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 (collectively, 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. If the facts pertaining to a Loss arise out of the claim of ------- any third party, or if there is any claim against a third party available by virtue of the circumstances of the Loss, the Indemnity Obligor may, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days following its receipt of the notice of such claim, elect to assume the defense or the prosecution of such claim, including the employment of counsel or accountants at its cost and expense; provided, however, that during the interim the Indemnified Party shall use its best efforts to take all action (not including settlement) reasonably necessary to protect against further damage or loss with respect to the Loss; provided that such counsel or accountants shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnity Obligor agrees prior to assuming such defense or prosecution of the claim that it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the loss suffered by the Indemnified Party as a result of such claim; provided that the Indemnity Obligor can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnified Party that such Indemnity Obligor has the financial ability to satisfy such indemnity obligation; and provided that any compromise or settlement must be reasonably approved by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a claim may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnity Obligor, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such claim, but the Indemnity Obligor will not be bound by any determination of a claim so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnity Obligor in any such action and to participate in such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnified Party's own expense. Whether or not the Indemnity Obligor chooses so to defend or prosecute such claim, all the parties to this Agreement shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such claim and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and shall attend such conferences, discovery proceedings and ...
Defense. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Indemnifying Party may elect to pay, compromise or defend (with the expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith for its own account) by such Indemnifying Party's own counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party), any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, it shall, within 30 days after receiving notice of the Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate, with the expense of the Indemnified Party being part of the Loss for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in the compromise of, or defense against, such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend against the Third Party Claim, or fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election to do so as herein provided, or otherwise abandons the defense of such Third Party Claim, (i) the Indemnified Party may pay (without prejudice of any of its rights as against the Indemnifying Party), compromise or defend such Third Party Claim (until such defense is assumed by the Indemnifying Party) and (ii) the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party incurred in connection therewith shall be indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. However, if within 30 days of receiving a notification from the Indemnifying Party that the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnifying Party that the Indemnified Party is electing to pay, compromise or defend the claim or notifies the Indemnifying Party that it does not elect to pay, compromise or defend the claim, then the Indemnifying Party may elect to pay, compromise or defend the claim by such Indemnifying Party's own counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party), with the expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party for the account of the Indemnified Party but part of the Loss for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the term by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim over the objection of the other; provided, however, that (i) consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreason...
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.
Defense. Each Party will assume its own proper responsibility in connection with any claims made by a third party against Client and/or Agency. Agency is an independent contractor and is solely responsible for the employment, acts and omissions, control and direction of its employees and agents. If the acts of the employees or agents of Agency are the proximate cause of any action brought against Client, Agency will assume full responsibility for the defense of said action and payment of any resulting judgment. If the acts of Client or employees etc. are the proximate cause of any action brought against Agency by third party, then Client will assume full responsibility for the defense of said action and payment of any judgment. The Party providing indemnification has sole discretion in its choice of counsel and may direct the litigation at its discretion.
Defense. The Debtor will at its own expense and using commercially reasonable efforts, protect and defend the Patents and Trademarks against all claims or demands of all Persons other than those holding Permitted Liens.
Defense. (i) We will defend you against any claims made by an unaffiliated third party that a Product infringes that third party’s patent, copyright or trademark or makes unlawful use of its trade secret.
