From and after the Closing and subject to the limitations in Section 7.2 and Section 9.2, the Parent Parties on the one hand and Company Parties on the other hand (each an “Indemnifying Party”), shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each other Party (each an “Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, losses or liability (the “Damages”), directly or indirectly, asserted against or incurred by an Indemnitee by reason of or resulting from a material (i) breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein, or (ii) breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in any Exhibit executed and delivered at the Closing; provided, however, that the Damages shall not exceed the aggregate $100,000 (the “Cap”).

such proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in such proceeding; or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnitee, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without the Indemnitee’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Indemnifying Party shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnitee is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

Waiver of Compliance; Consents. Any failure of a Party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be expressly waived in writing by the Party entitled hereby to such compliance, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition will not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Whenever this Agreement requires or permits the consent by or on behalf of a Party, such consent will be given in writing in the same manner as for waivers of compliance.
