The foregoing obligation does not apply to any Claim or Losses arising out of or relating to any:

(A) incorporation of any component of the Wagepoint Services into, or any combination, operation, or use of any the Wagepoint Services component with, any products or services not provided or authorized by Wagepoint, unless such infringement would also have resulted solely from the use of the Wagepoint Services without their incorporation in, or combination, operation or use, with such other products or services;

(B) Modification of the Wagepoint Services other than by Wagepoint or with Wagepoint’s express written approval;

(C) unauthorized use of the Wagepoint Offering;

(D) Outputs or Third-Party Products; or

(E) Customer’s indemnity in Section 11(b).

(A) obtain the right for the Customer to continue to use the affected the Wagepoint Services materially as contemplated by this Agreement;

(B) Modify or replace the Wagepoint Services, in whole or in part, to seek to make the Wagepoint Services (as so modified or replaced) non-infringing while providing materially equivalent features and functionality, in which case such Modifications or replacements will constitute the Wagepoint Services under this Agreement; or

(C) if Wagepoint determines that neither of the foregoing two options are reasonably available, by written notice to the Customer, terminate the Wagepoint Services, in whole or in part, and require the Customer to immediately cease all use of the terminated the Wagepoint Services or part or feature thereof and refund any unused prepaid Fees for the terminated the Wagepoint Services, if applicable.

THE FOREGOING IS IN LIEU OF ANY REPRESENTATION, COVENANTS OR WARRANTIES OF NONINFRINGEMENT, WHICH ARE DISCLAIMED.

(b) Customer Indemnity.

The Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) will cooperate with the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitor will promptly take control of the defense and investigation of such Claim (although the Indemnitor will not settle any Claim without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent) and will employ counsel of its choice to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee’s failure to perform any obligations under this Section 11(c) will not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnity obligations under this Section 11 except to the extent that the Indemnitor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnitee may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing.
