If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any commercially reasonable settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third-Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay to the Indemnified Party the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim.
8.3.5    No Admission or Settlement by Indemnified Party
Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not (unless contrary to Section 8.2.6(d) or relating to Tax) settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
8.3.6    Information
The party conducting the defense of any Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 8.3 (the “Defending Party”) shall ensure that the other party will be informed promptly of any information, and shall be provided with copies of any correspondence or documents held by the Defending Party which are material to the proceedings, negotiations or appeals (except to the extent this is impossible without waiving legal privilege in respect thereof). The Sellers and the Purchaser shall comply with the reasonable requests of the other for arrangements or procedures to maintain confidentiality or legal privilege in relation to any matters arising out of or relating to such proceedings, negotiations or appeals.
8.4    Time Bars
8.4.1    Warranty Claims
No action or claim may be brought for indemnity in respect of any breach by the Sellers of any of the representations or warranties set out in Article 5, unless the claim,


29


describing in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and the calculation of the amount claimed, is made in writing to the Sellers within forty five (45) Business Days (except for claims under Sections 5.1 and 5.2) of the date on which the Purchaser or its Affiliates became aware of the breach (which awareness shall mean knowledge of the boards of directors of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or the general counsel of the Purchaser of the facts giving rise to such claim, the consequence that such facts could give rise to a claim for indemnification, and in any event, for any and all claims pursuant to this Agreement, prior to February 28, 2013.
8.4.2    Other Claims
No action or claim may be brought for indemnity for any breach by a party of its covenants or obligations in this Agreement or the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser under this Agreement unless the claim, describing in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and the calculation of the amount claimed, is made in writing to the Indemnifying Party within forty five (45) Business Days of the date on which the Indemnified Party became aware (which awareness in case of the Purchaser shall mean awareness of the boards of directors of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or the General Counsel of the Purchaser) of the breach and, with respect to obligations to be performed prior to the Closing, sixty (60) Business Days from the Sellers’ notice, and in any event prior to February 28, 2013.
8.4.3    Enforcement Proceedings
All claims duly made within the applicable period in accordance with Sections 8.4.1 and 8.4.2 shall become time-barred five (5) months after the expiration of said period, unless proceedings to enforce such claim have been commenced in accordance with Section 10.9 prior to such date.

8.5    Exclusive Remedies
Each Party acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy (Sw. påföljd) with respect to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification and other provisions set forth in this Article 8 or elsewhere in this Agreement and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, any and all other remedies (including but not limited to any right to rescind this Agreement) it may have against the other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
8.6    Non-Mandatory Legislation
For the avoidance of doubt, the time bars, notice periods and other limitations in this Section 8 shall apply instead of any provisions limiting a party’s right to make a claim for breach of representation or warranty according to the Swedish Sale of Goods Act of 1990 or other applicable non-mandatory legislation.
