The duty to defend under this Agreement is <br />separate and independent of the duty to Indemnify. The duty to defend includes claims for which <br />an Indemnitee may be liable without fault or strict liability. The duty to defend applies <br />immediately upon notice of a claim, regardless of whether the issues of negligence, liability, fault, <br />default or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitor or the Indemnitee have been determined. <br />The duty to defend applies immediately, regardless of whether the Indemnitee has paid any <br />amounts or incurred any detriment arising out of or relating (directly or indirectly) to any claims. <br />It is the express intention of the Parties that an Indemnitee be entitled to obtain summary <br />adjudication or summary judgment regarding an Indemnitor's duty to defend the Indemnitee, at <br />any stage of any claim or suit, within the scope of the Indemnitor's indemnity obligations under <br />this Agreement. <br />8.7 Indemnification Procedures. Wherever this Agreement requires any <br />Indemnitor to Indemnify any Indemnitee: <br />8.7.1 Prompt Notice. The Indemnitee shall promptly notify the <br />Indemnitor of any claim. To the extent, and only to the extent, that the Indemnitee fails to give <br />prompt Notice of a Claim and such failure materially prejudices the Indemnitor in providing <br />indemnity for such claim, the Indemnitor shall be relieved of its indemnity obligations for such <br />claim. <br />8.7.2 Selection of Counsel. The Indemnitor shall select counsel <br />reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. Counsel to Indemnitor's insurance carrier that is <br />providing coverage for a claim shall be deemed reasonably satisfactory. Even though the <br />Indemnitor shall defend the action, Indemnitee may, at its option and its own expense, engage <br />separate counsel to advise it regarding the claim and its defense. The Indemnitee's separate <br />counsel may attend all proceedings and meetings. The Indemnitor's counsel shall actively consult <br />with the Indemnitee's separate counsel. The Indemnitor and its counsel shall, however, fully <br />control the defense, except to the extent that the Indemnitee waives its rights to indemnity and <br />defense for such claim. <br />
