                Party pursuant to the indemnity provisions provided for herein. An Indemnified Party shall be liable for any costs resulting from any settlement made by an Indemnifying Party without the prior consent of the Indemnified Party to such
                settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

                Party shall take all commercially reasonable actions to protect the other Party’s or its Affiliates’ Confidential Information from disclosure or misappropriation (but in no event shall such Party use less than the degree of care is uses to

                reasonable efforts to minimise such disclosure and to obtain confidential treatment for all or relevant portions of the Confidential Information to be disclosed.
