respect to matters as to which notice has been received in accordance with Section 9.1(b). All covenants of the parties hereto, to the extent not otherwise fully performed at Closing, will survive the Closing.

(b) No party hereto shall have any indemnification obligation pursuant to this Article IX or otherwise in respect of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement unless it shall have received from the party seeking indemnification written notice of the existence of the claim for or in respect of which indemnification in respect of such representation, warranty or covenant is being sought. Such notice shall set forth with reasonable specificity (i) the basis under this Agreement, and the facts that otherwise form the basis of such claim, (ii) the estimate of the amount of such claim (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim) and an explanation of the calculation of such estimate, including a statement of any significant assumptions employed therein, and (iii) the date on and manner in which the party delivering such notice became aware of the existence of such claim.

Section 9.2. Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article IX, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands assessments, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, settlements, penalties, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), of any nature whatsoever (collectively, “Damages”), asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by Buyer, directly or indirectly, by reason of or resulting from any breach by Seller of (i) Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Article III or (ii) Seller’s covenants contained in this Agreement.

Section 9.3. Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article IX, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Damages, asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by Seller, directly or indirectly, by reason of or resulting from (i) any breach by Buyer of its representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement, (ii) the Assumed Obligations or (iii) the Partnership and its ownership and operation of its properties and other assets.

Section 9.4. Indemnification Proceedings. In the event that any claim or demand for which a party (an “Indemnifying Party”), would be liable to the another party under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 (an “Indemnified Party”) is asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnified Party by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, but the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IX, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such claim or demand is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days from receipt of the above notice from the Indemnified Party (in this Section 9.4, the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand; provided, that the Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to and during the Notice Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such claim or demand, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of such claim or demand (or fails to give notice to the Indemnified Party during the

-11-

Notice Period), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such claim or demand with counsel of its own choice, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the claim or demand is asserted against both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and based on the advice of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party it is determined that there is a conflict of interest which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for paying the reasonable expenses of separate counsel for the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent all of the Indemnified Parties, regardless of the number of Indemnified Parties. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of such claim or demand, (i) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Section 9.5. Exclusivity. The parties hereto agree that after Closing, in relation to any breach, default, or nonperformance of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement made or entered into by a party hereto pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate, instrument, or document delivered pursuant hereto, the only relief and remedy available to the other party hereto in respect of said breach, default, or nonperformance shall be Damages, but only to the extent properly claimable hereunder and subject to the terms and provisions of this Article IX; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or modify the parties’ rights under Section 10.8.

Section 9.6. Indemnification Despite Negligence. It is the express intention of the parties hereto that each party to be indemnified pursuant to this Article IX shall be indemnified and held harmless from and against all Damages as to which indemnity is provided for under this Article IX, notwithstanding that any such Damages arise out of or result from the ordinary, strict, sole, or contributory negligence of such party and regardless of whether any other party (including the other parties to this Agreement) is or is not also negligent. The parties hereto acknowledge that the foregoing complies with the express negligence rule and is conspicuous.
