Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
Right to Conduct Activities (a) The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that Maverick Advisors Fund, L.P. and Maverick Ventures Investment Fund, L.P. (together with its affiliates, “Maverick”) are professional investment funds, and as such invest in numerous portfolio companies, some of which may be deemed competitive with the Company’s business (as currently conducted or as currently propose to be conducted). The Company hereby agrees that, to the extent permitted under applicable law, Maverick shall not be liable to the Company for any claim arising out of, or based upon, (i) the investment by Maverick in any entity competitive with the Company or (ii) actions taken by any partner, officer or other representative of Maverick to assist any such competitive company, whether or not such action was taken as a member of the board of directors of such competitive company or otherwise, and whether or not such action has a detrimental effect on the Company; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve (x) any of the Investors from liability associated with the unauthorized disclosure of the Company’s confidential information obtained pursuant to this Agreement or (y) any director or officer of the Company from any liability associated with his or her fiduciary duties to the Company.
Other Activities/Renovations A. The Contractor acknowledges its responsibility to assure the Judicial Council’s quiet enjoyment of the Program and to provide the full service level of the Property for the Program, free from outside distractions, disturbances, and/or interruptions. The Contractor shall avoid assigning any rooms to the Judicial Council or the Attendees during the Program which are adjacent to or across from any group or activity that may generate noise or other distractions, such as construction or other conduct, sufficient to detract from quiet enjoyment of the Program on the Property.
Conduct of Claims 31.6.1 The Indemnifying Party may at its own expense and with the assistance and co-operation of the Indemnified Party have the conduct of the Third Party Claim including its settlement and the Indemnified Party will not, unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to resolve the Third Party Claim within a reasonable period (and the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party in writing that it is of the opinion that such reasonable period has expired), take any action to settle or pursue the Third Party Claim
Conduct of Research The Parties shall use Diligent Efforts to conduct their respective tasks, as assigned under the Research Plan, throughout the Mode of Action Program and shall conduct the Mode of Action Program in good scientific manner, and in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of applicable laws, rules and regulations and all applicable good laboratory practices to attempt to achieve their objectives efficiently and expeditiously.

Conduct of Proceedings If any claim or proceeding covered by the foregoing agreements to indemnify and hold harmless shall arise, the party who seeks indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notice thereof to the other party (the "Indemnitor") promptly after the Indemnified Party learns of the existence of such claim or proceeding; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party's failure to give the Indemnitor prompt notice shall not bar the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification unless such failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnitor's ability to defend the claim or proceeding. The Indemnitor shall have the right to employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to defend against any such claim or proceeding, or to compromise, settle or otherwise dispose of the same, if the Indemnitor deems it advisable to do so, all at the expense of the Indemnitor; provided that the Indemnitor shall not have the right to control the defense of any such claim or proceeding unless it has acknowledged in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party fully from all liabilities incurred as a result of such claim or proceeding and then and periodically thereafter provides the Indemnified Party with reasonably sufficient evidence of the ability of the Indemnitor to satisfy any such liabilities. The parties will fully cooperate in any such action, and shall make available to each other any books or records useful for the defense of any such claim or proceeding. If the Indemnitor fails to acknowledge in writing its obligation to defend against or settle such claim or proceeding within twenty (20) days after receiving notice thereof from the Indemnified Party (or such shorter time specified in the notice as the circumstances of the matter may dictate), the Indemnified Party shall be free to dispose of the matter, at the expense of the Indemnitor, in any way in which the Indemnified Party deems to be in its best interest.
