Article IV – Confidentiality, Indemnity and Limitation of Liability
1. Confidentiality. In performing consulting services under this Agreement, Mythics may be exposed to and will be required to use certain “Confidential Information” (as hereinafter defined) of the Client. Mythics agrees that Mythics will not, and Mythics’ employees, agents or representatives will not, use, directly or indirectly, such Confidential Information for the benefit of any person, entity or organization other than the Client, or disclose such Confidential Information without the written authorization of the President of the Client, either during or after the term of this Agreement, for as long as such information retains the characteristics of Confidential Information.
“Confidential Information” means information, not generally known, and proprietary to the Client or to a third party for whom the Client is performing work, including, without limitation, information concerning any patents or trade secrets, confidential or secret designs, processes, formulae, source codes, plans, devices or material, research and development, proprietary software, analysis, techniques, materials or designs (whether or not patented or patentable), directly or indirectly useful in any aspect of the business of the Client, any vendor names, client and supplier lists, databases, management systems and sales and marketing plans of the Client, any confidential secret development or research work of the Client, or any other confidential information or proprietary aspects of the business of the Client. All information which Mythics acquires or becomes acquainted with during the period of this Agreement, whether developed by Mythics or by others, which Mythics has a reasonable basis to believe to be Confidential Information, or which is treated by the Client as being Confidential Information, shall be presumed to be Confidential Information.
2. Indemnification. Mythics covenants to fully indemnify, save and hold harmless Client, its officers, employees, and agents ("Indemnitees") against all liability, damage, loss, claims, demands and actions brought by a third party of any kind on account of 1) personal injuries (including, without limiting the foregoing, workers' compensation and death claims), or 2) property loss or damage of any kind, which arise out of or are in any manner connected with, or are claimed to arise out of or be in any manner connected with services or products provided by Mythics under this agreement which may be attributed to negligence or willful misconduct by Mythics.
In the event an indemnifiable event arises, the Indemnitee shall do the following:
SERIAL 180233-RFP
a. Notifies Mythics promptly in writing, as soon as practicable, but not later than 30 days after the Indemnitee receives notice the claim, (or sooner if required by applicable law); b. gives the Mythics sole control of the defense and any settlement negotiations; and c. gives the Mythics the information, authority, and assistance the Provider needs to defend against or settle the claim.
If the aforementioned requirements are not met, and such action or inaction on the part of the Indemnitee unreasonably hinders or harms Mythics’ ability to adequately defend against such claims, Mythics shall be alleviated from its indemnification obligations and the Indemnitee(s) shall have waived there right to seek such Indemnification. Client may, at any time and for any reason, elect to retain counsel and participate in the defense at its own expense.
3. Intellectual Property Indemnification. If a third party makes a claim against you (“Recipient”), that any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material (“Material”) furnished by Mythics (“Provider”), and used by the Recipient infringes its intellectual property rights, the Provider, at its sole cost and expense, will defend the Recipient against the claim and indemnify the Recipient from the damages, liabilities, costs and expenses awarded by the court to the third party claiming infringement or the settlement agreed to by the Provider if the Recipient does the following:
a. Notifies the Provider promptly in writing, not later than 30 days after the Recipient receives notice the claim, (or sooner if required by applicable law);
b. gives the Provider sole control of the defense and any settlement negotiations; and c. gives the Provider the information, authority, and assistance the Provider needs to defend against or settle the claim.
If the Provider believes or it is determined that any of the Material may have violated a third party’s intellectual property rights, the Provider may choose to either modify the Material to be non-infringing (while substantially preserving its utility or functionality) or obtain a license to allow for continued use, or if these alternatives are not commercially reasonable, the Provider may end the license for, and require return of, the applicable Material and refund any fees the Recipient may have paid to the other party for it and any unused, prepaid technical support fees you have paid for the license. The Provider will not indemnify the Recipient if the Recipient alters the Material or uses it outside the scope of use identified in the Provider's user documentation or if the Recipient uses a version of the Materials which has been superseded, if the infringement claim could have been avoided by using an unaltered current version of the Material which was provided to the Recipient. The Provider will not indemnify the Recipient to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material not furnished by the Provider. Mythics will not indemnify you to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon the combination of any Material with any products or services not provided by Mythics. Mythics will not indemnify you for infringement caused by your actions against any third party if the program(s) as delivered to you and used in accordance with the terms of this agreement would not otherwise infringe any third-party intellectual property rights. Mythics will not indemnify you for any claim that is based on: (1) a patent that you were made aware of prior to the effective date of this agreement (pursuant to a claim, demand or notice); or (2) your actions prior to the effective date of this agreement.
This section provides the parties' exclusive remedy for any infringement claims or damages.
4. Limitation of Liability. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR
ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE,
OR SAVINGS) INCURRED BY EITHER PARTY, OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN
ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR A VIOLATION OF THE CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION SECTION BELOW, MYTHICS’ TOTAL LIABILITY UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT, FOR ANY CAUSE OF ACTION WHATSOEVER, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE
AMOUNT OF FEES PAID BY CLIENT UNDER THE APPLICABLE STATEMENT OF WORK FROM WHICH SUCH LIABILITY ARISES.
Article V – Representations and Warranty
1. Representations. Mythics hereby represents it is a business appropriately registered and in good standing in the applicable jurisdiction and has not been disbarred, recommended for disbarment or otherwise subject to any disciplinary action that would prevent Mythics from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement.

STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FOR ANY BREACH OF THE WARRANTY, CLIENT’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, AND MYTHICS ENTIRE

6. Compliance with the Law. The Parties hereby covenant to comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations for the duration of this Agreement.
7. Disputes. Disputes under this agreement shall be referred to the appropriate Client president, or their designee, and Mythics’ president, or their designee, thirty (30) days before either party may commence formal proceedings; provided however, that this provision shall not restrain either party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief.
When seeking to resolve a dispute, the party’s designated executives shall consider the types and impacts of the disputed matters, the effect of the dispute on the Program and Client’s success as awardee, the cost to both parties of resolving the dispute and the practical effects on the business of each party resulting from the resolution or failure to resolve any such dispute. In the event that the designated executives are unable to resolve a dispute in the required time or longer, if extended by the mutual agreement of the parties, either party may then submit the matter for formal proceedings which may include litigation or alternate dispute resolution. In the event litigation is necessary to enforce any provision of or resolve any dispute arising out of this Agreement, the Parties agree that any proceeding relating to or arising from the Agreement shall be heard and litigated exclusively in a state or federal court, having appropriate jurisdiction over such matters, located in the Client’s state of incorporation or business operations. Each party hereto consents to the personal jurisdiction in any such action brought in any such court, consents to service of process by registered mail upon each party’s designated legal counsel and waives any objection to venue in any such courts and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. During this process, each party will continue performing its obligations under this Agreement.

9. Partial Invalidity. In case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein.
10. Changes in Law. In the event that Mythics is wholly or partially prevented from or hindered in providing one or more Services by a change in applicable law (or changes in the interpretation or enforcement thereof by a governmental authority with requisite jurisdiction) (each a “Change in Law”), then Mythics shall not be obligated to deliver the affected Services; and the Parties shall treat the Change in Law as a Proposed Change Order and proceed in accordance with the requirements for Change Orders contained herein.
11. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable to the other for any loss, claim or damage as a result of any delay or failure in the performance of any obligation hereunder, directly or indirectly caused by or resulting from: acts of the government; acts of God; acts of third persons; strikes, embargoes, delays in the mail, transportation and delivery; power failures and shortages; fires; floods; epidemics, pandemics and unusually severe weather conditions; or other causes which do not result from the fault or negligence of such Party.
