employees, agents and representatives (each, an
"Indemnified Party" and together the "Indemnified
----------------- -----------
Parties") against, and agrees to hold each of them
-------
harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses,
costs, claims, damages,
(Page 10 of 15 pages)
penalties and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
and costs of investigation and litigation) ("Losses")
------
(i) incurred or suffered by them relating to or
arising out of or in connection with any breach of or
any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made
by the Indemnifying Party in this Agreement or any
document delivered by it at the Closing pursuant to
Section 5 hereof or (ii) arising out of or in
connection with any action, suit, inquiry, or
proceeding against or involving any Indemnified Party
as a result of any Indemnifying Party's actions (or
lack thereof) in connection with the negotiation or
execution of this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby, or based upon any
allegation or claim that the Indemnified Party is in
any way responsible or liable for any action (or lack
thereof) of the Indemnifying Party. No person shall
be entitled to indemnification hereunder to the
extent that the act or omission of such person for
which indemnification is claimed arises out of such
person's fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(b) As soon as is reasonably practicable after becoming
aware of a claim for indemnification under this
Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give
notice to the Indemnifying Party of such claim and
the amount the Indemnified Party will be entitled to
receive hereunder from the Indemnifying Party;
provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to
give notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party
of its obligations hereunder except to the extent (if
any) that the Indemnifying Party shall have been
prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party agrees
that it has an indemnification obligation but objects
that it is obligated to pay only a lesser amount, the
Indemnified Party shall nevertheless be entitled to
recover promptly from the Indemnifying Party the
lesser amount, without prejudice to the Indemnified
Party's claim for the difference.
(c) After receiving a claim as set forth above, the
Indemnifying Party may, at its own expense,
(i) participate in the defense of any claim, suit,
action or proceeding and (ii) except in the case of a
claim indemnification for which is available pursuant
to clause (ii) of paragraph (a) above, as to which
this clause (ii) shall be inapplicable, upon notice
to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party's
delivering to the Indemnified Party a written
agreement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to
indemnification for all Losses arising out of such
claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense
thereof; provided, however, that (x) the Indemnifying
Party's counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party, and (y) the Indemnifying Party
shall thereafter consult with the Indemnified Party
upon the Indemnified Party's reasonable request for
such consultation from time to time with respect to
such claim, suit, action or proceeding. If the
Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the
duty) to participate in the defense thereof and to
employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the
counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party. If,
however, the Indemnified Party reasonably
(Page 11 of 15 pages)
determines in its judgment that representation by the
Indemnifying Party's counsel of both the Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party would present such
counsel with a conflict of interest, then such
Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel to
represent or defend it in any such claim, action,
suit or proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall
pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such
separate counsel. Whether or not the Indemnifying
Party chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim,
suit, action or proceeding, all of the parties hereto
shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution
thereof.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11 to the
contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the
Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent
of the other, settle or compromise any claim or
permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment
unless the claimant and such party provide to such
other party an unqualified release from all liability
in respect of such claim. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if a settlement offer solely for money
damages is made by the applicable third party
claimant, and the Indemnifying Party notifies the
Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying
Party's willingness to accept the settlement offer
and pay the amount called for by such offer, and the
Indemnified Party declines to accept such offer, the
Indemnified Party may continue to contest such claim,
free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party,
and the amount of any ultimate liability with respect
to such claim that the Indemnifying Party has an
obligation to pay hereunder shall be limited to the
lesser of (i) the amount of the settlement offer that
the Indemnified Party declined to accept or (ii) the
aggregate Losses of the Indemnified Party with
respect to such claim. If the Indemnifying Party
makes any payment on any claim, the Indemnifying
Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such
payment, to all rights and remedies of the
Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other
claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such
claim.
(e) In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not
elect to assume the defense of any claim, suit,
action or proceeding, then any failure of the
Indemnified Party to defend or to participate in the
defense of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding
or to cause the same to be done, shall not relieve
the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder.

heirs, personal representatives, successors, assigns and affiliates.
