B. Client agrees to promptly notify the Company of the existence of any actual or alleged Loss, claim, demand, assessment, allegation of negligence or any other matter Client becomes aware of in which the obligation to indemnify hereunder may apply. Company shall also and at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense.
