Parent, the Company and Seller, have the right to rely fully upon the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company and Seller,
and Buyer and Parent respectively, contained in this Agreement, or listed or
disclosed on any Schedule hereto or in any instrument delivered in connection
with or pursuant to any of the foregoing. All such representations, warranties,

representations and warranties of the Company and Seller, and Parent
respectively, contained in this Agreement, on any Schedule hereto or in any
instrument delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall
terminate and expire twelve (12) months after the date of Closing; provided,
however, that liability any party shall not terminate as to any specific claim
or claims which arise or result from or are related to a Claim for
fraud.
SECTION
6.2 Notice and
Opportunity to Defend Third Party Claims.
(a)
Within ten (10) days following receipt by any party hereto (the "Indemnitee") of
notice of any demand, claim, circumstance or Tax audit which would or might give
rise to a claim, or the commencement (or threatened commencement) of any action,
proceeding or investigation that may result in a Loss (an "Asserted Liability"),
the Indemnitee shall give notice thereof (the "Claims Notice") to
the party or parties obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to Sections
6.2, or 6.3 (collectively, the "Indemnifying Party").
The Claims Notice shall describe the Asserted Liability in reasonable
detail and shall indicate the amount
(estimated, if necessary, and to the extent feasible) of the Loss that has been
or may be suffered by the Indemnitee.
(b) The
Indemnifying Party may elect to defend, at its own expense and with its own
counsel, any Asserted Liability unless: (i) the Asserted Liability includes a
Claim seeking an Order for injunction or other equitable or declaratory relief
against the Indemnitee, in which case the Indemnitee may at its own cost and
expense and at its option defend the portion of the Asserted Liability seeking
equitable or declaratory relief against the Indemnitee, or (ii) the Indemnitee
shall have reasonably, and in good faith, after consultation with the
Indemnifying Party, concluded that: (x) there is a conflict of interest between
the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party which could prevent or negatively
influence the Indemnifying Party from impartially or adequately conducting such
defense; or (y) the Indemnitee shall have one or more defenses not available to
the Indemnifying Party but only to the extent such defense cannot legally be
asserted by the Indemnifying Party on behalf of the Indemnitee. If the

(10) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Asserted Liability so requires)
notify the Indemnitee of its intent to do so, and the Indemnitee shall
cooperate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, in the defense of such
Asserted Liability. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Asserted
Liability, is not permitted to defend the Asserted Liability by reason of the
first sentence of this Section 6.4(b), fails to notify the Indemnitee of its
election as herein provided or contests its obligation to indemnify under this
Agreement with respect to such Asserted Liability, the Indemnitee may pay,
compromise or defend such Asserted Liability at the sole cost and expense of the
Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Indemnifying
Party nor the Indemnitee may settle or compromise any claim over the reasonable
written objection of the other, provided that the Indemnitee may settle or
compromise any claim as to which the Indemnifying Party has failed to notify the
Indemnitee of its election under this Section 6.4(b) or as to which the
Indemnifying Party is contesting its indemnification obligations hereunder. If
the Indemnifying Party desires to accept a reasonable, final and complete
settlement of an Asserted Liability so that such Indemnitee's Loss is paid in
full and the Indemnitee refuses to consent to such settlement, then the
Indemnifying Party's liability to the Indemnitee shall be limited to the amount
offered in the settlement. The Indemnifying Party will exercise good faith in
accepting any reasonable, final and complete settlement of an Asserted
Liability. In the event the Indemnifying Party elects to defend any Asserted
Liability, the Indemnitee may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of
such Asserted Liability. In the event the Indemnifying Party is not permitted by
the Indemnitee to defend the Asserted Liability, it may nevertheless participate
at its own expense in the defense of such Asserted Liability. If the
Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Asserted Liability, the Indemnitee
shall make available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other
documents within its control that are necessary or appropriate for such defense.
Any Losses of any Indemnitee for which an Indemnifying Party is liable for
indemnification hereunder shall be paid upon written demand
therefor.
SECTION

Indemnification.
