“(i) None of the indemnity obligations set forth in Section 12.2(a)(vii) (Patent Licenses), Section 12.2(a)(viii) (Third Party Non-Patent Licenses), Section 12.2(a)(ix) solely relating to item 1 (Intel) of Schedule 12.2(a)(ix) (Known Claims) shall apply with respect to Damages claimed by a Person (“Claimant”) against a Purchaser Party if the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates (A) initiates a Proceeding against such Claimant or any of its Affiliates alleging infringement of Intellectual Property Rights or (B) expressly alleges, in a writing sent to such Claimant or any of its Affiliates, infringement of Intellectual Property Rights prior to such Claimant’s (X) initiating a Proceeding against the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates (or a customer of the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to products purchased from the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates) alleging or based on infringement or invalidity of Intellectual Property Rights or (Y) alleging infringement of or invalidity Intellectual Property Rights in a writing sent to the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates (or a customer of the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to products purchased from the Purchaser Party or any of its Affiliates) (an “Initial Assertion”).
(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damages that are subject to the special indemnity obligations set forth in Section 12.2(a)(vii) (Patent Licenses), Section 12.2(a)(viii) (Third Party Non-Patent Licenses) and Section 12.2(a)(ix) (Known Claims) solely relating to item 1 (Intel), 4 (Freescale) and 5 (U of I). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Purchaser Party proceeds with the
17
defense of a third-party infringement claim covered by any of the above-mentioned indemnity obligations, such Purchaser Party shall, in its reasonable discretion, (A) assert defenses of non-infringement and/or invalidity (unless such defenses have no reasonable merit), (B) consider alleging claims or counterclaims of infringement of Intellectual Property Rights by the Claimant (unless the Claimant is a non-practicing entity, or such claims or counterclaims otherwise have no reasonable merit) (for the avoidance of doubt, any such claim or counterclaim shall not be considered an Initial Assertion as set forth above in subsection (i)) and (C) consider having Purchaser Parent or its Affiliates enter into a cross license with the Claimant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely with respect to item 4 (Freescale) of Section 12.2(a)(ix) (Known Claims Indemnity), Purchaser Party shall reasonably assert relevant Freescale Subject Patents (e.g., certain of the Freescale Subject Patents asserted prior to Closing by Seller against Freescale in the negotiations between Freescale and Seller conducted prior to Closing) in order to mitigate any Damages that are subject to the special indemnity obligations with respect to item 4 (Freescale) of Schedule 12.2(a)(ix). For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser Parties shall have no obligation of any kind to initiate any Proceeding against Freescale or any of its Affiliates. If a third-party infringement claim is resolved under a settlement or other agreement agreed to by Purchaser Parent, by means of a cross-license or otherwise, without any Purchaser Party making any monetary payment to the Claimant, Seller will have no indemnification obligations solely with respect to such settlement or other agreement, but for the avoidance of doubt, Seller will continue to have indemnification obligations with respect to defense costs or other Damages associated with such third-party infringement claim. Any settlement or other agreement to be entered into by a Purchaser Party that would result in Seller being obligated to make indemnification payments to a Purchaser Party must be approved by Seller in advance and in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that should Seller not approve such settlement or other agreement, Purchaser Parties shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligation to mitigate Damages as set forth hereunder and in the Purchase Agreement, and Seller shall continue to indemnify Purchaser Parties as set forth hereunder and in the Purchase Agreement. “
