Subject to the terms of this Article 22, the Service Provider agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Subscriber and its officers, directors, agents, and employees (each, an “Indemnitee“) from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, expenses, claims, demands, suits, fines, or judgments (each, a “Claim” and collectively, the “Claims”), including reasonable legal counsel fees, costs, and expenses incidental thereto, which may be suffered by, incurred by, accrued against, charged to, or recoverable from any Indemnitee, by reason of any Claim arising out of or relating to any act, error or omission, negligence, or misconduct of Service Provider, its officers, directors, agents, employees, and subcontractors, during the performance of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Claims arising out of or relating to: (i) bodily injury (including death) or damage to tangible personal or real property; (ii) any payment required to be paid to subcontractors, if any, of Service Provider; (iii) any material misrepresentation or breach of warranty of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement; or, (iv) any material uncured breach of any covenant set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply unless the conditions in subsection 4 (below) are satisfied in full.
  2. Proprietary Rights and Indemnification. Subject to the terms of this Article 22, Service Provider agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims, including reasonable legal counsel fees, costs, and expenses incidental thereto, which may be suffered by, incurred by, accrued against, charged to, or recoverable from any Indemnitee, by reason of any Claim arising out of or relating to the Solution infringing or misappropriating any Canadian or foreign patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other proprietary right. In the event that Service Provider is enjoined from providing the Solution and such injunction is not dissolved within thirty (30) calendar days, or in the event that Subscriber is adjudged, in any final order of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal is taken, to have infringed upon or misappropriated any patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other proprietary right in the access or use of the Solution, then Service Provider shall, at its expense: (i) obtain for Subscriber the right to continue using such Solution; (ii) replace or modify such Solution so that they do not infringe upon or misappropriate such proprietary right and is free to be used by Subscriber; or, (iii) in the event that Service Provider is unable or determines, in its sole discretion, that it is commercially unreasonable to do either of the aforementioned, Service Provider shall reimburse to Subscriber any prepaid fees and terminate this Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing represents its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all such indemnified Claims.
  3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by Subscriber of a threat, notice, or filing of any Claim against an Indemnitee, Subscriber shall give notice thereof to Service Provider, provided that failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Service Provider of any liability it may have to the Indemnitee except to the extent that Service Provider demonstrates that the defense of the Claim is prejudiced thereby. Service Provider shall have sole control of the defense and of all negotiations for settlement of a Claim and Subscriber shall not independently defend or respond to a Claim; provided, however, that: (i) Subscriber may defend or respond to a Claim, at Subscriber’s own expense, if Subscriber’s counsel determines, in its sole discretion, that such defense or response is necessary to preclude a default judgment from being entered against an Indemnitee; and, (ii) Subscriber shall have the right, at its own expense, to monitor Service Provider’s defense of a Claim. At Service Provider’s request, Subscriber shall reasonably cooperate with Service Provider in defending against or settling a Claim.
  4. Exceptions & Conditions to Indemnification. The Service Provider’s obligations under this Article are subject to the following exceptions and conditions:

    Service Provider will have no obligation under this Article or otherwise to the extent that the applicable Claim resulted from the acts or omissions of an Indemnitee, or with respect to any infringement or misappropriation Claim to the extent based upon (a) any use of Solution in combination with Third Party Products, not supplied by Service Provider where the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, or (b) any modification of the Solution which was not made by Service Provider.

    Service Provider will have no obligation under this Article or otherwise if any Indemnitee: (a) does not notify Service Provider immediately upon receipt of any Claim; (b) makes any admission of liability or agrees to any settlement or compromise of the relevant Claim without the prior written consent of Service Provider; (c) does not permit Service Provider to have the conduct of or settle all negotiations and litigation arising from any such Claim; or (d) does not, at Service Provider’s request, provide the Service Provider with all reasonable cooperation.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH HEREIN, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, AND / OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING EXCULPATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY WITH RESPECT TO DAMAGES INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF A PARTY. A PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ITS PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE LIABILITY OF A PARTY, WHETHER BASED ON AN ACTION OR CLAIM IN CONTRACT, EQUITY, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, OR OTHERWISE FOR ALL EVENTS, ACTS, OR OMISSIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID OR PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND PROVIDED, FURTHER, THAT THE FOREGOING LIMITATION SHALL NOT APPLY TO: (A) DAMAGES CAUSED BY A PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT; OR, (B) A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS OF CONFIDENTIALITY, AS FURTHER DESCRIBED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

This Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Article 23 – Applicable Policies.

In addition to the terms of this Agreement, Subscriber’s access to and use of the Solution is subject to Service Provider’s then-current policies relating to the Solution, including, without limitation, the Service Provider’s Privacy Policy and Email Policy available on the site. Subscriber is responsible for compliance with these policies and all other Service Provider policies applicable to the access and use of the Solution posted to the site or provided through Solution.

Article 24 – General.

  1. Relationship between Subscriber and Service Provider. Service Provider represents and warrants that it is an independent contractor with no authority to contract for Subscriber or in any way to bind or to commit Subscriber to any agreement of any kind or to assume any liabilities of any nature in the name of or on behalf of Subscriber. Under no circumstances shall Service Provider, or any of its staff, if any, hold itself out as or be considered an agent, employee, joint venture, or partner of Subscriber. In recognition of Service Provider’s status as an independent contractor, Subscriber shall carry no workers’ compensation insurance or any health or accident insurance to cover Service Provider or Service Provider’s agents or staff, if any. Subscriber shall not pay any contributions to Canadian Pension Plan, employment insurance, federal or provincial withholding taxes, any other applicable taxes whether federal, provincial, or local, nor provide any other contributions or benefits which might be expected in an employer-employee relationship. Neither Service Provider nor its staff, if any, shall be eligible for, participate in, or accrue any direct or indirect benefit under any other compensation, benefit, or pension plan of Subscriber.
  2. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada, without regard to choice of laws. Subscriber and Service Provider each hereby consent and submit to the jurisdiction and forum of the province and federal courts in the Province of Alberta in all questions and controversies arising out of this Agreement.
  3. Legal Fees and Costs. In any arbitration, litigation, or other proceeding, informal or formal, by which one party either seeks to enforce this Agreement or seeks a declaration of any rights or obligations under this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party’s costs and expenses, including but not limited to, reasonable legal fees.
  4. Co-operation. Where agreement, approval, acceptance, consent or similar action by either party hereto is required by any provision of this Agreement, such action shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Each party will cooperate with the other by, among other things, making available, as reasonably requested by the other, management decisions, information, approvals, and acceptances in order that each party may properly accomplish its obligations and responsibilities hereunder. Service Provider will cooperate with any Subscriber supplier performing services, and all parties supplying hardware, software, communication services, and other services and products to Subscriber, including, without limitation, the Successor Service Provider. Service Provider agrees to cooperate with such suppliers, and shall not commit or permit any act which may interfere with the performance of services by any such supplier.
  5. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for delays or any failure to perform the Solution or this Agreement due to causes beyond its reasonable control. Such delays include, but are not limited to, fire, explosion, flood or other natural catastrophe, governmental legislation, acts, orders, or regulation, strikes or labor difficulties, to the extent not occasioned by the fault or negligence of the delayed party. Any such excuse for delay shall last only as long as the event remains beyond the reasonable control of the delayed party.
  6. Advertising and Publicity. Service Provider shall not refer to Subscriber directly or indirectly in any advertisement, news release, or publication without prior written approval from Subscriber.
  7. No Waiver. The failure of either party at any time to require performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect that party’s right to enforce such provisions, nor shall the waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement be taken or held to be a waiver of any further breach of the same provision.
  8. Notices. Any notice given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by personal service or registered mail with tracking, postage prepaid to the addresses appearing at the end of this Agreement, or as changed through written notice to the other party. Notice given by personal service shall be deemed effective on the date it is delivered to the addressee, and notice mailed shall be deemed effective on the third day following its placement in the mail addressed to the addressee.
  9. Assignment of Agreement. This Agreement and the obligations of Service Provider hereunder are personal to Service Provider and its employees. Neither Service Provider nor any successor, receiver, or assignee of Service Provider shall directly or indirectly assign this Agreement or the rights or duties created by this Agreement, whether such assignment is effected in connection with a sale of Service Provider’s assets or stock or through merger, an insolvency proceeding or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Subscriber. In the case of an assignment by Service Provider, Service Provider represents and warrants that it has all requisite rights and power to transfer any agreements or other rights with third-parties whose software is incorporated into the Solution or who are necessary for the performance and use of the Solution. Subscriber, at Subscriber’s sole election, may assign any and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any company that succeeds to substantially all of Subscriber’s business.
  10. Counterpart Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement may be consented to by electronic means, which may substitute for and have the same legal effect as the original signature
