PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Delaware

Corporations

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, allows a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide for this limitation of liability.

Section 145 of the DGCL, or Section 145, provides, among other things, that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, 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 such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who were or are a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests, provided further that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him or her under Section 145.

The certificate of incorporation of The Carlyle Group Inc. (the “Corporation”) provides that the Corporation must indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, except in cases of bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct, and must also pay expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon delivery of an undertaking, by or on behalf of an indemnified person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under the certificate of incorporation or otherwise.

The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Corporation’s amended and restated

 

II-1


certificate of incorporation, the Corporation’s amended and restated by-laws, agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Corporation maintains standard policies of insurance that provide coverage (i) to its directors and officers against losses arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act and (ii) to itself with respect to indemnification payments that it may make to such directors and officers.

The Corporation is party to indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers. These agreements require the Corporation to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to the Corporation, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors or executive officers, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

In any underwriting agreement the Corporation enters into in connection with the sale of the securities registered hereby, the underwriters may agree to indemnify, or contribute to, under certain conditions, the Corporation, its directors, its officers and persons who control the Corporation within the meaning of the Securities Act against certain liabilities.

Limited Liability Companies

Section 18-108 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act authorizes a limited liability company to indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever, subject to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited liability company agreement.

The amended and restated limited liability company agreements of Carlyle Holdings II L.L.C. (“Holdings II”) and CG Subsidiary Holdings L.L.C. (“CG Subsidiary”) respectively provide that Holdings II and CG Subsidiary, as applicable, must indemnify its members and officers to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law for any loss, damage or claim incurred, except in cases of bad faith or outside the scope of authority, and must also pay expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of an indemnified person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under the applicable limited liability company agreement. Any indemnity shall be provided out of, and to the extent of, the applicable Holdings II or CG Subsidiary assets only.

In any underwriting agreement Holdings II, CG Subsidiary, Carlyle Holdings II Finance L.L.C., Carlyle Holdings Finance L.L.C., Carlyle Finance L.L.C. or Carlyle Finance Subsidiary L.L.C. (each, a “Carlyle Entity”) enters into in connection with the sale of the securities registered hereby, the underwriters may agree to indemnify, or contribute to, under certain conditions, a Carlyle Entity, its directors, its officers and persons who control the applicable Carlyle Entity within the meaning of the Securities Act against certain liabilities.

Limited Partnerships

Section 17-108 of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act provides that a limited partnership may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any partner or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever, subject to such standards and restrictions set forth in the partnership agreement.

In any underwriting agreement Carlyle Holdings I L.P. (“Holdings I”) enters into in connection with the sale of the securities registered hereby, the underwriters may agree to indemnify, or contribute to, under certain conditions, Holdings I, its directors, its officers and persons who control Holdings I within the meaning of the Securities Act against certain liabilities.


Québec

Limited Partnerships

The Civil Code of Québec provides that a partner of a Québec limited partnership is entitled to recover the amount of the disbursements it has made on behalf of the partnership and to be indemnified for the obligations it has contracted or the losses it has suffered in acting for the partnership if it was in good faith. No provision of the Civil Code of Québec precludes a partnership from reimbursing its general partner for costs, charges and expenses actually incurred in the performance of its duties thereunder, including costs, charges expenses directly incurred for the benefit of Carlyle Holdings III L.P. (“Holdings III”) and costs incurred by the general partner in compensating its directors, officers and employees. Such a provision would apply to costs of indemnification of directors, officers and employees incurred by Carlyle Holdings III GP L.P., the sole member of Carlyle Holdings III GP Sub L.L.C., the general partner of Holdings III, with respect to the conduct of the business and activities of Holdings III.

In any underwriting agreement Holdings III enters into in connection with the sale of the securities registered hereby, the underwriters may agree to indemnify, or contribute to, under certain conditions, Holdings III, its directors, its officers and persons who control Holdings III within the meaning of the Securities Act against certain liabilities.
