Customers. VMRx is not a licensed pharmacy, whereas RxFS is a licensed pharmacy. Accordingly, VMRx will act as a marketer for the sale of prescription medications.

RxFS responsibilities will include the right and obligation to determine what documentation is necessary for the fulfillment of a prescription request, and the procedures for filling such prescriptions, including the determination not to fill such prescription. VMRx will not establish a pharmacy patient relationship with such customers, and it will not participate in the prescription fulfillment process.

VMRx shall have sole and exclusive rights to the database and the use of the information contained in the database , except that VMRx will share these rights with RxFS where it concerns prescription fulfillment services .

Notice and Defense of Third-Party Claims. If a claim for indemnification hereunder arises from a claim or demand from a third party, the rights of the indemnified parties to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement and any Schedule shall be governed by the following:
Exhibit 10.2
(1)
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of any claim, allegation or facts which may result in a claim for indemnification hereunder, an indemnified party shall give the indemnifying party prompt notice thereof. The failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnified party's ability to seek reimbursement unless such failure has materially and adversely affected the indemnifying party's ability to defend the claims.
(2)
An indemnified party shall have the right (i) to employ separate counsel in any action as to which indemnification may be sought under any provision of this Agreement and to participate in the defense thereof, or (ii) to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnified party, to assume the defense of any such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (x) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (y) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense thereof without reservation and employ counsel within a reasonable period of time after being given the notice required above, and as a consequence thereof the indemnified party has employed separate counsel to protect its rights, or (z) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such indemnified party and the indemnifying party and such indemnified party shall have been advised by its counsel that representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such indemnified parties having actual or potential differing interest with the indemnifying party.
(3) The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such written consent, or if there be a final judgment against any indemnified party in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified parties to the extent provided above from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment.
(d)
Limitations on Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY'S LIABILITY HEREUNDER INCLUDE ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH POTENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE.
Exhibit 10.2
(e)
Dispute Resolution. To be selected jointly by two mediators selected by the parties.
(1)
If there is any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating to interpretation or breach of this Agreement, the parties will endeavor to settle it promptly.
(2)
If such a dispute cannot be resolved, the parties will promptly initiate and participate in good faith mediation of the dispute, with the mediator to be selected jointly by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, by a mediator to be selected jointly by two mediators selected by the parties.
(3)
If the dispute is not resolved through mediation, the parties will promptly submit such dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and regulations of The American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), with the arbitrator to be a retired federal or state court judge jointly selected by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, by an arbitrator that satisfies such qualifications and that is jointly selected by two arbitrators selected by the parties. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(4)
Nothing shall prevent either party from directly seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in situations where damages would not adequately compensate for an alleged breach of this Agreement.
(5)
The prevailing party in any mediation, arbitration or legal action to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in such action or proceeding.
