14.1    Ibotta will defend and indemnify Walmart, its affiliates and their past, present and future directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all Losses arising or resulting from: (i) Ibotta’s breach of or failure to comply with any obligation or provision of this Agreement; (ii) Ibotta’s violation of or failure to comply with applicable laws; (iii) Ibotta’s breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement; or (iv) any claim or allegation that Ibotta’s Service infringes or misappropriates any third party’s intellectual property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ibotta shall have no indemnification obligations hereunder in connection with any Losses arising or resulting solely from Walmart’s actions or omissions.
14.2    Walmart will defend and indemnify Ibotta, its affiliates and their past, present and future directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all Losses arising or resulting from: (i) Walmart’s breach of or failure to comply with any obligation or provision of this Agreement; and (ii) Walmart’s breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Walmart shall have no indemnification obligations hereunder in connection with any Losses arising or resulting from Ibotta’s actions or omissions.
14.3    Each Party’s provision of the indemnities set forth in Section 14.1 and Section 14.2, respectively, is subject to the Indemnified Party providing the Indemnifying Party with (i) prompt written notice of the applicable Indemnified Claim; (ii) control over the defense and settlement of such Indemnified Claim; and (iii) proper and full information and assistance to settle and/or defend any such Indemnified Claim. Upon receipt of notice, from whatever source, of an Indemnified Claim against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party must take necessary and appropriate action to protect the Indemnified Party and its interests with regard to the Indemnified Claim.

If the Indemnifying Party provides counsel for the defense of any Indemnified Claim and the Indemnified Party, in its sole discretion, determines that counsel provided by the Indemnifying Party to defend the Indemnified Party is unacceptable or that a conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Party and counsel, then the Indemnified Party may request that the Indemnifying Party replace the counsel. If the



Indemnifying Party fails to timely replace counsel, the Indemnifying Party agrees its counsel shall work in good faith with the Indemnified Party’s counsel, retained at the Indemnified Party’s sole expense, until the Indemnified Claim is resolved. Each Party has the right at all times to accept or reject any offer to settle any Indemnified Claim. The Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any Indemnified Claim shall not, except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment against an Indemnified Party and shall not, except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a complete, unconditional and irrevocable release from all liability and blame with respect to the Indemnified Claim.
14.6    Each Indemnifying Party waives any right, at law or in equity, to indemnity, contribution or subrogation from the Indemnified Party with respect to any Indemnified Claim.
14.7    The provisions of this Section 14 will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
