in writing that it shall assume and control the full defense against such Third-Party Claim (respecting the provisions of item (g) below in the case of a Divided Claim) at its own expense (including making any judicial deposits and presenting any guarantees necessary) and through the attorneys of its choice, provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its sole cost and expense, accompany the defense against such Third-Party Claim, and it is agreed that the Indemnifying Party shall be solely responsible for the development and result of such defense; or

(d)If, upon receiving the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party fails to act within the time period and for the purposes of the provisions of Section 6.5.1(c), the Indemnified Party shall be responsible for submitting the appropriate defense, in which case all the respective costs (court costs, expenses, deposits, and guarantees, expert fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees contracted) shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party, via direct payment to those entitled thereto by law or through prompt reimbursement to the Indemnified Party;

If the Indemnifying Party does not obtain the clearance certificates or non-clearance certificates with the effects of clearance in question within forty-five (45) days counted from the receipt of notice

from the Indemnified Party accordingly, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to take all appropriate actions pursuant to the applicable Laws in order to obtain the certificate in question, and any and all costs related to these actions, as set forth above, shall be considered a Loss that may be indemnified by the Indemnifying Party. The period of forty-five (45) days provided for in this Section 6.5.4 shall be reduced to fifteen (15) days in the event of a clearance certificate for federal taxes or a non-clearance certificate with the effect of clearance for federal tax purposes necessary to prove the good standing of the Institute vis-à-vis FIES and/or ProUni.

6.5.5.Registration of Debtors and Protests. Similarly, if the Indemnified Party is enrolled with any protection of credit bodies, bad payer registries (a credit bureau such as SERASA, etc.), or have debt claims protested against it by reason of Third-Party Claims which are indemnifiable under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall use its best efforts, including but not limited to, the presentation of any guarantees, deposits, or assets permitted by the applicable Laws in order to remove the Indemnified Party from such registers. If the Indemnifying Party does not bring the situation in question into good standing within forty-five (45) days counted from the receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party accordingly, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to take all appropriate actions pursuant to the applicable Laws in order to bring the situation in question into good standing, and any and all costs related to these actions shall be considered a Loss that may be indemnified by the Indemnifying Party. The period of forty-five (45) days provided for in this Section 6.5.5 shall be reduced to fifteen (15) days in the event it is necessary to prove the good standing of the Institute vis-à-vis FIES and/or ProUni.

6.5.6.Direct Claims. With respect to any Claim indemnifiable under the terms of this Section 6 other than a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall send to the Indemnifying Party a notice of such Direct Claim (a “Direct Claim Notice”). The Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) Business Days as of the receipt of such Direct Claim Notice to review and respond to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not send such response within the period of ten (10) Business Days mentioned above, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have assumed responsibility for the payment of said Direct Claim within five (5) days after said period of ten (10) Business Days. In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party of such Direct Claim (a “Claim Rejection Notice”), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall in good faith negotiate a solution to such dispute and, if such dispute is not amicably resolved within ten (10) days as of the receipt of the Claim Rejection Notice, then this dispute shall be submitted to dispute resolution under the terms of Section 10.3 below. However, if such a dispute is resolved within ten (10) days as of receipt of a Claim Rejection Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall make the payment of the Direct Claim directly to the Indemnified Party, up to within five (5) days counted from the date of resolution of the Direct Dispute.

6.6.Loss Reduction. Any Losses subject to indemnification to any Indemnified Party under the terms of this Section 6 shall, prior to the effective payment of any indemnification, as applicable, be reduced by any and all amounts: (i) effectively received by way of any indemnification related to any insurance policy of which any Indemnified Party is a beneficiary; (ii) effectively recovered by the Indemnified Party from third parties in relation to such Loss; and (iii) in the case of Losses suffered by the Institute and/or CIS that correspond to a real and effective reduction of the obligation to collect income tax (income tax credit), resulting from a real and effective deduction with effect on cash, for the purposes of income tax, from such Loss. For the purposes of item (iii) above, the Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party, within [**] days after the real and actual occurrence of a deduction, access to the information of the Institute that allows the Indemnifying Party to verify the actual and effective deductibility with effect on cash of any reduction of an obligation to collect income tax.

6.7.Net Indemnification. Any and all amounts due as a result of the obligation to indemnify Losses suffered by any Party, as set forth in this Agreement, shall have a neutral Tax effect for the Indemnified Party, which shall be indemnified in the net amount of its Loss, without a tax prejudice or benefit with such payment. In this sense, the amount of the indemnifiable Loss shall be increased for any taxes levied on the payment, return, or refund from the Loss in question, whether retained by the Indemnifying Party or due from the Party receiving the respective payment, return, or refund (gross-up). Likewise, if the Loss incurred by the Indemnified Party allows for a benefit from the Tax point of view (e.g., if it is deductible from the calculation basis of income tax, social contributions, or in any other manner), the corresponding Tax benefit shall be deducted from the amount of the indemnifiable Loss.

6.8.Payment of Indemnification. The amount related to Losses indemnifiable under the terms of this Section 6 shall only be payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party upon a final and unappealable judicial judgment or arbitral award, against which no type of appeal or recourse is possible (except for a motion to set aside), through agreement between the Parties, or, further, through a judicial or extrajudicial settlement which has been duly ratified or executed (a “Final Decision”). After a Final Decision related to an Indemnifiable Loss under the terms of

this Section 6, the Indemnifying Party shall have [**] days to make full payment of such Loss, always subject to the terms, procedures, and limitations set forth in this Section 6 (including, but not limited to, the limitations of Section 6.4).
