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.
Infringement Claims If the manufacture, sale or use of any Licensed Product in the Territory pursuant to this Agreement results in any claim, suit or proceeding alleging patent infringement against Unigene or GSK, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party hereto. If GSK is not named as a Party in such a claim, suit or proceeding, GSK may, at its own expense and through counsel of its own choice, seek leave to intervene in such claim, suit or proceeding. Unigene agrees not to oppose such intervention. If GSK, and not Unigene, is named as a Party to such claim, suit or proceeding, GSK shall have the right to control the defense and settlement of such claim, suit or proceeding, at its own expense, using counsel of its own choice, however Unigene, at its own expense and through counsel of its own choice, may seek to intervene if the claim, suit or proceeding relates to the commercialization of the Licensed Product in the Field, and in such event, GSK agrees not to oppose such intervention. If GSK is named as a Party and Unigene shall, at any time, tender its defense to GSK, then GSK shall defend Unigene in such claim, suit or proceeding, at GSK’s own expense and through counsel of its own choice, and GSK shall control the defense and settlement of any such claim, suit or proceeding; provided, GSK shall not enter into any agreement which (i) extends or purports to exercise GSK’s rights under Unigene’s Licensed Technology beyond the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) makes any admission regarding (a) wrongdoing on the part of Unigene, or (b) the invalidity, unenforceability or absence of infringement of any Unigene Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights, without the prior written consent of Unigene, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding and shall keep each other reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding. Nothing in this Section 6.5 shall limit or modify the provisions of Article 9, which may apply to such infringement claims as discussed herein.

The Party subject to such Infringement Action shall have the right to direct and control the defense thereof, at its own expense with counsel of its choice; provided, however, that (i) if such Infringement Action involves the Territory, Licensee shall have the right to assume the defense thereof in the Territory and to direct and control the defense thereof, at its own expense with counsel of its choice, (ii) if such Infringement Action involves Japan, Licensor shall have the right to assume the defense thereof within Japan and to direct and control the defense thereof, at its own expense with counsel of its choice, (iii) if such Infringement Action involves both the Territory and Japan, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith with respect to their respective defenses of such Infringement Actions, and (iv) in all cases the other Party may participate in the defense and/or settlement thereof, at its own expense with counsel of its choice. In any event, the Party that is defending the Infringement Action (the “Defending Party”) agrees to keep the other Party hereto reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such Infringement Action and the Parties shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of any such suit or Infringement Action. If Licensee is the Defending Party, Licensee agrees not to settle such Infringement Action, or make any admissions or assert any position in such Infringement Action, in a manner that would adversely affect the Licensed Product or the manufacture, use or sale of the Licensed Product within or outside the Territory, without the prior written consent of Licensor, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and similarly if Licensor is the Defending Party, Licensor agrees not to settle such Infringement Action, or make any admissions or assert any position in such Infringement Action, in a manner that would adversely affect the Licensed Product, or the manufacturing, use or sale of the Licensed Product, in the Territory, without the prior written consent of Licensee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

AbbVie shall defend and control the defense of any such claim, suit, or proceeding at its own expense (except to the extent any such cost or expense is allocable to the Galapagos Territory, in which event such cost or expense, to the extent reasonable and reasonably incurred, shall be reimbursed by Galapagos in accordance with Section 7.9), using counsel of its own choice. Galapagos may participate in any such claim, suit, or proceeding with counsel of its choice at its own expense. Without limitation of the foregoing, if AbbVie finds it necessary or desirable to join Galapagos as a party to any such action, Galapagos shall execute all papers and perform such acts as shall be reasonably required at AbbVie’s expense. Each Party shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit, or proceeding. Unless otherwise set forth herein, AbbVie shall have the right to settle such claim, including by entering into a license agreement pursuant to Section 7.6; provided, that AbbVie shall not settle any litigation under this Section 7.4 in a manner that diminishes or has a material adverse effect on the rights or interest of Galapagos, or in a manner that imposes any costs (except as set forth in the immediately following proviso) or liability on, or involves any admission by, Galapagos, without Galapagos’ express written consent; provided, further, that entering into an agreement with such Third Party pursuant to Section 7.6 shall not require the consent of Galapagos. Each Party agrees to provide the other Party with copies of all pleadings filed in such action and to allow the other Party reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the claims. AbbVie shall be entitled to deduct […***…] percent ([…***…]%) of the reasonable out-of-pocket attorney’s fees and court costs borne by AbbVie (and not reimbursed by Galapagos pursuant to Section 7.9) in defending such claim, suit, or proceeding brought by a Third Party alleging that a Molecule, Product or the Manufacturing Process (which Manufacturing Process AbbVie has not modified in any substantial part pertinent to the asserted claims in said proceeding) infringe one (1) or more Patents controlled by the Third Party. Such deduction shall be applied in a given Calendar Quarter from the sales-based milestones due to Galapagos pursuant to Section 6.4.1, and to the extent not exhausted within an […***…] ([…***…]) month period, may be deducted from royalties due to Galapagos pursuant to Section 6.5. Any recoveries by AbbVie of any sanctions awarded to AbbVie and against a party asserting a claim being defended under this Section 7.4 shall be applied as follows: such recovery shall be applied first to (i) reimburse AbbVie for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs of defending such claim, suit, or proceedings to the extent not deducted from sales-based milestones pursuant to the previous sentence, and (ii) reimburse Galapagos for sales-based milestones deductions pursuant to the previous sentence. The balance of any such recoveries shall be retained or provided to AbbVie and included in calculation of Net Sales for the relevant Product, except to the extent such recovery is attributable to the Galapagos Territory, in which event it shall be retained by or provided to Galapagos. ***Confidential Treatment Requested***

Defense of Third Party Claims Upon receipt by the Indemnifying Party of a notice from the Indemnified Party with respect to any claim of a third party against the Indemnified Party, for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend all such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith. If the Indemnifying Party shall elect to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any claim against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle any claim for which indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder; provided that, to the extent that such settlement requires the Indemnified Party to take, or prohibits the Indemnified Party from taking, any action or purports to obligate the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a third party claim and disputes the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of such claim through counsel of its choice, the reasonable costs of which shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s expense in the event that the Indemnified Party’s right of indemnification is ultimately established through settlement, compromise or other legal proceeding. In no circumstance may the Indemnified Party compromise or settle a claim with a third party for which it seeks indemnification from the Indemnifying Party without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
