Promptly after the receipt by Buyer or the Company and/or the Sellers

obligated to provide indemnification hereunder (the "Indemnifying Party"). Such
notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis and amount, if
ascertainable, of any claim that would be based upon the Circumstance. The
failure to give such notice promptly shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
indemnification obligations under this Agreement, unless the Indemnified Party
establishes that the Indemnifying Party either had knowledge of the Circumstance
or was not prejudiced by the failure to give notice of the Circumstance. The
Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to compromise or defend
the claim, at its own expense and by its own counsel, and otherwise control any
such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnified Party, provided
that any such compromise or control shall be subject to obtaining the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any costs of settlement
incurred without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If any
Indemnifying Party undertakes to compromise or defend any asserted liability, it
shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the
Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its
counsel in the compromise of or defense against any such asserted liability. All
costs and expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation shall be borne
by the Indemnifying Party, provided such costs and expenses have been previously
approved by the Indemnifying Party. In any event, the Indemnified Party shall
have the right at its own expense to participate in the defense of an asserted
liability.

therein shall be entitled to payment from the other party hereto of its
reasonable counsel fees and disbursements in an amount judicially determined.
