12. INDEMNIFICATION.

  • 12.1 Indemnification of Customer. Privia shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Customer from and against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) or damages resulting from any claim by any third party that: (a) the Application Service and/or the Documentation infringes such third party's U.S. patents issued as of the Effective Date, or infringes or misappropriates, as applicable, such third party's copyrights or trade secret rights under applicable laws of any jurisdiction within the United States of America; or (b) Privia's gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided that Customer promptly notifies Privia in writing of the claim, cooperates with Privia, and allows Privia sole authority to control the defense and settlement of such claim. If such a claim is made or appears possible, Customer agrees to permit Privia, at Privia's sole discretion, to enable it to continue to use the Application Service or the Documentation, as applicable, or to modify or replace any such infringing material to make it non-infringing. If Privia determines that none of these alternatives is reasonably available, Customer shall, upon written request from Privia, cease use of, and, if applicable, return, such materials as are the subject of the infringement claim. This Section 12.1 shall not apply if the alleged infringement arises, in whole or in part, from (i) modification of the Application Service or the Documentation by Customer, or (ii) combination, operation or use of the Application Service with, hardware that is not compatible with the hardware specified by Privia or software or other technology not provided by Privia, or (iii) related to the Customer Content (any of the foregoing circumstances under clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) a "Customer Indemnity Responsibility"). IN NO EVENT SHALL PRIVIA'S LIABILITY UNDER THIS SECTION 12.1 EXCEED THE CAP ON LIABILITY SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.2. THIS SECTION STATES PRIVIA'S ENTIRE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT.
  • 12.2 Customer's Indemnity Obligations. Customer agrees to hold harmless, indemnify, and, at Privia's option, defend Privia from and against any losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) or damages resulting from (a) Customer's gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (ii) a Customer Indemnity Responsibility, provided that Privia promptly notifies Customer in writing of the claim, cooperates with Customer, and allows Customer sole authority to control the defense and settlement of such claim; provided that Customer will not settle any third-party claim against Privia unless such settlement completely and forever releases Privia from all liability with respect to such claim or unless Privia consents to such settlement, and further provided that Privia will have the right, at its option, to defend itself against any such claim or to participate in the defense thereof by counsel of its own choice.

13. TERM AND TERMINATION.

  • 13.1 Term. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues until all Order Terms (as defined below) or renewal terms have expired or been terminated.

  • 13.4 Termination Upon Bankruptcy or Insolvency. Either Party may, at its option, terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party, in the event (i) that the other Party becomes insolvent or unable to pay its debts when due; (ii) the other Party files a petition in bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, or, if filed against, such petition is not removed within ninety (90) days after such filing; (iii) the other Party discontinues it business; or (iv) a receiver is appointed or there is an assignment for the benefit of such other Party's creditors.
