Indemnified Party, except to the extent that (and only to the extent that)
such failure results in a failure of actual notice to the indemnifying
parties and such indemnifying parties are damaged as a result of such failure
to give notice. In any such action brought against an Indemnified Party, the
indemnifying parties will be entitled to participate therein and, to the
extent that they may wish (and provided that they will have acknowledged in
writing to the Indemnified Party the obligation of the indemnifying parties
to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim or action fully
21
pursuant to this Article VIII and have provided reasonable assurance of their
financial ability to satisfy such obligations), to assume the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. After notice
from the indemnifying parties to the Indemnified Party of its election to
assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying parties will not
be liable to the Indemnified Parties under this Article VIII for any legal or
other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection
with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation;
PROVIDED that the Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of such Indemnified
Party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by
the indemnifying parties, (ii) such Indemnified Party will have been advised
by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying parties that there may
be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying parties and in the
reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such Indemnified
Party to employ separate counsel, or (iii) the indemnifying parties have
failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in which case, if such Indemnified
Party notifies the indemnifying parties in writing that it elects to employ
separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying parties, such
indemnifying parties will not have the right to assume the defense of such
action on behalf of such Indemnified Party. The indemnifying parties will not
be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without their
written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), but if
settled with its written consent, the indemnifying parties will indemnify and
hold harmless any Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by
reason of such settlement in accordance with this Article VIII. The
indemnifying parties will not settle any action without the consent of the
Indemnified Party unless such settlement is for money damages only and
contains an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party.

indemnity payable pursuant to this Article 8 by either Harveys and HLVMC, on
