(b) NON-THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. (i) Each indemnified party will, with reasonable promptness, deliver to the indemnifying party written notice of all claims for indemnification under this Section 7, other than Third Party Claims, including, in reasonable detail, the basis for the claim, the nature of Damages and a good faith estimate of the amount of Damages.
