Sazabi will indemnify and hold harmless, at its own expense, Customer from and against any and all threatened third-party claim, proceeding, or suit (each, a “Claim”), and pay all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, and other expenses (including attorneys’ and expert witnesses’ costs and fees), arising out of or relating to an allegation that the Platform, when used by Customer as authorized herein, infringes or misappropriates a third party’s patents, copyrights or trade secret rights under applicable laws of any jurisdiction within the United States of America. If any portion of the Platform becomes, or in Sazabi’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Sazabi may, at Sazabi’s option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Platform; (b) replace the Platform (or infringing component) with non-infringing software or services which do not materially impair the functionality of the Platform; (c) modify the Platform so that it becomes non-infringing; or (d) terminate this Agreement and refund any unused prepaid fees for the remainder of the term then in effect, and upon such termination, Customer will immediately cease all use of the Platform and other Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sazabi will have no obligation under this Section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon (i) Third-Party Services, Inputs, or Outputs, (ii) any use of the Platform not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation; (iii) any use of the Platform in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Sazabi; or (iv) any modification of the Platform by any person other than Sazabi or its authorized agents. This Section states the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer and the entire liability of Sazabi, or any of the officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors or representatives of the foregoing, for infringement claims and actions.
9.2 By Customer.
Customer will indemnify and hold harmless, at its own expense, Sazabi and its affiliates, employees, directors, and agents from and against any and all Claims, and pay all liabilities, losses, damages costs and other expenses (including attorneys’ and expert witnesses’ costs and fees) arising out of or relating to (a) Customer’s breach or alleged breach of Sections 2.3, 3.1, 3.4, 4.2, and/or 6.2 or (b) Customer’s use of the Inputs and/or Outputs.
9.3 Procedure.
The indemnifying party’s obligations as set forth above are expressly conditioned upon each of the foregoing: (a) the indemnifying party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any threatened or actual claim or suit; (b) the indemnifying party shall have sole control of the defense or settlement of any claim or suit; and (c) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party to facilitate the settlement or defense of any claim or suit. The indemnified party shall not agree to settle any such claim without the indemnifying party’s express prior written consent. The indemnified party may participate in the defense of the Claim at its own expense and with counsel of its own choosing, but the indemnifying party will have sole control over the defense of the Claim.
10. TERM AND TERMINATION.
10.1 Term.
This term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue in full force and effect, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Agreement. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Order Form, the Order Term will continue in full force and effect for one (1) year (“Initial Term”), unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Agreement. Thereafter, the Initial Term will automatically renew for additional terms of one (1) year (each, a “Renewal Term”), unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal to the other party no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term.
10.2 Termination if No Outstanding Orders.
If there are no outstanding Orders, either party may terminate this Agreement for any reason upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other. Neither party may terminate an Order once it has been executed, other than by mutual consent or termination of this Agreement for material breach as set forth below. If Services are not purchased through an Order, Customer may terminate this Agreement immediately upon closing Customer’s account on the Platform or otherwise by providing written notice to Sazabi at support@sazabi.ai. For the avoidance of doubt, Sazabi will not refund Customer any Fees paid in advance of such termination, including any pre-paid Fees.
10.3 Termination for Breach.
Either party may terminate this Agreement or any Order immediately upon notice to the other party if the other party materially breaches this Agreement or the applicable Order, and such breach remains uncured more than thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach.
10.4 Effect of Termination.
Expiration or termination of this Agreement will automatically terminate all active Orders, but termination of a single Order will not result in termination of this Agreement or any other Orders. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement or an Order all rights and licenses granted by Sazabi to Customer under this Agreement or the applicable Order will terminate. Either party’s termination of this Agreement is without prejudice to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity, and does not relieve either party of breaches occurring prior to the effective date of termination. Neither party will be liable to the other for damages arising solely as a result of terminating this Agreement in accordance with its terms.
10.5 Post-Termination Obligations.
Unless Customer terminates this Agreement for material breach, if this Agreement expires or is terminated: (1) Sazabi will not refund Customer any Fees paid in advance of such expiration or termination, including pre-paid Fees; and (2) within ten days after such expiration or termination, Customer shall pay Sazabi all remaining Fees set forth under any terminated Order Forms so that Sazabi is paid the full annual amount agreed to at the commencement of such Order Term (as if the Order Term had run its full course). The sections and subsections titled Definitions, Customer Restrictions and Responsibilities, Warranties and Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Confidentiality, Indemnification, Effect of Termination, Post-Termination Obligations and Miscellaneous will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
11.1 Governing Law and Venue.
This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different jurisdiction. In the event a dispute arises between the parties hereto arising out of or in connection with or with respect to this Agreement or any breach thereof, such dispute shall be determined and settled by arbitration in New Castle County, Delaware, in accordance with the Commercial Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The award rendered thereon by the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties thereto, and judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for equitable or injunctive relief.
11.2 Export.
Customer agrees not to export, reexport, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any U.S. technical data acquired from Sazabi, or any products utilizing such data, in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
11.3 Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or a portion of a provision is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the rest of this Agreement will remain enforceable.
11.4 Waiver.
Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
11.5 Remedies.
Except as provided in the subsection titled Indemnification, the parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative. Customer acknowledges that the Services, Platform, and Documentation contain valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of Sazabi, that any actual or threatened breach of the sections titled Ownership or Confidentiality or any other breach by Customer of its obligations with respect to Intellectual Property Rights of Sazabi will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to Sazabi for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. In such case, Sazabi will be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief or other equitable relief without the requirement of posting bond, including an order that any Platform, Documentation, or any portions thereof, that Customer attempts to import into any country or territory be seized, impounded and destroyed by customs officials. If any legal action is brought to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive its attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other collection expenses, in addition to any other relief it may receive.
11.6 No Assignment.
Neither party shall assign, subcontract, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or its rights and obligations herein, without obtaining the prior written consent of Sazabi, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void; provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or other operation of law, without any consent of the other party. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each party’s permitted successors and assigns.
11.7 Publicity.
Sazabi may publicly list Customer as a customer of Sazabi and, subject to Customer’s brand guidelines, use Customer’s trademark, trade name, and logo solely for marketing or promotional purposes.
11.8 Force Majeure.
Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, pandemic, epidemic, quarantine, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the cause of such delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.
11.9 Relationship of the Parties.
Customer’s relationship to Sazabi is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. Customer will not have, and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of Sazabi.
11.10 Notices.
All notices required or permitted under this agreement must be delivered in writing, if to Sazabi by emailing support@sazabi.ai, and if to Customer, by emailing the e-mail address set forth in the applicable Order or the e-mail address included within an Customer’s account profile on the Platform, provided, however, that with respect to any notices relating to breaches of this agreement or termination, a copy of such notice will also be sent in writing to the other party at the address listed on the signature page of this Agreement by courier, by certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally-recognized express mail service. Each party may change its email address and/or address for receipt of notice by giving notice of such change to the other party.
11.11 Precedence.
To the extent that a conflict arises between the terms and conditions of an Order Form and the terms of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will govern, except to the extent that the Order, expressly states that it supersedes specific language in the Agreement.
11.12 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement (including the DPA, as applicable, and any Order) is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matters.
