15.7  
Procedures.
 
All Claims or demands for indemnification under this Section 15 shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
 
 
15.7.1
In the event an Indemnified Party has a Claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness send notice of such Claim to the Indemnifying Party.  In case the Indemnifying Party shall object in writing to any Claim for indemnification made in accordance with this Section 15.7.1, the Indemnified Party shall have fifteen (15) days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Indemnifying Party.  If after such 15-day period there remains a dispute as to any indemnification Claims or if the indemnifying party does not dispute such Claim as required under Section 15.7.2, the parties shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to reach written agreement on the resolution of such indemnification Claim.  If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation during that 30 day period, the parties shall submit the indemnification Claim for final determination by binding arbitration, with such arbitration proceeding conducted in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect.  The arbitration proceeding shall be held in the New York City metropolitan area and the costs thereof shall be paid by the prevailing party in such arbitration proceeding.  The failure of the Indemnifying Party to respond shall not be an acknowledgement of liability by the Indemnifying Party.
 
 
15.7.2
In the event that any Claim for which any party would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against an Indemnified Party by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness notify the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim, specifying the nature of such Claim and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Claim) (the “Claim Notice”).  The Indemnifying Party shall have fifteen (15) days from the receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim and (ii) if the Indemnifying Party does not dispute such liability, whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend against such Claim.  In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that the Indemnifying Party does not dispute its obligation to indemnify hereunder and desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim, except as hereinafter provided, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend by appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be promptly settled or prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion; provided that, unless the Indemnified Party otherwise agrees in writing, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any matter (in whole or in part) unless such settlement includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party.  If the Indemnified Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, the Indemnified Party may do so at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense.  If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim, whether by failure of the Indemnifying Party to give the Indemnified Party timely notice as provided above or otherwise, then the Indemnified Party, without waiving any rights against the Indemnifying Party, may settle or defend against any such Claim in the Indemnified Party’s sole discretion and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party the amount of any settlement or judgment and, on an ongoing basis, all indemnifiable costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, including interest from the date such costs and expenses were incurred.
 
 
 
33

 
 
15.7.3
An Indemnified Party may make an indemnification Claim hereunder, for potential or contingent Claims or demands provided the Claim Notice sets forth the specific basis for any such potential or contingent Claim or demand to the extent then feasible and the Indemnified Party has reasonable grounds to believe that such a Claim or demand may be made.
 
 
15.7.4
The Indemnified Party’s failure to give reasonably prompt notice to the Indemnifying Party of any actual, threatened or possible Claim or demand which may give rise to a right of indemnification hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party unless the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
