1. During the Term and indefinitely thereafter, the recipient agrees that it will use the same degree of care it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind, (but not less than reasonable care) to: (a) not disclose or otherwise make available Confidential Information of the disclosing party to any third party without the prior written consent of the disclosing party, provided that the recipient may disclose the Confidential Information of the disclosing party to its, and its affiliates’, officers, employees, consultants and legal advisors who have a “need to know,” who have been apprised of this restriction and who are themselves bound by nondisclosure obligations at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 10; and (b) use the Confidential Information of the disclosing party only as reasonably necessary to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.

If the use of said item is, or is likely to be, enjoined as a result of a Claim, Company, at no expense to Customer, may obtain for Customer the right to use said item or substitute an equivalent item acceptable to Customer and extend this infringement indemnity thereto. If neither of the foregoing alternatives is commercially reasonable in Company’s judgement, Company may terminate this Agreement, and upon return of the allegedly infringing Deliverables, shall refund a pro-rated amount of the fees paid for the term or quarter. This Section sets forth Customer’s exclusive remedy and Company’s sole obligation with respect to any third party claims of infringement or misappropriation.

1. Indemnification Procedures. The party seeking indemnification hereunder will promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of a claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder and cooperate with the indemnifying party at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense.

The indemnifying party will not settle any claim hereunder in a manner that adversely affects the rights of the indemnified party without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnified party’s failure to perform any obligations under this Section 11(b)will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 11 except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The indemnified party may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense.

1. In the event the Indemnifying Party materially breaches its indemnification obligations in accordance with this Section 11, fails to promptly indemnify and defend such Claims and/or pay the indemnified Party’s expenses as provided in this Section, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all of its reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and damages incurred in settling or defending such Claims.

1. Injunctive Relief. The Parties agree that the disclosure of Confidential Information or other breach could cause irreparable harm and that the amount of which would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, it is understood and agreed that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for such breach and that specific performance and injunctive relief shall be appropriate remedies for such breach or any threat of such breach, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit either Party’s right to seek such relief.

1. Limitation of Liability.

1. Exclusion of Certain Damages.
