- Indemnification
- Indemnity by Tector. Tector will defend Customer against any claim, demand, suit, or proceeding (“Claim”) made or brought against Customer by a third party alleging that the use of the Technology by Customer in accordance with this MSA infringes or misappropriates third party Intellectual Property and will, subject to clause 10, indemnify Customer for any Losses finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction against Customer (or any settlement approved by Tector in writing) in connection with any such Claim.

- Conduct of Claims. In connection with any Claim: (a) the indemnified party will promptly notify the indemnifying party of such Claim in writing; (b) the indemnifying party will have the sole and exclusive authority to defend and/or settle such Claim (provided that it may not settle any Claim without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed where it unconditionally releases the indemnified part of all Liability); and (c) the indemnified party reasonably cooperates with the indemnifying in connection therewith.

- Termination. Each party may terminate this MSA upon written notice to the other party if there are no Order Forms then in effect.
