4. Fees and Payment
o Fees. Customer shall pay to Company license fees (“License Fees”) in the amounts and according to the terms and conditions of the Master Subscription Agreement. Subscription Fees are Non-Refundable for the Term of the Agreement. If Customer upgrades their plan during the Term, the pro-rata contract amount for the remaining period will be credited to Customer against any new contract license fees and Customer shall the difference in fees for the remaining Term.

o Interest. Any amounts payable by Customer to Company hereunder which remain overdue for thirty (30) days or longer shall be subject to interest equal to the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month and the maximum amount permitted by law, calculated on a daily basis.

5. Taxes. All prices set forth in this Agreement are in U.S. Dollars and are exclusive of any applicable taxes. Customer shall pay, indemnify, and hold Company harmless from all import and export duties, customs fees, levies, or imposts, and all sales, use, value added, or other fees, governmental charges, or taxes of any nature (other than U.S. taxes on Company’s income), including penalties and interest, and all government permit or license fees assessed upon or with respect to any products sold, leased, or licensed to Customer and any services rendered to Customer. If Customer is required by law to make any deduction or to withhold any amount from any sum payable to Company by Customer hereunder, (a) Customer shall remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authorities and promptly furnish Company with tax receipts evidencing the payments of such amounts, and (b) the sum payable by Customer upon which the deduction or withholding is based shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after such deduction or withholding, Company receives and retains, free from liability for such deduction or withholding, a net amount equal to the amount Company would have received and retained in the absence of such required deduction or withholding.

6. Proprietary Rights
As between Company and Customer, Company and its licensors own and shall retain all right, title and interest, including, without limitation, all Intellectual Property Rights, in and to the Licensed Software and the Service and any portions thereof, including, without limitation, any copy or Derivative Work of the Licensed Software or Service (or any portion thereof) and any Updates thereto. Customer agrees to take any action reasonably requested by Company to evidence, maintain, enforce, or defend the foregoing. Customer shall not take any action to jeopardize, encumber, limit, or interfere in any manner with Company’s or its licensors’ ownership of and rights with respect to the Licensed Software, or any Derivative Work or Update thereof or thereto. Customer shall have only those rights in and to the Licensed Software and Service and any Derivative Work or Update thereto as are expressly granted to it under this Agreement. Customer shall have the right to transfer ownership of phone numbers assigned to its account from Company to Customer. Customer will be responsible for effecting the transfer and any associated costs incurred by Company in such transfer. Company will provide best efforts to support the transfer.

7. Confidential Information
o Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of five (5) years following the expiration or earlier termination hereof, each party shall maintain in confidence all information of the other party disclosed by the other party (the “Discloser”) and identified as, or acknowledged to be, confidential (the “Confidential Information”), and shall not use, disclose or grant the use of the Confidential Information except on a need-to-know basis to those directors, officers, affiliates, employees, permitted licensees, permitted assignees and agents, consultants, clinical investigators or contractors, to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in connection with such party’s activities. To the extent that disclosure is authorized by this Agreement, prior to disclosure, each party hereto shall obtain agreement of any such person to hold in confidence and not make use of the Confidential Information for any purpose other than those permitted by this Agreement.
o Permitted Disclosures. The confidentiality obligations contained above shall not apply to the extent that (a) any receiving party (the “Recipient”) is required to disclose information by law, order or regulation of a governmental agency or a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that the Recipient shall provide written notice thereof to the Discloser and sufficient opportunity to object to any such disclosure or to request confidential treatment thereof; or (b) the Recipient can demonstrate that (i) the disclosed information was public knowledge at the time of such disclosure to the Recipient, or thereafter became public knowledge, other than as a result of actions of the Recipient in violation hereof; (ii) the disclosed information was rightfully known by the Recipient (as shown by its written records) prior to the date of disclosure to the Recipient by the other party hereunder; (iii) the disclosed information was disclosed to the Recipient on an unrestricted basis from a source unrelated to any party to this Agreement and not under a duty of confidentiality to the Discloser; or (iv) the disclosed information was independently developed by the Recipient without use of the Confidential Information disclosed by the Discloser.
o Equitable Relief. The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique nature of the Confidential Information, there can be no adequate remedy at law to compensate the Discloser for the breach of this Section 7; that any such breach may result in irreparable harm to the Discloser that would be difficult to measure; and, therefore, that upon any such breach or threat thereof, the Discloser shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other appropriate equitable relief (without the necessity of proving actual damages or of posting a bond), in addition to whatever remedies it may have at law, hereunder, or otherwise.

8. Representations and Warranties
o Mutual Representation. Each party represents and warrants to the other party that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not and shall not contravene or constitute a default under, and is not and shall not be inconsistent with, any judgment decree or order, or any contract, agreement, or other undertaking, applicable to such party.
o Limited Warranty. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Company represents and warrants to Customer that the Local Program, when used in accordance with the Documentation, shall throughout the Term substantially conform to the functional specifications in such Documentation as delivered to Customer. If Customer finds what it reasonably believes to be a failure of the Local Program to substantially conform to the functional specifications in the Documentation, and provides Company with a written report that describes such failure in sufficient detail to enable Company to reproduce such failure, Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to correct or provide a workaround for such failure at no additional charge to Customer. COMPANY MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT ALL ERRORS, FAILURES, OR DEFECTS SHALL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICE SHALL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE PROVIDED BY COMPANY, ITS AGENTS, OR ITS EMPLOYEES, SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THE WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT. Except as provided in Section 3, this Section states the entire liability of Company and the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer with respect to any express or implied warranties hereunder or otherwise in connection with this Agreement.
o Exclusive Warranty. THE EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8 CONSTITUTES THE ONLY WARRANTY MADE BY COMPANY WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE, THE SERVICE, AND ANY OTHER SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT. COMPANY MAKES NO OTHER, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER, REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED (EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW), OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE, THE SERVICE, OR ANY OTHER SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT. COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SUITABLE QUALITY, AND NONINFRINGEMENT, AND ALL WARRANTIES THAT MAY ARISE FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE OF TRADE. COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE OR THE SERVICE SHALL BE ERROR-FREE OR SECURE, OR THAT OPERATION OF THE LICENSED SOFTWARE OR THE SERVICE SHALL BE UNINTERRUPTED, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. This Section 7 shall be enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law.
o Defects Not Covered by Warranties. Company shall have no obligations under Section 8 if any nonconformance or failure of, or error in, the Licensed Software is caused by: (a) use of any attachment, feature, hardware, software, or device in connection with the Licensed Software or the Service; (b) misuse of the Licensed Software or the Service, or any use of the Licensed Software or the Service that is not in accordance with this Agreement and/or the Documentation; (c) alteration, modification, or enhancement of the Licensed Software or the Service; or (d) failure to provide a suitable installation or use environment for all or any part of the Licensed Software or the Service.

9. Indemnification
o Indemnity Obligations of Company. Company shall defend any action brought against Customer to the extent it is based on a third party claim that use by Customer of the Licensed Software as furnished hereunder, which use is in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, directly infringes any valid United States copyright, or trade secret; or in the event that Customer suffers any loss due to a Company breach of any patient confidentiality laws, including HIPAA. Company shall not indemnify or defend Customer in the event that Customer breaches patient confidentiality laws, including HIPAA, while using Company software. Company shall pay any liabilities, costs, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) finally awarded against Customer in such action that are attributable to such claim, provided: (a) Customer promptly notifies Company in writing of any such claim; (b) Company has sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations; and (c) Customer cooperates with Company, at Company’s expense, in defending or settling such claim. In addition to the foregoing, Customer agrees to promptly notify Company of any known or suspected infringement or misappropriation of Company’s proprietary rights of which Customer becomes aware. Should the Licensed Software or the Service become, or be likely to become in Company’s opinion, the subject of any claim of infringement, Company may, at its option: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the potentially infringing materials; (ii) replace or modify the potentially infringing materials to make them non-infringing; or (iii) terminate this Agreement.
o Exclusions. Company shall have no liability for any claim based upon: (a) the use, operation, or combination of the Licensed Software or the Service with non-Company programs, data, equipment, or documentation if liability would have been avoided but for such use, operation, or combination; (b) use of other than the then-current, unaltered version of the Licensed Software or Service; (c) Customer’s activities after Company has notified Customer that Company believes such activities may result in infringement; (d) any modifications to or markings of the Licensed Software or the Service that are not specifically authorized in writing by Company; (e) any third party software; (f) any Customer Materials; or (g) Customer’s breach or alleged breach of this Agreement. This Section 9 states the entire liability of Company and the exclusive remedy of Customer with respect to infringement of any intellectual property or other rights, whether under theory of warranty, indemnity, or otherwise.

10. Limitation of Liability
o Limited Remedy. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF USE OR DATA, OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, OR FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, EVEN IF COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED.
o Maximum Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary or the failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy or limitation of liability, Company’s entire liability arising from or relating to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, under any legal theory (whether in contract, tort, indemnity or otherwise), shall not exceed the amounts actually received by Company from Customer hereunder, unless the liability pertains to the Company’s obligations under Section 8.

11. Term and Termination
o Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for an initial period until one (1) year from the first date of active service (unless otherwise specified in the MSA) and shall automatically renew for successive one (1) month periods unless either party notifies the other of its intention not to renew prior to the end of the then-current term.
o Termination for Default. If either party materially defaults in any of its obligations under this Agreement, the non-defaulting party, at its option, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party unless, within thirty (30) calendar days after written notice of such default, the defaulting party remedies the default, or, in the case of a default which cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) calendar days, the defaulting party institutes within the thirty (30) day period substantial steps necessary to remedy the default and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event Customer breaches Sections 2 and/or 7 of this Agreement, Company may immediately terminate this Agreement. Customer shall notify Company within twenty-four (24) hours of Customer’s becoming aware of any breach (other than by Company) of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any breach of Sections 2 or 7.
o Termination for Bankruptcy. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party (a) becomes insolvent; (b) fails to pay his, her or its debts or perform its obligations in the ordinary course of business as they mature; (c) is declared insolvent or admits in writing its insolvency or inability to pay its debts or perform its obligations as they mature; or (d) becomes the subject of any voluntary or involuntary proceeding in bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, receivership, attachment, or composition, or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, provided that, in the case of an involuntary proceeding, the proceeding is not dismissed with prejudice within sixty (60) days after the institution thereof.
o Effect of Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, all rights and licenses granted to Customer hereunder shall immediately terminate. Within ten (10) days after any termination or expiration of this Agreement, Customer shall, at its sole expense, return to Company (or destroy, at Company’s sole election) all Licensed Software and Confidential Information (and all copies and extracts thereof) then in the possession or under the control of Customer. Customer shall furnish to Company an affidavit signed by an officer of Customer certifying that, to the best of its knowledge, such delivery or destruction has been fully effected. Termination of this Agreement by either party shall not act as a waiver of any breach of this Agreement and shall not act as a release of either party from any liability for breach of such party’s obligations under this Agreement. Neither party shall be liable to the other for damages of any kind solely as a result of terminating this Agreement in accordance with its terms. Either party’s termination of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to any other right or remedy that it may have at law or in equity, and shall not relieve either party of breaches occurring prior to the effective date of such termination. The provisions of Sections 1 (“Definitions”), 2 (“Restrictions”), 6 (“Proprietary Rights”), 7 (“Confidential Information”), 8 (“Representations and Warranties”), 9 (“Indemnification”), 10 (“Limitation of Liability”), 11 (“Term and Termination”) and 12 (“General Provisions”), and Sections 3 (“Updates and Maintenance”) and 4 (“Fees and Payment”) (with respect to amounts accrued but as-yet unpaid), shall survive the expiration or any termination of this Agreement.

• Severability.
