10.3 INDEMNIFICATION BY BUYER. Buyer agrees, subject to the other
--------------------------
terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement (including the provisions of
ARTICLE 10 hereof), to indemnify the Seller and any Seller Indemnitee against,
and to hold the Seller and each Seller Indemnitee harmless from, all Loss
arising out of the failure of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained
in ARTICLE 4 of this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant to this
Agreement, to be true and correct as of the Closing Date or the breach or
violation of any covenant of Buyer made herein.
10.4 PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION. As used herein, an "INDEMNIFIED
-------------------------------
PARTY" means a party seeking indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE 10, and the
term "INDEMNIFYING PARTY" means the party who is obligated to provide
indemnification under ARTICLE 10. The
-22-
Indemnified Party agrees to give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of
any event, or any claim, action, suit, demand, assessment, investigation,
arbitration or other proceeding by or in respect of a third party (a
"THIRD-PARTY CLAIM") of which it has knowledge, for which such Indemnifying
Party is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE 10. In the case of a
Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to direct, through
counsel of its own choosing, the defense or settlement of any such Third-Party
Claim at its own expense. In such case the Indemnified Party may participate in
such defense, but in such case the expenses of the Indemnified Party will be
paid by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will promptly provide the
Indemnifying Party with access to the Indemnified Party's records and personnel
relating to any such Third-Party Claim during normal business hours and will
otherwise cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense or settlement of
such Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the
Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred in providing such access, personnel and cooperation. Upon assumption
of the defense of any such Third-Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnified Party will not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of any claim or
demand arising from such Third-Party Claim, unless the Indemnifying Party
consents in writing to such payment (which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld) or unless a final judgment from which no appeal may be taken by or on
behalf of the Indemnified Party is entered against the Indemnified Party for
such liability. No such Third-Party Claim may be settled by the Indemnifying
Party without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will
not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnifying Party fails to defend or
fails to prosecute or withdraws from such defense, then the Indemnified Party
will have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, at the
Indemnifying Party's expense. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of
any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 and proposes to settle
such Third-Party Claim prior to a final judgment thereon or to forgo appeal with
respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party will give the Indemnifying Party
prompt written notice thereof and the Indemnifying Party will have the right to
participate in the settlement or assume or reassume the defense of such
Third-Party Claim.
10.5 LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION. Notwithstanding anything herein
------------------------------
to the contrary, no claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE 10 may be
brought after the twelve (12) month period following the Closing Date; provided,
however, that claims for indemnification relating to Taxes (including without
limitation Transaction Taxes) may be brought at any time prior to the expiration
of the applicable statute of limitation.

Seller Ancillary Agreement is not performed in accordance with its respective
