• Defense of Infringement Claims In the event Licensee or Licensor becomes aware that Licensee’s or any of its Affiliates’ or any Sublicensees’ practice of the Licensed Patents is the subject of a claim for patent infringement by a Third Party, that Party shall promptly notify the other, and the Parties shall consider the claim and the most appropriate action to take. Licensee shall cause each of its Affiliates and each Sublicensee to notify Licensee promptly in the event such entity becomes aware that its practice of the Licensed Patents is the subject of a claim of patent infringement by another. To the extent Licensor takes any action, Licensor (or the ReGenX Licensors) shall have the right to require Licensee’s reasonable cooperation in any such suit, upon written notice to Licensee; and Licensee shall have the obligation to participate upon Licensor’s request, in which event, Licensor shall bear the cost of Licensee’s participation. Without Licensor’s prior written permission, Licensee must not settle or compromise any such suit in a manner that imposes any material obligations or restrictions on Licensor or the ReGenX Licensors or grants any rights to the Licensed Patents other than rights that Licensee has the right to grant under this Agreement.

• Infringement and Defense of Licensee SAP shall defend Licensee against claims brought against Licensee in the Territory by any third party alleging that Licensee's Use of the Software, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, constitutes a direct infringement or misappropriation of such third party’s patent claim(s), copyright or trade secret rights, and SAP will pay damages finally awarded against Licensee (or the amount of any settlement SAP enters into) with respect to such claims. This obligation of SAP shall not apply if the alleged infringement or misappropriation results from (i) Use of the Software in conjunction with any other software; (ii) Use of the Software with an apparatus other than a Designated Unit; (iii) failure to promptly use an update provided by SAP if such infringement or misappropriation could have been avoided by use of the update; or (iv) any Use not permitted by this Agreement. This obligation of SAP also shall not apply if Licensee fails to timely notify SAP in writing of any such claim; however Licensee’s failure to provide or delay in providing such notice shall not relieve SAP of its obligations under this Section except to the extent SAP is prejudiced by Licensee’s failure to provide or delay in providing such notice. SAP is permitted to control fully the defense and any settlement of any such claim as long as such settlement shall not include a financial obligation on or admission of liability by Licensee. In the event Licensee declines SAP’s proffered defense, or otherwise fails to give full control of the defense to SAP’s designated counsel, then Licensee waives SAP’s obligations under this Section 8.1. Licensee shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of such claim and may appear, at its own expense, through counsel reasonably acceptable to SAP. SAP expressly reserves the right to cease such defense of any claim(s) in the event the Software is no longer alleged to infringe or misappropriate, or is held not to infringe or misappropriate, the third party’s rights. SAP may settle or mitigate damages from any claim or potential claim by substituting alternative substantially equivalent non-infringing programs and supporting documentation for the Software. Licensee shall not undertake any action in response to any infringement or misappropriation, or alleged infringement or misappropriation of the Software that is prejudicial to SAP’s rights.

• Enforcement and Defense (a) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any infringement or possible infringement by a third party of any rights licensed to Agensys under this Agreement. Further, Ambrx shall give Agensys, and Agensys shall give Ambrx, notice of any infringement of (i) any Ambrx Patent Rights claiming any Ambrx Collaboration Information and Invention or any Joint Collaboration Information and Invention for which Ambrx is the filing party pursuant to Section 7.1, or any misappropriation or misuse of Ambrx Collaboration Information and Inventions, that may come to Ambrx’s or Agensys’ attention. Agensys and Ambrx shall thereafter consult and cooperate fully to determine a course of action, including but not limited to, the commencement of legal action by either or both Agensys and Ambrx, to terminate any infringement of such Ambrx Patent Rights or any misappropriation or misuse of such Ambrx Collaboration Information and Invention, as applicable. However, Ambrx, upon notice to Agensys, shall have the first right to initiate and prosecute such legal action at its own expense and in the name of Ambrx, or to control the defense of any declaratory judgment action relating to such Ambrx Patent Rights or such Ambrx Collaboration Information and Inventions, as applicable, and Agensys, upon notice to Ambrx, shall have the first right to initiate and prosecute such legal action at its own expense and in the name of Agensys, or to control the defense of any declaratory judgment action relating to such Ambrx Patent Rights or such Ambrx Collaboration Information and Inventions, as applicable. To the extent permissible by Applicable Law, the non-controlling Party shall have the right to join and participate in such action. Each Party shall promptly inform the other Party if it elects not to exercise such first right and the other Party shall thereafter have the right to either initiate and prosecute such action or to control the defense of such declaratory judgment action in its name and, if necessary, the name of the first Party. Each Party shall have the right to be represented by counsel of its own choice.

• Notice and Defense of Third Party Claims Promptly following the earlier of (a) receipt of notice of the commencement by a third party of any Action against or otherwise involving any Indemnified Party or (b) receipt of information from a third party alleging the existence of a claim against an Indemnified Party, in either case, with respect to which indemnification may be sought pursuant to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Section 6.07 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall, by giving written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, (a) acknowledge, as between the parties hereto, liability for, and at its option elect to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense or (b) object to the claim of indemnification set forth in the notice delivered by the Indemnified Party pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.07 setting forth the grounds therefor; provided that if the Indemnifying Party does not within the same thirty (30) day period give the Indemnified Party written notice acknowledging liability or objecting to such claim and setting forth the grounds therefor, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged, as between the parties hereto, its liability to the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim. Any contest of a Third Party Claim as to which the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense shall be conducted by attorneys employed by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise the claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if such settlement or compromise is solely for monetary damages for which the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for; in all other events, the Indemnifying Party may not agree to any settlement or compromise without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim for which it has acknowledged liability for indemnification under Article VI, the Indemnified Party may require the Indemnifying Party to reimburse it on a current basis for its reasonable expenses of investigation, reasonable attorney’s fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in defending against such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party in cash the amount for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified (if any) within 15 days after the final resolution of such Third Party Claim (whether by the final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise), or, in the case of any Third Party Claim as to which the Indemnifying Party has not acknowledged liability, within 15 days after such Indemnifying Party’s objection has been resolved by settlement, compromise or the final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

• Defense of Third Party Claims Upon receipt by the Indemnifying Party of a notice from the Indemnified Party with respect to any claim of a third party against the Indemnified Party, for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend all such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith. If the Indemnifying Party shall elect to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any claim against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle any claim for which indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder; provided that, to the extent that such settlement requires the Indemnified Party to take, or prohibits the Indemnified Party from taking, any action or purports to obligate the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a third party claim and disputes the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of such claim through counsel of its choice, the reasonable costs of which shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s expense in the event that the Indemnified Party’s right of indemnification is ultimately established through settlement, compromise or other legal proceeding. In no circumstance may the Indemnified Party compromise or settle a claim with a third party for which it seeks indemnification from the Indemnifying Party without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

• Notification and Defense of Claims The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Indemnitor in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information, or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder, but the failure so to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability that the Indemnitor may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement unless the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced thereby. With respect to any such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitor of the commencement thereof:

• Infringement Remedies If, in either party’s opinion, any piece of equipment, software, commodity, or service supplied by Contractor or its subcontractors, or its operation, use or reproduction, is likely to become the subject of a copyright, patent, trademark, or trade secret infringement claim, Contractor must, at its expense: (a) procure for the State the right to continue using the equipment, software, commodity, or service, or if this option is not reasonably available to Contractor, (b) replace or modify the same so that it becomes non-infringing; or (c) accept its return by the State with appropriate credits to the State against Contractor’s charges and reimburse the State for any losses or costs incurred as a consequence of the State ceasing its use and returning it.
