6

party may present a responsive brief to the Accounting Arbitrator (which responsive brief shall also be concurrently provided to the other Party).

The fees, expenses and costs of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be borne by the Purchaser, on the hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, in such amount(s) as shall be determined by the Accounting Arbitrator based on the proportion that the aggregate amount of disputed items submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator that is unsuccessfully disputed by the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Seller, on the other hand, as determined by the Accounting Arbitrator, bears to the total amount of such disputed items so referred to the Accounting Arbitrator for resolution.

not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided under Section 11.2 or 11.3. If the indemnifying party so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, the indemnifying party may assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party’s own expense with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the indemnifying party will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such action or proceeding without the written consent of the indemnified party unless such settlement, compromise or consent secures the unconditional release of the indemnified party; and provided further, that, if the indemnified party reasonably determines that a conflict of interest exists where it is advisable for the indemnified party to be represented by separate counsel or that, upon advice of counsel, there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume such defense and the indemnified party shall be entitled to separate counsel at the indemnifying party’s expense. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to assume the defense of such action or proceeding as a result of the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the indemnifying party’s counsel shall be entitled to conduct the indemnifying party’s defense and counsel for the indemnified party shall be entitled to conduct the defense of the indemnified party, it being understood that both such counsel will cooperate with each other to conduct the defense of such action or proceeding as efficiently as possible. If the indemnifying party is not so entitled to assume the defense of such action or does not assume such defense, after having received the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party. In such event, however, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement effected without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If an indemnifying party is entitled to assume, and assumes, the defense of such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party incurred thereafter in connection with such action or proceeding.
