Client shall indemnify and defend Consultant and its officers, directors, employees, distributors, suppliers, end users and agents from and against any loss, cost, damage, liability, or expense (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with any third party claim arising out of the actual or alleged infringement of any third party patent, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right as a result of Consultant’s Work or Client’s use thereof.

 

10. Relation of Parties

 

The performance by Consultant of its duties and obligations under this Agreement shall be that of a contractor (Consultant) and an equally sophisticated party (Client) advised to seek legal review prior to entering into this agreement, and nothing herein shall create or imply an agency relationship between Consultant and Client, nor shall this Agreement be deemed to constitute a joint venture or partnership between the parties.

This Agreement may be modified only by a written instrument executed by authorized representatives of the parties hereto.

 

E.       This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, proposals, negotiations, representations or communications relating to the subject matter.
