within which claims may be brought against Permian for such activities, or
in the case of Section 12.1.3., three (3) years from the date of filing of

proceedings based on fraud or willful misconduct, willful misrepresentation

12.3 Notice and Procedure. Any party claiming indemnity hereunder
(hereinafter referred to as the "Indemnified Party") shall give the party
against whom indemnity is sought (hereinafter referred to as the
"Indemnifying Party") prompt written notice after obtaining knowledge of
any claim or the existence of facts as to which recovery may be sought
against it in respect of which the Indemnifying Party may be liable because
of the indemnity provisions set forth in this Section 12. If such claim for
indemnity arises in connection with a legal action instituted by a third
party (hereinafter a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified Party hereby
agrees that, within ten (10) Business Days after it is served with notice
of the assertion of any Third Party Claim for which it may seek indemnity
hereunder, the Indemnified Party will notify the Indemnifying Party in
writing of such Third Party Claim.
12.3.1. The Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) Business Days after
the date that the Indemnified Party gives notice of a claim (whether a
Third Party Claim or otherwise) as provided above, notify the Indemnified
Party whether it accepts or contests its obligation of indemnity hereunder
as claimed by the Indemnified Party.
12.3.2. If the claim for indemnity arises in connection with a Third Party
Claim and the Indemnifying Party accepts its indemnity obligation
hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, after
conceding in writing its obligation of indemnity hereunder, to
conduct the defense of such action at its sole expense through
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. 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 accepts its indemnity obligations hereunder in
connection with a Third Party Claim but elects not to conduct the defense
thereof, the Indemnified Party may defend and/or settle such Third Party
Claim and shall be entitled to be indemnified for the full amount of such
claim and all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in
connection therewith pursuant to this Section 12.3.2.
12.3.3. If the claim for indemnity arises in connection with a Third Party
Claim and the Indemnifying Party contests or does not accept its
indemnity obligation hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall have the
right to defend and/or settle such Third Party Claim and thereafter seek
indemnity from the other party pursuant to this Section 12.3.3, however,
that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any such claim without the
prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld.
12.3.4. If the claim for indemnity arises other than in connection with a
Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party accepts its indemnity
obligation hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon the request of
the Indemnified Party, pay the full amount of such claim to the
Indemnified Party or to the third party asserting such claim as directed
by the Indemnified Party. If the claim for indemnity arises other than in
connection with a Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party contests
its indemnity obligation hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall have the
right to defend, settle or take any other action with respect to such
claim and thereafter seek indemnity pursuant to this Section 12.3.4.;
provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any such
claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
