If any such action or proceeding is determined in favor of such organization or any such member, the court may award, in addition to other costs authorized by law, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements out of any moneys awarded or funds or assets recovered in such action or proceeding.3. Any employer, employer organization, labor relations consultant, or other person who knowingly participated in or induced any conduct or act which violates any of the obligations of an officer or agent of a labor organization provided in sections seven hundred twenty-two and seven hundred twenty-three, shall be subject to the same liabilities and judicial remedies as such officer or agent, including but not limited to joint and several liability with such officer or agent for any losses suffered by the labor organization, or any member thereof, as a result of any such violation of obligation, and joint and several liability to pay over to such labor organization or such member any gains or profits made as a result of such knowing participation or inducement.4.
