Should the Seller be required to disclose any such information in response to an Order or as otherwise required by Law or administrative process, the Seller shall inform the Purchaser in writing of such request or obligation as soon as possible after the Seller is informed of it and, if possible, before any information is disclosed, so that a protective order or other appropriate remedy may be obtained by the Purchaser.

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION
7.1 Indemnification Obligations.
(a) Indemnification by the Seller. The Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) against any and all Losses suffered, incurred or sustained by any of them or to which any of them becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to the following:
-15-
(i) any breach of the representations or warranties made by the Seller in this Agreement, or failure or default by the Seller with regard to any of the covenants or agreements made by the Seller in this Agreement; or
(ii) in the event that the Closing occurs, the Retained Liabilities; or
(iii) any fees, expenses, or other payments incurred or owned by the Seller or the Business to any agent, broker, investment banker or other Person retained or employed by any of them in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and his agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), against any and all Losses suffered, incurred or sustained by it or to which it becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to the following:
(i) any breach of the representations or warranties made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or failure or default by the Purchaser with regard to any of the covenants or agreements made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements; or
(ii) in the event that the Closing occurs, the Assumed Liabilities; or
(iii) any fees, expenses, or other payments incurred or owed by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to any agent, broker, investment banker or other Person retained or employed by any of them in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
7.2 Method of Asserting Claims. Claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section 7.1 will be asserted and resolved as follows:
(a) Third-Party Claims. In the event that any claim or demand in respect of which an Indemnified Party might seek indemnification under Section 7.1 is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than the Seller, the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend is prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party accepts or disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 7.1 and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim.
(i) Defense by Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party accepts its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 7.1 and desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim pursuant to this Section 7.2, then the Indemnifying Party will
-16-
have the right to defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third-Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be vigorously and diligently prosecuted or defended by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party in its sole discretion in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party will not be indemnified in full pursuant to Section 7.1). Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, the Indemnifying Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest.
(ii) Defense by Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party accepts its liability to the Indemnified Party and desires to defend the Third-Party Claim, if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but any time thereafter fails to prosecute or defend vigorously and diligently or settle the Third-Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give any notice whatsoever within the Dispute Period, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third-Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. If requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party in contesting any Third-Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.2, if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in Section 7.2(a)(iii), the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s defense pursuant to this Section 7.2 or of the Indemnifying Party’s participation therein at the Indemnified Party’s request. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.2, and the Indemnifying Party will bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.
(iii) Acceptance by Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it accepts its indemnification liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim under Section 7.1 or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the Loss identified in the Claim Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 7.1 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party timely disputes its liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will initially seek to negotiate a resolution of such dispute before commencing any litigation proceedings.
-17-
(b) Non-Third Party Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under Section 7.1 against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the Loss identified in the Indemnity Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 7.1 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will initially seek to negotiate a resolution of such dispute before commencing any litigation proceedings.
7.3 Further Items Relating to Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VII, the right of any Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Article VII shall be subject to the following terms:
(a) In the event the Closing occurs, the aggregate liability of the Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(a) and the aggregate liability of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.2(b) for claims for indemnification under this Article VII shall not exceed the Purchase Price.
(b) Any indemnity payment made under this Agreement following the Closing shall be treated by the parties hereto as a purchase price adjustment, and the parties agree to report such payments consistent therewith.
