Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) is or becomes generally available to the public through no breach of this Agreement by the Recipient; (ii) is or was known by the Recipient at or before the time such information was received from the Discloser; (iii) is received from a third-party that is not under an obligation of confidentiality to the knowledge of the Recipient; (iv) is independently developed by the Recipient without any breach of this Agreement; or (e) is approved for release in advance in writing by the Discloser.

The Parties agree that the terms and conditions, but not the existence and general nature, of this Agreement shall be treated as Confidential Information of Hubvisor.

6.3 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party if such disclosure is required by an order of a court or other governmental authority, law or regulation, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and, if legally permitted, after notice to the other Party; provided that Hubvisor reserves the right to provide any information available to it pursuant to this Agreement to the extent it deems it necessary and/or appropriate to comply with applicable legal requirements, as determined by it in its sole discretion, or as otherwise required to perform its obligations as stated out in the Agreement. In such case, the Party required to make the disclosure shall, at the other Party’s expense, assist the other Party in obtaining a protective order or otherwise minimize and limit the breadth and scope of such disclosure.

6.4 Each Party understands and acknowledges that any disclosure or misappropriation of any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in violation of the Agreement may cause the disclosing Party irreparable harm, the amount of which may be difficult to ascertain and, therefore, agrees that the disclosing Party shall have the right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an order restraining any such further disclosure or misappropriation and for such other relief as the disclosing party shall deem appropriate, in addition to other remedies available to such Party.

6.5 To the extent that Personal Data is processed by Hubvisor or any of third party acting on behalf of Hubvisor, including Bidders, or by Publisher or any of its contractors, including Designated Users, in connection with the use of the Hubvisor Service, the performance of its obligations, and/or the exercise of its rights pursuant to this Agreement, each Party agrees to be bound by and adhere to the terms of the Data Processing Addendum available at www.hubvisor.io/legal/dpa (the “DPA”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

This Agreement may be terminated upon written notice as follows: (i) by either Party if the other party breaches any material provision of the Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 10 days after receipt of written notice of such breach, provided that no opportunity to cure shall be available with respect to breaches by Publisher of Sections 2 or 5; (ii) by Hubvisor if Publisher breaches its payment obligations and fails to cure such breach within 10 days after receipt of written notice; (iii) as provided for in the DPA, (iv) by either Party for any reason on thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other Party; and/or (v) by either Party if the other party becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, files or has filed against it a petition in bankruptcy or seeking reorganization, has a receiver appointed, or institutes any proceedings for liquidation or winding up; provided, however, that, in the case any of the foregoing is involuntary, such Party shall only be in breach if such petition or proceeding has not been dismissed within 30 days.

7.2 Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, all access to the Hubvisor Service shall immediately cease (including the transmission of requests for bids to the Hubvisor Service), except as provided below. In the event of termination, except as a result of Hubvisor’s fault, Publisher shall not be entitled to a refund or credit of any of the undisputed Fees.

10.1 Publisher shall indemnify and hold Hubvisor and its Affiliates, and their employees, directors, officers, representatives, agents, successors, and permitted assigns (the “Hubvisor Indemnified Parties”) harmless, and at Hubvisor’s option defend the Hubvisor Indemnified Parties, from and against any damages, losses, costs, settlements, judgments, awards, fines, penalties, interest, liabilities, or expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs) (collectively “Losses”) incurred in connection with any third-party claim, demand or action (“Claim”) brought against any of the Hubvisor Indemnified Parties arising out of: (i) Publisher’s use of the Hubvisor Service other than in accordance with this Agreement, and applicable law; (ii) Publisher’s breach of this Agreement and/or an applicable Order Form, and/or (iii) any breach and/or alleged breach by Publisher and/or a Designated User of the DPA. For clarity, a claim from a third party on behalf of whom Publisher uses the Hubvisor Service and/or makes Inventory available pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a claim from a third party.

10.2 Hubvisor shall indemnify and hold Publisher and its Affiliates, and their employees, directors, officers, representatives, agents, successors, and permitted assigns (the “Publisher Indemnified Parties”) harmless, and at Hubvisor’s option defend the Publisher Indemnified Parties, from and against any Losses incurred in connection with any Claim brought against any of the Publisher Indemnified Parties arising out of: (i) any breach and/or alleged breach by Hubvisor of the DPA; and/or (ii) any allegation that the Hubvisor Service violates or infringes upon the Intellectual Property Rights of any third party. If elected by Hubvisor, Hubvisor shall have exclusive control of the defense of any such Claim.

10.3 If any of the Hubvisor Service become, or in Hubvisor’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement claim under the Agreement, Hubvisor may, at its sole option and expense, either:

10.3.1 procure for Publisher the right to continue using the applicable Hubvisor Service;

10.3.2 replace or modify the applicable Hubvisor Service so that it becomes non-infringing; or

10.3.3 solely if clauses 10.3.1 and 10.3.2 are not commercially viable, terminate this Agreement.

10.3.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Hubvisor will have no obligation with respect to any infringement claim based upon:

10.3.5 any use of the Hubvisor Service not in accordance with the Agreement;

10.3.6 any use of the Hubvisor Service in combination with other products, equipment, or software not supplied by Hubvisor, where such combination gives rise to the Claim;

10.3.7 any modification of the Hubvisor Service by any person other than Hubvisor or its authorized agents, or by Hubvisor or its authorized agents or subcontractors in compliance with the instructions of Publisher; or

10.3.8 continued infringing activity by Publisher after Publisher has been provided with an alternative version of the Hubvisor Service or an applicable component thereof.

10.4 An Indemnified Party under this Section 10 (an “Indemnitee”) must (i) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing regarding any facts that may give rise to a Claim for indemnification under this Agreement (provided that any delay in notification will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the delay impairs its ability to defend); (ii) provide Indemnifying Party with reasonable information, assistance and cooperation in defending the lawsuit or proceeding (at Indemnitor’s expense, to the extent of any out-of-pocket expenses); and (iii) give the Indemnifying Party full control and sole authority over the defense and settlement of such claim, subject to the Indemnified Party’s approval of any such settlement which imposes any monetary or other continuing obligation on such Indemnified Party or that constitutes an admission on the part of the Indemnified Party, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnifying Party is not responsible for any costs incurred or compromise made by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party has given prior written consent to the cost or compromise.
