10.6 Third Party Claims. If the indemnification sought pursuant hereto involves a claim made by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation. Should the Indemnifying Party be permitted and so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless and to the extent that a conflict arises between the interests of the Parties.

If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to consent to any such settlement, compromise or discharge that (x) would materially adversely affect the rights granted to the Indemnified Party hereunder, (y) would materially conflict with the terms of this Agreement or (z) would materially adversely affect the Products outside the Territory. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party will have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

If any Party is prevented from complying, either totally or in part, with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, by reason of force majeure, including, but not limited to fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, storm, strike, lockout or other labor trouble, riot, war, rebellion, accidents, acts of God and/or any other cause or externally induced casualty beyond its reasonable control, whether similar to the foregoing matters or not, then, upon written notice by the Party liable to perform to the other Party, the requirements of this Agreement or such of its provisions as may be affected, and to the extent so affected, shall be suspended during the period of such disability; provided that the Party asserting force majeure shall bear the burden of establishing the existence of such force majeure by clear and convincing evidence; and provided further, that the Party prevented from complying shall use its best efforts to remove such disability within thirty (30) days, and shall continue performance with the utmost dispatch whenever such causes are removed, and shall notify the other Party of the force majeure event not more than five (5) working days from the time of the event. When such circumstances arise, the Parties shall discuss what, if any, modification of the terms of this Agreement may be required in order to arrive at an equitable solution.
13.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13.3 Headings. Section headings are inserted for convenience of reference only and do not form a part of this Agreement, and no construction or inference shall be derived from them.
13.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
13.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto, together with the Trademark License, Assignment and Assumption Agreement and the Supply Agreement, set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties regarding the subject matter.
13.6 Amendment; Waiver, Etc. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded or canceled, and any of its terms may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by both Parties or, in the case of waiver, by the Party or Parties waiving compliance. The delay or failure of any Party at any time or times to require performance of any provision shall in no manner affect the rights of such Party at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by any Party of any condition or of the breach of any term contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such breach or the breach of any other term of this Agreement.

13.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. No person or entity not a Party to this Agreement, including any employee of any Party to this Agreement, shall have or acquire any rights by reason of this Agreement, nor shall either Party have any obligations or liabilities to such other person or entity by reason of this Agreement.
13.8 Assignment and Successors. This Agreement may not be assigned by either Party to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; except that either Party may assign this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, to any of its Affiliates, to any purchaser of all or substantially all of its assets or to any successor corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation with or into such corporation. In the event of any such assignment, the assignee shall expressly assume in writing the performance of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all of the obligations to be performed by the assignor. Any assignment not in accordance with this Agreement will be void.
13.9 Severability. If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Party or circumstance will, to any extent, be held to be invalid or unenforceable, then (i) the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to Parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, will not be affected thereby and each term, covenant or condition of this Agreement will be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law; and (ii) the Parties hereto covenant and agree to renegotiate any such term, covenant or application thereof in good faith in order to provide a reasonably acceptable alternative to the term, covenant or condition of this Agreement or the application thereof that is invalid or unenforceable, it being the intent of the Parties that the basic purposes of this Agreement are to be effectuated; provided, however, that if a provision is stricken so as to significantly alter the economic arrangements of this Agreement, the Party adversely affected may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the other Party.
13.10 Notices. All notices shall be mailed via certified mail, return receipt requested, by nationally recognized overnight courier or by facsimile transmission (receipt verified), addressed as follows, or to such other addresses as may be designated from time to time by notice given in the manner provided in this Section 13.10:

13.12 Publicity. The Parties will agree upon the contents of a joint press release or a Jazz Pharmaceuticals press release to be made promptly after the Closing Date or, if requested by Jazz Pharmaceuticals, at a later date chosen by Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Except for information in such press release, neither Party will make any public announcement concerning, or otherwise publicly disclose, the existence of this Agreement, any information with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the performance under it or any of the terms and conditions hereof without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may make any public disclosure concerning the transactions contemplated hereby that in the opinion of such Party’s counsel may be required by law or the rules of any stock exchange on which such Party’s or its Affiliates’ securities trade; provided, however, the Party making such disclosure will provide the non-disclosing Party with a copy of the intended disclosure reasonably, and to the extent practicable, prior to public dissemination, and the Parties hereto will coordinate with one another regarding the timing, form and content of such disclosure.
13.13 Consent/Approval. Whenever provision is made in this Agreement for either Party to secure the consent or approval of the other, that consent or approval will not unreasonably be withheld, and whenever in this Agreement provision is made for one Party to object to or disapprove a matter, such objection or disapproval will not unreasonably be exercised.
13.14 Independent Contractors. Nothing herein will be construed to create any relationship of employer and employee, agent and principal, partnership or joint venture between the Parties.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Party assumes or will assume, either directly or indirectly, any liability or obligations of or for the other Party, whether past, present or future. Neither Party will have the authority to bind or obligate the other Party and neither Party will represent that it has such authority.
13.15 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such Party may be entitled.
13.16 Specific Performance. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the Parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.
