Indemnity

  1. Mallowstreet will defend, indemnify and hold harmless you, your Affiliates and each of your directors, officers or employees ( the "Company Indemnified Parties") from and against claims, demands, proceedings, regulatory actions, liabilities, losses, causes of action, damages, fines, judgements, and settlements brought by a third party (a "Claim") including reimbursement of all reasonable legal fees and expenses, made or brought against a Company Indemnified Party, to the extent resulting from the Services infringement of a third party Intellectual Property Right, unless caused by the combination, operation of use of the Services with other applications, portions of applications, data, products or services not provided by Mallowstreet where they would not by itself be infringing. If the use of the Services by Company has become, or in Mallowstreet's opinion is likely to become, the subject of any claim of infringement, Mallowstreet may at its option and expense:
    1. Procure for the Company the right to continue using and receiving the Services as set forth hereunder;
    2. Replace or modify the Services (with comparable functionality); or

The indemnifying party will:
    1. control the defence of the Claim; and
    2. obtain the other party's prior written approval of the indemnifying party's settlement or compromise of a Claim.
