COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION</span></b> </p> 218 219 <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Commercial distributors of software may 220 accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners 221 and the like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use 222 of the Program, the Contributor who includes the Program in a commercial 223 product offering should do so in a manner which does not create potential 224 liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the 225 Program in a commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial 226 Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other 227 Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and 228 costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other 229 legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to 230 the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in 231 connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product 232 offering. The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses 233 relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property infringement. In order 234 to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial 235 Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor 236 to control, and cooperate with the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and 237 any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate 238 in any such claim at its own expense.</span> </p> 239 240 <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>For example, a Contributor might include the 241 Program in a commercial product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a 242 Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance 243 claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance claims and 244 warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this 245 section, the Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims against the 246 other Contributors related to those performance claims and warranties, and if a 247 court requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the 248 Commercial Contributor must pay those damages.</span> </p> 249 250 <p><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>5.
