SunPower, at its own expense, shall defend, indemnify and hold Manufacturer harmless from and against any and all expenses, costs, losses, liabilities, and/or damages incurred in connection with any and all claims, suits and/or actions brought against Manufacturer but only to the extent such suit is based upon a claim of infringement relating to the Contract Specification. Manufacturer shall give SunPower prompt written notice of any such infringement. Manufacturer shall be permitted to retain control over the settlement or resolution of any such claim subject to indemnification under this Section 4.1, including right to settle or to conduct the defense thereof, provided they provide SunPower with complete access to all information regarding such claim, resolution, settlement (real or proposed) or defense. No cost or expense shall be incurred on behalf of Manufacturer without SunPower’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event that the Wafers supplied hereunder by Manufacturer in the form as specified above are found or held to constitute infringement or violation and that their use is enjoined, if and only if this is due to infringement by SunPower’s intellectual property and not in any way due to infringement by Manufacturer’s intellectual property, the Manufacturer may immediately terminate this Agreement (except for the provisions that survive such termination) and the Manufacturer may under this condition only, in addition to any other remedies it may have, retain all monies paid to it by SunPower hereunder. This provision shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. SunPower shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for any settlement made by Manufacturer without SunPower’s written permission or for any costs incurred by Manufacturer that are or were associated with such settlement and/or activities reasonably related to or reasonably leading to such settlement.
Section 4.2 Indemnification by Manufacturer. The Manufacturer, at its own expense, shall defend, indemnify and hold SunPower harmless from and against any and all expenses, costs, losses, liabilities, and/or damages incurred in connection with any and all claim, suits and/or actions brought against SunPower, but only to the extent based on a claim that the manufacturing, assembling, product testing or packaging process employed by Manufacturer infringes or violates any patent, copyright or other intellectual property right of a third party and only to the extent such claim or action: (i) is attributable solely to Manufacturer’s design or manufacturing, assembly, testing processes or, (ii) arises out of, in relation to or in connection with the unauthorized use of SunPower’s Contract Specification or SunPower’s proprietary
4
information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Manufacturer shall not have any liability, and shall not have any defense or indemnification obligations, with respect to any claim or action to the extent arising out of or relating to (i) any portions of the Contract Manufacturing specified by SunPower or (ii) any other materials, designs, or other items provided or specified by SunPower. No cost or expense shall be incurred on behalf of SunPower without the Manufacturer’s written consent. Manufacturer shall indemnify and hold SunPower harmless from and against any cost, damages and fees reasonably incurred by SunPower that are attributable to such claim or action; provided that: (a) SunPower gives Manufacturer reasonably prompt notice in writing of any such claim or action and permits Manufacturer, through counsel of its choice, to defend such claim or action; and (b) SunPower provides Manufacturer with information, assistance and authority, at Manufacturer’s expense, to enable Manufacturer to defend such claim or action. This provision shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Manufacturer shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for any settlement made by SunPower without Manufacturer’s written permission or for any costs incurred by SunPower that are or were associated with such settlement and/or activities reasonably related to or reasonably leading to such settlement.
| 4.2.1 | In the event of an infringement for which Manufacturer has responsibility under this Section 4.2, Manufacturer shall have the right to, as Manufacturer’s sole obligation and SunPower’s sole remedy on a going forward basis, to: |
| 4.2.1.1 | procure for SunPower from the person(s) claiming infringement the right to use, distribute and sell the Wafer; |
| 4.2.1.2 | modify the allegedly infringing item to make it non-infringing, or substitute the allegedly infringing item with a non-infringing one, provided that the functionality or performance of the modified or substituted item remains substantially the same and in any event meets SunPower’s reasonable satisfaction; or |
| 4.2.1.3 | if the foregoing are not commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and refund any monies paid by SunPower to Manufacturer for Wafers not yet delivered. |
This Section 4.2.1 states Manufacturer’s and SunPower’s entire liability and obligation with respect to intellectual property infringement or claims therefor and is expressly subject to Article VII (Limitation of Liabilities).
Section 4.3 Procedures. Disputes, controversies and claims hereunder shall be subject to the terms of Section 3.3 of the Separation Agreement and Section 1.5, Section 1.6 and Article II of the Indemnification and Insurance Matters Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the Separation Agreement.
