   1. Software Warranty. Chef warrants that the Software will perform in all material respects as specified in its accompanying Documentation under normal use for sixty (60) days after initial receipt of or access to the Software, as applicable (the “Specifications Conformity Warranty Period”). This warranty extends only to End User. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, End User’s exclusive remedy for a breach of this limited warranty is to return any allegedly defective Software and Chef, at its option, will replace it or refund any fee paid for the Softwareprovided that End User gives Chef written notice of the noncompliance within the Specifications Conformity Warranty Period. Chef’s sole obligation under the limited warranty set forth in this Section 8(a) is to use its reasonable efforts to correct or replace any non-conforming Software once Chef has been made aware of such non-conformance or, in Chef’s sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement (in which event, End User will immediately stop using the Software) and refund the License Fees paid by End User to Chef up through the effective date of such termination.
   2. Exclusions. The warranties under Section 7(a) do not apply to any noncompliance resulting from your operation or use of the Software other than in accordance with applicable Documentation or this Agreement. Further, Chef does not warrant that the Software or Deliverables or any other items furnished by Chef under this Agreement or any Order Form are free from non-material bugs, errors, defects or deficiencies.
   3. Disclaimer. EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY IN SECTION 7(a) ABOVE, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES CONCERNING THE USE, INTER-OPERABILITY, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE.

CHEF DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET END USER’S REQUIREMENTS OR THAT THE OPERATION THEREOF WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED.
8. Indemnification.
   1. Indemnification by Chef. Chef will indemnify End User and will pay any costs or damages that may be finally awarded in respect of any third party claims, proceedings, costs or damages, including actual attorneys’ fees and court costs and expenses in any such third party action, proceeding or case, and agreed settlements to the extent that the Software infringes any United States patent, or any copyright, trademark or other proprietary right of such third party; provided that: (a) End User promptly notifies Chef of the claim; (b) End User gives Chef all necessary information regarding the claim; (c) End User reasonably cooperates with Chef; and (d) allows Chef to control the defense and all related settlement negotiations; provided that, if any settlement requires a non-monetary obligation of an indemnified party (other than ceasing use of the Deliverable or Software), then such settlement will require the End User’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
   2. Injunction. If an injunction is sought or obtained against End User’s use of Deliverables as a result of a third party infringement claim or in Chef’s opinion is likely to be enjoined, Chef may, at its sole option and expense, (a) procure for End User the right to continue using the affected Deliverable or Software, (b) replace or modify the affected Software with substantially equivalent software functionality so that it does not infringe, or, if either (a) or (b) is not commercially feasible in Chef’s opinion, (c) terminate the License and promptly refund End User a pro-rata portion of any prepaid License Fees based on the remainder of the License Term.

   1. Indirect Damages. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED SPECIFICALLY IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY, ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR FOR THE COST OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE SOFTWARE ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE PROVIDED BY CHEF HEREUNDER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES OR OTHER LOSSES FOR LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, COMPUTER FAILURE OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF AND REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.

The receiving party of any Confidential Information of the other party agrees not to use such Confidential Information for any purpose except as necessary to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. The receiving party will protect the secrecy of and prevent disclosure and unauthorized use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information using the same degree of care that it takes to protect its own confidential information and in no event will use less than reasonable care.

If End User chooses in its sole discretion to enable the Phone-Home Features, for the time that the Phone-Home Features are enabled, End User consents to Chef having remote access to the Software for the sole purpose of receiving data and information directly from the Software regarding End User’s use of the Software (i.e., when End User installs an update or upgrade), as well as any Software bugs, errors, and other similar technical support issues. Chef will only use such Phone-Home Features for the purposes of (i) supporting the Software; and (ii) to gather information about how End User uses the Software, which may be combined with information about how others use the Software, in order to help Chef better understand trends and End Users’ needs in order to better consider new features (“Remote Access”). Chef will use End User Data received from the Phone-Home Features solely in aggregate, anonymized form and solely for the purposes of improving the Software and End User’s use experience.

15. General. Neither party will be liable for any delay or failure in performance (except for any payment obligations) due to causes beyond its reasonable control. Neither party may assign this Agreement except upon the advance written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, reorganization, acquisition or other transfer of all or substantially all of such party’s voting securities or the assets governed by this Agreement; provided, that: (a) the assignor or assignee provides reasonably prompt written notice of such assignment to the non-assigning party; and (b) the assignee is capable of fully performing the obligations of the assignor under the Agreement. Any attempt to assign this Agreement, without such consent, will be null and of no effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each party’s successors and permitted assigns. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, that provision of the Agreement will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. The failure by either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. All waivers must be in writing and signed by both parties. All notices permitted or required under this Agreement will be in writing and will be delivered in person, by confirmed facsimile, overnight courier service or mailed by first class, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid. Such notice will be deemed to have been given upon receipt. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Washington, U.S.A., excluding its conflicts of law rules. The parties expressly agree that the UN Convention for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) or the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) will not apply. Any amendment or modification to the Agreement must be in writing signed by both parties. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements regarding its subject.
