B. Additional Terms & Modifications:
The following additions to or modifications of the Standard Terms are incorporated into this Agreement:
(i) The following Section is added as Section 1.4:
10.4 Reseller Orders. This Section applies if the Product is purchased by Buyer through an authorized reseller of Licensor (“Reseller”).
(a) Commercial Terms. Instead of paying Licensor, Buyer will pay applicable amounts to the Reseller as agreed between Buyer and the Reseller. Buyer’s order details (e.g., license units and fees) will be as stated in the order placed by the Reseller with Licensor on Buyer’s behalf (which, for the purposes of this Agreement will be considered an “Product Listing” solely for the purposes of fees, Product usage scope, and Services description). The Reseller is responsible for the accuracy of such order. Licensor may terminate Buyer’s rights to use the Product if it does not receive the corresponding payment from the Reseller. If Buyer is entitled to a refund under this Agreement, Licensor will refund any applicable fees to the Reseller and the Reseller will be solely responsible for refunding the appropriate amounts to Buyer, unless otherwise specified.
(b) Relationship with Licensor. This Agreement is directly between Licensor and Buyer and governs all use of the Product by Buyer. Resellers are not authorized to modify this Agreement or make any promises or commitments on Licensor’s behalf, and Licensor is not bound by any obligations to Buyer other than as set forth in this Agreement. Licensor is not party to (or responsible under) any separate agreement between Buyer and the Reseller and is not responsible for the Reseller’s acts, omissions, products, or services.
(ii) The following is added as Section 1.5:
1.5 Fees.
1.5.1 Payment. Buyer will pay the fees described in the Product Listing. Unless the Product Listing states otherwise, all amounts are due within 30 days after the invoice date (the “Payment Period”). Late payments are subject to a charge of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, whichever is less. All fees and expenses are nonrefundable except as expressly set out in this Agreement.
1.5.2 Taxes. Buyer is responsible for any sales, use, GST, value-added, withholding or similar taxes or levies that apply to its Product Listing, whether domestic or foreign (“Taxes”), other than Licensor’s income tax. Fees and expenses are exclusive of Taxes.
1.5.3 Payment Disputes. If Buyer disputes an invoice in good faith, it will notify Licensor within the Payment Period and the parties will seek to resolve the dispute over a 15-day discussion period. Buyer is not required to pay disputed amounts during the discussion period, but will timely pay all undisputed amounts. After the discussion period, either party may pursue any available remedies.
1.5.4 Overages. If Buyer is on track to exceed the capacity set forth in an Product Listing on a three-month rolling average, Buyer will either reduce usage or order additional capacity at pricing equivalent to the unit cost of the applicable Product Listing. If Buyer does neither within 30 days of such overage and is not working with Licensor in good faith, Licensor may invoice Buyer (and Buyer shall pay, in accordance with the Agreement) for such increased capacity at then current list prices, prorated for the remainder of the then applicable Subscription term. Any such additional capacity, and corresponding fees, shall apply for the remainder of the then-applicable Subscription term and any subsequent renewal.
(iii) Section 6.4 is removed.
(iv) The following is added at the end of the current Section 7.1.2: “As Buyer may configure the Product to redact Highly Sensitive Information from Buyer Data prior to such data leaving Buyer’s possession, the parties agree that no Highly Sensitive Information will be disclosed by Buyer.”
(v) The following is added as a second sentence to Section 10.1: “Each Subscription term will renew for successive periods (with the same length, usage limits and fees) unless (a) the parties agree on a different renewal Product Listing or (b) either party notifies the other of non-renewal at least 45 days prior to the end of the current Subscription term.”
(vi) Section 11 is replaced in its entirety with the following: “Each party will, at its expense, maintain commercially reasonable insurance coverage during the Subscription term, evidenced by a certificate of insurance, which the other party may request once per year.”
(vii) The following replaces Section 12.11:
12.11. Publicity. Unless otherwise set forth in a Product Listing, Licensor may use Buyer’s name or logo on its website and in marketing materials to identify Buyer as a customer, subject to any usage guidelines Buyer provides Licensor. Licensor will remove any reference to Buyer upon request.

1. Scope.
1.1 Terms and Conditions. This Standard Contract for AWS Marketplace (the “Standard Contract”) sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the licensing of Product from the licensor (“Licensor”) by the Party (defined below) subscribing to the Product (“Buyer”), whether deployed into Buyer’s Computing Environment and/or made available as SaaS Service from Licensor’s Computing Environment. This Standard Contract only applies if the Product is expressly offered pursuant to the Standard Contract. The offer of Product pursuant to this Standard Contract, and Buyer’s purchase of the corresponding Subscription, constitutes each Party’s respective acceptance of this Standard Contract and their entry into this Agreement (defined below), and this Agreement will become effective on the date of Buyer’s purchase of the corresponding Subscription. Unless defined elsewhere in this Standard Contract, terms in initial capital letters have the meanings set forth in Section 13. Buyer and Licensor may be referred to collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party”.
1.2 Product Subscription. Licensor will fulfill the Subscription to Buyer. A Subscription, as described in the applicable Product Listing and the corresponding purchase transaction, may be for Product deployed in Buyer’s Computing Environment and/or Product deployed via SaaS Service through Licensor’s Computing Environment. The pricing and term of the Subscription (if not on demand) are set forth in the Product Listing. Additional information concerning the Product and included services that are included or referenced in the Product Listing are a part of the Product Listing; such information may include but is not limited to: intended geographic use of the Product, any technical requirements for use of the Product, Support Services (which may vary by geography), information regarding Open Source Software and a description of Licensor’s security practices.
1.3 Agreement. Each Subscription is subject to and governed by this Standard Contract, the applicable Product Listing, the terms and conditions of the NDA (if any and as defined in Section 6.4), the Privacy and Security Terms for SaaS Service Subscriptions, and any amendments to any of the foregoing as may be agreed upon by the Parties in accordance with Section 12.3, which together constitute the entire agreement between Buyer and Licensor (the “Agreement”). Each Subscription is a separate agreement between Buyer and Licensor. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of the various components of this Agreement, the following order of precedence will apply: (a) any amendment agreed upon by the Parties; (b) the Privacy and Security Terms for SaaS Service Subscriptions; (c) the NDA (if any); (d) the Product Listing; and (e) this Standard Contract.
2. Licenses.

2.1.4 Buyer may make a reasonable number of copies of the Documentation as necessary to use such Product in accordance with the rights granted under this Agreement, provided that Buyer includes all proprietary legends and other notices on all copies.

The performance of any act or omission under this Agreement by an Affiliate or a Contractor for, by or through Buyer will be deemed the act or omission of Buyer.
2.3 Restrictions.

2.4 Open Source Software. Subject to the requirements of Section 5.1(d), Product may contain or be provided with Open Source Software. If Buyer’s use of the Product subjects Buyer to the terms of any license governing the use of Open Source Software, then information identifying such Open Source Software and the applicable license shall be incorporated or referenced in the Product Listing or Documentation. The terms of this Agreement apply to Open Source Software (i) to the extent not prohibited by the license to which the Open Source Software is subject, including without limitation, warranties and indemnification, and (ii) except to the extent required by the license to which the Open Source Software is subject, in which case the terms of such license will apply in lieu of the terms of this Agreement only with respect to such Open Source Software, and not to the entire Product, including without limitation, any provisions governing attribution, access to source code, modification and reverse-engineering.
2.5 No Additional Terms. No shrink-wrap, click-acceptance or other terms and conditions outside this Agreement provided with any Licensed Materials or any part thereof (“Additional Terms”) will be binding on Buyer or its Users, even if use of the Licensed Materials, or any part thereof, requires an affirmative “acceptance” of such Additional Terms before access to or use of the Licensed Materials, or any part thereof, is permitted. All such Additional Terms will be of no force or effect and will be deemed rejected by Buyer in their entirety. For clarity, the Product Listing and or Documentation are not Additional Terms subject to this Section.
2.6 High-Risk Activities. The Product is not designed or developed for use in highrisk, hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, including without limitation in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or control systems, air traffic control, or weapons systems, or any other application in which the failure of the Product could lead to severe physical or environmental damages (“High Risk Activities”). Buyer will not use the Product for any High Risk Activities.

4.1 Licensed Materials. Subject to the licenses granted herein, Licensor will retain all right, title and interest it may have in and to the Licensed Materials, including all Proprietary Rights therein. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed or interpreted as granting to Buyer any rights of ownership or any other proprietary rights in or to the Licensed Materials or any Proprietary Rights therein.
4.2 Feedback. Buyer may, at its option, provide suggestions, ideas, enhancement requests, recommendations or feedback regarding the Licensed Materials or Support Services (“Feedback”), provided however, that Feedback does not include any Proprietary Rights of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates or any Buyer Data or Buyer Materials. Licensor may use and incorporate Feedback in Licensor’s products and services without compensation or accounting to Buyer, provided that neither Licensor nor its use of the Feedback identifies Buyer as the source of such Feedback. Feedback is not confidential to Buyer. Buyer will have no obligation to provide Feedback, and all Feedback is provided by Buyer “as is” and without warranty of any
kind.

If Licensor does not correct the Product or re-perform the Services to conform to the warranties within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days (or such other period as may be agreed upon by the Parties) (the “Cure Period”), as Buyer’s sole remedy and Licensor’s exclusive liability (except as provided in Section 9), Buyer may for a period of 30 days following the conclusion of the Cure Period (or such other period as may be agreed upon by the Parties), elect to terminate the Subscription and this Agreement without further liability and Licensor will provide Buyer with a refund of any fees prepaid to Licensor by Buyer, prorated for the portion of the Subscription unused at the time Buyer reported the breach of warranty to Licensor, as well as, if applicable, any service credits available under Licensor’s Support Services or other policies.
5.4 Warranty Exclusions.

LICENSOR DOES NOT WARRANT: (A) THAT THE LICENSED MATERIALS WILL MEET BUYER’S REQUIREMENTS; OR (B) THAT THE OPERATION OF THE PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE.
6. Confidentiality.
6.1 Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any nonpublic information directly or indirectly disclosed by either Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) or accessible to the Receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated as confidential or that, given the nature of the information or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure, reasonably should be considered as confidential, including without limitation technical data, trade secrets, know-how, research, inventions, processes, designs, drawings, strategic roadmaps, product plans, product designs and architecture, security information, marketing plans, pricing and cost information, marketing and promotional activities, business plans, customer and supplier information, employee and User information, business and marketing plans, and business processes, and other technical, financial or business information, and any third party information that the Disclosing Party is required to maintain as confidential. Confidential Information will not, however, include any information which: (a) was publicly known or made generally available to the public prior to the time of disclosure; (b) becomes publicly known or made generally available after disclosure through no fault of the Receiving Party; (c) is in the possession of the Receiving Party, without restriction as to use or disclosure, at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (d) was lawfully received, without restriction as to use or disclosure, from a third party (who does not have an obligation of confidentiality or restriction on use itself); or (e) is developed by the Receiving Party independently from this Agreement and without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information or Proprietary Rights. Except for rights expressly granted in this Agreement, each Party reserves all rights in and to its Confidential Information. The Parties agree that the Licensed Materials are Confidential Information of Licensor.
6.2 Obligations. The Parties will maintain as confidential and will avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of Confidential Information of the other Party using reasonable precautions. Each Party will protect such Confidential Information with the same degree of care that a prudent person would exercise to protect its own confidential information of a like nature, and to prevent the unauthorized, negligent, or inadvertent use, disclosure, or publication thereof or access thereto. Each Party will restrict Confidential Information to individuals who need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound to confidentiality obligations at least as protective as the restrictions described in this Section 6. Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, neither Party will use Confidential Information of the other Party for any purpose except in fulfilling its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement or as necessary for proper use of the Product. Each Party will promptly notify the other Party if it becomes aware of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information, and reasonably cooperate with the other Party in attempts to limit disclosure.
6.3 Compelled Disclosure. If and to the extent required by applicable Law, including regulatory requirements, discovery request, subpoena, court order or governmental action, the Receiving Party may disclose or produce Confidential Information but will give reasonable prior notice (and where prior notice is not permitted by applicable Law, notice will be given as soon as the Receiving Party is legally permitted) to the Disclosing Party to permit the Disclosing Party to intervene and to request protective orders or confidential treatment therefor or other appropriate remedy regarding such disclosure. Disclosure of any Confidential Information pursuant to any legal requirement will not be deemed to render it non-confidential, and the Receiving Party’s obligations with respect to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party will not be changed or lessened by virtue of any such disclosure. Notwithstanding any provisions herein, if Buyer is a Government Entity, Buyer will comply with all Laws applicable to it with respect to disclosure of public information.
6.4 NDA. Buyer and Licensor may agree to a separate nondisclosure agreement between Buyer and Licensor (or the respective Affiliates of Buyer and Licensor) (“NDA”) that applies to disclosures occurring during the term of the Subscription, in which case the terms and conditions thereof are incorporated herein by reference and will apply instead of subsections 6.1 through 6.3 of this Section 6.
7. Additional SaaS Service Obligations and Responsibilities. This Section 7 applies to Subscriptions for Product, or a component of a Product, deployed via SaaS Service only.
7.1 Acceptable Use; Restrictions on Sensitive Information.
7.1.1 Buyer will not intentionally use the Product, component or SaaS Service to: (a) store, download or transmit infringing or illegal content, or any viruses, “Trojan horses” or other harmful code; (b) engage in phishing, spamming, denial-of-service attacks or fraudulent or illegal activity; (c) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Product, component or data contained therein or on Licensor’s system or network or circumvent the security features of the Product; or (d) perform penetration testing, vulnerability testing or other security testing on the Product, component or Licensor’s systems or networks or otherwise attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Product or Licensor’s systems or networks.
7.1.2 Buyer will not use the SaaS Services to store or process Highly Sensitive Information unless Licensor specifically purchases a SaaS Service Subscription designed to be used with Highly Sensitive Information. “Highly Sensitive Information” means, for purposes of this Agreement: (1) “special categories of personal data,” “sensitive personal information,” or “Sensitive Personal Data,” as defined under applicable Data Protection Law, including European Union Regulation 2016/679, Article 9(1) or any successor legislation; (2) patient, medical, or other protected health information regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (as amended and supplemented) (“HIPAA”); or (3) other information subject to additional protections or regulation under specific laws such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act or Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (or related rules or regulations). Supplier shall have no responsibility for Highly Sensitive Information where the SaaS Service is not approved by Licensor to be used with Highly Sensitive Information.
7.1.3 Licensor may suspend Buyer’s or a User’s right to access or use any portion or all of the SaaS Service immediately upon notice to Buyer (a) if Licensor, after reasonable due diligence given the nature and severity of the issue, reasonably determines that: (i) Buyer or a User’s use of the SaaS Service poses a material risk to the security or operation of licensor’s systems, the SaaS Service or the systems or data of any other customer, or (ii) Buyer or a User’s use of the SaaS Service violates this Section 7.1 or is illegal or fraudulent; (b) if Buyer fails to pay any undisputed amounts within 30 days after notice of past due amounts; or (c) if Buyer uses a SaaS Service Subscription to store or process Highly Sensitive Information if such SaaS Service is not approved by Licensor to be used with Highly Sensitive Information. To the extent reasonably practicable, Licensor will limit the suspension of the SaaS Service pursuant to subsection (a) as needed to mitigate the applicable risk. Licensor will promptly restore the SaaS Service to Buyer upon resolution of the issue and/or payment of the outstanding amounts
(as applicable).
7.2 Buyer Data and Buyer Materials.
7.2.1 Buyer is and will continue to be the sole and exclusive owner of all Buyer Materials, Buyer Data and other Confidential Information of Buyer, including all Proprietary Rights therein. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed or interpreted as granting to Licensor any rights of ownership or any other proprietary rights in or to the Buyer Data and Buyer Materials.
7.2.2 Buyer represents and warrants to Licensor that it has or will obtain all necessary consents, authorizations and rights and provide all necessary notices and disclosures in order to provide Buyer Data to Licensor and for Licensor to use Buyer Data in the performance of its obligations in accordance with the terms and condition of this Agreement, including any access or transmission to third parties with whom Buyer shares or permits access to Buyer Data.
7.2.3 The Parties agree that Buyer Data and Buyer Materials are Confidential Information of Buyer. Buyer hereby grants to Licensor a nonexclusive, nontransferable (except in connection with an assignment permitted under Section 12.2), revocable license, under all Proprietary Rights, to reproduce and use Buyer Materials and Buyer Data solely for the purpose of, and to the extent necessary for, performing Licensor’s obligations under this Agreement. In no event will Licensor access, use or disclose to any third party any Buyer Data or any Buyer Materials for any purpose whatsoever other than as necessary for the purpose of providing the Product and Services to Buyer and performing its obligations under this Agreement. Licensor will not aggregate, anonymize or create any data derivatives of Buyer Data other than as necessary to provide the Product or Services and to perform its obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
7.2.4 Buyer will have full access to, and has the right to review and retain, the entirety of Buyer Data contained in the Product. At no time will any computer or electronic records containing Buyer Data be stored or held in a form or manner not readily accessible to Buyer through the ordinary operation of the Product, except for backups of Buyer Data stored and/or maintained at Buyer’s direction or in accordance with the Documentation and Privacy and Security Terms. Licensor will provide to Buyer all passwords, codes, comments, Keys and other documentation necessary for such access and use of the Product, and Buyer will be entitled to delete, or have Licensor delete, Buyer Data as expressly specified by Buyer.
7.3 System Data. To the extent that System Data identifies or permits, alone or in conjunction with other data, identification, association, or correlation of or with Buyer, its Affiliates, Users, customers, suppliers or other persons interacting with any of the foregoing, or any Confidential Information of Buyer or any device as originating through or interacting with Buyer or its Affiliates (“Identifiable System Data”), Licensor may only collect and use Identifiable System Data internally to administer, provide and improve the Product and Services as a generally available service offering, to identify opportunities for Buyer to optimize its use of the Product, including the provision of additional training, and to identify to Buyer complementary uses of Licensor’s other products and services. Licensor will not target any data analysis at, or otherwise use any Identifiable System Data to derive or attempt to derive information regarding, Buyer and its Affiliates, their businesses, operations, finances, users, customers, prospective customers, suppliers or other persons interacting with Buyer and its Affiliates. Licensor will not target any development efforts arising from its use of Identifiable System Data at any person on the basis of the intended recipient’s relationship with Buyer or any of its Affiliates or the intended recipient being in same industry or market as Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Licensor will not use or disclose any Identifiable System Data for any purpose other than as permitted in this Section unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, and will, except for the use permitted in this Section, maintain the confidentiality and security of Identifiable System Data as Confidential Information.
7.4 Use of Other Data. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will restrict: (a) Licensor’s use of System Data or data derived from System Data that does not identify or permit, alone or in conjunction with other data, identification, association, or correlation of or with (i) Buyer, its Affiliates, Users, customers, suppliers or other persons interacting with Buyer and its Affiliates or any Confidential Information of Buyer, or (ii) an device (e.g. computer, mobile telephone, or browser) used to access or use the Product as originating through Buyer or its Affiliates or interacting with Buyer or its Affiliates; or (b) either Party’s use of any data, records, files, content or other information related to any third party that is collected, received, stored or maintained by a Party independently from this Agreement.
7.5 Security; Breach Notification. Licensor will comply with the security practices (if any) incorporated or referenced in the Product Listing and Documentation for the Product, provided however that at all times Licensor will, consistent with industry standard practices, implement and maintain physical, administrative and technical safeguards and other security measures: (a) to maintain the security and confidentiality of Buyer Data; and (b) to maintain the availability and integrity of Buyer Data and to protect Buyer Data from known or reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to its security, including accidental loss, unauthorized use, access, alteration or disclosure.

Unless Licensor and Buyer expressly agree to be bound by other terms and conditions that reflect their respective legal obligations with respect to Personal Data, Licensor and Buyer agree to the terms and conditions of the attached Data Processing Addendum.

Licensor will pay all costs, damages and amounts finally awarded by a court or agreed upon in settlement (as set forth in Section 9.3 below) and any government fines and penalties assessed against or incurred by Buyer in any such Claims.
9.2 Buyer Indemnity. Buyer will, at its expense, defend Licensor and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively “Licensor Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims to the extent arising out of or alleging of any of the following: (a) infringement, misappropriation or violation of any Proprietary Rights by the Buyer Materials or Buyer Data or Licensor’s use thereof as permitted under this Agreement; and (b) any unauthorized or unlawful Processing of Buyer Data by Licensor in the performance of its obligations as permitted under this Agreement resulting from any inaccuracy or breach of Buyer’s representations, warranties, and/or obligations under Section 7.2.2. Buyer will pay all costs, damages and amounts finally awarded by a court or agreed upon in settlement (as set forth in Section 9.3 below) and any government fines and penalties assessed against or incurred by Licensor in any such Claims. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if Buyer is a Government Entity, this Section 9.2 will not apply except as permitted by applicable Law.
9.3 Process. The party(ies) seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 (each, an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) will give the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt notice of each Claim for which it seeks indemnification, provided that failure or delay in providing such notice will not release the Indemnifying Party from any obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified Parties will give the Indemnifying Party their reasonable cooperation in the defense of each Claim for which indemnity is sought, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Parties informed of the status of each Claim. An Indemnified Party may participate in the defense at its own expense. The Indemnifying Party will control the defense or settlement of the Claim, provided that the Indemnifying Party, without the Indemnified Parties’ prior written consent: (a) will not enter into any settlement that; (i) includes any admission of guilt or wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party; (ii) imposes any financial obligations on any Indemnified Party that Indemnified Party is not obligated to pay under this Section 9; (iii) imposes any non-monetary obligations on any Indemnified Party; and (iv) does not include a full and unconditional release of any Indemnified Parties; and (b) will not consent to the entry of judgment, except for a dismissal with prejudice of any Claim settled as described in (a). The Indemnifying Party will ensure that any settlement into which it enters for any Claim is made confidential, except where not permitted by applicable Law.
9.4 Infringement Remedy. In addition to Licensor’s obligations under Section 9.1, if the Product or other Licensed Materials is held, or in Licensor’s opinion is likely to be held, to infringe, misappropriate or violate any Proprietary Rights, or, if based on any claimed infringement, misappropriation or violation of Proprietary Rights, an injunction is obtained, or in Licensor’s opinion an injunction is likely to be obtained, that would prohibit or interfere with Buyer’s use of the Licensed Materials under this Agreement, then Licensor will at its option and expense either: (a) procure for Buyer the right to continue using the affected Licensed Materials in accordance with the license granted under this Agreement; or (b) modify or replace the affected Licensed Materials so that the modified or replacement Licensed Materials are reasonably comparable in functionality, interoperability with other software and systems, and levels of security and performance and do not infringe, misappropriate or violate any third-party Proprietary Rights. If, in such circumstances, Licensor cannot not successfully accomplish any of the foregoing actions on a commercially reasonable basis, Licensor will notify Buyer and either Party may terminate the Subscription and this Agreement, in which case Licensor will refund to Buyer any fees prepaid to Licensor by Buyer prorated for the unused portion of the Subscription. For clarity, Licensor’s indemnification and defense obligations under this Section include infringement Claims based on use of the Licensed Materials by Buyer Indemnified Parties following an initial infringement Claim except that, if Licensor responds to an infringement Claim by accomplishing the solution in (b), Licensor will have no obligation to defend and indemnify Buyer for infringement Claims arising from Buyer’s use after the accomplishment of (b) of the infringing Licensed Materials for which Licensor provided modified or replacement Licensed Materials and a reasonable time to implement the modified or replacement Licensed Materials.
9.5 Security Breach Remedy. In the case of a SaaS Service Subscription, in addition to Licensor’s obligations under Section 9.1, in the event of any Security Incident resulting from breach of Licensor’s obligations under any Privacy and Security Terms or any violation by Licensor of Data Protection Laws, Licensor will pay the government fines and penalties and other out-of-pocket costs incurred by Buyer, to the extent reasonable and documented, for (a) investigating and responding to the Security Incident; (b) legal advice regarding the Security Incident; (c) providing notification to affected individuals, applicable government and relevant industry self-regulatory agencies and the media; (d) providing credit monitoring and/or identity theft services to affected individuals; (e) operating a call center to respond to questions from affected individuals; and (f) any other investigation, mitigation, remediation, or notification required by law or regulators to be undertaken by Buyer in response to such Security Incident.
9.6 Limitations.
9.6.1 Licensor will have no liability or obligation under this Section 9 with respect to any infringement Claim to the extent attributable to any: (a) modifications to the Licensed Materials not provided by Licensor or its Personnel; (b) use of the Product in combination with third-party equipment or software not provided or made accessible by Licensor or not specifically referenced for use with the Licensed Materials by the Product Listing or Documentation; or (c) use of the Licensed Materials by Buyer in breach of this Agreement. Licensor’s liability under this Section 9 with respect to any infringement Claim that is attributable to use of the Product in combination with third-party equipment or software provided or made accessible by Licensor or specifically referenced by the Product Listing or Documentation is limited to Licensor’s proportional share of defense costs and indemnity liability based on the lesser of: (i) the value of the contribution of the Licensed Materials to the total value of the actual or allegedly infringing combination; or (ii) the relative contribution of the Licensed Materials to the actual or allegedly infringed claims (e.g., the Licensed Materials are alleged to satisfy one limitation of a claim with four separate limitations and Licensor would be responsible for a 25% share of the defense and indemnity obligations).
9.6.2 Buyer will have no liability or obligation under this Section 9 with respect to any infringement Claim to the extent attributable to any: (a) modifications to the Buyer Materials or Buyer Data not provided by Buyer or its Personnel; or (b) use of the Buyer Materials or Buyer Data by Licensor in breach of this Agreement.
9.6.3 This Section 9 states the entire liability of Licensor with respect to infringement, misappropriation or violation of Proprietary Rights of third parties by any Licensed Materials or any part thereof or by any use thereof by Buyer, and this Section 9 states the entire liability of Buyer with respect to infringement, misappropriation or violation of Proprietary Rights of third parties by any Buyer Materials, Buyer Data or any part thereof or by any Processing thereof by Licensor.
9.7 Not Limiting. The foregoing indemnities will not be limited in any manner whatsoever by any required or other insurance coverage maintained by a Party.

10.1 Term. This Agreement will continue in full force and effect until conclusion of the Subscription, unless terminated earlier by either Party as provided by this Agreement.
10.2 Termination. Either Party may terminate the Subscription or this Agreement if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement and does not cure the breach within 30 days following its receipt of written notice of the breach from the non-breaching Party. In the case of a SaaS Service Subscription, termination by Licensor pursuant to this Section does not prejudice Buyer’s right, and Licensor’s obligation, to extract or assist with the retrieval or deletion of Buyer Data as set forth in Section 10.3.2 following such termination.
10.3 Effect of Termination.
10.3.1 Upon termination or expiration of the Subscription or this Agreement, Buyer’s right to use the Product licensed under such Subscription will terminate, and Buyer’s access to the Product and Service provided under such Subscription may be disabled and discontinued.

If Buyer retrieves or deletes Buyer Data itself, Licensor will assist Buyer, as reasonably requested by Buyer, in validating whether the retrieval or deletion was successful. Buyer Data must be provided or extractable in a then-current, standard nonproprietary format. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Licensor’s duty to return or enable Buyer’s retrieval or deletion of the Buyer Data pursuant to this Section 10.3.2 may be delayed but will not be discharged due to the occurrence of any Force Majeure Event (defined below). Following delivery to Buyer of the Buyer Data and Buyer’s confirmation thereof, or Buyer’s retrieval or deletion of Buyer Data and Licensor’s validation thereof or expiration of the applicable period, whichever is soonest, Licensor may, and within a reasonable time thereafter will, permanently delete and remove Buyer Data (if any) from its electronic and hard copy records and will, upon Buyer’s request, certify to such deletion and removal to Buyer in writing. If Licensor is not able to delete any portion of the Buyer Data or Buyer Confidential Information, it will remain subject to the confidentiality, privacy and data security terms of this Agreement.
10.3.3 Sections 4 (Proprietary Rights), 6 (Confidentiality), 7.2.1 (Buyer Data and Buyer Materials), 8 (Limitations of Liability), 9 (Indemnification), 10.3 (Effect of Termination), 11 (Insurance), 12 (General), and 13 (Definitions) and any perpetual license granted under this Agreement, together with all other provisions of this Agreement that may reasonably be interpreted or construed as surviving expiration or termination, will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason; but the nonuse and nondisclosure obligations of Section 6 will expire five years following the expiration or termination of this Agreement, except with respect to, and for as long as, any Confidential Information constitutes a trade secret.
11. Insurance.

Upon request by Buyer, Licensor will provide evidence of Licensor’s self-insurance program in a formal declaration (on Licensor’s letterhead, if available) that declares Licensor is self-insured for the type and amount of coverage as described in Section 11.1. Licensor’s declaration may be in the form of a corporate resolution or a certified statement from a corporate officer or an authorized principal of Licensor.

11.3 Certificates and Other Requirements. Prior to execution of this Agreement and annually thereafter during the term, Buyer may request that Licensor furnish to Buyer a certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages set forth above. Licensor’s Commercial General Liability and any umbrella insurance relied upon to meet the obligations in this Section will be primary and non-contributory coverage and the policies will not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations. Licensor’s Commercial General Liability policy will provide a waiver of subrogation in favor of Buyer and its Affiliates. The stipulated limits of coverage above will not be construed as a limitation of any potential liability to Buyer, and failure to request evidence of this insurance will not be construed as a waiver of Licensor’s obligation to provide the insurance coverage specified.
