If any third party initiates a claim arising out of the work performed by Team Members under this Agreement against You or Us for bodily injury, property damage, or death, or if a Team Member files a claim against Client or Us for any type of loss, injury, or damage, You shall immediately notify Us and cooperate and assist Us in the filing of any applicable claim with Our insurance carriers and, where applicable, file for recovery under Your own insurance policy. You agree to timely report to Us all complaints, allegations, or incidents of any tortious misconduct or workplace safety violations, arising out of the work performed by Team Members under this Agreement.

At the option of the non-Breaching Party the termination date shall be the date of the Breach, the date it sends notice, the date notice is received by the Breaching Party, or any later date selected by the non-Breaching Party. In addition to any other Breach defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the following shall be deemed Breaches giving rise to the non-Breaching Party's right of termination (i) a Party's failure to pay any monies when due as required by this Agreement; (ii) a Party's failure to secure and maintain any insurance required by this Agreement; (iii) the filing of a petition for reorganization, bankruptcy, receivership, or insolvency by or against a Party or if a Party makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iv) Your failure to pay Termination Costs.

Both Parties will make available to each other upon request any documents or evidence that either Party has in its possession which relates to any such Claim.

  17. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability.

    1. Mutual Indemnification. Each Party will indemnify, defend, and hold the other Party, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns, harmless from and against any and all costs, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees) (collectively, “Losses”) resulting from any third party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (each, an “Action”) brought against the other Party alleging: (a) any violation of applicable laws, rules, or regulations; (b) Breach of this Agreement; or, (c) gross negligence or willful misconduct.

    2. Effect of Insurance. Each Party hereby waives any claim in its favor against the other Party by way of indemnification or otherwise which may arise during any Term of this Agreement for all loss of or damage to any of its property or for bodily injury, which loss, damage, or bodily injury is recovered under such Party's policy of insurance.

    3. Disclaimer of Damages. In no event shall either Party be liable under this Agreement to the other Party or any third party for consequential, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive or enhanced damages, including, without limitation, lost profits or revenues, diminution in value, replacement goods or services, loss of technology, rights or services, loss of data, or interruption to business, arising out of, or relating to, and/or in connection with any breach of this Agreement, regardless of (i) whether such damages were foreseeable, (ii) whether or not it was advised of the possibility of such damages, and (iii) the legal or equitable theory (contract, negligence, tort or otherwise) upon which the claim is based.

Notice to Listo can be provided by email addressed to Legal@Listoglobal.com.

  19. Waiver. Failure by either Party at any time to require performance by the other Party or to claim a Breach of any provision of this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent Breach or right to require performance.

  20. Assignment. With exception to Our right to subcontract in whole or part the performance of the Services covered by this Agreement to a third-party Listo Partner of our choosing, neither Party may assign its rights or, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, delegate its duties under this Agreement in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that this Agreement may be assigned in whole or in part in connection with a corporate reorganization, consolidation, merger, or sale of substantially all of a Party's assets, without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any other attempted assignment or delegation will be null and void unless the non-assigning Party consents to the assignment. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each Party's successors and permitted assigns.

  21. No Partnership or Agency. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create a partnership or joint venture between You and Us, and no fiduciary duty shall arise from this Agreement. In no event may either Party act as the agent of the other Party unless specifically authorized in writing to do so.

Neither Party will not export, re-export, transfer, or make available, whether directly or indirectly, any regulated item or information to anyone outside the U.S. in connection with this Agreement without first complying with all export control laws and regulations which may be imposed by the U.S. Government and any country or organization of nations within whose jurisdiction You or We operate or do business.

  24. No Third-Party Rights. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement is intended solely for the mutual benefit of Client and Listo, and conveys no right to any third party.

  25. Severability. Should any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement be held to be unenforceable, the balance of this Agreement shall remain in force as if the unenforceable part did not exist.

  26. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed an original and together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

  29. Choice of Law; Dispute Resolution; Severability; Waiver. This Agreement is made under and will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah. Any dispute relating to the terms, interpretation or performance of this Agreement (other than claims for preliminary injunctive relief or other pre-judgment remedies) will be resolved at the request of either Party through binding arbitration. Arbitration will be conducted in Utah County, Utah, under the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The Parties will request that AAA appoint a single arbitrator. The waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default, and will not act to amend or negate the rights of the waiving Party.

  30. Attorney Fees. If either Party refers a matter to a collection agency or brings other action as a result of a Breach of this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such collection proceeding or action shall be entitled to reimbursement for its reasonable attorney's fees and other costs incurred in such collection or action in addition to any other relief to which the Party may be entitled under applicable law.

Either Party will be excused for any failure or delay in its performance under this Agreement due to any cause beyond its reasonable control, including acts of war, acts of God, earthquake, flood, embargo, riot, sabotage, labor shortage or dispute, governmental act or failure of the Internet, provided that the delayed Party (i) gives the other Party prompt notice of such cause if practicable, and (ii) for as long as such force majeure event continues and such Party continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to recommence performance to the extent possible.

  32. Remedies Not Exclusive. The rights and remedies provided herein shall not be exclusive and the Parties shall have rights and remedies now or hereafter provided by law in addition to those provided for in this Agreement. Institution of an action to effect collection of payment of an amount in default or the entry of a judgment in such action shall not be deemed to be an election by Listo nor shall it bar Listo from pursuing other remedies available to it at law or in equity.

  33. Savings. If during any Term of this Agreement, any applicable law shall further alter the obligations of the parties, this Agreement shall be amended or otherwise construed so as to comply with applicable law, giving maximum effect to these Terms.

  38. Electronic Acceptance of Terms. These Terms, the Privacy Policy and Data Processing Addendum and any amendments thereto, by whatever means accepted, will be treated in all manner and respects as the original contract and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were an original signed version thereof, delivered in person. Neither Party will argue that a contract was not formed hereunder based on either (i) the use of electronic means to indicate acceptance of these Terms; or (ii) the fact that any signature or acceptance of these Terms was transmitted or communicated through electronic means; and each Party forever waives any related defense.
