Customer will reimburse Riasys Technology for reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Riasys Technology in the course of providing Professional Services. All fees are nonrefundable once paid, except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the applicable SOW or Order.
5.2 Payment. Customer agrees to promptly notify Riasys Technology of any changes to its billing information. If Customer uses a credit card to make payment hereunder, Customer authorizes Riasys Technology to charge such credit card on a recurring basis for all applicable fees and taxes. If Customer is invoiced for fees and taxes, all amounts are payable in Indian Rupees net thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice per the invoice instructions unless otherwise specified.

Except as prohibited by law, Riasys Technology may charge a late fee of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month on past due amounts. Customer will reimburse any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Riasys Technology to collect any amount that is not paid when due.

If Customer is exempt from any applicable taxes, Customer will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Riasys Technology of Customer's tax-exempt status. If Customer requires a purchase order, vendor registration form, or other documentation, such requirement will in no way affect or delay Customer’s obligation to pay any amounts due hereunder.

5.4 Resellers and Payment Processors. Customers may elect to purchase certain Services through an authorized reseller (or one of its affiliates) (each a “Reseller”) or elect to pay for the Services through a third party who processes Customer's payments (each a "Payment Processor").

8.4 Intellectual Property; No Obligation to Disclose. Riasys Technology retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the Confidential Information, including all intellectual property and proprietary rights therein. The disclosure of the Confidential Information to Customer does not grant or convey any right of ownership of such Confidential Information.

11.2 General. Each provision of this Agreement that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages represents an agreed allocation of the risks of this Agreement between the parties. The fees for the Services reflect this allocation of risk and limitation of liability. Customer agrees that these provisions apply even if the remedies are insufficient to cover all of the losses or damages of Customer or fails of its essential purpose. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES. IN SUCH AN EVENT, THIS LIMITATION WILL NOT APPLY TO YOU TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW.
12. Indemnification.
12.1 By Riasys Technology. If Customer has paid fees under this Agreement for the Services, Riasys Technology will defend Customer, Customer's corporate affiliates, and their respective directors, employees, and agents (“Customer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any claims, demands, proceedings, investigations, or suits brought by a third party alleging that Customer’s use of the Subscription Service or Work Product in accordance with this Agreement infringes any third party intellectual property rights (each an “Infringement Claim”). Riasys Technology will indemnify Customer Indemnified Parties for any damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and costs resulting from an Infringement Claim and finally awarded against Customer or agreed to be paid by Customer in a written settlement approved by Riasys Technology in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Riasys Technology will have no obligation under this Section 12.1 to the extent any alleged infringement arises from: (a) Customer’s use of the Subscription Service or Work Product in combination with technology or services not provided by Riasys Technology, if the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination; (b) Customer Content; (c) Riasys Technology’s compliance with designs, specifications, or instructions provided by Customer if such infringement would not have occurred but for such designs, specifications, or instructions; or (d) use by Customer after notice by Riasys Technology to discontinue use. If Customer is enjoined or otherwise prohibited from using any of the Subscription Service or Work Product or a portion thereof based on an Infringement Claim, then Riasys Technology will, at Riasys Technology's sole expense and option, either: (i) obtain for Customer the right to use the allegedly infringing portions of the Subscription Service or Work Product; (ii) modify the allegedly infringing portion of the Subscription Service or Work Product so as to render it non-infringing without substantially diminishing or impairing its functionality; or (iii) replace the allegedly infringing portions of the Subscription Service or Work Product with non-infringing items of substantially similar functionality. If Riasys Technology determines that the foregoing remedies are not commercially reasonable, then Riasys Technology may terminate the applicable Order or SOW and issue a prorated refund of fees prepaid by Customer for the terminated portion of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term. This Section 12.1 sets forth Riasys Technology’s sole liability and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any actual or alleged infringement by Riasys Technology of any third party intellectual property rights.
12.2 By Customer. Customer will defend Riasys Technology, Riasys Technology's corporate affiliates, and their respective directors, employees, and agents (“Riasys Technology Indemnified Parties”) from and against any claims, demands, proceedings, investigations, or suits brought by a third party arising out of: (a) the Customer Content; or (b) Customer’s use of the Subscription Service or Work Product in violation of this Agreement or applicable law. Customer will indemnify Riasys Technology Indemnified Parties for any damages, reasonable attorney’s fees, and costs resulting from a claim that Customer is obligated to defend and finally awarded against Riasys Technology or agreed to be paid by Riasys Technology in a written settlement approved by Customer in writing.
12.3 Conditions. The indemnifying party’s obligations under this Section 12 are contingent on the indemnified party: (a) promptly providing written notice of the claim to the indemnifying party; (b) giving the indemnifying party sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim (provided that any settlement unconditionally releases the indemnified party of all liability and does not make any admissions on behalf of the indemnified party or include payment of any amounts by the indemnified party); and (c) providing the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s expense, all reasonable assistance in connection with such claim. The indemnified party may participate in the defense of the claim at its sole cost and expense.
13. Publicity.

14. Non-Solicitation. During the Term and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Customer will not: (a) hire or attempt to hire any of Riasys Technology’s employees; or (b) solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of Riasys Technology’s employees to terminate their relationship with Riasys Technology. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer will not be precluded from hiring a Riasys Technology employee pursuant to a general solicitation of employment (e.g., posting a job opening) not specifically directed at Riasys Technology employees.
15. Notices. Customer agrees to receive all communications, agreements, and notices from Riasys Technology electronically, including by e-mail, in-app notifications through the Subscription Service, or by posting them on the Site.
