Party Claim must be delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the Indemnified Party’s Claims Notice, and failure on the part of the Indemnifying Party to deliver such notice within such thirty (30) Business Day period shall be deemed an election not to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such Third Party Claim.

Subject to the provisions of [Section 17.02(c)], upon receipt of a Claims Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense and control of Third Party Claims. In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises such right to assume the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right but not the obligation reasonably to participate in (but not control) the defense of Third Party Claims with its own counsel and at its own expense unless # the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed in writing to the retention of the same counsel, or # the named parties to any such Third Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would, in the opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, be impermissible under the applicable code of professional responsibility due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from, or additional to, those available to the Indemnifying Party, in which case the Indemnifying Party will bear such expense of the Indemnified Party. Any election by an Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim must be delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the Indemnified Party’s Claims Notice, and failure on the part of the Indemnifying Party to deliver such notice within such thirty (30) Business Day period shall be deemed an election not to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such Third Party Claim.

A Party believing that it is entitled to indemnification under Sections 11(a)-(b) (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notification to the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement of any Claim by a Third Party for which indemnification may be sought or, if earlier, upon the assertion of any such Claim by a third party (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnified Party to give notice of a third party Claim as provided in this Section 11(c)(i) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice). Within thirty (30) days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If a Party believes that a Claim presented to it for indemnification is one as to which the Party

In the event the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Claiming Party that the Indemnifying Party does not wish to defend the Third Party Claim, then the Claiming Party shall have the right to conduct a defense against such Third Party Claim and shall have the right to settle and compromise such Third Party Claim if it acts reasonably and in good faith upon fifteen (15) calendar days’ notice to, but without having to first obtain the consent of, the Indemnifying Party.

Notice of Claims; Procedures. If any Indemnified Party makes any claim against any Indemnifying Party for indemnification under this Article VII, the claim shall be in writing and shall state in general terms the facts upon which such Indemnified Party makes the claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party in writing within twenty (20) Business Days from receipt of such claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed with such claim. In the event of any claim or demand asserted against an Indemnified Party by a third party upon which the Indemnified Party may claim indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Daysafter receipt from the Indemnified Party of such claim or demand, indicating whether the Indemnifying Party intends to assume the defense of the claim or demand. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense, the Indemnifying Party may not agree to any compromise or settlement to which the Indemnified Party has not consented in writing. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense or fails to make such an election within the twenty (20) Business Day period, or otherwise fails to continue the defense of the Indemnified Party reasonably and in good faith, the Indemnified Party may assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and a recovery against the Indemnified Party suffered by it in good faith shall be conclusive in its favor against the Indemnifying Party.

Third Party Claims. If any claim or demand in respect of which an Indemnified Party might seek indemnity under this Article XI is asserted against such Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice (the “Third Party Claim Notice”) and the details thereof including an estimate of the claimed Losses (if known and quantifiable), copies of all relevant pleadings, documents and information to the Indemnifying Party within a period of thirty (30) days following the assertion of the Third Party Claim against the Indemnified Party (the “Third Party Claim Notice Period”); provided, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party within the Third Party Claim Notice Period shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have actually and materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. Within fifteen (15) days after its receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall, in writing, either acknowledge or deny its obligations to indemnify and defend under this Article XI.
