9.1    Client.  Client agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Rock My World, Inc., its directors, officers, employees, and agents, and defend any action brought against same with respect to any third party claim, demand, cause of action, debt or liability (“Claim”), including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent based upon a claim (a)  arising as a result of a Site, except to the extent Rock My World, Inc. is required to indemnify Client under Section 9.2; or (b) arising as a result of Client’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Client made in this Agreement.

9.2    Rock My World, Inc.. 

(a)    Subject to Client’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Rock My World, Inc. agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Client, its directors, officers, employees, and agents, and defend any action brought against same with respect to any Claim, to the extent based upon a claim (i) by a copyright owner alleging that the digital audio transmission of API Content made through the Services on a Site infringes the Intellectual Property Rights of such copyright owner or (ii) that the Player or Services infringes or violates the Intellectual Property Rights of third parties.

(b)    In the event of an infringement Claim against Client with respect to the Player or Services, or in the event Rock My World, Inc. believes such a Claim is likely, Rock My World, Inc. may, at its option (i) appropriately modify or substitute the Player or Services licensed hereunder, so long as such modification or substitution does not materially alter the functionality of the Player or Services; or (ii) obtain a license with respect to the applicable third party Intellectual Property Rights.  In the event neither of the foregoing alternatives is commercially practicable, Rock My World, Inc. shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and Client’s licenses hereunder. 

(c)    Rock My World, Inc. shall have no obligation or liability for (i) use of the Player or Services other than the then-current, unaltered version of the Player or Services, unless the portion giving rise to the Claim is also in the then-current, unaltered version; (ii) use, operation or combination of the Player or Services, with non_Rock My World, Inc. programs, data, equipment, documentation or marks if such Claim would have been avoided but for such use, operation or combination; (iii) the Client’s or its agent's activities after Rock My World, Inc. has notified Client that it believes such activities may result in a Claim; (iv) compliance with the Client’s designs, specifications or instructions; or (v) modification of the Player or Services if such Claim would have been avoided but for such modification.

(d)    The obligations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall constitute Rock My World, Inc.’s entire liability and Client’s sole remedy for any breach of Sections 5.7(a) and 5.7(b) or any actual or alleged infringement claim. 

9.3    Procedure.  In case any Claim is at any time brought against a party or its affiliates (or any of their respective employees, officers, directors or representatives) (an “Indemnified Party”) and such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9, the party obligated to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) will defend such Claim, at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Party, using counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party but subject to the Indemnified Party’s reasonable approval. If the Indemnified Party fails to take timely action to defend such a Claim after having received written notice from the Indemnified Party of such failure, the Indemnified Party may defend such a Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party fully advised with respect to such Claims and the progress of any suits, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, at the Indemnified Party’s expense, in any suit instituted against it and to select attorneys to defend it, which attorneys will be independent of any attorneys chosen by the Indemnifying Party relating to such Claim or related Claim. The Indemnifying Party will not settle, compromise or otherwise enter into any agreement regarding the disposition of any Claim against the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent and approval of the Indemnified Party, unless such settlement involves only the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party.

10.    Dispute Resolution

10.1  The following binding dispute resolution procedures shall be the exclusive means used by the parties to resolve all disputes and claims arising out of or relating to the Agreement (collectively, “Disputes”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, pending conclusion of the dispute resolution process herein prescribed, either party may seek and obtain an injunction or other appropriate relief from a court to preserve or protect its Proprietary Information or Intellectual Property Rights with respect to any matter.

10.2  The party seeking resolution of a Dispute, shall give the other party written notice describing the nature of the Dispute and the relief sought.  Within 30 days following delivery of such Dispute notice, executives of each party will meet and attempt to resolve the Dispute.  If the Dispute is not finally resolved within 30 days (or such other period of time as the parties may agree to in writing) following delivery of such Dispute notice, then the party seeking relief may then initiate arbitration.

10.3  Any arbitration action shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  The parties agree that any arbitration action shall be heard and decided by one arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) to be agreed upon by the parties.  If the parties cannot agree upon an Arbitrator within 14 days of delivery or the demand for arbitration (“Demand”) (or such other time period as the parties may agree to in writing), the parties agree to the appointment of a single arbitrator pursuant to R-11(a) and (b) of the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules or whatever AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules are then in effect for the appointment of a single arbitrator.

10.4  The Arbitrator shall be bound by the laws of the State of California and all rules of that jurisdiction relating to discovery and the admissibility of evidence, including, without limitation, all relevant privileges and the attorney work product doctrine.  The Arbitrator shall have the power to grant equitable relief when appropriate and available under applicable law; however, the parties expressly agree that the Arbitrator shall be prohibited from awarding any costs, damages, or amounts prohibited pursuant to Section 6.4.  The Arbitrator shall issue a written opinion containing findings of fact and conclusions of law within 30 days after the arbitration proceeding is concluded.  The arbitration award shall be final, binding and non-appealable, and may be entered and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.  If any provision of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable (in whole or in part) by the Arbitrator, the parties agree that the Arbitrator shall amend or delete such provision so as to effectuate the intent of such provision and of this Agreement to the maximum extent that it is enforceable.

10.5  The Prevailing Party to the arbitration shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing party.  The “Prevailing Party” is the party that is awarded judgment or other legal or equitable relief as a result of the arbitration or the party receiving or entitled to receive a payment of money or the party defeating a claim for receipt or payment of money from the other party in settlement of the Dispute.  If both parties receive a judgment or other award of relief, the Arbitrator shall determine which party, if any, is the Prevailing Party, or shall determine an appropriate allocation of costs and attorneys’ fees between the parties, in each case taking into consideration the merits and amounts of the claims asserted by each party, the relative values of the judgments, or other forms of relief received by each party, the relative equities between the parties, and the parties’ respective contributions to the length and expense or arbitration or proceeding.

10.6  THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN SUCH PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.  FURTHER, CLIENT AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING AND THAT IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISO IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION SECTION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.

11.    Miscellaneous

11.1  Assignment/Binding Agreement. Either party shall have the right to assign this Agreement upon written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, no such consent shall be necessary in the event of a reorganization, merger or acquisition of substantially all of a party’s stock, assets or business.  Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon and will insure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

11.2  Independent Contractor.  The parties hereto expressly understand and agree that each party is an independent contractor in the performance of each and every part of this Agreement.  Nothing herein shall create an express or implied partnership, agency, joint venture, employment or other association between the parties.  Each party shall be solely responsible for all of its respective employees and agents and its labor costs and expenses arising in connection therewith and for any and all claims, liabilities or damages that may arise on account of that party’s activities, or those of its employees or agents, in the performance of this Agreement.  Except as may be expressly agreed in writing, neither party has the authority, right or ability to bind or commit the other party in any way and will not attempt to do so or imply that it may do so.

11.4  Limitation on Claims.  Except for the right of indemnification, no action arising out of any breach or claimed breach of this Agreement or transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be brought or raised by either party more than one year after the cause of action has accrued.  For purposes of this Agreement, a cause of action will be deemed to have accrued when a party knew or reasonably should have known of the breach or claimed breach.

11.5  Force Majeure.  Neither party will incur any liability to the other party on account of any loss or damage resulting from any delay or failure to perform all or any part of this Agreement if such delay or failure is caused, in whole or in part, by events, occurrences, or causes beyond the control and without negligence of the parties.  Such events, occurrences, or causes will include, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war or terrorism, earthquake, fire and explosions, but the inability to meet financial obligations is expressly excluded.

11.6  Waiver.  Any waiver of the provisions of this Agreement or of a party’s rights or remedies under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective.  Failure, neglect, or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time, will not be construed and will not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party’s right to take subsequent action.  No exercise or enforcement by either party of any right or remedy under this Agreement will preclude the enforcement by such party of any other right or remedy under this Agreement or that such party is entitled by law to enforce.

11.7  Severability.  If any term, condition, or provision in this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the parties shall endeavor in good faith to agree to such amendments that will preserve, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Agreement.  If the parties fail to agree on such an amendment, such invalid term, condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

11.8  Integration.  This Agreement (including the Order Form and any Statements of Work and addenda hereto signed by both parties or accepted by Client through any electronic click to accept mechanism, which are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement) contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous communications, representations, understandings, and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to said subject matter.  This Agreement may not be amended except by a writing signed by authorized representatives of both parties.

11.10 Governing Law.  This Agreement will be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the United States of America, without regard to conflict of law principles.  The parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California for resolution of any disputes arising out of this Agreement.

11.11 Remedy.  The parties acknowledge that the other party would have no adequate remedy at law to enforce Section 7.  In the event of a breach by either party of such Section, the non-breaching party shall have the right to obtain injunctive or other similar relief, as well as any other relevant damages, without the requirement of posting bond or other similar measures.

11.12 Counsel.  Each party has been represented by its own counsel in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement or had the opportunity to consult with its own counsel but chose not to do so, and, consequently, each party hereby waives the application of any rule of law that would otherwise be applicable in connection with the interpretation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any rule of law to the effect that any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against the party whose counsel prepared this Agreement 

11.13     Headings.  The captions and headings in this Agreement are intended only for convenience, and will in no event be construed to define, limit or describe the scope or intent of this Agreement, or of any provision of this Agreement, nor in any way affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
