INDEMNIFICATION FOR INFRINGEMENT The terms of this Section 10 do not apply to the Community Edition Licensees. Licensor will defend or settle, at its own expense, any claim against Licensee asserting a copyright, trademark or trade secret which concerns the Product used within the scope of the Agreement hereunder. Licensor shall indemnify Licensee against any loss, expense or liability including reasonable attorney's fees from any damages alleged against Licensee. Licensor's obligations under this Section are conditioned on Licensee promptly notifying Licensor in writing after Licensee first receives notice of any such claim, action or allegation of infringement and, Licensor being given sole control of the defense of any action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise, with the reasonable assistance of Licensee. Licensor shall not be liable for any costs or expenditures incurred by Licensee without Licensor's prior written consent. If an injunction or order is obtained against Licensee's use of the Product by reason of the allegations of infringement, or if in Licensor's opinion the Product is likely to become the subject of a claim of infringement, Licensor shall, at its expense:
(a) Procure for Licensee the right to continue using the Product; or
(b) Modify or replace the Product with a compatible, functionally equivalent, non-infringing Product(s); or
(c) If neither (a) nor (b) is reasonably practical in Licensor's judgment, remove the Product and issue Licensee a pro rata credit based upon the License fees paid for the Product prorated over a thirty-six (36) month period from the date of shipment of the Product. Thereafter, termination shall proceed in accordance with the terms of Section 4. Licensor shall have no obligation under this Section to the extent the alleged infringement results from (i) modification of the Product other than by Licensor; (ii) the combination of the Product with products not provided by Licensor; or (iii) use of any older version of the Product when use of a newer version made available to Licensee would have avoided the infringement. This Section 10 is Licensor's entire liability and Licensee's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of intellectual property infringement of any kind.
Claimed Infringement Each Party will promptly notify the other Party if a Third Party brings any Action alleging patent infringement by Lian or Landos or any of their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees with respect to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Licensed Product or Joint Patent Rights (any such Action, an “Infringement Claim”) in the Territory. Lian will have the right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim in the Territory with respect to Lian’s activities, at Lian’s sole cost and expense, and Landos will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such Infringement Claim in the Territory by counsel of its own choice. Landos will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim with respect to Landos’ activities, including any such Infringement Claim in the Territory or outside of the Territory. Upon the request of the Party controlling the response to the Infringement Claim, the other Party will reasonably cooperate with the controlling Party in the reasonable defense of such Infringement Claim. The other Party will have the right to consult with the controlling Party concerning any Infringement Claim and to participate in and be represented by independent counsel in any associated litigation. If the Infringement Claim is brought against both Parties, then each Party will have the right to defend against the Infringement Claim. The Party defending an Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) will (a) consult with the other Party as to the strategy for the prosecution of such defense, (b) consider in good faith any comments from the other Party with respect thereto and (c) keep the other Party reasonably informed of any material steps taken and provide copies of all material documents filed, in connection with such defense. The Party controlling the defense against an Infringement Claim will have the right to settle such Infringement Claim on terms deemed reasonably appropriate by such Party, provided, that, neither Party will have the right to settle any Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party under this Agreement without the consent of such other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
Claim of Infringement In the event that use of any facilities or equipment (including software), becomes, or in the reasonable judgment of the Party who owns the affected network is likely to become, the subject of a claim, action, suit, or proceeding based on intellectual property infringement, then said Party shall promptly and at its sole expense and sole option, but subject to the limitations of liability set forth below:
9.4.1 modify or replace the applicable facilities or equipment (including software) while maintaining form and function, or
9.4.2 obtain a license sufficient to allow such use to continue.
9.4.3 In the event 9.4.1 or 9.4.2 are commercially unreasonable, then said Party may, terminate, upon reasonable notice, this contract with respect to use of, or services provided through use of, the affected facilities or equipment (including software), but solely to the extent required to avoid the infringement claim.
Intellectual Property Infringement Indemnification 1.1 We will defend you against any third party claim(s) that the Tyler Software or Documentation infringes that third party’s patent, copyright, or trademark, or misappropriates its trade secrets, and will pay the amount of any resulting adverse final judgment (or settlement to which we consent). You must notify us promptly in writing of the claim and give us sole control over its defense or settlement. You agree to provide us with reasonable assistance, cooperation, and information in defending the claim at our expense.
1.2 Our obligations under this Section G(1) will not apply to the extent the claim or adverse final judgment is based on your use of the Tyler Software in contradiction of this Agreement, including with non-licensed third parties, or your willful infringement.
1.3 If we receive information concerning an infringement or misappropriation claim related to the Tyler Software, we may, at our expense and without obligation to do so, either: (a) procure for you the right to continue its use; (b) modify it to make it non-infringing; or (c) replace it with a functional equivalent, in which case you will stop running the allegedly infringing Tyler Software immediately. Alternatively, we may decide to litigate the claim to judgment, in which case you may continue to use the Tyler Software consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
1.4 If an infringement or misappropriation claim is fully litigated and your use of the Tyler Software is enjoined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to paying any adverse final judgment (or settlement to which we consent), we will, at our option, either: (a) procure the right to continue its use; (b) modify it to make it non-infringing; or (c) replace it with a functional equivalent. This section provides your exclusive remedy for third party copyright, patent, or trademark infringement and trade secret misappropriation claims.
Infringement Indemnification If notified promptly in writing of any judicial action brought against City based on an allegation that City’s use of the Licensed Software infringes a patent, copyright, or any right of a third party or constitutes misuse or misappropriation of a trade secret or any other right in intellectual property (Infringement), Contractor will hold City harmless and defend such action at its own expense. Contractor will pay the costs and damages awarded in any such action or the cost of settling such action, provided that Contractor shall have sole control of the defense of any such action and all negotiations or its settlement or compromise. If notified promptly in writing of any informal claim (other than a judicial action) brought against City based on an allegation that City’s use of the Licensed Software constitutes Infringement, Contractor will pay the costs associated with resolving such claim and will pay the settlement amount (if any), provided that Contractor shall have sole control of the resolution of any such claim and all negotiations for its settlement. In the event a final injunction is obtained against City’s use of the Licensed Software by reason of Infringement, or in Contractor’s opinion City’s use of the Licensed Software is likely to become the subject of Infringement, Contractor may at its option and expense: (a) procure for City the right to continue to use the Licensed Software as contemplated hereunder, (b) replace the Licensed Software with a non-infringing, functionally equivalent substitute Licensed Software, or (c) suitably modify the Licensed Software to make its use hereunder non-infringing while retaining functional equivalency to the unmodified version of the Licensed Software. If none of these options is reasonably available to Contractor, then the Agreement may be terminated at the option of either Party hereto and Contractor shall refund to City all amounts paid under this Agreement for the license of such infringing Licensed Software. Any unauthorized modification or attempted modification of the Licensed Software by City or any failure by City to implement any improvements or updates to the Licensed Software, as supplied by Contractor, shall void this indemnity unless City has obtained prior written authorization from Contractor permitting such modification, attempted modification or failure to implement. Contractor shall have no liability for any claim of Infringement based on City’s use or combination of the Licensed Software with products or data of the type for which the Licensed Software was neither designed nor intended to be used.
Action for Indemnification To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by Indemnitee with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, unless Indemnitee is successful in establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding shall determine that, despite Indemnitee’s failure to establish their right to indemnification, Indemnitee is entitled to indemnity for such expenses; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8(b) is intended to limit the Corporation’s obligation with respect to the advancement of expenses to Indemnitee in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, as provided in Section 4 hereof.
Patent Infringement 9.1 If either Party learns of the infringement of a Prospective Patent, in any jurisdiction within the Territory, it shall so inform the other Party in writing, including any evidence of such infringement. University may not notify a third party of the infringement of a Prospective Patent, save for its legal advisers, without first obtaining written consent of Licensee, which consent shall not be unreasonably denied or delayed. Both Parties shall use their reasonable commercial efforts in cooperation with each other to terminate such infringement.
9.2 Licensee shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any action, suit or proceeding to enforce the Prospective Patent with respect to infringement of the Prospective Patent and to defend any declaratory judgment with respect thereto, in each case within the Territory (“Action”). University hereby agrees to assist and cooperate with Licensee, at Licensee’s expense (including payment for University’s expert’s time, and other expenses so long as such expenses are properly documented), to enable Licensee to prosecute and maintain such Action. University’s agreement to assist Licensee includes, at Licensee’s reasonable request and when it is required by law, government regulation or court order, University’s agreement to join or to procure its Affiliates to join as a nominal party to achieve sufficient legal standing for Licensee to prosecute and maintain such Action provided that, if University participates in the Action only as a nominal party, University shall have no responsibility (other than to join as a nominal party) nor be liable for any costs or expenses in relation to or arising from such Action. For clarity, such liabilities for costs or expenses shall be the responsibility of Licensee. If Licensee invites University or its Affiliates to take a more active role (other than as a nominal party) in an Action as a co-party, University shall have its sole discretion to decide joining or not and on terms to be agreed with Licensee on a case by case basis. Licensee shall have the right to settle any Action or consent to an adverse judgment thereto, in its sole discretion, except that Licensee may not settle such action by agreeing to the invalidation of a Prospective Patent or any claim therein without University’s prior written consent. Any recovery obtained as a result of an Action, whether by judgment, award, decree or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of Licensee’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including any attorneys, expert and court fees), and the balance shall be considered to be Net Sales Value, and subject to the royalty payments at [***]% as set forth in Clause 5, and the remaining balance shall be recovered by Licensee as damages.
9.3 Subject to Clause 9.2, if University commences or defends any suit or proceedings on its own account, University shall do so at its own expense. University shall have the right to settle any such action or consent to an adverse judgment thereto, in its sole discretion, except that University may not settle such action that may impair, damage or otherwise adversely affect the licence granted to Licensee under Clause 2.1, Licensee’s use of such licence, any Licensed Product, or any of Licensee’s rights/obligations hereunder, without Licensee’s prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any recovery obtained as a result of such action, whether by judgment, award, decree, or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of University’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including expert, attorneys and court fees), and the balance shall be distributed between University and Licensee at a ratio of 65:35 in all cases which do not result in a sub-licence to a third party. If a suit or proceedings result in a sub-licence to a third party, then any recovery, whether by judgment, award, decree, or settlement, shall first be applied to reimbursement of University’s expenses in bringing such suit or proceeding (including expert, attorneys and court fees), and the balance to be paid to Licensee, provided that such balance shall be shared between University and Licensee according to the provisions in Clause 5.3 herein.
Third Party Infringement (a) In the event that either ALGORX or BRIDGE becomes aware of any product made, used, imported, offered for sale or sold in the Territory in the Field which it believes to infringe a BRIDGE Patent Right or constitute a misappropriation of BRIDGE Know-How in the Field, such Party (the "Notifying Party") shall promptly advise the other Party of all the relevant facts and circumstances known by the Notifying Party in connection with the infringement or misappropriation.
(b) The Parties agree that ALGORX shall have the first right, at its own expense, but not the obligation, to enforce any BRIDGE Patent Rights or BRIDGE Know-How against such infringement or misappropriation. BRIDGE shall fully cooperate with ALGORX with respect to the investigation and prosecution of such alleged infringement or misappropriation including consenting to the joining of BRIDGE, at ALGORX expense, as a party to such action, as ALGORX deems necessary or appropriate.
(c) BRIDGE shall have the right (at its own expense), but not the obligation, to enforce, and ALGORX does hereby grant to BRIDGE the right to enforce, any BRIDGE Patent Rights or BRIDGE Know-How against such infringement or misappropriation, and ALGORX shall fully cooperate with BRIDGE with respect to the investigation and prosecution of such alleged infringement or misappropriation including consenting to the joining of BRIDGE, at BRIDGE expense, as a Party to such action, if necessary. BRIDGE may, in its sole discretion, exercise this right if:
(i) ALGORX shall fail, within six (6) months after notifying BRIDGE or receiving notice from BRIDGE of the infringement, to institute an action or take other substantial measures to axxxx such alleged infringement, or
(ii) ALGORX earlier notifies BRIDGE in writing that ALGORX does not plan to terminate such infringement or institute such action.
(d) The Party prosecuting such infringement action shall have the right to control such litigation and shall bear all legal expenses (including court costs and legal fees and expenses), including settlement thereof; provided, however that no settlement or consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any infringement action brought by a Party pursuant to this Article 9.2 may be entered into without the prior written consent of the other Party if such settlement would require the other Party to be subject to an injunction or to make a monetary payment or would restrict the claims in or admit any invalidity of any of the BRIDGE Patent Rights.
(e) Any damages or costs recovered by a Party in connection with any action filed by it as permitted hereunder shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, to reimburse the prosecuting Party for its own costs and expenses incurred in prosecuting such action (including reasonable attorneys' fees), (ii) second, to reimburse the other Party for its out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred (including reasonable attorneys' fees) by it in assisting such Party in that action, and then (iii) sharing the remainder as follows:
(1) if ALGORX is prosecuting the action, BRIDGE shall be entitled to a royalty on the defendant's infringing sales under BRIDGE's patent rights, as specified in column A of the table in Article 5.1 (or, if the claim is for misappropriation of BRIDGE Know-How, the royalty specified in column B of that table), and ALGORX shall retain the balance; and (2) if BRIDGE is prosecuting the action, ALGORX shall be entitled to that portion allocable to its lost profits or defendant's profits, whichever is less, from the defendant's infringing sales and Bridge shall retain the balance. In the event that the Parties agree to prosecute such infringement jointly, the Parties will split all damages or costs recovered equally, after first reimbursing each Party pari passu for any out-of-pocket expenses hereunder.
Indemnification for Third Party Claims
(a) Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its shareholders and Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance by any Project Party of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, the Contractor, any Subcontractor, and its respective employees or agents.
(b) Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its managers, officers, employees and agents, from and against all third party Claims and Liabilities for injury, including death, and property damage caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of the Transaction Documents to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer, its employees or agents.
(c) Either Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the Party required to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any Claim as to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, and the Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) to assume the defense of any Claim or litigation resulting therefrom; provided that:
(i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Claim or litigation shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party;
(ii) the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, except the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for its participation in such defense to the extent that the Indemnifying Party requests the Indemnified Party to participate in its own defense; and
(iii) the omission by the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that such omission results in a failure of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party and Indemnifying Party is damaged as a result of such failure to give notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any Claim related to the indemnity being provided hereunder without the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
(d) With regard to any Claim or Liability which is the result of the joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Seller and Buyer, the Parties agree to jointly defend any Claim with respect thereto that is based on such joint or concurrent fault or negligence of Buyer and Seller. Any Claim of contribution or indemnification between Buyer and Seller relating to such Claims shall be resolved on the basis of the percentage of fault or negligence and the Parties agree to reserve the determination of such percentage until after resolution of such Claim. Such pro rata share shall be based upon a final judicial determination of the Parties’ comparative fault or negligence or, in the absence of such determination, by mutual agreement.
(e) Nothing in this Section 26.1 is intended to allow any Indemnified Party to be indemnified from and against any third party Claims and Liabilities caused by, arising out of, or in connection with the performance of this Agreement to the extent any of such Claims or Liabilities were caused by, arose out of, or were in any way incidental to or in connection with its own negligence or intentional misconduct.
Third Party Infringement Claims In the event any claim or action for infringement of any patent, trademark, or other intellectual property right shall be made or brought by a third party against Seller, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates because of, or in anticipation of, the manufacture and supply of Product by Seller to Purchaser hereunder, or the marketing, sale or distribution of such Product to Purchaser Customers in the Territory by Purchaser hereunder (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”), the party first receiving such notice of the Third Party Infringement Claim shall promptly notify the other party. With respect to the Third Party Infringement Claim, Seller and Purchaser each hereby agrees that all Damages arising from or related to the Third Party Infringement Claim (including any legal fees and associated costs incurred in defending the Third Party Infringement Claim and any fees, royalties or other amounts paid in settlement or upon judgment) shall be shared as follows:
(a) Except as provided in clause (b) below, Seller shall be 100% responsible for all Damages arising from any Third Party Infringement Claim, including any fees, royalties or other amounts agreed to be paid in settlement or upon judgment of the Lawsuit or otherwise; and
(b) Purchaser shall be 100% responsible for all Damages arising from any Third Party Infringement Claim with respect to the use of Purchaser Trademarks. Each party agrees to indemnify the other party to ensure that Damages arising from any Third Party Infringement Claim are allocated in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) above. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, Seller shall control the defense any Third Party Infringement Claim described in clause (a) above and Purchaser shall control the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim described in clause (b) above. The party controlling the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim shall have the sole right to defend or settle any such Third Party Infringement Claim; provided, however, that such settlement does not impose any obligation or burden on the other party without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The party controlling the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim shall keep the other party, at its request, materially informed of the status and progress of the defense of the Third Party Infringement Claim. No Third Party Infringement Claim shall be settled by the party who is not controlling the defense of such Third Party Infringement Claim without the prior written consent of the party controlling such defense. The non-controlling party, its employees, agents and Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with the party (and its legal representatives) controlling the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim in the investigation and defense of such Third Party Infringement Claim. Notwithstanding the above, and by way of clarification, neither party shall be obligated to indemnify the other party hereunder for modification or misuse of the Product by the other party or by wholesalers or the customers of either party. The provisions of this Section 17.4 shall be notwithstanding any conflicting provisions set forth in this Agreement, including Sections 17.1, 17.2 and 17.3.
