7. Indemnity

7.1 Indemnification by Licensor. Subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Section 7, at its expense, Licensor will defend and hold harmless Licensee against any third party claim (which, for purposes of this Agreement, is a claim brought by a party that is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement) (“Third Party Claim”) brought against Licensee arising from (a) an allegation that the Software (excluding any Third Party Software) infringes or misappropriates such third party’s Intellectual Property Rights (“Infringement Claim”), or (b) Licensor’s use of Licensee Data, 3P Software Updates, or Licensee Content in breach of this Agreement, and indemnify Licensee from the resulting costs and damages awarded against Licensee to the third party raising such Third Party Claim by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to in settlement. If the Software is subject to an Infringement Claim and as a result, Licensee’s use of the Software is enjoined, then Licensor will, at no cost to Licensee, procure for Licensee the right to continue using the Software or replace the Software with a non-infringing or modified Software of materially equivalent functionality. If none of the foregoing options are available on terms that are commercially reasonable for Licensor, then Licensor may terminate Licensee’s right to access and use the Software subject to the Infringement Claim, and Licensor will refund Licensee any prepaid license fees applicable to such Software for the unused portion of such Software’s Subscription Term, prorated from the effective date of termination. Licensor’s obligations under this Section 7 with respect to any Third Party Claims will be comparatively reduced to the extent the Third Party Claim results from: (i) any modification made to a Software by Licensee, its Users, or a party other than Licensor (or Licensor’s contractors) if the Third Party Claim would have been avoided in the absence of such modification; (ii) the combination of a Software with other products not originally embodied in the Software as delivered by Licensor if such infringement would have been avoided by not combining with such products; (iv) Licensee’s use of the Software in breach of this Agreement; or (v) Licensee’s negligence or willful misconduct.

7.2 Indemnification by Licensee. Subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Section 7, at its expense, Licensee will defend and hold harmless Licensor against any Third Party Claim brought against Licensor arising from (a) an allegation that all or any part of the Licensee Data, or Licensee Content infringes, misappropriates, or violates the intellectual property, privacy, or other proprietary or legal right of such third party, (b) an allegation that Licensor’s use of 3P Software Updates for Licensee’s benefit infringes, misappropriates, or violates the intellectual property, privacy, or other proprietary or legal right of such third party, or Licensee’s use of the Software in breach of this Agreement, and indemnify Licensor from the resulting costs and damages awarded against Licensor to the third party raising such Third Party Claim by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to in settlement. Licensee’s obligations under this Section 7.2 with respect to any Third Party Claims will be comparatively reduced to the extent the Third Party Claim results from: (i) Licensor’s use of Licensee Data, 3P Software Updates, or Licensee Content in breach of this Agreement; or (ii) Licensor’s negligence or willful misconduct.

7.3 Process for Tendering Claims. The obligations of a party (“Indemnitor”) to defend and indemnify the other (“Indemnitee”) under this Agreement are subject to the following: (a) Indemnitee must promptly inform Indemnitor in writing of any Third Party Claim within the scope of Indemnitor’s defense or indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement, provided that Indemnitor will not be excused from its indemnity obligations for failure to provide prompt notice except to the extent that Indemnitor is prejudiced by any such failure to provide prompt notice; (b) Indemnitor will be given exclusive control of the defense of such Third Party Claim and all negotiations relating to the settlement thereof (except that Indemnitor may not make any admissions on Indemnitee’s behalf or settle any such Third Party Claim unless the settlement unconditionally releases Indemnitee of all liability); and (c) Indemnitee must reasonably assist Indemnitor in all necessary respects in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim at Indemnitor’s expense. Indemnitor’s obligations under this Section 7 (Indemnity) will be limited to the extent to which a court of final jurisdiction finds that Indemnitee contributed to the Third Party Claim. If Indemnitee elects to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim that Indemnitor is defending per this Section 7, then such defense shall be at Indemnitee’s sole cost and expense. Unless otherwise provided in Section 14 (Software-Specific License terms), this Section 7 states Indemnitor’s sole liability, and Indemnitee’s exclusive remedy, with respect to the type of Third Party Claims described in this Agreement.

8. LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS OF LIABILITY

8.3 LICENSOR EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE OR OPERATION OF ANY THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

8.4 These exclusions and limitations of liability apply regardless of whether a party has been advised of the possibility of such damages, and regardless of whether a remedy fails its essential purpose.

The parties may renew any Software Schedule by mutual written agreement prior to its expiration.

10.2 Termination for Cause.

The foregoing obligations will not restrict the Receiving Party from disclosing Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party: (a) pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided that the Receiving Party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the Disclosing Party prior to such disclosure; and (b) on a confidential basis to its legal and financial advisors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensor will be permitted to incorporate Licensee Data as part of aggregated, anonymous or anonymized data sets (that do not include any personally-identifiable information or any information capable of being used (by itself or in combination with other information, whether or not included in such data sets) to identify Licensee or any of its officers, directors, employees or contractors), for market research, academic research, benchmarking or other similar purposes.
