     7.1 Intellectual Property Indemnification. For the seven (7) year period following the Effective Date, each party will, at its expense, defend, indemnify and hold the other party harmless from and against any liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or resulting from any claim, suit or other proceeding in which it is alleged that the Licensed Subject Matter, in whole or part and excluding the Third Party Components, licensed hereunder to such other party infringes any Intellectual Property Rights of any third party, provided that the foregoing obligation shall be deemed null and void with respect to any Intellectual Property Rights of third party Standards Bodies established after the Effective Date.

In the event that during the seven (7) year period following the Effective Date one or more third party(s) (each a “Claimant”) claims or files suit and/or initiates any other proceeding against either party (the “Defendant”) in which it alleges that the Licensed Subject Matter, excluding the Third Party Components, licensed hereunder from the other party (the “Licensor”) infringes one or more patents owned by or exclusively licensed to Claimant, then Defendant shall notify Licensor in writing of the identity of Claimant and the substance of the allegation of infringement or of the proceeding initiated against Defendant. The parties shall then work in good faith to determine whether there is a basis for forming a good faith belief that the Claimant is infringing one or more of Licensor’s patents (“Licensor’s Patents”). In the event that the parties disagree that there is a basis for forming such a belief, the parties shall submit the matter to a third party arbiter mutually agreed upon by the parties (e.g., a respected and qualified law firm) in order to make such a determination. In the event that the parties agree in writing that there is a basis for forming such a belief or if such third party arbiter determines in writing that there is a basis for forming such a belief, Defendant shall have the option, upon written notice to Licensor, to institute a lawsuit against the Claimant for infringement of the Licensor Patents at its own expense, in which event Defendant will be entitled to control such lawsuit and to receive one hundred percent (100%) of any damages, settlement or other monies (including royalties) recovered as a result of such lawsuit, provided however, that (i) neither party shall settle such lawsuit without the advance written consent of the other party to the terms of the settlement, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) neither party shall have the right to grant Claimant a license or covenant not to sue under the Licensor Patents, but Licensor shall do so to the extent a license or covenant not to sue forms a term of a settlement to which the parties have consented, and (iii) Licensor may elect to have

counsel of its own choosing participate at Licensor’s expense in such lawsuit and may at its option elect to assume control over any portion of the lawsuit involving a challenge to the validity of any of the Licensor Patents, Licensor agrees to join as a plaintiff in any lawsuit instituted by Defendant in accordance with this Section 7.4 to the extent required to secure jurisdiction for such lawsuit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Licensor be compelled under this Section 7.4 to (i) breach any covenants-not-to-sue that it has agreed upon in writing with Claimant prior to the date of such claim, suit, or other proceeding and/or (ii) materially damage any significant business relationship that it has established with Claimant prior to the date of such claim, suit, or other proceeding, provided that Licensor shall bear the burden of proving the existence of either or both of the foregoing exceptions. Furthermore, as of the date Licensor receives notice from Defendant of such claim, suit, or other proceeding, it shall not for the duration of any determinations and/or legal actions occurring under this Section 7,4 grant Claimant a license to and/or under the Licensor’s Patents and/or assign one or more of the Licensor’s Patents to Claimant without the express written consent of Defendant.
