8.3. Remedies. The Receiving Party acknowledges that any unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information will result in irreparable injury to the Disclosing Party, which injury could not be adequately compensated by the payment of money damages. In addition to any other legal and equitable remedies that may be available, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the Receiving Party of the confidentiality obligations hereunder, from any court of competent jurisdiction, without being required to show any actual damage or irreparable harm, prove the inadequacy of its legal remedies, or post any bond or other security.

SentinelOne’s sole indemnification obligations under this Section 10.1 shall be that SentinelOne will, at its expense, defend any such Claim by reason of Customer’s use of the Solutions as permitted hereunder, subject to the requirements of 28 U.S.C. §516, or the applicable state statute governing control of litigation if Customer is a state or local government entity and pay damages, payments, deficiencies, fines, judgments, settlements, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, penalties, interest and disbursements) finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or included in a settlement approved by SentinelOne.

If (i), (ii), or (iii) is not obtainable on commercially reasonable terms, SentinelOne may terminate this TOS, after providing Customer a reasonable time (no less than 30 days) to transition to an alternative solution, unless SentinelOne determines in its reasonable discretion that such use of the Solutions will likely result in infringement and in such case may terminate this TOS effective immediately with concurrent written notice to Customer. In the event of a termination of this TOS pursuant to this Section 10.1, all rights and licenses with respect to the Solutions will immediately cease. SentinelOne’s indemnification obligations do not extend to Claims arising from or relating to: (a) any negligent or willful misconduct of any Customer Indemnitees; (b) any combination of the Solutions (or any portion thereof) by any Customer Indemnitees or any third party with any equipment, software, data or any other materials where the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, unless such combination is the customary, ordinary, and intended use of the Solutions; (c) any modification to the Solutions by any Customer Indemnitees or any third party where the infringement would not have occurred but for such modification; (d) the use of the Solutions by any Customer Indemnitees or any third party in a manner contrary to the terms of this TOS where the infringement would not have occurred but for such use; or (e) the continued use of the Solutions after SentinelOne has provided a substantially equivalent non-infringing software or service. To the extent permitted by law, this Section 10.1 states Customer’s exclusive remedy for any Claims.
10.2. Customer Indemnity. Customer, at its sole expense, will indemnify SentinelOne and its directors, officers, employees and agents or other authorized representatives (“SentinelOne Indemnitees”) from and against any Claim, and be liable for any related damages, payments, deficiencies, fines, judgments, settlements, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, penalties, interest and disbursements) arising out of: (a) Customer’s use of the Solutions in breach of this TOS; (b) Customer’s use of any third party IP; (c) breach or alleged breach of Customer’s obligations under Sections 2.6 (Other Services), 2.7 (Third Party Service) or 4 (Restrictions) herein; or (d) the failure of Customer’s administrators of Customer’s account to maintain the confidentiality of their login information to such account.

10.3. Procedures. The indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations under this Section 10 are conditioned upon the indemnified Party: (i) giving prompt written notice of the Claim to the indemnifying Party once the indemnified Party becomes aware of the Claim (provided that failure to provide prompt written notice to the indemnifying Party will not alleviate an indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Section 10 to the extent any associated delay does not materially prejudice or impair the defense of the related Claims); (ii) granting the indemnifying Party the option to take sole control of the defense (including granting the indemnifying Party the right to select and use counsel of its own choosing) and settlement of the Claim (except that the indemnified Party’s prior written approval will be required for any settlement that reasonably can be expected to require an affirmative obligation of the indemnified Party); and (iii) providing reasonable cooperation to the indemnifying Party and, at the indemnifying Party’s request and expense, assistance in the defense or settlement of the Claim.

Such notice will be deemed to have been given as of the date it is delivered. Notice is effective on the earlier of 5 days from being deposited for delivery or the date on the confirmed email or courier receipt.
13.9. Severability. If any provision of this TOS is deemed invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other provisions of this TOS will nonetheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this TOS is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this TOS so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled.
