specifically authorized in writing by the Company. No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to preclude
the Consultant from pursuing other projects.
4. The Consultant (including any person or entity
acting for or on behalf of the Consultant) shall not be
liable for any mistakes of fact or errors of judgment for
losses sustained by the Company or any subsidiary or for any
acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by the

this Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries agree to

Indemnified Party, it shall notify the Company within twenty
(20) days after the Indemnified Party receives notice of
such action, suit or such threat. The Company shall have
the right to appoint the Company's counsel to defend such
action, suit or proceeding, provided that such Indemnified

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event
any counsel appointed by the Company shall not be acceptable
to such Indemnified Party, then the Company shall have the
right to appoint alternative counsel for such Indemnified
Party reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, until
such time as acceptable counsel can be appointed. In any
event, the Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, be
entitled to appoint counsel to appear and participate as
co-counsel in the defense thereof. The Indemnified Party,
or its co-counsel, shall promptly supply the Company's
counsel with copies of all documents, pleadings and notices

aforementioned. No indemnified Party shall enter into any
settlement without the prior written consent of the Company,
