precautions the receiving Party normally employs with respect to its own confidential information), (b) to not divulge any such Confidential Information to any Third Party (other than parties specifically permitted to receive such Confidential Information pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), (c) to not make any use whatsoever at any time of such Confidential Information except as permitted under this Agreement (including Section 8.0), (d) to not derive any commercial benefit (whether direct or indirect) from such Confidential Information (other than pursuant to performance of this Agreement), and (e) to not copy (except as may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement) or reverse engineer any such Confidential Information.
9.2 Exceptions. A Party’s obligation of confidentiality under this Agreement shall not apply to information that the other party can demonstrate by reasonable documentary evidence:
(a) was in its possession prior to receipt from the disclosing Party (or, in the case of Work Product, prior to its generation under this Agreement);
(b) was in the public domain at the time of receipt from the disclosing Party (or, in the case of Work Product, prior to its generation under this Agreement);

11.3 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Party shall be liable to the other for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages arising out this Agreement, except for any liability as an Indemnitor.
11.4 Indemnification Procedures. A Party (the “Indemnitee”) which intends to claim indemnification under this Section 17 shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of any action, claim or other matter in respect of which the Indemnitee or any of its directors, officers or employees intend to claim such indemnification; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice within a reasonable period of time shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitee and its directors, officers or employees and agents shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation, negotiation, compromise, settlement and defense of any action, claim or other matter covered by this indemnification, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitor shall be in charge of and control of any such investigation, negotiation, compromise, settlement and defense and shall have the right to select counsel with respect thereto. In no event shall the Indemnitor or Indemnitee compromise or settle any such matter which admits fault or requires any obligation on the part of Indemnitor without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be bound by any such compromise or settlement absent its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnitee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be represented by counsel of its own selection and at its own cost and expense.

(a) XXXX and Onyx shall secure and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Term of this Agreement and for at least [*] thereafter policies of insurance for (i) worker’s compensation and (ii) general liability having policy limits, deductibles and other terms appropriate to the conduct of XXXX’x and Onyx’s respective businesses, in each case as required by applicable Law and in each Party’s reasonable judgment; provided, however, that such coverage shall not be less than [*] per occurrence, and [*] in annual, aggregate coverage.
(b) The insurance set forth above shall also cover the insured Party’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, but any coverage limits therein shall not operate to limit such Party’s liability hereunder.
(c) Each Party shall provide the other with written evidence of insurance upon the other Party’s written request, and shall give the other Party at least thirty (30) days’ prior, written notice of the cancellation or non-renewal of, and/or adverse, material change in, any such insurance.
12.0 MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Assignment. Onyx may assign this Agreement without XXXX’x consent. XXXX may not delegate, transfer, convey, assign or pledge any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Third Party without the prior written consent of Onyx, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any permitted assignee of a Party shall assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement, and no assignment shall relieve either Party of responsibility for the performance of any of its obligations that accrued prior to the effective date of such assignment. Without limiting the foregoing, if XXXX enters into any transaction or series of transactions that would constitute a change of “control”(as defined in Section 1.1) of XXXX, XXXX shall notify Onyx in writing thereof within five (5) days of having entered

into such agreement(s); provided, however, that if such transaction(s) have not been publicly announced at the time of such notice to Onyx hereunder, Onyx shall treat such notice as Confidential Information of XXXX for purposes of such Agreement, subject to the terms of Article 9.0. Upon any notice from XXXX to Onyx pursuant to this Section 12.1, XXXX or its proposed assignee of this Agreement shall provide Onyx with the opportunity to purchase up to [*] of inventory of Product(s) at the pricing then in effect at the time of such notice, with the amount of such inventory of Product(s) for such up-to-[*] period being determined with reference to the amount [*].

12.3 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.
12.4 Independent Contractors. The relationship between Onyx and XXXX created by this Agreement is one of independent contractors and neither Party shall have the power or authority to bind or obligate the other. Each Party shall use its own discretion and shall have complete and authoritative control over its employees and the details of performing its obligations under this Agreement.

If either Party’s performance is prevented in whole or part by any such event of Force Majeure, such Party shall be excused from performance hereunder during the period of delay of performance resulting from such event of Force Majeure, and the affected Party shall give prompt written notice of the same and its expected duration to the other Party; provided, however, that the affected Party shall take all commercially reasonable steps to remedy the impact of the event of Force Majeure upon its performance hereunder with all reasonable dispatch.
12.6 Entire Agreement; Amendment; Termination of MSA. This Agreement constitutes the full understanding of the Parties and is a final, complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions of their agreement regarding the subject matter hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties agree that effective as of the Effective Date, the MSA is hereby terminated by mutual written agreement solely with respect to any and all Product(s) manufactured or sourced by XXXX for Onyx pursuant to this Agreement, notwithstanding any provisions of the MSA to the contrary; provided, however, that each Party shall continue to be bound by any and all obligations arising under the MSA prior to such effective date of its termination, and provided, further, that the MSA shall remain in effect as to any materials or products developed or manufactured (or in the process of being developed or manufactured) under a purchase order under the MSA that are not Product(s) sourced or manufactured under this Agreement. While purchase orders, invoices or similar routine documents may be used to implement or administer provisions of this Agreement, any provisions of such documents which add to, vary, modify or in conflict with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed inoperative and deleted, and shall have no force or effect of either Party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be deemed controlling. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party.
