the terms set forth herein, and shall advise each Authorized User of the binding nature of these terms.

6. Term and Termination.


(a) This Agreement and the license granted hereunder shall remain in effect for the term set
forth on the Quotation or until earlier terminated as set forth herein (the “Term”).

(b) Either party may terminate this Agreement, effective upon written notice to the defaulting
party, if the defaulting party, materially breaches this Agreement and such breach: (i) is incapable of cure;
or (ii) being capable of cure, remains uncured 15 business days after Licensor provides written notice
thereof.

(c) Licensor may terminate this Agreement, effective immediately, if Licensee files, or has
filed against it, a petition for voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or pursuant to any other insolvency law,
makes or seeks to make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or applies for, or consents to,
the appointment of a trustee, receiver, or custodian for a substantial part of its property.

(d) Upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, the license granted hereunder
shall also terminate, and Licensee shall cease using and destroy all copies of the Software and
Documentation. No expiration or termination shall affect Licensee’s obligation to pay all Licensee Fees and
Support Fees that may have become due before such expiration or termination, or entitle Licensee to any
refund, in each case except as set forth in 12.1(c)(ii).

7. Maintenance and Support.

(a) Maintenance and support services will include provision of Updates and support for
current (non-expired) subscription licenses and perpetual licenses with active (non-expired) maintenance
subscriptions (as set forth in the Quotation). Support services provided by Licensor will include reasonable
telephone, e-mail or web-based support. Licensor reserves the right to condition the provision of
maintenance and support services, including all or any Updates, on Licensee’s registration of the copy of
Software for which support is requested. Licensor has no obligation to provide maintenance and support
services, including Updates: (i) for any but the most current version or release of the Software; (ii) for any
copy of Software for which all previously issued Updates have not been installed; (iii) if Licensee is in
breach under this Agreement; or (iv) for any Software that has been modified other than by Licensor, or
that is being used with any hardware, software, configuration, or operating system not specified in the
Documentation.

(b) Licensor may develop and provide Updates at its sole discretion. Licensee further agrees
that all Updates will be deemed Software, and related documentation will be deemed Documentation, all
subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement. Licensee acknowledges that Licensor may provide
some or all Updates via download from a website designated by Licensor and that Licensee's receipt
thereof will require an internet connection, which connection is Licensee's sole responsibility. Licensor has
no obligation to provide Updates via any other media. Maintenance and support services do not include any
new version or new release of the Software that Licensor may issue as a separate or new product, and
Licensor may determine whether any issuance qualifies as a new version, new release, or Update in its sole
discretion.

8. Collection and Use of Information.

(a) Licensee acknowledges that Licensor may, directly or indirectly through the services of
Third Parties, collect and store information regarding use of the Software and about equipment on which
the Software is installed or through which it otherwise is accessed and used, through:

(i) the provision of maintenance and support services; and

(ii) security measures included in the Software as described in Section 10.

(b) Licensee agrees that the Licensor may use such information for any purpose related to
any use of the Software by Licensee or on Licensee’s equipment, including but not limited to:
(i) improving the performance of the Software or developing Updates; and

(ii) verifying Licensee’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement and enforcing
the Licensor’s rights, including all Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Software.

9. Intellectual Property Rights. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the Software and
Documentation are provided under license, and not sold, to Licensee. Licensee does not acquire any ownership
interest in the Software or Documentation under this Agreement, or any other rights thereto, other than to use the
same in accordance with the license granted and subject to all terms, conditions, and restrictions under this
Agreement. Licensor and its licensors and service providers reserve and shall retain their entire right, title, and
interest in and to the Software and all Intellectual Property Rights arising out of or relating to the Software, except as
expressly granted to the Licensee in this Agreement. Licensee shall safeguard all Software (including all copies
thereof) from infringement, disclosure to third parties, misappropriation, theft, misuse, or unauthorized access.
Licensee shall promptly notify Licensor if Licensee becomes aware of any infringement of the Licensor’s
Intellectual Property Rights in the Software and fully cooperate with Licensor, at Licensor’s sole expense, in any
legal action taken by Licensor to enforce its Intellectual Property Rights.

10. Compliance Measures.

(a) The Software may contain technological copy protection or other security features
designed to prevent unauthorized use of the Software, including features to protect against any use of the
Software that is prohibited under Section 4. Licensee shall not attempt to, remove, disable, circumvent, or
otherwise create or implement any workaround to, any such copy protection or security features.

(b) During the Term, Licensor may, in Licensor’s sole discretion, audit Licensee’s use of the
Software to ensure Licensee’s compliance with this Agreement, provided that (i) any such audit shall be
conducted not less than 15 business days prior notice to Licensee, and (ii) no more than one audit may be
conducted in any 12 month period except for good cause shown. Licensor also may, in its sole discretion,
audit Licensee’s systems within 6 months after the end of the Term to ensure Licensee has ceased use of
the Software and removed all copies of the Software from such systems as required hereunder. The
Licensee shall fully cooperate with Licensor’s personnel conducting such audits and provide all access
requested by the Licensor to records, systems, equipment, information, and personnel, including machine
IDs, serial numbers, and related information. Licensor shall only examine information directly related to
the Licensee’s use of the Software. Licensor may conduct audits only during Licensee’s normal business
hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the Licensee’s business operations.

(c) If any of the measures taken or implemented under this Section 10 determines that the
Licensee’s use of the Software exceeds or exceeded the use permitted by this Agreement then:

(i) Licensee shall, within 15 business days following the date of such determination
by Licensee or Licensor’s written notification thereof, pay to Licensor the retroactive Fees for
such excess use and, unless Licensor terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(c)(ii),
obtain and pay for a valid license to bring Licensee’s use into compliance with this Agreement. In
determining the Licensee Fee payable pursuant to the foregoing, (x) unless Licensee can
demonstrate otherwise by documentary evidence, all excess use of the Software shall be deemed
to have commenced on the commencement date of this Agreement or, if later, the completion date
of any audit previously conducted by Licensor hereunder, and continued uninterrupted thereafter,
and (y) the rates for such licenses shall be determined without regard to any discount to which
Licensee may have been entitled had such use been properly licensed prior to its commencement
(or deemed commencement).

(ii) If the use exceeds or exceeded the use permitted by this Agreement, Licensor
shall also have the right to terminate this Agreement and the license granted hereunder, effective
immediately upon written notice to Licensee.
Licensor’s remedies set forth in this Section 10(c) are cumulative and are in addition to,
and not in lieu of, all other remedies the Licensor may have at law or in equity, whether under this
Agreement or otherwise.

11. Payment. The payment of all Fees set forth in the Quotation are non-refundable, except as may be
expressly set forth herein. Any renewal of the license or maintenance and support services hereunder shall not be
effective until the fees for such renewal have been paid in full. Any payment overdue will be subject to interest
charges which shall accrue at a rate of 1.5% per month (18% annually), or the maximum rate permitted by law,
whichever is less, from the due date until the total invoice amount has been paid in full. Further, if Licensee fails to
timely pay the fee, Licensor may terminate ongoing access to the products and/or services listed in the
accompanying Quotation. Licensee shall be liable to Licensor for any costs incurred in Licensor’s pursuit of
payment for unpaid fees, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs (which shall include the costs of appeal
or of executing under any judgment).

12. Limited Warranties, Exclusive Remedy, and Disclaimer.

(a) Solely with respect to Software for which Licensor receives a License Fee, Licensor
warrants that, for a period of 90 days following the “start date” date set forth on the Quotation, the Software
will substantially contain the functionality described in the Documentation, and when properly installed on
a computer meeting the specifications set forth in, and operated in accordance with, the Documentation,
will substantially perform in accordance therewith. The foregoing warranty does not apply, and Licensor
strictly disclaims all warranties, with respect to any Third Party materials.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY, AND LICENSOR STRICTLY


DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WITH RESPECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY MATERIALS.

(b) The warranty set forth in Section 12(a) will not apply and will become null and void if
Licensee materially breaches any provision of this Agreement, or if Licensee, any Authorized User, or any
other Person provided access to the Software by Licensee or any Authorized User, whether or not in
violation of this Agreement:

(i) installs or uses the Software on or in connection with any hardware or software
not specified in the Documentation;

(ii) modifies or damages the Software, or the media on which it is provided,


including abnormal physical or electrical stress; or

(iii) misuses the Software, including any use of the Software other than as specified
in the Documentation.

(c) If, during the period specified in Section 12(a), any Software covered by the warranty set
forth in such Section fails to perform substantially in accordance with the Documentation, and such failure
is not excluded from warranty pursuant to Section 12(b), Licensor will, subject to Licensee’s promptly
notifying Licensor in writing of such failure, at its sole option, either:

(i) repair or replace the Software, provided that Licensee provides Licensor with all
information Licensor requests to resolve the reported failure, including sufficient information to
enable the Licensor to recreate such failure; or

(ii) refund the Fees paid for such Software, subject to Licensee’s ceasing all use of
and, if requested by Licensor, returning to Licensor all copies of the Software.

If Licensor repairs or replaces the Software, the warranty will continue to run from the
initial “start date” specified on the Quotation, and not from Licensee’s receipt of the repair or replacement.
The remedies set forth in this Section 12(c) are Licensee’s sole remedies and Licensor’s sole liability under
this Agreement.

(d) EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 12(a), THE
SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED TO LICENSEE “AS IS” AND WITH ALL
FAULTS AND DEFECTS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR, ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF
OF ITS AFFILIATES AND ITS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE LICENSORS AND SERVICE
PROVIDERS, EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED, IMPLIED,
STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION,
INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND WARRANTIES THAT MAY
ARISE OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE, OR TRADE
PRACTICE. WITHOUT LIMITATION TO THE FOREGOING, THE LICENSOR PROVIDES NO
WARRANTY OR UNDERTAKING, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND THAT
THE LICENSED SOFTWARE WILL MEET THE LICENSEE’S REQUIREMENTS, ACHIEVE ANY
INTENDED RESULTS, BE COMPATIBLE, OR WORK WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE,
APPLICATIONS, SYSTEMS, OR SERVICES, OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION, MEET ANY
PERFORMANCE OR RELIABILITY STANDARDS OR BE ERROR FREE, OR THAT ANY ERRORS
OR DEFECTS CAN OR WILL BE CORRECTED.

(i)

13. Limitation of Liability. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE


LAW:

(a) IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF ITS OR THEIR


RESPECTIVE LICENSORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS, BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY THIRD
PARTY FOR ANY USE, INTERRUPTION, DELAY, OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE;
LOST REVENUES OR PROFITS; DELAYS, INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF SERVICES, BUSINESS,
OR GOODWILL; LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA; LOSS RESULTING FROM SYSTEM OR
SYSTEM SERVICE FAILURE, MALFUNCTION, OR SHUTDOWN; FAILURE TO ACCURATELY
TRANSFER, READ, OR TRANSMIT INFORMATION; FAILURE TO UPDATE OR PROVIDE
CORRECT INFORMATION; SYSTEM INCOMPATIBILITY OR PROVISION OF INCORRECT
COMPATIBILITY INFORMATION; OR BREACHES IN SYSTEM SECURITY; OR FOR ANY
CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE
DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT,
BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS
OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT THE
LICENSOR WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(b) IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’, INCLUDING ANY OF


ITS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE LICENSORS’ AND SERVICE PROVIDERS’, COLLECTIVE
AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS
SUBJECT MATTER, UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, INCLUDING BREACH OF
CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, AND OTHERWISE,
EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID TO THE LICENSOR PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT
FOR UP TO TWELVE (12) MONTHS OF THE LICENSEE FEES PAID TO LICENSOR FOR THE
SOFTWARE OR $5,000, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

(c) THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 13(a) AND SECTION 13(b) SHALL
APPLY EVEN IF THE LICENSEE’S REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FAIL OF THEIR
ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

(d) As an accommodation to Licensee, Licensor may provide Licensee with a pre-production


release of the Software (often labeled a “beta release”). IN ADDITION TO ALL OTHER WAIVERS,
LIMITATIONS, AND DISCLAIMERS IN THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH RELEASES ARE PROVIDED
ON AN “AS IS” BASIS. LICENSEE DOES NOT WARRANT PRE-PRODUCTION RELEASES IN
ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER. Licensee acknowledges and agree that Licensor shall have no
obligation to maintain, correct, update, change, modify, or otherwise support the beta release. Licensor
makes no guarantee or commitment as to the success of the beta software. Use of the beta release is at the
entire risk of Licensee.

(e) The Software may contain samples that are provided as an accommodation to Licensee
(“Sample Project Files”). These Sample Project files are intended to be used for example purposes only.
The Sample Project Files may be contained in the Software, Documentation, or downloaded from the
Licensor website. Licensor and its Third Party licensors make no representations or warranties regarding
Licensee’s use of the Sample Project files and related Documentation. In addition to all other waivers,
limitations, and disclaimers set forth in this Agreement, such Sample Project Files are provided “as-is,” and
Licensor disclaims all warranties with regard to this information, including all implied warranties and
conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.

14. Export Regulation. The Software is subject to United States export control laws, including the
Export Control Reform Act and its associated regulations. Licensee shall not, directly or indirectly, export, re-
export, or release the Software to, or make the Software accessible from, any jurisdiction or country to which export,
re-export, or release is prohibited by law, rule, or regulation. Licensee shall comply with all applicable United States
or international laws, regulations, and rules, and complete all required undertakings (including obtaining any
necessary export license or other governmental approval), prior to exporting, re-exporting, releasing, or otherwise
making the Software available outside the United States.

15. United States Government Rights. Each of the Documentation and the Software is a “commercial
product” as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and
“commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. § 12.212. Accordingly, if
Licensee is an agency of the United States Government or any contractor therefor, Licensee only receives those
rights with respect to the Software and Documentation as are granted to all other end users under license, in
accordance with (a) 48 C.F.R. § 227.7201 through 48 C.F.R. § 227.7204, with respect to the United States
Department of Defense and their contractors, or (b) 48 C.F.R. § 12.212, with respect to all other United States
Government licensees and their contractors.

16. Miscellaneous.

(a) All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the state of Delaware without giving effect to any choice
or conflict of law provision or rule. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be instituted in the federal courts of the United
States or the courts of the state of Delaware, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of such courts in any such legal suit, action, or proceeding. Service of process, summons,
notice, or other document by mail to such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of
process for any suit, action, or other proceeding brought in any such court.

(b) In no event shall either party be liable to the other party, or be deemed to have breached
this Agreement, for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement, (except for any
obligations to make payments), if and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstances
beyond such party’s reasonable control, including but not limited to: (i) acts of God; (ii) flood, fire,
earthquake, or explosion; (iii) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or
acts, riot or other civil unrest; (iv) government order, law, or actions; (v) embargoes or blockades in effect
on or after the date of this Agreement; (vi) national or regional emergency; (vii) strikes, labor stoppages or
slowdowns, or other industrial disturbances; and (viii) shortage of adequate power or transportation
facilities

(c) All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (i) when delivered by hand (with
written confirmation of receipt); (ii) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized
overnight courier (receipt requested); (iii) on the date sent by facsimile or email (with confirmation of
transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next business day if sent
after normal business hours of the recipient; or (iv) on the seventh day after the date mailed, by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent to the
respective parties at the addresses set forth on the Quotation (or to such other address as may be designated
by a party from time to time in accordance with this Section 16(c)).

(d) This Agreement, together with the Quotation, all annexes, schedules, and exhibits
attached hereto, and all other documents that are incorporated by reference herein, constitutes the sole and
entire agreement between Licensee and Licensor with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties,
both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. The terms of this License shall supersede any
terms set forth in Licensee’s purchase order, request for proposal, or any other sales document
provided by Licensee to Licensor.

(e) Licensee shall not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights, or delegate or otherwise
transfer any of its obligations or performance, under this Agreement, in each case whether voluntarily,
involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, without Licensor’s prior written consent, which consent
Licensor may not unreasonably withhold. For purposes of the preceding sentence, and without limiting its
generality, any merger, consolidation, or reorganization involving Licensee (regardless of whether Licensee
is a surviving or disappearing entity) will be deemed to be a transfer of rights, obligations, or performance
under this Agreement for which Licensor’s prior written consent is required. No delegation or other transfer
will relieve Licensee of any of its obligations or performance under this Agreement. Any purported
assignment, delegation, or transfer in violation of this Section 16(e) is void. Licensor may freely assign or
otherwise transfer all or any of its rights, or delegate or otherwise transfer all or any of its obligations or
performance, under this Agreement without Licensee’s consent. This Agreement is binding upon and inures
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

(f) This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and permitted assigns and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any other
Person any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this
Agreement.

(g) This Agreement may only be amended, modified, or supplemented by an agreement in


writing signed by each party hereto. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be
effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set
forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege
arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

(h) If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of
this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

(i) The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and do not affect the interpretation
of this Agreement.

17. Confidentiality.

From time to time during the term of this Agreement, Licensor (as the “Disclosing Party”) may disclose or make
available to the Licensee (as the “Receiving Party”) information about its business affairs, products, services, the
