Where indemnification is sought by a Party (the “Claiming Party”), (a) it shall notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly of any claim or litigation or threatened claim to which the indemnification relates, provided, however, failure to provide prompt notification will only relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnity obligations to the extent of actual prejudice, if any; (b) upon the Indemnifying Party’s written acknowledgement of its obligation to indemnify in such instance, in form and substance satisfactory to the Claiming Party, the Claiming Party shall afford the Indemnifying Party an opportunity to participate in and, at the option and expense of the Indemnifying Party, control, compromise, settle, defend or otherwise resolve the claim or litigation, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any non-monetary settlement without the Claiming Party’s prior written consent and the Claiming Party shall not affect any such compromise or settlement without prior consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (c) the Claiming Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party at no cost to itself in any such compromise, settlement, defense or resolution of such claim or litigation.

10.2 FORCE MAJEURE
No failure, delay or default in performance of any obligation of a Party to this Agreement (except the payment of money) shall constitute a default or breach to the extent that such failure to perform, delay or default arises out of a cause, existing or future, beyond the control (including, but not limited to: action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority; fire; strike, lockout or other labor dispute; flood; war; riot; theft; earthquake; natural disaster or acts of God; national emergencies; unavailability of materials or utilities; sabotage; disease; viruses; pandemic, or the act, negligence or default of the other Party) and without negligence or willful misconduct of the Party otherwise chargeable with failure, delay or default.
