The Customer’s obligations under this Section 11.1 are contingent upon Vntrip providing the Customer with prompt written notice of such claim. Vntrip may not settle any claim to which it is seeking or is entitled to indemnification in a manner that would result in an admission of any wrongdoing by the Customer, without the Customer’s prior written approval.
Infringement Claim Remedies
With respect to claims described in Section 11.2(a), in the event that Vntrip’s right to provide the Services is enjoined or in Vntrip’s reasonable opinion is likely to be enjoined, Vntrip may obtain the right to continue providing the Services, replace or modify the Services so that they become non-infringing, or, if such remedies are not reasonably available, terminate the Agreement without liability to the Customer and provide a pro rata refund of any Fees prepaid and unused upon such termination. Sections 11.2 and 11.3 state the entire obligation of Vntrip and its licensors with respect to any alleged or actual infringement or misappropriation of third-party Intellectual Property Rights by the Services.
Limitation Of Liability
Consequential Damages Waiver
Neither party shall be held liable to the other for any incidental, special, punitive, consequential, or other indirect damages, including but not limited to loss of income, data, profits, revenue or business interruption, or cost of substitute services, or other economic loss, regardless of whether such party has been informed of the possibility of such damages, and irrespective of the theory of liability.
Limitation of Liability
Apart from the Customer’s obligation to pay Fees and Charges, neither party’s total liability in connection with the Agreement will exceed the total Fees paid or payable by the Customer in the 12 month period prior to the claim first arising, regardless of the theory of liability. If the Agreement has been in effect for less than 12 months, the total Fees paid or payable shall be annualized.
Exceptions
The limitation of liability in Section 12.2 does not apply to: (a) Vntrip’s obligation to pay Breach Costs (as defined in Section 8.3); (b) either party’s indemnification obligations as provided in Section 11; or (c) either party’s breach of confidentiality obligations under Sections 8.1 and 8.2 (collectively, “Excluded Damages”).

Equitable Relief
Each party acknowledges that a breach by the other party of any confidentiality or Intellectual Property Rights provisions of the Agreement may cause the non-breaching party irreparable harm, for which the award of damages would not be adequate compensation. Consequently, the non-breaching party may seek to enjoin the breaching party from any breach or threatened breach of those provisions, in addition to any other relief to which the non-breaching party may be entitled at law or in equity.

Severability
If any provision of the Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Force Majeure

Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 14.7 will be null and void. “Change of Control” means, with respect to a party (a) the direct or indirect acquisition of either (i) the majority of voting stock of such party; or (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of such party, by another entity in a single transaction or a series of transactions; or (b) the merger of such party with another entity.
