PATENT, COPYRIGHT AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS INDEMNITY

First Party shall, at its expense, defend and indemnify Second Party and old Second Party officers, directors, agents and employees harmless for damages and reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) related to any suits or claims by a third party brought against Second Party alleging that the OEM Products or Licensed Materials sold or licensed pursuant to this Agreement or included into any Licensed Products infringe any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or similar right provided that First Party is promptly notified, rendered reasonable assistance by Second Party as required, and permitted to direct the defense or settlement negotiations. The foregoing obligation of First Party does not apply with respect to any OEM Product or Licensed Materials or portions or components thereof which is or was:

made in whole or in part in accordance with Second Party's specifications or instructions and such Second Party specifications are the source of the alleged infringement,

that are modified outside of the specifications or by any unauthorized party (including Second Party and any End User) (in either case other than with First Party's prior written consent), if the alleged infringement relates to such modification,

combined with other products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to such combination, provided that the alleged infringement claim could not be made but for such combination,

where Second Party continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified in writing by First Party thereof or after receiving a modification delivered at First Party's expense that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or

where Second Party's use of the OEM Product or Licensed Materials is not in accordance with this Agreement as well as any applicable Documentation. Second Party will indemnify and hold First Party and its officers, directors, agents and employees harmless from all damages, settlements, attorneys' fees and expenses related to a claim of infringement or misappropriation which is determined by a ruling of any court of competent jurisdiction or by a mutually-agreed arbitrator, or by mutual agreement of Second Party and First Party, to have been principally caused by Second Party's conduct. First Party shall have no liability for any infringing combinations arising from the integration of First Party's OEM Products or Licensed Materials together with other products provided by Second Party or any third party, provided that the alleged infringement claim could not be made but for such combination.

Should the use of OEM Products or Licensed Materials by Second Party be enjoined, or in the event First Party wishes to minimize its potential liability hereunder, First Party may, at its option, either:

substitute a fully functionally equivalent non-infringing unit of the OEM Product or Licensed Materials;

modify the infringing item so that it no longer infringes but remains fully functionally equivalent;

obtain for Second Party, at First Party's expense, the right to continue use of such item; or

if none of the foregoing is feasible, First Party may take back such infringing item or items and refund to Second Party the purchase price paid therefore, less amortized depreciation on a [NUMBER] year straight line basis. The foregoing in this Section 12 shall be First Party's sole liability and Second Party's sole remedy for infringement or misappropriation of third party intellectual property or proprietary rights.

Receiving Party, or the Receiving Party learns from the Disclosing Party, information relating to the Disclosing Party's products, the properties, composition or structure thereof or the manufacture or processing thereof or machines therefore or as to sensitive aspects of the Disclosing Party's business (including, without limitation, computer programs, algorithms, names and expertise of employees and consultants, know-how, formulae, processes, ideas, inventions (whether patentable or not), schematics and other technical, business, financial, customer and product development plans, forecasts, strategies and information), such information shall be deemed the confidential property of the Disclosing Party ("Proprietary Information"). The Receiving Party recognizes and acknowledges that the Disclosing Party's Proprietary Information (and the confidential nature thereof) is critical to the Disclosing Party's business and that the Disclosing Party would not enter into this Agreement without assurance that its Proprietary Information and the value thereof will be protected as provided in this Section 15 and elsewhere in this Agreement.

The Receiving Party agrees (i) to hold the Disclosing Party's Proprietary Information in confidence as a fiduciary and to take all reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information (including, without limitation, similar precautions to those which the Receiving Party employs with respect to its confidential materials of similar nature or value), (ii) not to divulge any Proprietary Information or any derivative thereof to any third person except under nondisclosure agreement on a need to know basis, and (iii) not to use such Proprietary Information at any time during or following the term of this Agreement, except as contemplated by this Agreement. Any employee or agent given access to Proprietary Information must have a legitimate "need to know" and shall agree to similar binding obligations with respect thereto and execute a written agreement to that effect. Without granting any right or license, the Disclosing Party agrees that the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall not apply (A) with respect to material is in the public domain (through no improper action or inaction by the Receiving Party or any of its agents or employees); (B) with respect to material that can be shown to have been independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of any Proprietary Information by persons who have not had access to such Proprietary Information; (C) with respect to material received from a third party without breach of any nondisclosure obligation; and (D) material as to which the Disclosing Party authorizes to be disclosed to others without confidentiality restrictions.

The Receiving Party may disclose material required to be disclosed by law or court order (provided that the Disclosing Party is given an opportunity to restrict the scope of required disclosure). The Receiving Party must promptly notify the Disclosing Party of any information it believes comes within the circumstance set forth in the immediately preceding sentence and will bear the burden of proving the existence of any such circumstance by clear and convincing evidence. The Receiving Party's obligations under this Section shall terminate [NUMBER] years after the effective date of any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Immediately upon termination of this Agreement or upon the Disclosing Party's request, the Receiving Party will turn over to the Disclosing Party all Proprietary Information as well as all documents or media containing any Proprietary Information as well as all copies, extracts or derivatives thereof.

The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique nature of the Proprietary Information, there can be no adequate remedy at law for any material breach of its obligations under Sections 2.d or 15 hereof and that any such breach may result in irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party. Therefore, upon any such breach, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to its other remedies and to be indemnified and held harmless by the Receiving Party from any damage, expense, loss or harm, including, without limitation, lost profits and attorneys' fees, in connection with any breach or enforcement of the Receiving Party's obligations hereunder or the unauthorized use or release of any such Proprietary Information for which the Receiving Party is directly or indirectly responsible. The Receiving Party will notify the Disclosing Party in writing immediately upon the occurrence of any such unauthorized release or other breach. Any breach of this Section will constitute a material breach of this Agreement and give rise to the Disclosing Party's immediate right to terminate this Agreement.
