ARTICLE FOURTH

INDEMNIFICATION

4.1 Seller’s Indemnity. The Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser, its affiliates and the Company harmless of and from any liability, claim, demand, loss, expense or damage (collectively, “Loss”) suffered by any such indemnitee (1) arising from any act or omission of, or any breach of obligations by Seller, or an agent, employee or contractor of the foregoing, occurring during Seller’s period of ownership of the Interest before the date hereof; (2) arising from any breach or inaccuracy of Seller’s representations and warranties in Article SECOND or (iii) arising from Seller’s failure to comply with any of its covenants contained herein including, without limitation, Section 1.4 hereof.

4.2 Purchaser’s Indemnity. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its affiliates harmless of and from any Loss suffered by any such indemnitee arising from (i) any breach or inaccuracy of Purchaser’s representations and warranties in Article THIRD or (ii) Purchaser’s failure to comply with any of its covenants contained herein including, without limitation, Section 1.4 hereof.

4.3 Survival. The indemnities set forth in this Article FOURTH shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby for a period of one year (or, in the event a claim is made by any indemnitee within such one year period, until such claim is resolved, if later).

4.4 Procedure. The following provisions govern all actions for indemnity under this Article FOURTH and any other provision of this Agreement. Promptly after receipt by an indemnitee of notice of any claim, such indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnitor, deliver to the indemnitor written notice thereof and the indemnitor shall have the right to participate in and, if the indemnitor agrees in writing that it will be responsible for any costs, expenses, judgments, damages, and losses incurred by the indemnitee with respect to such claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnitor, if the indemnitee reasonably believes that representation of such indemnitee by the counsel retained by the indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of indemnitee to deliver written notice to the indemnitor within a reasonable time after indemnitee receives notice of any such claim shall relieve such indemnitor of any liability to the indemnitee under this indemnity only if and to the extent that such failure is prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, and the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnitee other than under this indemnity. If an indemnitee settles a claim without the before written consent of the indemnitor, then the indemnitor shall be released from liability with respect to such claim unless the indemnitor has unreasonably withheld such consent.

ARTICLE FIFTH

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of such closing.

5.2 Additional Actions and Documents. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to take or cause to be taken such further actions, to execute, deliver and file or cause to be executed, delivered and filed such further documents, and will obtain such consents, as may be necessary or as may be reasonably requested in order to fully effectuate the purposes, terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the other documents referred to herein or furnished pursuant hereto, constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein, and supersede all prior oral or written agreements, commitments or understandings with respect to the matters provided for herein; provided, that nothing in this Section 5.3 shall have any effect on any other agreements. No amendment, modification or discharge of this Agreement shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed and delivered by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, modification, or discharge is sought.

5.4 Effect of Investigation. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any due diligence review, audit or other investigation or inquiry undertaken or performed by or on behalf of any party hereto shall not limit, qualify, modify or amend the representations, warranties or covenants of, or indemnities by, made or undertaken pursuant to this Agreement, irrespective of the knowledge and information received (or which should have been received) therefrom by such party.

All notices, demands, requests, or other communications which may be or are required to be given, served, or sent by any party to any other party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be hand delivered, sent by overnight courier or mailed by first-class, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or transmitted by facsimile, telegram, telecopy or telex, addressed as follows:
