No Third Party Infringement To the Knowledge of the Company, no person has or is infringing or misappropriating any material Company Owned Intellectual Property.
Pursuit of Claims Against Third Parties If (i) a Party incurs any Liability arising out of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; (ii) an adequate legal or equitable remedy is not available for any reason against the other Party to satisfy the Liability incurred by the incurring Party; and (iii) a legal or equitable remedy may be available to the other Party against a Third Party for such Liability, then the other Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the incurring Party, at the incurring Party’s expense, to permit the incurring Party to obtain the benefits of such legal or equitable remedy against the Third Party.
Third Party Infringement In the event there is infringement by a third party of any Biochrom patent for the Product (“Third Party Infringement”) and GE Healthcare becomes aware of such infringement, GE Healthcare may give Biochrom written notice to that effect, including with such written notice evidence establishing a prima facie case of infringement by such third party. Biochrom shall bear all expenses of any suit brought by it based upon such infringement and shall retain all damages or other monies awarded or received in settlement of such suit. If, after the expiration of ninety (90) days from the date of such notice, Biochrom has not obtained a discontinuance of such infringement or brought suit against the third party infringer, then the parties shall appoint by mutual agreement an attorney with at least 15 years experience in litigating patent infringement lawsuits in the United States, who is a partner at a law firm with a nationally recognized intellectual property practice and who has no prior relationship with either party (“Independent Patent Counsel”). Such Independent Patent Counsel shall evaluate the identified Third Party Infringement and advise the parties in writing by not later than 60 days after his or her appointment whether he or she believes there is a reasonable likelihood of success in pursuing a claim for the Third Party Infringement. The cost of Independent Patent Counsel shall be shared equally by the parties. If Independent Patent Counsel determines that there is a reasonable likelihood of success and by the 30th day after such advice Biochrom has still not obtained a discontinuance of such infringement or brought suit against the third party infringer, then GE Healthcare shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring suit against such infringer. Biochrom will cooperate with GE Healthcare in any such suit for infringement brought by GE Healthcare against such third party, and shall have the right to consult with GE Healthcare and to participate in and be represented by independent counsel in such litigation at its own expense. GE Healthcare shall bear all expenses of such suit, and shall retain any damages or other monies awarded or received in consequence of such litigation.
No Infringement of Third Party IP Rights The Company has never infringed (directly, contributorily, by inducement or otherwise), misappropriated or otherwise violated or made unlawful use of any Intellectual Property Right of any other Person. No Owned Company Software and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no Licensed Company Software infringes, violates or makes unlawful use of any Intellectual Property Right of, or contains any Intellectual Property misappropriated from, any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
Third Party Infringement Claims If a Third Party Infringement Claim occurs in the Territory with respect to one or more elements of the RLS Licensed Technical Information or RLS Licensed Software, or in Teletrac's opinion is likely to occur, Teletrac will use reasonable commercial efforts, at its option and expense, either to challenge such Third Party Infringement Claim or otherwise procure for Licensee the right to continue to use, maintain and provide support for the Radio Location System, or to replace or modify the alleged infringing element so that such element becomes non-infringing, provided that such replacement or modification does not materially affect performance of the Radio Location System. If Teletrac has spent, or anticipates that it will be required to spend, more than U.S. $100,000 for such efforts, then Teletrac may give Licensee a ninety (90) day option to pursue such efforts on its own and at its own expense. If Licensee elects to pursue such efforts on its own, then Licensee may deduct from the Annual Royalty Payments due to Teletrac in the future, the reasonable expenses Licensee has incurred in obtaining non-infringing elements, up to a maximum amount of U.S.$250,000. If Licensee has not elected to pursue such efforts on its own within such ninety (90) day option period, then Licensee must notify Teletrac in writing either (i) that this License Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such Third Party Infringement Claim and without any reduction in the Annual Royalty Payment, or (ii) that Licensee elects to terminate this License Agreement due to such Third Party Infringement Claim, which shall be deemed to be a termination under Section 7.1. If the use of any RLS Licensed Software or RLS Licensed Technical Information is enjoined and the foregoing remedies cannot reasonably be accomplished, or if Licensee elects to continue this License Agreement but fails to procure the right to use the infringing element or to replace or modify the infringing element so that it becomes non-infringing, then Teletrac may require the return of the infringing RLS Licensed Software or RLS Licensed Technical Information, and Licensee's right to use such RLS Licensed Software or RLS Licensed Technical Information shall thereupon terminate. In no event shall Teletrac have any obligation to repay or refund any amounts previously paid to it by Licensee.
Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims (a) In the event that any party (the “Indemnified Person”) desires to make a claim against any other party (the “Indemnifying Person”) in connection with any Losses for which the Indemnified Person may seek indemnification hereunder in respect of a claim or demand made by any Person not a party to this Agreement against the Indemnified Person (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Person must notify the Indemnifying Person in writing, of the Third-Party Claim (a “Third-Party Claim Notice”) as promptly as reasonably possible after receipt, but in no event later than fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt, by such Indemnified Person of notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, that failure to give a Third-Party Claim Notice on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Person shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Upon receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Person’s election, to assume or participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the cost of Indemnifying Person. In any case in which the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall give the Indemnified Person ten (10) calendar days’ notice prior to executing any settlement agreement and the Indemnified Person shall have the right to approve or reject the settlement and related expenses; provided, however, that upon rejection of any settlement and related expenses, the Indemnified Person shall assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the liability of the Indemnifying Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim shall be limited to the amount or the monetary equivalent of the rejected settlement and related expenses.
Procedure for Third Party Claims Promptly after receipt by a party (the “Indemnified Party”) of notice of a claim by a third party which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that the failure promptly to give such notice shall not affect any right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that such failure has prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of such written notice, assume on behalf of the Indemnified Party and conduct with due diligence and in good faith the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (a) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented therein by advisory counsel of its own selection and at its own expense and (b) if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from, additional to or inconsistent with those available to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party to participate in the defense of such action on its own behalf at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (in lieu of any counsel required to be retained pursuant to the portion of this sentence preceding this proviso). If an Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of an indemnifiable claim, then the Indemnified Party may at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, and without prejudice to its right to indemnification, contest (or, with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle) such claim. The Indemnifying Party may not enter into a settlement with respect to any indemnifiable claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party unless such settlement is limited to a payment of money for which the Indemnified Party is fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Party. The parties will cooperate fully with one another in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any indemnifiable claim.
Indemnity Against Claims The Company will pay and discharge and will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer from (a) any lien or charge upon payments by the Company hereunder, (b) any taxes, assessments, impositions, and other charges upon payments by the Company to the Issuer hereunder, and (c) any and all liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses arising out of or resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Indenture, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel. If any such lien or charge is sought to be imposed upon payments, or any such taxes, assessments, impositions, or other charges are sought to be imposed, or any such liability, damages, costs, and expenses are sought to be imposed, the Issuer will give prompt notice to the Company, and the Company shall have the sole right and duty to assume, and will assume, the defense thereof, with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion.
Infringement Claims by Third Parties If the Exploitation of a Product in the Territory pursuant to this Agreement results in, or is reasonably expected to result in, any claim, suit or proceeding by a Third Party alleging infringement by Mereo or any of its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees, (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”), including any defense or counterclaim in connection with an Infringement action initiated pursuant to this Section 9.4, the Party first becoming aware of such alleged infringement shall promptly notify the other Party thereof in writing.
