The Indemnified Party shall not make any admission of liability in respect of nor compromise or settle such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and shall consult with the Indemnifying Party as to progress of such claim and shall use all reasonable endeavours to mitigate the liability of the Indemnified Party under such indemnity in respect of such claim provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to commence or defend any legal proceedings in relation to such claim at its own expense and provided also that, where the Buyer is the Indemnified Party, nothing in this clause shall prevent the Buyer from taking such action as, in the Buyer's reasonable opinion, is necessary and in the absence of which the legitimate interests of the Buyer would be materially prejudiced or entitle the Seller to take any action in relation to such claim as would, in the Buyer's reasonable opinion, be material prejudicial to the legitimate interests of the Buyer. 24. COUNTERPARTS 24.1 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties on different counterparts, but shall not be effective until each party has executed at least one counterpart. 24.2 Each counterpart, when executed, shall constitute an original of this Agreement but all the counterparts together shall together constitute one and the same instrument. - 19 - 25.

THIRD PARTY RIGHTS No right of any party to agree any amendment, variation, waiver or settlement under or arising from or in respect of this Agreement, or to terminate this Agreement, shall be subject to the consent of any person who has rights under this Agreement by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999. 27.
