(i) arising out of or related in any way to any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by MCEL in this Agreement;

(ii) arising out of or related in any way to any breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by MCEL pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii) arising out of or related in any way to the infringement by MCEL (including without limitation through use by MCEL or its licensees of the MCEL-Contributed Intellectual Property or the JDA Intellectual Property) of the intellectual property rights of a third party; or

(iv) arising out of violations by MCEL of applicable law.

14.3. Indemnification by Dow. Dow hereby indemnifies MCEL and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents against, and agrees to hold each of them harmless from, any and all claims, demands, costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities, damages, recoveries and deficiencies, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, court costs, costs and expenses (including attorney fees) (the “Damages”) incurred or suffered by any of them:

14.4. Indemnification Procedures.

(a) If any of Dow or any of their directors, officers, employees and agents, seek indemnification pursuant to Section 14.2, or MCEL or any of their Affiliates or any of their directors, officers, employees and agents, seek indemnification pursuant to Section 14.3, the Person seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly (and in any event within 30 days) after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification (an “Indemnified Claim”) specifying in reasonable detail the factual basis of the Indemnified Claim, stating the amount of the Damages, if known, the method of computation thereof, containing a reference to the provision of this Agreement in respect of which such Indemnified Claim arises and demanding indemnification therefor. The failure of an Indemnified Party to provide notice in accordance with this Section 14.4 shall not constitute a waiver of that party’s claims to indemnification pursuant to Section 14.2 or Section 14.3, as applicable, except to the extent that any such failure or delay in giving notice causes the amounts paid by the Indemnifying Party to be greater than they otherwise would have been or otherwise results in prejudice to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Claim arises from the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding brought by a Person that is not a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”), any such notice to the Indemnifying Party shall be accompanied by a copy of any papers theretofore served on or delivered to the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim.

(b) Upon receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 14.4(a), the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim subject to the provisions of this Section 14.4. After written notice by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal fees or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14.4 to the contrary, if the Indemnifying Party does not assume defense and control of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 14.4, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend such Third Party Claim, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 14.4, in such manner as it may deem appropriate. Whether the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party is defending and controlling any such Third Party Claim, they shall select counsel, contractors, experts and consultants of recognized standing and competence, shall take all steps necessary in the investigation, defense or settlement thereof, and shall at all times diligently and promptly pursue the resolution thereof. The party conducting the defense thereof shall at all times act as if all Damages relating to the Third Party Claim were for its own account and shall act in good faith and with reasonable prudence to minimize Damages therefrom. The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents to, cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in connection with any Third Party Claim.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claims, and the Indemnified Party shall consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claims; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall (1) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness thereof; (2) shall not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to such Indemnified Party or to the conduct of that party’s business; and (3) shall obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete and irrevocable release of each Indemnified Party and such settlement or judgment (x) shall not require any admission of liability, fault or wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party or impose any non-monetary obligation on an Indemnified Party (such as, by way of example, and not in limitation, injunctive relief) and (y) shall not require any admission or statement that could reasonably be expected to materially impair, disparage or otherwise adversely affect, the business reputation of the Indemnified Party. Except to the extent of the foregoing, no settlement or entry of judgment in respect of any Third Party Claim shall be consented to by any Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party without the express written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) If an Indemnifying Party makes any payment on an Indemnified Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims or benefits of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim.

14.5. Limitation. DOW SHALL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE TO MCEL FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS) RESULTING FROM OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR ARISING OUT OF OR ALLEGED TO HAVE ARISEN OUT OF A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS LIMITATION APPLIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE SOUGHT BASED ON THEORIES OF CONTRACT OR TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14.5 SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, DOW’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO MCEL AND ANY THIRD PERSONS FOR ALL DAMAGES AND LOSSES, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE JOINT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE SHALL BE LIMITED TO ONE MILLION U.S. $250,000.

14.6. Exclusion of Warranties. THE DOW-LICENSED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IS PROVIDED TO MCEL “AS IS,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN LAW OR IN FACT, ORAL OR IN WRITING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTEE OR REPRESENTATION OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OR THE LIKE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY DOW OR ITS EMPLOYEES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTEE OR REPRESENTATION, OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THIS WARRANTY, AND MCEL SHALL NOT RELY ON ANY SUCH INFORMATION OR ADVICE.

14.7. Exclusion of Warranties. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE MCEL-CONTRIBUTED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND JDA INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IS PROVIDED TO DOW WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN LAW OR IN FACT, ORAL OR IN WRITING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTEE OR REPRESENTATION OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR THE LIKE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY MCEL OR ITS EMPLOYEES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY, CONDITION, GUARANTEE OR REPRESENTATION, OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THIS WARRANTY, AND DOW SHALL NOT RELY ON ANY SUCH INFORMATION OR ADVICE.

14.8. Third Parties. Neither Licensee Party shall provide any third party with any warranty on behalf of Licensor Party, and each Licensee Party shall include the Licensor Party exclusions and limitations set forth in this Section 14 in any agreement with any third party regarding the Licensed Intellectual Property.

(b) A Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to Dow.
