Member shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless GPO Personnel and GPO and its Affiliates, and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (each, an "GPO Indemnitee") from and against any and all Losses incurred by such GPO Indemnitee resulting from any Action by a third party that arise out of or result from, or are alleged to arise out of or result from: (a) Member Content, including any Processing of Member Content by or on behalf of GPO or its Affiliates in accordance with these Terms; (b) any other materials or information (including any documents, data, specifications, software, content, or technology) provided by or on behalf of Member or any Authorized User, including GPO’s compliance with any specifications or directions provided by or on behalf of Member or any Authorized User; (c) allegation of facts that, if true, would constitute Member's breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under these Terms; or (d) negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by Member, any Authorized User, or any third party on behalf of Member or any Authorized User, in connection with the AllyIQ Services or these Terms.
    3. Indemnification Procedure. Each party shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any Action for which such party believes it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 12.2, as the case may be. The party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnitee") shall cooperate with the other party (the "Indemnitor") at the Indemnitor's sole cost and expense. The Indemnitor shall promptly assume control of the defense and shall employ counsel to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor's sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnitor shall not settle any Action on any terms or in any manner that adversely affects the rights of any Indemnitee without the Indemnitee's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitor fails or refuses to assume control of the defense of such Action, the Indemnitee shall have the right, but no obligation, to defend against such Action, including settling such Action after giving notice to the Indemnitor, in each case in such manner and on such terms as the Indemnitee may deem appropriate. The Indemnitee's failure to perform any obligations under this Section 12.3 will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations under this Section 12, except to the extent that the Indemnitor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.
    4. Sole Remedy. THIS SECTION 12 SETS FORTH MEMBER'S SOLE REMEDIES AND GPO AND ITS AFFILIATES’ SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED, OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THE ALLYIQ SERVICES, GPO MATERIALS OR ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS INFRINGES, MISAPPROPRIATES, OR OTHERWISE VIOLATES ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

  13. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

    1. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL GPO OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, GPO PERSONNEL, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE GPO MATERIALS OR ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, AND OTHERWISE, FOR ANY: (a) LOSS OF PRODUCTION, USE, BUSINESS, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE; (b) IMPAIRMENT, INABILITY TO USE OR LOSS, INTERRUPTION, OR DELAY OF THE ALLYIQ SERVICES; (c) LOSS, DAMAGE, CORRUPTION, OR RECOVERY OF DATA, OR BREACH OF DATA OR SYSTEM SECURITY; (d) COST OF REPLACEMENT GOODS OR ALLYIQ SERVICES; (e) LOSS OF GOODWILL OR REPUTATION; OR (f) CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, ENHANCED, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PERSONS WERE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES OR SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES WERE OTHERWISE FORESEEABLE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
    2. CAP ON MONETARY LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL THE COLLECTIVE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF GPO AND ITS AFFILIATES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO GPO MATERIALS OR ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS, WHETHER ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, EXCEED THREE TIMES THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID TO GPO UNDER THESE TERMS IN THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR $1,000.00 USD, WHICHEVER IS LESS. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THESE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO MEMBER.

  14. TERM AND TERMINATION.

    1. Term. No minimum term is required by GPO, but may be required by a provider of Third-Party Services.  These Terms continue in effect for as long as Member or any Authorized User accesses or uses the AllyIQ Services.

  15. MISCELLANEOUS.
     
    1. Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in these Terms shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture, or other form of joint enterprise, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.

Any notices to GPO must be sent to GPO’s corporate headquarters address, or such other address that GPO notifies Member is appropriate for notices hereunder, and must be delivered either in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by recognized overnight courier service, and are deemed given upon receipt by GPO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Member hereby consents to receiving electronic communications from GPO. These electronic communications may include notices about applicable fees and charges, transactional information, and other information concerning or related to the AllyIQ Services. Member agrees that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that GPO sends to Member electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing.
    3. Interpretation. For purposes of these Terms: (a) the words "include," "includes," and "including" are deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation"; (b) the word "or" is not exclusive; (c) the words "herein," "hereof," "hereby," "hereto," and "hereunder" refer to these Terms as a whole; (d) words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice-versa; and (e) words denoting any gender include all genders.

The parties intend these Terms to be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted.
    4. Headings. The headings in these Terms are for reference only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
    5. Incorporation. The Terms of Use and all Executed Agreements are hereby incorporated herein by reference. These Terms, the Terms of Use and all Executed Agreements, constitute the complete agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements or representations, written or oral, concerning the subject matter of these Terms.
    6. Assignment. Member shall not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights, or delegate or otherwise transfer any of its obligations or performance under these Terms, in each case whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, without GPO’s prior written consent.

These Terms are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
    7. Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms are 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 upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms; provided, that, each Section of these Terms limiting liability and/or disclaiming warranties, shall apply to all GPO Affiliates in the same manner that they apply to GPO, mutatis mutandis.
    8. Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in these Terms, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from these Terms will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
    9. Severability. If any term or provision of these Terms are invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of these Terms or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify these Terms so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
    10. Change in Law. The parties agree to negotiate changes to these Terms in good faith if there is a change in Law that affects the legality of either party’s performance under these Terms, or a change in a party’s analysis of any such legality.
    11. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Delaware, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
    12. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
    13. Equitable Relief. Each party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach of its obligations under Section 9 or, in the case of Member Section 3 or Section 4, would cause the other party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other party will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise.
