(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Article 10 to the contrary, all Damages relating to Taxes which are subject to Article 9 shall only be subject to indemnification under Section 9.3.
10.3 Indemnification Claim Procedures.
(a) If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against any person obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Party (an “Indemnitor”), then such Indemnified Party will promptly give written notice to the Indemnitor. Such notice will describe the Indemnification Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of all material written evidence thereof and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. In the event of a delay in the Indemnified Party providing such notice, the Indemnitor shall not be responsible for damages resulting from any such delay, including damages resulting from an inability to mitigate or a delay in mitigating damages. An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnitor will not
approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Indemnification Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be withheld unreasonably). Until an Indemnitor assumes the defense of the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Indemnification Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party reasonably deems appropriate. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within ten (10) days after such notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Indemnification Claim and thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnitor will be bound by any judicial determination made with respect to such Indemnification Claim or any compromise or settlement of such Indemnification Claim effected by the Indemnified Party.
(b) A claim for any matter not involving a third party may be asserted by notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought.
10.4 Additional Agreements Regarding Indemnification.
(a) The Contributors shall not have any liability arising out of or relating to Section 10.2(a) for breaches of representations and warranties except if the aggregate Damages actually incurred by the Indemnified Party thereunder exceed $1,000,000, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct, in which event there shall be no exception to liability.
(b) In no event shall the aggregate liability of the Contributors arising out of or relating to Section 10.2(a) for breaches of representations or warranties exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of the Closing Consideration on the Closing Date, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct, in which event there shall be no limitation on liability.
(c) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10.4 shall affect the provisions of Article 9.
10.5 Consideration Adjustment. The Parties agree to treat all payments made pursuant to this Article 10 as adjustments to the capital contribution for Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by Law following a final determination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a Governmental Body with competent jurisdiction.
10.6 Exclusive Remedy.
(a) No Party shall have any liability for contribution, and no Party shall make any such claim, for any Damages or other matter (and the Parties each hereby waive any right of contribution against the other and their respective Affiliates), under, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other document, agreement, certificate or other matter delivered pursuant hereto or the Transactions contemplated hereby, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Laws or otherwise.
(b) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES OR OTHER SPECULATIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER LAW OR OTHERWISE AND WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM ANY OTHER PARTY’S SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS SECTION 10.6 SHALL NOT LIMIT A PARTY’S RIGHT TO RECOVERY UNDER ARTICLE 10 FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT SUCH PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY SUCH DAMAGES TO A THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A MATTER FOR WHICH SUCH PARTY IS OTHERWISE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER ARTICLE 10.
