-
Indemnification Procedures
-
The party to be indemnified (the “indemnitee”) under this Agreement shall (a) notify the other party (the “indemnitor”) in writing of a claim promptly upon learning of or receiving the same and (b) provide the indemnitor with reasonable assistance requested, at the indemnitor’s expense, for the defense and settlement, if applicable, of any claim. The indemnitee’s failure to perform the foregoing obligations shall not relieve the indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the indemnitor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. After receipt of notice, the indemnitor shall be entitled, if it so elects, at its own cost, risk and expense: (i) to take control of the defense, investigation, and compromise or settlement, if applicable, of such lawsuit or action; and (ii) to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same. If the indemnitor fails to assume the defense of such claim within ten (10) business days after receipt of notice of the claim, the indemnitee against which such claim has been asserted will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnitor) have the right to undertake, at the indemnitor’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnitor; provided, however that such claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the indemnitor. In the event the indemnitee assumes the defense of the claim, the indemnitee will keep the indemnitor reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnitee shall be entitled to conduct its own defense at the cost and expense of the indemnitor if the indemnitee establishes that the conduct of its defense by the indemnitor would reasonably be likely to prejudice materially the indemnitee due to a conflict of interest between the indemnitee and the indemnitor; and provided further that in any event, the indemnitee may participate in such defense at its own expense.
GENERAL
-
Relationship of Parties
-
The relationship of the parties is that of
independent contractors. This Agreement is not intended to create
and shall not be construed as creating between the parties a
relationship of principal and agent, joint venturers, partners,
employer-employee or any other similar relationship, the existence of
which is hereby expressly denied, nor shall either party be
considered in any sense an affiliate or subsidiary of the other.
Neither party shall have any authority to create or assume in the
other party’s name or on its behalf any obligation, expressed or
implied, or to act or purport to act as the other party’s agent or
legally empowered representative for any purpose whatsoever, except
as expressly provided for herein.

-
This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any other person or entity any legal or equitable right.
-
Equitable Remedies
-
The parties agree that any material breach of this Agreement by either party or its Representatives may cause immediate and irreparable harm, for which monetary damages would be inadequate or difficult to ascertain. The parties therefore agree that upon the existence of any such breach or threatened breach, the non-breaching party may immediately seek a temporary restraining order or other appropriate form of equitable relief, without posting a bond or other form of security. This paragraph will not limit either party’s rights to obtain monetary damages in addition to or as substitution for such equitable relief.
-
Notices
-
All notices permitted or required under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent by electronic mail, if to Customer, to the then-current email addresses contained in the user profiles of Customers’ Administrative Users, and, if to InspectDate, to support@inspectdate.com. Notice delivered by email shall be deemed given unless the party sending such notice has reason to believe the notice was not actually delivered (e.g., if the sender received a failed delivery notification). In the event a party has reason to believe that its notice sent via email was not actually delivered, a copy of such notice shall also be sent via personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier service, or first-class mail, and shall be deemed given when received, if delivered by hand or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier, or three (3) business days after the date mailed, if sent by first-class mail. Any such notice to Customer shall be sent to the then-current address set forth in any of Customer’s Administrative Users’ user profiles, and any such notice to InspectDate shall be sent to FixitFrog, LLC, PO Box 25001, Portland, OR 97298, Attn: Patrick Hess. Customer may update its email address or physical mailing address to which it receives notices by editing such information within the Software user profiles of its Administrative Users; furthermore, either party may update its email address or physical address for notices by providing written notice of such address to the other party in accordance with this paragraph.

-
Governing Law Venue
-
This Agreement shall be controlled by and construed under the laws of the State of Oregon.

Each party hereby agrees that any such court shall have personal jurisdiction over it.
-
Entire Agreement
-
This Agreement, together with the EULA, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. Any and all prior agreements or representations respecting the subject matter of this Agreement, whether written or oral, expressed or implied, are superseded by this Agreement.
-
Waiver
-
No waiver of any breach or default shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default, nor shall any delay or omission on the part of either party to exercise or avail itself of any right or remedy operate as waiver of such right or remedy.
-
Force Majeure
-
Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party (except the payment of money owed) shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement if the delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of the party if the party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the circumstances causing the delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.
-
Assignment
