Third Party Claims. The obligation of an indemnifying party to ------------------ indemnify another party to this Agreement under the provisions of this Article with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by Persons not parties to this Agreement (including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) The indemnified party shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim for indemnification, which notice shall state the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known, provided, however, that no delay on the part of the indemnified party in giving notice shall relieve the indemnifying party of any obligation to indemnify unless (and then solely to the extent that) the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such delay.
(b) If any action, suit or proceeding (a "Legal Action") is brought against an indemnified party with respect to which the indemnifying party may have an obligation to indemnify, the Legal Action shall be defended by the indemnifying party and such defense shall include all proceedings and appeals which counsel for the indemnified party shall reasonably deem appropriate.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous subsection of this Article, until the indemnifying party shall have assumed the defense of any such Legal Action, the defense shall be handled by the indemnified party. Furthermore, (i) if the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; (ii) if the indemnifying party fails to provide the indemnified party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party has sufficient financial resources to defend and fulfill its indemnification obligation with respect to the Legal Action; (iii) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or (iv) if a judgment against the indemnified party will, in the good faith opinion of the indemnified party, establish a custom or precedent which will be materially adverse to the best interests of its continuing business, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of the Legal Action and the defense shall be handled by the indemnified party...
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).

Third Party Claims. In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇ becomes aware of a Third-Party Claim that Buyer in good faith believes may result in a claim for Losses by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party, Buyer shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Buyer shall be entitled to settle such Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided that any settlement of a Third-Party Claim without the consent of the relevant Indemnifying Party shall not impose criminal liability or damages. The costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with defense, enforcement, settlement, or resolution (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees, and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Losses for which Buyer shall be entitled to receive indemnification pursuant to an Indemnification Claim made hereunder, and such costs and expenses shall constitute Losses subject to indemnification under Section 7.2 regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that such Third-Party Claim arose out of, resulted from, or was in connection with a matter listed in Section 7.2. Seller shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices, and communications with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Party, subject to execution by Seller of Buyer’s (and, if required, such third party’s) standard non-disclosure agreement to the extent that such materials contain confidential or proprietary information, except that, in the case of a Tax Contest, Seller shall only have the right to receive copies of any written correspondence from a Tax Authority and the failure to provide any such copies shall not relieve Seller or Seller Parent of any obligation or liability to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that Seller demonstrates that it is materially and adversely affected thereby. Unless otherwise consented to in writing in advance by Buyer in its sole discretion, Seller and its respective Affiliates may not participate in any Third-Party Claim or any action related to such Third-Party Claim (including any discussions or negotiations in connection with the settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof); provided that Seller shall have the right to have their reasonable comments and feedback with respect to the conduct of the defense of any Third-Party Claim co...
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...

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 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 losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, Actions, judgments, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs or expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification hereunder and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers (each, a "Loss") that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

Third Party Claims. With respect to third party claims, if within twenty (20) days after receiving the notice described in clause (a) above the indemnifying party gives (i) written notice to the indemnified party stating that (A) it would be liable under the provisions hereof for indemnity in the amount of such claim if such claim were successful and (B) that it disputes and intends to defend against such claim, liability or expense at its own cost and expense and (ii) provides reasonable assurance to the indemnified party that such claim will be promptly paid in full if required, then counsel for the defense shall be selected by the indemnifying party (subject to the consent of the indemnified party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and the indemnified party shall not be required to make any payment with respect to such claim, liability or expense as long as the indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and diligent defense at its own expense; provided, however, that the assumption of defense of any such matters by the indemnifying party shall relate solely to the claim, liability or expense that is subject or potentially subject to indemnification. The indemnifying party shall have the right, with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to settle all indemnifiable matters related to claims by third parties which are susceptible to being settled provided the indemnifying parties' obligation to indemnify the indemnified party therefor will be fully satisfied. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party apprised of the status of the claim, liability or expense and any resulting suit, proceeding or enforcement action, shall furnish the indemnified party with all documents and information that the indemnified party shall reasonably request and shall consult with the indemnified party prior to acting on major matters, including settlement discussions. Notwithstanding anything herein stated, the indemnified party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, if the named parties to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the expense of separate counsel for the indemnified party shall be paid by the indemnifying party. If no such notice of...
Third Party Claims. (a) If any third party shall notify an Indemnified Party in writing with respect to any matter involving a claim by such third party (a “Third Party Claim”) and such Indemnified Party believes such claim would give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing 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. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.
(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 with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, which right shall remain in effect if and for so long as the Indemnifying Party continues to diligently defend against such Action; provided, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be entitled to assume the defense of any Action if such Action (i) is with respect to a criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation or (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against any Indemnified Party. To the extent the Indemnifying Party is entitled to and elects to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Claim Notice. Upon delivery of such notice by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall diligently defend such Action to a final non-appealable adjudication or settlement, provided, that, (i) any such settlement or compromise shall be permitted hereunder only with the written consent of the Indemnified Party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (ii) and the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed of the progress of such defense on a regular basis.

Third Party Claims. (a) Promptly after receipt by a Person entitled to indemnity under Section 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4 (an "Indemnified Person") of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such Section (an "Indemnifying Person") of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person's failure to give such notice.
(b) If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 6.8(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice. After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article 6 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim.
