  13. CONFIDENTIALITY. You acknowledge and agree that you may be granted access to certain confidential information of Computershare, its Affiliates or Service Providers that may be marked as "Confidential" or that otherwise, by its nature, would be reasonably understood to be confidential, including without limitation the Online Service and Computershare pricing ("Computershare Confidential Information," collectively with the Customer Data, the "Confidential Information"). Confidential Information excludes information that is (a) known to the receiving party at the time of disclosure; (b) received from a third party having the right to disclose such information to a party; (c) available to the public other than by a breach of an agreement with a party or its Affiliates; or (d) developed by the receiving party independently of the disclosing party's Confidential Information.

Computershare will not further disclose the Customer Data other than as reasonably required in connection with performance of the Agreement including, without limitation to its Service Providers and Affiliates, provided that Computershare will provide a copy of the Customer Data in your GEMS database upon termination of the Agreement at your request in the database format supported by the Online Service. Computershare personnel may access Customer Data and Customer's account for diagnostic purposes or as instructed by Customer. Computershare shall establish and maintain a written Information Security Program designed to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of Customer Data; (b) protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such Customer Data; and (c) protect against unauthorized access to or use of such Customer Data that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to the person that is the subject of such Customer Data. Computershare may use, disclose, market, and sell market data and statistics derived from Customer accounts provided such data is non-individualized, anonymous, and aggregated and such data is not attributable to any particular client.

  14. INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY. Subject to the limitations of liability in Section 15 below, if a third party asserts a claim against you that the Online Service infringes that party's patent or copyright or constitutes the misappropriation of a trade secret or proprietary interest (a "Claim"), Computershare will defend you against that Claim and pay damages that a court finally awards against you or that are included in a settlement approved by Computershare, provided that you promptly notify Computershare in writing of the Claim (although failure to do so will only relieve Computershare of its obligations hereunder to the extent Computershare is prejudiced thereby), supply information reasonably requested by Computershare, and allow Computershare to control the defense and settlement (provided that no settlement or compromise that imposes any monetary damages or obligates you to take any affirmative actions shall be entered into or agreed upon without the your prior written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Computershare reserves the right to modify or replace the Online Service with an equivalent non-infringing one or, if replacement is not reasonably available, discontinue the Online Service and terminate the Agreement and provide a credit for any pre-paid and unearned Service Fees for the unexpired term. Computershare has no liability for claims that include, in whole or part, items or information not provided by Computershare. You are responsible for any violation of law or any third party rights caused by your content or, except as provided in this paragraph, your use of the Online Service in violation of the Agreement. The foregoing represents Computershare's sole responsibility to Customer in the event of a third party infringement claim of any kind.

  15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. COMPUTERSHARE (WHICH, FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION 15 INCLUDES COMPUTERSHARE AND ITS AFFILIATES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS) WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY COMPANY WITH WHICH YOU ARE ASSOCIATED FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOSSES, COSTS OR EXPENSES IN RESPECT OF OR ARISING FROM THE AGREEMENT (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES), WHETHER FOR, AMONG OTHER THINGS, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR ANY OBLIGATION ARISING THEREFROM, AND WHETHER LIABILITY IS ASSERTED IN, AMONG OTHER THINGS, CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF COMPUTERSHARE IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, LOSSES, COSTS OR EXPENSES.

    FURTHER, COMPUTERSHARE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY COMPENSATION, REIMBURSEMENT, OR DAMAGES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH: (A) YOUR OR YOUR AUTHORIZED USERS' INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES AS A RESULT OF ANY DOWNTIME OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THE ONLINE SERVICE FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING AS A RESULT OF POWER OUTAGES, SYSTEM FAILURES OR OTHER INTERRUPTIONS; (B) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES; (C) PENALTIES, INTEREST OR FINES ASSESSED AGAINST YOU BY ANY GOVERNMENT OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY; OR (D) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, ALTERATION OF, OR THE DELETION, DESTRUCTION, DAMAGE, LOSS OR FAILURE TO STORE, ANY OF YOUR DATA.

THIS SECTION WILL BE GIVEN FULL EFFECT EVEN IF ANY REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THE AGREEMENT IS DEEMED TO HAVE FAILED ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

    The exclusions and limitations in this Section 15 will apply regardless of whether any action is brought under statute, in contract, tort, or strict liability, or for negligence (and regardless of the number of claims).

  16. FORCE MAJEURE. In the event that either party is prevented from performing, or is unable to perform, any of its obligations under the Agreement due to any cause beyond the reasonable control of the party invoking this provision, the affected party's performance will be excused and the time for performance will be extended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such occurrence; provided, that the affected party: (a) provides the other party prompt notice of the nature and expected duration of the event, (b) uses commercially reasonable efforts to address and mitigate the cause and effect of such event, (c) provides periodic notice of relevant developments, and (d) provides prompt notice of the end of such event.

  17. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. The Agreement is entered into solely for your and Computershare's benefit. Neither you nor Computershare intends that the Agreement shall benefit any person or entity other than you and Computershare, or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf of, any person or entity other than you or Computershare.

  18. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each party acknowledges and agrees that breach by the other of the confidentiality and proprietary rights sections of these Terms and Conditions will give rise to irreparable harm, and that the injured party shall be entitled to injunctive relief in such event.

  19. NOTICES. All notices delivered under the Agreement shall be in writing and deemed given upon receipt when delivered personally or upon confirmation of receipt following delivery by (i) nationally recognized overnight courier service or (ii) registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to each party at its last known address, to the address set forth on the Order Form or at such other address furnished by the respective party in writing.

The parties will submit to the exclusive personal and subject matter jurisdiction of (a) the state and federal courts located in the City and County of New York, New York. In the event of dispute between the parties hereto that goes to litigation or arbitration, the prevailing party shall be entitled to collect and be paid all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, paid or incurred by it to enforce the terms of the Agreement and to collect amounts due hereunder. If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. Computershare's failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive Computershare's right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. The section titles in these Terms and Conditions are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. You may not assign the Agreement or any of the rights granted to you hereunder, including your right to use or access the Online Service. Computershare may assign the Agreement without your consent to an Affiliate of Computershare or to a successor in interest or to a party acquiring all or substantially all of Computershare's business through a merger, acquisition, reorganization or other transaction. The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Computershare and you regarding the Online Service and supersedes all prior written and oral agreements. The Agreement may not be amended or modified nor any obligation waived, except as contemplated herein or as otherwise agreed by a writing signed by both you and Computershare.

  22. MODIFICATIONS. NO CHANGES TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED. Computershare may modify these Terms and Conditions at any time. SUCH CHANGES SHALL BE POSTED ON THE APPLICABLE ONLINE PORTAL OR otherwise made available to you. The revised terms shall be effective upon the earlier of (a) ten (10) days after posting and/or notifying you of the changes; or (b) upon your acceptance if Computershare provides a mechanism for the acceptance of the revised terms, such as a click-through confirmation or acceptance button. By continuing to use or receive the Online Service after the effective date of any revisions to these Terms and Conditions, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms and Conditions. It is your responsibility to check the Computershare Site regularly for changes to these Terms and Conditions. If you disagree with such modifications, your sole and exclusive remedy shall be to terminate the Agreement and the receipt of the Online Service by sending written notice to Computershare and receive a refund of any unused annual Service Fees.
