 (a) Morris Communications agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless Morris Publishing, and its affiliates, their respective members, officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns and agents and each other person, if any, controlling Morris Publishing, or any of its affiliates (Morris Publishing and

 4.3 Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this Article 4 is referred
to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article 4 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. All claims by any Indemnified Party under this Article 4 shall be asserted and
resolved as follows: 
  
 (a) In the event that
any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, said Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness
notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, specifying the basis for such claim or demand, and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then determinable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final
amount of such claim and demand) (the “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that any failure to give such Claim Notice will not be deemed a waiver of any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying
Party are actually prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of such claim or demand and shall retain counsel (who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) to represent the
Indemnified Party and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel with regard thereto; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to the date on which it receives written notice from the Indemnifying
Party designating such counsel, to retain counsel, whose fees and expenses shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, to file any motion, answer or other pleading and take such other action which it reasonably deems necessary to protect its
interests or those of the Indemnifying Party until the date on which the Indemnified Party receives such notice from the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party shall retain such counsel, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain
its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceedings or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the
fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Indemnified Party (except to the extent the Indemnified Party retained counsel to protect its (or the Indemnifying Party’s) rights prior to the selection of counsel by the Indemnifying Party).
If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party defends. A claim or demand may not be settled by the
Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) unless, as part of such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall receive a full and unconditional release reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend a claim or demand, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle such claim or demand without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. In each instance, the Indemnified
Party and its representatives shall have the right to be kept fully informed by the Indemnifying Party and its legal counsel with respect to any legal proceedings. 
  
 (b) In the event any Indemnified Party shall have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder which
does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from it by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall send a Claim Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party.
