9.7 PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION —THIRD PARTY CLAIMS
     Notice of Claim. In the event a Party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall become aware of any loss (“Loss”) or potential Loss which the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) would be bound to indemnify pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, specifying whether the Claim arises as a result of a claim by a third party against the Indemnified Party (hereinafter, a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the Claim does not so arise (hereinafter, a “Direct Claim”). The Claim shall further specify with reasonable details (to the extent such information is available) the factual basis for and the amount of the Claim, together with copy of any relevant documents to this extent available. Losses shall be indemnified directly to the Indemnified Party, subject to the following Sections.
Direct Claims. With respect to any Direct Claim, following receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have 30 (thirty) days to make such investigation of the Claim as it considers necessary or desirable and respond in writing to the Indemnified Party. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Claim, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If the Parties agree within 15 (fifteen) days from expiration of the term to respond granted to the Indemnifying Party hereunder (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) on any amount to be paid by the Indemnifying Party for such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay the Indemnified Party the full agreed amount of the Claim, failing which the matter shall be referred to arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Article XIII hereof.
Third Party Claims. Upon the Indemnified Party informing the Indemnifying Party of the existence of any event or claim which may give rise to a Third Party Claim against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in the defense, negotiation or settlement of such Third Party Claim, it being understood that the defense shall be conducted jointly but, as far as strategic initiatives are concerned, the ultimate decision shall remain with the Indemnifying Party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the Indemnifying Party’s decision to defend, negotiate and settle any such Claims or otherwise howsoever and whatsoever shall be borne absolutely by the Indemnifying Party.
The Indemnified Party shall not settle any matter which may give rise to the Indemnifying Party’s liability herein without the latter’s prior written consent. Should the Indemnifying Party obtain a monetary settlement proposal from a third party claimant and the Indemnified Party

43


 

refuse to agree to such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall bear the risk of any claim made by such third party in excess of the proposed settlement amount and the Indemnified Party shall be free to conduct the defense, negotiation or settlement. If the Indemnified Party shall have decided not to defend such claim or to settle it in a manner unsatisfactory to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party may, at its sole cost and expense, assume full responsibility for the defense or settlement of such claim, provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall conduct its defense or settlement in a manner which does not cause any further Loss to the Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party regularly consults with the Indemnified Party during such defense or settlement.
9.8 PAYMENT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION
     If the Indemnifying Party pays to the Indemnified Party an amount for any Loss and the Indemnified Party subsequently recovers (whether by way of settlement, insurance, payable, discount, credit, counterclaim or otherwise) from a third party a sum which corresponds, partially or wholly, to such Loss, the Indemnified Party shall promptly repay to the Indemnifying Party such amount as was recovered from the third party, less all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in recovering that sum from the third party and less all Taxes due by the Indemnified Party on, or otherwise resulting from, such recovered sum. The Indemnified Party’s obligation to repay pursuant to the preceding sentence shall apply only to the extent the amounts recovered from all sources (including the Indemnifying Party and any tax benefit) in connection with a particular Loss, less the deductions referred to in the preceding sentence, exceed the amount of the Loss sustained.
     Any indemnity payment by the Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be deemed to constitute damages and not a reduction or increase in the Closing Purchase Price.
9.9 LIMITATIONS ON AMOUNT.
     (a) SELLERS shall have no liability under Section 9.2 until the total Damages exceeds Euro 100.000,00 (one hundred thousand) in the aggregate and euro 10.000,00 (ten thousand) for each single event.
     (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, under no circumstances will SELLERS’ aggregate liability to TOG exceed the amount of Euro 15,000,000 (fifteen million).
     (c) Notwithstanding, anything in this Agreement to the contrary, under no circumstances will TOG’s aggregate liability to SELLERS exceed the amount of Euro 15,000,000 (fifteen million).
