losses, claims, obligations, demands, assessments, penalties, liabilities,
costs, damages, attorneys' fees and expenses (collectively, "Damages"), asserted
against or incurred by them by reason of or resulting from (i) any breach by ADT
of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein or in any
agreement executed pursuant hereto (including but not limited to the obligations
under Section 4.01 hereof) or (ii) the failure of DVD to pay or perform any of
its liabilities or obligations under Section 4.02 hereof or arising on or after
the Effective Date and (b) Ultrak hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
ADT and ADT's officers, directors, and affiliates harmless from and against all
Damages asserted against or incurred by them by reason of or resulting from (i)
any breach by Ultrak of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained
herein or in any agreement executed pursuant hereto or (ii) any liability or
obligation of DVD or VVI for any act or activity of DVD or VVI that occurred

Sections 4.01 or 4.02 hereof.
-9-
10
6.02. Conditions of Indemnification. The indemnity obligations under
Section 6.01 hereof shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) Within 20 days (or such earlier time as might be required
to avoid prejudicing the indemnifying party's position) after receipt
of notice of commencement of any action evidenced by service of
process, or other legal pleading, or with reasonable promptness after
the assertion in writing of any claim by a third party of a matter for
which a party (the "indemnified party") is entitled to indemnification
under Section 6.01, the indemnified party shall give the other party
(the " indemnifying party") written notice thereof together with a copy
of such claim, process, or other legal pleading, and the indemnifying
party shall have the right to undertake the defense thereof by
representatives of its own choosing and at its own expense; provided,
however, that the indemnified party may participate in the defense with
counsel of its own choice and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified
party (which opinion must be furnished in writing to the indemnified
party), a potential conflict of interest shall exist as between the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party such that it would not be
in the best interest of the indemnified party to be represented by the
same counsel as the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall be
entitled to retain separate counsel, all at the expense of the
indemnified party; provided, however, that in no event shall the
indemnifying party be required to pay for more than one counsel for the
indemnified party in any lawsuit, action, proceeding, or claim
(including any related lawsuits, actions, proceedings, or claims).
(b) If the indemnifying party, by the 20th day after receipt
of notice of any such claim (or, if earlier, by the 10th day preceding
the day on which an answer or other pleading must be served in order to
prevent judgment by default in favor of the person asserting such
claim), does not notify in writing the indemnified party that the
indemnifying party shall defend against such claim, then the
indemnified party may (upon further notice to the indemnifying party)
undertake the defense, compromise, or settlement of such claim on
behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party and at
the indemnifying party's expense, subject to the right of the
indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim at any time
prior to settlement, compromise, or final determination thereof.
(c) Anything in this Section 6.02 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the indemnifying party shall not settle any claim
without the consent of the indemnified party unless such
-10-
11
settlement involves only the payment of money and the claimant provides
to the indemnified party a full and complete release from all liability
in respect of such claim. If the settlement of the claim involves more
than the payment of money, then the indemnifying party shall not settle
the claim without the prior written consent of the indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) Each of Ultrak and ADT will cooperate with all reasonable
requests of the other pursuant to Section 6.01 and this Section 6.02.
6.03. Remedies Not Exclusive. The remedies provided in this Article VI

parties agree to arbitrate disputes pursuant to Section 7.09.

operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by such party.

connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, in connection with the fees

illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and
this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable provision were never a part hereof; the remaining provisions
hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the
