Right to Defend Upon receipt of notice of any matter for which indemnification might be claimed by an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to defend, contest or otherwise protect against any such matter at its own cost and expense, and the Indemnified Party must cooperate in any such defense or other action. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate at its own expense in defense thereof by counsel of its own choosing, but the Indemnifying Party be entitled to control the defense unless the Indemnified Party has relieved the Indemnifying Party from liability with respect to the particular matter or the Indemnifying Party fails to assume defense of the matter. In the event the Indemnifying Party shall fail to defend, contest or otherwise protect in a timely manner against any matter, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, thereafter to defend, contest or otherwise protect against the same and make any compromise or settlement thereof and recover the reasonable cost thereof from the Indemnifying Party including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and all amounts paid as a result of such suit, action, investigation, claim or proceeding or the compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party must send a written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any such proposed settlement or compromise, which settlement or compromise the Indemnifying Party may reject, in its reasonable judgment, within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice. Failure to reject such notice within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an acceptance of such settlement or compromise. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to effect a settlement or compromise over the objection of the Indemnifying Party; provided, that if (i) the Indemnifying Party is contesting such claim in good faith or (ii) the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party waives any right to indemnity therefor. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of such matters, the Indemnified Party shall not, so long as the Indemnifying Party does not abandon the defense thereof, be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than the reasonable costs of investigation undertaken by the Indemnified Party with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.
Duty to Defend The Consultant’s obligation in Subsection 11.1 above applies to the maximum extent allowed by law and includes defending the City, its officers, employees and agents as set forth in Sections 2778 and 2782.8 of the California Civil Code. Upon the City’s written request, the Consultant, at its own expense, shall defend any suit or action that is subject to the obligation in Subsection 11.1 above.
Agreement to Defend In the event any claim, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding by any governmental body or other person or other legal or administrative proceeding is commenced that questions the validity or legality of the transactions contemplated hereby or seeks damages in connection therewith, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their reasonable efforts to defend against and respond thereto.
Opportunity to Defend The indemnifying party may elect to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any Asserted Liability; provided, however, the indemnifying party may not compromise or settle any Asserted Liability without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (i) such compromise or settlement requires no more than a monetary payment for which the indemnified party hereunder is fully indemnified and such settlement provides a complete release of, or dismissal with prejudice of, all claims against the indemnified party for all matters that were or could have been asserted in connection with such claim, or (ii) involves no other matters binding upon the indemnified party (other than obligations of confidentiality). If the indemnifying party elects to compromise or defend such Asserted Liability, it will within thirty (30) calendar days from receipt of the Claims Notice notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so, and the indemnified party will cooperate, at the expense of the indemnifying party, in the compromise of, or defense against, such Asserted Liability. If the indemnified party fails to cooperate, then each indemnifying party will be relieved of its obligations under this Section 6 only to the extent that such indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure to cooperate. Unless and until the indemnifying party elects to defend the Asserted Liability, the indemnified party will have the right, at its option, to do so in such manner as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that the indemnified party will not settle or compromise any Asserted Liability for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any Asserted Liability that it has elected not to defend with its own counsel and at its own expense.
Right to Grieve Where an employee feels that she has been aggrieved by a decision of the Employer related to promotion, demotion or transfer, the employee may grieve the decision at Step 3 of the grievance procedure in Article 9 of this Agreement within seven (7) days of being notified of the results.
Failure to Defend If the Indemnifying Party, within a reasonable time after notice of any such Claim, fails to defend such Claim actively and in good faith, the Indemnified Party will (upon further notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to such Claim, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter have no right to challenge the Indemnified Party's defense, compromise, settlement or consent to judgment.
Notice and Opportunity to Defend Promptly after the receipt by Buyer or the Company and/or the Seller of notice of any action, proceeding, claim or potential claim (any of which is hereinafter individually referred to as a “Circumstance”) which could give rise to a right to indemnification under this Agreement, such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the party or parties who may become obligated to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”). Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis and amount, if ascertainable, of any claim that would be based upon the Circumstance. The failure to give such notice promptly shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, unless the Indemnified Party establishes that the Indemnifying Party either had knowledge of the Circumstance or was not prejudiced by the failure to give notice of the Circumstance. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to compromise or defend the claim, at its own expense and by its own counsel, and otherwise control any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnified Party, provided that any such compromise or control shall be subject to obtaining the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party which shall not be unreasonably withheld. An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any costs of settlement incurred without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If any Indemnifying Party undertakes to compromise or defend any asserted liability, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise of or defense against any such asserted liability. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party, provided such costs and expenses have been previously approved by the Indemnifying Party. In any event, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its own expense to participate in the defense of an asserted liability.
Right to Object Class Members shall be permitted to object to the Settlement. Requirements for filing an objection shall be set forth in the Preliminary Approval Order.
Right to Reject The Department reserves the right to accept or reject all proposals, or separable portions thereof, and to waive any minor irregularity, technicality, or omission if the Department determines that doing so shall serve the Department’s best interests. The Department may reject any proposal not submitted in the manner specified by the solicitation documents.
Right to Views Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to limit, impair or affect the right of any employee or representative of an employee to the expression or communication of a view, complaint or opinion on any matter so long as such action does not interfere with the performance of the duties of employment as prescribed in this Agreement or circumvent the rights of the exclusive representative.
