Indemnity
By HEEDIFY
HEEDIFY agrees to defend, hold harmless and indemnify Customer from and against any and all third-party damages and losses arising from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding (“Claim”) asserted against Customer by a third party based on a claim that the Service as used as permitted hereunder, infringes any valid United States patent or copyright of such third party, but only to the extent that Customer’s use of the Service was in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. HEEDIFY’s indemnification obligations are conditioned upon Customer: (a) giving HEEDIFY prompt written notice of any Claim for which Customer is seeking indemnity hereunder, provided, however, that any delay in providing such notice shall not relieve the HEEDIFY of its obligations to the extent HEEDIFY is prejudiced by such delay; (b) HEEDIFY has sole control of the defense of the Claim and will not settle a claim without consent of the Customer, if such settlement involves an admission of guilt or any financial or performance obligations; and (c) Customer provides to HEEDIFY, at HEEDIFY’s request and expense, with the assistance, information and authority necessary to perform HEEDIFY’s obligations. If the Service becomes or, in HEEDIFY’ opinion, is likely to become the subject of an injunction, HEEDIFY may, at its option, (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using such Service, (ii) replace or modify such Service so that it becomes non-infringing without substantially compromising its functionality, or, if (i) and (ii) are not reasonably available to HEEDIFY, then (iii) terminate Customer’s license to the allegedly infringing Service and refund any pre-paid amounts for any unused portion of the term. The foregoing is HEEDIFY sole liability and Customer’s sole remedy for an<m=y infringement by the Service and states the entire liability of HEEDIFY with respect to infringement of patents, copyrights, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights. The foregoing indemnification obligations set forth herein above shall not apply to: (i) Service modified by any party other than HEEDIFY, if the alleged infringement relates to such modification, (ii) Service combined or bundled with any non-HEEDIFY products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement would not have occurred but for the creation of such combination, (iii) the use of a version of the Service other than the version that was current at the time of such use, as long as HEEDIFY shall have made available Customer with such non-infringing version, (iv) Service created to the specifications of Customer when the infringement would not have occurred but for such specifications provided by Customer; or (v) infringement or misappropriation of any proprietary right in which Customer has an interest.

Any delays resulting from Customer’s failure to perform or fulfill its responsibilities (such as not having systems ready or failing to provide necessary data) will not affect fees due to HEEDIFY.
