iii. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY DESPITE THE FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ALLOCATE RISKS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN ABBYY AND CLIENT. ABBYY'S PRICING REFLECTS THIS ALLOCATION OF RISKS AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS LIMIT ON LIABILITY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT ABBYY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE WITHOUT SUCH LIMITS.
b. If Client entered into this Agreement with ABBYY Europe GmbH, the following rules shall apply to Client instead of Section 11.1(a) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:
i. ABBYY’s statutory liability for damages shall be limited as follows: (1) ABBYY shall be liable only up to the amount of damages as typically foreseeable at the time of entering into the purchase agreement in respect of damages caused by a slightly negligent breach of a material contractual obligation required for the appropriate execution of the agreement and (2) ABBYY shall not be liable for damages caused by a slightly negligent breach of a non-material contractual obligation. ABBYY shall not bear any liability beyond the limits set above in this Section 11, especially not in cases of consequential damages, loss of revenue or profits, punitive damages or any other special damages.

11.2. Defense and Indemnification by Client.
a. Defense of Claims by Client. Client shall defend ABBYY and its Representatives, and each of its and their respective Representatives, officers, directors, employees, successors, and assignees (each, an "ABBYY Indemnitee") against any allegation, suit or claim that directly or indirectly arises out of or relates to any of the following (individually, a "Claim", and collectively, the "Claims"):
i. Any information that Client provides to ABBYY, including any Processing of Uploaded Data by or on behalf of ABBYY in accordance with this Agreement;
ii. Any other materials or information (including any documents, data, specifications, software, content, or technology) provided by Client or any Authorized User, including ABBYY’s compliance with any specifications or directions provided by Client or any Authorized User to the extent prepared without any contribution by ABBYY;
iii. Client’s breach of any of Client’s representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Agreement; or
iv. Any act or omission by Client, any Authorized User / End User, Client’s Representatives, or any third party on Client’s behalf, including any negligent acts or omissions, willful misconduct, or strict liability thereof, including, but not limited to acts or omissions that infringe, misappropriate, or violate any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights.
b. Indemnification by Client. Client shall indemnify and hold harmless each ABBYY Indemnitee against any damages, liabilities, assessments, losses, costs, and other expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by that ABBYY Indemnitee relating to any Claim, including:
i. All damages, liabilities, assessments, losses, costs, and other expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses) finally awarded against an ABBYY Indemnitee in any proceeding relating to any Claim;
ii. All out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by an ABBYY Indemnitee in connection with the defense of any Claim (other than attorneys’ fees and costs incurred without Client’s consent after Client has accepted defense of such Claim); and
iii. If any Claim is settled between Client and the third party, all amounts agreed to by Client as part of such settlement.
c. Process. ABBYY shall give Client a reasonable notice of each Claim for which it seeks indemnity, provided that failure to provide such notice will not release Client from any obligations hereunder except to the extent that Client is materially prejudiced by such failure. ABBYY will reasonably cooperate with Client in the defense of each Claim, at Client’s expense. Client may not use any counsel that would have a conflict of interest in representing ABBYY’s interests to defend any Claim. An ABBYY Indemnitee may participate in the defense of a Claim at its own expense. Client will not settle any Claim without the relevant ABBYY Indemnitees’ prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. Client shall ensure that any Claim settlement Client makes is confidential, except where not permitted by Applicable Law. Client’s duty to defend is independent of Client’s duty to indemnify.
11.3. Indemnification by ABBYY.
a. Defense. Subject to section 11.1, ABBYY shall defend Client and Representatives, and each of its and their respective Representatives, officers, directors, successors, and assignees (each "Client’s Indemnitee") against any allegation or claim that Service when used in accordance with the terms in this Agreement, violates the Intellectual Property Rights of a third party in the United States ("IP Claim").

THE FOREGOING SETS FORTH ABBYY’S EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY FOR INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS STATED IN THIS SECTION 11.3 HEREIN.
c. Process. Client shall give ABBYY reasonable notice of each claim for which it seeks indemnity, provided that failure to give such notice will not release ABBYY from any obligations hereunder except to the extent that ABBYY is materially prejudiced by such failure. Client will reasonably cooperate with ABBYY in the defense of each IP Claim, at ABBYY’s expense. ABBYY may not use any counsel that would have a conflict of interest in representing Client’s interests to defend any IP Claim. Client’s Indemnitee may participate in the defense of an IP Claim at its own expense. ABBYY will not settle any IP Claim without the relevant Client’s Indemnitees’ prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. ABBYY shall ensure that any IP Claim settlement ABBYY makes is confidential, except where not permitted by Applicable Law. ABBYY’s duty to defend is independent of ABBYY’s duty to indemnify.
