the indemnified party shall be solely responsible for, all further defense of
such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding; and (ii) the maximum

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Doctor shall be required to
indemnify AmSurg for any amount in excess of his pro rata portion of the
Purchase Price.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and the Doctors shall not be
obligated to make any indemnification under Section 11.1 unless the aggregate
amount of Losses exceeds $10,000 (the "Basket"), and such indemnification with
respect to such Losses shall be made by Seller and the Doctors only to the
extent of such excess over the Basket.
