In the event that # an Indemnified Party becomes aware of the existence of any Indemnification Claim or # any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted, or any claim shall be asserted, by any Person not party to this Agreement in respect of an Indemnification Claim (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly cause written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”) to be delivered to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) which, in a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Fund, shall be delivered to the Representative and Schultz; provided, however, that so long as such notice is given within the applicable time period described in [Section 9.1], no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving any such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such delay. Each Claim Notice shall be in writing and # shall specify the basis for indemnification claimed by the Indemnified Party, # if such Claim Notice is being given with respect to a Third-Party Claim, shall describe in reasonable detail such Third-Party Claim and shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant pleadings, demands and other papers served on the Indemnified Party and # shall specify the amount of (or if not finally determined, a good faith estimate of, if reasonably practicable) the Losses being incurred by, or imposed upon, the Indemnified Party on account of the basis for the claim for indemnification.

In the event that any [[Organization A:Organization]] Indemnified Party or Indemnified Party elects to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder arising from a claim or demand made, or an Action or investigation instituted, by any Person not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement that may result in a Loss for which indemnification may be claimed under this Article XVII (a “Third Party Claim”), such party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, as promptly as practicable give written notice (a “Claims Notice”) to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”). Such Claims Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the facts constituting the basis for, and the amount of, the claim asserted. The failure by any Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations to the extent such failure or other actions taken by the Indemnified Party shall actually prejudice an Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that an Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation whatsoever to indemnify an Indemnified Party if a Claims Notice containing the information specified above is not received by the Indemnifying Party prior to the termination of the applicable periods described in [Section 16.05].

In the event that any party hereto shall claim that it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to the terms of this [Article IX], such party (the “Claiming Party”) shall promptly notify the party or parties against which the claim is made (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such claim (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after the Claiming Party receives notice of any action, Proceeding, demand, assessment, claim, loss, liability or damages, whether or not involving any claim of a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), that may reasonably be expected to result in a claim for indemnification by the Claiming Party against the Indemnifying Party. The Claim Notice shall specify the basis of such indemnification claim including the specifics regarding any breach of representation, warranty or covenant claimed by the Claiming Party and the Losses incurred by, or anticipated to be incurred by, the Claiming Party on account thereof. If such Losses are final and liquidated in amount, the Claim Notice shall so state and such amount shall be deemed the amount of the claim of the Claiming Party. If such Losses are not final and liquidated, the Claim Notice shall so state and, if reasonably possible, the Claiming Party shall make a good faith estimate of the indemnifiable Losses it expects to sustain and in such event a claim shall be deemed asserted against the Indemnifying Party on behalf of the Claiming Party, but no payment shall be made on account thereof until the amount of such claim is liquidated and the Losses are finally determined.

Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims in respect of a Party, its Affiliates, or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under this Article 11, but in no event shall the indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party shall furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.

Notice. The indemnified Party (“Indemnitee”) will promptly notify the indemnifying Party (“Indemnitor”) in writing of the assertion or the commencement of the relevant Third Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure or delay to notify shall not excuse any obligation of the Indemnitor, except to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby. Such notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of any Losses (to the extent that the nature and the amount of such Losses is known at such time). The Indemnitee shall furnish promptly to the Indemnitor copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.

In the event that any Indemnified Party elects to bring a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim for indemnity against any Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the facts constituting the basis for, and the amount of, the claim asserted. The failure by any Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation to the extent such failure or other action taken by the Indemnified Party shall actually prejudice the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that an Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation whatsoever to indemnify an Indemnified Party if the written notice described in this [Section 17.02(d)] is not received by the Indemnifying Party prior to the termination of the applicable periods described in [Section 16.05].

If an Indemnified Buyer Entity or an Indemnified Seller Entity (each, an “Indemnified Entity”) believes that a claim, demand or other circumstance exists that has given or may reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Article 8 (whether or not the amount of Indemnifiable Losses relating thereto is then quantifiable), such Indemnified Entity shall assert its claim for indemnification by giving written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Entity”) # if the event or occurrence giving rise to such claim for indemnification is, or relates to, a claim, suit, action or proceeding brought by a Person not a Party or affiliated with any such Party (a “Third Party”), within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of notice of such claim, suit, action or proceeding by such Indemnified Entity, or # if the event or occurrence giving rise to such claim for indemnification is not, or does not relate to, a claim, suit, action or proceeding brought by a Third Party, as promptly as practicable after the discovery by the Indemnified Entity of the circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnity; provided, that in each case in clauses (i) and (ii), that the failure to notify or delay in notifying the Indemnifying Entity, as the case may be, will not relieve the Indemnifying Entity of its obligations pursuant to this Article 8, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Entity is materially prejudiced as a result thereof. Each Claim Notice shall describe the claim and the basis of such claim in reasonable detail.

Notice of Third Party Claim. In order for a party (an “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification under this ‎ARTICLE VIII in respect of Losses arising out of or involving a claim or demand made by any Person other than Buyer or Seller against a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party must notify the party from whom indemnification is sought under this ‎ARTICLE VIII (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly in writing (including in such notice a brief description of the Third Party Claim, including damages sought or estimated, to the extent actually known or reasonably capable of estimation by the Indemnified Party); provided, however, that the failure to promptly provide such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided under this ‎ARTICLE VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

Notice. Each Party will notify the other Party in writing in the event it becomes aware of a claim for which indemnification may be sought hereunder. In the event that any Third Party asserts a claim or other proceeding (including any governmental investigation) with respect to any matter for which a Party (the “Indemnified Party”) is entitled to indemnification hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Party obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) thereof; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby.

In the event that any party hereto shall claim that it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to the terms of this Article IX, such party (the “Claiming Party”) shall promptly notify the party or parties against which the claim is made (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such claim (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after the Claiming Party receives notice of any action, Proceeding, demand, assessment, claim, loss, liability or damages, whether or not involving any claim of a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), that may reasonably be expected to result in a claim for indemnification by the Claiming Party against the Indemnifying Party. The Claim Notice shall specify the breach of representation, warranty or covenant claimed by the Claiming Party and the Losses incurred by, or anticipated to be incurred by, the Claiming Party on account thereof. If such Losses are final and liquidated in amount, the Claim Notice shall so state and such amount shall be deemed the amount of the claim of the Claiming Party. If such Losses are not final and liquidated, the Claim Notice shall so state and in such event a claim shall be deemed asserted against the Indemnifying Party on behalf of the Claiming Party, but no payment shall be made on account thereof until the amount of such claim is liquidated and the Losses are finally determined.
