Method of Asserting Claims, Etc To be entitled to indemnity hereunder, an Indemnified Party must send notice of a claim to the Indemnifying Party within the applicable Time Limitations and within 15 business days of the Indemnified Party becoming aware of the state of facts underlying the claim, but the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party within such time period will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such action is actually prejudiced by the Indemnified Party's failure to give such notice. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party hereunder shall be asserted and resolved as set forth in this Section 12.3. In the event that any written claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to any Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than 15 business days following such Indemnified Party's receipt of such claim or demand, notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand (providing sufficient details with respect to such claim or demand to put the Indemnifying Party on notice of such claim or demand) and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent such estimate is then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim and demand) (the "Claim Notice"). The Indemnifying Party shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party (a) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such claim or demand and (b) whether or not it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand. All costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in defending such claim or demand shall be a liability of, and shall be paid by, the Indemnifying Party. Except as hereinafter provided, in the event that the Indemnifying Party promptly notifies the Indemnified Party that it accepts liability hereunder with respect thereto and elects to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense. If any Indemnified Party desires to participate in any such defense it may do so at its sole cost and expense. The Indemnified Party shall not settle a claim or demand without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to promptly assume the defense thereof and (ii) within 10 days after the Indemnified Party shall have given the Indemnifying Party written notice of the proposed settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall not have given the Indemnified Party written notice accepting liability hereunder with respect thereto and of its election to assume the defense of such claim or demand, in which event the Indemnified Party may enter into the proposed settlement and the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to object to the terms thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any such claim or demand on a basis which would result in (i) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree which would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party's business or any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, (ii) any remedy other than damages payable in full by the Indemnifying Party or (iii) any admission of a violation of Law that would constitute a crime or any other admission of a violation of Law that would impair in any material respect the Indemnified Party's conduct of its business or would establish, by collateral estoppel or by legally admissible evidence, the basis of any other claim against the Indemnified Party which would not be subject to full indemnity hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice as provided above or otherwise, then the amount of any such claim or demand, or, if the same be contested by the Indemnified Party, then that portion thereof as to which such defense is unsuccessful (and the reasonable costs and expenses pertaining to such defense) shall be the liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 12.1 hereof.

Cooperation in Legal Proceedings During the Employment Period and for a period equal to three (3) years from the effective date of the termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such cooperation, information and assistance to the Bank as may reasonably be required by the Bank or any Affiliate of the Bank in connection with any pending or threatened judicial, administrative or arbitration proceeding or any investigation that is based on events or circumstances in which Executive had personal knowledge or involvement and in which the Bank or any of its Affiliates is or may become a party or target, except for proceedings instituted against Executive by the Bank or any governmental or regulatory authority, or proceedings instituted by Executive against the Bank to enforce the terms of this Agreement or any other duties or obligations of the Bank to Executive. The Bank, or if applicable, its Affiliate, shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Executive in providing such cooperation, information and assistance. Unless Executive’s appearance is compelled by a court order or other legal process, Executive shall not be obligated to devote more than two (2) days per calendar month in fulfilling his obligations under this Section 8(d), and the Bank or its Affiliate shall make reasonable accommodations to avoid interfering with any duties that Executive may then have to any client or other employer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8(d) or this Agreement, while Executive will be encouraged to voluntarily provide sworn testimony where appropriate, Executive shall have no duty to provide sworn testimony in any judicial, arbitration or discovery proceeding except as may be required by any rule of procedure, subpoena or judicial process applicable to or enforceable against Executive, and in no case shall Executive be required to provide any testimony that, in the judgment of Executive, might or could expose him to civil liability or compromise his privilege against self incrimination. Any testimony given by Executive in such a proceeding shall be truthful, but in no event shall the content of any testimony given by Executive in such a proceeding constitute a breach of this Section 8(d) or any other provision of this Agreement. Executive may condition his providing of assistance and testimony hereunder on his receipt of an undertaking from the Bank that it will indemnify him for such actions to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
