increase any benefits otherwise payable to any person or entity, including without limitation, any employee, director, officer or affiliate; or

(b)
Prior to the Closing, any written news releases or public disclosure by any party hereto pertaining to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, will be submitted to the other party for its review and approval prior to such release or disclosure, provided, however, that;

(b)
From and after the Closing of this Agreement, Farmhouse agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Westgate and Merger Sub and each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Closing a director or executive officer of Westgate or Merger Sub, against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, demands, liabilities, damages and deficiencies, including interest and penalties, incurred or suffered in connection with any claim action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, arising out of matters existing or occurring prior to the Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing, which is based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such person is a party to this Agreement or is or was a director or officer of Westgate or Merger Sub including, without limitation, all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, judgments or settlement amounts based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to the fullest extent that Westgate and Merger Sub could have been permitted under applicable state laws and its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other agreements in effect on the date hereof, to indemnify such individual.
