Environmental Indemnification. Noble shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless <br />Mining Parties, its successors and assigns, from Environmental Claims relating to the Property that arise <br />out of Noble's operations on the Property. Mining Parties shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless <br />Noble, its successors and assigns, from Environmental Claims relating to the Property that arise out of <br />Mining Parties' ownership or operations on the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall <br />be responsible for and shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless the other party and its officers, <br />directors, employees, successors and assigns, from Environmental Claims arising out of damage caused <br />by such party's own operations and activities on the Property (including, but not limited to, oil and gas <br />operating activities, reclamation activities, road or line relocation, mining activities and onsite water <br />storage) to the other parties' real or personal property, including but not limited to, any Environmental <br />Claims arising out of damage to structures, wells, wellheads, Pipelines, utility lines, pits, liners, facilities <br />or other equipment on the Property. <br />15. Exclusion from Indemnities. <br />The indemnities of the parties herein shall not cover or include any amounts for which the indemnified <br />party is actually reimbursed by any third party (other than the indemnified party's own insuror). The <br />indemnities in this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any obligations to third parties. <br />16. Notice of Claim for Indemnification. <br />If a Claim is asserted against a party for which the other party would be liable under the provisions of <br />Section 14 or Section 15 above, it is a condition precedent to the indemnifying party's obligations <br />hereunder that the indemnified party give the indemnifying party written notice of the Claim setting forth <br />all particulars of the Claim, as known by the indemnified party, including a copy of the Claim (if it is a <br />written Claim). The indemnified party shall make a good faith effort to notify the indemnifying party <br />within ten (10) days of receipt of a Claim and shall effect such notice in all events within such time as <br />will allow the indemnifying party to defend against such Claim. An indemnifying party shall not be <br />obligated to reimburse an indemnified party for amounts paid in settlement of an indemnified Claim <br />unless the indemnifying party has agreed to the settlement, which agreement shall not be unreasonably <br />withheld or delayed. <br />17.
