9.4

For any claim against a parry indemnified (“Indemnitee”) that may give rise to liability of a party providing indemnification (“Indemnitor”), the Indemnitee shall promptly notify Indemnitor of the claim; provided, however, that failure to give timely notice shall not be deemed a waiver of the claim provided that the Indemnitor is not prejudiced by the lack of timely notice and only then to the extent of such prejudice.

		If any claim is brought by a third parry against Indemnitee for which Indemnitor would be required to indemnify Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense of such claim if (i) Indemnitor provides written notice to Indemnitee that it intends to undertake such defense, and (ii) Indemnitor conducts the defense of the claim diligently. If Indemnitor undertakes the defense of such claim in accordance with the foregoing sentence, Indemnitor shall defend such claim at its own expense and with counsel selected by Indemnitor with the approval of Indemnitee, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld. Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in such defense at its own expense. If Indemnitor, after reasonable time after notice, fails to defend such claim in accordance with this Section 9.4, Indemnitee has the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense or settlement of such claim on behalf of, and at the risk of, Indemnitor. If the claim is one that by its nature cannot be solely defended by one party, the other party shall make available all information and provide all assistance as may reasonably be requested by the defending party.
		This Section 9.4 shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.
