(c)  The provisions of this Section 5.1 constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of Seller, and Purchaser against the other with respect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and no separate Claim shall be so brought. 

(d)  In the event that a party (the " Indemnified Party ") desires to make a claim against another party hereto (the " Indemnifying Party ") under this Section in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or demand at any time instituted against or made upon the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party may seek indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such Claim and of the Indemnified Party’s claim of indemnification with respect thereto, provided that failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section except to the extent, if at all, that the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced thereby. Upon receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Claim and shall be entitled to fully assume the defense of such Claim, and, if the Indemnifying Party shall have accepted the Indemnified Party's claim for indemnity and agreed to be responsible therefor, in the case of such an assumption upon written notice to the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the authority to negotiate, compromise and settle such Claim, provided that no such settlement shall impose on the Indemnified Party any cost, expense or liability which the Indemnifying Party is not indemnifying under this Section or adversely affect the anticipated residual value of any Trailer. The Indemnified Party shall retain the right to employ its own counsel and to participate in the defense of any Claim, the defense of which has been assumed by the Indemnifying Party pursuant hereto, but the Indemnified Party shall bear and shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses in connection with such participation, unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) such Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel, or (iii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such action in accordance herewith and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event of any Claim under this Section, the Indemnified Party shall advise the Indemnifying Party in writing of the amount and circumstances surrounding such Claim. With respect to a liquidated Claim, if within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party has not contested such Claim in writing, the Indemnifying Party will pay the full amount thereof, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such period.

On the Closing Date Seller and PTEC irrevocably assign to Purchaser all of their rights under any warranty, express or implied, service policy or product agreement of any manufacturer, of any maintenance and overhaul agency or of any subcontractor, supplier or vendor of any item of the Trailers to the extent that such rights relate to any time period after the Closing Date, are assignable and are not extinguished as a result of this Agreement or such assignment. From time to time upon the reasonable request of Purchaser, Seller and/or PTEC shall give notice to any such manufacturer, maintenance and overhaul agency, subcontractor, supplier or vendor of the assignment of such warranties to Purchaser.
