MUTUAL INDEMNITY<BR><BR>8.1. Indemnification by ORTOO. We will defend the Licensee against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought and finally awarded against the Licensee by a third party alleging that the use of the Software in accordance with this Licence Agreement infringes or misappropriates such third party’s intellectual property rights (a “Claim Against Licensee”), and will indemnify the Licensee from any damages, attorney fees and costs finally awarded against the Licensee by a court of competent jurisdiction as a result of, or for amounts paid by the Licensee under a court-approved settlement of a Claim Against Licensee, provided the Licensee (a) promptly give ORTOO written notice of the Claim Against Licensee, (b) give ORTOO sole control of the defence and settlement of the Claim Against Licensee (except that ORTOO may not settle any Claim Against Licensee unless it unconditionally releases the Licensee of all liability), and (c) give ORTOO all reasonable assistance, at ORTOO\'s expense.

The above defence and indemnification obligations do not apply to the extent a Claim Against Licensee arises from ORTOO’s use of any Content or Licensee’s breach of this Licence Agreement. The provisions in this clause 8.1 set out the Licensee’s sole remedy against ORTOO in respect of any claims arising under this clause 8.1. The indemnity in this Section 8.1 shall not apply to losses, claims or liabilities arising from Licensee’s failure to comply with applicable law, gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or claims covered by Licensee’s indemnity in Section 8.2 below.<BR><BR>8.2. Indemnification by the Licensee.

Therefore, the Licensee agrees that ORTOO shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, as determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the provisions of this Licence Agreement.<BR><BR>10.4 If any provision of this Licence Agreement or the Software thereof is declared void, illegal, or unenforceable, the remainder of this Licence Agreement will be valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law. In such event, the parties agree to use their best efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision by a provision that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, achieves the purposes intended under the invalid or unenforceable provision.<BR><BR>10.5 Any failure by any party to this Licence Agreement to enforce at any time any term or condition under this Licence Agreement will not be considered a waiver of that party’s right thereafter to enforce each and every term and condition of this Licence Agreement.<BR><BR>10.6 Neither party will be responsible for delays resulting from circumstances beyond the reasonable control of such party, provided that the non-performing party uses reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance and continues performance hereunder with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed.<BR><BR>10.7 Subject to clause 7.1, this Licence Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, oral and written, made with respect to the subject matter hereof.<BR><BR>10.8 This Licence Agreement may be varied either: (a) by the written agreement of both parties; or (b) by ORTOO giving to the Licensee written notice of the variation, such variation to come into effect at the end of the then-current Licence Agreement Period.<BR><BR>10.9 This Licence Agreement governed by and construed in accordance with English law.
