PATENT AND COPYRIGHT INDEMNIFICATION a. The Contractor, at its expense, shall defend, indemnify, and hold DSHS harmless from and against any claims against DSHS that any Product or Work Product supplied hereunder, or DSHS’s use of the Product or Work Product within the terms of this Contract, infringes any patent, copyright, utility model, industrial design, mask work, trade secret, trademark, or other similar proprietary right of a third party worldwide. Product shall mean any Contractor-supplied equipment, Software, or documentation. The Contractor shall pay all costs of such defense and settlement and any penalties, costs, damages and attorneys’ fees awarded by a court or incurred by DSHS provided that DSHS:
(1) Promptly notifies the Contractor in writing of the claim, but DSHS’s failure to provide timely notice shall only relieve the Contractor from its indemnification obligations if and to the extent such late notice prejudiced the defense or resulted in increased expense or loss to the Contractor; and
(2) Cooperates with and agrees to use its best efforts to encourage the Office of the Attorney General of Washington to grant the Contractor sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations.
b. If such claim has occurred, or in the Contractor’s opinion is likely to occur, DSHS agrees to permit the Contractor, at its option and expense, either to procure for DSHS the right to continue using the Product or Work Product or to replace or modify the same so that they become non-infringing and functionally equivalent. If use of the Product or Work Product is enjoined by a court and the Contractor determines that none of these alternatives is reasonably available, the Contractor, at its risk and expense, will take back the Product or Work Product and provide DSHS a refund. In the case of Work Product, the Contractor shall refund to DSHS the entire amount DSHS paid to the Contractor for the Contractor’s provision of the Work Product. In the case of Product, the Contractor shall refund to DSHS its depreciated value. No termination charges will be payable on such returned Product, and DSHS will pay only those charges that were payable prior to the date of such return. Depreciated value shall be calculated on the basis of a useful life of four (4) years commencing on the date of purchase and shall be an equal amount per year over said useful life. The depreciation for fractional parts of a year shall be prorated on the basis of three hundred sixty- five (365) days per year. In the event the Product has been installed less than one (1) year, all costs associated with the initial installation paid by DSHS shall be refunded by the Contractor.
c. The Contractor has no liability for any claim of infringement arising solely from:
(1) The Contractor’s compliance with any designs, specifications or instructions of DSHS;
(2) Modification of the Product or Work Product by DSHS or a third party without the prior knowledge and approval of the Contractor; or
(3) Use of the Product or Work Product in a way not specified by the Contractor; unless the claim arose against the Contractor’s Product or Work Product independently of any of these specified actions.
d. This Section, Patent and Copyright Indemnification, is intended to survive the expiration or termination of the agreement.
