Additionally, You represent and warrant that you (and any third party you contract with to prepare Products for your Restaurants, if applicable): (1) will comply with all Applicable Laws related to Product food safety, including time or temperature controls and Product packaging and merchantability, including ensuring that Products are prepared with a consistent standard of the highest quality and are not adulterated or misbranded, (2) will not violate any obligations to any third party by entering into and performing under this Agreement, and (3) have the right to use, and allow our use of your authorized Third Party Vendor accounts, including the right to appoint us as your agent to access and use your accounts as described in this Agreement.

6. Indemnity; Limits of Liability

a. Unless prohibited by Applicable Law, you agree to indemnify and defend (at our option) Company and our affiliates (including their respective officers, directors, employees and agents), and hold them harmless against any claims or legal proceedings (including actions by government authorities), liabilities, damages and costs (including reasonable attorney fees and final settlement amounts) arising out of or relating to: (i) the Products (including any claims relating to product and food safety or taxes owed in connection with the sale of the Products), (ii) of illness, injury, death, or damage as a result of the consumption or use of any Product, (iii) risks against which you are insured or required to be insured against pursuant to this Agreement, (iv) allegation that Your Materials infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate a third party’s intellectual property or publicity rights, or (v) an allegation that, if true, would constitute your breach of this Agreement.

b. YOU HEREBY RELEASE US AND OUR AFFILIATES FOR ANY LOSSES, CLAIMS (KNOWN OR UNKNOWN), EXPENSES, OR LIABILITY RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING LOST RESTAURANT REVENUE. FURTHER, YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD US AND OUR AFFILIATES HARMLESS FOR ANY LOSSES, COSTS AND EXPENSES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES, CLAIM, DEMAND OR ACTION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES. THIS OBLIGATION SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF THE AGREEMENT. To the extent applicable, you agree to waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which asserts that “a general release does not extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the released party.”

c. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, OR SIMILAR DAMAGES, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION UPON WHICH THEY ARE BASED, INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL OR LOST PROFITS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OCCURRING. THE TOTAL, AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF EACH PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU DURING THE FIRST 12 MONTHS OF THIS AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 6(C) WILL APPLY TO EITHER PARTY’S OBLIGATIONS TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND, OR HOLD HARMLESS IN THIS AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION WILL LIMIT A PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR UNLAWFUL ACTIVITY.

7. Insurance. At your sole expense, during the Term, you agree to maintain commercial general liability insurance policy in the amount of at least one million dollars per occurrence and two million dollars  in the annual aggregate (which includes products-completed operations, spoilage, and food borne illness coverage). All policies must (i) name or cover Company and its affiliates as an additional insured and (ii) be primary insurance and any insurance carried by Company or its affiliates will be excess insurance only. If we ask, you agree to furnish us with a certificate of insurance in such coverage, such certificate to be in a form reasonably acceptable to us.

8. Confidentiality. Except as required by applicable law, each party (“Receiving Party”) agrees that (a) it will use Confidential Information (defined below) of the other party (“Disclosing Party”) solely for the purpose of the Agreement and (b) it will not disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any third party other than the Receiving Party's employees or agents, on a need-to-know basis, who are bound by obligations of nondisclosure and restricted use at least as strict as those contained in this Agreement, provided that Receiving Party remains liable for any breach of the confidentiality provisions of the Agreement by its employees or agents. The Receiving Party will protect the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the same manner that it protects the confidentiality of its own proprietary and Confidential Information, but in no event using less than a reasonable standard of care. In the event Receiving Party receives a subpoena or other administrative or judicial demand for any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, then the Receiving Party will give the Disclosing Party prompt written notice of such subpoena or demand and allow Disclosing Party to assert any available defenses to disclosure. Upon request by the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party will return or destroy all copies of any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party will at all times remain the property of that Disclosing Party. The provisions of this Section will expire three (3) years after the expiration or termination of the Agreement, except with respect to Confidential Information that constitutes “trade secrets” under applicable law for which this Section will survive indefinitely. The existence of this Agreement will constitute our Confidential Information and must not be disclosed without our consent. The parties must mutually agree on all press related to this Agreement. “Confidential Information” means information or materials that: (a) are disclosed in writing or orally and are either marked or identified as “confidential” or “proprietary” by the disclosing party at the time of disclosure; or (b) the receiving party knows or has reason to know, by the nature or circumstances surrounding their disclosure, should be treated as confidential, including technical, business, marketing, product and financial information, in any form or format; provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) is in or enters the public domain through no act or omission of the receiving party; (ii) a party lawfully received from a third party without restriction on use or disclosure and without breach of a non-disclosure obligation or expectation of confidentiality; (iii) a party knew prior to receiving such Confidential Information from the party who owns it and without restriction as to use or disclosure; or (iv) a party independently developed without use of, or access to, any Confidential Information.

9. Miscellaneous. The parties agree this is a nonexclusive agreement. You agree that we may send any notices to the email address you provide us. All notices to us must be sent to the address in the introductory paragraph above. The parties are independent contractors. The parties are not partners or joint venturers with each other and nothing herein shall be construed to make them partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as such on either of them. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties regarding the subject matter herein, and supersedes all prior and related contemporaneous agreements and understandings with respect thereto (meaning prior agreements that may exist between Company and you related to virtual brands or restaurants are hereby superseded and terminated). Each party has certain rights under applicable laws that cannot be limited by this Agreement or any contract; this Agreement will not restrict those rights. If a party breaches this Agreement, and the other party does not take immediate action in response to such breach, the nonbreaching party is not waiving any rights they may have, including the right to take action in the future. If a portion of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will remain in effect. This Agreement is between only you and us; this Agreement does not create any legal rights or obligations for any third party, even if others benefit from that relationship under this Agreement. This Agreement will be governed by California law, excluding applicable conflict of laws rules. In event of any conflict between the order form or this Agreement, the order form shall prevail.

10. Arbitration. Except for claims or disputes related to protecting a party’s intellectual property, each party agrees that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be settled by binding confidential arbitration before a single arbitrator, and not in a court of law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written demand for arbitration as specified in such rules. Unless the parties agree in writing otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the city of Los Angeles, California. The award and decision of the arbitrator will be conclusive and binding upon all parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will have the right to include in the award any relief which they deem proper in the circumstances, only to the extent permitted by this Agreement, provided that the arbitrator will not have the authority to award exemplary or punitive damages. The arbitrator will award the prevailing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. Each party agrees that arbitration will be conducted on an individual, not a class-wide, basis and that any arbitration proceeding between you and us and/or our affiliates will not be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding involving us or any other person or entity. The parties agree to this Agreement as of the Effective Date.
