10. Infringement Indemnification
(a) yWorks shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify, hold Licensee and its directors, officers, employees and other agents (collectively, "Licensee Indemnitees") harmless, from and against any claims or suits made or brought against a Licensee Indemnitee alleging that the Software as delivered hereunder and solely when used within the scope of this Agreement infringe any third-party (i) patents in the U.S., European Union, Switzerland, Japan, Canada, or Australia or other countries mutually agreed in writing, (ii) copyrights or trade secrets worldwide, or (iii) registered trademark rights in the U.S., European Union, Switzerland, Japan, Canada, or Australia (collectively, "IPR Claims"); provided, however, that: (i) Licensor has been promptly notified in writing by Licensee of any such IPR claim, (ii) Licensor is permitted to direct the defense or settlement negotiations, (iii) Licensee did not agree to a settlement without Licensor's prior written consent, (iv) Licensee renders reasonable assistance and information as required. Licensor will pay any costs, damages and reasonable attorneys' fees attributable to or arising out of such IPR claim. The liability of yWorks exclusively pursues the paragraphs above. Any further claims not explicitly granted therein are excluded and this is the exclusive remedy of Licensee for any infringement of IPR by the Software and this Agreement. Deviations thereof solely apply if after the applicable mandatory law the liability may not be excluded or limited.
(b) In the event that yWorks reasonably believes that the Software may be subject to an IPR claim, yWorks may, at its own option, either (i) procure for Licensee the right to use the Software free of any liability, (ii) modify the infringing item so that it no longer infringes but remains substantially functionally equivalent, or (iii) refund any License Fees related to this Software paid by Licensee and terminate this Agreement as to the infringing item.
(c) Notwithstanding the stipulations above yWorks shall have no liability for any infringement to the extent it is arising from (i) the use of other than a current unaltered release of the Software, if the infringement would have been avoided by the use of the then-current release, and if Licensor has provided such current release to Licensee, (ii) the integration or combination of the Software with any other software, services, materials or products not integrated or combined by Licensor, if the infringement would have been avoided in the absence of such integration or combination, (iii) modifications to the Software made by anyone other than Licensor, including, but not limited to, Modifications made by the Licensee.
(d) To the extent an IPR Claim is excluded from yWorks' defense obligation, Licensee will at its own expense, defend, indemnify, hold Licensor harmless against any action brought against yWorks provided, however, that (i) yWorks has promptly notified Licensee in writing of any such IPR claim, (ii) Licensor did not enter into a settlement without Licensee's prior written consent, (iii) Licensor renders reasonable assistance and information as required. Licensee shall have sole control of any such action and settlement negotiations, and Licensee will pay any costs, damages and reasonable attorneys' fees attributable to or arising out of such IPR claim. yWorks has the right to assume control of such a defense or settlement, provided however, that Licensee will have no obligation to pay the costs and expenses of such yWorks-controlled defense or settlement if Licensee did not breach its own defense and settlement obligations as stipulated in the above paragraph. The liability of Licensee for third-party IPR claims related to Licensee modifications or combinations or use of a non-current release exclusively pursues the paragraphs above. Any further claims not explicitly granted herein are excluded and this is the exclusive remedy of Licensor for such claims.
