If the Disclosing Party waives compliance or, after providing the notice and assistance required under this Section 9.4, the Receiving Party remains required by law to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party will disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose and, on the Disclosing Party’s request, will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances from the applicable court or other presiding authority that such Confidential Information will be afforded confidential treatment.

9.5. Nondisclosure. Each Party (each a “Receiving Party”) agrees that it (i) will use and reproduce the Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) only for purposes of exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement and only to the extent necessary for such purposes, (ii) will restrict disclosure of such Confidential Information to the Receiving Party’s employees, consultants, or advisors who have a bona fide need to know for such purposes, and (iii) will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party. The foregoing obligations will be satisfied by the Receiving Party through the exercise of at least the same degree of care used to restrict disclosure and use of its own information of like importance, but not less than reasonable care. All third parties to whom the Receiving Party discloses Confidential Information must be bound in writing by obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least as protective of such information as this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it will not be a breach of this Agreement for the Receiving Party to disclose Confidential Information if compelled to do so under law, in a judicial or other governmental investigation or proceeding, provided that, to the extent permitted by law, the Receiving Party has given the Disclosing Party prior notice and reasonable assistance to permit the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to object to and/or limit the judicial or governmental requirement to disclosure.

9.6. Remedies. The Receiving Party agrees that a breach of this Section 9 may result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party that money damages alone may be inadequate to compensate. Therefore, in the event of such a breach, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including but not limited to a temporary restraining order, temporary injunction or permanent injunction without the posting of a bond or other security.

10. LIMITATION ON DAMAGES.

10.1. EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

10.2. CAP ON MONETARY LIABILITY. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN SECTION 10.3, IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER, UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY AND OTHERWISE, EXCEED ONE TIMES (1X) THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER TO COMPANY FOR SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER ARE BASED IN PART ON THESE LIMITATIONS. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THESE LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.

10.3. Exceptions. The exclusions and limitations in Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 do not apply to (i) a Party’s breach of its confidentiality obligations under Section 9, or (ii) any liability for a Party’s fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

11. INDEMNIFICATION.

11.1. Company Indemnification. Company will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer and Customer’s Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Customer Indemnitee arising out of or relating to any claim, suit, action, or proceeding (each, an “Action“) by a third party (other than an Affiliate of a Customer Indemnitee) to the extent that such Losses arise from any allegation in such Action relating to: (i) Company’s material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Agreement; (ii) gross negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by Company in connection with this Agreement; or (iii) the Platform or the Services infringement a third party’s Intellectual Property Right. The foregoing obligation does not apply to any Action or Losses to the extent it arises out of:

(a) access to the Platform or use of the Services in combination with any hardware, system, software, network, or other materials or service not provided or authorized in writing by Company;

(b) modification of the Services other than by or on behalf of Company or with Company’s written approval in accordance with the Specification;

(c) failure to timely implement any modifications, upgrades, replacements, or enhancements made available to Customer at no cost by or on behalf of Company; or

(d) act, omission, or other matter described in Section 11.1(a), Section 11.1(b), or Section 11.1(c), whether or not it results in any Action against or Losses by any Company Indemnitee.

11.2. Customer Indemnification. Customer will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company and its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (each, a “Company Indemnitee“) from and against any and all Losses incurred by a Company Indemnitee in connection with any Action by a third party (other than an Affiliate of a Company Indemnitee) to the extent that such Losses arise out of or relate to any:

(i) allegation that Customer Data or any other materials, information documents, Data, software, content, or technology provided by or on behalf of Customer or any Authorized User infringe a third party’s Intellectual Property Right;

(ii) allegation of facts that, if true, would constitute Customer’s breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Agreement; or

(iii) gross negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by Customer, any Authorized User, or any third party on behalf of Customer or any Authorized User, in connection with this Agreement.

11.3. Indemnification Procedure. Each Party will promptly notify the other Party in writing of any Action for which such Party believes it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2, as the case may be. The Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee“) will cooperate with the other Party (the “Indemnitor“) at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitor will immediately take control of the defense and investigation of such Action and will employ counsel of its choice to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee’s failure to perform any obligations under this Section 11.3 will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations under this Section 11 except to the extent that the Indemnitor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnitee may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing.

11.4. Mitigation. If the Platform or Services are, or in Company’s opinion are likely to be, claimed to infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate any third-party Intellectual Property Right, or if Customer’s or any Authorized User’s use of the Platform or Services is enjoined or threatened to be enjoined, Company may, at its option and sole cost and expense:

(i) obtain the right for Customer to continue to use the Platform and Services as contemplated by this Agreement;

(ii) modify or replace the Platform and Services, in whole or in part, to make the Platform and Services (as so modified or replaced) non-infringing, while providing equivalent features and functionality, in which case such modifications or replacements will constitute the Platform and Services, as applicable, under this Agreement; or

(iii) by written notice to Customer, terminate this Agreement and require Customer to immediately cease any use of the Platform and Services or any specified part or feature thereof, provided Customer will be entitled to a refund of any pre-paid but unused Fees.

11.5. Sole Remedy. THIS SECTION 11 SETS FORTH CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDIES AND COMPANY’S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED, OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE PLATFORM, OR ANY SERVICE INFRINGES, MISAPPROPRIATES, OR OTHERWISE VIOLATES ANY THIRD–PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT.

13.10. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.
