Defense of Proceedings. The Company will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Proceeding or to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, provided that in the event that # the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict, # the named parties in any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and Indemnitee and Indemnitee shall conclude that there may be one or more legal defenses available to him or her that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company, or # any such representation by the Company would be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, then Indemnitee will be entitled to retain separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any particular Proceeding) at the Company’s expense. The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Indemnitee is or could have been a party unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money and includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

Control of Defense. In the event that an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a Third Party Proceeding which constitutes a matter for which either # the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2 or [Section 8.4], as applicable, or # if determined adversely to the Indemnified Party, would provide a basis for a claim for indemnification under Section 8.2 or [Section 8.4], as applicable (each such claim, a “Third Party Indemnifiable Claim”), and with respect to the defense of such Third Party Indemnifiable Claim, and subject to the limitations on settlement set forth in [Section 8.6(c)], the Indemnified Party shall assume and control the settlement and defense of such Proceeding and appoint and select lead counsel. The Indemnified Party shall keep the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, reasonably informed of the defense of such Proceeding by providing copies of any pleadings or other material communications, to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall (and shall cause its respective Affiliates to) provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding, including by making available, at the Indemnified Party’s expense, such witnesses, records, materials and other information in such Person’s possession or under such Person’s control as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party.

Enforcement and Defense. In the event that Northern or Spero becomes aware of a suspected infringement of any Northern Patent Right, or any such Northern Patent Right is challenged in any action or proceeding (other than any interferences, oppositions, reissue proceedings or reexaminations, which are addressed above), such Party shall notify the other Party promptly, and following such notification, the Parties shall confer. Except as otherwise provided below, Spero shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to defend any such action or proceeding or bring an infringement action with respect to such infringement at its own expense, in its own name and entirely under its own direction and control, or settle any such action or proceeding by sublicense; provided that, if there exists an issued SC Patent to serve as the basis of the infringement action in connection with such Third Party activities, Spero will limit its enforcement action to such SC Patent if so doing does not materially decrease Spero’s likelihood of success. Prior to initiating an enforcement action that uses a Northern Patent Right other than an SC Patent as the basis for the claim of infringement, Spero shall meet with Northern to discuss ways to manage the potential risk to such Northern Patent Right in connection with such enforcement action, including limiting the number and scope of claims that are asserted in connection with such action. Spero shall use good faith efforts to employ any reasonable measures agreed to by the Parties to manage such potential risk. Northern shall reasonably assist Spero in any action or proceeding being defended or prosecuted if so requested, and shall join such action or proceeding if reasonably requested by Spero or required by applicable law at Spero’s expense. After Spero has recovered an amount equal to the cost it incurred in connection with any such action or proceeding, any remaining and received amounts of compensation and/or damages paid by a third party as awarded to Spero due to the above action or proceeding shall be shared ​ percent (​) to Spero and ​ percent (​) to Northern. With respect to infringements arising out of the activities of a Third Party with a compound that is an Other Compound, Northern shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to defend any such action or proceeding or bring an infringement action with respect to such

Control of Defense. Except with respect to any Third Party Claim that is a Third Party Infringement Claim, the process for the defense of which shall be governed by Section 7.5, at its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify any Allergan Indemnitee or UroGen Indemnitee, as applicable, in respect of such Third Party Claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against an Allergan Indemnitee’s or UroGen Indemnitee’s, as applicable, claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall immediately deliver to the Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Allergan Indemnitee or UroGen Indemnitee, as applicable, in connection with the Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in [Section 10.2.3], the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or any Allergan Indemnitee or UroGen Indemnitee, as applicable, in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim. If it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless an Allergan Indemnitee or UroGen Indemnitee, as applicable, from and against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) and any Losses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in its defense of such Third Party Claim.

Control of Defense. In the event Assignor seeks indemnification under Section 9.1, Assignor shall inform Assignee of a claim as soon as reasonably practicable after Assignor receives notice of the claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by Assignor to give notice of a claim as provided in this Section 9.2 shall not relieve Assignee of Assignee’s indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that Assignee is actually damaged as a direct result of such failure to give notice), shall permit Assignee to assume direction and control of the defense of the claim (including the right to settle the claim solely for monetary consideration) using counsel reasonably satisfactory to Assignor, and shall cooperate as requested (at the expense of Assignee) in the defense of the claim. If Assignee does not assume control of such defense within […​…] after receiving notice of the claim from Assignor, Assignor shall control such defense and, without limiting Assignee’s indemnification obligations, Assignee shall reimburse Assignor for all costs, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred by Assignor in defending itself within […​…] after receipt of any invoice therefor from Assignor. The party not controlling such defense may participate therein at such party’s own expense. The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such action, suit, proceeding or claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto. Assignor shall not agree to any settlement of such action, suit, proceeding or claim without the prior written consent of Assignee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Assignee shall not agree to any settlement of such action, suit, proceeding or claim or consent to any judgment in respect thereof that does not include a complete and unconditional release of Assignor from all liability with respect thereto, that imposes any liability or obligation on Assignor, that acknowledges fault by Assignor without the prior written consent of Assignor.
