Page 6 of 11 |
| 4.3. | Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification by any Vemanti Indemnified Person shall be asserted and resolved as set forth in this Section 4.3. Any Vemanti Indemnified Person seeking indemnity pursuant to Section 4.1 shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing the party of such demand for indemnification. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the personal delivery or mailing of such notice (the "Notice Period") to notify the Vemanti Indemnified Person whether or not it desires to defend the Vemanti Indemnified Person against such claim or demand with respect to a claim or demand based on a Third Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Vemanti Indemnified Person within the Notice Period that, with respect to a Third Party Claim, it desires to defend the Vemanti Indemnified Person against such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Vemanti Indemnified Person at the Indemnifying Party's sole cost and expense and with counsel (plus local counsel if appropriate) reasonably satisfactory to the Vemanti Indemnified Person. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Vemanti Indemnified Person, compromise or consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement agreement with respect to any action or proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought under Section 4.1 (whether or not the Vemanti Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party thereto), unless such compromise, consent or settlement involves only the payment of money damages for which the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Vemanti Indemnified Person hereunder. If the right to assume and control the defense is exercised, the I Vemanti Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in, but not control, such defense at its own expense and the Indemnifying Party's indemnity obligations shall be deemed not to include attorneys' fees and litigation expenses incurred in such participation by the Vemanti Indemnified Person after the assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Vemanti Indemnified Persons collectively shall be entitled to employ one firm or separate counsel (plus local counsel if appropriate) to represent the Vemanti Indemnified Persons if, in the opinion of counsel to each Vemanti Indemnified Person seeking to employ such separate counsel, a conflict of interest between such Vemanti Indemnified Person or Persons and the Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such claim and in each such event, the fees, costs and expenses of one such firm or separate counsel (plus one local counsel per jurisdiction if appropriate) shall be paid in full by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party has not elected to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim within the Notice Period, the Vemanti Indemnified Person may defend and settle the claim for the account and cost of the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Vemanti Indemnified Person will not settle the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Vemanti Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and, subject to obtaining proper assurances of confidentiality and privilege, shall make available to the Indemnifying Party all pertinent information under the control of the Vemanti Indemnified Person. |

| 4.4. | Exclusive Remedy; Survival.
