The foregoing provisions of this Section 7.2(b) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein indefinitely; provided, that no action may be brought, and no recovery may be had, in respect of a breach of any representation or warranty after the termination of such representation, as provided in Section 7.1. (c) Any Party permitted to seek indemnification under this Section 7.2 (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give the Party from whom indemnification is being sought (an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") notice of any matter which such Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement as soon as practicable after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 7.2. The Liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Section 7.2 with respect to Damages arising from claims of any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.2 ("THIRD PARTY CLAIMS") shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions. If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of the receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Section 7.2 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if there exists a material conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or if there are separate, relevant and material defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel, at the expense of the 24 Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (excluding one local counsel per jurisdiction as necessary) for all Indemnified Parties, taken together. In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party's possession or under the Indemnified Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party's possession or under the Indemnifying Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (i) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which (A) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (B) includes an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party or (ii) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim if the settlement which imposes equitable remedies or material obligations on the Indemnified Party other than financial obligations for which such Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. No Third Party Claim which is being defended in good faith by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be settled or compromised by the Indemnified Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such settlement or compromise would result in an obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify such Indemnified Party, or would otherwise result in Liability of, or have an adverse impact upon, such Indemnifying Party. (d) The term "DAMAGES" shall mean any and all claims, damages, liabilities and expenses losses resulting from any Liabilities, obligations, damages, lawsuits, deficiencies, claims, demands, Taxes, penalties, fines and expenses (whether or not arising out of Third Party Claims), reasonable attorneys' fees, and all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing. 7.3 LIMITATION ON REMEDIES. The rights of indemnification set forth in this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of each Party for the breach by the other Party of any representation, warranty or covenant or other term in this Agreement other than claims for specific performance or other equitable relief. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, with respect to each Purchaser, the Company's liability under this Article VII shall not exceed the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser. 25 ARTICLE VIII. MISCELLANEOUS 8.1 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any Party will bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of such Party, whether so expressed or not; provided, however, that no Party shall assign (by operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement or any part hereof or any obligation hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto other than an assignment by the Company in connection with a Corporate Conversion (as defined in the Amended LLC Agreement). 8.2 THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY. With the exception of the Indemnitees as set forth in Article VII, this Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, personal representatives, heirs and estates, as the case may be. 8.3 CONFIDENTIALITY: PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Each Purchaser and its Affiliates agree that such confidential information shall be used only in connection with the business of the Company, and the Purchaser's investment therein, and not for any other purpose, including, without limitation, in connection with any competitive or potentially competitive activities. Any publicity release, advertisement, filing, public statement or announcement made, regarding this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby is to be first reviewed by, and must be reasonably satisfactory to, the Company and the applicable Purchaser(s). 8.4 NOTICES.
