Defense Sample Clauses

Defense. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense and except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any Proceeding, the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any Expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ legal counsel in such Proceeding, but all Expenses related thereto incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s expense unless: (i) the employment of legal counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may be a conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Proceeding, (iii) after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been approved by the Independent Counsel, or (iv) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of which cases all Expenses of the Proceeding shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have made the determination provided for in (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.

Defense. Grantee may have control of the defense and settlement of any Claim subject to this Section. But neither Grantee nor any attorney engaged by Grantee may defend the Claim in the name of the State of Oregon, nor purport to act as legal representative of the State of Oregon or any of its agencies, without first receiving from the Attorney General, in a form and manner determined appropriate by the Attorney General, authority to act as legal counsel for the State of Oregon. Nor may Grantee settle any Claim on behalf of the State of Oregon without the approval of the Attorney General. The State of Oregon may, at its election and expense, assume its own defense and settlement in the event the State of Oregon determines Grantee is prohibited from defending the State of Oregon, or is not adequately defending the State of Oregon’s interests, or an important governmental principle is at issue and the State of Oregon desires to assume its own defense. Grantee may not use any Grant Funds to reimburse itself for the defense of or settlement of any Claim.
Defense. If any claim or liability (a “Third-Party Claim”) should be asserted against any of the Seller Indemnified Parties (the “Indemnitees”) by a third party after the Closing for which Buyer has an indemnification obligation under the terms of Section 12.1, then the Indemnitee shall notify Buyer (the “Indemnitor”) within 20 days after the Third-Party Claim is asserted by a third party (said notification being referred to as a “Claim Notice”) and give the Indemnitor a reasonable opportunity to take part in any examination of the books and records of the Indemnitee relating to such Third-Party Claim and to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, in connection therewith, to conduct any proceedings or negotiations relating thereto and necessary or appropriate to defend the Indemnitee and/or settle the Third-Party Claim. The expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of all negotiations, proceedings, contests, lawsuits or settlements with respect to any Third-Party Claim shall be borne by the Indemnitor. If the Indemnitor agrees to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim in writing within 20 days after the Claim Notice of such Third-Party Claim has been delivered, through counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee, then the Indemnitor shall be entitled to control the conduct of such defense, and any decision to settle such Third-Party Claim, and shall be responsible for any expenses of the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim so long as the Indemnitor continues such defense until the final resolution of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitor shall be responsible for paying all settlements made or judgments entered with respect to any Third-Party Claim the defense of which has been assumed by the Indemnitor. Except as provided in subsection (b) below, both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee must approve any settlement of a Third-Party Claim. A failure by the Indemnitee to timely give the Claim Notice shall not excuse Indemnitor from any indemnification liability except only to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure.
Defense. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim or legal proceeding by a person who is not a party to the Agreement, the Indemnifying Party at its sole cost and expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding within thirty (30) days after written notice of the claim is received subject to a reservation of rights to contest its indemnity obligation and obtain reimbursement from Indemnified Party for its costs and expenses in defending and settling same. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its counsel and at its own expense; provided, however, that if there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to diligently defend the claim after receiving notice from the Indemnified Party that it believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to do so, the Indemnified Party may assume the defense of such claim; provided, further, that the Indemnified Party may not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of the claim, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsels retained by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such claim, with its counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party thereafter seeks to question the manner in which the Indemnified Party defended such third-party claim or the amount or nature of any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the burden to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the Indemnified Party did not defend or settle such third-party claim in a reasonably prudent manner. The parties agree to render, without compensation but with reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs, to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any action, suit or proceeding, whether or not subject to indemnification hereunder.
Defense. Upon demand by any Indemnified Party, Xxxxxxxx will defend any investigation, action or proceeding involving any Indemnified Costs that is brought against any Indemnified Party, whether alone or together with Borrower or any other person or entity, all at Borrower’s own cost and by counsel to be approved by the Indemnified Party. In connection therewith, Xxxxxxxx will pay for the cost and expense of any counsel hired or engaged by an Indemnified Party to protect its interest and/or to oversee any defense of the Indemnified Party by Xxxxxxxx and its counsel. Each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and participate in the investigation and defense thereof, and Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party may only employ separate counsel at the expense of Borrower if in the judgment of such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest exists or could arise by reason of common representation or if all parties commonly represented do not agree as to the action (or inaction) of counsel. Xxxxxxxx will not settle or compromise a claim asserted against an Indemnified Party without the approval of that Indemnified Party. In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party with respect to which indemnity may be sought hereunder, Xxxxxxxx, upon written notice from the Indemnified Party, shall assume the investigation and defense thereof, including the employment of counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all expenses related thereto, with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same in its sole discretion; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to review and approve or disapprove any such compromise or settlement.
Defense. If any such Claims are made, the Indemnitee shall be defended at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense by counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided that the Indemnitee may, at its own expense, also be represented by counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to control the defense of any such Claim, subject to the terms of this ARTICLE 12.
Defense. The indemnitee, promptly upon knowledge of such claim, shall notify the indemnitor in writing of any claim to which any indemnity hereunder applies, giving reasonable details of such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnitee’s failure to so notify the indemnitor shall not preclude it from seeking indemnification hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the indemnitor’s ability to defend such claim as provided herein (in which event the indemnitee’s right to indemnity will be reduced equitably to reflect such material prejudice). The indemnitor may, at its option and its cost, assume the defense of any claim or litigation to which this indemnity applies, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnitee. The indemnitee shall cooperate in such defense in all reasonable respects at the sole cost and expense of the indemnitor. Such action by the indemnitor shall not preclude the indemnitee from continuing the defense of its own interests at its sole cost and expense. The indemnitor will not enter into any settlement of a claim that involves a remedy other than the payment of money by the indemnitor, or agree to any action that would bind the indemnitee or compromise indemnitee’s rights in any way, without the indemnitee’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the indemnitor does not assume the defense of a claim subject to this Section 6.3, indemnitor may participate in such defense, at its expense, on a monitoring, non-controlling basis, and the indemnitee shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle the claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the indemnitor’s expense.
