Customer shall pay any Litigation Expenses that a Provider Indemnitee incurs in connection with defense of the Nonparty Claim before Customer assumes the defense of that Nonparty Claim, except with respect to any period during which the Provider Indemnitee fails to timely notify Customer of that Nonparty Claim.

After Customer assumes the defense of a Nonparty Claim, Customer may contest, pay, or settle the Nonparty Claim without the consent of the Provider Indemnitee only if that settlement (1) does not entail any admission on the part of the Provider Indemnitee that it violated any law or infringed the rights of any Person, (2) has no effect on any other claim against the Provider Indemnitee, (3) provides as the claimant’s sole relief monetary damages that are paid in full by Customer, and (4) requires that the claimant release the Provider Indemnitee from all liability alleged in the Nonparty Claim.
