INDEMNIFICATION FOR INFRINGEMENT The terms of this Section 10 do not apply to the Community Edition Licensees. Licensor will defend or settle, at its own expense, any claim against Licensee asserting a copyright, trademark or trade secret which concerns the Product used within the scope of the Agreement hereunder. Licensor shall indemnify Licensee against any loss, expense or liability including reasonable attorney's fees from any damages alleged against Licensee. Licensor's obligations under this Section are conditioned on Licensee promptly notifying Licensor in writing after Licensee first receives notice of any such claim, action or allegation of infringement and, Licensor being given sole control of the defense of any action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise, with the reasonable assistance of Licensee. Licensor shall not be liable for any costs or expenditures incurred by Licensee without Licensor's prior written consent. If an injunction or order is obtained against Licensee's use of the Product by reason of the allegations of infringement, or if in Licensor's opinion the Product is likely to become the subject of a claim of infringement, Licensor shall, at its expense:
(a) Procure for Licensee the right to continue using the Product; or
(b) Modify or replace the Product with a compatible, functionally equivalent, non-infringing Product(s); or
(c) If neither (a) nor (b) is reasonably practical in Licensor's judgment, remove the Product and issue Licensee a pro rata credit based upon the License fees paid for the Product prorated over a thirty-six (36) month period from the date of shipment of the Product. Thereafter, termination shall proceed in accordance with the terms of Section 4. Licensor shall have no obligation under this Section to the extent the alleged infringement results from (i) modification of the Product other than by Licensor; (ii) the combination of the Product with products not provided by Licensor; or (iii) use of any older version of the Product when use of a newer version made available to Licensee would have avoided the infringement. This Section 10 is Licensor's entire liability and Licensee's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of intellectual property infringement of any kind.
Claim of Infringement In the event that use of any facilities or equipment (including software), becomes, or in the reasonable judgment of the Party who owns the affected network is likely to become, the subject of a claim, action, suit, or proceeding based on intellectual property infringement, then said Party shall promptly and at its sole expense and sole option, but subject to the limitations of liability set forth below:
9.4.1 modify or replace the applicable facilities or equipment (including software) while maintaining form and function, or
9.4.2 obtain a license sufficient to allow such use to continue.
9.4.3 In the event 9.4.1 or 9.4.2 are commercially unreasonable, then said Party may, terminate, upon reasonable notice, this contract with respect to use of, or services provided through use of, the affected facilities or equipment (including software), but solely to the extent required to avoid the infringement claim.
No Infringement To the best of the Company's knowledge, the Company has not violated or infringed and is not currently violating or infringing, and the Company has not received any communications alleging that the Company (or any of its employees or consultants) has violated or infringed, any Intellectual Property of any other person or entity, to the extent that any such violation or infringement, either individually or together with all other such violations and infringements, would have a Material Adverse Effect.
Patent Infringement 9.1 If either Party learns of the infringement of a Prospective Patent, in any jurisdiction within the Territory, it shall so inform the other Party in writing, including any evidence of such infringement. University may not notify a third party of the infringement of a Prospective Patent, save for its legal advisers, without first obtaining written consent of Licensee, which consent shall not be unreasonably denied or delayed. Both Parties shall use their reasonable commercial efforts in cooperation with each other to terminate such infringement.
9.2 Licensee shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any action, suit or proceeding to enforce the Prospective Patent with respect to infringement of the Prospective Patent and to defend any declaratory judgment with respect thereto, in each case within the Territory (“Action”). University hereby agrees to assist and cooperate with Licensee, at Licensee’s expense (including payment for University’s expert’s time, and other expenses so long as such expenses are properly documented), to enable Licensee to prosecute and maintain such Action. University’s agreement to assist Licensee includes, at Licensee’s reasonable request and when it is required by law, government regulation or court order, University’s agreement to join or to procure its Affiliates to join as a nominal party to achieve sufficient legal standing for Licensee to prosecute and maintain such Action provided that, if University participates in the Action only as a nominal party, University shall have no responsibility (other than to join as a nominal party) nor be liable for any costs or expenses in relation to or arising from such Action. For clarity, such liabilities for costs or expenses shall be the responsibility of Licensee. If Licensee invites University or its Affiliates to take a more active role (other than as a nominal party) in an Action as a co-party, University shall have its sole discretion to decide joining or not and on terms to be agreed with Licensee on a case by case basis. Licensee shall have the right to settle any Action or consent to an adverse judgment thereto, in its sole discretion, except that Licensee may not settle such action by agreeing to the invalidation of a Prospective Patent or any claim therein without University’s prior written consent. Any recovery obtained as a result of an Action, whether by judgment, award, decree or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of Licensee’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including any attorneys, expert and court fees), and the balance shall be considered to be Net Sales Value, and subject to the royalty payments at [***]% as set forth in Clause 5, and the remaining balance shall be recovered by Licensee as damages.
9.3 Subject to Clause 9.2, if University commences or defends any suit or proceedings on its own account, University shall do so at its own expense. University shall have the right to settle any such action or consent to an adverse judgment thereto, in its sole discretion, except that University may not settle such action that may impair, damage or otherwise adversely affect the licence granted to Licensee under Clause 2.1, Licensee’s use of such licence, any Licensed Product, or any of Licensee’s rights/obligations hereunder, without Licensee’s prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any recovery obtained as a result of such action, whether by judgment, award, decree, or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of University’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including expert, attorneys and court fees), and the balance shall be distributed between University and Licensee at a ratio of 65:35 in all cases which do not result in a sub-licence to a third party. If a suit or proceedings result in a sub-licence to a third party, then any recovery, whether by judgment, award, decree, or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of University’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including expert, attorneys and court fees), and the balance to be paid to Licensee, provided that such balance shall be shared between University and Licensee according to the provisions in Clause 5.3 herein.
PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION--THIRD PARTY CLAIMS (a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 12.1 or 12.2 of notice of the commencement of any proceeding against it, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnifying party's failure to give such notice.
(b) If any proceeding referred to in Section 12.4(a) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in such proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless the indemnifying party is also a party to such proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate), to assume the defense of such proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 12 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement or such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent unless the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within ten days after the indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party.
Action for Indemnification To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by Indemnitee with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, unless Indemnitee is successful in establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding shall determine that, despite Indemnitee’s failure to establish their right to indemnification, Indemnitee is entitled to indemnity for such expenses; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8(b) is intended to limit the Corporation’s obligation with respect to the advancement of expenses to Indemnitee in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, as provided in Section 4 hereof.
Non-Infringement To the Company’s Knowledge, there is no unauthorized use, unauthorized disclosure, infringement, misappropriation or other violation of any Company-Owned Intellectual Property by any third party, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has brought any Action or sent any notices to any third party regarding the foregoing. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any Liability for infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any Third-Party Intellectual Property. The operation of the Company’s business, including (i) the design, development, manufacturing, reproduction, marketing, licensing, sale, offer for sale, importation, distribution, provision or use of any Company Product or Company-Owned Intellectual Property and (ii) the Company’s use of any product, device, process or service used in the Company’s business as previously conducted, currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted by the Company, has not, does not and will not infringe (directly or indirectly, including via contribution or inducement), misappropriate or otherwise violate any Third-Party Intellectual Property, breach any terms of service, click-through agreement or any other agreement or rules, policies or guidelines applicable to use of such Third-Party Intellectual Property, and does not constitute unfair competition or unfair trade practices under the Law of any jurisdiction in which Company conducts its business or in which Company Products are manufactured, marketed, distributed, licensed or sold (and there is no basis for any such claim). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has been sued in any Action or received any written communications (including any third-party reports by users) alleging that the Company or any Subsidiary has infringed, misappropriated, or otherwise violated or, by conducting its business, would infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate any Intellectual Property of any other Person or entity. No Company Intellectual Property or Company Product is subject to any Action, Order, settlement agreement or right that restricts in any manner the use, transfer or licensing thereof by the Company, any Subsidiary, or that may affect the validity, use or enforceability of any Company Intellectual Property.
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.
Claimed Infringement Each Party will promptly notify the other Party if a Third Party brings any Action alleging patent infringement by Lian or Landos or any of their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees with respect to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Licensed Product or Joint Patent Rights (any such Action, an “Infringement Claim”) in the Territory. Lian will have the right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim in the Territory with respect to Lian’s activities, at Lian’s sole cost and expense, and Landos will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such Infringement Claim in the Territory by counsel of its own choice. Landos will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim with respect to Landos’ activities, including any such Infringement Claim in the Territory or outside of the Territory. Upon the request of the Party controlling the response to the Infringement Claim, the other Party will reasonably cooperate with the controlling Party in the reasonable defense of such Infringement Claim. The other Party will have the right to consult with the controlling Party concerning any Infringement Claim and to participate in and be represented by independent counsel in any associated litigation. If the Infringement Claim is brought against both Parties, then each Party will have the right to defend against the Infringement Claim. The Party defending an Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) will (a) consult with the other Party as to the strategy for the prosecution of such defense, (b) consider in good faith any comments from the other Party with respect thereto and (c) keep the other Party reasonably informed of any material steps taken and provide copies of all material documents filed, in connection with such defense. The Party controlling the defense against an Infringement Claim will have the right to settle such Infringement Claim on terms deemed reasonably appropriate by such Party, provided, that, neither Party will have the right to settle any Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party under this Agreement without the consent of such other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
Infringement 8.1 The parties shall promptly notify each other of any suspected infringement of any Licensed Patents.
i. During the Term, COMPANY shall, at its expense, have the right to enforce any Licensed Patents against such infringer and may defend any declaratory judgment action brought against it alleging the invalidity of a Licensed Patent. COMPANY agrees to defend LICENSOR against any counterclaim brought against it in such action. LICENSOR shall cooperate with COMPANY in such effort, and EMORY agrees that it will, at COMPANY’S expense, be joined as a party to such action, if necessary. It is LICENSOR’s intention that COMPANY be able to prosecute an alleged infringement without including LICENSOR as a party to the litigation, should LICENSOR choose at its discretion not to be a party to the litigation, and as such herein grants COMPANY the rights in Licensed Patents to xxx an infringer alone. Should GTRC choose not to join in such action and COMPANY is unable to initiate or prosecute such action in its name only by a ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction, GTRC shall assign to EMORY only such rights to the applicable Licensed Patent that may be necessary to permit COMPANY to initiate or prosecute such action without GTRC, provided that COMPANY shall be responsible for all reasonable attorney’s fees and costs associated with LICENSOR’s participation in such suit. COMPANY shall reimburse LICENSOR for any costs incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, as part of any action brought by COMPANY.
ii. COMPANY shall not enter into any settlement agreement, voluntary dismissal, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition in any action regarding the Licensed Patents, without the express written consent of LICENSOR if such agreement would or would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the validity or enforceability of the Licensed Patents, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Consent shall be deemed given hereunder if no objection is provided in writing within fifteen days of delivery of the request for such consent. Any recovery or settlement received (whether for punitive or exemplary damages, or any other recovery or settlement received, including compensatory damages or damages based on loss or revenues (hereinafter referred to as “Recovery”)), shall first be used to reimburse the documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by COMPANY and LICENSOR in pursuing such action, and to the extent any portion of the balance of the Recovery represents compensatory damages, for example, compensation for loss of revenues, such portion shall be deemed to be the Sales of Licensed Products in the fiscal quarter received by COMPANY, and COMPANY shall pay to LICENSOR an amount representing the royalty which would have been paid by COMPANY in accordance with the provisions of Article 3.2 had such portion of the Recovery been accrued by COMPANY as Sales. Any remaining amounts of such Recovery that represents, for example, additional damages (such as enhanced or punitive damages) shall be paid (a) [* * *] to the extent the Recovery is attributable to infringement in the United States of Licensed Patents and (b) otherwise [* * *].
8.2 If COMPANY fails, within [* * *] days after receiving notice of a potential infringement that would or would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect the validity or enforceability of the Licensed Patents , to institute an action against such infringer or notifies LICENSOR that it does not plan to institute such action, then LICENSOR shall have the right to do so at its own expense unless COMPANY notifies LICENSOR that COMPANY is engaged in bona fide negotiations for the grant to the alleged infringer of a sublicense. COMPANY shall cooperate with LICENSOR in such effort including being joined as a party to such action if necessary. LICENSOR shall be entitled to retain all damages or costs awarded in such action. Should either LICENSOR or COMPANY be a party to a suit under the provisions of this Article and thereafter elect to abandon such suit, the abandoning party shall give timely notice to the other party who may, at its discretion, continue prosecution of such suit.
