commercial product oering should do so in a manner which does not create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if
a Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product oering, such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees
to defend and indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnied Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs (collectively
"Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnied Contributor to the
extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in connection with its distribution of the Program in a
commercial product oering. The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual or alleged
intellectual property infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnied Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial
Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with the Commercial
Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnied Contributor may participate in any such claim
at its own expense.
• For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product oering, Product X. That Contributor is then a
Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance claims, or oers warranties related to Product
X, those performance claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the
Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims against the other Contributors related to those performance claims and
warranties, and if a court requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor must pay
those damages.
