Notification of Claims (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim, demand or circumstance that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim, demand or circumstance (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article XI except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, it being understood that notices for claims in respect of a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty or breach of or default under any obligation or covenant must be delivered before the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 11.4(a).
(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 11.5(a) with respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim upon written notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of the applicable Claim Notice and, in the event that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such claim, it shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. The Person that shall control the defense of any such Third Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) shall select counsel, contractors and consultants of recognized standing and competence after consultation with the other party and shall take all steps reasonably necessary in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim.
(c) The Sellers or the Buyer, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Controlling Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided that (i) such settlement shall not encumber any of the assets of the Indemnified Party or contain any restriction or condition that would apply to such Indemnified Party or to the conduct of the Indemnified Party’s business, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement (subject to Section 11.3, if applicable), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim.

Assertion of Claims (a) In the event that a Person (the "Indemnified Party") desires to assert its right to indemnification from a Person (an "Indemnifying Party") required to indemnify such Indemnified Party under this Article XII, the Indemnified Party will give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice of the claim giving rise thereto (a "Claim"), and the Indemnifying Party shall undertake the defense thereof (unless the Claim is asserted against or related to or results from any action or failure to take action by such Indemnifying Party). The failure to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the failure to so notify promptly.
(b) The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party unless the Indemnified Party agrees in writing to forego any and all claims for indemnification from the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Claim. However, if the Indemnifying Party, within a reasonable time after notice of any such Claim, fails to defend such Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof.
(c) If the Indemnifying Party has undertaken the defense of a Claim and (i) if there is a reasonable expectation that (x) a Claim may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments or (y) the Indemnified Party or Parties may have legal defenses available to it or them that are different from or additional to the defenses available to the Indemnifying Party, or (ii) if the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall nevertheless have the right, at the Indemnifying Party's cost and expense, to defend such Claim.

Notification and Defense of Claims The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Indemnitors in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information, or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder, but the failure so to notify the Indemnitors will not relieve the Indemnitors from any liability that the Indemnitors may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement unless the Indemnitors are materially prejudiced thereby. With respect to any such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitors of the commencement thereof:
(A) The Indemnitors will be entitled to participate therein at their own expense.
(B) Except as otherwise provided below, the Indemnitors will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Indemnitors to Indemnitee of the Indemnitors’ election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnitors will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee’s own counsel in such Proceeding, but the fees and disbursements of such counsel incurred after notice from the Indemnitors of the Indemnitors’ assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (a) the employment by counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Indemnitors, (b) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnitors and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, (c) such Proceeding seeks penalties or other relief against the Indemnitee with respect to which the Indemnitors could not provide monetary indemnification to the Indemnitee (such as injunctive relief or incarceration) or (d) the Indemnitors shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the fees and disbursements of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitors. The Indemnitors shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Indemnitors, or as to which Indemnitee shall have reached the conclusion specified in clause (b) above, or which involves penalties or other relief against Indemnitee of the type referred to in clause (c) above.
(C) The Indemnitors shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without the Indemnitors’ written consent. The Indemnitors shall not settle any action or claim in any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Indemnitors nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay consent to any proposed settlement.
Satisfaction of Claims (a) Claims made by the Buyer Indemnified Persons for indemnification under this Section 8 (other than claims made under clause (iv) or (v) of Section 8.2(a)) shall be satisfied (x) directly from Compass for Compass’ Pro Rata Percentage of such claim and (y) with respect to Sellers other than Compass, from the Non-Public Stockholder Indemnification Escrow Amount, and if the Non-Public Stockholder Indemnification Escrow Amount is insufficient to satisfy such claim for indemnification, then directly from Sellers (other than Compass), severally and not jointly for such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage of such claim. In the event of a Breach by a particular Seller under Section 8.2(b), indemnification for such Breach will be satisfied solely by such Seller (including from such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Non-Public Stockholder Indemnification Escrow Amount).
(b) Claims made by the Buyer Indemnified Persons for indemnification under clause (iv) or (v) of Section 8.2(a) shall be satisfied first from the Litigation Escrow Amount and, if the Litigation Escrow Amount is insufficient to satisfy such claim for indemnification, then, (x) directly from Compass for Compass’ Pro Rata Percentage of such claim and (y) with respect to Sellers other than Compass, from the Non-Public Stockholder Indemnification Escrow Amount and if the Non-Public Stockholder Indemnification Escrow Amount is insufficient to satisfy such claim for indemnification, then directly from Sellers (other than Compass), severally and not jointly for such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage of such claim.
(c) Claims made by the Buyer Indemnified Persons for indemnification under Section 6.2(d) shall be governed by such section.
Notification of Claim Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the date on which he gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:
(a) give the Company any information requested by the Company relating to such claim;
(b) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company;
(c) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim; and
(d) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and xxx for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs Executive to pay such claim and xxx for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided, further, that if Executive is required to extend the statute of limitations to enable the Company to contest such claim, Executive may limit this extension solely to such contested amount. The Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.
