(p) Separate Counsel. Each party hereby represents that it has had the adequate opportunity to consult with and has consulted with legal counsel in connection with this Contract and hereby waives any defense or claim that such party was not effectively represented in connection with this Contract. None of the provisions of this Contract shall be interpreted against the interest of the party who caused the Contract to be drafted.

(q) Personal Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Contract, it is specifically understood and agreed, such agreement being a primary consideration for the execution of this Contract by Seller and Buyer, that (a) there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of any shareholder, director, officer, manager, member or employee of Seller or Buyer with respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Contract; and (b) Seller and Buyer waive all claims, demands and causes of action against the shareholders, directors, officers, managers, members or employees of Seller and Buyer in the event of any breach by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Contract to be performed by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be.

Execution Version

 

(s) Limitation of Remedies. In no event shall any party be entitled to punitive or consequential damages for the breach of this Contract.

(t) Procedure for Indemnity. Promptly after receipt by an indemnitee of notice of any Demand, such indemnitee will deliver to the indemnitor written notice thereof and the indemnitor shall appoint counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties to defend such; provided, however, that an indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnitor, if the indemnitee reasonably believes that representation of such indemnitee by the counsel retained by the indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to give prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the indemnitor of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the indemnitor forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the indemnitee shall describe the Demand in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Demand. An indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with an indemnitor in connection with any Demand. The indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement of any Demand without the prior written consent of the indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If a firm offer is made to settle a Demand without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the indemnitee and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Demand and the indemnitor desires to accept and agree to such offer, the indemnitor shall give written notice to that effect to the indemnitee. If the indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the indemnitor may continue to contest or defend such Demand and in such event, the maximum liability of the indemnitor as to such Demand shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Demand, the indemnitor may settle the Demand upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Demand.
