If the Executive Sponsors unanimously agree to accept a Completed Deliverable, then Verily will be deemed to have achieved Development Completion with respect to such Completed Deliverable. If the Executive Sponsors unanimously agree to reject a Completed Deliverable, then the Completed Deliverable shall be referred back to the Technical Leads for review and remediation, and Verily may resubmit such Completed Deliverable using the process set forth in Section 3.9.1.

11.4    Indemnification.
11.4.1     Indemnification by Verily. Verily hereby agrees to defend, hold harmless and indemnify (collectively, “Indemnify”) DexCom and its Affiliates, and its and their agents, directors, officers and employees (the “DexCom Indemnitees”) from and against any liability or expense (including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”), resulting from suits, claims, actions and demands, in each case brought by a Third Party (each, a “Third-Party Claim”) arising out of (a) a breach of any of Verily’s covenants, representations or warranties hereunder, (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct or omission of Verily or its Affiliates under this Agreement, (c) actual or alleged infringement of the intellectual property rights of a Third Party by a Verily Service or deliverable of Verily under the Development Plan (“Verily Deliverable”), except to the extent that such infringement results from a modification, enhancement or improvement made or implemented by DexCom to the Verily Deliverable, or combination of the Verily Deliverable with materials not furnished by Verily. Verily’s obligation to Indemnify the DexCom Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 11.4.1 shall not apply to the extent that any such Losses arise from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of any DexCom Indemnitee, arise from any material breach by DexCom of this Agreement; or are Losses for which DexCom is obligated to Indemnify the Verily Indemnitees pursuant to Section 11.4.3. Verily may, at Verily’s option, (i) obtain, at its expense, a license from such Third Party for the benefit of DexCom and its customers, and/or (ii) replace or modify the deliverable in question so that it is no longer infringing but provides comparable functionality. Verily’s obligation to indemnify under this Section 11.4.1 shall not extend to use of its deliverable or Verily Service after Verily has offered or implemented a technically reasonable non-infringing alternative design with comparable functionality.
11.4.2    Indemnification by Verily for [***]. Verily hereby agrees to Indemnify the DexCom Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses resulting from a claim by [***].
11.4.3    Indemnification by DexCom.

a deliverable of DexCom under the Development Plan (“DexCom Deliverable”), except to the extent that such infringement results from a modification, enhancement or improvement made or implemented by Verily to the DexCom Deliverable, or combination of the DexCom Deliverable with materials not furnished by DexCom. DexCom’s obligation to Indemnify the Verily Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 11.4.3 shall not apply to the extent that any such Losses arise from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of any Verily Indemnitee, arise from any material breach by Verily of this Agreement or are Losses for which Verily is obligated to Indemnify the DexCom Indemnitees pursuant to Section 11.4.1.
11.4.4     Procedure. The indemnified Party shall provide the indemnifying Party with prompt notice of the Third-Party Claim or [***] giving rise to the indemnification obligation pursuant to this Section 11.4 and, to be eligible to be Indemnified hereunder, the exclusive ability to defend (with the reasonable cooperation of the indemnified Party) or settle any such claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement that admits fault, wrongdoing or damages without the indemnified Party’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, at its own expense and with counsel of its choice, in the defense of any claim or suit that has been assumed by the indemnifying Party.
11.5    Insurance. Each Party shall obtain and maintain, during the term of this Agreement and for six (6) years thereafter, comprehensive general liability insurance, including products liability insurance and coverage for clinical trials. Such insurance shall be with reputable and financially secure insurance carriers, or self-insurance in a form and at levels consistent with industry standards based upon such Party’s activities hereunder and indemnification obligations hereunder, and shall name the other Party as an additional insured. Such liability insurance or self-insurance shall be maintained on an occurrence basis to provide such protection after expiration or termination of the policy itself or this Agreement.
Article 12.

12.2    Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party materially breaches this Agreement, and such material breach shall have continued for [***] days after written notice thereof was provided to the breaching Party by the other Party. Any such termination shall become effective at the end of such [***] day period unless the breaching Party has cured any such material breach prior to the expiration of the [***] day period, provided, however, in the event that, following the Launch of the first Product, a good faith dispute arises with respect to the existence of any material breach of a Party’s obligations to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Develop, Manufacture, Launch, or Commercialize (which material breach, if existing, would give the other Party the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth herein), such termination right shall be tolled commencing on the date of receipt of written notice of such good faith dispute until such time as the dispute is resolved pursuant to Article 13. If this Agreement is terminated following a tolling period as described in this Section 12.2, then, for purposes of determining what constitutes Verily Background IP, the “Term” shall be deemed to end on the date on which such termination would otherwise have been effective in the absence of such tolling.
12.3    General Effects of Expiration or Termination.
12.3.1    Accrued Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not release either Party of any obligation or liability which, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or which is attributable to a period prior to such expiration or termination.
12.3.2    Non-Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, termination of this Agreement by a Party shall be without prejudice to other remedies such Party may have at Law or equity.
12.3.3    Licenses. Section 7.1 (Licenses to DexCom) (except for Section 7.1.6 (License to Verily Trademarks)) and Section 7.2.2 (License to [***]) shall survive any expiration or termination of Agreement, provided however, that: (i) each of the licenses granted to DexCom

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 12.3.4, all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

permitted successors and assigns of the Parties.

14.4    Waiver. Neither Party may waive or release any of its rights or interests in this Agreement except in writing. The failure of either Party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition. No waiver by either Party of any condition or term in any one or more instances shall be construed as a continuing waiver of such condition or term or of another condition or term.
14.5    Severability. If any provision hereof should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a valid, legal and enforceable substitute provision that most nearly reflects the original intent of the Parties and all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in order to carry out the intentions of the Parties as nearly as may be possible. Such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. If a Party seeks to avoid a provision of this Agreement by asserting that such provision is invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable, such action shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement.
14.6    No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the rights to indemnification provided for certain Third Parties as specified in Section 11.4 and as otherwise specified in this Section 14.6, all rights, benefits and remedies under this Agreement are solely intended for the benefit of DexCom and its Affiliates and Verily and its Affiliates, and except for such rights to indemnification expressly provided pursuant to Section 11.4, no Third Party shall have any rights whatsoever to (a) enforce any obligation contained in this Agreement (b) seek a benefit or remedy for any breach of this Agreement, or (c) take any other action relating to this Agreement under any legal theory, including, actions in contract, tort (including but not limited to, negligence, gross negligence and strict liability),

14.7    Entire Agreement/Modification. This Agreement, including its Exhibits, sets forth all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties and supersedes and terminates all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties including the Original Agreement and the Prior Agreements. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by the respective authorized officers of the Parties. All references to the Original Agreement in any other agreement or other document between the Parties that pre-dates the Effective Date shall, on and after the Effective Date, be deemed to refer to this Agreement (except to the extent, if any, that such interpretation would conflict with the terms of this Agreement as they refer or pertain to the Original Agreement).
14.8    Relationship of the Parties. The Parties agree that the relationship of Verily and DexCom established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors. Furthermore, the Parties agree that this Agreement does not, is not intended to, and shall not be construed to, establish an employment, agency or any other relationship. Except as may be specifically provided herein, neither Party shall have any right, power or authority, nor shall they represent themselves as having any authority to assume, create or incur any expense, liability or obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party, or otherwise act as an agent for the other Party for any purpose.
14.9    Force Majeure. Except with respect to payment of money, neither Party shall be liable to the other for failure or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement for the time and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by earthquake, riot, civil commotion, war, terrorist acts, strike, flood, or governmental acts or restriction or other cause, in each case to the extent beyond the reasonable control of the respective Party (any of the foregoing, “Force Majeure Event”). The Party affected by such force majeure will provide the other Party with full particulars thereof as soon as it becomes aware of the same (including its best estimate of the likely extent and duration of the interference with its activities), and will use Commercially Reasonable

14.10    Compliance with Laws/Other. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all rights and obligations of Verily and DexCom are subject to prior compliance with, and each Party shall comply with, all applicable Laws, including obtaining all necessary approvals required by the applicable agencies of the governments of the United States and foreign jurisdictions. In addition, each Party shall conduct its activities under the Collaboration in accordance with good scientific and business practices.
14.11    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
14.12    Bankruptcy Matters. All licenses granted under this Agreement are deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that each Party may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code.
