Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 8.03(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party.
Third Party Claims. (a) If any third party shall notify any Indemnified Party in writing with respect to any matter involving a claim by such third party (a “Third Party Claim”) which such Indemnified Party believes would give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party under this Article IV, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of such claim and (ii) transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (“Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Third Party Claim, a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim (if any), and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. (b) Upon receipt of a Claim Notice with respect to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by, within (30) days of receipt of the Claim Notice, notifying the Indemnified Party in writing that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, and upon delivery of such notice by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to fully control and settle the proceeding, provided, that, any such settlement or compromise shall be permitted hereunder only with the written consent of the Indemnified Party. (c) If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, including the making of any related counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party Claim or any cross complaint against any person. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to any Third Party Claim, other than any privileged communications between the Indemnifying Party and its counsel, and shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to retain separate co-counsel and participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim assumed by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 4.2(b). (d) In the event of a Third Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense or fails to make such an election within the 30 days of the Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle, compr...
Third Party Claims. If any Losses relate to any action, suit, proceeding or demand instituted against the Indemnified Party by a third party (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Third Party Claim at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party through counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and approved by the Indemnified Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that any compromise or defense shall be conducted in a manner which is reasonable and not contrary to the Indemnified Party's interests and the Indemnified Party shall in all events have a right to veto any compromise or defense that is unreasonable or which would jeopardize in any material respect any assets or business of the Indemnified Party or any of its affiliates or increase the potential liability of, or create a new liability for, the Indemnified Party or any of its affiliates and, provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall in all events indemnify the Indemnified Party and its affiliates against any Losses resulting from the manner in which such Third Party Claim is compromised or defended, including any failure to pay any such claim while such litigation is pending. If the Indemnifying Party does so undertake to compromise and defend a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Claims Notice. Even if the Indemnifying Party undertakes to compromise or defend a claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim for which a claim for indemnification has been made hereunder upon notice to the Indemnifying Party and by waiving any right against the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. Each party agrees in all cases to cooperate with the defending party and its counsel in the compromise of or defending of any such liabilities or claims. In addition, the nondefending party shall at all times be entitled to monitor such defense through the appointment, at its own cost and expense, of advisory counsel of its own choosing.
Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion by any third party of a claim against a Seller Indemnitee which gives rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement (“Third Party Claims”), the Buyer will have the right, at its cost and expense and subject to the terms of this clause 10.3(b), to assume the defence thereof including the appointment and selection of counsel. If the Buyer elects to assume the defence of any Third Party Claim, it shall within 30 days notify the Seller Indemnitee in writing of its intent to do so. In the event the Buyer exercises its right to undertake the defence against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Seller Indemnitee shall cooperate with the reasonable requirements of the Buyer in such defence and make available to the Buyer all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in such party’s possession or under its control relating thereto as may be reasonably required by the Buyer (save to the extent that such information is bound by a duty of confidentiality based on the written opinion of counsel), and the relevant Seller Indemnitee may participate by its own counsel and at its own expense in defense of such Third Party Claim. Except for the settlement of a Third Party Claim which involves the payment of money only which is to be paid in full by the Buyer, no Third Party Claim for which the Buyer has elected to defend may be settled by the Buyer without the prior written consent of the relevant Seller Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being understood that a Seller Indemnitee shall have sole discretion in relation to settlement of any claim involving criminal liability of such Seller Indemnitee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to assume the defence of a Third Party Claim the Buyer shall have agreed to fully indemnify the relevant Seller Indemnitee on demand in respect of any fees, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by such Seller Indemnitee as a result of the relevant Third Party Claim or in connection with any action taken by the Buyer in connection therewith provided that the relevant Seller Indemnitee shall not be prohibited by the foregoing provisions from settling or paying any Third Party Claim immediately if it is under a legal obligation (based on the written opinion of counsel) to do so and such settlement or payment shall not impair its rights to indemnity under this Agreement.
Third Party Claims. (a) If any party entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 7.1 (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any such third person of any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, arbitration, hearing, inquiry, proceeding, complaint, charge or investigation by or before any governmental entity or arbitrator and an appeal from any of the foregoing (any such claim or Action being referred to herein as an “Indemnifiable Claim”) with respect to which another party hereto (an “Indemnifying Party”) is or may be obligated to provide indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing (the “Claim Notice”) of the Indemnifiable Claim; provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve or otherwise affect the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to provide indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that any damages directly resulted or were caused by such failure. (b) The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, and at its expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided, that (A) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party (subject to the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), provided that the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be borne by the Indemnifying Party, and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Indemnifiable Claim without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. So long as the Indemnifying Party is vigorously contesting any such Indemnifiable Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle such claim without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (c) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice that it elects to undertake the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim described therein, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle, or compromise the Indemnifiable Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided, that the Indemnifi...
Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a Party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Target Company, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Parties. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 9.5(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of cou...
Third Party Claims. (i) In the event that the Indemnified Party receives notice or otherwise learns of the assertion by a person or entity who is not a Party hereto or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Party hereto of any claim or the commencement of any action (a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Section 9, the Indemnified Party will give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the Third-Party Claim. Such notification will be given within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third-Party Claim, will be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third party (to the extent then in the possession of the Indemnified Party) and will describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third-Party Claim and the amount of the claimed Damages; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability for Damages or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damages caused by or arising out of such failure. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. During any period in which the Indemnifying Party has not so assumed control of such defense, the Indemnified Party will control such defense. (ii) The Party not controlling such defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense. (iii) The Party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) will keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third-Party Claim and the defense thereof and will consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party will furnish the Controlling Party with such Information as it may have with respect to such Third-Party Claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such Party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and will otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third-Party Claim...
Third Party Claims. If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party, and if such party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article XI, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claims; provided, that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, of the settlement or defense thereof and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; provided, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall promptly be entitled to assume the defense of such action only to the extent the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its indemnity obligation and assumes and holds such Indemnified Party harmless from and against the full amount of any Loss resulting therefrom; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (1) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (2) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (3) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; (4) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be detrimental to or injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects; (5) the amount claimed by the Indemnified Party (if such Indemnified Party is a Parent Indemnitee) exceeds the value of the shares of Parent Preferred Stock then held by the Escrow Agent or (6) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules ...
Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to provide prompt written notice. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in or, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in all respects in such defense; provided that such Indemnifying Party may only assume such defense if it acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify in full the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement; provided, further, that such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Company. In the event the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 10.02(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof.

Third Party Claims. If a claim for indemnity arises in connection with a claim made by a third party (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at any time after receipt of an Indemnification Notice, with respect to such Third Party Claim to assume the defense (which assumption may be made under a reservation of rights) and to control the settlement and compromise of such action or claim at its sole expense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in such defense as reasonably necessary, to enable the Indemnifying Party to conduct its defense, including providing the Indemnifying Party with reasonable access to such records as may be relevant to its defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party provided that the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with reasonable assurances that the Indemnified Party will be fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Party in connection with any such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at its own expense in connection with any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party has elected to defend. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to conduct the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend and/or settle such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any costs, damages, or expenses arising out of any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to keep each other reasonably informed as to the progress of any matter that is the subject of a Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party further agrees to take any and all reasonable steps, including (without limitation) those steps reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party, to mitigate any losses, damages, or expenses with respect to any Third Party Claim under this Agreement and to cooperate with the defense thereof. In the event it is ultimately determined that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification for a Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party has nonetheless assumed the defense of such asserted liability, then the Indemnified Party shall, at such time as it is ultimately determined that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification, reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the reasonable costs and exp...
