Indemnification Procedures. All indemnification obligations in this Agreement are conditioned upon the indemnified party # promptly notifying the indemnifying party of any claim or liability of which the indemnified party becomes aware (including a copy of any related complaint, summons, notice or other instrument); provided, that failure to provide such notice within a reasonable period of time shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure, # allowing the indemnifying party, if the indemnifying party so requests, to conduct and control the defense of any such claim or liability and any related settlement negotiations (at the indemnifying party’s expense), # cooperating with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or liability and any related settlement negotiations (at the indemnifying party’s expense) and # not compromising or settling any claim or liability without prior written consent of the indemnifying party.

Indemnification Procedures. All indemnification obligations in this Agreement are conditioned upon the Party seeking indemnification: # promptly notifying the indemnifying Party of any claim or liability of which the Party seeking indemnification becomes aware (including a copy of any related complaint, summons, notice or other instrument); provided, however, that failure to provide such notice within a reasonable period of time shall not relieve the indemnifying Party of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure; # reasonably cooperating with the indemnifying Party in the defense of any such claim or liability (at the indemnifying Party’s expense); and # not compromising or settling any claim or liability without prior written consent of the indemnifying Party.

Indemnification Procedures. The indemnified party shall # promptly notify the indemnifying party of any claim or liability of which the indemnified party becomes aware (including a copy of any related complaint, summons, notice or other instrument); provided, that failure to provide such notice within a reasonable period of time shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure, # allow the indemnifying party to conduct and control the defense of any such claim or liability and any related settlement negotiations (at the indemnifying party’s expense), and # cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or liability and any related settlement negotiations (at the indemnifying party’s expense). The indemnifying party shall have discretion to settle any action subject to indemnification under this Agreement; provided that the indemnifying party shall not enter into any settlement that would adversely affect the EXECUTION VERSION

Procedures. The indemnities set forth in this Agreement are conditioned on the following: # the party claiming indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify the indemnifying party (the “Indemnitor”) of any matters in respect of which it seeks to be indemnified, and shall give the Indemnitor full cooperation and opportunity to control the response thereto and the defense thereof, including without limitation any settlement thereof; # the Indemnitor shall have no obligation for any claim under this Agreement if the Indemnitee makes any admission, settlement or other communication regarding such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and # the Indemnitee’s failure to promptly give notice to the Indemnitor shall affect the Indemnitor’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee only to the extent the Indemnitor’s rights are materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitee may participate, at its own expense, in such defense and in any settlement discussions directly or through counsel of its choice. Each party will take all reasonable steps to mitigate any potential damages. If both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee are negligent or otherwise at fault, or strictly liable without fault, then the indemnification obligations under this Article 13 shall continue, but the Indemnitor shall indemnify the Indemnitee only for the percentage of responsibility for the damage or injuries attributable to the Indemnitor.

Indemnification Procedure. In connection with any Claim for which a Party (the “Indemnitee”) seeks indemnification from the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall: # give the Indemnitor prompt written notice of the Claim; provided, however, that failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor from its liability or obligation hereunder, except to the extent of any material prejudice as a direct result of such failure; # cooperate with the Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor’s expense, in connection with the defense and settlement of the Claim; and # permit the Indemnitor to control the defense and settlement of the Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitor may not settle the Claim without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, in the event such settlement materially adversely impacts the Indemnitee’s rights or obligations. Further, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate (but not control) and be represented in any suit or action by advisory counsel of its selection and at its own expense.

Indemnification Procedures. If any Claim is alleged or asserted against a party entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), notice thereof shall be given to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) as promptly as practicable. If the Parties determine that a third party may be responsible for such Claim, such as a Vendor or insurance company, the Parties will work in good faith to seek indemnification from such third Party; provided the same will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from obligations under this Agreement to the extent such third party does not assume indemnification obligations for the Claim. If a third party does not assume the indemnification obligations, and the Indemnifying Party acknowledges that the terms of this Agreement apply with respect to such claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, if it so elects, in a notice promptly delivered to the Indemnified Party, but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which a response to such claim is due, to immediately take control of the defense and investigation of such claim and to employ and engage attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. No settlement of a claim that involves a remedy other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party shall be entered into without the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate, at the cost of the Indemnifying Party, in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such claim and any appeal arising therefrom; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its own cost and expense (except as otherwise would be the responsibility of the Indemnifying Party hereunder), participate, through its attorneys or otherwise, in such investigation, trial and defense of such claim and any appeal arising therefrom. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control over the defense of a claim subject to such defense as provided in this Section 12.3, the Indemnifying Party may participate in such defense, at its sole cost and expense, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend the claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.

Indemnification Procedure. Upon notice of any Liability, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing. Failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations except to the extent the failure or delay is prejudicial. The Indemnifying Party shall have control over the defense and any settlement of any such claim for Liability; provided however that # the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such claim; and # the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) from the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such claim. The Parties shall cooperate in furnishing such information and attending such conferences and hearings as reasonably requested in connection with the defense or prosecution of any Liabilities. In the event the Indemnifying Party fails to act within a reasonable time after receiving notice, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

Indemnification Procedures. Any Party seeking indemnity hereunder shall: # give prompt written notice to the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any Losses for which indemnification is sought; # permit the Indemnifying Party to assume full responsibility to investigate, prepare for and defend against the claim(s) giving rise to such Losses; # reasonably assist the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable expense in the investigation of, preparation for and defense of such claim(s); and # not compromise or settle any such claim(s) without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Indemnification Procedure. The indemnified party shall:(i) give the indemnifying party prompt written notice of such claim; and # allow the indemnifying party to control, and fully cooperate with the indemnifying party (at the indemnifying party’s sole expense) in, the defense and all related negotiations. The indemnifying party shall not enter into any stipulated judgment or settlement that purports to bind the indemnified party without the indemnified party’s express written authorization, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after any Indemnified Party has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third Person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled # at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and # if # the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or # if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party.
