If any lawsuit enforcement action or any attempt to collect on an alleged liability is filed against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice thereof shall be given to the Indemnitor within ten (10) business days after receipt of notice or other date by which action must be taken; provided that the failure of any Indemnitee to give timely notice shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnitor demonstrates damage caused by such failure.

Asset Purchase Agreement - Page 15






trial and defense of such lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom, but the fees and expenses of its legal counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee, except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor in writing, (ii) the Indemnitor has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict of any material issue between the position of the Indemnitor and the position of such Indemnitee, in which case the Indemnitor shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate legal counsel.

Any claim for which notice has been given prior to the expiration of the Survival Date shall not be barred hereunder.
Section 1.6Right to Offset. In the event that the Purchaser is entitled to indemnification in accordance with this Article XI, including the payment by the Purchaser of any debts or liabilities resulting from the purchase of the Purchased Assets which were incurred prior to the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall have the right to offset any such amount from any obligations that are then due and payable to the Company by the Purchaser.
