Warranty Claims 8.1 The Supplier shall be obliged to inspect the quantity and the quality of the goods before delivery. 8.2 We shall have no duty to inspect the goods nor to notify any detected defects within a specific time period. In any event, a warranty claim will be timely made if raised prior to the expiration of the warranty period set forth in sub- clause 8.7 hereof. 8.3 We are entitled to demand, at our discretion, that the Supplier either replace defective goods or remedy the defect. The Supplier may only refuse the form of supplementary performance we have chosen on the grounds of dispropor- tionate cost where such costs would exceed the value of the goods in defect-free condition. 8.4 The Supplier warrants that the supplied goods are free of any fault or defect, whether of design, workmanship or materials. 8.5 Where supplementary performance fails, we are entitled to withdraw from the contract according to applicable law. Supplementary performance shall be deemed to have failed after one unsuccessful attempt, provided that the type of product or defect does not indicate that we are required to accept a further attempt at supplementary perfor- xxxxx. 8.6 We are entitled to remedy defects ourselves or to have them remedied at the expense of the Supplier, or to under- take shortfall purchases, where exigency or particular urgency applies and it is no longer possible to notify the Sup- plier with a deadline because of such particular urgency. 8.7 The Supplier shall be liable for any breach of the warranties if, within 18 months after the delivery date, we give no- xxxx in writing to the Supplier of any defect in the goods which shall arise from faulty design, materials or xxxxxxx- ship. This warranty period starts upon delivery of the goods and shall be suspended while the Supplier attempts supplementary performance. With respect to replaced or repaired goods, a new warranty period shall commence upon delivery of the replaced or repaired goods. 8.8 We expressly reserve the right to claim damages under applicable law. Warranty disclaimers and/or limitations of li- ability on the part of the Supplier do not apply. The foregoing warranties shall be without prejudice to any other rights and remedies available to us. 8.9 The Supplier indemnifies and holds us harmless against third party claims in connection with defective, delayed or in other manners faulty delivery, including court and attorney fees.
Product Liability Claims As soon as it becomes aware, each party will give the other prompt written notice of any defect or alleged defect in a Product, any injury alleged to have occurred as a result of the use or application of a Product, and any circumstances that may give rise to litigation or recall of a Product or regulatory action that may affect the sale or manufacture of a Product, specifying, to the extent the party has such information, the time, place and circumstances thereof and the names and addresses of the persons involved. Each party will also furnish promptly to the other copies of all papers received in respect of any claim, action or suit arising out of such alleged defect, injury or regulatory action.
Excluded Liabilities Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not assume any duties, obligations or liabilities of Seller of any kind, whether known, unknown, contingent or otherwise, other than the Transferred Liabilities, including any duty, obligation or liability: (1) not directly relating to the Transferred Assets; (2) attributable to any acts or omissions to act taken or omitted to be taken by or on behalf of Seller (or any of its Affiliates) prior to the Effective Time in violation of any applicable laws, contracts or legal or fiduciary duties; (3) attributable to any actions, causes of action, claims, suits or proceedings or violations of law or regulation attributable to any acts or omissions to act taken or omitted to be taken by Seller (or any of its affiliates or direct or indirect Subsidiaries); (4) for (i) Taxes relating to the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Liabilities for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date and (ii) Taxes for which Seller is liable pursuant to Section 2.1(h); (5) except as expressly set forth in Section 8.13, relating to the Employees in any respect, including the employment or termination of employment of any Employee, in the case of each Branch Employee relating to any period prior to the time such Branch Employee become employed by Purchaser as contemplated hereby, and relating to the Benefit Plans, ERISA, COBRA or the WARN Act in any respect, whether arising before or after the Effective Time (for avoidance of doubt, Excluded Liabilities include any duty, obligation or liability arising under the Seller Employment Agreements, the Parent Equity Incentive Plans, any contract listed on Schedule 6.8(b)(ii) or any plan listed on Schedule 6.8(b)(iii)); (6) arising from circumstances, events or conditions prior to the Effective Time and not expressly assumed hereunder; and (7) all amounts due and payable to any Affiliate (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”). For avoidance of doubt, Excluded Liabilities shall include the Perryville Loan Liabilities, and Purchaser shall not be a successor to Seller with respect to any Perryville Loan Liabilities. This Section 2.1(f) is not intended to enlarge the rights of any third parties relating to the Excluded Liabilities. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent either party hereto from contesting matters relating to the Excluded Liabilities with any third party.
Warranty Obligations (a) Project Co represents, warrants and covenants that: (i) the Works shall conform to the requirements of this Project Agreement, Good Industry Practice, Applicable Law and all professional engineering principles generally accepted as standards of the industry in the Province of Ontario; (ii) the Works shall be free of defects, including design defects, errors and omissions; and (iii) materials and equipment shall be of good quality and in compliance with this Project Agreement. (b) During the Warranty Period and subject to Section 11.15(c), Project Co shall promptly, at its sole cost and expense, correct and Make Good all Construction Defects arising in respect of the Works. For greater certainty, Project Co is required to correct and Make Good Construction Defects related to any Product during the applicable Warranty Period despite Project Co having obtained on Contracting Authority’s behalf industry- standard or other equipment warranties in accordance with Section 11.15(f). For all work to correct Construction Defects, the applicable Warranty Period shall be extended for a further two years from the date of the last work completed in respect of such corrective Works. For clarity, any extension of a Warranty Period for the purposes of a correction shall only apply to the relevant Construction Defect and not the Works as a whole. (c) In addition to the obligation to correct and Make Good Construction Defects during the Warranty Period, Project Co shall at its expense correct and Make Good any Construction Defects that could not reasonably have been ascertained by a competent person in accordance with Good Industry Practice during a visual inspection of the Works (“Construction Latent Defect”), provided Contracting Authority gives Project Co written Notice of the Construction Latent Defect within the time frame applicable to such Construction Latent Defect pursuant to the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario). (d) The warranties described in this Section 11.15 shall cover labour and material, including, the costs of removal and replacement of covering materials. The warranties shall not limit extended warranties on any Product or item of equipment called for elsewhere in the Output Specifications or otherwise provided by any manufacturer of such Product or equipment. (e) If Project Co fails to correct and Make Good any Construction Defects or Construction Latent Defects in accordance with Sections 11.15(b) and 11.15(c) and in the time period specified in Section 11.16(a) or Section 11.16(b), as applicable, without prejudice to any other right or remedy Contracting Authority may have, Contracting Authority may correct such Construction Defects or Construction Latent Defects at Project Co’s sole cost and expense. (f) Project Co shall obtain warranties from the manufacturers of each of the Products for the duration(s) and in accordance with the applicable requirements specified in the Output Specifications in the name of and to the benefit of both Project Co and Contracting Authority. Where, in respect of a Product warranty, the Output Specifications do not specify a specific duration and/or other requirements, Project Co shall obtain industry-standard warranties from the applicable manufacturers in the name of and to the benefit of Project Co and Contracting Authority which shall extend no less than two years from the Substantial Completion Date. Each Product warranty shall be issued by the applicable manufacturer and delivered to Project Co no later than 30 days prior to the Substantial Completion Date. Project Co shall ensure that each Product warranty, including any Product warranty extended under this Section 11.15(f), is fully assigned to Contracting Authority, at no cost or expense to Contracting Authority, at the end of the Warranty Period, as such Warranty Period may be extended in accordance with Section 11.15(b).
Breach of Contract Claims [Option (Include if University prefers an abbreviated Breach of Contract Claims provision): To the extent that Chapter 2260, Texas Government Code, is applicable to this Agreement and is not preempted by other applicable law, the dispute resolution process provided for in Chapter 2260 and the related rules adopted by the Texas Attorney General pursuant to Chapter 2260, will be used by University and Contractor to attempt to resolve any claim for breach of contract made by Contractor that cannot be resolved in the ordinary course of business. The chief business officer of University will examine Contractor's claim and any counterclaim and negotiate with Contractor in an effort to resolve the claims. The parties specifically agree (i) neither execution of this Agreement by University nor any other conduct, action or inaction of any representative of University relating to this Agreement constitutes or is intended to constitute a waiver of University’s or the state's sovereign immunity to suit; and (ii) University has not waived its right to seek redress in the courts.] 19.1 To the extent that Chapter 2260, Texas Government Code, as it may be amended from time to time (Chapter 2260), is applicable to this Agreement and is not preempted by other Applicable Laws, the dispute resolution process provided for in Chapter 2260 will be used, as further described herein, by University and Contractor to attempt to resolve any claim for breach of contract made by Contractor: 12.19.1.1 Contractor’s claims for breach of this Agreement that the parties cannot resolve pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement or in the ordinary course of business will be submitted to the negotiation process provided in subchapter B of Chapter 2260. To initiate the process, Contractor will submit written notice, as required by subchapter B of Chapter 2260, to University in accordance with the notice provisions in this Agreement. Contractor's notice will specifically state that the provisions of subchapter B of Chapter 2260 are being invoked, the date and nature of the event giving rise to the claim, the specific contract provision that University allegedly breached, the amount of damages Contractor seeks, and the method used to calculate the damages. Compliance by Contractor with subchapter B of Chapter 2260 is a required prerequisite to Contractor's filing of a contested case proceeding under subchapter C of Chapter 2260. The chief business officer of University, or another officer of University as may be designated from time to time by University by written notice to Contractor in accordance with the notice provisions in this Agreement, will examine Contractor's claim and any counterclaim and negotiate with Contractor in an effort to resolve the claims. 12.19.1.2 If the parties are unable to resolve their disputes under Section 12.19.1.1, the contested case process provided in subchapter C of Chapter 2260 is Contractor’s sole and exclusive process for seeking a remedy for any and all of Contractor's claims for breach of this Agreement by University. 12.19.1.3 Compliance with the contested case process provided in subchapter C of Chapter 2260 is a required prerequisite to seeking consent to xxx from the Legislature under Chapter 107,
Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims If a claim by a third party (including claims for breaches of fiduciary duties) is made against an Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto from the Company (in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party seeking such indemnity) or the Purchaser (in the case of a Company Indemnified Party seeking indemnity) (each of the Company or the Purchaser, as the case may be, in such capacity, an “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give notice in writing as promptly as reasonably practicable to such Indemnifying Party of any Proceeding commenced against or by it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have on account of this Article VI, so long as such failure shall not have materially prejudiced the position of such Indemnifying Party. Upon such notification, the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding brought by a third party, and, after such assumption, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any expenses thereafter incurred by it in connection with such Proceeding, except as described below. In any such Proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel (including local counsel), but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to promptly assume and thereafter conduct such defense, (ii) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (iii) in the reasonable determination of counsel for the Indemnified Party, representation of such Indemnified Party by counsel obtained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of a third-party claim, shall, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by such Indemnifying Party), but if settled with such consent or if there be final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party will advance expenses to an Indemnified Party as reasonably incurred so long as such indemnified party shall have provided the indemnifying party with a written undertaking to reimburse the indemnifying party for all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder (which shall include breaches of fiduciary duty if permitted above).
Indemnification Claims An Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any Third Party Action. Such notification shall be given within 20 days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third Party Action, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of Third Party Action involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The Non-controlling Party may participate in such defense at its own expense. The Controlling Party shall keep the Non-controlling Party advised of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall promptly furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have or receive with respect to such Third Party Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action. The fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Action shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement if (x) the Indemnified Party controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.3 or (y) the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests with respect to such Third Party Action. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Undisclosed Liabilities The Company has no liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether fixed or unfixed, secured or unsecured, known or unknown and whether absolute, accrued, contingent, or otherwise) except for liabilities or obligations reflected or reserved against in the Company Financial Statements incurred in the ordinary course of business or such liabilities or obligations disclosed in Schedule 2.01(g).
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.
