8. Confidentiality

A. Definition. “Confidential Information” means any and all business, technical
and financial information or material of a party, whether revealed orally,
visually, or in tangible or electronic form, that is not generally known to the
public, which is disclosed to or made available by one party (the “Disclosing
Party”) to the other, or which one party becomes aware of pursuant to this
Agreement (the “Receiving Party”). The AdColony SDK is AdColony’s Confidential
Information, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain
confidential. The failure of a Disclosing Party to designate as “confidential”
any such

information or material at the time of disclosure shall not result in a loss of
status as Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party. Confidential
Information shall not include information which: (i) is in or has entered the
public domain through no breach of this Agreement or other act by a Receiving
Party; (ii) a Receiving Party rightfully knew prior to the time that it was
disclosed to a Receiving Party hereunder; (iii) a Receiving Party received
without restriction from a third-party lawfully possessing and lawfully entitled
to disclose such information without breach of this Agreement; or (iv) was
independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to
such information.

B. Use and Disclosure Restrictions. The Receiving Party shall not use the
Confidential Information except as necessary to exercise its rights or perform
its obligations under this Agreement, and shall not disclose the Confidential
Information to any third party, except to those of its employees,
subcontractors, and advisers that need to know such Confidential Information for
the purposes of this Agreement, provided that each such employee, subcontractor,
and advisor is subject to a written agreement that includes binding use and
disclosure restrictions that are at least as protective of the Confidential
Information as those set forth herein. The Receiving Party will use at least the
efforts such party ordinarily uses with respect to its own confidential
information of similar nature and importance to maintain the confidentiality of
all Confidential Information in its possession or control, but in no event less
than reasonable efforts. The foregoing obligations will not restrict the
Receiving Party from disclosing any Confidential Information required by
applicable law; provided that, the Receiving Party must use reasonable efforts
to give the Disclosing Party advance notice thereof (i.e., so as to afford
Disclosing Party an opportunity to intervene and seek an order or other relief
for protecting its Confidential Information from any unauthorized use or
disclosure) and the Confidential Information is only disclosed to the extent
required by law. The Receiving Party shall return all of the Disclosing Party’s
Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party or destroy the same, no later
than fifteen (15) days after Disclosing Party’s request, or when Receiving Party
no longer needs Confidential Information for its authorized purposes hereunder.

1.  Representations and Warranties of Developer. Developer represents, warrants
and covenants to AdColony that: (a) it has all necessary rights, title, and
interest in and to the Developer Apps, and it has obtained all necessary

this Agreement, including to allow AdColony to sell and insert the AdColony
Ads as contemplated herein; (b) it shall not use the AdColony Platform to
collect or discern any personally identifiable information of end users, or
use the data received through the AdColony Platform to re-identify an
individual; and (c) the Developer Apps will comply with the Developer Apps

third party right, including any intellectual property, privacy, or
publicity rights.

or proceeding initiated by a third party arising from or in connection with any
breach of Developer’s obligations, representations or warranties set forth in

AdColony’s infringement or misappropriation of a third party U.S. copyright,
trademark or trade secret by the use of the AdColony Platform and/or the
AdColony SDK by Developer as permitted hereunder; provided that, Developer: (a)
promptly notifies AdColony in writing of the claim, except that any failure to

sole control of the defense and/or settlement of the claim; and (c) reasonably
cooperates with AdColony in connection with such claim at AdColony’s cost and
expense. In addition, if the use of the AdColony Property by Developer has

of infringement, AdColony may at its option and expense (i) procure for
Developer the right to continue using the AdColony Property as set forth
hereunder; (ii) replace or modify the AdColony Property to make it non-
infringing so long as the AdColony Property has substantially equivalent
functionality; or (iii) if options (i) or (ii) are not reasonably practicable,
terminate this Agreement. AdColony shall have no liability or obligation under
this Section with respect to any claim if such claim is caused in whole or in
part by (x) compliance with designs, data, instructions, or specifications
provided by Developer; (y) modification of the AdColony Property by any party
other than AdColony without AdColony’s express consent; or (z) the combination,
operation, or use of the AdColony Property with other applications, portions of
applications, product(s), data or services where the AdColony Property would not
by itself be infringing unless AdColony has required or expressly allowed such
combination, operation, or use. THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS CONTAINED IN THIS
SECTION 11 ARE DEVELOPER’S SOLE REMEDY FOR THIRD PARTY INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS
RELATING TO ADCOLONY’S SDK AND THE ADCOLONY PLATFORM. 12. Limitation of
Liability. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREIN AND
BREACHES OF SECTIONS 2 and 8, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO OTHER PARTY FOR

NOT A PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES. EXCEPT WITH
RESPECT TO INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREIN AND BREACHES OF SECTIONS 2 and 8,
IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED
THE TOTAL DEVELOPER PAYMENT PAYABLE TO DEVELOPER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BY
ADCOLONY IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE
CLAIM.
