fees) (each, a "Loss"
and collectively, the "Losses")
sustained, suffered or incurred by such ULURU Indemnified Parties
and
relating to, directly or indirectly: (a) the breach of any representation
or warranty of Access contained herein (without regard to materiality
qualifiers provided in such representations or warranties other than
the
references to Material Adverse Effect) (other than any breach in
existence
or caused by events or facts of which ULURU or Xxxxx Xxxx has knowledge);
(b) the breach of any covenant or agreement of Access contained herein;
or
(c) any claim or cause of action arising from the Retained Liabilities,
except that Access shall have no obligation to indemnify ULURU for

(except as set forth in Section 4.2).

shall indemnify and hold Access, its Affiliates and their respective
employees, officers and directors (collectively, the "Access
Indemnified Parties")
harmless from and against any and all Losses sustained, suffered
or
incurred by such Access Indemnified Parties and relating to, directly

contained herein, (without regard to materiality qualifiers provided
in

or
agreement of ULURU contained herein; (c) any Losses that arise from
or
relate to the Takeda License Agreement or the performance or
non-performance of such agreement; or (d) any claim or cause of action

|
9.3 Notification
of Claims.
(a) |
If
any Access Indemnified Party or ULURU Indemnified Party receives
notice of
any event, circumstance, demand or claim that may give rise to a
Loss for
which such Party is or may be entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement (each such party, an "Indemnified
Party"),
such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Party required to
provide
such indemnification (the "Indemnifying
Party")
in writing of the existence of such potential Loss and of the amount
at
issue. The failure to provide such notice will not affect any rights
hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced thereby.
|
(b) |
If
the event or circumstance giving rise to a Loss involves any third
party
claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to direct, through
counsel of its own choosing, which counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, the defense or settlement
of any
claim or proceeding the subject of indemnification hereunder at its
own
expense. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of
any
such claim or proceeding, the Indemnified Party may participate in
such
defense, but in such case the expenses of the Indemnified Party shall
be
paid by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall provide
the
Indemnifying Party with access to its records and personnel relating
to
any such claim, assertion, event or proceeding during normal business
hours and shall otherwise cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in
the
defense or settlement thereof, and the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse
the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
in
connection therewith. If the Indemnifying Party elects to direct
the
defense of any such claim or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall
not
pay, or permit to be paid, any part of any claim or demand arising
from
such asserted loss unless the Indemnifying Party consents in writing
to
such payment or unless the Indemnifying Party withdraws from the
defense
of such asserted loss or unless a final judgment from which no appeal
may
be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party is entered against
the
Indemnified Party for such loss. No settlement in respect of any
third
party claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the
Indemnified Party's prior written consent, unless the settlement
involves
a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party. If the
Indemnifying Party shall fail to undertake in a timely manner the
defense
of any third party claim or it is reasonably determined by outside
counsel
mutually selected by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party
that
representation by the Indemnifying Party's counsel of both the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party may present a conflict
of
interest, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake
the
defense or settlement thereof at the Indemnifying Party's expense.
If the
Indemnified Party assumes the defense of any such claim or proceeding
pursuant to this Section 9.3 and proposes to settle such claim or
proceeding prior to a final judgment thereon or to forgo any appeal
with
respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying
Party timely written notice and the Indemnifying Party shall have
the
right to participate in the settlement or assume or reassume the
defense
of such claim or proceeding.

the
Parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing
herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any
person
or entity, any legal or equitable
rights, benefits or remedies.
|
14.9 |
Assignment.
Neither
Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without
the prior written consent of the other Party and any purported assignment
in violation hereof shall be null and void; provided,
however,
that either Party may assign its rights and obligations under this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party,
to an
Affiliate or to a successor of the assigning Party's business by
reason of
merger, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any similar
transaction, provided
that such successor agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, in the case of any such event involving
ULURU, ULURU's payment obligations under Section 3). Such consent
shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any permitted assignee shall
assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, in the case of an assignment by ULURU, ULURU's
payment
obligations under Section 3). No assignment shall relieve either
Party of
its responsibility for the performance of any obligation that accrued
prior to the effective date of such assignment hereunder. ULURU agrees
that in connection with any merger or sale of all or substantially
all of
the assets of ULURU such transaction shall not be consummated unless
and
until the other party(ies) to such transaction agree in writing to
assume
all of the obligations of ULURU under this Agreement and each agreement
contemplated hereby.
|
14.10 |
Severability.
If
any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal
or
incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other
terms
and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full
force
and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse
to
any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision
is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto
shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect
the
original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable
manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated
as originally contemplated to the greatest extent
possible.
|
14.11 |
WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL.
EACH
OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL
BY JURY
IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE
ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS, INSTRUMENTS AND DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY
OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
|
14.12 |
No
Waiver of Remedies.
No
delay on the part of ULURU or Access in exercising any right, power
or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any
waiver on the part of either ULURU or Access of any right, power
or
privilege hereunder nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right,
power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.
The waiver of any terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not
be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver
of
the same term or condition, or waiver of any other term or condition,
of
this Agreement. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights
hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights.
