13 – INDEMNIFICATION

13.1 PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE

Each party (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to defend at its expense and indemnify and hold harmless the other party and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each an “Indemnified Party”), in accordance with the procedures described in this Section, from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses including without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses paid to or for the benefit of an unaffiliated third party (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or in connection with any such third party claim for: (i) the death or bodily injury of any person caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnifying Party; or (ii) the damage, loss or destruction of any real or tangible personal property caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnifying Party.

13.2 INFRINGEMENT

Vendor will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Customer for Losses Customer incurs as a direct result of any unaffiliated third party claim based on any claim that the Service infringes any U.S. copyright, trademark or trade secret, except to the extent resulting from (i) Customer’s modification of the Service or combination by Customer the Services with other products or services if the Service would not have been infringing but for such combination or modification, (ii) Customer’s use of the Service in a manner not authorized herein or for which it was not designed, (iii) Customer’s failure to use an updated non-infringing version of the applicable intellectual property to the extent Customer was notified that the update cured an infringement, (iv) changes to the Service made by Vendor at the direction of the Customer or (v) Customer Data. If any item for which Vendor has an indemnification obligation under this Section becomes, or in Vendor’s reasonable opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement or misappropriation claim or proceeding, Vendor will, in addition to indemnifying Customer as provided in this Section, promptly take the following actions, at no additional charge to Customer, in the listed order of priority: (a) secure the right to continue using the item or (b) replace or modify the item to make it non-infringing, provided that the replacement or modified item provides functionality that is materially the same as the infringing item. If neither of such actions can be accomplished by Vendor using commercially reasonable efforts, and only in such event, Vendor will remove the item from the Service and the applicable Service fee will be equitably adjusted to reflect such removal; if removed item(s) result in materially diminished capabilities, Customer may terminate this Agreement and Vendor will refund prepaid Service fees on a pro-rated basis. This Section 13.2 states Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for Vendor’s infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property of a third party.

13.3 CUSTOMER’S INDEMNITY

Customer shall defend and indemnify Vendor and its Third Party Vendors against any and all Losses incurred by Vendor and its Third Party Vendors arising out of or in connection with a claim by a third party (i) alleging that the Customer Data or the Customer Trademarks, or any use thereof, infringes the rights of, or has caused harm to, a third party, or (ii) arising out of Customer’s breach of Sections 7.5 and 7.8.

Customer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Vendor, its affiliates, successors, and assigns, including the applicable officers, directors, employees, and agents thereof for damages, costs and attorneys’ fees Vendor incurs from any unaffiliated third-party claim arising from Customer’s Content or Customer’s or any end user’s use of the Services.

13.4 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES

The party seeking indemnification shall give prompt notice of the claim and will tender the defense; provided, however, that such party’s failure to provide notification shall not affect the indemnifying party’s indemnification obligations except to the extent that the failure to notify delays or prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend the applicable claim. The indemnifying party shall conduct the defense and shall have control of the litigation, and the indemnified party shall cooperate in defending against the claim. The indemnified party shall have the right, at any time and at its own expense, to participate in the defense of the claim with counsel of its own choosing. The indemnifying party shall not make any settlement of the claim that results in any liability or imposes any obligation on the indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party fails to (i) respond to the notice of a claim, or (ii) assume the defense of a claim, the party seeking indemnification shall have the right to defend the claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the reasonable cost, expense, and risk of the indemnifying party, and the indemnifying shall promptly reimburse the indemnified party for all such costs and expenses.

14 – NOTICES

In the event that any such failure or delay exceeds thirty (30) days, the party whose performance is not so abridged may terminate this Agreement upon notice and without opportunity to cure, in which case Vendor shall refund prepaid fees on a pro rata basis to the first date of such failure or delay.

19 – SECURITY AND SECURITY POLICIES

The Vendor will provide the security services set (the “Security Services”). Except to the extent caused by Vendor’s failure to provide Security Services, Vendor is not responsible for (i) unauthorized access to Customer’s Content, or (ii) damages arising out of unauthorized access.

Customer acknowledges that some of the Services may be performed by Vendor or its third-party suppliers outside the country(ies) where the Services are obtained, and information pertaining to Customer’s use of the Services may be incorporated into Vendor’s global database(s) to assist Vendor in providing the Services. Customer shall be solely responsible for obtaining any required consents to such off-shore support from Customer’s employees and other end Users of the Services.

The Vendor will provide the Services at the Service Levels set forth in the Statement of Work. CREDITS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE TO MEET A PARTICULAR CRITICAL SERVICE LEVEL, IF ANY, ARE CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR VENDOR’S FAILURE TO MEET THAT PARTICULAR CRITICAL SERVICE LEVEL.
