13.4 THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the
following procedures shall be applicable with respect to indemnification for
third party Claims. Promptly after receipt by the party seeking indemnification
hereunder (hereinafter referred to as the "Indemnitee") of notice of the
commencement of any (a) Tax audit or proceeding for the assessment of Tax by any
taxing authority or any other proceeding likely to result in the imposition of a
Tax liability or obligation, or (b) any action or the assertion of any Claim,
liability or obligation by a third party (whether by legal process or
otherwise), against which Claim, liability or obligation the other party to this
Agreement (hereinafter the "Indemnitor") is, or may be, required under this
Agreement to indemnify such Indemnitee, the Indemnitee will, if a Claim thereon
is to be, or may be, made against the Indemnitor, notify the Indemnitor in
writing of the commencement or assertion thereof and give the Indemnitor a copy
of such Claim, process and all legal pleadings. The Indemnitor shall have the
right to participate in the defense of such action with counsel of reputable
standing. The Indemnitor shall have the right to assume the defense of such
action unless such action (i) may result in injunctions or other equitable
remedies in respect of the Indemnitee or its business; (ii) may result in
liabilities which, taken with other then existing Claims under this Article
XIII, would not be fully indemnified hereunder; or (iii) may have an adverse
impact on the business or financial condition of the Indemnitee after the
Closing Date (including an effect on the Tax liabilities, earnings or ongoing
business relationships of the Indemnitee). The Indemnitor and the Indemnitee
shall cooperate in the defense of such Claims. In the case that the Indemnitor
shall assume or participate in the defense of such audit, assessment or other
proceeding as provided herein, the Indemnitee shall make available to the
Indemnitor all relevant records and take such other action and sign such
documents as are necessary to defend such audit, assessment or other proceeding
in a timely manner.
(b) Upon judgment, determination, settlement or compromise of
any third party Claim, the Indemnitor shall pay promptly on behalf of the
Indemnitee, and/or to the Indemnitee in reimbursement of any amount theretofore
required to be paid by it, the amount so determined by judgment, determination,
settlement or compromise, unless in the case of a judgment an appeal is made
from the judgment, plus all other Claims of the Indemnitee with respect thereto
(including legal fees and expenses). If the Indemnitor desires to appeal from an
adverse judgment, then the Indemnitor shall post and pay the cost of the
security or bond to stay execution of the judgment pending appeal. Upon the
payment in full by the Indemnitor of such amounts, the Indemnitor shall succeed
to the rights of such Indemnitee, to the extent not waived in settlement,
against the third party who made such third party Claim.
(c) Prior to paying or settling any Claim against which an
Indemnitor is, or may be, obligated under this Agreement to indemnify an
Indemnitee, the Indemnitee must first supply the Indemnitor with a copy of a
final court judgment or decree holding the Indemnitee liable on such claim or
failing such judgment or decree, and must first receive the written approval of
the terms and conditions of such settlement from the Indemnitor. An Indemnitor
shall have the right to settle any Claim against it or as to which it has
assumed the defense, subject to the prior written approval of the Indemnitee,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld provided that such settlement
involves only the payment of a fixed sum which the Indemnitor is obligated to
pay and does not include any admission of liability or other such similar
admissions by or related to Indemnitee with respect to such Claim.
(d) An Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own
counsel in any case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of the Indemnitee unless: (i) the employment of such counsel shall have
been authorized in writing by the Indemnitor in connection with the defense of
such action or Claim; (ii) the Indemnitor shall not have employed, or is
prohibited under this Section 13.4 from employing, counsel in the defense of
such action or Claim; or (iii) such Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be defenses available to it which are contrary to, or
inconsistent with, those available to the Indemnitor, in any of which events
such fees and expenses of not more than one additional counsel for the
indemnified parties shall be borne by the Indemnitor.
