If any claim is made or suit is brought against a party or entity entitled to indemnification under this Clause 19 (the “ Indemnitee ”) for damages for which liability has been assumed by the other party under this Clause 19 (the “ Indemnitor ”), the Indemnitee will promptly give notice to the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor (unless otherwise requested by the Indemnitee) will assume and conduct the defense, or settlement, of such claim or suit, as the Indemnitor will deem prudent. Notice of the claim or suit will be accompanied by all information pertinent to the matter as is reasonably available to the Indemnitee and will be followed by such cooperation by the Indemnitee as the Indemnitor or its counsel may reasonably request, at the expense of the Indemnitor.
