following procedures shall be followed with respect to all claims for
indemnification under this Agreement and all obligations of indemnification
hereunder shall be subject to compliance by the party to be indemnified with
such procedures:
(a) The indemnitee shall give prompt written notice to the
indemnitor of any claim that might give rise to a claim by the
indemnitee against the indemnitor pursuant to this Agreement,
stating the nature and basis of such claims and the estimated
amounts thereof.
(b) If any action, suit or proceeding is brought against an
indemnitee with respect to which an indemnitor may have
liability pursuant to this Agreement, the action, suit or
proceeding shall be defended (including all proceedings on
appeal or for review that counsel for the indemnitor shall
deem appropriate) by, and may be settled or compromised by,
the indemnitor, upon (X) the written acknowledgment by the
indemnitor that it has the obligation to indemnify the
indemnitee under the indemnity agreements contained herein and
(Y) the making of reasonably adequate provisions by the
indemnitor to ensure the indemnitee of the ability of the
indemnitor to satisfy its obligation hereunder. Prior to
receipt by the indemnitee of the indemnitee of the
indemnitor's written acknowledgment and provision as required
by clauses (X) and (Y) of the preceding sentence, the
indemnitee shall have the right to contest or defend (and, if
the indemnitee has not received such written acknowledgment
and provision within 30 business days after the indemnitee has
provided written notice as required by Section 8.2 above, to
settle or compromise) such action, suit or proceeding at the
expense of the indemnitor. In addition to the foregoing, the

any action, suit or proceeding being defended by the
indemnitor pursuant hereto, but the fees and expenses of such
Page 13 of 18
<PAGE>
counsel shall be at the indemnitee's own expense unless (i)
the employment of such counsel and the payment of such fees
and expenses shall have been specifically authorized by the
indemnitor in connection with the defense of such action, suit
or proceeding or (ii) the indemnitee shall have reasonably
concluded and notified the indemnitor that there may be
specific defenses available to it that are different from or
in addition to those available to the indemnitor or that such
action, suit or proceeding involves or could have an effect
upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreements
contained herein, in either of which events (A) the
indemnitor, to the extent made necessary by such defenses,
shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action,
suit or proceeding on behalf of the indemnitee and (B) only
that portion of such fees and expenses reasonably related to
matters covered by the indemnity agreements contained herein
shall be borne by the indemnitor. The indemnitor shall keep
the indemnitee fully informed of such action, suit or
proceeding at all stages thereof whether or not the indemnitee
is so represented. The indemnitor shall make available to the
indemnitee and its attorneys and accountants all books and
records of the indemnitor relating to such proceedings or
litigation, and the parties hereto agree to render to each
other such assistance as they may reasonably require to ensure
the proper and adequate investigation, and the defense or
settlement, of any such action, suit or proceeding.
(c) The indemnitee shall be entitled to compromise or settle all
actions, suits or proceedings as to which the indemnitor does
not have or does not exercise the right to assume the defense,
without consent of the indemnitor, PROVIDED, that it acts
reasonably and in good faith in doing so. The indemnitee shall
keep the indemnitor fully informed of such action, suit or
proceeding at all stages thereof.
(d) Purchaser shall have the right to set off against amounts held
in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement any amounts paid

connection with such action, suit, or proceeding, including

level; provided, however, that no set off shall be permitted
unless and until the Seller has had an opportunity to
negotiate a compromise or settlement related to said claim.
