(a) As promptly as is reasonably practicable after becoming aware of a claim for indemnification under the Agreement or this Sale Supplement not involving a Third-Party Claim, but in any event no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after first becoming aware of such claim, the Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Indemnifying Person of such claim, which notice shall specify the facts alleged to constitute the basis for such claim and the amount that the Indemnified Person seeks hereunder from the Indemnifying Person; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Person to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Section 8.3 except to the extent (if any) that the Indemnifying Person shall have been prejudiced thereby.
(b) The Indemnified Person shall give notice as promptly as is reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after receiving notice thereof, to the Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding, by any unaffiliated third Person (a Third-Party Claim) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under the Agreement or this Sale Supplement (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such claim); provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Person to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Section 8.3 except to the extent (if any) that the Indemnifying Person shall have been prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Person may, at its own expense, (i) participate in the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, and (ii) upon notice to the Indemnified Person, at any time during the course of any such Third-Party Claim, assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choice and, in the event of such assumption, shall have the exclusive right, subject to clause (i) in the proviso in Section 8.3(c), to settle or compromise such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Person assumes such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Person. Whether or not the Indemnifying Person chooses to defend or prosecute any such Third-Party Claim, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.
(c) Any settlement or compromise made or caused to be made by the Indemnified Person (unless the Indemnifying Person has the exclusive right to settle or compromise under clause (ii) of Section 8.3(b) or the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be), of any such Third-Party Claim shall also be binding upon the Indemnifying Person or the Indemnified Person, as the case may be, in the same manner as if a final judgment had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or compromise; provided, however, that (i) no obligation, restriction, loss or admission of guilt or wrongdoing shall be imposed on the Indemnified Person as a result of such settlement or compromise without its prior written consent and (ii) the Indemnified Person will not compromise or settle any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Person.
-24-
(d) Except as specifically provided for in the Agreement or this Sale Supplement, no claim may be made by an Indemnified Person for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages (Special Damages) in respect of any breach or wrongful conduct (whether the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by law) in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated, or relationship established, by this Agreement or any Sale Supplement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Seller and each Purchaser hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim for Special Damages, whether or not accrued or whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(b) All payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made free and clear and without deductions of any kind for taxes.
8.5 Survival. The parties obligations under this Article 8 shall survive any termination of the Agreement and/or this Sale Supplement.

8.7 Specific Performance. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement or this Sale Supplement, (i) it is understood and agreed that the remedy of indemnity payments pursuant to this Article 8 and other remedies at law would be inadequate in the case of any actual or threatened breach of the Agreement or this Sale Supplement by Seller and (ii) Purchasers shall be entitled, without limiting its other remedies and without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond, to equitable relief, including the remedy of specific performance or injunction, with respect to any breach or threatened breach of such covenants. Such relief shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other remedies available at law or in equity to such party under the Agreement and this Sale Supplement.
