right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party
with respect to such different defenses); or (iv) representation of such
Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such
proceeding, in any of which events the fees and expenses of one additional
counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.&#160; The Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise any action
or consent to the entry of a judgment that:&#160;
(a)&nbsp;does not provide for the claimant to give an unconditional
release to the Indemnified Party in respect of the Asserted Liability;
(b)&nbsp;involves relief other than monetary damages; (c)&nbsp;places
restrictions or conditions on the operation of the business of the Indemnified
Party or any of its Affiliates; or (d)&nbsp;involves any finding or admission
of liability or of any violation of Law.&#160;
The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
claim or action effected without its written consent; <u>provided</u> that such
consent is not unreasonably withheld.&#160;
After payment of any Asserted Liability by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnified Party, if requested by the Indemnifying Party, shall assign to the
Indemnifying Party all rights the Indemnified Party may have against any
applicable account debtor or other responsible Person in respect of the
Asserted Liability.&#160; If the Indemnifying
Party chooses to defend any Asserted Liability, the Indemnified Party shall
make available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents
within its control that are necessary or appropriate for such defense.&#160; Any expenses of any Indemnified Party for
which indemnification is available hereunder shall be paid upon written demand
therefor.</p>
