The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims which are timely asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

 

Section 7.05       Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event, or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.18 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation in Article ARTICLE VI) shall be governed exclusively by Article ARTICLE VI hereof.

 

Section 7.06       Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided for in this Article ARTICLE VII (and in Article ARTICLE VI) are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at Law or in equity or otherwise.
