Unless the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within five (5) days of its receipt of notice of any Claim that it irrevocably elects not to assume the defense of such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have elected to assume the defense of such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of any Claim, or having assumed the defense of any Claim fails to pursue diligently the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to participate in or control the defense or settlement of such Claim and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to sole control of the defense and settlement of such Claim (without limitation of the Indemnifying Party's indemnity obligations under this Section 7).

Accordingly, each Party agrees to take such action as the other Party may reasonably request (including, without limitation, execution of affidavits and other documents) to avoid or curtail the imposition, by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, of any such obligation on such Party or its Affiliates, or the establishment of a nexus for tax purposes sufficient to grant any jurisdiction the authority to levy any sales tax, use tax or similar tax on sales of products by such Party or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 11.1.1 [Tax Treatment] shall limit Company's obligations under Section 11.1.2 [Tax Treatment].

No failure or forbearance by either Party to insist upon or enforce performance by the other Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any rights or remedies under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity shall be construed as a waiver or relinquishment to any extent of such Party's right to assert or rely upon any such provision, right, or remedy in that or any other instance; rather the same shall be and remain in full force and effect.

11.9 Counterparts; Transmitted Copies.
