10.3           Indemnification and Payment of Damages by Buyer and the Company.

(b)           The amount of any Damages sought to be recovered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties under this Article 10(i) shall not include any incidental, indirect or consequential damages or any loss of profits, except to the extent included in claims for indemnification made in respect of third party claims against Buyer Indemnified Parties that seek such damages, and (ii) shall be net of any tax benefit obtained by such Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages and the underlying facts associated with such Damages.

Buyer will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) under Section 10.3 until, and only to the extent that, the cumulative total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000).  Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, this Section 10.5 shall not apply to: (i) any breach by Buyer of the representations or warranties of Sections 5.5 or 5.6; or (ii) any covenant or obligations of Buyer under this Agreement to be performed after the Closing Date.

10.6           Procedure for Indemnification—Third Party Claims.

(a)           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Articles 10.2, or 10.3 of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Article, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnifying party's failure to give such notice.

(b)           If any Proceeding referred to in Article 10.6(a) is brought against an indemnified party the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Article 10 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent unless the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (ii)the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent.  If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within sixty days after the indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will  not have the right to assume the defense of such proceeding pursuant to this Section 10.6.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

(d)           Sellers hereby consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on Sellers with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

10.7           Procedure for Indemnification—Other Claims.

A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by timely notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought outlining in reasonable detail the facts and basis of the claim.

10.8           Treatment of Indemnification Payment.

If Buyer or any Seller makes any payment to an indemnified party pursuant to this Article 10, then such amount shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

10.9           Exclusive Remedy and Escrow.

The remedies and causes of action provided in this Article 10 shall be the exclusive remedies and causes of action of the Parties hereto (including, without limitation, as to any Buyer Indemnified Persons) after Closing in connection with the terms of and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation any breach or non-performance of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein; and each indemnified party does hereby waive any and all such other statutory, common law and contractual rights and remedies with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.  The Buyer Indemnified Persons agree that (a) any and all claims for Damages under this Article 10 shall first be made against and satisfied out of the Escrow Fund pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement between Buyer, Sellers, the Bruce A. Dillman Trust dated as of October 19, 1977, the Company and, Dillman Equipment, Inc. and (b) the Sellers shall not have any liability under this Article 10, if at all, until the Buyer Indemnified Persons have fully exhausted the Escrow Fund in pursuit of any such claims.
