Each Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to select and employ separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the reasonable fees of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by the Issuer. The obligations of Issuer under this Section 9 shall survive any termination of this Escrow Agreement and the resignation or removal of NCPS.

Indemnification of Licensee Subject to Section 9.3 below, TeneoBio agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Licensee, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Licensee Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) payable to unaffiliated Third Parties, incurred by Licensee Indemnitees in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of a Third Party (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) (A) alleging the use by TeneoBio of UniRat to generate the Antibodies infringed or misappropriated such Third Party’s intellectual property rights, (B) to the extent arising out of the breach by TeneoBio of any of its representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement or (C) to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any TeneoBio Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall TeneoBio be obligated to indemnify Licensee Indemnitees for any Third Party Claims to the extent such Third Party Claims would be subject to indemnification by Licensee pursuant to Section 9.2(b) or (c).
PROCEDURE UPON APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION 12.1 A determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made in the specific case by one of the following methods, which shall be at the election of Indemnitee: (i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board (ii) by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (iii) by vote of the shareholders by ordinary resolution. The Company will promptly advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied. If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.
12.2 In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12.2. The Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. If the Independent Counsel is selected by the Board, the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Delaware Court, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12.1 hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).
Indemnification by Licensee Licensee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensor and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, shareholders, successors and assigns, (collectively, the “Licensor Parties”) from and against any Action, and any and all direct losses suffered or incurred by Licensor in connection with any third party claims (a) arising out of or resulting from any breach by Licensee of any provision of this Agreement, (b) regarding the Content (other than Licensed Content) of the websites associated with Licensed Domain Names, or (c) regarding any Content that was subject to a request for removal by a Governmental Authority, even if Licensee removes such Content within the time period proscribed by the Governmental Authority, provided that, in all cases, Licensee shall not be liable for any direct losses suffered or incurred by Licensor as a result of Licensor’s failure to provide Licensee with a reasonable period of time to remove Content in cases where (i) the basis or nature of the offense has not previously been identified by any Governmental Authority as offensive or inappropriate and (ii) Licensee has not also received notice from the Governmental Authority. Licensee’s obligation to indemnify Licensor shall be conditioned on (x) Licensor’s provision to Licensee of prompt notice of such an Action (except where any delay does not materially prejudice Licensee); (y) Licensor’s reasonable cooperation with Licensee in the defense and settlement of such an Action at Licensee’s cost; and (z) Licensee having exclusive control of the defense, settlement and/or compromise of such an Action (provided that Licensee may not settle any Action in a manner that adversely affects Licensor without Licensor’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
