Kayako "Software as a Service" Terms and Conditions

These ‘Software as a Service’ Terms and Conditions (“SaaS Terms”) apply to and are incorporated by reference into the ordering document (the “Quote”) made by and between the Service Provider (as identified on the Quote) and the Customer (as identified on the Quote) and set forth the terms and conditions under which Service Provider will provide the Customer with access to certain applications as set forth on the Quote (“Application(s)”) and user documentation that Service Provider makes generally available in hard copy or electronic form to its general customer base in conjunction with the licensing of such Applications ("Documentation"). The Applications and the Documentation will hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Software.”
Service Provider and Customer hereby agree as follows:

1. LICENSE GRANT AND RIGHT OF USE

1.1. License Grant. Subject to all limitations and restrictions contained herein and the Quote, Service Provider grants Customer a term subscription, software as a service (‘SaaS’), nonexclusive, and nontransferable right to access and operate the object code form of Applications (and use its Documentation) as hosted by Service Provider as described in the Quote (“Use”) and solely to perform those functions described in the Documentation. For clarity, an “Application” means Service Provider’s proprietary software that is specifically licensed to Customer pursuant to a Quote.

1.2. Use. Customer will have a limited right and license to Use the Application solely for its internal business purposes, to perform the functions described in the Documentation. Customer shall not allow any website that is not fully owned by Customer to frame, syndicate, distribute, replicate, or copy any portion of Customer’s web site that provides direct or indirect access to the Application. Customer shall not allow any website, that is not fully owned by Customer, to frame, syndicate, distribute, replicate, or copy any portion of Customer’s web site that provides direct or indirect access to the Software. Unless otherwise expressly permitted in the Quote and subject to Section 1.5, Customer shall not permit any subsidiaries, affiliated companies, or third parties to access the Software.

1.3. License Type. Unless otherwise specifically stated in the Quote, the type of license granted is a per Staff User Account. Customer shall ensure that the number of the active Staff User Accounts is equal to or less than the number of Staff User Accounts for which the Customer has subscribed. Customer is responsible for ensuring that access to a Staff User Account is not shared. Only one individual may authenticate to one Staff User Account. Hardware or software Customer uses to pool connections, reroute information, or reduce the number of users that directly access or use the Software (sometimes referred to as "multiplexing" or "pooling"), does not reduce the number of licenses or active Staff User Accounts Customer needs. A “Staff User Account” subscription license means that the Application licensed pursuant to the Quote may be Used by a limited number of individual users, each identified by a unique user id the maximum number of which is specified in the Quote. Customer may designate different Staff User Accounts at any time without notice to Service Provider so long as the permitted number of Staff User Account is not exceeded.

1.4. Additional Restrictions. In no event will Customer disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer the Application or Confidential Information (as defined herein) or permit others to do so. Disassembling, decompiling, and reverse engineering include, without limitation: (i) converting the Application from a machine-readable form into a human-readable form; (ii) disassembling or decompiling the Application by using any means or methods to translate machine-dependent or machine-independent object code into the original human-readable source code or any approximation thereof; (iii) examining the machine-readable object code that controls the Application’s operation and creating the original source code or any approximation thereof by, for example, studying the Application’s behavior in response to a variety of inputs; or (iv) performing any other activity related to the Application that could be construed to be reverse engineering, disassembling, or decompiling. To the extent any such activity may be permitted pursuant to written agreement, the results thereof will be deemed Confidential Information subject to the requirements of these SaaS Terms. Customer may use Service Provider’s Confidential Information solely in connection with the Application and pursuant to the terms of these SaaS Terms.

1.5. Authorized Users. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Quote, “Authorized Users” will only consist of: (i) employees of Customer, and (ii) subject to Section 5 (Confidentiality), third party contractors of Customer who do not compete with Service Provider (“Permitted Contractors”). Permitted Contractors may Use the Software only at Customer’s place of business or in the presence of Customer personnel. Customer is fully liable for the acts and omissions of Permitted Contractors under these SaaS Terms and applicable Quote.

1.6. Customer License Grant. Customer grants to Service Provider a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access, use, reproduce, modify, perform, display and distribute Customer data as is reasonable or necessary for Service Provider to perform or provide the Application.

1.7. Third Party Software. The Services may contain third party software that requires notices and/or additional terms and conditions. Such required third party software notices and/or additional terms and conditions may be requested from Service Provider and are made a part of and incorporated by reference into these SaaS Terms. By accepting these SaaS Terms, Customer is also accepting the additional terms and conditions, if any, set forth therein.

2. PAYMENT

2.1. Fees. Customer shall pay Service Provider the fees indicated on the Quote. Unless otherwise provided in a Quote, all fees are to be paid to Service Provider within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice. Any late payment will be subject to any costs of collection (including reasonable legal fees) and will bear interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (prorated for partial periods) or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. If Customer has set up a direct debit, Service Provider will not debit Customer’s designated account before seven (7) days have elapsed from the date of the invoice. If Customer is delinquent on a payment of fees for fifteen (15) days or more, Service Provider may suspend access to the Application. Complaints concerning invoices must be made in writing within thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice. Invoices will be sent by electronic delivery unless requested otherwise by Customer, additional fees will apply.

2.2. Taxes. The license, service fees, and other amounts required to be paid hereunder do not include any amount for taxes or levy (including interest and penalties). Customer shall reimburse Service Provider and hold Service Provider harmless for all sales, use, VAT, excise, property or other taxes or levies which Service Provider is required to collect or remit to applicable tax authorities. This provision does not apply to Service Provider’s income or franchise taxes, or any taxes for which Customer is exempt, provided Customer has furnished Service Provider with a valid tax exemption certificate.

If such efforts are unsuccessful in eliminating the Issue, Customer shall then promptly notify Service Provider of the Issue. Customer shall confirm that the following conditions are true before contacting Service Provider for support:

a) Reproduction. If possible, the situation giving rise to the Issue is reproducible in a single supported Application;

b) Support Representative. The Customer contact has the technical knowledge regarding the Application and any other software or hardware systems involved, and in the facts and circumstances surrounding the Issue;

c) Access. The entire system, including all software and hardware, is available to the Customer contact without limit during any communication with Service Provider support personnel; and

d) Availability. If requested and required, Customer must make available to Service Provider a technical representative during support hours of coverage for all Issues.

Service Level Addendum for SaaS

This Service Level Addendum for SaaS (this “Service Level Addendum”) is entered into by and between the parties listed, and as of the Effective Date stated, on the quote, referencing agreement or any other agreement that references this Service Level Addendum) (the “Referencing Agreement”). For clarity, “Customer” is the specific entity listed on the Referencing Agreement and does not include parents, subsidiaries, or any other affiliated entities (unless specifically listed in the Referencing Agreement). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this document have the meanings assigned to them elsewhere in the Referencing Agreement.

If the Software was purchased through a reseller, this Service Level Addendum applies to the agreement entered into between the reseller and the end user for the Software. For purposes of this Service Level Addendum, Customer shall refer to the end user.

1. Definitions.

The following definitions apply to this Service Level Addendum.

“Downtime” means the time in which any service is not capable of being accessed or used by the Customer, as monitored by Service Provider.
“Monthly Uptime Percentage” means the total number of minutes in a calendar month minus the number of minutes of Downtime suffered in a calendar month, divided by the total number of minutes in a calendar month.
“Exclusion from Downtime” The following are not counted as Downtime for the purpose of calculating Monthly Uptime Percentage:

  • Service unavailability caused by scheduled maintenance of the platform used to provide the applicable service (Service Provider will endeavor to provide seven (7) days’ advance notice of service-affecting scheduled maintenance); or
  • Service unavailability caused by events outside of the direct control of Service Provider or its subcontractor(s), including any force majeure event, the failure or unavailability of Customer systems, the Internet, and the failure of any other technology or equipment used to connect to or access the service.
2. Service Provider SLA.

During the term of the applicable SaaS Subscription Agreement between Customer and Service Provider for the services listed on the Referencing Document, Service Provider will use reasonable efforts to achieve a Monthly Uptime Percentage of at least 99.5% for any calendar month (the “Service Provider SLA”). If Service Provider does not meet the Service Provider SLA, and so long as Customer’s account with Service Provider is current, Customer will be eligible to receive the credits described below. These credits are Customer’s exclusive remedy (and Service Provider’s sole liability) with respect to Service Provider’s inability to meet the Service Provider SLA requirements. Service Provider explicitly disclaims all other remedies, whether in law or equity.

3. Service Credits.

Credits are issued as a financial reimbursement if Service Provider does not meet the Service Provider SLA for a particular billing period of the ordered term. Upon approval of a claim Service Provider will provide the applicable remedy set forth below:

Billing Period Uptime Percentage Service Credit
<99.5% but >= 99.2% 5% of the fees due for the billing period
<99.2% but >= 99.0% 10% of the fees due for the billing period
<99.0% but >= 98.7% 15% of the fees due for the billing period
<98.7% 20% of the fees due for the billing period
4. Maximum Credit.

The maximum credit available to Customer if Service Provider is unable to meet the Service Provider SLA is up to twenty percent (20%) of the monthly fees for the month of the occurrence. Any credit will be applied to fees due from Customer for the service and will not be paid to Customer as a refund. All claims for credit are subject to review and verification by Service Provider, and all credits will be based on Service Provider’s measurement of its performance of the service and will be final.

5. Claim Procedure.

To receive a service credit for Service Provider’s failure to meet the Service Provider SLA in a particular calendar month, Customer must submit a claim via the Customer support portal within thirty (30) days of the end of the month during which the Service Provider did not meet the Service Provider SLA, and include the following information:

  • Customer name and account number;
  • the name of the service to which the claim relates;
  • the name, email address, and telephone number of the Customer’s designated contact; and
  • information supporting each claim of Downtime, including date, time, and a description of the incident and affected service, all of which must fall within the calendar month for which the claim is being submitted.

This License Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which Customer may (i) use Licensor’s proprietary software (the Licensed Software/Subscribed Software) that is specifically licensed to Customer pursuant to the Quote; and (ii) use the user documentation that Licensor makes generally available in hard copy or electronic form to its general customer base in conjunction with the licensing of such Applications (the “Documentation”). For purposes of this License Agreement, the term “Software” means the Applications listed in an applicable Quote, the Documentation, and any Updates (as defined in the Maintenance and Support Terms and Conditions incorporated by reference into the Quote).
Customer acknowledges and agrees that it is not relying on any agreement, representation, statement, or warranty (whether or not in writing) made or given prior to the Term Start Date, except as expressly provided herein with respect to the Software provided hereunder or any Maintenance and Support Services under the applicable Quote. Licensor and Customer hereby agree as follows:

1. LICENSE GRANT AND RIGHT OF USE

As specifically stated in the Subscription Quote, each such license shall be a fixed term, worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty free (upon full payment of subscription fees), and nontransferable license to use the source code version of the Software, solely to perform those functions defined in the Documentation, and subject to all limitations and restrictions contained herein (“Use”). Web access for permitted third parties’ Use shall be defined in the applicable Quote if such access is to be permitted under this License Agreement. The Software may only be Used on the hardware and software components, including client machines, servers, and internetworking devices within Customer’s internal computer network at Customer’s location. The Subscription license shall expire upon expiration of the Term described on the Quote unless and until renewed as per the terms and conditions of renewal set forth in the Quote.

License Type. The license model for the Software is set forth in the Quote (or order form) and described in the Licensing Addendum attached hereto.

Authorized Users. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Quote, Authorized Users are defined as: employees of Customer;

a non-human operated device, or a process acccessing the Software on behalf of the Customer;

third party individuals or non-human operated devices, or processes that are accessing the Software: (i) on behalf of Customer; or (ii) are authorized by Customer and who do not compete with Licensor (“Third-Party Users”). Third-Party Users may Use the Software only subject to Section 6, “Confidentiality.”

Authorized Use. Authorized Users may access and use the Software in the operating software environment specified in the applicable Quote (or order form); such environment is further described in the Licensing Addendum. Authorized Users shall not (i) access the Software to process, or permit to be processed, the data of any other party; or (ii) access the Software for service bureau or commercial time-sharing use. Unless otherwise expressly permitted in the Quote and subject to Section 4 above, Customer shall not permit any subsidiaries, affiliated entities, or third parties to access the Software.

Additional Restrictions. In no event shall Customer disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer the Software or Confidential Information (as defined in Section 6) or permit others to do so. Disassembling, decompiling and reverse engineering include, without limitation: (i) converting the Software from a machine-readable form into a human-readable form; (ii) disassembling or decompiling the Software by using any means or methods to translate machine-dependent or machine-independent object code into the original human-readable source code or any approximation thereof; (iii) examining the machine-readable object code that controls the Software’s operation and creating the original source code or any approximation thereof by, for example, studying the Software’s behavior in response to a variety of inputs; or (iv) performing any other activity related to the Software that could be construed to be reverse engineering, disassembling, or decompiling. To the extent any such activity may be permitted pursuant to written agreement, the results thereof shall be deemed Confidential Information subject to the requirements of this License Agreement.

Payment Due Date. All invoices shall be payable by Customer in United States dollars and payment shall be due thirty (30) days after the invoice date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, any and all payments required to be made hereunder shall be timely made, and no payments to Licensor shall be withheld, delayed, reduced or refunded if Licensor has fully performed its material obligations and its inability to meet any schedule or delivery requirements is caused by Customer’s failure to provide certain of its facilities, computer resources, software programs, project management activities, personnel, and business information as are required to perform any of Licensor’s obligations hereunder.

Purchase Orders. Customer may provide Licensor with a valid purchase order, upon execution of a Quote. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, purchase orders are to be used solely for Customer’s accounting purposes and any terms and conditions contained therein shall be deemed null and void with respect to the parties’ relationship and this License Agreement. Any such purchase order provided to Licensor shall in no way relieve Customer of any obligation entered into pursuant to this License Agreement including, but not limited to, its obligation to pay Licensor in a timely fashion. Late Payment. Any late payment shall be subject to any costs of collection (including reasonable legal fees) and shall bear interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (prorated for partial periods) or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less.

Taxes. All amounts required to be paid hereunder do not include any amount for taxes or levy (including interest and penalties). Customer shall reimburse Licensor and hold Licensor harmless for all sales, use, VAT, excise, property, or other taxes or levies which Licensor is required to collect or remit to applicable tax authorities.

3. DELIVERY/VERIFICATION

Delivery. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Quote, Licensor shall deliver to Customer one master copy of the licensed Software (each a “Master Copy”) solely for the purpose of allowing Customer to make one copy of the Master Copy for Use by each Authorized User. Customer’s right to reproduce the Master Copy shall be limited to the Authorized Reproduction Location, defined as the address for Customer on the applicable Quote. Customer shall assume all responsibility for the quality of the copies made by Customer. For purposes of this License Agreement, delivery shall be deemed complete when Licensor physically delivers, or causes a third party to deliver, a Master Copy to Customer, or makes the Master Copy available to Customer for downloading from Licensor’s File Transfer Protocol (“FTP”) site and has provided Customer with the appropriate authorization to access the FTP site. Licensor will provide Customer with a license key that is required to activate and use the Software. The license key will be provided via email or other like method at Licensor’s discretion. The license key is used to ensure that the Software operates in accordance with the license granted to the Customer in this License Agreement. As such, the Software may contain time-out devices, counter devices, or other similar devices intended to prevent the Software from being used beyond the bounds of the license. Customer consents to such activity and agrees not to disable, attempt to disable, or tamper with the license key system or any other such license enforcement technology.

Marking. Customer shall include all copyright notices, proprietary legends, any trademark and service mark attributions, any patent markings, and other indicia of ownership and confidential markings on all copies of the Software and any other Licensor materials provided to Customer, in the content and format contained on the Master Copy and such Licensor materials. Customer shall pay all duplication and distribution costs incurred by Customer in making copies of the Software, and shall also pay all custom duties and fees if applicable. Subject only to the license granted herein, all copies of the Software and any other Licensor materials provided to Customer are the property of Licensor or its third party licensors from whom Licensor has obtained marketing rights (the “Third Party Licensors”).

Neither party grants to the other any title, interest or other right in any Marks except as provided in this Section.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY

Definition. All information which is defined as Confidential Information hereunder in tangible form shall be marked as “Confidential” or the like or, if intangible (e.g. visually or orally disclosed), shall be designated as being confidential at the time of disclosure and shall be confirmed as such in writing within thirty (30) days of the initial disclosure. “Confidential Information” may include all technical, product, business, financial, and other information regarding the business and software programs of either party, its customers, employees, investors, contractors, vendors and suppliers, including, but not limited to, programming techniques and methods, research and development, computer programs, documentation, marketing plans, customer identity, and business methods. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Confidential Information shall include all information and materials disclosed orally or in any other form, regarding Licensor’s software products or software product development, including, but not limited to, the configuration techniques, data classification techniques, user interface, applications programming interfaces, data modeling and management techniques, data structures, and other information of or relating to Licensor’s software products or derived from testing or other use thereof. Confidential Information includes all such Confidential Information that may have been disclosed by either party to the other party, before or after the first Term Start Date. Confidential Information includes information generally not publicly known, whether tangible or intangible and in whatever form or medium provided, as well as any information generated by a party that contains, reflects, or is derived from such information. For clarity, the term ‘Confidential Information’ does not include any personally identifiable information. Obligations with respect to such information (if any) will be set forth in a separate written agreement between the parties. For the purpose of this entire Section 6, ‘Licensor’ shall include all its Affiliates. “Affiliate” under this License Agreement shall mean any entity, directly or indirectly, controlled by or under common control with or controlling a party to this License Agreement.

Confidentiality of Software. The following is deemed Licensor Confidential Information with or without marking or written confirmation: (i) the Software and other related materials furnished by Licensor; (ii) the oral and visual information relating to the Software and provided in Licensor’s training classes; and (iii) Licensor’s representation methods of modeled data.

Exceptions. Without granting any right or license, the obligations of the parties hereunder shall not apply to any material or information that: (i) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission by the receiving party; (ii) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; (iii) is rightfully obtained from a third party without any obligation of confidentiality to the receiving party; or (iv) is already known by the receiving party without any obligation of confidentiality prior to obtaining the Confidential Information from the disclosing party. In addition, neither party shall be liable for disclosure of Confidential Information if made in response to a valid order of a court or authorized agency of government, provided that notice is promptly given to the party whose Confidential Information is to be disclosed so that such party may seek a protective order and engage in other efforts to minimize the required disclosure. The parties shall cooperate fully in seeking such protective order and in engaging in such other efforts.

Ownership of Confidential Information. Nothing in this License Agreement shall be construed to convey any title or ownership rights to the Software or other Licensor Confidential Information or to any patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret embodied therein, or to grant any other right, title, or ownership interest in Licensor Confidential Information to the Customer. Nothing in this License Agreement shall be construed to convey any title or ownership rights to Customer’s Confidential Information or to any patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret embodied therein, or to grant any other right, title, or ownership interest in the Customer Confidential Information to Licensor. Neither party shall, in whole or in part, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, or disclose the Confidential Information to any third party and shall not copy, reproduce, or distribute the Confidential Information except as expressly permitted in this License Agreement. Each party shall take every reasonable precaution, but no less than those precautions used to protect its own Confidential Information, to prevent the theft, disclosure, and the unauthorized copying, reproduction, or distribution of the Confidential Information.

Non-Disclosure. Each party agrees at all times to use all reasonable efforts, but in any case no less than the efforts that each party uses in the protection of its own Confidential Information of like value, to protect Confidential Information belonging to the other party. Each party agrees to restrict access to the other party’s Confidential Information only to those employees, who (i) require access in the course of their assigned duties and responsibilities, and (ii) have agreed in writing to be bound by provisions no less restrictive than those set forth in this Section 6. Notwithstanding anything contained hereunder and subject to the Confidentiality obligations set forth under this Section 6, all references to Licensor or its employees under this Section 6 shall be deemed to include such employees of Affiliates and Subcontractors and Licensor will ensure that its Subcontractors abide by the applicable terms of the License Agreement.

Injunctive Relief. Each party acknowledges that any unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information would cause the other party imminent irreparable injury and that such party shall be entitled to, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief in the event the other party does not fulfill its obligations under this Section 6.

Suggestions/Improvements to Software. Notwithstanding this Section 6, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, all suggestions, solutions, improvements, corrections, and other contributions provided by Customer regarding the Software or other Licensor materials provided to Customer shall be owned by Licensor, and Customer hereby agrees to assign any such rights to Licensor. Nothing in this License Agreement or the applicable Quote shall preclude Licensor from using in any manner or for any purpose it deems necessary, the know-how, techniques, or procedures acquired or used by Licensor in the performance of any services hereunder.

Return of Confidential Information. Upon the written request of disclosing party, receiving party shall return or destroy (and certify such destruction in a signed writing) all Confidential Information of disclosing party, including all copies thereof and materials incorporating such Confidential Information, whether in physical or electronic form. Each party may retain a copy of the other party’s Confidential Information solely for archival purposes. To the extent that it is impracticable to return or destroy any Confidential Information, and with respect to any copies retained for archival purposes, receiving party shall continue to maintain the Confidential Information in accordance with this License Agreement. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this License Agreement shall survive the termination of this License Agreement and remain in full force and effect until such Confidential Information, through no act or omission of receiving party, ceases to be Confidential Information as defined hereunder.

7. WARRANTY

Software Warranty. Licensor warrants that for a period of ninety (90) days from the applicable Term Start Date (the “Warranty Period”), the Applications will materially conform to the functional specifications set forth in the Documentation (the “Specifications”). Should the Applications fail to materially conform to such Specifications during the Warranty Period, Customer shall promptly notify Licensor in writing on or before the last day of the Warranty Period and identify with specificity the nonconformance. To the extent that the nonconformance exists in a current, unaltered release of the Applications, Licensor shall, at its option (and cost and expense), either (i) correct the nonconformance or, (ii) replace the nonconforming Applications or, (iii) if neither of the foregoing options is commercially reasonable, terminate the license for the Software. Upon such termination of the license and Customer’s return of the Software pursuant to Section 10 below, Licensor will refund to Customer, as Customer’s sole remedy for such Applications, all license fees paid by Customer for such Applications.

Authorized Representative. Customer and Licensor warrant that each has the right to enter into this License Agreement and that the License Agreement and all Quotes executed hereunder shall be executed by an authorized representative of each entity.

Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, Any and all SOFTWARE, documentation, CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION and any other technology or materials provided by LICENSOR to the CUSTOMER are provided “as is” and without warranty of any kind. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE STATED IN THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT, LICENSOR MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

No Modifications. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7, any and all warranties under this License Agreement are void if Customer has made changes to the Software or has permitted any changes to be made other than by or with the express, written approval of Licensor.

8. INFRINGEMENT

Indemnity. Licensor will defend at its expense any cause of action brought against Customer, to the extent that such cause of action is based on a claim that the Software, as delivered by Licensor to Customer, infringes a United States patent, copyright, or trade secret of a third party. Licensor will pay those costs and damages finally awarded by a court of final jurisdiction (with no further appeals being possible) against Customer pursuant to any such claim or paid in settlement of any such claim if such settlement was approved in advance and in writing by Licensor. Customer may retain its own counsel at Customer’s own expense.

Customer Obligations. Licensor shall have no liability under this Section 8 unless: Customer notifies Licensor in writing immediately after Customer becomes aware of a claim or the possibility thereof; and Licensor has sole control of the settlement, compromise, negotiation, and defense of any such action; and Customer cooperates, in good faith, in the defense of any such legal action.

No Liability. Licensor shall have no liability for any claim of infringement based on: (i) Software which has been modified by parties other than Licensor; (ii) Customer’s use of the Software in conjunction with data where use with such data gave rise to the infringement claim; or (iii) Customer’s use of the Software with non-Licensor software or hardware, where use with such other software or hardware gave rise to the infringement claim.

Remedies. Should the Software become, or in Licensor’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Licensor may, at its option: (i) obtain the right for Customer to continue using the Software; (ii) replace or modify the Software so it is no longer infringing or reduces the likelihood that it will be determined to be infringing; or (iii) if neither of the foregoing options is commercially reasonable, terminate the license for the Software. Upon such termination of the licenses and Customer’s return of the Software pursuant to Section 10 below, Licensor will refund to Customer, as Customer’s sole remedy for such license termination, (i) with respect to perpetual licenses, all license fees paid by Customer for the terminated license, less an amount equal to one-thirty-sixth (1/36th) of the license fees for each month or any portion thereof which has elapsed since the Term Start Date of such terminated license or (ii) with respect to subscription licenses, the subscription fees paid by Customer for the terminated license for the past twelve (12) months. This Section 8 states the entire liability of Licensor with respect to any claim of infringement regarding the Software.

9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

LIABILITY CAP. LICENSOR’S (AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS AND AGENTS) LIABILITY ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED, IN THE AGGREGATE, THE FEE ACTUALLY PAID TO LICENSOR FOR THE SOFTWARE LICENSE/SUBSCRIPTION FEE UNDER A QUOTE THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF THE CLAIM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE FILING OF SUCH CLAIM.

DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR (OR ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS OR AGENTS) BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR ANY LOSS OF REVENUE, GOODWILL, PROFITS, DATA OR DATA USE ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT. THE LIABILITIES LIMITED BY SECTIONS 9.1 AND 9.2 APPLY: (i) TO LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE; (ii) REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE; (iii) EVEN IF LICENSOR IS ADVISED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE DAMAGES IN QUESTION AND EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE; (iv) ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS, AND (v) EVEN IF CUSTOMER’S REMEDIES FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. IF APPLICABLE LAW LIMITS THE APPLICATION OF THIS SECTION 9, LICENSOR’S (AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS AND AGENTS) LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMISSIBLE.

10. TERM AND TERMINATION

A “Staff User Account” subscription license means that the Application licensed pursuant to the Quote may be Used by a limited number of individual users, each identified by a unique user id the maximum number of which is specified in the Quote. Customer may designate different Staff User Accounts at any time without notice to Service Provider so long as the permitted number of Staff User Account is not exceeded.

CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE CONTAINS A DISABLING DEVICE THAT WILL AUTOMATICALLY DISABLE THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE THIRTY (30) CALENDAR DAYS FROM INSTALLATION OR AS OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING BY THE PARTIES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, EVALUATION SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. LICENSOR MAKES NO WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR ARISING BY CUSTOM OR TRADE USAGE, AND SPECIFICALLY MAKES NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT.

Production and Production Backup. The sum of License Units for Production and Production Backup must not exceed the maximum number of License Units set forth in the Quote.

Non-Production. If Customer ordered or obtained the Software for Non-Production use, then the Software is subject to the additional restriction that it may not be deployed for Production or Production Backup Use. The number of License Units for Non-Production is unlimited provided that: (i) Customer has purchased the Software on a subscription license basis, or (ii) Customer has purchased Production and Production Backup Software licenses and such licenses are not terminated pursuant to the Perpetual License Agreement or the Subscription Agreement.
