Indemnifying Parties under this Article V, the Indemnified Party shall
immediately notify the Indemnifying Parties who shall assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to said
Indemnified Party and the payment of all expenses; except that any delay or
failure to so notify said Indemnifying Parties shall only relieve the
Indemnifying Parties of its or his obligations hereunder to the extent, if at
all, that they are materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure.
The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any
such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of
such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

required by said Indemnifying Parties; or

defense and employ counsel.
Without the express prior written consent of said Indemnified Party,

thereafter the Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to the full amount of all
claims without deduction of $100,000.
5.5 Limitation on Indemnification. The Buyer shall not be entitled to
seek indemnification hereunder at any time subsequent to the expiration of the
