      10.4 Indemnification Procedure.

           (a) Promptly after the incurrence of any Damages by the party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “ Indemnified Party ”), including, without limitation, any claim by a third party described in Section 10.4(d) hereof, which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the party from which indemnification is sought (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) a certificate (the “ Claim Certificate ”), which Claim Certificate shall:

                (i)  state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued Damages, or anticipates that it shall incur liability for Damages for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

                (ii)  specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Damages included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or properly accrued, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

           (b) In case the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall, within 10 Business Days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Claim Certificate, deliver to the Indemnified Party a written notice to such effect and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within the 10 Business Day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such written objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party shall have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party each have the right to bring a legal action or legal proceeding pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.9.

           (c) Claims for Damages specified in any Claim Certificate to which an Indemnifying Party shall not object in writing within 10 Business Days of receipt of such Claim Certificate, claims for Damages covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 10.4(b) and claims for Damages the validity and amount of which have been the subject of a final and binding judicial determination, the time for appeal having expired, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “ Agreed Claims .” Within 10 Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claims, subject to the limitations of this Section 10, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by cashier’s check or wire transfer to the bank account or accounts designated in writing by the Indemnified Party not less than one Business Day prior to such payment.

           (d) Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim against any Indemnified Party that in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party may result in the incurrence by such Indemnified Party of Damages for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to

indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice describing in reasonable detail such claim and such Indemnifying Party may, at its option, assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such claim (including the employment of counsel, who shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party) at such Indemnifying Party’s expense. Any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to provide prompt notice shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such claim). Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed, within 15 Business Days after having been notified by the Indemnified Party of the existence of such claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such claim or to notify the Indemnified Party in writing that it shall assume the defense of such claim, (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnifying Party which are not available to, or the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of, the Indemnified Party. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any settlement of any such action or claim effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, but if settled with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 10. The Indemnified Party agrees to fully cooperate in all matters covered by this Section 10.4(d), including, as required, the furnishing of books and records, personnel and witnesses and the execution of documents, in each case as necessary for any defense of such third party claim and at no cost to the Indemnifying Party.

      10.5 Certain Offsets. For purposes of this Section 10, “Damages” shall be net of any insurance or other recoveries payable to the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification. The parties agree to treat any payment pursuant to this Section 10 (other than the portion treated as interest) as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

      10.6 Exclusive Remedy. After the Closing Date, this Section 10 shall provide the exclusive remedy for any of the matters addressed herein or other claims arising out of this Agreement.

SECTION 11. Miscellaneous Provisions

      11.1 Further Assurances.

      11.2 Fees and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expense.
