In the event of such election, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3 below, the defense of all such Discontinued Product Claims shall be managed at the direction of DuPont, and, accordingly, all decisions with respect to any action to be taken, or not to be taken, in connection with any such Discontinued Product Claim shall be in the discretion of DuPont.

The Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle any Third Party Claim with respect to itself over the objection of the Indemnifying Party; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is contesting such claim in good faith and has unconditionally assumed the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have waived any right to be indemnified to the extent of the settlement payment. -35-NEXT PAGE Any such settlement or compromise of, or any final judgment or decree entered on or in, any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party defended or participated in the defense of, in accordance herewith, shall be deemed to have been consented to by, and shall be binding upon, the Indemnified Party as fully as if the Indemnifying Party had assumed the defense thereof and a final judgment or decree had been entered in such suit or action, or with regard to such claim, by a court of competent jurisdiction for the amount of such settlement, compromise, judgment or decree.
