(a) Reimbursement.--A limited liability company shall reimburse a member of a member-managed company or manager of a manager-managed company for any payment made by the member or in the course of the member's or manager's activities on behalf of the company, if the member or manager complied with the applicable provisions of sections 8847 (relating to management of limited liability company), 8849.1 (relating to standards of conduct for members) and 8849.2 (relating to standards of conduct for managers) in making the payment.

(b) Indemnification.--A limited liability company shall indemnify and hold harmless a person with respect to any claim or demand against the person and any debt, obligation or other liability incurred by the person by reason of the person's former or present capacity as a member or manager, if the claim, demand, debt, obligation or other liability does not arise from the person's breach of section 8845 (relating to limitations on distributions), 8847, 8849.1 or 8849.2.

(c) Advancement.--In the ordinary course of its activities and affairs, a limited liability company may advance expenses, including attorney fees and costs, incurred by a person in connection with a claim or demand against the person by reason of the person's former or present capacity as a member or manager, if the person promises to repay the company if the person ultimately is determined not to be entitled to be indemnified.

(d) Insurance.--A limited liability company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a member or manager of the company against liability asserted against or incurred by the member or manager in that capacity or arising from that status even if, under subsection (g), the operating agreement could not provide indemnification against the liability or eliminate or limit the person's liability to the company for the conduct giving rise to the liability.

(e) Nonexclusivity.--The rights provided by subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking reimbursement, indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance may be entitled under the operating agreement, vote of members or disinterested managers, contract or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding that position. Sections 8849.1(f) and 8849.2(e) shall be applicable to a vote, contract or other action under this subsection. A limited liability company may create a fund of any nature, which may, but need not be, under the control of a trustee, or otherwise secure or insure in any manner its indemnification obligations, whether arising under this section or otherwise.

(f) Grounds.--Indemnification under subsection (e) may be granted for any action taken and may be made whether or not the limited liability company would have the power to indemnify the person under any other provision of law except as provided in this section and whether or not the indemnified liability arises or arose from any threatened, pending or completed action by or in the right of the company. Indemnification under subsection (e) is declared to be consistent with the public policy of the Commonwealth.

(g) Limitation.--Indemnification under this section shall not be made in any case where the act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to constitute recklessness, willful misconduct or a knowing violation of law.
