indemnity in respect of the breach of any representation or warranty
or covenant contained herein may be made unless notice of such claim
has been given.
(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, by notice to the
Indemnified Party given not later than 30 days after receipt of the
notice described in subsection (a) to assume the control of the
defence, compromise or settlement of the claim or demand, provided
that such assumption shall, by its terms, be without cost to the
Indemnified Party and provided the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in
writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party in
accordance with the terms contained in this Section in respect of that
claim or demand.
(c) Upon the assumption of control of any claim or demand by the
Indemnifying Party as set out in subsection (b), the Indemnifying
Party shall diligently proceed with the defence, compromise or
settlement of the claim or demand at its sole expense, including, if
necessary, employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party and, in connection therewith, the Indemnified Party
shall co-operate fully, but at the expense of the Indemnifying Party
with respect to any out-of-pocket expenses incurred, to make available
to the Indemnifying Party all pertinent information and witnesses
under the Indemnified Party's control, make such assignments and take
such other steps as in the opinion of counsel for the Indemnifying
Party are reasonably necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to
conduct such defence. The Indemnified Party shall also have the right
to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defence of any claim
or demand at its own expense.
(d) The final determination of any claim or demand pursuant to this
Section, including all related costs and expenses, will be binding and
conclusive upon the parties as to the validity or invalidity, as the
case may be, of such claim or demand against the Indemnifying Party.
(e) Should the Indemnifying Party fail to give notice to the Indemnified
Party as provided in subsection (b), the Indemnified Party shall be
entitled to make such settlement of the claim or demand as in its sole
discretion may appear advisable, and such settlement or any other
final determination of the claim or demand shall be binding upon the
Indemnifying Party.
