Control of Litigation The Parties agree and acknowledge that ASCU shall be entitled at its option exclusively to control any Proceeding, including without limitation the Canyons Litigation, and each Party agrees (i) to promptly notify the other Party of the existence (or alleged existence) of the institution or commencement of any Proceeding instituted by any third party, and (ii) in the case of ASC, to cooperate fully with Indemnitors in connection therewith; provided, that Indemnitor’s right to control any Proceeding shall not be construed as including the right to enter into any settlement, consent judgment or decree or other order or judgment affecting Indemnitees and whether involving monetary or non-monetary relief without the prior written approval of Indemnitees, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Furthermore, Indemnitors agree to keep ASC and the Indemnitees reasonably informed of the status of each Proceeding, including providing ASC and the Indemnitees with copies of and access to ASCU’s, and any other Indemnitors’, legal counsel’s litigation files as well as providing Indemnitees with copies of all status reports or similar correspondence including, but not limited to, correspondence provided to any insurance carrier or bonding company with an interest in any such Proceeding or litigation. If ASCU fails to proceed promptly and diligently to respond to any such Proceeding as promptly as reasonably possible, including but not limited to failing to provide Indemnitees with notice of any proposed settlement prior to entering into such an agreement, and/or fails to keep Indemnitees reasonably informed of the status of any Proceeding, Indemnitees may send Notice of such failure to ASCU and if such failure is not corrected within 30 days after such Notice, Indemnitees may assume control of such Proceeding at Indemnitors’ sole expense. In the event of such an assumption of control of a Proceeding by Indemnitees, Indemnitees shall not enter into any settlement, consent decree or order without the prior written approval of ASCU, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
