relating to (i)any breach of any, or any false, incorrect or misleading,
representation or warranty that is made by Seller herein or in any Exhibit,
Schedule, certificate or other document delivered to Purchaser by Seller with

Agreement or (ii) any breach of any agreements and covenants made by Purchaser
herein or in any Exhibit, Schedule, certificate or other document delivered to
Seller by or on behalf of Purchaser in connection with this Agreement.
6.4 Procedure for Claims.
(a) Notice of Claim. Promptly, but in any event within 30 days
after obtaining knowledge of any claim or demand which may give rise to, or
could reasonably give rise to, a claim for indemnification hereunder (any such
claim an "Indemnification Claim"), the party or parties entitled to
indemnification hereunder (the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notice to
the party or parties subject to indemnification obligations therefor (the
"Indemnifying Party") of such Indemnification Claim (a "Notice of Claim"). A
Notice of Claim shall be given with respect to all Indemnification Claims.
However, the failure to timely give a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to
the Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is not
prejudiced by such failure. The Notice of Claim shall set forth the amount (or a
reasonable estimate) of the loss, damage or expense suffered, or which may be
suffered, by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Indemnification Claim and
a brief description of the facts giving rise to such Indemnification Claim. The
Indemnified Party shall furnish to the Indemnifying Party such information (in
reasonable detail) as the Indemnified Party may have with respect to such
Indemnification Claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or
13
other pleading which may have been served on it and any written claim, demand,
invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same).
(b) Third Party Claims.
(i) If the claim or demand set forth in the Notice of
Claim is a claim or demand asserted by a third party (a "Third Party Claim"),
the Indemnifying Party shall have 15 days (or such shorter period if an answer
or other response or filing with respect to the pleadings served by the third
party is required prior to the 15th day) after the date of receipt by the
Indemnifying Party of the Notice of Claim (the "Notice Date") to notify the
Indemnified Party in writing of the election by the Indemnifying Party to defend
the Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party.
(ii) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend a
Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified party
shall make available to the Indemnifying Party and its agents and
representatives all records and other materials in its possession which are
reasonably required in the defense of the Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying
Party shall pay any expenses payable in connection with the defense of the Third
Party Claim as they are incurred (whether incurred by the Indemnified Party or
Indemnifying Party).
(iii) In no event may the Indemnifying Party settle
or compromise any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party's consent,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(iv) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend a
Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in
the defense of the Third Party Claim, at the Indemnified Party's expense (and
without the right to indemnification for such expense under this Agreement).
However, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified
Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (a) the use of the
counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party
would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (b) the parties to such
proceeding include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and
there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are
different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (c)
within 10 days after being advised by the Indemnifying Party of the identity of
counsel to be retained to represent the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party
shall have objected to the retention of such counsel for valid reasons (which
shall be stated in a written notice to Indemnifying Party), and the Indemnifying
Party shall not have retained different counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party; or (d) the Indemnifying Party shall authorize the Indemnified
Party to retain separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
(v) If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to
defend a Third Party Claim, or does not defend a Third Party Claim in good
faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, in addition to any other
right or remedy it may have hereunder, at the sole and exclusive expense of the
Indemnifying Party, to defend such Third Party Claim.
(vi) To the extent that an Indemnified Party recovers
on a Third Party Claim, the amount of such recovery (after deduction of all
costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Third Party Claim) shall
reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the indemnification obligation otherwise owing by the
Indemnifying Party.
(c) Cooperation in Defense. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of a Third Party Claim.
Subject to the foregoing, (i) the
14
Indemnified Party shall not have any obligation to participate in the defense of
or to defend any Third Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnified Party's defense of
or its participation in the defense of any Third Party Claim shall not in any
way diminish or lessen its right to indemnification as provided in this
Agreement.
