6.         Neither party will be liable for any costs nor damages due to nonperformance under this Agreement arising out of any cause or event not within the reasonable control of such party and without its fault or negligence.

9.         The COP agrees to defend, at its own expense, and to indemnify and hold harmless the Licensee and its officers, agents, and employees from and against all judgments, claims, damages, suits, liabilities, settlements, costs and demands, including reasonable attorneys' fees, suffered or incurred by the Licensee as a result of any claim that the data and information provided within the scope of this Agreement infringes any U.S. patents, U.S. copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights of third parties, provided that the COP is promptly notified in writing of such claim. The COP will have the sole right to control the defense of all such claims, lawsuits and other proceedings including the right to settle the same. In no event will the Licensee settle any such claim, lawsuit or proceeding without the COP's prior express written approval. The Licensee will cooperate with the COP in a reasonable way to facilitate the settlement or defense of such claim. The foregoing states the entire liability of the COP with respect to infringement of any intellectual property rights by the data or information or any parts thereof. The COP's obligations under this paragraph will survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

 

The foregoing provisions of this Section will not apply to the extent that such infringement or unauthorized use arises from, or could have been avoided except for (1) the Licensee's modification of the data and information or use thereof in a manner not contemplated by this Agreement, (2) the failure of the Licensee to use any corrections or modifications made available by the COP, (3) data, information, materials, instructions, or specifications provided by or on behalf of the Licensee, or (4) the use of the data and information in combination with any data and information not provided by the COP, unless the COP's data and information infringes the third party's intellectual property rights in the absence of such combination.
