7.2      Defense of Third-Party Claims . An Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to Seller or Buyer, as applicable (the “ Indemnifying Party ”), of the commencement or assertion of any action, proceeding, demand, or claim by a third party (collectively, a “ third-party action ”) in respect of which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder. Any failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it, he, or she may have to such Indemnified Party under this Article VII unless the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of, settle, or otherwise dispose of such third-party action on such terms as it deems appropriate; provided, however , that:

(a)      The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of such third-party action ( provided, however , that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the attorneys’ fees of the Indemnified Party if (i) the employment of separate counsel shall have been authorized in writing by any the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such third-party action, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to have charge of such third-party action, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall have advised the Indemnified Party in writing, with a copy delivered to the Indemnifying Party, that there is a material conflict of interest that could violate applicable standards of professional conduct to have common counsel);

(b)      The Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before entering into or making any settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of the validity of such third-party action or any liability in respect thereof if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment, injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party or if, in the opinion of the Indemnified Party, such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment could have a material adverse effect on its business;

(c)      The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such third-party action; and

(d)      The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of any third-party action (i) as to which the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense within a reasonable length of time or (ii) to the extent the third-party action seeks an order, injunction, or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, would materially adversely affect the business, operations, assets, or financial condition of the Indemnified Party; provided, however , that the Indemnified Party shall make no settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment that would give rise to liability on the part of any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party.

The Parties shall extend reasonable cooperation in connection with the defense of any third-party action pursuant to this Article VII and, in connection therewith, shall furnish such records, information, and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested.

7.3      Direct Claims . In any case in which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder which is not subject to Section 7.2 because no third-party action is involved, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any Indemnified Costs which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms hereof. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a) , the failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification shall not amount to a waiver of such claim unless the resulting delay materially prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim.

7.4      Limitations . The following provisions of this Section 7.4 shall limit the indemnification obligations hereunder:

(a)      The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Indemnified Costs pursuant to this Article VII unless a written claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto on or before 5:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however , that written claims for indemnification (i) for Indemnified Costs arising out of (x) a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 4.1 , 4.2 , 4.6 , 4.7 , 5.1 , 5.2 and

5.5 (the “ Fundamental Representations ”) or (y) an Excluded Liability may be made at any time and (ii) for Indemnified Costs arising out of a breach of any covenant may be made at any time prior to the expiration of such covenant according to its terms.

(b)      An Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay for any Indemnified Costs under this Article VII until the amount of all such Indemnified Costs exceeds, in the aggregate, $500,000, in which event Indemnifying Party shall pay or be liable for all such Indemnified Costs from the first dollar. The aggregate liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Article VII shall not exceed $17,500,000. The limitations in the previous two sentences shall not apply to Indemnified Costs to the extent such costs arise out of (i) a breach of any Fundamental Representations or (ii) an Excluded Liability.

(c)      Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, after the Closing Date, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Buyer’s and the other Buyer Indemnified Parties’ and the Seller’s and the other Seller Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the Indemnified Costs shall be in accordance with, and limited by, the provisions set forth in this Article VII . The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the foregoing is not the remedy for and does not limit the Parties’ remedies for matters covered by the indemnification provisions contained in the Ancillary Documents. Any indemnification obligation of the Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Parties on the one hand, or the Buyer to the Seller Indemnified Parties on the other hand, pursuant to this Article VII shall be reduced by an amount equal to any indemnification recovery by such Indemnified Parties pursuant to the other Ancillary Documents between the Parties to the extent that such other indemnification recovery arises out of the same event or circumstance giving rise to the indemnification obligation of the Seller or the Buyer, respectively, hereunder.
