7. HHS. The Business Associate agrees to make its internal practices, books and records relating to the Use and Disclosure of PHI received from or created or received by the Business Associate on behalf of the Company available to the Company and the Secretary of HHS for purposes of determining the Company's compliance with the Regulations. Notwithstanding this Section 7, no attorney-client privilege or other privilege shall be deemed waived by the Company or the Business Associate. 8. Termination. Company and Business Associate shall each have the right to immediately terminate this agreement upon the violation by the other of a material term of this Agreement or of the Regulations, including violations relating specifically to the permitted and required Uses and Disclosures of PHI by the Company or Business Associate; provided, however, that the breaching party shall be provided the opportunity to cure the breach to the satisfaction of the other within a reasonable period of time. If the beaching -party does not cure the default, the non -breaching party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement or if it is not feasible to terminate this Agreement, report the problem to the Secretary of HHS. Upon termination of this Agreement, the Business Associate and the Company agree to determine whether the return or destruction of PHI received from, or created or received by the Business Associate under this Agreement is feasible. If such return or destruction is mutually determined to be feasible, the Business Associate shall promptly return or destroy all such PHI received from or created or received by the Business Associate under this Agreement. If such return or destruction is mutually determined to not be feasible, the protections of this Agreement shall continue to apply to such PHI after termination (including the Business Associate's obligations in Section 5), and further Uses and Disclosures of such PHI shall be restricted to only those purposes that make the return or destruction of the information infeasible. If mutual agreement is not made as to the feasibility of any return or destruction of PHI, the parties agree to use mediation to resolve this issue. 9. Term of A rueeement. The term of this Agreement shall be such period of time as the Business Associate is performing the Services.
