THIS SECTION 13.1 SETS FORTH NARVAR’S SOLE LIABILITY AND COMPANY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ALLEGED OR ACTUAL INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS BY THE PLATFORM OR THE SERVICES.

13.2 Indemnification by Company. Company will defend (or settle), indemnify and hold harmless Narvar from and against any damages and liabilities (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) awarded in a final judgement against Narvar, and amounts agreed to in settlement with respect to each of the foregoing, to the extent arising from a third party claim or suit against Narvar that: (i) the Company Data or its use by Narvar in accordance with this Agreement infringes, misappropriates or violates a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation, (ii) is based on Company’s, an Authorized Employee’s, or User’s use of the Services to the extent such use was not in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) is based on the manufacture, sale, distribution or marketing of any Company’s products or services; or (iv) is based on a breach of Section 3.2 (Restrictions) by Company. Company’s obligations under this Section 13.2 are contingent upon: (a) Narvar providing Company with prompt written notice of such claim (but in any event notice in sufficient time for Company to respond without prejudice); (b) Company having the exclusive right to defend or settle such claim; and (c) Narvar providing all reasonably necessary cooperation to Company, at Company’s expense, in the defense and settlement of such claim.
