Remedies
6.1 Indemnification by Seller. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and shall reimburse Purchaser for any losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Purchaser and arising after the Closing Date which result from any material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Seller under this Agreement.

6.3. Notice of Claim. If any action is brought against any person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 (a “Claimant”) in respect of a claim under Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, as applicable (an “Indemnifiable Claim”), the Claimant shall promptly notify Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, in writing of the institution of such action (but the failure so to notify shall not relieve Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”) from any liability the Indemnifying Party may have except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party). Unless otherwise agreed to by the Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, the Indemnifying Party shall assume and direct the defense of such action, including the employment of counsel, and all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with defending or settling the Indemnifiable Claim shall be borne solely by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the Claimant in the exercise of its reasonable judgment and that the Indemnifying Party shall not compromise any claim without the prior written consent of the Claimant, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Notwithstanding an election by the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, the Claimant shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such action or proceeding, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel (and shall pay such fees, costs and expenses at least quarterly), if (a) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Claimant would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (b) the defendants in, or targets of, any such action or proceeding include both a Claimant and the Indemnifying Party, and the Claimant shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or to other Claimants which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Claimant); or (c) the Indemnifying Party shall authorize the Claimant to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with a Claimant’s cooperation shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. In any event, the Claimant shall have the right at its own expense to participate in the defense of such asserted liability.
6.4 Limitation of Liability. In no event will either Purchaser or Seller be liable to the other party to this Agreement for incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profit or loss of business or business opportunity, regardless of the form of action whether in contract, tort or otherwise.
