Section 6.03    Indemnification Procedure.
(a)    In the event that any Proceeding is instituted or any Claim is asserted by any Third Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought under Section 6.02 hereof and in respect of which the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all of such Indemnified Party’s Losses (subject to any applicable limitations in this Article VI) (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party will have the right, at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, to assume the defense of the same, including the appointment and selection of counsel on behalf of the Indemnified Party, so long as such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, it shall within thirty (30) days notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its intent to do so. Subject to Section 6.03(c), the Indemnifying Party will have the right to settle or compromise or take any corrective or remedial action with respect to any such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party will be entitled, at its own cost, to participate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such Third Party Claim, unless separate representation of the Indemnified Party by counsel is reasonably necessary to avoid a conflict of interest, in which case such representation shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Third Party Claim but fails to diligently prosecute such Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may assume control of such defense and in the event the Third Party Claim is determined to be a matter for which the Indemnifying Party is required to provide indemnification under the terms of this Article VI, the Indemnifying Party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense (including fees and expenses of counsel).
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will not be permitted to settle, compromise, take any corrective or remedial action or enter into an agreed judgment or consent decree or permit a default without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, in each case, that (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a binding, irrevocable, written release of any Indemnified Party from all Liability, (ii) provides for any admission of Liability on the part of any Indemnified Party, (iii) requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing on the part of

14

US-DOCS\92753768.12

 

any Indemnified Party or (iv) imposes any Liability or continuing obligation on or requires any payment from any Indemnified Party.
Section 6.04    Limitations.
(a)    In no event shall the aggregate Liability of any Party for indemnifiable Losses hereunder exceed the Purchase Price.
(b)    No Indemnifying Party shall be liable under Section 6.02 for any special, incidental, consequential, multiplied, exemplary, speculative or punitive Losses, except to the extent that, (i) in the case of any special, incidental, consequential or multiplied Losses, any of the foregoing are the reasonably foreseeable result of a breach of this Agreement or (ii) the payment of such damages or amount of Losses is to a Person making a Third Party Claim in satisfaction of such Third Party Claim pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 6.05    Calculation of Losses. In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party, the amount of any indemnified Losses shall be computed net of (a) payments actually recovered by any Indemnified Party under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses net of expenses and (b) any actual recovery by any Indemnified Party from any Person with respect to such Losses net of expenses. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue reimbursement for Losses, including under insurance policies and indemnity arrangements.
Section 6.06    No Duplication. In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover any Losses under one Section or provision of this Agreement to the extent of the full amount of such Losses already recovered by such Indemnified Party, nor shall its insurer or indemnitor be entitled to any kind of subrogation or substitution which would give it the right to make a claim against the Indemnifying Party.
Section 6.07    Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Seller and the Buyer agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article VI as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
Section 6.08    Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for Losses, including claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to claims for breach of Contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims for breach of duty that it may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that each Party shall retain all remedies at Law or in equity with respect to actual fraud.
