                  hereof by Licensee which has remained uncured for thirty (30)
                  days following notice of such breach from Licensor or (b) the
                  Business is completely discontinued; provided, however, that
                  if any such event shall occur and remain uncured after such
                  initial 30 day cure period, then, if at the time of such
                  breach, Licensor owned a majority of outstanding equity
                  ownership of Licensee and at such time the Tune Stockholder
                  Group met the Tune Minimum Condition (as defined in the
                  Partnership Agreement) then, Licensor shall give further
                  written notice thereof to the Tune Stockholder Group and
                  Licensee, and Tune shall in accordance with the provisions of
                  the Partnership Agreement have an additional period of thirty
                  (30) days to effect such cure and Licensor shall not be
                  entitled to terminate this Agreement until the conclusion of
                  such additional 30 day cure period.

         D.       Effect of Termination.

                  (i) Termination of Rights. Upon expiration or termination of
                  this Agreement for any reason, Licensee's right to use the
                  Licensed Products, the Documentation and the Third Party
                  Products will terminate immediately, and this Agreement shall
                  cease, except that all obligations of the parties under this
                  Agreement which accrue or are due with respect to periods
                  prior to, or as of, such termination or expiration, and all
                  obligations which expressly survive the expiration or
                  termination of this Agreement shall continue in full force and
                  effect subsequent to and notwithstanding the expiration or
                  termination of this Agreement.

                  (ii) Use of Licensed Products. Upon expiration or termination
                  of this Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall discontinue
                  immediately all use of the

                                                                               8

                  Licensed Products, the Documentation and the Third Party
                  Products, cooperate with Licensor and any of its appointed
                  agents to inform the appropriate authorities of such
                  termination and destroy all materials that contain, refer to
                  or relate to the Licensed Products, the Documentation and the
                  Third Party Products, whether provided to Licensee by Licensor
                  or created or developed by Licensee or by any third party, or
                  shall certify the destruction of all such materials, except to
                  the extent that such materials constitute Licensee
                  Developments as defined in Section 4 (C) above. All rights in
                  the Licensed Products and the Documentation shall remain the
                  property of Licensor upon expiration or termination.

                SECTION 7. REPRESENTATIONS WARRANTIES; DISCLAIMER

         A.       Licensor's Representations and Warranties. Licensor
                  represents and warrants that to the best of Licensor's
                  knowledge, Licensor has the right to grant the rights to the
                  Licensed Products, the Documentation and the Third Party
                  Products which are granted to Licensee herein. EXCEPT AS
                  STATED IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE, THE LICENSED PRODUCTS,
                  DOCUMENTATION AND THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED TO
                  LICENSEE "AS IS," AND LICENSOR MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY
                  KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER INCLUDING,
                  BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WHETHER THE LICENSED PRODUCTS WILL
                  FUNCTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DOCUMENTATION OR ANY RESULTS
                  OBTAINABLE FROM THE USE OF ANY TECHNOLOGY LICENSED TO LICENSEE
                  UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL EXPRESS OR
                  IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
                  PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY
                  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

         B.       Licensee's Representations and Warranties. Licensee represents
                  and warrants that:

                  (i) Licensee is a limited liability company duly formed,
                  validly existing and in good standing as a limited liability
                  company under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the
                  requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its
                  assets and its businesses as currently being conducted.

                  (ii) Licensee has the requisite power and authority to enter
                  into and perform this Agreement; the execution, delivery and
                  performance by Licensee of this Agreement have been duly
                  authorized by all required action on its part and, if
                  required, by its sole member, and this Agreement has been duly
                  executed and delivered by it.

                  (iii) This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation
                  of Licensee enforceable against Licensee in accordance with
                  its terms.

                  (iv) Licensee shall not make any direct or indirect use of the
                  Licensed Products, Documentation or Third Party Products other
                  than as permitted in this Agreement.

         C.       No Right to Extend Warranties. LICENSEE IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO,
                  AND SHALL NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTY ON BEHALF OF LICENSOR, EXPRESS
                  OR IMPLIED, TO ANY PERSON CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF OR THE
                  RESULTS TO BE OBTAINED WITH THE TECHNOLOGY LICENSED TO
                  LICENSEE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

                             SECTION 8. INFRINGEMENT

         A.       Prevention of Infringement of Third-Party Rights. In the event
                  that the use of any Licensed Product, Documentation or Third
                  Party Product results, or in Licensor's reasonable opinion is
                  likely to result, in an infringement or violation of any third
                  party's Intellectual Property, or a breach of any license
                  obligation of Licensor with respect to a Third Party Product,
                  Licensor, at its option, may (i) modify the item in question
                  so that it avoids any such infringement, (ii) replace the item
                  in question with an alternative item that avoids such
                  infringement, violation or breach, or (iii) request return of
                  the item in question and terminate the license granted herein
                  with respect thereto, provided, however, that Licensor shall
                  not be obligated to make any expenditure in connection with
                  any of the foregoing, and shall in no event have any liability
                  for any claim of intellectual property infringement or trade
                  secret misappropriation arising out of Licensee's use of the
                  Licensed Products, Documentation or Third Party Products
                  hereunder, or for any claim by Licensee for impairment or loss
                  of use of the item in question due to any such modification,
                  replacement or termination.

         B.       Infringement by Third Parties. Licensee shall promptly notify
                  Licensor of any infringement of Intellectual Property in the
                  Licensed Products or Documentation that come to Licensee's
                  attention. In addition, Licensee undertakes to use its
                  reasonable best efforts to assist and cooperate with Licensor
                  in the prosecution of any lawsuits, legal actions or other
                  proceedings which, in the opinion of Licensor, are necessary
                  or advisable to protect the Licensed Products or the
                  Documentation, including, at Licensor's request and expense,
                  participating in such proceedings as a party; provided,
                  however, that Licensee shall not be required to incur or pay
                  any costs or expenses (other than de minimis amounts)
                  occasioned by such assistance or cooperation, and shall be
                  reimbursed by Licensee for any such expenditures Licensee does
                  make. The right to protect the Licensed Products and the
                  Documentation, as well as the right to determine in all
                  respects the manner of protection, shall at all times rest
                  exclusively with Licensor.

                           SECTION 9. INDEMNIFICATION

         A.       Indemnity by Licensee. Licensee hereby indemnifies Licensor
                  and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and
                  agents of any of the foregoing against all liability, loss,
                  damage, cost, claim or expense, including reasonable
                  attorney's fees, incurred by any such Person by reason of
                  Licensee's use of the Licensed Products, the Documentation or
                  the Third Party Products (to the extent that such liability
                  proximately results from the wrongful conduct of Licensee), or
                  otherwise incurred in the operation of the Business, or by
                  reason of any breach or untruth of Licensee's representations
                  and warranties contained herein or any failure by Licensee to
                  perform any agreement or covenant on its part contained in
                  this Agreement.

         B.       Indemnity by Licensor. Licensor hereby indemnifies Licensee
                  and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and
                  agents of any of the foregoing against all liability, loss,
                  damage, cost, claim or expense, including reasonable
                  attorney's fees, incurred by any such Person by reason of any
                  breach or untruth of Licensor's representations and warranties
                  contained herein or any failure by Licensor to perform any
                  agreement or covenant on its part contained in this Agreement.

         C.       Notice of Claim. Whenever any claim shall arise for
                  indemnification under this Section 9, the party seeking
                  indemnification hereunder for a claim (the "Indemnitee") shall
                  notify the party to provide such indemnification (the
                  "Indemnitor") of the claim and, when known, the facts
                  constituting the basis for such claim, and shall cooperate
                  fully in the defense, settlement or compromise of such claim.
                  The Indemnitee shall have the sole right to select counsel for
                  the defense of such claim and to control the defense,
                  settlement or compromise of such claim, as long as, with
                  respect to a settlement or compromise, such settlement or
                  compromise involves only the payment of money for which the
                  Indemnitee is fully indemnified and includes a full
                  unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all related
                  liability; provided that if, in the reasonable opinion of
                  counsel to Indemnitee, there is a conflict or potential
                  conflict of interest between the Indemnitor, on the one hand,
                  and the Indemnitee, on the other hand, the Indemnitee shall be
                  entitled to direct the defense thereof, but only with respect
                  to such matters so in conflict, and any settlement or
                  compromise of such matters shall be subject to the prior
                  written consent of the Indemnitor (which shall not be
                  unreasonably withheld). The Indemnitor shall have the right to
                  participate in (but not control) the defense of any such
                  claim, with its counsel and at its own expense.
                  Notwithstanding any and all of the foregoing, to the extent
                  that any claim arises out of or is related to the Licensed
                  Products or Documentation or any use of thereof, Licensor
                  shall have the sole right to select counsel for the defense of
                  such claim and to control the defense, settlement or
                  compromise of such claim.

                         SECTION 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS

         A.       Headings. The headings of the Sections and other subdivisions
                  of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and
                  shall not modify, define or limit any of the terms or
                  provisions of this Agreement.

         B.       Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
                  construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the
                  State of New York, without giving effect to any of its
                  conflicts of law provisions.

         C.       Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
                  to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will
                  be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect
                  the intent of the parties and the validity, legality and
                  enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any
                  way be affected or impaired thereby. If necessary to effect
                  the intent of the parties, the parties will negotiate in good
                  faith to amend this Agreement to replace the unenforceable
                  language with enforceable language which as closely as
                  possible reflects such intent.

         D.       Amendments. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by
                  a written amendment signed by each party hereto.

         E.       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
                  counterparts (and all signatures need not be on any one such
                  counterpart), with all such counterparts together constituting
                  one and the same instrument.

         F.       Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement
                  of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
                  supersedes any and all prior agreement and understandings,
                  whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter
                  hereof, including the letter agreement dated May 19, 1999
                  among Viacom, Liberty, and TCI Music.

         G.       No Presumption. This Agreement shall be construed without
                  regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or
                  interpretation against the party drafting or causing any
                  instrument to be drafted.

         H.       Consents and Approvals; Waivers; Remedies. All consents and
                  approvals which may be given under this Agreement shall, as a
                  condition of their effectiveness, be in writing. The granting
                  by a party hereto of any consent to or approval of any act
                  requiring consent or approval under the terms of this
                  Agreement, or the failure on the part of a party to object to
                  any such action taken without the required consent or
                  approval, shall not be deemed a waiver by the party whose
                  consent was required of its right to require such consent or
                  approval for any other act. The observance of any provision of
                  this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a
                  particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively)
                  by the party or parties entitled to enforce such term, but any
                  such waiver shall be effective only if
<PAGE>   12
                                                                              12

                  in a writing signed by the party or parties against which such
                  waiver is to be asserted and only in the specific instance and
                  for the specific purpose for which given. Except as otherwise
                  provided herein, no failure or delay of any party in
                  exercising any power or right under this Agreement shall
                  operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
                  exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
                  discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power,
                  preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
                  of any other right or power.

         I.       Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof
                  shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
                  hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns,
                  but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
                  obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any party hereto
                  (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior
                  written consent of the other party hereto except that
                  immediately after the execution of this Agreement as part of
                  Licensee's initial contribution to the Partnership, Licensee
                  shall assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder
                  (other than its obligation under Section 2 (C)) to the
                  Partnership and the Partnership shall accept and assume the
                  same in accordance with the terms of the VLLC Contribution,
                  Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated as of the date
                  hereof between Licensee and the Partnership, whereupon the
                  Partnership shall be substituted for Licensee in all respects
                  (other than Section 2 (C)) as fully as if it had been an
                  original party hereto. Upon such assignment and assumption,
                  Licensee shall be released from all of its obligations
                  hereunder other than under Section 2 (C). In connection with
                  the Reorganization, the Partnership shall assign all of its
                  rights and obligations hereunder to the corporate successor to
                  all or substantially all of the Partnership's assets pursuant
                  to an assignment and assumption agreement in form and
                  substance reasonably satisfactory to Licensor and such
                  corporate successor shall accept and assume the same. Upon
                  such assignment and assumption, the Partnership shall be
                  released from all of its obligations hereunder.

         J.       Confidentiality. Licensee and its wholly-owned Subsidiaries
                  shall, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause
                  their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys,
                  accountants, contractors and agents (collectively, "AGENTS")
                  to, keep secret and retain in strictest confidence any and all
                  Confidential Information; shall not disclose such Confidential
                  Information, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to
                  cause their respective Agents not to disclose such
                  Confidential Information, to any Person other than employees
                  and Agents of Licensee and said wholly-owned Subsidiaries who
                  need to know such information in connection with activities
                  licensed under this Agreement, except (i) for such disclosures
                  as may be required by law or legal process, disclosures to
                  Licensee's counsel, or disclosures pursuant to any listing
                  agreement with, or the rules or regulations of, any securities
                  exchange on which securities of Licensee or such wholly-owned
                  Subsidiaries are listed or traded (in which event Licensee
                  shall so notify Licensor as promptly as practicable (and, if
                  possible, prior to making such disclosure) and shall seek
                  confidential treatment of such information); (ii) as may be
                  necessary to establish or enforce its rights hereunder; or
                  (iii) with the prior
<PAGE>   13
                                       13

                  written consent of Licensor; and shall not use such
                  Confidential Information, and shall use its reasonable best
                  efforts to cause their respective Agents not to use such
                  Confidential Information, other than in connection with
                  activities licensed hereunder. Licensee and such wholly-owned
                  Subsidiaries further agree to take reasonable steps using at
                  least the same degree of care that they use to protect their
                  own software, technology and information of like sensitivity
                  and importance to the Confidential Information, but no less
                  than reasonable care, to ensure that such Confidential
                  Information is not disclosed, distributed or used in violation
                  of the provisions of this Agreement. For purposes of this
                  Section 10 (J), "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" shall mean (1) the
                  terms of this Agreement and (2) all business and technical
                  information relating to Licensor's businesses, including
                  without limitation all Object Code, Source Code and
                  Documentation for the Subject Products and the Licensed
                  Products, that is proprietary to Licensor or otherwise not
                  available to the general public; provided, however, that such
                  Confidential Information shall not include any information
                  that (a) is or has become generally available to the public
                  other than as a result of a disclosure by Licensee, said
                  wholly-owned Subsidiaries or their respective Agents, (b) has
                  been independently developed by Licensee or said wholly-owned
                  Subsidiaries, or (c) is, or becomes available to Licensee or
                  said wholly-owned Subsidiaries on a non-confidential basis
                  from a third party having no obligation of confidentiality to
                  a party hereto and which has not itself received such
                  information directly or indirectly in breach of any such
                  obligation of confidentiality.

         K.       Equitable Relief. Licensee acknowledges that the Licensed
                  Products and Documentation are of a unique and original
                  character giving them peculiar value, the loss of which cannot
                  be compensated in damages in an action at law. Licensee
                  further agrees and acknowledges that, in addition to all other
                  rights that Licensor may have, Licensor shall be entitled as a
                  matter of right without further notice to Licensee, to obtain
                  injunctive and/or other equitable relief as may be provided by
                  law against any threatened, potential or actual breach by
                  Licensee of any of the provisions hereof.

         L.       Third Party Beneficiary. For so long as the Tune Stockholder
                  Group meets the Tune Minimum Condition, TCI Music shall be a
                  third party beneficiary of Licensor's obligations to the
                  Partnership hereunder insofar as and only to the extent that
                  it shall be entitled to enforce the Partnership's rights
                  hereunder in a separate cause of action for the benefit of the
                  Partnership. The Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless
                  TCI Music from and against any costs and expenses (including
                  reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by it in pursuing such a
                  cause of action if such cause of action is resolved in favor
                  of the Partnership and/or TCI Music. Except as set forth in
                  the first sentence of this Section 10 (L), this Agreement is
                  for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their
                  respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing
                  herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer
                  upon any Person other than such parties any legal or equitable
                  right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by
                  reason of this Agreement.

                  notices and other communications given to a party in
                  accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be
                  deemed to have been given (i) three Business Days after the

                  receipt.

         N.       Jurisdiction; Venue.

                  (i) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits,
                  for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of any New
                  York State court sitting in the County of New York or any
                  federal court of the United States of America sitting in the
                  Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from
                  any such court, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out
                  of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or
                  enforcement of any judgment relating hereto.

                  (ii) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
                  to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so,
                  any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying
                  of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
                  relating to this Agreement in any New York State court sitting
                  in the County of New York or any federal court sitting in the
                  Southern District of New York,
<PAGE>   15
                                       15

                  and any appellate court from any such court. Each party hereby
                  irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
                  the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
                  such suit, action or proceeding in any such court and further
                  waives the right to object, with respect to such suit, action
                  or proceeding, that such court does not have jurisdiction over
                  such party. Each party hereby irrevocably waives the right to
                  a jury trial in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of
                  or related to this Agreement.

         O.       Force Majeure. No failure or omission by a party hereto in the
                  performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement
                  shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement nor shall it create
                  any liability, if the same shall arise from any cause or
                  causes beyond the control of the party, including, but not
                  limited to, the following, which, for the purpose of this
                  Agreement, shall be regarded as beyond the control of the
                  party in question: acts of God, acts or omissions of any
                  government, any rules, regulations, or orders issued by any
                  Governmental Entity, fire, storm, flood, earthquake, accident,
                  war, rebellion, insurrection, riot, invasion, strikes and
                  lockouts; provided, however, that the party so affected shall
                  use its reasonable best efforts to avoid or remove such causes
                  of nonperformance and shall continue performance hereunder
                  with the utmost dispatch whenever such causes are removed.

         (P)      Binding on Viacom. The parties acknowledge that MTVN and
                  Infoworks are divisions of Viacom and that, consequently,
                  Viacom is obligated to perform the obligations to be performed
                  by MTVN and Infoworks hereunder. Insofar as this Agreement
                  refers to MTVN or Infoworks in the context of an operating
                  business, it shall refer only to the operating unit or units
                  of Viacom that on a day-to-day basis operate the business of
                  MTV: Music Television or VH1 Music First in the case of MTVN,
                  and technology services related to music-themed internet sites
                  in the case of Infoworks.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
duly executed in duplicate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to
constitute an original, effective as of the date first above written.

Agreement of Limited Partnership, of even date herewith (the "Partnership
Agreement") whereby Tune and MTVNS formed the Partnership to conduct the
Business as defined in the Partnership Agreement as of the date hereof (the

         WHEREAS, in connection with the formation of the Partnership, VII has
agreed to provide directly or through MTVN, InfoWorks, a division of VII, MTVN

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

<PAGE>   2
                                                                               2

         1.       Provision of Services.

                  (a) Viacom, at the request of the Partnership, shall provide
the Administrative Services to the Partnership necessary to support the Business
in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent that such
services were provided to the businesses included in the MTVN Contribution (the
"Contributed Businesses") prior to the date hereof as adjusted proportionately
to reflect the increased size of the business of the Partnership as a result of
the Tune Contribution. The Administrative Services may include the items set
forth on Schedule I. Viacom shall not be obligated to acquire additional
personnel or resources to provide Administrative Services.

                  (b) The Partnership shall provide the Partnership Services to
the MTVN Businesses, as such Partnership Services may from time to time be
requested by the applicable MTVN Business; provided, however, that the
Partnership shall not be obligated to acquire additional personnel or resources
to provide Partnership Services.

         2.       Standard of Performance.

                  (a) Viacom shall provide the Administrative Services and any
Additional Services in a commercially reasonable manner and with the same level
of care that Viacom performs such services on its own behalf and for other
similarly situated non wholly-owned Controlled Affiliates of Viacom. The
Partnership shall provide the Partnership Services in a commercially reasonable
manner and with the same level of care that the Partnership provides such
services on its own behalf. All Administrative Services and any Additional
Services provided by Viacom and the Partnership shall be in accordance with, and
shall not violate, any laws, rules or regulations of any Governmental Entity,
and the provision of such Administrative Services shall not violate the rights
of any third party.

                  (b) If the Partnership desires to have Viacom provide any
additional services (collectively, the "Additional Services") arising out of or
relating to the Services, it shall give Viacom prior written notice thereof,
which shall include reasonable details relating to the request. Viacom and the
Partnership shall negotiate in good faith whether such Additional Services shall
be provided (if at all). It is agreed and understood that (i) Viacom shall not
in any event be required to upgrade or expand its infrastructure, facilities or
systems to provide the Additional Services, and (ii) any Additional Services
shall be provided, if at all, on the same terms as Administrative Services are
provided hereunder.

         3. Force Majeure; Emergency Situations. In the event that war, fire,

liabilities, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of
every kind, nature and description, arising out of either party's gross
negligence or wilful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.
Each party agrees to promptly notify the other party in writing of any

indemnifying party of any liability which it may have to an

                                                                               4

indemnified party except to the extent the indemnifying party is materially
prejudiced by the failure to give such prompt notice.

                  (b) An indemnifying party shall have the right to participate
in and assume the defense of any such third party claim for which
indemnification is sought. The party claiming indemnification shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the
defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall not be
at the expense of the party against whom indemnification is sought unless (i)
the indemnified party shall have been advised by its counsel that use of the
same counsel to represent both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party
would present a conflict of interest (which shall be deemed to include any case
where there may be a legal defense or claim available to the indemnified party
which is different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party), or (ii) the indemnifying party shall fail vigorously to defend or
prosecute such claim or demand within a reasonable time, in which case the
indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action
on behalf of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall pay the
costs and expenses of the indemnified party's counsel. Except to the extent
otherwise provided above in this Section 6, the indemnifying party shall
reimburse each party entitled to indemnification hereunder the costs of
investigating and defending any claim, loss, damage, liability, cost or expense
giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

                  (c) An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with such consent, or if
there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party shall
indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified parties from and against any loss or
liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment.
No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and
indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless
such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from
all liability arising out of such proceeding.

         7.       Limitation of the Parties' Liability.
