In the event Cellegy elects not to enforce the Patent Rights relating to the Licensed Product within sixty (60) days after notice of the possible infringement or dilution, and Licensee can demonstrate that the potential infringement or dilution is reasonably likely to result in material lost sales of the Licensed Product within the applicable country, then Licensee may institute a lawsuit or other such actions at its expense to prevent continuation of such potential infringement or dilution, and then Licensee will retain all award, damages or compensation obtained by Licensee in such suit. Cellegy will provide reasonable cooperation with respect to any lawsuit which Licensee may bring pursuant to this Article, subject to reimbursement of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys fees in connection therewith.

(ii)    the importation, storage, Development, promotion, marketing, distribution or sale of the Licensed Product based on action or inaction of Cellegy;

22

(v)    any claim by a Third Party against Cellegy or Licensee that entering into this Agreement is a material breach of, or is prohibited by, any agreement between Cellegy and such Third Party.

   (b)    Any indemnification by, Cellegy pursuant to a claim made under this Section shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i)    no indemnification shall be payable unless the aggregate of all Losses for which Cellegy would be liable exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $50,000, and then in such circumstances Licensee shall be entitled to demand an indemnity for the total aggregate of all Losses;
 
(ii)    no indemnification shall be payable for any individual items (or series of related individual items) where the Loss relating thereto is less than $10,000, in which case such items shall not be aggregated;
 
(iii)    no indemnification shall be payable in excess of an aggregate amount equal to the sum of $2,000,000 and any additional payments made under Section 8.2; and
 
(iv)    no indemnification shall be payable to the extent the liability or obligation is directly caused by any action taken or omitted to be taken by Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees.

(i)    the importation, storage, Development, promotion, marketing, distribution, or sale, of the Licensed Product based on action or inaction of Licensee, Affiliates, Sublicensees or their respective directors, officers and employees (Licensee and such other Persons sometimes referred to as “Licensee Indemnified Persons”);

(ii)    any Product Liability claim based on action or inaction of any Licensee Indemnified Person;

(iii)     any breach by any Licensee Indemnified Person of any representation or warranty given in this Agreement; any negligence or willful default of any Licensee Indemnified Person relating to the Licensed Product or this Agreement; or

23

 
(iv)    any material breach by Licensee of any representation or warranty given in this Agreement.
 
(d)     In order for a party (the "Indemnified Party") to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a "Third Party Claim"), such Indemnified Party must notify the indemnifying party (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing (and in reasonable detail) of the Third Party Claim within 15 days after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnified Party failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within ten days after the Indemnified Party's receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(e)    Subject to the provisions of Section 14.1 and 14.2, if a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above). If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all the indemnified parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party's request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party's prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim, which releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim and that would not otherwise materially adversely affect the Indemnified Party.

24

 
(f)    Other Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved as provided in Section 18.14.
