 8.2 Limits on Indemnification. 

(a) Absent fraud or willful or intentional misconduct, the indemnification and contribution provided by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to
Section 8.1 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any Losses. 
 (b) No indemnity claim under this Article VIII is payable until
it has been established in a final non-appealable order, judgment or adjudication established pursuant to the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 10.7. The amount of any payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties
