Payment is not a condition precedent to recovery of indemnification for Losses.
15

Subject to the provisions of this Article VII, Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its affiliates, parents, stockholders, subsidiaries, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents, successors and assigns, (such indemnified persons are collectively hereinafter referred to as “Seller Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against any and all Losses that any Seller Indemnified Person may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to arising out of or due to: (a) the use of the Assets after the Closing Date; (b) the nonfulfillment of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of Buyer under this Agreement or any Schedule hereto; (c) any inaccuracy of any representation of Buyer in this Agreement or any Schedule hereto; (d) the breach of any warranty or covenant of Buyer in this Agreement or any Schedule hereto; (e) any and all environmental liabilities relating to the Assets incurred after the Closing Date; (f) the Assumed Liabilities, or (g) liabilities for Taxes of Buyer for all taxable periods or portions thereof ending on or after the Closing Date.
7.3 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The several representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and Buyer Indemnified Persons’ right to indemnity in accordance with this Article VII shall survive the Closing Date and shall remain in full force and effect for 18 months thereafter, at which time all such claims shall terminate except such claims notice of which has been given to Seller prior to the expiration of such 18-month period; provided, however, that the representations and warranties (and related right to indemnity) set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 5.1 and 5.2 shall survive indefinitely, and the representations and warranties (and related right to indemnity) set forth in Section 4.7 shall survive for the length of the applicable statute of limitations.

If such event involves (a) any claim or (b) the commencement of any action or proceeding by a third person, Claimant shall give Respondent written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding as provided above. Delay or failure to so notify Respondent shall only relieve Respondent of its obligation to the extent, if at all, that Respondent is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. Respondent shall have a period of 30 days within which to respond thereto. If Respondent accepts responsibility or does not respond within such 30 day period, then Respondent shall be obligated to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by counsel chosen by Respondent, which counsel shall be acceptable to such Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as the case may be, such matter, and Respondent shall provide Claimant with such assurances as may be reasonably required by Claimant to assure that Respondent will assume and be responsible for the entire liability at issue.

The Claimant agrees to cooperate with Respondent and its counsel in the defense against any such asserted liability. In any event, Claimant shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of such asserted liability. Any compromise of such asserted liability by Respondent shall require the prior written consent of Claimant, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld and in the event Claimant defends any such asserted liability, then any compromise of such asserted liability by Claimant shall require the prior written consent of Respondent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
