Except as provided in the following sentence, indemnification for Special Servicer Losses described in the preceding paragraph (including in the case of such Special Servicer Losses that relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense) shall be paid out of collections on, and other proceeds of, the Mortgage Loans as a whole but not out of collections on, or other proceeds of, any Serviced Companion Loan or any B Note. In the case of any such Special Servicer Losses that do not relate primarily to the administration of the Trust, to any REMIC Pool or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense:
Indemnification Claims (a) In the event that any of the Parties are entitled, or seek to assert rights, to indemnification under this Article VI, the Party or Parties seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Parties”) shall give written notification to the other Party or Parties (the “Indemnifying Parties”) of the commencement of any suit or proceeding relating to a third party claim for which indemnification pursuant to this Article VI may be sought. Such notification shall be given within 20 Business Days after receipt by the Indemnified Parties of notice of such suit or proceeding, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Parties) the facts constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Parties in notifying the Indemnifying Parties shall relieve the Indemnifying Parties of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Parties may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Parties seeking indemnification, assume control of the defense of such suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification; provided that the Indemnifying Parties may not assume control of the defense of a suit or proceeding involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification. If the Indemnifying Parties do not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Parties seeking indemnification shall control such defense. The Party not controlling such defense (the “Non-Controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided that if the Indemnifying Parties assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Parties seeking indemnification reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties seeking indemnification have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such suit or proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Parties shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The Party or Parties controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-Controlling Party advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-Controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-Controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party as reasonably needed in the defense of such suit or proceeding at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Parties under Section 6.1 or 6.2, which cost and expense shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The Indemnifying Parties shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the consent of the Indemnified Parties shall not be required if the Indemnifying Parties agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the Indemnified Parties from further liability and has no other materially adverse effect on the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Parties shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Indemnification of Third Party Claims The obligations and liabilities of any party to indemnify any other under this Article 6 with respect to Claims relating to third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
Third-Party Claim Indemnification Procedures (a) In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder, other than those relating to Taxes (which are the exclusive subject of Article X), is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third-Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third-Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure timely to give a Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a litigated matter) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim.
