In case the Company elects to direct such defense and select such counsel, the Remarketing Agent or controlling person shall have the right to employ its own counsel, but, in any such case, the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Remarketing Agent or such controlling person unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with defending such action, (ii) the Remarketing Agent or such controlling person reasonably concludes that </font></div><div style="height:63pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">P-18</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:58.5pt;width:100%"><div style="text-align:right"><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:12pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Company, (iii) the Company has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, or (iv) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company, it being understood, however, that the Company shall not, in connection with any one such claim or action or separate but substantially similar or related claims or actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time or for fees and expenses that are not reasonable.
