Customer will allow Company to take control over the defense; provided that, Customer will have the right to participate at its own expense in such defense.  Company agrees not to settle any third-party claim without Customer’s prior written consent if such settlement imposes any liability, admission of liability or wrongdoing, or other obligations on the Customer.
