(a)

If a party entitled to be indemnified under this Article (the “Indemnitee”) shall incur any Damages or determines that it is likely to incur any Damages, and believes that it is entitled to be indemnified against such Damages by the other party hereunder (the “Indemnitor”), such Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to the Indemnitor of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnitor such information with respect thereto as the Indemnitor may reasonably request (“Indemnitee’s Certificate”), but failure to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnitor of any liability hereunder only to the extent that the Indemnitor has suffered actual prejudice thereby.

	(b)	In case the Indemnitor shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnitee in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Indemnitee’s Certificate, the Indemnitor shall within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnitor of such Indemnitee’s Certificate deliver to the Indemnitee a written notice to such effect and the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall, within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnitee of such written objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnitor shall have so objected. If the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. In the event the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor do not succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any such claims (“Disputed Claims”), the Disputed Claims will be resolved in accordance with Section 10.8(b) herein.

	(c)	Claims for Damages specified in any Indemnitee’s Certificate to which an Indemnitor shall not object in writing and claims for Damages resolved in accordance with Section 7.4(b) and Section 10.8(b) are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims.”

	(d)	Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim against any Indemnitee that, in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnitee, will result in the incurrence by such Indemnitee of Damages for which such Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice describing in reasonable detail such claim and such Indemnitor may, at its option, assume the defense of the Indemnitee against such claim (including the employment of counsel, who shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee, and the payment of expenses). Failure to receive notice from Indemnitee shall not amend any rights, obligations or limitations set forth in this Article. Any Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the Indemnitor shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (i) the Indemnitor shall have failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified by the Indemnitee of the existence of such claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such claim, (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and Indemnitor and such Indemnitee shall have furnished Indemnitor an opinion of counsel to the effect that there may be one or more legal defenses available to Indemnitee which are different from or additional to those available to Indemnitor, in which event Indemnitor shall only be responsible for the fees and expenses of one separate firm of attorneys for all Indemnitees. If the Indemnitor, within a reasonable time after notice of any such third party claim, fails in good faith to defend the Indemnitee against such claim, the Indemnitee shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnitor, subject always to the right of the Indemnitor to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof. No Indemnitor shall be liable to indemnify any Indemnitee for any settlement or compromise of any such action or claim effected without the consent of the Indemnitor which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; but if settled with the written consent of the Indemnitor, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff or claimant in any such action, the Indemnitor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment (but only to the extent provided in this Article).

Section 7.5 Payment of Agreed Claims. Upon the occurrence of any event or existence of any condition which result in a claim for indemnification under this Article, such party shall initiate a claim under Section 7.4 of this Agreement.
