liabilities to the extent and only to the extent arising out of third party
claims (the "EXCLUDED CLAIMS"), including, without limitation, reasonable legal
fees and other expenses incurred in investigating or defending against any such
Excluded Claims, if and only to the extent that such Releasing Party is entitled

or manner of action against the Released Parties (or any of them) in
administrative proceedings, in
arbitration, at law, in equity or mixed, for any Released Claim, then such
Releasing Party and its affiliates shall indemnify the applicable Released
Parties (or any of them) in the amount of any final monetary judgment or
settlement (monetary or other) and any related costs (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) entered against, paid or incurred by the
Released Parties (or any of them); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this Section 2(c)
shall not apply to any CFE Releasing Party or CFE Released Party.

of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will
remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.
