  • Defense of Third Party Claims If an Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification under Section 8.2, Section 8.3 or Section 8.4 is based on a claim brought by a Third Party (including without limitation a customer of the Indemnified Party with respect to a claim brought against such customer by a Third Party Rights Holder) (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to defend such Third Party Claim in the name or on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of any such Third Party Claim (a “Claims Notice”) and reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense and settlement of the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party’s failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation which Licensor would otherwise have pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by such failure to so notify. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party shall have the right (following notice to the Indemnifying Party) to retain its own counsel (which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) and control its defense of any such Third Party Claim, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to employ counsel to defend such proceeding or otherwise failed to prosecute such defense with reasonable diligence. The Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party will enter into a joint representation agreement with counsel reasonably acceptable to both parties, specifying that the Indemnifying Party shall at all times control the defense, unless the Indemnified Party agrees otherwise, in writing, that the Indemnifying Party shall have sole authority to settle or compromise the Third Party Claim, and the reasonable fees and expenses for such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, in the event it is not legally possible for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party because of conflicts of interest (e.g., the conflict of interest is non-waivable), then the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of both counsels to the extent such fees and expenses are directly related to defending the claims for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own cost and expense in the proceeding and, in such event, shall and shall have the right to, consult with the Indemnifying Party regarding the defense thereof; provided that, except US 1104947v.12 as otherwise provided herein, the Indemnifying Party shall at all times control such defense of such proceeding. The Indemnifying Party may not settle or compromise the claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the settlement or compromise includes a full release of all of the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to or for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties in cash the amount for which such Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified within thirty (30) days after the settlement or compromise of such Third Party Claim or the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement or compromise of any Third Party Claim without its consent. Section 1.5 The following new Section 8.8 shall hereby be added to the Sublicense Agreement:

  • Assumption of Defense of a Third-Party Claim Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.3.1 in respect of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third-Party Claim, assume the defense and control of any Third-Party Claim, with its own counsel and at its own expense, but shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense (subject to the Indemnifying Party agreeing in writing that it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to, and subject to the limitations set forth in, this Article 8);provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnified Party) of any criminal or regulatory action or claim, any claim seeking material non-monetary remedies, or any claim where the indemnifiable amount, when taken together with all other outstanding claims for indemnification, would reasonably be expected to exceed twice the maximum amount for which the Indemnifying Party can be liable pursuant to this Article 8. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third-Party Claim, unless such settlement, compromise, discharge or entry of any judgment (i) does not involve any finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party and (ii) contains, as a condition of any settlement, compromise, discharge, entry of judgment (if applicable), or other resolution, an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from any and all Liabilities in respect of such Third-Party Claim.

  • Defense of Claim In case any claim, demand or deficiency (a “Claim”) is asserted or any action is commenced or notice is given of any administrative or other proceeding against a party hereto (“Indemnified Party”) in respect of which indemnity properly sought against the other party (“Indemnitor”) pursuant to this Agreement, Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice thereof in writing to Indemnitor. Within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or prior to such earlier date as any answer in any administrative or other proceeding is due), Indemnitor may give Indemnified Party written notice of its election to conduct the defense of such Claim at its own expense (and any separate counsel engaged by Indemnified Party shall be at its expense). If Indemnitor has given Indemnified Party such notice of election to conduct the defense, Indemnified Party shall nevertheless have the right to participate in the defense thereof, but such participation shall be solely at its expense. If Indemnitor shall not notify Indemnified Party in writing (within the time hereinabove provided) of its election to conduct the defense of such Claim, Indemnified Party may (but need not) conduct (at the expense of Indemnitor) the defense of any Claim. The party assuming the defense of a Claim hereunder (the “Defending Party”) shall notify the other party of its intention to settle, compromise or satisfy any such Claim and may make such settlement, compromise or satisfaction unless such other party (the “Assuming Party”) shall notify the Defending Party in writing (within 30 days after receipt of such notice of intention to settle, compromise or satisfy) of its election to assume (at its sole expense) the defense of any such Claim and promptly thereafter take appropriate action to implement such defense. The Assuming Party shall indemnify the Defending Party and hold it harmless against any losses in excess of the amount of losses the Defending Party would have incurred if the proposed settlement had been agreed to. Indemnified Party shall cooperate with Indemnitor in any defense, at Indemnitor’s cost, and Indemnified Party shall provide reasonable access to, and copies of, records requested by Indemnitor and shall provide the reasonable assistance of Indemnified Party’s employees in connection with any defense.

  • Defense and Settlement of Third Party Claims The Indemnifying Party shall have the right (without prejudice to the right of any Indemnified Party to participate at its or his own expense through counsel of its or his own choosing) to defend against any Third Party Claim at its or his expense and through counsel of its or his own choosing and to control such defense if the Indemnifying Party gives written notice of its or his intention to do so within 15 business days of its or his receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in all reasonable respects in the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its or his counsel all pertinent information under their control relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to elect to settle any Third Party Claim; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not have any indemnification obligation with respect to any monetary payment to any third party required by such settlement unless the Indemnifying Party shall have consented thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to elect to settle any Third Party Claim subject to the consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if the Indemnified Party fails to give such consent within 15 business days of being requested to do so, the Indemnified Party shall, at its expense, assume the defense of such Third Party Claim and regardless of the outcome of such matter, the Indemnifying Party's liability hereunder shall be limited to the amount of any such proposed settlement. The foregoing provisions notwithstanding, in no event (a) may either Indemnifying Party adjust, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim unless such adjustment, compromise or settlement unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability, (b) may the Company Indemnifying Party adjust, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim if such adjustment, compromise or settlement affects the absolute and sole right of Provant or the Surviving Corporation to own or use any of the Company's assets or (c) may the Company Indemnifying Party defend any Third Party Claim which, if adversely determined, would materially impair the financial condition, business or prospects of Provant or the Surviving Corporation.

  • Defense of Infringement Claims In the event Licensee or Licensor becomes aware that Licensee’s or any of its Affiliates’ or any Sublicensees’ practice of the Licensed Patents is the subject of a claim for patent infringement by a Third Party, that Party shall promptly notify the other, and the Parties shall consider the claim and the most appropriate action to take. Licensee shall cause each of its Affiliates and each Sublicensee to notify Licensee promptly in the event such entity becomes aware that its practice of the Licensed Patents is the subject of a claim of patent infringement by another. To the extent Licensor takes any action, Licensor (or the ReGenX Licensors) shall have the right to require Licensee’s reasonable cooperation in any such suit, upon written notice to Licensee; and Licensee shall have the obligation to participate upon Licensor’s request, in which event, Licensor shall bear the cost of Licensee’s participation. Without Licensor’s prior written permission, Licensee must not settle or compromise any such suit in a manner that imposes any material obligations or restrictions on Licensor or the ReGenX Licensors or grants any rights to the Licensed Patents other than rights that Licensee has the right to grant under this Agreement.
