ARTICLE 10 

INDEMNIFICATION 




10.1 Cary Indemnification. Cary shall indemnify IntelGenx and its officers, directors, employees and Affiliates (collectively, the “IntelGenx Parties”) against any and all losses,
liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including without limitation costs of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), sustained by an IntelGenx Party and arising from: 


 - 12 - 











(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Cary in this Agreement or any agreement, instrument or document delivered by Cary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; or 


(b) any failure to perform duly and punctually any covenant, agreement or undertaking on the part of Cary contained in this Agreement; 


except, in each case, to the extent such Losses are caused by IntelGenx’s breach of this Agreement or the willful misconduct or negligence of IntelGenx. 


10.2 IntelGenx Indemnification. IntelGenx shall indemnify Cary and its officers, directors, employees and Affiliates (collectively, the “Cary Parties”) against any and all Losses sustained by any Cary Party and arising from:



(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by IntelGenx in this Agreement or any agreement, instrument or document delivered by IntelGenx pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; 


(b) any failure to perform duly and punctually any covenant, agreement or undertaking on the part of IntelGenx contained in this Agreement; or 


(c) any death of, or bodily injury to, any person on account of the ingestion or use of any Product to the extent that such death or injury is attributable to or arises out of clinical studies or development work conducted by IntelGenx or its
designee(s) or Product manufactured by IntelGenx or at its direction; 


except, in each case, to the extent such Losses are caused by Cary’s breach of this Agreement or the willful misconduct or negligence of Cary. 


10.3 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by a Party of notice of any claim which could give rise to a right to indemnification pursuant to Sections 10.1 or 10.2, such Party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give the
other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice describing the claims in reasonable detail. The failure of an Indemnified Party to give notice in the manner provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations
under this Article 10, except to the extent that such failure to give notice materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim.


(a) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.3, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnified Party, so
long as any compromise does not require the Indemnified Party to undertake any direct obligation or perform any covenant or agreement. If the Indemnifying Party shall undertake to compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall promptly
(and in any event not less than ten (10) days after receipt
of the Indemnified Party’s original notice) notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so. 


 - 13 - 











(b) The Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise or defense against any such asserted liability and shall make available to the Indemnifying Party copies of any books, records or other
documents within its control that are reasonably necessary for such defense. To the extent desirable and appropriate in connection with the defense of any liability described in this Section 10.3, the Parties shall enter into a joint defense and
privilege agreement in customary form. 


(c) All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.


(d) If the Indemnifying Party fails to compromise or defend the asserted liability or fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election to compromise or defend as herein provided, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its option,
to pay, compromise or defend such asserted liability by its own counsel and its reasonable costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.


(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim over the objection of the other; provided, however, that consent to settlement or compromise shall not be
unreasonably withheld and that such settlement or compromise does not obligate Indemnified Party undertake any obligation or perform any covenant or agreement.


(f) If the Indemnifying Party controls the defense of an asserted liability, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in (but not control) such defense.


(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.3, the Party conducting the defense of a claim shall keep the other Party informed on a reasonable and timely basis as to the status of the defense of such claim.


10.4 Indemnification Payment. With respect to all claims relating to the CPI-300 Project (including claims relating to patent infringement, such as litigation under 21 U.S.C. 505(j)(5)(B)(iv) or relating to the Biovail Litigation), IntelGenx
shall directly defend, compromise and settle such claims pursuant to the above provisions and shall pay any liabilities or expenses relating to such claims as they occur, provided that to the extent it is later determined that Cary is not entitled
to indemnification with respect to any costs incurred, Cary shall reimburse such costs. With respect to all other claims, upon the determination of liability after pursuit of compromise or defense of any amount to be indemnified under this Article
10, the appropriate Party shall pay to the other, or to the person to which such amount is owed as the case may be, within ten (10) business days after the determination of such amount, the amount of any claim for indemnification made hereunder.

QuitPak Project, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties including but not limited to the Terminated Agreements. No supplement, modification or waiver of this
Agreement will be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement (whether or not similar), nor
will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided in such writing.

shall not be unreasonably withheld. To expedite this process, IntelGenx will provide Cary with a draft press release prior to the signing of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for at least three years following the effective date of this
Agreement, neither Party shall make any disparaging statement in public, including in any press release or public statement, about the other Party. This nondisparagement clause does not give Cary approval rights over any future press releases.

Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive upon the Parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in a court having competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award costs and expenses as part of any decision, including
attorney’s fees incurred in any dispute which is determined by arbitration pursuant to this Section. Except where clearly prevented by the area in dispute, both Parties agree to continue performing their respective obligations under this
Agreement while the dispute is being resolved. Arbitration shall not prevent any Party from seeking injunctive relief where such remedy is an appropriate form of remedy under the circumstances. Any dispute, controversy or claim relating to: (i) the
scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any patent rights covering the manufacture, use or sale of any Product; (ii) the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any trademark rights relating to any Product; or (iii) any
Party’s potential breach of its confidentiality obligations under this Agreement shall be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the territory in which such patent or trademark rights were granted or arose.
