INDEMNIFICATION

5.1

Indemnity Against Claims.

(a)

The Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser (the "Indemnified Party"), harmless from and against the following:

(i)

Any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and reasonable expenses suffered by the Indemnified Party (whether awarded against the Indemnified Party or paid by the Indemnified Party in settlement of a claim as provided in Section 5.3 or otherwise suffered), resulting from the breach of any representation or non-fulfillment of any covenant on the part of the Seller contained in this Agreement or in any written statement, attachment, schedule, exhibit or certificate furnished or to be furnished by the Seller to Purchaser pursuant hereto; and

(ii)

Any and all actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments or judgments, costs and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incident to any of the foregoing.

(b)

The amount of any loss subject to indemnification hereunder shall be calculated net of any amounts which have been previously recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies or other collateral sources, and the Indemnified Party hereby covenants that it will not release any such collateral sources from any obligations it may have. In the event any such insurance proceeds or other payments are not received before any claim for indemnification is paid pursuant to this Agreement, then



6





the Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the obligation) to exclusively pursue such collateral sources, provided it does so with reasonable diligence, and in the event it receives any recovery, then the amount of such recovery shall be applied first to reimburse the Indemnified Party for its out of pocket expenses expended in pursuing such recovery, second to refund any payment made which would not have been so paid had such recovery from the collateral source been obtained prior to such payment, and third, any excess to the Indemnified Party.

5.2

Notice of Claim, Assumption of Defense and Settlement of Claims.

(a)

Any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (the "Indemnitee") shall promptly give notice (an "Indemnification Notice") in accordance with Section 7.9 hereof to the parties required to provide indemnification (collectively the "Indemnifying Party") after the Indemnitee shall have knowledge of any demands, claims, actions or causes of action (singly, a "Claim" and hereinafter referred to collectively as "Claims") which might give rise to a Claim by the Indemnitee against the Indemnifying Party stating the nature and basis of said Claim and amount thereof, to the extent known. A failure to give notice hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless such failure to give notice shall materially and adversely affect the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend the Claim. Each such Indemnification Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of the Claim and shall, to the extent available to the Indemnitee, include such supporting documentation as shall reasonably be necessary to apprise the Indemnifying Party of the facts giving rise to the Claim. After the delivery of an Indemnification Notice certifying that the Indemnitee has incurred or had asserted against it any liabilities, claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses for which indemnity may be sought in accordance with the terms of this Article V (the "Damages"), the Indemnitee shall make a claim in an amount equal to the incurred Damages or asserted Damages, as the case may be (which, in the case of any asserted Damages shall include the Indemnitee's reasonably estimated cost of the defense thereof, hereinafter the "Estimated Defense Costs"). The right to indemnification hereof and the amount or estimated amount thereof, as set forth in such notice, shall be deemed agreed to by each Indemnifying Party unless, within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice (the expiration of such 30-day period being hereinafter referred to as the "Liability Notice Deadline Date"), the Indemnified Parties are notified in writing pursuant to Section 7.9 that such Indemnifying Party disputes the right to indemnification as set forth or estimated in such notice or that he or she elects to defend, in the manner hereinafter provided, the claim of a third party giving rise to such indemnification right. If such Indemnifying Party disputes the right to indemnification as hereinabove provided or elects to defend the claim of the third party, the same shall be deemed determined when finally determined by a court or tribunal from which no appeal is or may be taken or when the defense thereto has been abandoned and if a court or tribunal from which no appeal is or may be taken determines that the Indemnified Party was entitled to indemnification then the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the amount of Damages sought by such Indemnified Party. In the event the amount of such Damages are not promptly reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as aforesaid, the amount of such unreimbursed Damages shall accrue interest from the Liability Notice Deadline Date at a rate equal to two percent (2%) above the applicable prime rate of Citibank, N.A.

(b)

With respect to any third party Claims made subsequent to the Closing, the following procedures shall be observed:

(i)

Promptly after delivery of an Indemnification Notice in respect of a Claim, the Indemnified Party may elect, by written notice to the Indemnitee, to undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee and

at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. In the event the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such Claim, it shall not, except as provided in Section 5.2(b)(ii), be liable to the Indemnitee for any








legal fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee after the date thereof, in connection with such defense. The Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in, but not control the conduct of, any such action through counsel of its own choosing, at its own expense.

(ii)

Unless and until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the third party Claim as provided in Section 5.2(b)(i), or in the event the Indemnifying Party ceases to conduct such defense, the Indemnified Party may defend against the third party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(iii)

Failure by the Indemnifying Party to notify the Indemnitee of its election to defend any such action by the Liability Notice Deadline Date shall be deemed a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of its right to defend such action. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Claim, its obligations hereunder as to such Claim shall be limited to taking all steps necessary in the defense or settlement of such Claim and to holding the Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, expenses and liabilities awarded in any such proceeding or arising out of any settlement approved by the Indemnifying Party or any judgment in connection with such Claim.

(iv)

The Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of any such Claim, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party Claim without the prior written consent of Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except that no consent of the Indemnitee shall be required if the judgment or proposed settlement: (i) involves only the payment of money damages to be paid by the Indemnifying Party and does not impose any injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnitee, (ii) includes as an unconditional term thereof a full dismissal of the litigation or proceeding with prejudice and the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation, and (iii) does not by its terms attribute liability to the Indemnitee.

In no event will the Indemnitee consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

The Indemnitee will cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of any proceeding as to which the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense hereunder. Such cooperation shall include: (i) providing the Indemnifying Party and its counsel access to all books and records of the Indemnitee to the extent reasonably related to such proceeding, (ii) furnishing information about the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party and their counsel, (iii) making employees available to counsel to the Indemnifying Party, and (iv) preserving the existence of and maintaining all books and records of the Indemnitee or any other Indemnified Party that is an entity that may reasonably be deemed to be potentially relevant to any such proceeding until the proceeding is finally concluded.

5.3

Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided to an Indemnified Party herein shall be cumulative and shall not preclude an Indemnified Party from asserting any other rights or seeking any other remedies against an Indemnifying Party or his or its respective heirs, successors or assigns. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.
