I-TECH has good and valid title to all Material Tangible Assets that it owns (except properties, interests in properties and assets sold or otherwise disposed of since the I-TECH Balance Sheet Date in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances. I-TECH is not in default under or in breach or violation of, nor is there any basis for any claim of default by I-TECH under, or breach or violation by I-TECH of, any lease of Material Tangible Assets to which I-TECH is a party.

To the knowledge of I-TECH, there are no governmental or other restrictions which would prevent Finisar or I-TECH from conducting business operations in Facilities currently leased by I-TECH in the manner currently conducted by I-TECH. I-TECH has not received notice of any pending or threatened condemnation proceedings relating to any of the Facilities.

To I-TECH’s knowledge, no other party is in default under or in breach or violation of, nor is there any valid basis for any claim of default by any such party under, or breach or violation by any such party of, any such lease. All such real property leases for Facilities currently occupied by I-TECH are in full force and effect and valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) general principles of equity. The I-TECH Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of all such leases.

Finisar acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, forecasts, plans and projections, that Finisar is familiar with such uncertainties, that Finisar is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, forecasts, plans and projections so furnished to it (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, forecasts, plans and projections), and that Finisar shall have no claim against I-TECH with respect thereto. Accordingly, I-TECH makes no representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, forecasts, plans and projections (including any underlying assumptions).

Such notice shall be made orally and in writing and shall indicate in reasonable detail the identity of the offeror and the terms and conditions of such proposal, inquiry or contact, subject to the terms of any confidentiality agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement. I-TECH shall keep Finisar informed with respect to any material changes in the status of any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, indication of interest or request and any modification or proposed modification thereto.

     6.2 Consents. Each of Finisar and I-TECH shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents, waivers and approvals under any of Finisar’s or I-TECH’s material agreements, contracts, licenses or leases as may be necessary or advisable to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.3 Access to Information. Upon reasonable notice, I-TECH shall afford to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives of Finisar, reasonable access, during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time, to all its properties,

28

books, contracts, commitments and records and, during such period, I-TECH shall promptly furnish or make available to Finisar or its representatives all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request. Unless otherwise required by law, the parties will treat any such information which is nonpublic in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement dated November 16, 2004 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) between Finisar and I-TECH, which Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger.

     6.4 Legal Conditions to Merger. Each of Finisar and I-TECH will take all reasonable actions necessary to comply promptly with all legal requirements which may be imposed on itself with respect to the Merger (which actions shall include, without limitation, furnishing all information reasonably necessary in connection with approvals of or filings with any Governmental Entity) and will promptly cooperate with and furnish information to each other in connection with any such requirements imposed upon either of them or any of their Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger. Each of Finisar and I-TECH will take all reasonable actions necessary to obtain (and will cooperate with each other in obtaining) any consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity required to be obtained or made by I-TECH, Finisar or any of their Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger or the taking of any action contemplated thereby or by this Agreement and to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable.

Finisar shall make such filings as are necessary, if any, with the Nasdaq stock market regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.7 Securities Law Matters.

          (a) Finisar shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Finisar Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Merger Consideration Note and the Escrow Note (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) to be registered under the Securities Act so as to permit the resale thereof, and in connection therewith shall use its reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC within fifteen (15) days following the Closing Date, and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to become effective no later than ninety (90) after the Closing Date, a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 or on such successor form as is then available under the Securities Act covering the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that each holder of Registrable Securities (“Holder”) shall provide all such information and materials and take all such action as may reasonably be requested by Finisar in order to permit

29

Finisar to comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC and to obtain any desired acceleration of the effective date of such Registration Statement. Such provision of information and materials is a condition precedent to the obligations of Finisar pursuant to this Section 6.7(a). Except as provided in Section 7.6(g), Finisar shall not be required to effect more than one (1) registration under this Section 6.7. The offering made pursuant to such registration shall not be underwritten.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Finisar shall be entitled to postpone the filing or declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for a reasonable period of time not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days after the deadlines therefore set forth in this Section 6.7, if Finisar determines that there exists material nonpublic information about Finisar which would be required by the Securities Act to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the disclosure of which, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of Finisar, would be detrimental to Finisar.

          (c) Subject to the limitations of Section 6.7(b), Finisar shall: (i) prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC in accordance with Section 6.7(a) with respect to the Registrable Securities and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable after filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective until two (2) months after the conversion of the last shares of Finisar Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund, or until such date as all Registrable Securities then held by any Holder could be sold under Rule 144(k) (the “Registration Period”); (ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities proposed to be registered in the Registration Statement during the Registration Period; and (iii) furnish to each Holder such number of copies of any prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus and any amended or supplemented prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as each Holder may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold. Prior to the filing with the SEC of any Registration Statement (including any amendments thereto) or any prospectus (including any supplements thereto), Finisar will provide draft copies thereof to the Holder and discuss such documents with the Holder, and his counsel. Finisar shall give to the Holder at least four (4) business days advance written notice of the date on which Finisar has requested that the Registration Statement be declared effective and shall give written notice of the SEC’s consent to or, approval of, the requested effective date or any determination of any other effective date on the same date such consent, approval or determination is communicated to Finisar or its legal counsel.

          (d) Finisar shall use its best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities laws of such states as the Holder reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those states, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such states. Finisar shall promptly

30

notify the Holder of the receipt by Finisar of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities laws of any states or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

          (e) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or development, Finisar shall notify the Holder in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to the Holder. Finisar shall also promptly notify the Holder in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Holder by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of Finisar’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate.

          (f) In the event the number of shares available under the Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, Finisar shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement, or both, so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the necessity therefore arises. Finisar shall use its best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof. For purposes of the foregoing provision, the number of shares available under the Registration Statement shall be deemed “insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities” if at any time the number of Registrable Securities issuable during the Registration Period is greater than the number of shares available for resale under such Registration Statement.

          (g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.7, Finisar shall have the right at any time to require that all Holders suspend further open market offers and sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement whenever, and for so long as, in the reasonable judgment of Finisar in good faith after consultation with counsel, there is or may be in existence material undisclosed information or events with respect to Finisar (the “Suspension Right”). In the event Finisar exercises the Suspension Right, such suspension will continue only for the period of time reasonably necessary for disclosure to occur at a time that is not materially detrimental to Finisar and its stockholders or until such time as the information or event is no longer material, each as determined in good faith by Finisar after consultation with counsel. Finisar will use all reasonable efforts to limit the length of the suspension to thirty (30) calendar days or less. Finisar agrees to notify the Holders promptly upon termination of the suspension. To compensate Holder for any loss in the value of Holder’s shares of Finisar Common Stock resulting from Finisar’s exercise of a Suspension Right, Finisar shall either, at Finisar’s option: (i) issue to Holder additional shares of Finisar Common Stock, or (ii) pay Holder cash, in either

31

case, with a value equal to the difference, if any, between (A) the number of shares of Finisar Common Stock held by Holder on the day the Suspension Right is exercised multiplied by the closing trading price of Finisar Common Stock on the date the Suspension Right is exercised, and (B) the number of shares of Finisar Common Stock held by Holder on the day the Suspension Right is exercised multiplied by the closing trading price of Finisar Common Stock on the date the suspension is terminated. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.7, in no event shall the Suspension Right be exercised (i) more than two (2) times in any 12-month period or (ii) for a total of more than ninety (90) days in any 12-month period.

          (h) Finisar will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any registration, qualification or compliance effected pursuant to this Section 6.7, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or any alleged violation by Finisar of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and Finisar will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, provided that Finisar will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Finisar by such Holder or controlling person and specifically for use therein.

          (i) It shall be a condition to Finisar’s obligations hereunder to register the Registrable Securities of any Holder that such Holder agrees to indemnify Finisar, each of Finisar’s directors and officers, each person who controls Finisar within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse Finisar, such other Holders, directors, officers, persons or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in

32

conformity with written information furnished to Finisar by such Holder specifically for use therein.

          (j) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.7 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to differing or potentially differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 6.7 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

          (k) All expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 6.7, including without limitation, all registration, filing and qualification fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of legal counsel for Finisar and the Holder, if any, and expenses of any special audits incidental to or required by such registration, shall be paid by Finisar, except Finisar shall not be required to pay underwriters’ fees, discounts or commissions relating to the Registrable Securities.

     6.8 Employment Matters. Prior to the Closing Date, Finisar will make offers of “at will” employment to the employees of I-TECH set forth on Schedule 6.8 hereto, such offers to be conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger. After the Effective Time, all I-TECH employees will continue to be employed by the Surviving Corporation, subject to the Surviving Corporation’s right to terminate such employment at any time after the Effective Time. Finisar will cause the Surviving Corporation to pay each I-TECH employee who is terminated after the Effective Time severance pay in accordance with the I-TECH Severance Guidelines in effect on the date hereof and set forth in a schedule delivered to Finisar.

     6.9 Employee Benefits. All I-TECH employees who accept Finisar’s offers of “at will” employment following the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”) shall be eligible to receive the benefits and payments set forth in Finisar’s offer letters. As temporary employees, the Continuing Employees will not be eligible to participate in Finisar’s employee benefit plans and programs.

33

     6.10 Termination of 401(k) Plan. Effective as of the end of the payroll period immediately preceding the payroll period in which the Closing Date occurs, I-TECH shall terminate any and all I-TECH Employee Plans that are subject to the requirements of Code Section 401(k) (collectively, the “401(k) Plan”). Prior to the Effective Time, I-TECH shall provide to Finisar executed resolutions by I-TECH’s Board of Directors authorizing the termination of the 401(k) Plan. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the prior review and approval of Finisar.

     6.11 Brokers or Finders. Each of Finisar and I-TECH represents, as to itself, its Subsidiaries and its Affiliates, that no agent, broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other firm or person is or will be entitled to any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission or similar fee in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except SVB Alliant (“SVB Alliant”), financial advisor to I-TECH, to which I-TECH has agreed to pay fees and expenses pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of December 3, 2004 (the “SVB Alliant Fees”). Except for the SVB Alliant Fees, each of Finisar and I-TECH agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all liability for any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission or similar fee in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.12 Additional Agreements; Reasonable Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties agrees to use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including cooperating fully with the other party, including by provision of information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, I-TECH will provide to Finisar all financial and accounting records that shall be reasonably requested by Finisar for the purpose of preparing financial statements of I-TECH for any period, or as of any date, prior to the Effective Time to the extent such financial statements are required by GAAP or the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of either of the Constituent Corporations, the proper officers and directors of each party to this Agreement shall take all such necessary action.

     6.13 Expenses. Except as provided below, the parties shall each pay their own legal, accounting, financial advisory and consulting fees and other out-of-pocket expenses related to the negotiation, preparation and carrying out of this Agreement and the transactions herein contemplated. In the event the Merger is consummated, Finisar shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay in full, immediately after the Effective Time, all legal, accounting, financial advisory and consulting fees and expenses incurred by I-TECH (whether paid or accrued) relating to the negotiation, preparation and carrying out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and obtaining all authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of, or declarations or filings with, all Governmental Entities in connection with such transactions (the “I-TECH Transaction Expenses”). If the Surviving Corporation’s cash on hand at the Closing is insufficient to pay the I-TECH Transaction Expenses in full, Finisar shall pay the balance of such I-TECH Transaction Expenses directly or provide sufficient funds to I-TECH to do so as promptly as practical but in no event less than one (1) business day after the Effective Time. I-

34

TECH shall provide a schedule of estimated I-TECH Transaction Expenses not later than two (2) business days prior to the Closing. At the Closing, I-TECH shall provide a final schedule of the I-TECH Transaction Expenses to Finisar (the “Closing I-TECH Transaction Expense Schedule”). In the event any I-TECH expenses are not included on the Closing I-TECH Transaction Expense Schedule, such expenses shall not be treated as I-TECH Transaction Expenses for purposes hereof and Finisar shall be entitled to assert a claim against the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof in order to recover all expenses not included in the Closing I-TECH Transaction Expense Schedule; provided however, Finisar shall make no claim against the Escrow Fund with respect to any I-TECH expenses that are omitted from the Closing I-TECH Transaction Expense Schedule to the extent, but only to the extent, the omitted expenses are paid or otherwise satisfied by the I-TECH Shareholder. The provisions of this Section 6.13 shall not, however, apply to any costs, expenses or fees specified in Section 6.7(k) which shall be paid as provided in said Section 6.7(k).

     6.14 Waiver Agreements by Disqualified Individuals. Prior to the Effective Time and, in any event, prior to the earliest time following the date of this Agreement at which any payment or benefit which would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code as a consequence of any transaction or event contemplated by this Agreement (each such payment or benefit being hereinafter referred to as a “Potential Excess Parachute Payment”) in the absence of satisfaction of the shareholder approval requirements described in Section 280G(b)(5) of the Code (the “Shareholder Approval Requirements”) is paid or provided to or for the benefit of any person who, with respect to I-TECH, is a “disqualified individual” within the meaning of Section 280G(c) of the Code, I-TECH shall require such person to agree in writing, in a form reasonably acceptable to Finisar (a “Waiver Agreement”), to forfeit such person’s right to receive each and every Potential Excess Parachute Payment unless, subsequent to the date of such Waiver Agreement, the shareholders of I-TECH approve such Potential Excess Parachute Payment in compliance with the Shareholder Approval Requirements.

     6.15 Maintenance of I-TECH Indemnification Obligations.

          (a) Subject to and following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Finisar shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified I-TECH Parties (as defined below) to the extent provided in the Bylaws of I-TECH in effect as of the date of this Agreement. The Surviving Corporation shall, and Finisar shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, keep in effect such Bylaw provisions, which shall not be amended except as required by applicable law or to make changes permitted by Minnesota law that would enlarge the rights to indemnification available to the Indemnified I-TECH Parties and changes to provide for exculpation of director and officer liability to the fullest extent permitted by Minnesota law. For purposes of this Section 6.15, “Indemnified I-TECH Parties” shall mean the individuals who were officers, directors, employees and agents of I-TECH on or immediately prior to the Effective Time.

          (b) Subject to and following the Effective Time, Finisar and the Surviving Corporation shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified I-TECH Party in enforcing the rights provided in this Section 6.15 and shall make any advances of such expenses to the

35

Indemnified I-TECH Party that would be available under the Bylaws of I-TECH (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) with regard to the advancement of indemnifiable expenses, subject to the undertaking of such party to repay such advances in the event that it is ultimately determined that such party is not entitled to indemnification.

          (c) The provisions of this Section 6.15 shall be in addition to any other rights available to the Indemnified I-TECH Parties, shall survive the Effective Time and are expressly intended for the benefit of the Indemnified I-TECH Parties.

     6.16 Loan to I-TECH Shareholder. Not later than one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date, Finisar shall make a loan (the “Finisar Loan”) to the I-TECH Shareholder in the principal amount of $2,000,000, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in a secured promissory note and related stock pledge agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D which shall be executed and delivered at the time the Finisar Loan is made. As soon as practical after the receipt of the proceeds of the Finisar Loan (but in no event later than one (1) business day after the Finisar Loan is made and the funds have cleared the I-TECH Shareholder’s Bank) the I-TECH Shareholder shall make a contribution to the capital of I-TECH in the amount of $2,000,000 in exchange for 9,940 Shares of I-TECH Common Stock (the “Additional Capital Contribution”).

     6.17 Payment of Bank Debt; Release of Guarantees.

          (b) A claim for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnification Claim”) shall be made by an Indemnitee by delivery of a written notice signed by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor, requesting indemnification and specifying in reasonable detail the basis on which indemnification is sought (and shall include relevant documentation related to the Indemnification Claim), the amount of the asserted Finisar Losses or I-TECH Losses, as the case may be, and in the case of a Third Party Claim (as defined in Section 9.6), containing (by

42

attachment or otherwise) such other information as Indemnitee shall have concerning such Third Party Claim.

          (c) If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third Party Claim, the procedures set forth in Section 9.6 hereof shall be observed by Indemnitee and the Indemnitor.

     9.6 Defense of Third Party Claims. Should any claim be made or suit or proceeding be instituted against an Indemnitee which, if prosecuted successfully, would be a matter for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX (a “Third Party Claim”), the obligations and liabilities of the Indemnitor and Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (a) An Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor written notice of any such Third Party Claim promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice thereof, and the Indemnitor may undertake control of the defense thereof by counsel of its own choosing, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. In such event, the Indemnitee may participate in the defense through its own counsel at its own expense. If, however, the Indemnitor fails or refuses to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim within fifteen (15) days after written notice of such claim has been delivered to the Indemnitor by Indemnitee, Indemnitee shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise and, settlement of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing. Failure of the Indemnitee to furnish written notice to the Indemnitor of a Third Party Claim shall not release the Indemnitor from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent it is prejudiced by such failure.

          (b) The Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such claim and furnishing employees of Indemnitee as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such Third Party Claim or for testimony as a witness in any proceeding relating to such claim.

          (c) Unless the Indemnitor has failed to fulfill its obligations under this Article IX, no settlement by Indemnitee of a Third Party Claim shall be made without the prior written consent by or on behalf of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitor has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim as contemplated by this Section 9.6, no settlement of such Third Party Claim may be made by the Indemnitor without the prior written consent by or on behalf of Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
