Defense of Tax Claims Sample Clauses

Defense of Tax Claims. This Lease does not grant to NAI any right to control the defense of or contest any tax claim for which an Interested Party may have a right to indemnity under subparagraph 5(C), other than the right to contest Local Impositions as provided in subparagraph 5(A), nor does this Lease grant to NAI the right to inspect the income tax returns, books or records of any Interested Party. Nevertheless, if a tax claim is asserted against BNPPLC for which it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to subparagraph 5(C), BNPPLC will consider in good faith any defenses and strategies proposed by NAI with regard to such claim. Further, if any such tax claim is asserted against BNPPLC which involves assertions that apply not only to the transactions contemplated by this Lease, but also to other similar transactions in which BNPPLC has participated, then BNPPLC will not settle the claim on a basis that results in a disproportionately greater tax burden with respect to the transactions contemplated herein than with respect to such other similar transactions. For example, if taxing authorities assert that both this Lease and other comparable lease agreements made by BNPPLC are not financing arrangements as intended by the parties thereto, and on the basis of such assertions the taxing authorities claim that BNPPLC owes income taxes which are not Excluded Taxes, then BNPPLC will not settle the claim in a manner that would cause NAI’s liability under subparagraph 5(C) to be disproportionately greater than the indemnity obligation of another similarly situated tenant of BNPPLC under another lease agreement with an indemnity provision comparable to subparagraph 5(C). Also, BNPPLC will not grant to another tenant the right to dictate to BNPPLC the tax position BNPPLC must take in regard to the Property or the Operative Documents, except that BNPPLC may include provisions comparable to the foregoing in other leases to assure other tenants against a disproportionately greater burden than NAI will bear in regard to any settlement of a tax claim by BNPPLC.

Defense of Tax Claims. The Indemnifying Party may elect to control, and may elect to have sole discretion in handling, settling or contesting any audit inquiry, information request, audit proceeding, suit, contest or any other action with respect to a Tax controversy for which it would be required to indemnify the other party if it acknowledges in writing that it has sole liability for any Taxes that might arise in such proceeding and agrees in writing to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee from and against and in respect of any such Taxes without regard for the limitations set forth in Section 9.3 (any such Tax controversy, a “Directed Tax Controversy”). The Indemnifying Party shall not compromise or settle any proceeding with respect to a Tax controversy without obtaining the Indemnitee’s prior written consent if such compromise or settlement would have the effect of increasing any Tax liability of the Company or otherwise adversely affecting any Tax attribute of the Company, in each case for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to cause a Tax controversy to become a Directed Tax Controversy in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 9.4(c), the Indemnitee shall cause to be delivered to the Indemnifying Party powers of attorney authorizing the Indemnifying Party to represent the Company before the relevant taxing authority and such other documents as are reasonably necessary for the Indemnifying Party to control the conduct of such Directed Tax Controversy, consistent with the terms of this Section 9.4(c). The parties shall jointly control, and shall each have the right to participate in all activities and strategic decisions with respect to, any Tax controversy that is not a Directed Tax Controversy. For all purposes under this Section 9.4, if the Indemnifying Party is deemed to be the Stockholders, then all notices to and from the Indemnifying Party shall be made to and from the Stockholder Representative, and all rights of the Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be held by the Stockholder Representative.

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.

  • Notice; Defense of Claims An indemnified party may make claims for indemnification hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the indemnifying party within the period in which indemnification claims can be made hereunder. If indemnification is sought for a claim or liability asserted by a third party, the indemnified party shall also give written notice thereof to the indemnifying party promptly after it receives notice of the claim or liability being asserted, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability except to the extent that it is prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the bases for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being asserted by a third party. Within 20 days after receiving such notice the indemnifying party shall give written notice to the indemnified party stating whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend against any third party claim or liability at its own cost and expense. If the indemnifying party fails to give notice that it disputes an indemnification claim within 20 days after receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the claim, which shall become immediately due and payable. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to direct the defense against a third party claim or liability with counsel selected by it (subject to the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) as long as the indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and diligent defense. The indemnified party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in the defense of a third party claim or liability at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, that if the named parties to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party is advised that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the indemnified party may engage separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend a third party claim or liability is given by the indemnifying party, or if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be conducted by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right, at the expense of the indemnifying party, to undertake the defense of such claim or liability (with counsel selected by the indemnified party), and to compromise or settle it, exercising reasonable business judgment. If the third party claim or liability is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall make available such information and assistance as the indemnifying party may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in such defense, at the expense of the indemnifying party.

  • Litigation; Claims Any rights (including indemnification) and claims and recoveries under litigation of Seller against third parties arising out of or relating to events prior to the Closing Date;

  • 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.
