“Section 1542. (General Release - Claims Extinguished.) A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

 

The Parties further waive and release all rights and benefits under any similar law or legal principle of any jurisdiction with respect to the waiver or release of unknown and unsuspected claims granted in this Agreement.

 

10. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Party represents and warrants that it is fully entitled and duly authorized to enter into and perform this Agreement without the consent of any third party, including the right to grant all licenses granted by IHI hereunder, and to transfer good legal title to all equipment, components, and materials transferred by IHI hereunder.

7.


the best of IHI’s knowledge, the Intellectual Property Rights actually assigned or licensed to PDI under Section 3(a) constitute all Intellectual Property Rights related to the PDI-IHI Work Product and are sufficient for PDI to conduct business arrangements similar to the Business Relations in substantially the same manner that IHI conducted the Business Relations prior to the Effective Date.

 

11. TERM AND TERMINATION

 

a. Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue indefinitely, unless earlier terminated in accordance with this SECTION 11 (TERM AND TERMINATION).

 

b. Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of breach from the non-breaching party.

 

c. Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, SECTIONS 1 (DEFINITIONS), 2 (TERMINATION OF PDI-IHI AGREEMENTS), 3 (INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ASSIGNMENT AND LICENSE), 4 (FURTHER ASSURANCES), 9 (RELEASE), 10 (REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES), 11(c) (Effect of Termination), 12 (INDEMNITY), 13 (CONFIDENTIALITY), and 14 (GENERAL PROVISIONS), and the Exhibits referenced therein will survive such termination in perpetuity.

 

12. INDEMNITY. Each Party will indemnify and hold harmless the other Party and its affiliates, employees, and agents from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, and other expenses (including attorneys’ and expert witnesses’ costs and fees) arising from or relating to any breach of any representation or warranty of the indemnifying Party in this Agreement. In the event of any third-party claim, demand, suit, or action (a “Claim”) for which the indemnified Party (or any of its affiliates, employees, or agents) is or may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, may, at its option, require the indemnifying Party to defend such Claim at the indemnifying Party’s sole expense. The indemnifying Party may not agree to settle any such Claim without the indemnified Party’s express prior written consent.

 

13. CONFIDENTIALITY

 

a. Confidential Information. To further the purposes of this Agreement, and in consideration of the disclosure of Confidential Information, each Party agrees to comply with the terms hereof regarding confidentiality of information. Each Party agrees to use the Confidential Information solely for the purposes expressly permitted in this Agreement. Neither Party shall disclose the Confidential Information to any person except to employees and authorized contractors of each Party (that have executed confidentiality agreements with each Party that are at least as protective of the other Party as the confidentiality obligations herein) who have a need to know. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party will use at least the same degree of care that it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like importance, but no less than reasonable care. The foregoing obligation of confidentiality will not apply to information that the receiving Party can demonstrate, with clear and convincing evidence (i) was at the time of disclosure by the disclosing Party to the receiving Party generally known to the public; (ii) is publicly disclosed (without obligation of confidentiality) by the disclosing Party subsequent to disclosure to the receiving Party; or (iii) is independently developed by the receiving Party or third parties without use of or reference to the Confidential Information.
