Infringement and Litigation 11.1 Each party shall promptly notify the other in writing in the event that it obtains knowledge of infringing activity by third parties, or is sued or threatened with an infringement suit, in any country in the LICENSED TERRITORY as a result of activities that concern the LICENSED PATENTS, and shall supply the other party with documentation of the infringing activities that it possesses.
11.2 During the TERM of this Agreement:
(a) LICENSEE shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to defend the LICENSED PATENTS against infringement or interference in the FIELD and in the LICENSED TERRITORY by third parties. This right includes bringing any legal action for infringement and defending any counter claim of invalidity or action of a third party for declaratory judgment for non-infringement or non-interference. If, in the reasonable opinion of LICENSEE’s counsel, YALE is required to be a named party to any such suit for standing purposes, LICENSEE may join YALE as a party; provided, however, that (i) YALE shall not be the first named party in any such action, (ii) the pleadings and any public statements about the action shall state that the action is being pursued by LICENSEE and that LICENSEE has joined YALE as a party; and (iii) LICENSEE shall keep YALE reasonably apprised of all developments in any such action. LICENSEE may settle such suits solely in its own name and solely at its own expense and through counsel of its own selection; provided, however, that no settlement shall be entered without YALE’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the foregoing, YALE may withhold its consent to any settlement that would in any manner affect the validity, scope or enforceability of any LICENSED PATENT. LICENSEE shall bear the expense of such legal actions. Except for providing reasonable assistance (including joining such actions as described above), at the request and expense of LICENSEE, YALE shall have no obligation regarding the legal actions described in Article 11.2 unless required to participate by law. However, YALE shall have the right to participate in any such action through its own counsel and at its own expense. Any recovery shall first be applied to LICENSEE’s out of pocket expenses and second shall be applied to YALE’s out of pocket expenses, including legal fees. YALE shall recover [***]% of any excess recovery over those expenses.
(b) In the event LICENSEE fails to initiate and pursue or participate in the actions described in Article 11.2(a) or in lieu of such actions to initiate negotiations for a sublicense of the infringer, and the infringement has not otherwise abated, within [***] of notification of infringement from YALE, YALE may, in its sole discretion, convert the LICENSE granted in Article 3 to a non-exclusive license. Additionally, YALE shall have the right to initiate legal action such as that described in Article 11.2(a) at its own expense. If, in the reasonable opinion of YALE’s counsel, LICENSEE is required to be a named party to any such suit for standing purposes, YALE may join LICENSEE as party plaintiff to uphold the LICENSED PATENTS, provided, however, that YALE shall keep LICENSEE reasonably apprised of all developments in any such action. In such case, LICENSEE shall provide reasonable assistance to YALE if requested to do so, at YALE’s expense. YALE may settle such actions solely through its own counsel any recovery shall be retained by YALE. YALE may terminate the LICENSE in the country where such legal action is taken.
(c) In the event LICENSEE is permanently enjoined from exercising its LICENSE under this Agreement pursuant to an infringement action brought by a third party, or if both LICENSEE and YALE elect not to undertake the defense or settlement of a suit alleging infringement for a period of [***] from notice of such suit, then either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the country where the suit was filed with respect to the LICENSED PATENT following [***] written notice to the other party in accordance with the terms of Article 15.
Third Party Litigation In the event that a Third Party institutes a patent or other infringement suit against any of NovaDel, PAR or HANA or any of its respective Affiliates during the Term, alleging manufacture, use or sale of a Licensed Product in the Territory, infringes one or more patent or other intellectual property rights held by such Third Party (an “Infringement Suit”), the Parties shall cooperate with one another in defending such suit. PAR, as the NDA holder, shall have the first right to direct and control, at its expense, any Infringement Suit (including settlement negotiations, settlement or compromise thereof) to the extent that it relates to the manufacture, use or sale of a Licensed Product but does not implicate the Licensed Technology or Licensed Process. In the event that the Infringement Suit relates to the use of the Licensed Technology or Licensed Process, NovaDel shall have the first right to direct and control, at its expense, any such Infringement Suit (including settlement negotiations, settlement or compromise thereof). To the extent that any amounts become payable to any Third Party as a result of such action, whether through judgment or settlement, then PAR shall, unless HANA is jointly promoting and commercializing the Licensed Product pursuant to Section 2.4 and subject to Section 12.2, bear [***] percent ([***]%) of such amounts with respect to the Exploitation of the Licensed Product; provided, however, that PAR shall have the right to credit [***] percent ([***]%) of any amounts paid by PAR through judgment or settlement with respect to such country against the royalty payments to be paid by PAR to HANA with respect to the sale of the Licensed Product under Section 6.3; provided further, however, that no royalty payment when due, regardless of the amount or number of credits available to PAR shall be reduced by more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the amounts otherwise owed pursuant to Section 6.3 in any calendar quarter. Credits not exhausted in any calendar quarter may be carried into future calendar quarters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that no payments are due or owing, or contemplated to be due or owing, by PAR to HANA under Article 6 with respect to the sale of the Licensed Product, then NovaDel shall pay to PAR such amount owed to a Third Party up to a cap of [***]% of such amount owed to such Third Party, less any amount already credited to PAR under this Section 10.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NovaDel shall have no obligation under this Section 10.3 for any costs, expenses or damages that are paid or payable to a Third Party as a result of an actual or alleged infringement by PAR or HANA to the extent such costs, expenses or damages result from the use of a Product Trademark.

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.

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.

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
