(b)    Licensor shall enforce and protect the Licensed Intellectual Property against Third Party Infringement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 7.2(b). Upon becoming aware of any Third Party Infringement in or which could be

reasonably expected to affect the Licensed Fields, Licensor shall promptly provide to Licensee all available information regarding such Third Party Infringement and discuss in good faith with Licensee an appropriate course of action with respect to such Third Party Infringement and take all actions deemed necessary by Licensor with respect to such Third Party Infringement, which may include bringing a claim against the applicable Third Party.

The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Liabilities to the extent caused by or on behalf of Licensor, or to the extent arising out of or related to Licensor’s indemnity set forth in Section 8.2.

Section 8.2     Licensor Indemnification Obligations . Licensor agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Licensee, its Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (the “ Licensee Indemnified Parties ”) harmless from and against any and all Liabilities suffered or incurred by a Licensee Indemnified Party as a result of Third Party Claims arising from (a) Licensor’s Exploitation of the Licensed Intellectual Property, including death, injury to persons or damages to property, product liability, tort liability or any other suits, claims demands, proceedings or actions, and (b) a breach of, or failure to satisfy, any covenant, representation, warranty or obligation of Licensor under this Agreement.

Section 8.3     Indemnification Procedures .

(a)    Any Licensor Indemnified Party or Licensee Indemnified Party that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (an “ Indemnified Party ”) shall promptly notify Licensee or Licensor, as the case may be (the “ Indemnifying Party ”), in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined, has given, or would reasonably be expected to give rise to, a right of indemnification under this Agreement (a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a Third Party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “ Third Party Claim ”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Section 8.3, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure.

(b)    Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.3(a), the Indemnifying Party will assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim but shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and representatives to, cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement, (ii) not encumber any of the material assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to or materially adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business, and (iii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party

Claim. In all other circumstances, neither an Indemnifying Party nor an Indemnified Party shall settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c)    In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim promptly to the Indemnifying Party, describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim (if known) and such other necessary information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond in writing within 30 days of receipt of such notice. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters and providing legal and business assistance with respect to such matters. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
