Such notice shall include a description of the terms and conditions of, and the identity of the person making, any proposal, inquiry, offer or request, (including any amendment thereto) and all written communications with such person, and shall include copies of any such proposal, inquiry, offer or request (or any amendment to any of the foregoing). The Company shall also provide such other details of the proposal, inquiry, offer or request (or any amendment to the foregoing) as the Offeror may request, acting reasonably. The Company shall keep the Offeror promptly and fully informed of the status, including any change to the material terms, of any such proposal, inquiry, offer or request, or any amendment to the foregoing, and will provide to the Offeror promptly all written communications with such person and will respond promptly to all inquiries by the Offeror with respect thereto.
Non-Third Party Claims Upon discovery of any claim for which Buyer has an indemnification obligation under the terms of Section 12.1 which does not involve a claim by a third party against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to Buyer of such claim and, in any case, shall give Buyer such notice within 30 days of such discovery. A failure by Indemnitee to timely give the foregoing notice to Buyer shall not excuse Buyer from any indemnification liability except to the extent that Buyer is materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure.
Certain Transactions and Confidentiality Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including Short Sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending at such time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.
Notification of Unsolicited Acquisition Proposals (i) As promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 48 hours) after the first officer or director of the Company becomes aware of the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or inquiry which the Board reasonably believes would lead to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall provide to Parent oral and written notice of the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the person or group making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and a copy of all written materials provided in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry. The Company shall provide to Parent as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 48 hours thereafter) oral and written notice setting forth all such information as is reasonably necessary to keep Parent informed in all material respects of the status and details (including material amendments or proposed material amendments) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and shall promptly provide to Parent a copy of all written materials subsequently provided in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously so furnished).
Third Party Foreign Exchange Transactions The Custodian shall process foreign exchange transactions (including without limitation contracts, futures, options, and options on futures), where any third party acts as principal counterparty to the Trust on the same basis, if any, that it performs duties as agent for the Trust with respect to any other of the Trust’s investments. Accordingly, the Custodian shall only be responsible for delivering or receiving currency on behalf of the Trust in respect of such contracts pursuant to Written Instructions. The Custodian shall not be responsible for the failure of any counterparty (including any Sub-custodian) in such agency transaction to perform its obligations thereunder. The Custodian (a) shall transmit cash and Written Instructions to and from the currency broker or banking institution with which a foreign exchange contract or option has been executed pursuant hereto, (b) may make free outgoing payments of cash in the form of Dollars or foreign currency without receiving confirmation of a foreign exchange contract or option or confirmation that the countervalue currency completing the foreign exchange contract has been delivered or received or that the option has been delivered or received, (c) may, in connection with cash payments made to third party currency broker/dealers for settlement of the Trust’s foreign exchange spot or forward transactions, foreign exchange swap transactions and similar foreign exchange transactions, process settlements using the banking facilities selected by Custodian from time to time according to such banking facilities standard terms, and (d) shall hold all confirmations, certificates and other documents and agreements received by the Custodian and evidencing or relating to such foreign exchange transactions in safekeeping. The Trust accepts full responsibility for its use of third-party foreign exchange dealers and for execution of said foreign exchange contracts and options and understands that the Trust shall be responsible for any and all costs and interest charges which may be incurred by the Trust or the Custodian as a result of the failure or delay of third parties to deliver foreign exchange.
Notice of Third Party Claims; Assumption of Defense The Indemnified Person shall give notice as promptly as is reasonably practicable to Barberry of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding, by any Person not a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Person to promptly give notice shall not relieve Barberry of its obligations except to the extent (if any) that Barberry shall have been prejudiced thereby. Barberry may, at its own expense, participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding (a) upon notice to the Indemnified Person and (b) upon delivery by Barberry to the Indemnified Person a written agreement that the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification for all Losses arising out of such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding and that Barberry shall be liable for the entire amount of any Loss, at any time during the course of any such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) Barberry’s counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, and (ii) Barberry shall thereafter consult with the Indemnified Person upon the Indemnified Person’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding. If Barberry assumes such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by Barberry. If, however, the Indemnified Person reasonably determines in its judgment that representation by Barberry’s counsel of both Barberry and the Indemnified Person would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then such Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such Third Party Claim, action, suit or proceeding and Barberry shall pay all of the fees and disbursements in connection with the retention of such separate counsel. If Barberry fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party that Barberry desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant, or if Barberry gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of Barberry, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnified Person in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Person (with the consent of Barberry, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Person will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. Whether or not Barberry chooses to defend or prosecute any such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.
Defense and Settlement of Third Party Claims The Indemnifying Party shall have the right (without prejudice to the right of any Indemnified Party to participate at its or his own expense through counsel of its or his own choosing) to defend against any Third Party Claim at its or his expense and through counsel of its or his own choosing and to control such defense if the Indemnifying Party gives written notice of its or his intention to do so within 15 business days of its or his receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in all reasonable respects in the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its or his counsel all pertinent information under their control relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to elect to settle any Third Party Claim; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not have any indemnification obligation with respect to any monetary payment to any third party required by such settlement unless the Indemnifying Party shall have consented thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to elect to settle any Third Party Claim subject to the consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if the Indemnified Party fails to give such consent within 15 business days of being requested to do so, the Indemnified Party shall, at its expense, assume the defense of such Third Party Claim and regardless of the outcome of such matter, the Indemnifying Party's liability hereunder shall be limited to the amount of any such proposed settlement. The foregoing provisions notwithstanding, in no event (a) may either Indemnifying Party adjust, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim unless such adjustment, compromise or settlement unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability, (b) may the Company Indemnifying Party adjust, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim if such adjustment, compromise or settlement affects the absolute and sole right of Provant or the Surviving Corporation to own or use any of the Company's assets or (c) may the Company Indemnifying Party defend any Third Party Claim which, if adversely determined, would materially impair the financial condition, business or prospects of Provant or the Surviving Corporation.
Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims In the event any Indemnified Party should have an indemnification claim against the Shareholder under this Agreement that does not involve a claim by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver notice of such claim to the Shareholder in writing and in reasonable detail. The failure by any Indemnified Party to so notify the Shareholder shall not relieve the Shareholder from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Shareholder has been actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Shareholder does not notify the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) Business Days following its receipt of such notice that the Shareholder disputes such claim, such claim specified by the Shareholder in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Shareholder under this Article VII and the Shareholder shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand, or in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim is finally determined. If the Shareholder disputes its liability with respect to such claim in a timely manner, Shareholder and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be submitted to arbitration pursuant to Section 9.9.
