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.
