     Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedures.

          (a) If a Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (“Indemnified Party”), it will within a reasonable period of time after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnification provide Notice to the other Party (“Indemnifying Party”) specifying the nature of and the specific basis for such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party’s failure to send or delay in sending such a Notice with respect to a third-party claim will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability hereunder with respect to such claim except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure or delay.

          (b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect to) any third-party claims brought against the Indemnified Party that are covered by the indemnification set forth in this Agreement, including

the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court or similar authority, and the settling of any such matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement will be entered into without the consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) of the Indemnified Party unless it includes a full release of the Indemnified Party for such matter or issues, as the case may be, and does not require an admission of guilt or wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnified Party or imposes any continuing obligation on or requires any payment from the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such third party Claim, it shall within thirty (30) days notify the Indemnitee in writing of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such third-party claim but fails to diligently prosecute such claim, or if the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim, the Indemnified Party may assume control of such defense and in the event it is determined that the claim was a matter for which the Indemnifying Party is required to provide indemnification under the terms of this Article IX, the Indemnifying Party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses).

          (c) The Indemnified Party will cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party with respect to all aspects of the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Agreement, including the prompt furnishing to the Indemnifying Party of any correspondence or other Notice relating thereto that the Indemnified Party may receive, permitting the names of the Indemnified Party to be utilized in connection with such defense, the making available to the Indemnifying Party of any files, records, or other information of the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party considers relevant to such defense and the making available to the Indemnifying Party of any employees of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that in connection therewith the Indemnifying Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of the Indemnified Party. The obligation of the Indemnified Party to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party will not be construed as imposing an obligation on the Indemnified Party to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Agreement. Without limiting the right of the Indemnifying Party to control all aspects of the defense, the Indemnified Party may, at its own option, cost, and expense, hire and pay for counsel in connection with such defense, which such counsel the Indemnifying Party will keep reasonably informed as to the status of any such defense.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE IX, BUT LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED HEREIN, SUCH INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY STATE’S “EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE” OR SIMILAR RULE THAT WOULD DENY COVERAGE BASED ON AN INDEMNITEE’S SOLE OR CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE. IT IS THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES THAT, TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE IX, THE INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE IX SHALL APPLY TO AN INDEMNITEE’S SOLE OR CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS PROVISION IS “CONSPICUOUS” FOR PURPOSES OF ALL STATE LAWS.
