7.2 DISCLAIMERS. EACH PARTY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR NON-INFRINGEMENT (IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT, FOR PURPOSES OF CLARIFICATION, THE FOREGOING WILL NOT LIMIT EITHER PARTY’S IP INFRINGEMENT OBLIGATION SET FORTH IN SECTION 7 OF THIS AGREEMENT), MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

7.3 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OR TYPE OF CLAIM: (A) EXCEPT FOR INDEMNIFICATION AMOUNTS PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND BREACHES OF CONFIDENTIALITY, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE UNDER THE AGREEMENT FOR LOST REVENUES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES RELATED TO SUCH LOST REVENUES, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE PARTY KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE POSSIBLE AND EVEN IF DIRECT DAMAGES DO NOT SATISFY A REMEDY; AND (B) EXCEPT FOR EACH PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR EACH PARTY’S INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, EACH PARTY’S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO A PARTICULAR ANALYTICS SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES PAID OR PAYABLE TO COMPANY UNDER THE AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ANALYTICS SERVICE DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE.

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 INDEMNIFICATION. Each party (the “Indemnifying Party”) will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party and its officers, directors, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from all third-party claims or liabilities (including without limitation reimbursement for reasonable outside attorneys’ fees and disbursements) arising out of or related to the Indemnifying Party’s (i) breach or alleged breach of this License Agreement, or (ii) infringement of a third party’s U.S. patent, trademark, trade secret or copyright in connection with (a) with respect to Company, the software and other technology used by Company to provide the Analytics Service(s) hereunder, and (b) with respect to Customer, the creative, technology, data or other materials provided by Customer to Company or otherwise provided and utilized by Customer in connection with the Analytics Service(s) hereunder (“Customer Materials”) (the indemnification obligation of each party described in this clause (ii), the “IP Infringement Obligation”). The previous sentence states the sole liability of the Indemnifying Party, and the sole remedy of the Indemnified Party, with respect to any third-party claim arising out of the Indemnifying Party’s breach of this License Agreement or intellectual property infringement.

(a) The Indemnified Party must (i) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the third-party claims (provided that failure of the Indemnified Party to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent it has been damaged by the failure); (ii) reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of the matter and (iii) give the Indemnifying Party primary control of the defense of the matter and negotiations for its settlement. The Indemnified Party may at its expense join in the defense with counsel of its choice. The Indemnifying Party may enter into a settlement only if it (A) involves only the payment of money damages by the Indemnifying Party, and (B) includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party; any other settlement will be subject to written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Company’s IP Infringement Obligation will not apply to claims to the extent arising from (i) Customer’s use of the Analytics Service(s) if the use violates this License Agreement; or (ii) the combination, operation or use of the Analytics Suite Service(s) with any product or service not provided or authorized in writing by Company or Google. Customer’s IP Infringement Obligation will not apply to claims to the extent arising from Company’s provision of the Analytics Service(s) in violation of this License Agreement. If an Analytics Service becomes, or in Company’s reasonable opinion is likely to become, the subject of an intellectual property infringement claim, then Company will promptly notify Customer and, at its sole option and expense, may either: (x) procure the right to continue providing the Analytics Service(s) as contemplated by this License Agreement; (y) modify the Analytics Service to render it non infringing (provided that modification does not adversely affect use of the Analytics Service); or (z) replace the Analytics Service with a functionally equivalent, non-infringing service. If none of the foregoing options is commercially practicable, then each party will have the right to terminate each affected Analytics Service.

MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 MODIFICATION OF POLICIES. Google may modify any policies or fees that apply to the Analytics Service(s), including the Google Terms, at any time. Customer should review the policies regularly.

9.4 GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. This License Agreement is governed by California law, excluding its choice of law rules. Any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this License Agreement shall be submitted to arbitration by one arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties, and if no agreement can be reached within thirty (30) days after names of potential arbitrators have been proposed by [the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”)] then by one arbitrator having reasonable experience in commercial transactions of the type provided for in this License Agreement and who is chosen by the AAA. The arbitration shall take placein [San Francisco, CA], in accordance with the AAA rules then in effect, and judgment upon any award rendered insuch arbitration will be binding and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. If any provision of this License Agreement is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it and any related provisions will be interpreted to best accomplish the unenforceable provision’s essential purpose.

9.5 GENERAL. No party may assign or transfer any part of this License Agreement without the written consent of the other party, except Company may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder to Google to the extent such rights and duties relate to a Google product. Any other attempt to transfer or assign is void. Nothing in this License Agreement will limit a party’s ability to seek equitable relief. This License Agreement is the parties’ entire agreement relating to its subject and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements on that subject. All amendments hereto must be executed by both parties and expressly state that they are amending this License Agreement. Failure to enforce any provision will not constitute a waiver. If any provision is found unenforceable, it and any related provisions will be interpreted to best accomplish the unenforceable provision’s essential purpose. Each party is liable for the acts and omissions of its subcontractors. The parties are independent contractors, and this License Agreement does not create an agency, partnership or joint venture. Neither party will be liable for any acts or omissions resulting from circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control. Any notice, demand, request or written communication which may be required to be given by a party to the other party under this License Agreement shall be given by either serving it upon the other personally or delivering or mailing it by overnight courier or registered mail, or by facsimile, or via e-mail to the other party at the coordinates provided by such party. Notwithstanding termination or expiration of the License Agreement, any provisions of the License Agreement that by their nature are intended to survive will survive termination.
