(b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of written notice of the assertion of a claim by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against an Indemnifying Party under this Section 7, the Indemnified Party shall give reasonably prompt written notice thereof in the form of a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.3(a). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to such Third Party Claim.

 

 

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a Claim Notice given by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any such Third Party Claim, it shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within a term of thirty (30) days following the date of delivery by the Indemnified Party of the Claim Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim (the “Dispute Period”), notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so; provided, that such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party and, in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Indemnified Party, cannot reasonably be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such injunction or other equitable relief portion of such Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle with or otherwise handle any Third Party Claim within the Dispute Period, the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any Judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such Judgment, compromise or settlement involves solely the payment of money, without any finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party.

 

(d) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to, or does not elect within the Dispute Period to, defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification from the Indemnifying Party for any and all Losses (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7 (including Section 7.4)) based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall not consent to the settlement of, or the entry of any Judgment arising out of or in connection with, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

(e) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any Third Party Claim, including the retention and, upon request, provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanations of any materials provided hereunder in a timely manner.
