As between the parties, the Software and the Service, including, but not limited to, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, patents, modifications, improvements and all other software, data, content, user interface, analytics, investigative models and other models related to such, reports, outputs, documentation, manuals, notes, supporting information, any other digital information that Cequence makes available to Customer, and all intellectual property rights related thereto and therein are the exclusive property of Cequence. Except for the rights expressly granted by Cequence to Customer under this Agreement, (i) Cequence (and its suppliers) reserves all right, title and interest in and to the Software and Service and all intellectual property named above and the rights therein, whether created before or during the course of this Agreement and any new intellectual property created and/or provided to Customer hereunder, and (ii) no right, title, ownership interest in or to the Software, Service or other Cequence intellectual property whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise, is granted, assigned or transferred to Customer under or in connection with this Agreement.

In providing Customer Data to Cequence hereunder, Customer warrants that it shall provide such data to Cequence only to the extent necessary for Cequence to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Although the Cequence Privacy Policy protects personal information on a broader level (as defined therein), Customer warrants that it shall not provide any personal information pursuant to this Agreement other than Personal Data, as defined herein. Any Personal Data is subject to Cequence’s Privacy Policy. Upon Customer’s written request during the Subscription Term, Cequence shall deliver to Customer a copy of all Customer Data in Cequence’s possession or control in a mutually agreed, commercially reasonable, and readily accessible format.

The term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information disclosed by either party (the “Discloser”) to the other party (the “Recipient”) in connection with this Agreement that: (i) if disclosed in writing, is marked as “Confidential” or “Proprietary;” (ii) if disclosed orally, is identified as “Confidential” or “Proprietary” at the time of disclosure and is summarized in writing shortly after the oral disclosure; or (iii) information such as source code, object code, documentation, inventions, trade secrets, technical data, data compilations, processes, designs, drawings, methods, know-how, business plans, and pricing. In addition, that which is reserved as Cequence intellectual property under Section 6, the Service, and any modifications, improvements or information related to the foregoing shall be considered Cequence Confidential Information. Recipient shall treat as confidential all Confidential Information of Discloser and shall not use such Confidential Information except as expressly permitted under this Agreement. Recipient shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party without Discloser’s prior written consent; provided, however, that Recipient may disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information to its employees and contractors who have entered into a written agreement with Recipient that is no less protective of Discloser’s Confidential Information than this Agreement and who have a need to know such information (including in order to provide services to Recipient). Recipient shall assume liability for use of the Confidential Information by its employees, agents, and contractors. Recipient shall use the same measures to protect Discloser’s Confidential Information that it uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable measures. Notwithstanding the above, the restrictions of this Section 8 shall not apply to information that: (a) is independently developed by Recipient without any access to the Confidential Information of Discloser; (b) becomes known to Recipient, without restriction, from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation to Discloser and who had a right to disclose it; (c) is or becomes in the public domain through no act or omission of Recipient; or (d) is required to be disclosed pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body (but only to the minimum extent required to comply), provided, however, that Recipient shall provide prompt notice thereof to Discloser and shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or otherwise prevent public disclosure of such information. Except as provided in this Section 8, neither party will disclose any terms of this Agreement to any third party other than to: (x) its attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors under a duty of confidentiality; (y) interested parties under a duty of confidentiality in connection with a proposed merger, any debt or equity financing or any public offering of shares or sale of such party’s business; or (z) in connection with a mutually agreed upon press release.

9.1 Customer Warranties. Customer represents and warrants that (i) it owns the Customer Data or has obtained all applicable permissions, authorizations, or licenses from each of its data sources or systems and has all rights that are or may be necessary to provide the Customer Data hereunder and for Customer and Cequence to collect, process or use such in connection with or as contemplated under this Agreement; and (ii) it has executed all necessary agreements with any Contractors that it has engaged to provide services related to this Agreement and will assume liability for such Contractors’ actions as related to this Agreement, the Service and Cequence Confidential Information. Cequence disclaims any responsibility or liability for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness and intellectual property ownership or right to collect, process, or use the Customer Data.

9.2.1 Performance Warranty. Cequence warrants to Customer that, for a period of ninety (90) days from the Effective Date (the “Warranty Period”), the SaaS, when used as permitted under this Agreement and in accordance with the Documentation, will operate in substantial conformity with the Documentation. Cequence’s sole liability (and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy) for any breach of this warranty shall be, in Cequence’s sole discretion, to use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the non-conformity; provided that Cequence is notified in writing of such non-conformity within the Warranty Period. This warranty shall not apply if: (i) the SaaS is used outside the scope of this Agreement or used inconsistently with the Documentation; (ii) the SaaS is modified or altered in any way except by Cequence; or (iii) any non-conformity in the SaaS is due to misuse of the SaaS by Customer. Any error correction will not extend the original Warranty Period.

9.2.2 Virus Warranty. Cequence warrants to Customer that the Software, as made available through the SaaS, has been tested with commercially recent virus detection software to ensure that when made available, the Software does not contain any viruses that would have the effect of disabling Customer’s systems or providing unauthorized access to Customer Data. In the event Cequence breaches this warranty, Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be for Cequence to use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate the virus from the Software. This warranty shall not apply if: (a) the Software is used outside the scope of this Agreement or inconsistently with the Documentation; (b) the Software is modified or altered in any way except by Cequence; (c) any virus is due to misuse of the Software; or (d) the introduction of any virus is caused by Customer.

9.3 Disclaimer. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 9, THE SOFTWARE, SERVICE AND ANY MATERIALS PROVIDED HEREUNDER ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” AND CEQUENCE MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CEQUENCE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, RESULT, EFFORT, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. CEQUENCE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE, SERVICE OR ANY MATERIALS WILL BE PROVIDED ERROR FREE, WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR WILL FULFILL CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS RELIED ON NO WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 9 AND THAT NO WARRANTIES ARE MADE BY ANY OF CEQUENCE’S SUPPLIERS OR CONTRACTORS. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE PRICES OFFERED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT REFLECT THESE NEGOTIATED WARRANTY PROVISIONS. TO THE EXTENT THAT CEQUENCE CANNOT DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTY AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY WILL BE THE MINIMUM REQUIRED UNDER SUCH LAW.

10.1 Cequence Indemnification. Subject to Sections 10.2 and 10.3, Cequence will (i) defend and/or settle at its own expense any action brought against Customer by a third party, to the extent that such action is based on a claim that the Service infringes such third party’s U.S. patents or Berne Convention copyrights, and (ii) indemnify Customer for those costs and damages finally awarded against Customer in any such action that are attributable to such claim, or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such claim. The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Customer: (a) promptly providing Cequence with written notice of any claim; (b) giving Cequence sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations; and (c) cooperating and, at Cequence’s request and expense, assisting in such defense. Customer may, at its expense, participate in such defense if it chooses. Cequence will not reimburse Customer for any expenses incurred by Customer without the prior written approval of Cequence.

10.2 Infringement Remedy. If the Service becomes, or in Cequence’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement claim that Cequence is required to defend pursuant to Section 10.1, Cequence may (at its option and expense) either (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the affected Service, or (ii) modify the non-conforming Service so that it becomes non-infringing. In the event Cequence is unable to do that which is specified in subsections (i) or (ii), Cequence may terminate Customer’s Subscription to the infringing Service. SECTIONS 10.1 AND 10.2 STATE CEQUENCE’S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR CLAIMS AND ACTIONS RELATED TO INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION OR VIOLATION OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

10.3 Exclusions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cequence will have no obligation under this Section 10 or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim to the extent based upon: (i) any use of the Service not in accordance with this Agreement or the Documentation; (ii) any use of the Service in combination with other products software or data not provided by Cequence; (iii) any modification of the Service by any person or entity other than Cequence; (iv) any intellectual property owned or licensed by Customer; or (v) open source software.

10.4 Customer Indemnification. Customer will defend and/or settle at its own expense any action brought against Cequence by a third party arising from or relating to: (i) any Customer Data or use thereof as contemplated hereunder that infringes any intellectual property or privacy rights; (ii) any sharing of the Service with or (use thereof by) Contractors or Affiliates; and (iii) the exclusions in Section 10.3 (i) – (iv). Further, Customer will indemnify Cequence for those costs and damages finally awarded against Cequence in any such action that are attributable to such claim, or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such claim. The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Cequence: (a) promptly providing Customer with written notice of any claim; (b) giving Customer sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations; and (c) cooperating and, at Customer’s request and expense, assisting in such defense.

Cequence will use commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to prevent unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure of the Customer Data. However, Cequence shall have no responsibility for errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access or other causes beyond Cequence’s control. Customer understands that it is responsible for maintaining appropriate security, protection and backup of the Customer Data. Customer agrees that any log-in credential and private keys generated hereunder are for Customer’s internal use only, and Customer may not sell, transfer or sublicense them to any other entity or person.

To the extent Cequence processes payment account information or cardholder data, Cequence will do so in compliance with the payment card industry data security standard (“PCIDSS”), and hereby acknowledges its responsibility for the security of any cardholder data (as such term is defined in the PCIDSS) that it processes in connection with the Service.

NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO (I) LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF, KNOWS OF, OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND (II) IN THE CASE OF CEQUENCE, ANY CLAIM ATTRIBUTABLE TO ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR OTHER INACCURACIES IN OR DESTRUCTIVE PROPERTIES OF THE SERVICE OR ANY OTHER MATERIALS PROVIDED HEREUNDER.

Customer acknowledges that thirty (30) days following termination it shall have no further access to the Service or any Customer Data provided to the Service, and that Cequence may delete any Customer Data as may have been stored by Cequence at any time.

15.1 Evaluation Product. From time to time, Customer may wish to evaluate the SaaS on a temporary basis for non-commercial use (“Evaluation Service”).

Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be void.

16.5 No Waivers. All waivers must be in writing; any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.

16.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is adjudicated to be unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

16.7 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of California in the United States of America, as such laws apply to contracts between California residents negotiated, executed and performed entirely within California. The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UTICA) and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.

16.9 Purchase Orders. Nothing contained in any purchase order, purchase order acknowledgement, or invoice shall in any way modify or add any additional terms or conditions to this Agreement; purchase orders are non-cancelable and non- refundable.

16.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof. All prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations or representations, whether oral or in writing, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement are superseded and canceled in their entirety.

The terms of this Agreement will control over any conflicting, different or additional provisions in any standard terms and conditions set forth in Customer’s form documents (including any purchase order or pre-printed or click-through agreement contained on Customer’s web site or any Customer form agreement or document), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such documents. An original, facsimile, or electronically signed Agreement or attachment hereto will be considered a valid, executed document.
