On the expiration or termination of the Agreement, the receiving Party shall return to the disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies. Each Party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and will expire five (5) years from the date first disclosed to the receiving Party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

9.1 AppOmni Indemnification. AppOmni shall defend Customer from any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (“Third-Party Claim”) alleging that the Services infringe such third-party’s U.S. intellectual property rights and shall pay all amounts finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to in settlement; provided that the foregoing obligation shall not apply with respect to any Third-Party Claim based in whole or in part upon: (i) AppOmni’s compliance with Customer’s specifications; (ii) Customer’s use of the Services in combination with data, software, hardware, equipment, or technology not provided or authorized by AppOmni; or (iii) Third-Party Products.

12.7 Assignment. Customer may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of AppOmni.

12.10 Equitable Relief. Customer acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach of any of its obligations under Section 6 or Section 2.3, would cause AppOmni irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, AppOmni 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.
12.11 Anticorruption Laws. Customer acknowledges that it is familiar with and understands the provisions of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA“) and the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 (“UKBA”) and agrees to comply with its terms as well as any provisions of local law related thereto. Customer further understands the provisions relating to the FCPA and UKBA’s prohibitions regarding the payment or giving of anything of value, including but not limited to payments, gifts, travel, entertainment and meals, either directly or indirectly, to an official of a foreign government or political party for the purpose of influencing an act or decision in his or her official capacity or inducing the official to use his or her party’s influence with that government, to obtain or retain business involving the Deliverables. Customer agrees to not violate or knowingly let anyone violate the FCPA or UKBA, and Customer agrees that no payment it makes will constitute a bribe, influence payment, kickback, rebate, or other payment that violates the FCPA, the UKBA, or any other applicable anticorruption or antibribery law.
