The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 6(d)(ii), pay, compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim and receive indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, all records relating to such Third-Party Claim and management employees of the non-def ending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.
(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 6(d)(ii). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer
