(c) The aggregate amount of indemnification obligations of Seller with respect to any Losses otherwise payable under Section 9.2 with respect to breaches of Seller’s representations and warranties shall not exceed Escrow Amount (the “Indemnity Cap”) (except that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with respect to Seller’s indemnification obligations with respect to breaches of covenants and the Retained Liabilities).No amounts in respect of indemnifiable Losses of Seller shall be payable until such time as all such indemnifiable Losses shall aggregate to more than $50,000 (the “Basket”), after which xxxx Xxxxxx shall be liable in full (subject to the Indemnity Cap in the event of breaches of representations and warranties) for all indemnifiable Losses from the first dollar of Loss.

9.4 Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event Purchaser or Seller becomes aware of a third-party claim which it reasonably believes may result in indemnification pursuant to applicable provisions of this Article 9, such Person shall promptly notify the other party of such claim; provided that, the failure of any Purchaser Indemnified Party to give prompt notice of such third-party claim (the “Claim Notice”) shall not release or otherwise affect Seller’s obligations with respect to its indemnification obligations except to the extent it is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Seller may elect to assume the defense of such third-party claim at its sole expense by notifying the Indemnified Party of such election promptly after receipt of the Claim Notice, but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days of its receipt thereof. The failure to give such notice shall not affect Seller’s right to assume such defense, except to the extent any Purchaser Indemnified Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. If Seller so elects to assume the defense of such third-party claim, (i) the Purchaser Indemnifying Party shall proceed to defend such claim in a diligent manner with counsel of its choice (which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser Indemnified Party); (ii) the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall make available to Seller any non-privileged documents and materials in its possession that may be reasonably necessary to the defense of such claim; (iii) Seller shall keep the Purchaser Indemnified Party reasonably informed of all material developments and events relating to such claim; (iv) the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim, but at its sole cost and expense, unless (A) the engagement of counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by Seller, or (B) the named parties to the third-party complaint (including impleaded parties) include both the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and Seller, and in the opinion of counsel to the Purchaser Indemnified Party, there exists a conflict (or potential conflict) of interest between such parties, in which case the reasonable expenses of the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be paid or reimbursed by Seller (provided that in no event shall Seller be liable for more than one counsel for all Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to such third-party claim); and (v) Seller shall not, without the consent of the Purchaser Indemnified Party (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise or discharge such third-party claim or permit a default or consent to entry of judgment, unless any such settlement, compromise, discharge or consent includes a release of the Purchaser Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such third-party claim, provides solely for monetary relief and involves no finding or admission of any violation of any Law by the Purchaser Indemnified Party and involves no limitation on the Use by Purchaser or rights of Purchaser in any Purchased Asset.

(b) Subject to the overall limitations set forth in this Section 9.4, if Seller fails to give notice of its election to assume the defense of a third-party claim pursuant to Section 9.5(a), and the Purchaser Indemnified Party proceeds with the defense of such claim or proceeding on its own: (i) all reasonable expenses relating to the defense of such claim (with counsel not reasonably objected to by Seller) shall be borne and paid exclusively by Seller (provided that in no event shall Seller be liable for more than one counsel for all Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to such third-party claim); (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party any non-privileged documents and materials in its possession or control that may be reasonably necessary to the defense of such claim or proceeding; (iii) the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall keep Seller reasonably informed of all material developments and events relating to such claim or proceeding; (iv) Seller shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim, but at its sole cost and expense; and (v) the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall not, without the consent of Seller (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise or discharge such third-party claim or permit a default or consent to entry of judgment, unless any such settlement, compromise, discharge or consent includes a release of Seller from all liability arising out of such third-party claim, provides solely for monetary relief and involves no finding or admission of any violation of any Law by the Purchaser (unless Seller elects to waive any such requirement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time upon five (5) business days notice, Seller shall have the right to assume the defense of a third-party claim that is currently being defended by the Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.4(b), except to the extent that the Purchaser Indemnified Party would be actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

9.5 Bankruptcy Court. All claims for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 shall be submitted to and resolved by the Bankruptcy Court by motion or commencement of a proceeding before the Bankruptcy Court, without prejudice to any party’s right to appeal any decision of the Bankruptcy Court with respect thereto.

9.6 One Recovery. No Indemnified Party or parties hereunder shall be entitled to double recovery for the same damage arising from the breach of more than one of the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of an Indemnifying Party with respect to such damage.

(c) by either Purchaser or Seller (provided that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), if there shall have been a material breach or misrepresentation of any of the representations or warranties or a material breach of or failure to perform in any material respect any of the covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement on the part of Seller, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, which breach, misrepresentation or failure would give rise to the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1(a) or Section 4.2(a), as the case may be, and such breach, misrepresentation or failure cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date, unless such breach, misrepresentation or failure, by its nature, cannot be cured prior to the Closing;

(a) If Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to any of the provisions of Section 10.1(c)-(f) hereof, then Purchaser shall be entitled to the Breakup Fee and Expense Reimbursement Amount, which shall be deemed fully earned, due and owing as of the date of such termination. The Breakup Fee and Expense Reimbursement Amount payable pursuant to this Section 10.2(a) shall be paid directly to Purchaser out of the purchase price paid as part of any Alternative Transaction, upon and directly through the closing of the Alternative Transaction, and such payments shall be a condition to the closing of any Alternative Transaction. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to any of the provisions of Section 10.1(b), (g) or (h) hereof, then Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies, to immediate payment of any and all out-of-pocket costs incurred relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, but in no event more than the aggregate amount of the Expense Reimbursement Amount, which shall be deemed fully earned, due and owing as of the date of such termination.
