Should Supplier not inform RoboG of Open Source Software or otherwise breach this Section, it shall be a material breach and Supplier shall indemnify and defend RoboG, its Representatives and RoboG’s end user(s) from all Claims arising from such breach, and RoboG shall be entitled to cancel the Purchase Order without penalty.
