8.1 Indemnification by Capaciti and Seller. Capaciti and Seller agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its affiliates against any and all claims, demands, losses, costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities and damages, including interest, penalties and attorney's fees and costs, incurred by Buyer or any of its affiliates arising, resulting from, or relating to any and all liabilities of Capaciti incurred prior to the Closing or relating to the Capaciti Stock, any misrepresentation of a material fact or omission to disclose a material fact made by Capaciti or Seller in this Agreement, in any exhibits to this Agreement or in any other document furnished or to be furnished by Capaciti or Seller under this Agreement, or any breach of, or failure by Capaciti or Seller to perform, any of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or in any exhibit or other document furnished or to be furnished by Capaciti or Seller under this Agreement.
8.2 Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Capaciti and Seller against any and all claims, demands, losses, costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities and damages, including interest, penalties and attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Capaciti or Seller arising, resulting from or relating to any breach of, or failure by Buyer to perform, any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or in any exhibit or other document furnished or to be furnished by Buyer under this Agreement.
8.3 Procedure for Indemnification Claims.
(a) Whenever any parties become aware that a claim (an "Underlying Claim") has arisen entitling them to seek indemnification under Section 8 of this Agreement, such parties (the "Indemnified Parties") shall promptly send a notice ("Notice") to the parties liable for such indemnification (the "Indemnifying Parties") of the right to indemnification (the "Indemnity Claim"); provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Parties will relieve the Indemnifying Parties from liability under this Agreement with respect to such Indemnity Claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Parties results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Parties of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Parties with respect to the Underlying Claim. Any Notice pursuant to this Section 8.3(a) shall set forth in reasonable detail, to the extent then available, the basis for such Indemnity Claim and an estimate of the amount of damages arising therefore.
(b) If an Indemnity Claim does not result from or arise in connection with any Underlying Claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the Indemnifying Parties will have thirty
-12-
(30) calendar days following receipt of the Notice to issue a written response to the Indemnified Parties, indicating the Indemnifying Parties' intention to either (i) contest the Indemnity Claim or (ii) accept the Indemnity Claim as valid. The Indemnifying Parties' failure to provide such a written response within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed to be an acceptance of the Indemnity Claim as valid. In the event that an Indemnity Claim is accepted as valid, the Indemnifying Parties shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days thereafter, pay the damages incurred by the Indemnified Parties in respect of the Underlying Claim in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts specified by the Indemnified Parties. To the extent appropriate, payments for indemnifiable damages made pursuant to this Agreement will be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
(c) In the event an Indemnity Claim results from or arises in connection with any Underlying Claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the Indemnifying Parties shall have fifteen (15) calendar days following receipt of the Notice to send a Notice to the Indemnified Parties of their election to, at their sole cost and expense, assume the defense of any such Underlying Claim or legal proceeding; provided that such Notice of election shall contain a confirmation by the Indemnifying Parties of their obligation to hold harmless the Indemnified Parties with respect to damages arising from such Underlying Claim. The failure by the Indemnifying Parties to elect to assume the defense of any such Underlying Claim within such fifteen (15) day period shall entitle the Indemnified Parties to undertake control of the defense of the Underlying Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Parties in such manner as the Indemnified Parties may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling the Underlying Claim. The parties controlling the defense of the Underlying Claim shall not, however, settle or compromise such Underlying Claim without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The non-controlling parties shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with their own counsel and at their own expense.
(d) The Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties will cooperate reasonably, fully and in good faith with each other, at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Parties, in connection with the defense, compromise or settlement of any Underlying Claim including, without limitation, by making available to the other parties all pertinent information and witnesses within their reasonable control.
9. Equitable Relief.
9.1 Damages Inadequate. Each party acknowledges that it would be impossible to measure in money the damages to the other party if there is a failure to comply with any covenants and provisions of this Agreement, and agrees that in the event of any breach of any covenant or provision, the other party to this Agreement will not have an adequate remedy at law.
9.2 Equitable Relief. It is therefore agreed that the other party to this Agreement who is entitled to the benefit of the covenants and provisions of this Agreement which have been breached, in addition to any other rights or remedies which they may have, will be entitled to immediate injunctive or other equitable relief to enforce such covenants and provisions, and that in the event that any such action or proceeding is brought in equity to enforce them, the defaulting or breaching party will not urge a defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

12. Waivers.
If any party at any time waives any rights hereunder resulting from any breach by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, such waiver is not to be construed as a continuing waiver of other breaches of the same or other provisions of this Agreement. Resort to any remedies referred to herein will not be construed as a waiver of any other rights and remedies to which such party is entitled under this Agreement or otherwise.
13. Successors and Assigns.
Each covenant and representation of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the parties, their personal representatives, assigns and other successors in interest.
14. Entire and Sole Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all other agreements, representations, warranties, statements, promises and undertakings, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written agreement signed by the parties against whom the amendment is sought to be enforced. The parties acknowledge that as of the date of the execution of this Agreement, that any and all other agreements either written or verbal will be terminated and be of no further force or effect.
15. Governing Law.
This Agreement will be governed by the laws of Texas without giving effect to applicable conflict of law provisions. With respect to any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each party agrees that it will be filed in and heard by the state or federal courts with jurisdiction to hear such suits located in Bexar County, Texas.
16. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts will be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts will constitute but one and the same instrument.

17. Assignment.
Except in the case of an affiliate of the Buyer, this Agreement may not be assignable by any party without prior written consent of the other parties.
18. Remedies.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of the remedies set forth in this Agreement are intended to be exclusive, and each party will have all other remedies now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. The election of any one or more remedies will not constitute a waiver of the right to pursue other available remedies.
19. Section Headings.
The section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience only, are not a part of this Agreement and will not be used in construing it.
20. Severability.
In the event that any provision or any part of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision or part of this Agreement.
21. Notices.
Each notice or other communication hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given on the earlier of (i) the date on which such notice or other communication is actually received by the intended recipient thereof, or (ii) the date five (5) days after the date such notice or other communication is mailed by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid) to the intended recipient at the following address (or at such other address as the intended recipient will have specified in a written notice given to the other parties hereto):
