of the foregoing being a “Recharacterization”), Contributor does hereby grant to Company a continuing security interest (which shall be of first priority) in all of Contributor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Assets, whether now or hereafter existing, and any and all “proceeds” thereof (as such term is defined in the UCC), in each case, for the benefit of Company as security for the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the Purchase Price (plus a market rate of return thereon) together with the performance when due of all of Company’s obligations now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which security interest will, upon the filing of a duly prepared financing statement in the appropriate filing office, be perfected and prior to all other Liens on the rights of Contributor under the License Agreement to the extent of the Transferred Assets. In the event of a Recharacterization, Company will have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor after default under the UCC and other Applicable Law, which rights and remedies will be cumulative. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement in respect of such security interest.
(c)Contributor and Company intend that their operations and business would not be substantively consolidated in the event of an Insolvency Event with respect to Contributor and that the separate existence of Contributor and Company would not be disregarded in the event of an Insolvency Event with respect to Contributor. Company and Contributor acknowledge that the Organizational Documents of Company contains provisions intended to maintain the separate existence and identity of Company and the parties agree that they will duly observe such provisions and Applicable Law in support of such separate existence and identity.

Company and Lender shall have the right, from time to time, not more than once per Calendar Quarter, during normal business hours and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to Contributor (provided that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Contributor Event of Default, Company and Lender shall have the right, as often, at such times and with such prior notice, as Lender determines in its reasonable discretion), to visit the offices and properties of Contributor where books and records relating or pertaining to the Collateral and the Licensed Product are kept and maintained (or, at Lender’s option, to conduct a meeting by telecommunications), to discuss, with officers of Contributor, the business, operations, properties and financial and other condition of Contributor, the Collateral and the Licensed Product and any topics related thereto, to verify compliance with this Agreement and the Loan Agreement, including with respect to the receipt, calculation and application of the Collection Amount, and, upon physical visits, to inspect and make extracts from and copies of the books and records of Company and Contributor relating or pertaining to the Collateral and the Licensed Product.

(n)New Arrangement. If Company is obligated to take any actions requested by Lender or otherwise cooperate with Lender with respect to the identification, negotiation, and/or execution and delivery of a New Arrangement pursuant to Section 8.17 of the Loan Agreement, Contributor shall reasonably cooperate with Lender, at Lender’s direction, in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of any New Arrangement, shall not execute and deliver any agreement effecting a New Arrangement unless requested to do so by Lender (and shall do so if requested to do so by Lender). To the extent any such arrangements are executed and entered into by Contributor on behalf of Company, Contributor shall forthwith Contribute all of its right, title and interest therein to Company, subject to Company’s assumption of the Assumed Obligations in respect thereof.
(o)Certain Company Covenants and Organizational Documents. Contributor shall, so long as it is the sole shareholder of Company and prior to the Loan Agreement Termination Date, cause Company to be managed and operated in a manner consistent with the negative covenants contained in Section 9.01 of the Loan Agreement and the Organizational Documents of Company.
(p)Capital Contributions. So long as any Obligations are outstanding under the Loan Agreement, Contributor will limit capital contributions to Company to no more than one (1) in any two (2) quarter period, other than a capital contribution effected to facilitate Company’s payment of all amounts due upon a prepayment under Article III of the Loan Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not create an obligation to effect capital contributions, which shall be in Contributor’s sole discretion, and provided further that the following shall not be included in such limits and shall be permitted without restriction: (i) capital contributions effected pursuant to Section 2.01(b) or Section 5.01(d) hereof, (ii) capital contributions to pay any Obligations in full and (iii) capital contributions effected pursuant to the Revenue Interest Purchase Agreement.

(a)Financial Statements and Information. For each quarter ending after the Effective Date, Company shall, promptly following receipt thereof under Section 8.5 of the License Agreement, deliver or cause to be delivered (or otherwise make available) to Contributor a true copy of the reports contemplated thereunder for such quarter. In addition, promptly following receipt thereof, Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered (or otherwise make available) to Contributor the plans deliverable by Licensee pursuant to Section 4.2 of the License Agreement, the results of any audit conducted pursuant to Section 8.9 of the License Agreement and any other notices, consents, correspondence, approvals, reports, requests, waivers, elections and other communications delivered by Licensee to Company, or by Company to Licensee, pursuant to or in connection with the License Agreement. Contributor shall conduct on behalf of Company the exercise by Company of the audit rights of Company under Section 8.9 of the License Agreement (subject to all restrictions and limitations thereon contained in the License Agreement and the Loan Agreement), provided that Company will not independently exercise (nor waive) such rights and Company will cooperate at its own expense with Contributor in such exercise, and Contributor acknowledges the rights of Lender in respect of Section 8.9 of the License Agreement and will comply with the provisions of the Loan Agreement regarding such

14


rights.
(b)No Merger, Consolidation or Reorganization of Company. Company shall not merge or consolidate with any other entity and shall not enter into any other transaction that results in a reorganization of Company.
(c)Limitations on Additional Indebtedness of Company. Company shall not incur any indebtedness other than as contemplated in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents.
(d)Compliance with Law. Company shall comply, in all material respects, with all acts, rules, regulations, orders, decrees and directions of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Transferred Assets or any part thereof; provided, however, that Company may contest any act, regulation, order, decree or direction of any Governmental Authority in any reasonable manner which shall not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(e)Excluded Assets. If any amount is paid to Company under the License Agreement on account of the Excluded Assets on or after the Closing Date, Company shall hold such amount in trust for Contributor, shall segregate such amount from other funds of Company, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by Company, turn over such amount to Contributor in the exact form received by Company (duly indorsed by Company to Contributor, if required), for deposit by Contributor.
Section 4.03Consequences of Contributor Event of Default. If a Contributor Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in addition to any other action that Lender may be entitled to take in connection with a Contributor Event of Default, the parties acknowledge that damages may be difficult to establish and accordingly Lender, at any time prior to the Loan Agreement Termination Date, shall be entitled to take such legal action and exercise such legal or equitable remedies, including seeking injunctive or other equitable relief without being required to prove actual damages or post any bond, as Lender may determine in its sole discretion in order to correct or prevent the continuation of such Contributor Event of Default.
Article V

SERVICING
Section 5.01Appointment of Contributor. Company shall maintain a servicer (the “Servicer”) to perform certain servicing, management and administrative functions on behalf of Company with respect to the Transferred Assets.
(a)Company hereby appoints Contributor as the initial Servicer hereunder, and Contributor hereby accepts such appointment hereunder, to perform the duties described in or by reference in this Article V.
(b)Company hereby grants Contributor, in connection with and for so long as Contributor remains as the Servicer hereunder, a co-exclusive (with Company), royalty-free license, in the Territory under the Transferred Assets solely to perform the duties of Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, and such Contributor co-exclusive rights are not sublicenseable or

15


assignable in any circumstances. For clarity, the license granted pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall terminate effective upon the termination of Contributor as Servicer for any reason.
(c)In consideration for its performing such duties hereunder, Contributor, as initial Servicer, shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee, if any, from Company. The Servicing Fee, if any, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and shall be paid in accordance with Section 4.04(a) of the Loan Agreement. Any unpaid portions of the Servicing Fee shall bear interest at a rate agreed upon by the Contributor and Company, acting reasonably and in good faith. In performing such duties hereunder, Contributor shall have full power and authority to do or cause to be done, on behalf of and in the name of Company and with Company’s prior written consent, any and all things in connection with such servicing, management and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms hereof (including Section 5.03), the License Agreement, any New Arrangement, and the Loan Agreement. Contributor agrees that it shall service, manage, administer, and perform on behalf of Company under the License Agreement and enforce the rights of Company thereunder in good faith, with reasonable care, in accordance with Applicable Law, in compliance with Company’s obligations under the Loan Documents, using substantially the same degree of diligence and skill that it uses to service and perform agreements such as the License Agreement and any other license arrangements, and generally to Commercialize and Exploit pharmaceutical products for its own account (such standards and requirements of performance, the “Servicing Standard”). Contributor, as Servicer on behalf of Company, shall maintain any licenses or authorizations necessary to service the Transferred Assets. Contributor shall administer and perform under the License Agreement and manage and maintain the Intellectual Property in such a manner as will, in its reasonable judgment and at all times in accordance with the Servicing Standard, preserve and protect the Royalty Interest.
(d)Without limiting the foregoing, Contributor as Servicer shall administer and perform on behalf of Company its obligations under Section 8.17 of the Loan Agreement, and to the extent any such arrangements are executed and entered into by Contributor, Contributor shall forthwith Contribute all of its right, title and interest therein, other than any applicable excluded assets or rights that constitute or replace the Excluded Assets, to Company, subject to Company’s assumption of the Assumed Obligations in respect thereof.
Section 5.02Certain Contributor Actions. So long as it is the Servicer, Contributor shall take such actions on behalf of Company, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, as are necessary to cause Company to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under the License Agreement and any other arrangements for the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product.
Section 5.03Compliance with the Loan Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Contributor’s servicing obligations hereunder shall at all times be subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. Contributor and Company agree that Contributor shall take no action with respect to the License Agreement, any New Arrangement or any other arrangement relating to the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product on behalf of Company, nor instruct Company to take any such action, that is inconsistent with the terms of the Loan Agreement, the obligations of Company thereunder or the rights of Lender thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, Contributor shall not, and shall not instruct Company to, take any action

16


without the consent of Lender where such consent is required pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and Contributor shall not agree to, or cause or permit any amendment, waiver, termination or modification of the License Agreement or any Material Contract except as permitted to be effected by Company under the Loan Agreement. Contributor and Company agree that (i) following the occurrence of any Contributor Event of Default or (ii) with respect to any instance in which Lender has provided a direction to Company under the Loan Agreement that Contributor is to effectuate under this Agreement and Company fails to follow such direction promptly, Contributor shall service, administer, manage and perform under the License Agreement, any New Arrangement or any other arrangement relating to the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product.

Section 5.04Services as Servicer. In addition to (and not in limitation of) the provision of Section 5.01, Contributor shall perform the following services on behalf of Company:
(a)review all documents, notices and other communications under the License Agreement, any New Arrangement and any other arrangement relating to the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product and provide such copies to Lender as are required under the Loan Agreement, together with any responses as Company is required to provide in respect thereof;
(b)prepare, forward and process any statements or billing materials that Company is required to provide to the Licensee or any other Person in order to receive payment of amounts due to Company under the License Agreement, any New Arrangement and any other arrangement relating to the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product;
(c)monitor the performance of the Licensee under the License Agreement, any New Arrangement and any other arrangement relating to the Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product, exercise the rights and perform the obligations of Company and take such other actions as may be necessary to enforce the rights of Company thereunder (including any exercise of audit rights, the right to participate in and act as the chairman of the JDC and/or JMCC) and collect amounts due to Company thereunder, on behalf of Company, and procure and supervise the services of any third parties necessary or appropriate in connection with the monitoring, enforcement, collection and remittance of the proceeds of the Transferred Assets;
(d)maintain each of the Blocked Accounts in accordance with Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement and the related Blocked Account Control Agreement, and maintain and enforce the instructions to the Licensee or subsequent licensee to pay amounts due to Company under the License Agreement or any New Arrangement or to any other Person to pay amounts due to Company relating to Commercialization and Exploitation of the Licensed Product into the Collection Account;
(e)cause Company to maintain its organizational existence by filing all returns required in its jurisdiction of organization, and providing for its general administrative needs and overhead relating to the Transferred Assets, subject to Section 9.01 of the Loan Agreement and its Organizational Documents;

17


(f)identify and forward as required under the Loan Agreement any payments that are to be made to a Blocked Account but when made are made to Company, Contributor or any misdirected account, and in consultation with Lender, effect the transfer thereof as required under the Loan Agreement;
(g)make on behalf of Company any security filings or other actions required to perfect or ensure the continued perfection of Company’s rights in the Transferred Assets and Lender’s rights in Collateral; and
(h)with respect to Intellectual Property:
(i)prepare, execute, deliver and file any and all agreements, documents or instruments which are necessary to (A) prosecute and maintain the material Intellectual Property (including Patents included therein) in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement to the extent that Contributor has the right to prosecute and maintain such material Intellectual Property; and (B) defend or assert such material Intellectual Property against infringement or interference by any other Persons, and against any claims of invalidity or unenforceability, in the Territory, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement (including by bringing any legal action for infringement or defending any counterclaim of invalidity or action of a Third Party for declaratory judgment of non-infringement or non-interference) to the extent that Contributor has the right to do so. Contributor shall keep Company and its assigns informed of all of such actions and Company and its assigns (including Lender) shall have the opportunity to participate and meaningfully consult with Contributor with respect to the direction thereof and Contributor shall consider all of Company’s or such assign’s comments in good faith. For clarity, this subsection (i) shall apply only to the extent of Contributor’s or any Affiliate’s rights (including rights to review and comment) to prosecute, maintain and/or enforce the Intellectual Property.
(ii)not permit or suffer any of its Affiliates to, consent to any judgment or settlement in any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 9.4 of the License Agreement, without the prior written consent of Company and its assigns (including Lender), which consent shall not be withheld, delayed or conditioned by Company or such assign if doing so would result in the breach of the obligation to not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent under Section 9.4 of the License Agreement.
(iii)use commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute all pending Patent applications within the Intellectual Property for which Contributor or its Affiliates has rights to prosecute such Patents consistent with standards in the pharmaceutical industry (as applicable) for similarly situated entities.
(iv)take commercially reasonable measures to protect the proprietary nature of material Intellectual Property and maintain in confidence all trade secrets and confidential information compromising a part thereof;

18

(vi)take reasonable physical and electronic security measures to prevent disclosure of any item that contains or embodies material, non-public Intellectual Property;
(vii)use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each individual associated with the filing and prosecution of the Patents material to the conduct of the business of Contributor to comply in all material respects with all applicable duties of candor and good faith in dealing with any Patent Office, including any duty to disclose to any Patent Office all information known by such individual to be material to patentability of each such Patent, in those jurisdictions where such duties exist, in each case to the extent that Contributor has the right to file and prosecute such Patents, including to the extent permissible under the License Agreement; and
(viii)furnish Company and its assigns (including Lender) from time to time upon Company’s or such assign’s reasonable written request therefor reasonably detailed statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property as Company or such assign may reasonably request.

In performing as Servicer, Contributor shall not instruct the Licensee or any other Person to pay amounts in respect of the Transferred Assets to any account other than the respective Blocked Account required under the Loan Agreement or cause any such payments to be paid to any account other than such Blocked Account.

Section 5.05Replacement Servicer. Contributor may be terminated as Servicer hereunder and replaced with a new Servicer by Company (or by Lender on behalf of Company in the event that Company shall fail to replace the Servicer within five (5) Business Days after a Servicer Termination Event, or in the event that a Contributor Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) following the occurrence of any of the following events (each, a “Servicer Termination Event”):
(a)Contributor fails to perform or observe any covenant or agreement contained in this Article V and, solely if the consequences of the failure to perform or observe such covenant or agreement can be cured, (i) in the case of any covenant or agreement contained in Sections 5.01(d), 5.04(d), (e), (f) or (g) or Section 5.04(h)(i), (ii) or (iii), such failure continues for a period of fifteen (15) Business Days without such cure after the earlier of (x) the date Contributor becomes aware of such failure and (y) the date Company, or Lender on behalf of Company, provides Notice of such failure to Contributor, and (ii) in the case of any other covenant or agreement contained in Article V (other than those referred to in preceding subclause (i)), such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) Business Days without such cure after the earlier of (x) the date Contributor becomes aware of such failure and (y) the date Company, or Lender on behalf of Company, provides Notice of such failure to Contributor;

19


(b)an Insolvency Event with respect to Contributor; or
(c)a Contributor Event of Default shall occur and be continuing.

Termination of Contributor as Servicer hereunder shall be without prejudice to any rights of Company or Lender that may have accrued through such date. In the event that Contributor is terminated as Servicer, (i) a replacement Servicer shall be appointed by Company in consultation with, and with the prior written consent of, Lender, or by Lender on behalf of Company as provided in the first sentence of this Section 5.05 and (ii) Contributor shall cooperate reasonably with Company and Lender and any replacement Servicer designated by Company or Lender, to transfer any information and materials to such replacement Servicer or undertake any other reasonable actions to ensure an effective transition of services required in the servicing of the Transferred Assets to the successor Servicer.

Section 6.02Effect of Termination.

Section 6.03Survival. Notwithstanding Section 6.01 hereof, the obligations of Contributor contained in Sections 4.01(f) and 4.01(i), Article VII, Section 8.13, Section 8.14 and this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the occurrence of the Loan Agreement Termination Date.
Article VII

INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS
Section 7.01Indemnification.
(a)Contributor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Company, Lender and their respective officers, directors, members, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Party in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person whether or not any such Indemnified Party shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and whether or not such Indemnified Party is required by Applicable Law to be involved therein, and any fees or expenses actually incurred by Indemnified Parties in enforcing the

20


indemnity provided herein), whether direct, indirect or consequential, whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations), on common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, which may be incurred or suffered by such Indemnified Party (except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party) awarded against, or incurred or suffered by, such Indemnified Party, whether or not involving a third party claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, arising out of (i) the failure of any representation, warranty or certification of Contributor in the Loan Documents or any certificate given by Contributor pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, to be true when made; (ii) a breach of any covenant by Contributor set forth in, or failure by Contributor to perform its duties under or otherwise comply with, the Loan Documents (whether or not a Contributor Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event), or Contributor’s engaging in intentional misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of such duties; or (iii) other than as permitted under Section 4.01(g), the transfer by Contributor of any interest in the Transferred Assets to any Person other than Company, or any attempt by any Person to void the transfer of the Transferred Assets to Company. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the above indemnities shall not be interpreted to provide indemnification for any damages, losses or costs that have the effect of recourse for non-payment or insufficient payment under the Transferred Assets and factors affecting the performance of the Transferred Assets and payments generated thereby that are not specifically represented, warranted or agreed to in the Loan Documents which may include but are not limited to product obsolescence, competition, changes in government healthcare policies or other healthcare provider reimbursement, patent invalidity (other than to the extent that Contributor had Knowledge of such patent invalidity as of the date of any related representation or warranty), and withholding taxes related to the Transferred Assets. This Section 7.01(a) shall not apply to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. The provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to, and be enforceable by, an injured party and shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or Section 8.14 hereof, Company’s rights under this Section 7.01 shall be assignable by Company to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement.
(b)If any claim, demand, action or proceeding (including any investigation by any Governmental Authority) shall be brought or alleged against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity is to be sought pursuant to this Section 7.01, the Indemnified Party shall, promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any such claim, demand, action or proceeding, notify Contributor in writing of the commencement of such claim, demand, action or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any; provided, that the omission to so notify Contributor will not relieve Contributor from any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party under this Section unless, and only to the extent that, Contributor is actually materially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party and it notifies Contributor of the commencement thereof, Contributor will be entitled, at Contributor’s sole cost and expense, to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to Contributor), and, after notice from Contributor to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, Contributor will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the

21


defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (a) Contributor and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (b) Contributor has assumed the defense of such proceeding and has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel or (c) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both Contributor and the Indemnified Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between them. It is agreed that Contributor shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to local counsel where necessary) for all such Indemnified Parties. Contributor shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but, if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Contributor agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Indemnified Liabilities by reason of such settlement or judgment. Contributor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement, compromise or discharge of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement, compromise or discharge, as the case may be, (i) includes an unconditional written release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim or proceeding, (ii) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party and (iii) does not impose any continuing material obligation or restrictions on any Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Indemnified Liabilities shall not include any consequential, punitive, special or incidental damages.
