(d) Upon assumption of control of the defense of a Third Party Action under paragraph (c) above, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred in connection with the defense of the Third Party Action, other than reasonable expenses of investigation. (e) If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to control the defense of a Third Party Action under paragraph (c) above, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with defense of such Third Party Action, as and when the same shall be incurred by the Indemnified Party. (f) Any party who has not assumed control of the defense of any Third Party Action shall have the duty to cooperate with the party that assumed such defense. 7.4 Miscellaneous. (a) Either party hereto shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder unless the matter giving rise to the applicable liability, payment, obligation or expense was clearly disclosed in writing to the Indemnified Party prior to the Closing.

Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each of the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement to which it is a party in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. ARTICLE IX. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 9.1 Expenses.

No waiver by any Party of any condition or the breach of any provision, term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instance shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or of the breach of any other provision, term, covenant, representation or warranty of this Agreement. 11 9.5 Notices.
