This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to constitute an original and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party hereto and delivered to the other Party. Counterparts delivered in “pdf” form shall be as effective as manually signed counterparts; provided, however, that any Party supplying a pdf counterpart shall promptly forward an originally executed counterpart.

12.14 Survival. Sections 1, 2.2 (solely for seven (7) years), 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 8 (solely for five (5) years), 9, 10, 11.3 and 12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

12.15 Compliance with Laws. Supplier will at all times comply with all applicable standards, provisions and stipulations of all United States federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and ordinances relevant to performance under this Agreement and each Purchase Order, including but not limited to all fair labor, equal opportunity and environmental compliance laws, rules, regulations and ordinances. Supplier shall furnish to Silk Road Medical any information required to enable Silk Road Medical to comply with such laws, rules, and regulations in its use of the Products.

12.16 HIPAA Compliance. Silk Road Medical and Supplier agree that Supplier shall not use or further disclose individually identifiable health information (“PHI”) as defined in and subject to protection under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto (“HIPAA”) other than as permitted by this Agreement or required by law. Supplier shall use appropriate safeguards to prevent the use or disclosure of the PHI other than as permitted by this Agreement, and shall implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that reasonably and appropriately protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Electronic Protected Health Information (“ePHI”) (“Safeguards”). Supplier shall report to Silk Road Medical: (a) any use or disclosure of the PHI not permitted by this Agreement or by law of which Supplier becomes aware; and (b) any Security Incident of which Supplier becomes aware. To the extent that Supplier uses one or more subcontractors or agents to provide services under this Agreement, and such subcontractors or agents receive or have access to the PHI, each such subcontractor or agent shall: (i) enter into a written agreement with Supplier containing the same restrictions and conditions set forth in the business associate provisions of HIPAA that apply through Supplier; and (ii) implement reasonable and appropriate Safeguards to protect ePHI. Supplier agrees to make (A) its internal practices, books and records relating to the use and disclosure of PHI and (B) its policies, procedures and documentation required by the Security Rule relating to the Safeguards, available to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services or his designee to the extent necessary to determine Supplier’s customer’s compliance with HIPAA. Supplier agrees to make available to Silk Road Medical the information in its possession required to provide an accounting of Supplier’s disclosures of PHI as required by HIPAA. Supplier shall use reasonable commercial efforts to mitigate any harmful effect that is known to Supplier of a use or disclosure of PHI by Supplier in violation of this Agreement. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Supplier shall remain bound by the provisions of this Section 12.16 with respect to any PHI that remains in its possession.

12.17 Excluded Provider. Supplier represents and warrants that it, and, to the best of its knowledge, its employees and subcontractors providing the Products are not debarred, excluded, suspended or otherwise ineligible to participate in a federal health care program, nor have they been convicted of any health care related crime (an “Excluded Provider”). Supplier shall promptly notify Silk Road Medical in writing in the event that it becomes aware that any of its employees or subcontractors providing the Products has become an Excluded Provider. Silk Road Medical may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Supplier if Supplier, or any of its employees or subcontractors providing the Products becomes an Excluded Provider.

EXECUTION VERSION

12.18 Force Majeure. Neither Party will be in default under this Agreement, because of any failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement if such failure arises from causes beyond the control of such Party and without the fault or negligence of such Party, including, but not limited to, Acts of God, acts of the public enemy, terrorism, acts of the government, fires, floods, earthquakes, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, failure of carriers, and inability to obtain materials. If it appears that either Party’s performance under this Agreement may be delayed by an event of force majeure, such Party will notify the other Party as soon as practicable, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome the difficulties created thereby and to resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable. During the period that the performance by one of the Parties of its obligations under this Agreement has been suspended by reason of an event of force majeure, the other Party may likewise suspend the performance of all or part of its obligations hereunder (other than the obligation to pay any amounts due and owing) to the extent that such suspension is commercially reasonable.
