INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT This Indemnification Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of this _____ day of _____, 1996, by and between FOX KIDS WORLDWIDE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and __________________ ("Indemnitee"). RECITALS A. The Company and Indemnitee recognize the increasing difficulty in obtaining liability insurance for directors, officers, employees and agents, the significant increases in the cost of such insurance and the general reductions in the coverage of such insurance. B. The Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general, subjecting directors, officers, employees, and agents to expensive litigation risk at the same time that the availability and coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited. C. Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee and other directors, officers, employers and agents of the Company may not be willing to continue to serve as directors, officers, employees and agents without additional protection. D. The Company desires to attract and retain the services of highly qualified individuals, such as Indemnitee, to serve as directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company and to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents so as to provide them with the maximum protection permitted by law. AGREEMENT The Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows: 1. AGREEMENT TO SERVE. Indemnitee agrees to serve and/or continue to serve the Company, at the Company's will (or under separate written agreement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, if such agreement exists), in the capacity Indemnitee currently serves the Company, as long as Indemnitee is duly appointed or elected and qualified in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bylaws of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or (subject to any employment agreement between Indemnitee and the Company) until such time as Indemnitee tenders a written resignation or is removed in accordance with the Bylaws; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement is intended -------- ------- to or shall create any right (express or implied) to continued employment by Indemnitee.
EX-10.53rd Page of 10TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 3rd
2. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) THIRD PARTY PROCEEDINGS. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while a director, officer, employee or agent, or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, disbursements and retainers, accounting and witness fees, travel and deposition costs, and expenses of investigations), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a ---- ---------- presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful. (b) PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while a director, officer, employee or agent, or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, disbursements and retainers, accounting and witness fees, travel and deposition costs, and expenses of investigations) and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement, in each case to the extent actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit (i) if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company in the performance of Indemnitee's duty to the Company and its stockholders unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit is or was pending shall determine upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly 2
EX-10.54th Page of 10TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 4th
and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses and then only to the extent that the court shall determine; (ii) if Indemnitee is a director, to the extent that the action or contemplated action seeks monetary damages for breach of Indemnitee's duties to the Company and its stockholders in circumstances under which Indemnitee's personal liability therefor has been eliminated as a result of the provisions of Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or (iii) if Indemnitee is an agent other than a director, to the extent that, were Indemnitee a director, Indemnitee would have the right to be indemnified under Section 2(b)(ii), above; and in the case of Section 2(b)(ii) and 2(b)(iii) above, indemnification shall include, to the extent not prohibited by law, indemnification against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. (c) MANDATORY PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. To the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2 or the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, disbursements and retainers, accounting and witness fees, travel and deposition costs, and expenses of investigations) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection therewith. (d) INDEMNIFICATION FOR SERVING AS A WITNESS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee's status as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, a witness in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection therewith. 3. EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE. (a) ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company shall advance all reasonable expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referenced in Section 2(a) or (b) hereof (but not amounts actually paid in settlement of any such action, suit or proceeding). Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee within 45 days following delivery of a written request therefor by Indemnitee to the Company. (b) NOTICE/COOPERATION BY INDEMNITEE. Indemnitee shall, as a condition precedent to his right to be indemnified under this Agreement, give the Company notice, in accordance with Section 14 hereof, of any claim made against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee's power. 3
EX-10.55th Page of 10TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th
(c) PROCEDURE. Any indemnification and advances provided for in Section 2 and this Section 3 shall be made no later than 45 days after receipt of the written request of Indemnitee. If a claim under this Agreement, under any statute, or under any provision of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws providing for indemnification, is not paid in full by the Company within 45 days after a written request for payment thereof has first been received by the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not, at any time thereafter bring an action against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, subject to Section 13 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid for the expenses (including attorneys' fees) of bringing such action. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall be entitled to receive interim payments of expenses pursuant to Section 3(a) unless and until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order or judgment from which no further right of appeal exists. It is the intention of the parties that if the Company contests Indemnitee's right to indemnification, the question of Indemnitee's right to indemnification shall be for the court to decide, and neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct required by applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable standard of conduct. (d) NOTICE TO INSURERS. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. (e) SELECTION OF COUNSEL. In the event the Company shall be obligated under Section 3(a) hereof to pay the expenses of any proceedings against Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding, with counsel approved by Indemnitee, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding at Indemnitee's expense; and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and 4
EX-10.56th Page of 10TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 6th
Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense, or (C) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. 4. ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS; NONEXCLUSIVITY. (a) SCOPE. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the Company's Bylaws or by statute. In the event of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a Delaware corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or its officers, employees or agents, such change, to the extent not otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to this Agreement, shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties' rights and obligations hereunder. (b) NONEXCLUSIVITY. The indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, its Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors, the Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity even though he may have ceased to serve in such capacity at the time of any action, suit or other covered proceeding. 5. PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the expenses, judgments, fines or penalties actually or reasonably incurred by him in the investigation, defense, appeal or settlement of any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses, judgments, fines or penalties to which Indemnitee is entitled. 6. MUTUAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. Both the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that in certain instances, Federal law or applicable public policy may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors, officers, employees and/or agents under this Agreement or other wise. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company has undertaken or may be required in the future to undertake with the Securities and Exchange Commission to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the Company's right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee. 7. LIABILITY INSURANCE. The Company shall, from time to time, make the good faith determination whether or not it is practicable for the Company to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies providing the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts, or to ensure 5
EX-10.57th Page of 10TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 7th
the Company's performance of its indemnification obligations under this agreement. Among other considerations, the Company will weigh the costs of obtaining such insurance coverage against the protection afforded by such coverage. In all such policies of liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's directors, if Indemnitee is a director; or of the Company's officers, if Indemnitee is not an director of the Company but is an officer; or of the Company's employees, if Indemnitee is not a director or officer but is an employee; or of the Company's agents, if Indemnitee is not a director, officer or employee but is an agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain such insurance if the Company determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, if the premium costs for such insurance are dispro portionate to the amount of coverage provided, if the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit, or if Indemnitee is covered by similar insurance maintained by a subsidiary or parent of the Company. 8. SEVERABILITY. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company's inability, pursuant to court order, to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable as provided in this Section 8. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall never theless indemnify Indemnitee to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been invalidated, and the balance of this Agreement not so invalidated shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 9. EXCEPTIONS. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement : (a) CLAIMS INITIATED BY INDEMNITEE. To indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee and not by way defense, except with respect to proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under this Agreement or any other statute or otherwise as required under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, but such indemnification or advancement of expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board of Directors has approved the initiation or bringing of such suit; (b) LACK OF GOOD FAITH. To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to any proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by the Indemnitee in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous; (c) INSURED CLAIMS. To indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, and 6

amounts paid in settlement) which have been paid directly to Indemnitee by an insurance carrier under a policy of officers' and directors' liability insurance or other policy of insurance maintained by the Company; (d) CLAIMS UNDER SECTION 16(B).

To indemnify Indemnitee in any manner which is contrary to public policy or which a court of competent jurisdiction has finally determined to be unlawful; (f) FAILURE TO SETTLE PROCEEDING. To indemnify Indemnitee for liabilities in excess of the total amount at which settlement reasonably could have been made, or for any cost and/or expenses incurred by Indemnitee following the time such settlement reasonably could have been effected, if Indemnitee shall have unreasonably delayed, refused or failed to enter into a settlement of any action, suit or proceeding (or investigation or appeal thereof) recommended in good faith, in writing, by the Company; or (g) BREACH OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT. To indemnify Indemnitee for any breach by Indemnitee of any employment agreement between Indemnitee and the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 10. CONSTRUCTION OF CERTAIN PHRASES. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, references to the "Company" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and/or agents, so that if Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as Indemnitee would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the Company" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee 7

reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interest of the Company" as referred to in this Agreement. 11. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original. 12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee's estate, heirs, legal representatives and assigns. 13. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event that any action is instituted by Indemnitee under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms hereof, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such action, unless as a part of such action, the court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee as a basis for such action were not made in good faith or were frivolous. In the event of an action instituted by or in the name of the Company under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by Indemnitee in defense of such action (including with respect to Indemnitee's counterclaims and cross-claims made in such action), unless as a part of such action the court determines that each of Indemnitee's material defenses to such action were made in bad faith or were frivolous. 14.

All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (i) if delivered by hand and receipted for by the party addressee, on the date of such receipt, or (ii) if mailed by domestic certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the third business day after the date postmarked.
