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.
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.
(b) The Indemnified Person shall retain the right to employ its own counsel and to discuss matters with the Indemnifying Person related to the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the defense of which has been assumed by the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 10.3(a) of this Agreement, but the Indemnified Person shall bear and shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses in connection with such participation; provided, however, that, subject to Section 10.3(a) above, all decisions of the Indemnifying Person shall be final and the Indemnified Person shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Person in all respects in the defense of the Third-Party Claim, including refraining from taking any position adverse to the Indemnifying Person.
(c) If the Indemnifying Person fails to give notice of the assumption of the defense of any Third-Party Claim within a reasonable time period not to exceed forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Person shall no longer be entitled to assume (but shall continue to be entitled to participate in) such defense. The Indemnified Person may, at its option, continue to defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the Indemnifying Person shall indemnify the Indemnified Person for all reasonable fees and expenses in connection therewith (provided it is a Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Person is otherwise obligated to provide indemnification hereunder). The Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate at its own expense and with its own counsel in the defense of any Third-Party Claim the defense of which it does not assume. Prior to effectuating any settlement of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall furnish the Indemnifying Person with written notice of any proposed settlement in sufficient time to allow the Indemnifying Person to act thereon. Within fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice, the Indemnified Person shall be permitted to effect such settlement unless the Indemnifying Person (a) reimburses the Indemnified Person in accordance with the terms of this Article 10 for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with such Claim; (b) assumes the defense of such Third-Party Claim; and (c) takes such other actions as the Indemnified Person may reasonably request as assurance of the Indemnifying Person’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this Article 10 in connection with such Third-Party Claim.
Procedure for Third Party Claims The obligations and liabilities of each Party with respect to Third-Party Claims shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i) Promptly upon receiving a written notice of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may elect, at its sole option, to undertake the defense thereof by outside counsel of its own choosing, which outside counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, by sending written notice of its election to the Indemnified Party; provided however, that if, in the Indemnified Party’s and the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend or otherwise does not promptly defend such Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to undertake the defense of, and to compromise or settle, such Third-Party Claim on behalf, for the account, and at the risk of the Indemnifying Party, to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is determined to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Agreement with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The written notice of the Third-Party Claim shall contain all material information known to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim and shall include copies of materials submitted to Indemnified Party by the Third-Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim.
(ii) If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake and diligently pursue the defense of a Third-Party Claim hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall control all aspects of the defense and settlement of such Third-Party Claim and may settle, compromise or enter into a judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any such settlement, compromise or judgment without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if such settlement, compromise or judgment would result in the imposition of any non-monetary liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the defense under this Article 9, the Indemnified Party shall fully cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith and may employ, at any time, a separate outside counsel to represent it; provided however, that the Indemnified Party shall be solely responsible for the costs and expenses of any such separate outside counsel. If the Indemnified Party undertakes the defense of a Third-Party Claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise, or enter into any judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim for which it is seeking or shall seek indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of Indemnifying Party, which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(iii) The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with access to all reasonably requested records and documents of the Indemnified Party relating to any Third-Party Claim, other than documents for which the Indemnified Party has claimed or shall claim a legal privilege.
Infringement Claims by Third Parties If the Exploitation of a Licensed 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 Licensee 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 Section 6.3.2, the Party first becoming aware of such alleged infringement shall promptly notify the other Party thereof in writing. As between the Parties, Licensee shall be responsible for defending any such claim, suit or proceeding, at its sole cost and expense using counsel of Licensee’s choice, in relation to technology licensed under any Exclusive Licensed Technology, and MedImmune shall be responsible for defending any such claim, suit or proceeding at proceeding at its sole cost and expense, using counsel of MedImmune’s choice in relation to technology licensed under any Non-Exclusive Licensed Technology. MedImmune shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, assist and cooperate with Licensee, as Licensee may reasonably request from time to time, in connection with its activities set out in this Section 6.4, including where necessary, furnishing a power of attorney solely for such purpose or joining in, or being named as a necessary party to, such action, providing access to relevant documents and other evidence and making its employees available at reasonable business hours; provided that Licensee shall reimburse MedImmune for its reasonable and verifiable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Licensee shall keep MedImmune reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding. Licensee agrees to provide MedImmune with copies of all material pleadings filed in such action and to allow MedImmune reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the claims. Any damages, or awards, including royalties incurred or awarded in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim defended under this Section 6.4 shall be [***].
RECOVERY FROM THIRD PARTIES 11.1 If
11.1.1 the Seller makes a payment in respect of a Warranty Claim by the Purchaser (the “Damages Payment”);
11.1.2 any member of the Purchaser’s Group recovers from a third party (including pursuant to any insurance policy) any sum in cash or in kind which compensates it in respect of the Loss which is the subject matter to that Warranty Claim (the “Third Party Sum”);
11.1.3 the receipt of that Third Party Sum was not taken into account in calculating the Damages Payment; and
11.1.4 the aggregate of the Third Party Sum and the Damages Payment exceeds the amount required to compensate the Purchaser in full for the Loss or Liability which gave rise to the Warranty Claim in question, such excess being the “Excess Recovery”, then the Purchaser shall, promptly on receipt of the Third Party Sum by any member of the Purchaser’s Group, repay to the Seller an amount equal to the lower of (i) the Excess Recovery and (ii) the Damages Payment, after deducting (in either case) all additional Tax and any costs incurred by the Purchaser or the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group in recovering that Third Party Sum.
11.2 If, before the Seller pays any amount in respect of any Warranty Claim under this Agreement, any EDS Entity is entitled to recover (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, insurance or otherwise) from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates any relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group (in whole or in part) in respect of the Loss or Liability which is the subject matter of the Warranty Claim, the Purchaser shall procure that, before steps are taken against the Seller, the Purchaser will make reasonable efforts to enforce recovery against the third party and any actual recovery shall reduce or satisfy, as applicable, such Warranty Claim to the extent of such recovery, provided that the Seller first indemnifies the Purchaser’s Group and the EDS Entities against any Tax that may be suffered on receipt of any sum recovered thereunder, together with any costs or expenses incurred in recovering such sum.
Non-Third Party Claims Upon discovery of any claim for which Buyer has an indemnification obligation under the terms of Section 12.1 which does not involve a claim by a third party against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to Buyer of such claim and, in any case, shall give Buyer such notice within 30 days of such discovery. A failure by Indemnitee to timely give the foregoing notice to Buyer shall not excuse Buyer from any indemnification liability except to the extent that Buyer is materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.
Defense of Third Party Claims In the case of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right: (a) to control and conduct any proceedings or negotiations in connection therewith and necessary or appropriate to defend the claim, (b) to take all other reasonable steps or proceedings to settle or defend any such Third-Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), and (c) to employ counsel designated by the Indemnifying Party to contest any such Third-Party Claim in the name of the Indemnified Party or otherwise. The Indemnifying Party shall, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a Third-Party Claim Notice (the “Indemnity Notice Period”), give written notice to the Indemnified Party of its intention to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver to the Indemnified Party within the Indemnity Notice Period written notice that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party may defend against any such Third-Party Claim in any such manner as it may deem appropriate, provided, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to fully participate in (but not control) such defense (including with counsel of its choice), at its sole expense, and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party in connection with such participation. In the event that either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim as provided above (the “Controlling Party”), the non-Controlling Party shall have the right to fully participate (but not control) in such defense (including with counsel of its choice), at its sole expense, and the Controlling Party shall reasonably cooperate with the non-Controlling Party in connection with such participation; provided, however, that Buyer and Seller shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts with respect to any information shared pursuant to this Section 7.3(b) to preserve attorney-client privilege.
