Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose or retain Confidential Information to the limited extent required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that the Party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first have given written notice to the other Party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish a Party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings.

Thrivable may control the defense and/or settlement of any Indemnifiable Claim, provided that, if applicable, Thrivable may not settle any such Indemnifiable Claim without the obtaining a release of the Customer from such Indemnifiable Claim. If the defense and/or settlement of any Indemnifiable Claim is compromised by the failure of the Customer to comply with the provisions of this §6.2, the Customer shall be liable, to the extent of such failure, for the expenses, costs and/or damages incurred by the Customer.
    3. Notwithstanding that set forth in §6.1, neither the Customer nor any third party may seek indemnification from Thrivable for any Indemnifiable Claim that asserts the Platform infringes upon the intellectual property rights of a third party if (a) the Customer and/or any third party acting on behalf of either of the same failed to install or apply, or failed to have installed or applied, any Update or Upgrade and such assertion of infringement would be, or would have been, invalidated or could not have been brought, or would not have been successful, if such Update or Upgrade was installed or applied, (b) the Customer and/or any third party acting on behalf of either of the same used or uses the Platform in a manner (1) inconsistent with the provisions of the Agreement and/or (2) contrary to its intended use and or purpose and/or (c) such assertion of infringement relates solely to Customer Data.
  6. Limitations on Liability; Remedies.

    1. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED BY THRIVABLE ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS.  ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR CONTRACTUAL OR STATUTORY, ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED.  WITHOUT LIMITATION, THRIVABLE NEITHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS, NOR COVENANTS, THAT (a) THE OPERATION AND/OR USE OF THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, (b) THE PLATFORM WILL PERFORM IN EVERY OPERATING ENVIRONMENT, (c) ALL DEFICIENCIES OR ERRORS IN THE PLATFORM ARE CAPABLE OF CORRECTION OR (d) THE PLATFORM MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF ANY PARTY WHATSOEVER.

    2. IN NO EVENT MAY EITHER PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER TO THRIVABLE IN THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.  
    3. NEITHER PARTY HERETO MAY BE HELD LIABLE TO THE OTHER OR TO ANY THIRD-PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST OR ANTICIPATED REVENUES OR PROFITS) ARISING FROM ANY CLAIM RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT OR TORT (WHETHER UNDER A THEORY OF NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH PARTY IS ADVISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OR POSSIBILITY THEREOF.
    4. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTY HERETO HAS RELIED UPON THE LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS §7 AND, BUT FOR THEIR INCLUSION HEREIN, WOULD NOT HAVE ENTERED INTO THE AGREEMENT.
    5. In the event an Indemnifiable Claim alleges a breach by Thrivable §3.2, Thrivable may, in its sole discretion (a) procure for the Customer the right to use that portion, or those portions, of the Platform contemplated in such Indemnifiable Claim, (b) provide a non-infringing substitute that would not give rise to an Indemnifiable Claim, and/or (c) terminate the Platform Access as to that portion, or those portions, of the Platform contemplated in such Indemnifiable Claim and provide a pro-rata refund of any prepaid fees.
  7. Term & Termination.

    1. The Agreement shall remain in full force and effect during the Term unless and until it is terminated according to this §8. This Agreement will automatically renew unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement’s express provisions or either Party gives the other Party written notice of non-renewal at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term (each a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”). Thrivable will notify Customer at least one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the end of the then-current term if Thrivable increases the costs of the Platform, provided however, that increases in price due to an increase in Customer’s Usage Metrics shall not be considered a price increase. 
    2. Either Party may terminate the Agreement if the other Party materially breaches a covenant, representation or warranty made in the Agreement or materially fails to perform, or comply with, its obligations according to the Agreement, by notifying such other Party of such breach or material failure (as the case may be) and, if such breach is not cured within 30 days following receipt of notice thereof, notifying such other Party no less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the Customer’s failure to pay any Amounts Due according to §2 shall constitute the Customer’s material failure to perform.
    3. Either Party may immediately terminate the Agreement by notifying such other Party of such termination if such other Party (a) files a petition in bankruptcy, (b) has filed against it a petition in bankruptcy and such petition is not dismissed within 90 days of being so filed, (c) becomes insolvent according to the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it was formed or (d) makes an assignment, or enters into some other arrangement, for the benefit of its creditors.
    4. Immediately upon the termination of the Agreement, (a) the Customer’s Platform Access shall terminate and Customer shall have no further right, title or interest in the Platform or any part thereof, (b) neither Party may use the other Party’s Confidential Information and shall destroy or return, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Party disclosing such Confidential Information, all copies thereof and (c) each Party shall immediately pay to the other Party all amounts that are due and payable hereunder. Before termination, Customer may use the self-service export tools in the Platform to perform a final export of Customer Data from the Platform. Alternatively, Customer may request data export through a support ticket post-termination, provided that Thrivable may delete the Customer Data within 30 days of termination unless applicable law requires retention. 
    5. The provisions of §§1.3, 2.2, 4, 5, 7, 8.4, 8.5, and the provisions of §9 and §10, as and where applicable, shall survive any termination of the Agreement.
