The sharing of username and password information to access the Platform is strictly prohibited.

Each party agrees that during the term of this Agreement and thereafter: (a) it will use Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing Party solely for the purposes of this Agreement; and (b) it will not disclose Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing Party to any third party (other than the Receiving Party’s employees, contractors and/or professional advisors on a need-to-know basis who are bound by obligations of nondisclosure and limited use consistent with those contained herein) without first obtaining the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent.

(a)Indemnity. Except as provided below, Setpoint Technologies will indemnify, defend and hold Customer harmless from liability to unaffiliated third parties resulting from infringement by the Platform of any United States patent or any copyright or misappropriation of any trade secret.

If (i) and (ii) are not reasonably available to Setpoint Technologies, then it may terminate this Agreement with respect to the infringing aspects of the Platform upon written notice to Customer and refund to Customer any Fees for the Platform that were pre-paid for the then-current term, pro-rated for the remainder thereof in respect of such infringing aspects of the Platform.

10.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Order Forms) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior negotiations, understandings or agreements (oral or written), between the parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement. Any inconsistent or additional terms on any related purchase order, vendor form, invoices, policies, confirmation or similar form, even if signed by the parties hereafter, will have no effect under this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Order Form, the terms of this Agreement will control unless otherwise explicitly set forth in an Order Form. No modification, consent or waiver under this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period will not be construed as a waiver of such rights. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

10.2. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.

10.3. Remedies. Each party agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of Section 3.1 (Restrictions) or 4 (Confidentiality), the non-breaching party may suffer irreparable damage for which it may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable remedies in any competent court to prevent or restrain such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of posting any bond or other surety.

10.4. Notices. All notices under this Agreement will be in writing and delivered to the parties at their respective physical or e-mail addresses stated herein or at such other address designated by written notice in accordance with this Section. Notices will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by e-mail; the day after being sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service; or upon receipt, if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

10.5. Force Majeure.

10.6. Publicity. Customer hereby grants to Setpoint Technologies a non-exclusive, royalty-free, limited license to use Customer’s name, logo and trademark(s) (collectively “Trademarks”) on Setpoint Technologies’ website and in other marketing materials to identify Customer as a customer, provided that Setpoint Technologies will: (a) only use Trademarks in the form and manner and in accordance with the quality standards and usage guidelines that Customer specifically prescribes; and (b) immediately cease all use of the Trademarks upon termination of this Agreement for any reason.

10.7. Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned, in whole or in part, by either party without the other party’s written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. However, without consent, Setpoint Technologies may assign this Agreement to any successor to all or substantially all of its business that concerns this Agreement (whether by sale of assets or equity, merger, consolidation or otherwise). This Agreement will be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors, representatives and permitted assigns of each party hereto.

10.8. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is entered into solely between, and may be enforced only by, Customer and Setpoint Technologies. This Agreement will not be deemed to create any rights in third parties or to create any obligations of a party to any third parties.

10.9. Independent Contractors. The parties will be independent contractors under this Agreement, and nothing herein will constitute either party as the employer, employee, agent or representative of the other party, or both parties as joint venturers or partners for any purpose.
