under this Section 5 of any claim therefor shall be calculated net of any actual insurance proceeds (net of premiums paid and collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred to obtain such insurance proceeds) received or receivable by the indemnified party on account of such claim for indemnification.
5.7Procedure for Indemnification -- Third Party Claims.
(a)Within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against an indemnified party under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that it is fully and finally adjudicated in an appropriate Proceeding, based on evidence and the law, that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnifying party’s failure to give such notice.
(b)If any Proceeding referred to in Section 5.7(a) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless the indemnifying party is also a party to such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 5 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it shall not be construed to establish or otherwise evidence for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within twenty (20) days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).
(d)Without prejudice to the right of any indemnified party or indemnifying party to contest the jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding is brought by a third party against any indemnified party, and solely for the purposes of complying with the indemnifying party’s obligations under Section 5, the indemnifying party hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding is brought by a third party against any indemnified party for purposes of any claim that an indemnified party may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on such Persons with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.
5.7Procedure for Indemnification -- Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.6.

5.8Exclusive Remedy; Limitation of Liability.
(a)The indemnification obligations of Sellers under this Section 5 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Purchasers available at law or in equity for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other terms, conditions or obligations of Sellers under this Agreement and each Purchaser hereby waives and releases any and all tort claims and causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any tort claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.9 shall limit any Party’s right to seek any remedy on account of fraud by any Party hereto.
(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Party shall have any right or claim against any other Party for exemplary, special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages (except to the extent such damages are directly incurred by an indemnified party in connection with a third-party claim against such indemnified party). Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, but subject to the exceptions herein provided, no legal action sounding in tort or strict liability may be maintained by one Party against any other Party. Except as prohibited by or insistent with any provisions under an applicable insurance policy, including, without limitation, any subrogation rights or obligations, and net of premiums paid and collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred to obtain such insurance proceeds, each Party’s indemnified claims will be offset by any (i) amounts actually recovered by any indemnified party under insurance policies or (ii) or any other recovery received or actually recoverable by any indemnified party from a third party pursuant to any reimbursement arrangements, indemnification rights, contribution agreements, holdback, offset or set-off agreements or similar arrangements with respect to such Losses. The indemnifying party and indemnified party each shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under any applicable insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.
