If an IP Indemnified Claim under this Section occurs, or if Qualtrics determines that an Indemnified Claim is likely to occur, Qualtrics shall, at its option and without limiting its obligations under this Section: (i) obtain a right for the SAP Indemnified Parties to continue using such Qualtrics Solutions; (ii) modify such Qualtrics Solutions to make them non-infringing; or (iii) replace such Qualtrics Solutions with a non-infringing equivalent. If (i), (ii) or (iii) above are not reasonably available, either Party may, at its option, cease providing or distributing, as applicable, the infringing Qualtrics Solution, and Qualtrics will refund any pre-paid fees on a pro-rata basis for the allegedly infringing Qualtrics Solutions that have not been provided.

16.Reductions for Insurance Proceeds and other Recoveries.
xviii.The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be reduced (retroactively or prospectively) by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered from third parties by or on behalf of such Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss. The existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for monies from an insurer or against a third party in respect of any indemnifiable Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party. Rather, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment in full of the amount determined to be due and owing by it against an assignment by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the entire claim of the Indemnitee for Insurance Proceeds or against such third party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the Parties that no insurer or any other third party shall be (x) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (y) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated. If an Indemnitee has received the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any indemnifiable Loss and later receives Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in respect of such indemnifiable Loss, then such Indemnitee shall hold such Insurance Proceeds or other
10
amounts in trust for the benefit of the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties) and shall pay to the Indemnifying Party, as promptly as practicable after receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such indemnifiable Loss (or, if there is more than one Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall pay each Indemnifying Party, its proportionate share (based on payments received from the Indemnifying Parties) of such Insurance Proceeds).
xix.The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.2 shall be (x) increased to take account of any net Tax cost incurred by the Indemnitee arising from the receipt or accrual of an indemnification payment hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (y) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit realized by the Indemnitee arising from incurring or paying such loss or other liability. In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Indemnitee shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt or accrual of any indemnification payment hereunder or incurring or paying any indemnified Loss. Any indemnification payment hereunder shall initially be made without regard to this Section 7.2(d) and shall be increased or reduced to reflect any such net Tax cost (including gross-up) or net Tax benefit only after the Indemnitee has actually realized such cost or benefit. For purposes of this Agreement, an Indemnitee shall be deemed to have “actually realized” a net Tax cost or a net Tax benefit to the extent that, and at such time as, the amount of Taxes payable by such Indemnitee is increased above or reduced below, as the case may be, the amount of Taxes that such Indemnitee would be required to pay but for the receipt or accrual of the indemnification payment or the incurrence or payment of such Loss, as the case may be. The amount of any increase or reduction hereunder shall be adjusted to reflect any Final Determination with respect to the Indemnitee’s liability for Taxes, and payments between such indemnified parties to reflect such adjustment shall be made if necessary. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Parties agree that any indemnity payment made hereunder shall be treated as a capital contribution by SAP America to Qualtrics or dividend distribution by Qualtrics to SAP America, as the case may be, immediately prior to the IPO Date and, accordingly, not includible in the taxable income of the recipient or deductible by the payor.
17.Procedures for Defense, Settlement and Indemnification of the Third Party Claims.
xx.If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person who is not an SAP Entity or Qualtrics Entity of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification, SAP and Qualtrics (as applicable) will ensure that such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof within 30 days after becoming aware
11
of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 7.2(e) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this ARTICLE VII, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually and substantially prejudiced by such delay or failure to give notice.
xxi.An Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes, at its cost, risk and expense, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party seeking indemnification. After timely notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee of such election to so assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the party seeking indemnification for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof, except that the Indemnifying Party shall bear the expenses of separate counsel for the Indemnitee if there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim that would make the representation by the same counsel or the counsel selected by Indemnifying Party inappropriate or the Indemnitee would lose any defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnitee agrees to cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense against any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to compromise or settle any Third Party Claim as to which it is providing indemnification; provided, however, that such compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the Indemnitee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
xxii.If an Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of notice of such claim, Indemnitee will, upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party, have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of and for the account of the Indemnifying Party subject to the limitations as set forth in this Section 7.2(e); provided, however, that such Third Party Claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Indemnitee assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, it shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall reimburse all applicable such costs and expenses of the Indemnitee in the event it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim. In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be liable for any settlement effected without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed
