limitation, any reasonable legal expenses) to the extent arising from, relating
to or otherwise in respect of (i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation
or warranty of AIDH contained in Sections 5 or 14 of this Agreement (as of
the
date hereof, or as of the Closing) or of any representation, warranty or
statement made in any schedule, certificate document or instrument delivered
by
AIDH or an officer of AIDH at or in connection with the Closing, or
(ii) the breach by AIDH of or failure by AIDH to perform any of its
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; (in the case of any
indemnification claim under Section 11(a)(2) or AIDH (in the case of any
indemnification claim under Section 11(a)(1).
21
(3) In
order
for an AIDH Indemnified Party or Major Shareholder (an “Indemnified Party”) to
be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement, the
Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of its claim for indemnification with
reasonable promptness after determining to make such claim, to the Major
Shareholder or any of them. The failure by any Indemnified Party to notify
the
Major Shareholder or AIDH, as the case may be, shall not relieve any relevant
indemnifying party from any liability which he or it may have to such
Indemnified Party under this Agreement, except to the extent that such claim
for
indemnification involves the claim of a third party against the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by such
failure. If an Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within
30 calendar days following receipt by it of such notice that such Indemnifying
Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement,
such
claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively
deemed a liability of such Indemnifying Party under this Agreement and such
Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified
Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the
claim
(or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount
of
such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If an
Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such
claim,
as provided above, such Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall
proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not
resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation
in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(4) (A) If
the
claim involves a third party claim (a “Third
Party Claim”),
then
the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole cost, expense and
ultimate liability regardless of the outcome, and through counsel of its
choice
(which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party),
to
litigate, defend, settle or otherwise attempt to resolve such Third Party
Claim;
provided,
however,
that if
in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist
between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to
such
Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to select
counsel of its own choosing, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying
Party,
in which event the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay the fees
and
expenses of such counsel.
(B) Notwithstanding
the preceding paragraph, if in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment no
such conflict exists, the Indemnified Party may, but will not be obligated
to,
participate at its own expense in a defense of such Third Party Claim by
counsel
of its own choosing, but the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control
the
defense unless (i) in the case where only money damages are sought, the
Indemnified Party has relieved the Indemnifying Party from liability with
respect to the particular matter or (ii) in the case where equitable relief
is sought, the Indemnified Party elects to participate in and jointly control
the defense thereof.
(C) Whenever
the Indemnifying Party controls the defense of a Third Party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party may only settle or compromise the matter subject to
indemnification without the consent of the Indemnified Party if such settlement
includes a complete release of all Indemnified Parties as to the matters
in
dispute and relates solely to money damages. The Indemnified Party will not
unreasonably withhold consent to any settlement or compromise that requires
its
consent.
22
(D) In
the
event the Indemnifying Party fails to timely defend, contest, or otherwise
protect the Indemnified Party against any such claim or suit, the Indemnified
Party may, but will not be obligated to, defend, contest, or otherwise protect
against the same, and make any compromise or settlement thereof, and in such
event, or in the case where the Indemnified Party jointly controls such claim
or
suit, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover its costs thereof
from
the Indemnifying Party, including attorneys’ fees, disbursements and all amounts
paid as a result of such claim or suit or the compromise or settlement
thereof.
(E) The
Indemnified Party shall cooperate and provide such assistance as the
Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in connection with the defense
of the
matter subject to indemnification and in connection with recovering from
any
third parties amounts that the Indemnifying Party may pay or be required
to pay
by way of indemnification hereunder.
(b) The
amount of Losses for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be
computed without regard to any insurance recovery related to such
losses.
