(c)                                  Third Party Claims; Defense of Claims.  If any Action or Proceeding is filed or initiated against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice thereof shall be given to the indemnifying party as promptly as practicable and in any event within ten days after the service of the citation or summons; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give timely notice shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates actual damage caused by such failure.  After such notice, if the indemnifying party acknowledges in writing to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party is obligated under the terms of its indemnity hereunder in connection with such Action or Proceeding, then the indemnifying party will be entitled, if it so elects, to take control of the defense and investigation of such Action or Proceeding and to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same, such attorneys to be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, at the indemnifying party’s cost, risk, and expense, unless (i) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding or (ii) the named parties to such Action or Proceeding include both of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party and its counsel determine in good faith that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and that joint representation would be inappropriate, and to compromise or settle such Action or Proceeding, which compromise or settlement may be made only with the written consent of the indemnified party, such consent not to be withheld unreasonably.  The indemnified party may withhold such consent if such compromise or settlement would adversely affect the conduct of business or requires less than an unconditional release to be obtained.  If (i) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding within 15 days after receipt of notice thereof pursuant to this Section 7.2, or (ii) the named parties to such Action or Proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party and its counsel determine in good faith that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and that joint representation would be inappropriate, the

33

indemnified party against which such Action or Proceeding has been filed or initiated will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake, at the indemnifying party’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise, or settlement of such Action or Proceeding on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party.  In the event the indemnified party assumes defense of the Action or Proceeding, the indemnified party will keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise, or settlement and when appropriate will consult with and consider any reasonable advice from the indemnifying party of any such defense, compromise, or settlement.  The indemnifying party will be liable for any settlement of any action effected pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 7.2 and for any final judgment (subject to any right of appeal), and the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment.

Regardless of whether the indemnifying party or the indemnified party takes up the defense, the indemnifying party will pay reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the defense, compromise, or settlement for any Action or Proceeding under this Section 7.2.

The indemnified party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the indemnifying party and such attorneys in the investigation, trial, and defense of such Action or Proceeding and any appeal arising therefrom; provided, however, that the indemnified party may, at its own cost, participate in the investigation, trial, and defense of such Action or Proceeding and any appeal arising therefrom.  The indemnifying party shall pay all expenses due under this Section 7.2 as such expenses become due.

(d)                                 Indemnity Claims.  A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

7.3.                              Non-Exclusivity.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the indemnity obligations set forth above are not to be the exclusive remedy of the indemnified parties with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

7.4.                              Limitation of Damages.  In the event the Company or any Shareholder is required to pay any damages arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, the amount of such damages payable by the Company or any Shareholder may not exceed the sum of (a) the net amount of the Initial Cash Consideration actually received by the Company and the Shareholders at the Closing, after deduction therefrom of reasonable amounts paid to counsel for the Company in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, (b) the aggregate amount of the Note Consideration received by the Company and the Shareholders, including interest paid pursuant to the terms of the Note, and (c) the amount of any Additional Consideration received by the Company or the Shareholders, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of Section 2.3(b).

ARTICLE VIII.
ARBITRATION

8.1.                              Arbitration.  In the event of any dispute among the parties hereto as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the rights and obligations of any party hereunder, such dispute shall be resolved through binding arbitration as hereinafter provided.  If arbitration is required to resolve a dispute hereunder, any party may notify the American Arbitration Association in Birmingham, Alabama (“AAA”) and request AAA to select one person to act as the arbitrator for resolution of the dispute.  The arbitrator so selected shall conduct any such proceedings using the rules of the AAA and such rules will be binding upon all parties to the arbitration proceeding.  The Arbitrator is encouraged to modify the application of such rules as the arbitrator deems appropriate to accomplish the arbitration in the quickest and least expensive manner possible.  Accordingly, the arbitrator may (i) dispense with any formal rules of evidence and allow hearsay testimony so as to limit the number of witnesses required, (ii) accept evidence of property values without formal appraisals, (iii) act upon his understanding or interpretation of the law on any issue without the obligation to research such issue or accept or act upon briefs of the issue prepared by any party, (iv) limit the time for presentation of any party’s case as well as the amount of information or number of witnesses to be presented in connection with any hearing, and (v) impose any other rules which the arbitrator believes appropriate to effect a resolution of the dispute as quickly and inexpensively as possible.  The arbitrator will have the exclusive authority to determine and award costs of arbitration and the costs incurred by any party for their attorneys, advisors and consultants.

ARTICLE IX.
