Matters Involving Third Parties (i) If any third party shall notify any Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Article VIII, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.
(ii) Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (C) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (D) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party, and (E) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.
(iii) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.4(ii) hereof, (A) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, and (C) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.
(iv) In the event any of the conditions in Section 8.4(ii) hereof is or becomes unsatisfied, however, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (B) the Indemnifying Parties will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), and (C) the Indemnifying Parties will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article VIII.
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 [***].
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.
No Third Parties Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, nor shall it confer any rights on a third party.
Claims by Third Parties The obligations and liabilities of an indemnifying party under any provision of this Agreement with respect to claims relating to third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) Whenever any indemnified party shall have received notice that a claim has been asserted or threatened against such indemnified party, which, if valid, would subject the indemnifying party to an indemnity obligation under this Agreement, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party of such claim in the manner described in Paragraph 22; provided, however, that the failure of the indemnified party to give timely notice hereunder shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement unless, and only to the extent that, such failure caused the damages for which the indemnifying party is obligated to be greater than they would have been had the indemnified party given timely notice.
(b) The indemnifying party or its designee will have the right but not the obligation, to assume the defense of any claim described in Paragraph 6 or 7 above, provided, however, the indemnified party shall have the right at its option to defend and to compromise or settle such claim which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the indemnifying party, such consent not be unreasonably withheld. If the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such claim within 15 days after receipt of notice of a claim pursuant to Paragraph 22, the indemnified party against which such claim has been asserted will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake, at the indemnifying party's cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, subject to the right of the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof and provided, however, that the indemnified party shall not enter into any such compromise or settlement without the written consent of the indemnifying party. In the event the indemnified party assumes defense of the claim, the indemnified party will keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its consent, but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment beyond review or appeal, for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless an indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Any party who does not undertake the defense of a claim may, at its own expense, retain such additional attorneys and other advisors as it shall deem necessary, which attorneys and advisors will be permitted by the party undertaking such defense, and its attorneys, to observe the defense of such claim.
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.

Third Party Claims Each Notice of Claim given by Acquiror, which involves a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), shall be resolved as follows:
(a) If, within thirty (30) days after a Notice of Claim is delivered to the Seller Representative, (x) the Seller Representative produces a notice of election and (y) such notice of election includes a written acknowledgment from the Seller Representative on behalf of the Seller Guarantors and the Sellers (the “Indemnifying Persons”) that the Indemnifying Persons would be required to indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Persons for all Damages in connection with such Third Party Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Persons shall have the right, but not the obligation to (i) take control of the defense and investigation of such Third Party Claim, (ii) employ and engage attorneys of their own choice (subject to the approval of Acquiror, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnifying Persons’ sole cost and expense, and (iii) compromise or settle such Third Party Claim, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of Acquiror; provided, that such consent will not be required if such settlement includes an unconditional release of the Acquiror Indemnified Persons and provides solely for payment of monetary damages for which the Acquiror Indemnified Persons will be indemnified in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Persons shall not have the right to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim if (1) the Indemnifying Persons fail to actively and diligently conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim (after notice and reasonable opportunity to cure), (2) the Acquiror Indemnified Persons have received advice from counsel that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Acquiror Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Persons in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim, (3) such Third Party Claim seeks a finding or admission of a violation of any criminal Law by an Acquiror Indemnified Person, (4) such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable remedies in respect of an Acquiror Indemnified Person or its business, (5) such Third Party Claim relates to a Material Customer or Material Supplier, or (6) such Third Party Claim is reasonably likely to result in Damages that, taken with any other then existing claims under this Article 12, would not be not be fully indemnified hereunder.
(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Persons defend the Acquiror Indemnified Persons against a Third Party Claim, the Acquiror Indemnified Persons shall cooperate in all reasonable respects, at the Indemnifying Persons’ request, with the Indemnifying Persons and their attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such Third Party Claim and any appeal arising therefrom, including, if appropriate and related to such Third Party Claim, in making any counterclaim against the third party claimant, or any cross complaint against any Person, in each case, at the expense of the Indemnifying Persons. The Acquiror Indemnified Persons may, at their own sole cost and expense, monitor and further participate in (but not control) the investigation, trial and defense of such Third Party Claim and any appeal arising therefrom.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Indemnifying Persons do not assume such defense and investigation or does not acknowledge in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice its obligation to indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Persons against any Damages arising from such Third Party Claim, then the Acquiror Indemnified Persons shall have the right to retain separate counsel of their choosing, defend such Third Party Claim and have the sole power to direct and control such defense (all at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Persons if it is ultimately determined that the Acquiror Indemnified Persons are entitled to indemnification hereunder); it being understood that the Acquiror Indemnified Persons’ right to indemnification for a Third Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, whether or not the Indemnifying Persons shall have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Acquiror Indemnified Persons shall not settle, compromise or pay such Third Party Claim for which they seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Persons, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(d) The Acquiror Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Persons shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with Law), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 8.1(d) shall exclusively govern S Corporation Tax Proceedings.
