Claims.

The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in such defense, to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such defense at its own expense. In any claim made or suit brought for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Article 19, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or offer to settle such claim or suit, or admit liability or damages, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any claim or suit in such a manner as would create an obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party to any third party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.

Procedure. To be eligible to be Indemnified hereunder, the indemnified Party shall provide the indemnifying Party with prompt notice of the Third-Party Claim giving rise to the indemnification obligation pursuant to this [Section 9.5] and the exclusive ability to defend (with the reasonable cooperation of the indemnified Party) or settle any such claim; provided that delay or failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided under [Section 9.5(a)] or [Section 9.5(b)], as applicable, except to the extent the indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced as a result of such delay or failure; further provided, however, that the indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement that admits fault, wrongdoing or damages without the indemnified Party’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each such notice of the Third-Party Claim shall contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of any Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time).

The indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, at its own expense and with counsel of its choice, in the defense of any claim or suit that has been assumed by the indemnifying Party, provided that the indemnifying Party shall have no obligations with respect to any Losses resulting from the indemnified Party’s admission, settlement or other communication without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party.

Any Third Party Claim. If any third party claim is commenced against a Party entitled to indemnification under this Article 21 (the “Indemnified Party”), notice thereof will be given to the Party obligated to indemnify such claim (the “Indemnifying Party”) as promptly as practicable. No Indemnified Party shall settle or compromise any third party claim that may be the subject of an indemnification claim against the Indemnifying Party, whereby such claim involves the payment of money, injunctive relief or any admission by, or obligation imposed on, the Indemnifying Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, except as set forth herein. Any settlement or compromise of such third party claim without such consent from the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation with respect to such claim.

In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted, or that any claim shall be asserted, by any Person not party to this Agreement in respect of an Indemnification Claim, the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Indemnification Claim of which it has knowledge that is covered by this indemnity to be delivered to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided that 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 is materially prejudiced by such delay. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and to defend against any Indemnification Claim and if the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against any Indemnification Claim, it shall within twenty (20) Business Days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires) (the “Dispute Period”) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect within the Dispute Period to defend against any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against any Indemnification Claim, # the Indemnifying Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to defend and protect the interests of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnification Claim, # the Indemnified Party, prior to or during the period in which the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such matter, may take such reasonable actions as the Indemnified Party deems necessary to preserve any and all rights with respect to such matter, without such actions being construed as a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s rights to defense and indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, # the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that it shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for such Indemnification Claim pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX and # the Indemnified Party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if # so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate or # based upon the advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, or there are defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one firm of counsel (in addition to local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties in connection with an Indemnification Claim. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.4 to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise, or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to, any Indemnification Claim (each, a “Settlement”) unless # the claimant and such Indemnifying Party provide to such Indemnified Party an unqualified release from all Liability in respect of the Indemnification Claim, # such Settlement does not impose any Liabilities on the Indemnified Party, and # with respect to any non-monetary provision of such Settlement, such provisions would not, in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, have or be reasonably expected to have any adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of the Indemnified Party.

Procedures. Any indemnified party submitting an indemnity claim under this Section 13, as applicable (“Indemnified Party”), shall: # promptly notify the indemnifying Party (“Indemnifying Party”), of such claim in writing and furnish the Indemnifying Party with a copy of the applicable communication, notice or other action relating to the event for which indemnity is sought; provided that, no failure to provide such notice pursuant to this clause (a) shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend or settle the claim; # give the Indemnifying Party the authority, information and assistance necessary to defend or settle such suit or proceeding in such a manner as the Indemnifying Party shall determine; and # give the Indemnifying Party sole control of the defense (including the right to select counsel, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) and the sole right to compromise and settle such suit or proceeding; provided, however, that in the case of the [foregoing clauses (b) and (c)])], the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, compromise or settle any suit or proceeding unless such compromise or settlement # is solely for monetary damages (for which the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible), # does not impose injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party and # includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. The Indemnified Party (in its capacity as such) may participate in the defense at its own expense.
