In connection with any such third-party claim, demand, action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall cooperate with each other and provide each other with access to relevant books and records in their possession. No such third-party claim, demand, action or proceeding shall be settled without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. If a firm written offer is made to settle any such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding and the Indemnifying Party proposes to accept such settlement and Indemnified Party refuses to consent to such settlement, then: (a) the Indemnifying Party shall be excused from, and the Indemnified Party shall be solely responsible for, all further defense of such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding; and (b) the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party relating to such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding shall be the amount of the proposed settlement if the amount thereafter recovered from the Indemnified Party on such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding is greater than the amount of the proposed settlement. Whether or not an Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of any such third-party claim, action, demand or proceeding, no Indemnified Party shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any such claim, demand, action or proceeding without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

6.3 Cooperation of the Parties. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in the resolution of any claim or liability with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability. In the event that an Indemnified Party shall fail to make such commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify any person for any losses that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the Indemnified Party had made such efforts.
6.4 Termination of Indemnification Obligations. The indemnification obligations set forth in this Article VI shall terminate on the date which is one (1) year following the Closing; provided that such obligations shall not terminate as to any item as to which the Indemnified Party shall have, before the expiration of such one (1) year period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice of such claim (stating in reasonable detail the basis of such claim) to the Indemnifying Party. All of the representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties made by Seller in Sections 5.1.1, 5.1.5, and 5.1.7 shall survive for a period of two (2) years.
