15.2                        Distributor shall at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter defend, indemnify and hold Pharmacyclics and its Affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees harmless from and against any Loss that they may suffer or incur in connection with any third-party claim arising out of (i) the negligence or intentional misconduct of Distributor or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, agents or employees, or (ii) any breach by Distributor of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; provided however, that the foregoing obligation of indemnification shall not apply to the extent any such Loss arises from (i) the negligence or intentional misconduct or violation of applicable law on the part of Pharmacyclics or its Affiliates, or any of its officers, directors, agents or employees or (ii) breach by Pharmacyclics of any of the terms of this Agreement.

 

15.3                        A party seeking indemnification under this section shall give written notice to the other party within five (5) business days of the indemnified party’s first knowledge of the third party claim giving rise to an indemnity obligation hereunder, provided that a delay in providing such notice will not relieve the indemnifying party of its indemnification obligations hereunder unless the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such delay.  Provided that the indemnifying party is not contesting the indemnity obligation, the indemnified party shall permit the indemnifying party to control any litigation relating to such claim, including without limitation control over the retention of counsel and control over the settlement or other disposition of any such claim, provided that the indemnifying party shall act reasonably and in good faith with respect to all matters relating to the defense, settlement or disposition of such claim as the defense, settlement or disposition relates to the party/ies being indemnified under this Section.  The indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in its defense of any claim for which indemnification is sought hereunder.  If the indemnifying party fails to defend the claim within a reasonable time, the indemnified party may assume the defense

 

13



 

thereof, and the indemnifying party will reimburse the indemnified party for all expenses incurred in connection with such defense (including reasonable attorney’s fees, settlement payments, and payments of judgments) until the indemnifying party assumes such defense.  All rights of the indemnified party against any third party with respect to which a claim of indemnity was paid hereunder shall be subrogated to the indemnifying party.
