Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an insurance carrier has supplied directors' and officers' liability insurance covering a proceeding and is entitled to retain counsel for the defense of such proceeding, then the insurance carrier shall retain counsel to conduct the defense of such proceeding unless Director and the Corporation concur in writing that the insurance carrier's doing so is undesirable. The Corporation shall not be liable under this Agreement for any settlement of any proceeding affected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any proceeding in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Director without Director's written consent.
