Within the indemnification limitations set forth in Section 9.02 above, upon receipt by Purchaser of a written notice of any action, suit, proceedings, claim, demand or assessment against it which might give rise to a claim for Damages, Purchaser shall give written notice thereof to the Seller indicating the nature of such claim and the basis therefor; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not affect the Purchaser's rights provided hereunder except to the extent that the Seller's rights shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Seller shall have the right, at its option, exercisable within 10 days after receipt of such notice to assume the defense of, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Purchaser as to which the Seller shall have acknowledged the right of the Purchaser to payment by the Seller, subject to the next sentence. If the Seller shall undertake to compromise, settle or defend any such asserted liability, it shall promptly notify the Purchaser of its intention to do so, and the Purchaser agrees to cooperate fully with the Seller and its counsel in the compromise or settlement of, or defense against, any such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Seller shall not settle any such asserted liability without the written consent of the Purchaser, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding an election to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, the Purchaser shall have the right to employ separate 19 counsel and to participate in the defense of such action or proceeding, and the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel shall be payable by the Seller, if (A) the Seller shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser to represent the Seller within 20 days after notice to the Seller of the institution of such action or proceeding or (B) the Seller shall have authorized the Purchaser to employ separate counsel at the Seller's expense and the Seller shall promptly assume and hold the Purchaser harmless from and against the full amount of any Damage resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Seller shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense but shall pay for the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of Purchaser's legal counsel if (i) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) Purchaser has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other; (iii) the Seller failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim; (iv) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against Purchaser; or (v) Purchaser reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be detrimental to or injure the reputation or future business prospects of Purchaser. If the Purchaser shall undertake to compromise, settle or defend any asserted liability in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, it shall promptly notify the Seller of its intention to do so, and the Seller agrees to cooperate fully with the Purchaser and its counsel in the compromise or settlement of, or defense against, any such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not settle any such asserted liability without the written consent of the Seller, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, the Purchaser and its counsel shall cooperate with the Seller and its counsel. The Purchaser shall have the right at its own expense to participate in the defense of such asserted liability. Section 9.05. Method of Payment. If a payment is due from Seller to Purchaser for Damages, in addition to any other rights Purchaser may have against Seller under this Agreement regarding the collection of such Damages, Purchaser shall at its option have the right, in accordance with the procedure outlined below, to collect such Damages by offsetting the amount of such Damages against the Seller Note (the "Right of Setoff"). If Purchaser desires to exercise its Right of Setoff, it must first provide Seller with 10 days prior written notice (the "Setoff Notice") setting forth the amount of Damages it desires to offset (the "Setoff Amount") and a brief description of the facts which gave rise to the Damages. If, within such 10 day period, Purchaser does not receive a written notice from Seller (an "Objection Notice") setting forth Seller's objection to either the facts giving rise to the Damages or the amount of Damages, Purchaser shall be allowed to exercise its Right of Setoff pursuant to the Setoff Notice. If, within such 10 day period, Purchaser receives an Objection Notice, the parties agree to meet within 20 days of the receipt of such Objection Notice to make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute set forth in the Objection Notice. If after such meeting the parties are unable to resolve such dispute, the Purchaser agrees to pay the Setoff Amount (on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Seller Note) to an escrow agent pursuant to an Escrow Agreement in a form to be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser. Such amount shall be released by the escrow agent upon the earlier of either (i) the joint direction of Purchaser and Seller, or (ii) the ruling of an arbitrator pursuant to an arbitration in accordance with Section 12.08 hereof. 20 ARTICLE X. TERMINATION Section 10.01. Termination Events. This Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing: (a) by mutual written consent of the Seller and Purchaser; (b) by the Seller or Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before April 30, 2005; provided, however, that (i) the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.01(b) shall not be available to the Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, if such party's failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement is the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Transactions to occur on or before such date; (ii) if the failure to close by such date is a result of Seller's failure to provide Purchaser with full and complete access on a timely basis to Seller's diligence materials in accordance with Section 5.07 hereof, such date shall automatically be extended to May 31, 2005; and (iii) if the failure to close by such date is not due to either parties failure to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement, the parties agree to meet in good faith on or before April 30, 2005, to use their best efforts to mutually agree upon a reasonable extension of such date; (c) by the Seller so long as the Seller is not then in material breach of its obligations hereunder, if any of the Conditions to Closing set forth in Article VIII shall not have been satisfied and are incapable of being satisfied by April 30, 2005; and (d) by Purchaser so long as Purchaser is not then in material breach of its obligations hereunder, if any of the Conditions to Closing set forth in Article VII shall not have been satisfied and are incapable of being satisfied by April 30, 2005.
