  7. Indemnification. 

    1. Customer Indemnification. AHGO shall hold Customer harmless from third party claims to the extent alleging (a) infringement by the Services of any United States property right, except where such infringement is alleged to result from a change to the Services made by Customer or the misuse of the Services by Customer, or (b) Customer’s violation of Applicable Law.

    2. AHGO Indemnification. Customer shall hold AHGO harmless from third party claims to the extent alleging (a) infringement by the Customer Content of any United States intellectual property right, except where such infringement is alleged to result from a change to the Customer Content made by AHGO or the misuse of the Customer Content by AHGO, or (b) AHGO’s violation of Applicable Law.

    3. Procedure. The indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any third-party claim for which the indemnifying party may have obligations under this Section; provided, however, that any failure of the indemnified party to provide prompt written notice pursuant to this Section 9 shall excuse the indemnifying party only to the extent that it is prejudiced thereby.  The indemnified party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s sole expense, with regard to the defense of any claim.  The indemnifying party shall have full control of any such claim and the authority to settle or otherwise dispose of any suit or threatened suit.  In no event, however, may the indemnifying party agree to any settlement of any claim for which it has agreed to provide indemnification under this Agreement if such settlement would impose any liability or obligation upon the indemnified party, without the indemnified party’s prior, written consent.

EXCEPT AS STATED BELOW, IN NO EVENT SHALL AHGO’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE FEES PAID AND/OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER TO AHGO UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE SERVICES AT ISSUE DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

    2. Exceptions. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION
      SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

  9. Confidentiality

    1. Treatment of Confidential Information. Each party acknowledges that in the course of this Agreement it may be entrusted with information from the other and agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality thereof. “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by one party (“disclosing party”) to the other party (“receiving party”), before or after the date of this Agreement, and generally not publicly known, whether tangible or intangible and in whatever form or medium provided, as well as any information generated by the receiving party to the extent that it contains, reflects, or is derived from Confidential Information. Confidential Information of AHGO includes, without limitation, the Software and Documentation. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are Confidential Information; however, the existence of this Agreement is not Confidential Information. The receiving party shall retain the Confidential Information of the disclosing party in confidence and shall use and disclose it solely for the purpose of, and in accordance with, this Agreement. The receiving party shall only disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party to those of its employees with a need to know such Confidential Information and who have been informed of the obligations of confidence and have agreed in writing to preserve the confidentiality of such information under terms and conditions no less restrictive than those set forth herein. The receiving party shall use the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature, but no less than reasonable care, including, without limitation, securing all servers, drives or media on which the Confidential Information, Software and Documentation are installed or maintained to prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information. For avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Agreement and the fees identified in a schedule or Order are Confidential Information.

    2. Exclusions. The receiving party shall not be bound by any obligations restricting disclosure and use set forth in this Agreement with respect to Confidential Information, or any part thereof, which; (i) was lawfully known to the receiving party prior to disclosure; (ii) was lawfully in the public domain prior to its disclosure, or becomes publicly available other than through a breach of this Agreement; (iii) was disclosed to the receiving party by a third-party, provided that such third-party is not in breach of any confidentiality obligation in respect of such information; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party.

    3. Required Disclosure. If the receiving party is compelled pursuant to legal, judicial, or administrative proceedings, or otherwise required by law, to disclose Confidential Information, the receiving party shall use reasonable efforts to (i) seek confidential treatment for such Confidential Information, and (ii) provide prior notice to the disclosing party to allow the disclosing party to seek protective or other court orders.

  10. Term and Termination

    2.     10.2.Termination.

Termination shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay any amounts due upon the date of termination.

    3.     10.3.Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement or expiration of a Subscription Term, AHGO shall cease providing the Services to Customer. Upon termination, Customer shall immediately pay all amounts due to AHGO.

  11. General

    1.     11.1.Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be invalid, ineffective, or unenforceable, under present or future laws, the remainder of the provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

    4.     11.4.Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the schedules or exhibits attached hereto or incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, communications and understandings of any nature whatsoever, oral or written including any shrink wrap license included with the Software.

    5.     11.5.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles, with jurisdiction in the state and federal courts in New York, New York.

    6.     11.6.Force Majeure. Each party will be excused from performance for any period during which, and to the extent that, it is prevented from performing any obligation or service as a result of causes beyond its reasonable control, and without its fault or negligence, including without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, communication line failures, and power failures. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to relieve Customer or its Affiliates of its obligation to pay fees owed under this Agreement.
