The foregoing indemnification obligation of IRGame is contingent upon Customer promptly notifying IRGame in writing of such claim (provided the failure or delay in doing so shall not relieve IRGame from any obligations to indemnify Customer except to the extent that such delay or failure materially prejudices the defense of such claim), permitting IRGame sole authority to control the defense or settlement of such claim, and providing IRGame reasonable assistance (at IRGame’s sole expense) in connection therewith. If a claim of infringement under this Section occurs, or if IRGame determines a claim is likely to occur, IRGame will have the right, in its sole discretion, to either (i) procure for Customer the right or license to continue to use the Products free of the infringement claim; or (ii) modify the Products to make them non-infringing, without loss of material functionality. If neither of these remedies is reasonably available to IRGame, IRGame may, in its sole discretion, immediately termin ate the related Order and, upon return of the infringing Products from Customer, refund any pre-paid, unearned Fees paid for such Products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, IRGame will have no obligation with respect to any claim of infringement that is based upon or arises out of (a) the use or combination of the Products with any hardware, software, products, data, or other materials not provided by IRGame; (b) modification or alteration of the Products by anyone other than IRGame; (c) a breach by Customer of this Agreement, including use of the Products in excess of the rights granted in this Agreement, or any breach by Customer of any applicable law; (d) any specifications or other intellectual property provided by Customer; or (e) Customer’s failure to comply with IRGame’s direction to cease any activity that in IRGame’s reasonable judgment may result in such a claim (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”).

The allocations of liability in this Section represent the agreed, bargained-for understanding of the parties and IRGame’s compensation hereunder reflects such allocations.

In the event Customer fails to suspend such non-compliant User, Customer hereby authorizes IRGame to suspend such User(s) or Customer entirely from access to and use of the Products. The duration of such suspension is at the sole determination of IRGame and shall continue until such time as IRGame determines that the applicable User has cured the breach resulting in such suspension. IRGame may also suspend access and use of the Products with respect to any individual User or the Customer account to: (i) prevent damages to, or degradation of, the Products or IRGame’s systems; (ii) comply with any law, regulation, court order, or other governmental request; or (iii) otherwise protect IRGame from potential legal liability. Any such suspension will be to the minimum extent and of the minimum duration required to prevent or terminate the cause of the suspension.
- Termination.
- If IRGame believes in good faith that Customer’s a bility to make payments may be impaired, or if Customer fails to pay any invoice when due and does not make such payment within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from IRGame of such failure, IRGame may, in its sole discretion, either: (i) suspend delivery or performance of any Order, or any remaining balance thereof, until such payment is made; or (ii) terminate any Order, or any remaining balance thereof. In either event, Customer shall remain liable to pay for any Products already received, and any Services already performed.
- Either party may terminate the Agreement or an Order upon a material breach of the Agreement or Order by the other, if the breaching party does not cure the breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the other party specifying the breach. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.3.2 shall automatically terminate all Orders hereunder.
- Either party may terminate this Agreement for convenience upon written notice to the other party, subject to Section 13.4.1, provided however that all Orders existing at the time of such termination of this Agreement shall remain in effect and shall be performed in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (all of which shall survive with respect to such Orders) until expiration or termination of such Orders pursuant to this Agreement or the terms thereof.
- Either party may terminate this Agreement and all Orders upon written notice if the other party ceases conducting business in the normal course, admits its insolvency, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes the subject of any judicial or administrative proceedings in bankruptcy, receivership, or reorganization. Termination shall be effective upon receipt of the written notice.
- Effects of Termination.
- In the event of any termination of the Agreement or an Order, Customer shall pay for all Services provided and all Products ordered as of the effective date of termination of the particular Order, as applicable. In addition, if an Order specifies a term for which IRGame shall provide Services to Customer (e.g., 36 months), and that Order is terminated by IRGame for cause (including nonpayment) or by Customer without cause, then all future, recurring Service fees associated with the remaining term of such Order shall become immediately due and payable, and shall be paid by Customer to IRGame upon the effective date of such termination.
- Upon any termination, Customer’s right to use and access the Products shall immediately cease.
- After the effective date of termination of this Agreement, IRGame shall have no obligation to maintain or provide Customer Data to Customer. IRGame may, in its sole discretion, delete or destroy any Customer Data in its possession, unless IRGame has a legal retention obligation. Prior to the expiration or termination, Customer may request, in writing, that IRGame provide Customer with a copy of the Customer Data in its possession and in the form and format as such Customer Data exists of the effective date of such termination.
- The exercise of the right to terminate this Agreement and any Order shall be in addition to any other right and remedy provided in this Agreement or existing at law or equity that is not otherwise excluded or limited under this Agreement.
- Miscellaneous Provisions.
- FOIA and Public Disclosure Requests. The purpose of the relationship between IRGame and Customer is for Customer to purchase a subscription to the Products, which contain software, content, and information for IT risk management, or regulatory compliance. The SaaS Services, content, and information disclosed is proprietary to IRGame and is an important business asset of IRGame (the “Proprietary Information”). The Proprietary Information consists of protected financial data, trade secrets, and commercially valuable information that, if disclosed, would harm the compet itive position of IRGame. In the event of a request for disclosure of IRGame’s Proprietary Information, Customer will affirmatively respond denying the request pursuant to the terms of this paragraph and will promptly, but no later than five (5) business days after receiving such request, forward the request on to IRGame. Customer shall not release any such Proprietary Information except pursuant to written instructions by IRGame, or a final un-appealable court order, provided that any such disclosure shall be limited to the minimum necessary to be in compliance with the request, based upon the opinion of counsel. If Customer cannot agree to the foregoing, then Customer is not permitted access to the Proprietary Information.
