  1. INDEMNIFICATION
  1.   By Company.  Company will defend Customer from and against any claim by a third party alleging that the SaaS Service when used as authorized under this Agreement infringes any trademark or copyright of such third party, enforceable in the jurisdiction of Customer’s use of the SaaS Service, or misappropriates a trade secret (but only to the extent that such misappropriation is not a result of Customer’s actions) (“Infringement Claim”) and will indemnify and hold harmless Customer from and against any damages and costs awarded against Customer by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed in settlement by Company (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from such Infringement Claim.  Company will have no obligation and assumes no liability under this Section 9 or otherwise with respect to any claim based on: (a) the SaaS Services’ having been modified by any party other than Company, but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is caused by such modification; (2) the SaaS Service’s having been combined, operated or used with any Customer Data or any Customer or third party products, services, hardware, data, content, or business processes not provided by Company where there would be no Infringement Claim but for such combination; (3) any action arising as a result of Customer Data or any third-party deliverables or components contained within the SaaS Service; (4) if Customer settles or makes any admissions with respect to a claim without Company’s prior written consent; or (5) to any use provided on a no-charge or evaluation basis.  THIS SECTION 9 SETS FORTH COMPANY’S SOLE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT.
  1.   Remedies.  If Customer’s use of the SaaS Service is (or in Company’s opinion is likely to be) enjoined, if required by settlement or if Company determines such actions are reasonably necessary to avoid material liability, Company may, at its option: (i) procure for Customer the right to use the SaaS Service in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) replace or modify, the SaaS Service to make it non-infringing; or (iii) terminate Customer’s right to use the SaaS Service and discontinue the related Support Services, refund prorated pre-paid fees for the remainder of the applicable Subscription Term for the SaaS Service.
  1.   By Customer.  Customer will defend, indemnify and hold Company harmless from and against any third-party claims, damages, and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Company) arising out of or relating to Company’s actions or failures to act under this Agreement.
  1.   Indemnity Process.  Each Party’s indemnification obligations are conditioned on the indemnified Party: (a) promptly giving written notice of the claim to the indemnifying Party; (b) giving the indemnifying Party sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim; and (c) providing to the indemnifying Party all available information and assistance in connection with the claim, at the indemnifying Party’s request and expense.  The indemnified Party may participate in the defense of the claim, at the indemnified Party’s sole expense (not subject to reimbursement).  Neither Party may admit liability for or consent to any judgment or concede or settle or compromise any claim unless such admission, concession, settlement, or compromise includes a full and unconditional release of the other Party from all liabilities in respect of such claim.
  1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
  1.   Obligations.  Each Party (as “Receiving Party”) agrees that all information not generally available to the public that should reasonably be recognized as the confidential and proprietary information of the Receiving Party – including, but not limited to, code, inventions, know-how, business, personal data, technical and financial information – (collectively, “Confidential Information”) it obtains from the disclosing party (“Disclosing Party”) constitute the confidential property of the Disclosing Party.  Except as expressly authorized herein, the Receiving Party will (a) hold in confidence and not disclose any Confidential Information to third parties during the pendency of this Agreement and for a period of five years thereafter (except with respect to Confidential Information that qualifies for trade secret protection under applicable law, which will be held in confidence and not disclosed for so long as it remains entitled to such protection) and (b) not use Confidential Information for any purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under this Agreement.  The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors, and other representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided that such representatives are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective of the Disclosing Party than those contained herein and that the Receiving Party remains responsible for compliance by any such representative.  The Receiving Party’s confidentiality obligations will not apply to information that the Receiving Party can document: (w) was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information; (x) is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party; (y) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (z) is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party without use of or reference to such information.  The Receiving Party may make disclosures to the extent required by law or court order, provided the Receiving Party promptly notifies the Disclosing Party in advance and cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment.  The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.
