clause is defined to include VENDOR’S agents and employees), VENDOR must indemnify, save, and
hold harmless STATE, its agents, and employees, from any claims or causes of action, including

B. Actions that give rise to strict liability, or
C. Breach of contract or breach of warranty
The indemnification obligations of this section do not apply in the event the claim or cause of action
is the result of STATE’S sole negligence. This clause will not be construed to bar any legal remedies
VENDOR may have for STATE’S failure to fulfill its obligation under this Agreement.
9. State Audit. Under Minnesota Statutes, 16C.05, subdivision 5, the books, records, documents, and
accounting procedures and practices of VENDOR and its employees, agents, subcontractors, or
representatives, relevant to this Agreement must be made available and subject to examination by
STATE, including the contracting Agency/Division, Legislative Auditor, and State Auditor, for a

nonpublic by statute, federal law, or temporary classification. Minn. Stat. § 13.02, subd. 8a.

45 C.F.R. § 160.103, on behalf of STATE for a function or activity regulated by 45 C.F.R. § 160 or
164. Accordingly, VENDOR is not a "business associate" of STATE, as defined in HIPAA, 45 C.F.R.
§ 160.103 as a result of, or in connection with, this Agreement. Therefore, VENDOR is not
required to comply with the privacy provisions of HIPAA as a result of, or for purposes of,
performing under this Agreement. If VENDOR has responsibilities to comply with the Data
Practices Act or HIPAA for reasons other than this Agreement, VENDOR will be responsible for
its own compliance.
C. Notwithstanding paragraphs A and B, in its capacity as VENDOR under this Agreement, VENDOR
must comply with the provisions of the Data Practices Act as if it were a governmental entity as
defined by the Data Practices Act, to the extent that VENDOR will be performing functions of a
government entity under Minn. Stat. § 13.05, subd. 11. Any data created, collected, received,
