2.1 Provision of Service; Access Right. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the applicable Service Term, MasterControl will provide Client with the Service described on one or more Quotation(s), and Client will have a non-exclusive, non-sublicenseable, and nontransferable (except in accordance with Section 12.2) right to access and use the Service and use and display the MasterControl Technology during the applicable Service Term, solely for Client’s internal business purposes. Client may allow Client’s Users to use the Service for this purpose, and Client is responsible for their compliance with this Agreement and the Quotation. The Service includes the standard, currently available features and functionality applicable to the Service, and any new features that augment or enhance such Service, excluding any new modules that MasterControl markets and sells as a separate product. MasterControl will provide the Service and may update the content, functionality, and user interface of the Service from time to time, provided that such updates will not materially reduce or degrade the features or functions of the Service. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Quotation, the Services are purchased on a subscription basis. MasterControl reserves all rights not expressly granted hereunder. MasterControl may create and maintain administrative, support, system, and maintenance accounts within the Service, all with Client Data access for MasterControl and its assigned operators and/or other service providers, in order to deliver the Service. Client acknowledges that the Service is hosted. Accordingly, in order to use the Service, Client understands that: (a) Client must independently have or must independently obtain Internet access, either directly or through devices that access Web-based content, as well as browser software that supports protocols used by MasterControl; (b) Client must follow logon procedures for the Services that support such protocols; and (c) MasterControl assumes no responsibility for the foregoing set forth in (a) and (b).

2.2 Access and License Restrictions. Client will not, and will not cause or permit others to: (i) sublicense, sell, transfer, assign, distribute or otherwise commercially exploit for the benefit of a third party the Service or MasterControl Technology; (ii) modify or create derivative works based on the Service or MasterControl Technology; (iii) “frame” or “mirror” any content provided in connection with the Service; (iv) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, decode, adapt, or otherwise attempt to derive or gain access to the source code of the Service or MasterControl Technology, in whole or in part; (v) copy any features, functions or graphics of the Service or MasterControl Technology; (vi) allow User subscriptions to be shared or used by more than one individual User (except that User subscriptions may be reassigned to new Users replacing individuals who have terminated employment or otherwise changed job status or function and no longer need to use the Service for the purposes described in Section 2.1); (vii) use the Service: (a) to knowingly send unsolicited or unlawful messages; (b) to knowingly send or store infringing, obscene, threatening, harmful, libelous, or otherwise unlawful material, including material harmful to children or violative of privacy rights; (c) to knowingly send or store material containing software viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other harmful computer code, files, scripts, or agents; or (d) in any manner or for any purpose that infringes, misappropriates, or otherwise violates any Intellectual Property Right or other right of any third party, or that violates applicable law; (viii) knowingly interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service or the data contained therein; (ix) bypass or breach any security device or protection used by the Service or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its related systems or networks; or (x) provide, disclose to, or enable use of the Service or MasterControl Technology by persons other than Users.

2.3 Service Level. During the Service Term, MasterControl will maintain the availability of the Service platform production environment in accordance with MasterControl’s standard service level terms, as detailed in MasterControl’s “SaaS Service Level Terms” located at https://www.mastercontrol.com/legal/sla/. MasterControl reserves the right to update the service level terms or any support policies from time to time, provided that no such update will materially and adversely affect Client’s rights as provided under the preceding service level commitment or support policy.

2.4 Storage and License Limits. MasterControl reserves the right to invoice Client for and to the extent Client exceeds any maximum storage capacity or number of subscription licenses specified in the Quotation.

2.5 Professional Services. MasterControl will provide such resources and utilize such MasterControl employees and/or consultants as MasterControl deems necessary to perform the Professional Services described in a Quotation. The manner, method, means, and personnel used by MasterControl to perform the Professional Services are subject to MasterControl’s sole discretion. Client agrees to provide MasterControl with any required Client Materials needed for MasterControl to perform the Professional Services, and Client hereby grants MasterControl a royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use such materials for the sole purpose of enabling MasterControl to perform the Professional Services. Client agrees to cooperate in good faith to allow MasterControl to achieve completion of the Professional Services in a timely and professional manner. If performance of any particular Professional Service is dependent upon performance of tasks by Client or by a third party outside of MasterControl’s control, and the Client or third party causes the delay, then the projected dates for performing such Professional Service will be reasonably adjusted. Client acknowledges and agrees that: (a) MasterControl is not a contract development services provider; (b) this Agreement does not include any programming services for new software development or software modifications; and (c) MasterControl is not providing to Client any MasterControl Technology pursuant to this Section 2.5 and, instead, such MasterControl Technology (and the associated Service) is being provided, if at all, pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1 (Provision of Service; Access Right) and subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2 (Access and License Restrictions). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Client further acknowledges that the Service and MasterControl Technology are significant and valuable assets of MasterControl’s business and, as such, MasterControl shall have complete control of the design and development of the Service and MasterControl Technology, including any and all updates thereto. Therefore, MasterControl has the right, and sole discretion, to reject any request for enhancement or modification to the Service and/or MasterControl Technology by Client. Should Client request a modification of any element of the Service or MasterControl Technology, and should MasterControl, in its sole discretion, elect to provide such modification, Client understands that such modification may form a part of the Service and, if so, will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2.6 Purchases by Affiliates. Any Client Affiliate may enter into separate Quotations with MasterControl under this Agreement. Each such Quotation must specifically incorporate this Agreement by reference or Client Affiliate shall sign an Affiliate Agreement confirming acceptance of this Agreement, and will be deemed a separate contract between the parties who execute it, independent of any other Quotation. Each Client Affiliate will only be liable for the obligations expressly set forth in a Quotation to which it has agreed. A Quotation executed by one Client Affiliate may also cover use by other Client Affiliate(s), to the extent set forth in that Quotation; in such cases, the Client Affiliate executing the Quotation or Affiliate Agreement will remain fully liable for the acts and omissions of all such covered Client Affiliates. Where a Quotation is executed by MasterControl and a Client Affiliate, the term “Client” used in this Agreement will be deemed to refer to the executing Client Affiliate where required.

3. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES.

3.1 Responsibility for Users. Client will abide by all applicable laws, treaties, and regulations in connection with use of the Service. Client acknowledges and agrees that each User (or any person logging into the Service using a User’s access credentials) will be considered an authorized Client agent, and that Client will be responsible and liable for the acts and omissions of all such use of the Service (including the provision, receipt, and/or other processing of Client Materials) under Client’s account. Client acknowledges that Client’s access information, including User IDs and passwords of its Users, will be Client’s “key” to the Service and, accordingly, Client will be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of such access information (including each User ID and password). Client will: (i) notify MasterControl promptly if it becomes aware of any unauthorized use of any password or account or any other known or suspected breach of security; (ii) report to MasterControl immediately and use reasonable efforts to promptly stop any copying or distribution of MasterControl Technology that is known or suspected by Client or Client’s Users; and (iii) not impersonate another MasterControl user or provide false identity information to gain access to or use the Service.

6.3 Effect of Nonpayment. This Agreement, and Client’s access to the Service, may be suspended or terminated if Client’s account falls into arrears. Unpaid, undisputed amounts are subject to interest at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum permitted by law plus all collection costs. Client will continue to be charged for Services during any period of suspension.

If the Service or MasterControl Technology becomes, or in MasterControl’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement claim and its use is enjoined, MasterControl may, at its option, either: (1) procure for Client the right to continue using the Service or MasterControl Technology as permitted under this Agreement, (2) replace or modify the Service or MasterControl Technology so that it becomes non-infringing, or if after attempting (1) and (2), MasterControl determines that neither is feasible, then MasterControl will: (3) terminate Client’s use of the Service or MasterControl Technology and give Client a prorated refund of the subscription paid by Client, less a reasonable allowance for the period of time Client has had access to the Service or MasterControl Technology (based on the number of months in the applicable payment period (e.g., for an annual payment, the refund will be prorated over 12 months), in which event, Client’s right to use the applicable Service and/or MasterControl Technology will immediately terminate. MasterControl will have no obligations under this Section 9 or otherwise for claims arising from: (i) Client’s or any User’s use of the Service other than as permitted under this Agreement; (ii) the combination of the Service with any Client Materials or any Client or third party products, services, hardware, data, content, or business process(s); (iii) failure by Client to timely implement any modifications, upgrades, replacements, or enhancements made available to Client by or on behalf of MasterControl; or (iv) from the modification of the Service or any MasterControl Technology by any party other than MasterControl or MasterControl’s agents. The foregoing is MasterControl’s sole and exclusive obligation for the foregoing third party claims.

9.2 By Client. Client will indemnify, defend and hold MasterControl harmless from and against any and all third party claims, costs, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) to the extent arising out of or in connection with a claim (a) alleging that use of the Client Materials infringes a copyright, trademark, or trade secret, privacy, or publicity rights of a third party; or (b) arising from the breach of this Agreement by Client or Client’s Users. The foregoing is Client’s sole and exclusive obligation, and MasterControl’s sole and exclusive remedy, for the foregoing third party claims.

9.3 Indemnity Process. Each party’s indemnification obligations are conditioned on the indemnified party: (a) promptly giving written notice of the claim to the indemnifying party; (b) giving the indemnifying party sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim (provided that the indemnifying party may not settle any claim unless the settlement unconditionally releases the indemnified party of all liability for the claim); (c) providing to the indemnifying party all available information and assistance in connection with the claim, at the indemnifying party’s request and expense; and (d) not compromising or settling such claim. The indemnified party may participate in the defense of the claim, at the indemnified party’s sole expense (not subject to reimbursement).

10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

10.1 Exclusion of Damages. NEITHER PARTY NOR ITS LICENSORS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SIMILAR DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, PROFITS, OR USE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, OR FOR ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, ANY INTERRUPTION, INACCURACY OR ERROR IN THE CONTENT, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT MASTERCONTROL’S LICENSORS WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

10.2 Liability Cap. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN SECTION 10.3, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY EXCEED THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY CLIENT FOR THE THEN-CURRENT ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION TERM, UNDER THE APPLICABLE QUOTATION(S) RELATING TO THE CLAIM.

10.3 Liability Exclusions. THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS IN SECTION 10.1 AND SECTION 10.2 DO NOT APPLY TO: (i) A BREACH OF SECTION 2.2 OR SECTION 3.1, (ii) INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 9, (iii) BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.1, OR (iv) MISUSE OF THE OTHER PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

10.4 Limitations Fair and Reasonable. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN REFLECT THE ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, THE ECONOMIC TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT.

11. CONFIDENTIALITY.

11.1 General. Recipient may use Discloser’s Confidential Information solely to perform Recipient’s obligations or exercise its rights hereunder. Recipient may not disclose, or permit to be disclosed, Discloser’s Confidential Information to any third party without Discloser’s prior written consent, except that Recipient may disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information solely to Recipient’s employees and/or subcontractors who have a need to know and who are bound in writing to keep such information confidential pursuant to confidentiality agreements consistent with this Agreement. Recipient agrees to exercise due care in protecting Discloser’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure, and in any case will not use less than the degree of care a reasonable person would use. The foregoing will not apply to any information that: (i) is in the public domain through no fault of Recipient; (ii) was properly known to Recipient, without restriction, prior to disclosure by Discloser; (iii) was properly disclosed to Recipient, without restriction, by another person with the legal authority to do so; (iv) Recipient independently develops without use of Discloser’s Confidential Information; (v) or is expressly permitted to be disclosed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. If the Recipient becomes legally compelled by subpoena or other similar legal process or otherwise by law, rule or regulation to disclose any Confidential Information, the Recipient agrees, to the extent reasonably practicable and permitted by law, rule and regulation, to provide the Discloser with prompt written notice (email being sufficient) of such legal process so that the Discloser may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy at the Discloser’s sole cost and expense or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. Subject to such protective order or other remedy, or if the Discloser waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Recipient agrees to use reasonable efforts to limit the extent of such disclosure to information that is required and to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.

11.2 Protection of Client Data.

(a) In order to protect Client Data as part of the provision of the Service, MasterControl will comply with the following: (a) the relevant MasterControl privacy policies, available at https://www.mastercontrol.com/privacy.html; and (b) MasterControl’s applicable administrative, physical, technical and other safeguards, and other applicable aspects of system and data management, available at https://www.mastercontrol.com/privacy/security-measures/. Client acknowledges that it is not feasible for MasterControl to accommodate conflicting data security requirements from multiple MasterControl clients; accordingly, without limiting MasterControl’s obligations in the first sentence of this Section 11.2(a), MasterControl will use good faith efforts to accommodate Client’s request as and where feasible; however, failure to accommodate Client’s request will not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, MasterControl does not warrant that Client’s use of the Services is risk-free. MasterControl does not provide representations, warranties, or assurances against interception or access and, provided MasterControl complies with the other provisions of this Section 11.2(a), MasterControl will not be responsible for any theft, illegal activity or other unauthorized acts resulting in loss of or damage to Client and/or Client’s computer, Client Data or other property in connection with Client’s use of the Services. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, MasterControl’s liability for breach of any of the foregoing provisions will be limited to the direct damages cap set forth in Section 10 (Limitation of Liability).

(b) To the extent Client Data includes Personal Data (as that term is defined in the Data Processing Addendum (as that term is defined below)), MasterControl will furthermore comply with the most current version of the MasterControl Data Processing Addendum) (the “Data Processing Addendum”). The Data Processing Addendum (a) may be downloaded at http://www.MasterControl.com/privacy.html and is incorporated herein by reference, and (b) will remain in force during the Service Term under the applicable Quotation. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Data Processing Addendum and the terms of this Agreement (including any applicable MasterControl privacy policies), the terms of the Data Processing Addendum will take precedence.

(c) To the extent Client Data includes Protected Health Information (PHI), as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009 (“HITECH”), Client shall be obligated to purchase MasterControl’s HIPAA compliant Service and sign MasterControl’s Business Associate Agreement (the “BAA”). Should Client input PHI into the Service without purchasing MasterControl’s HIPAA compliant Service, they shall be solely liable for any damages, fees, costs and penalties resulting from failure to comply with HIPAA requirements, whether said damages, fees, costs and penalties are assessed against the Client or MasterControl.

(d) Without prejudice to subsections (a), (b) and (c) above, Client is responsible for (i) any required notices, consents and/or authorizations related to Client’s provision of, and MasterControl’s processing of, Client Data (including any Personal Data or PHI) as part of the Services, (ii) any security vulnerabilities, and the consequences of such vulnerabilities, arising from Client Data, including any viruses, Trojan horses, worms or other harmful programming routines contained in Client Data, and (iii) any use by Client or Users of the Services in a manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Also, notwithstanding the generality of this Section 11.2, Client is responsible for: (A) configuring, operating, maintaining, and securing the operating systems and other associated software that Client uses in connection with accessing the Service (including Client Data) that is not provided by MasterControl; and (B) maintaining appropriate security, protection, and backup of Client Data, which may include the use of encryption technology to protect Client Data from unauthorized access, and the routine archiving of Client Data. If Client fails to comply with this paragraph, MasterControl is no longer responsible for the security, integrity or confidentiality of such Client Data.

(e) Unless otherwise specified in the Quotation, Client Data may not include any sensitive or special data that imposes specific data security or data protection obligations on MasterControl in addition to or different from those specified in the Data Processing Addendum or BAA.

12. GENERAL.

12.1 Notices. Notices will be sent by first-class mail, overnight courier, or prepaid post, and will be deemed given 72 hours after mailing or upon confirmed delivery or confirmed receipt. Either party may change its address or recipient for receipt of notices upon written notice to the other party.

12.2 Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement without the other party’s prior written approval, except in connection with a merger, sale of assets, sale of stock, or other transfer of all or substantially all of such party’s business and assets. Any attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

12.3 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement will be governed by Utah law, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of any jurisdiction. Any claims arising out of or in connection with this Agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Salt Lake City, Utah; each party irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof, and agrees to service of process issued or authorized by, any such court in any such action or proceeding. Neither the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods nor the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act will apply to this Agreement.

12.4 Remedies. Except for any remedy that is described herein as a “sole” remedy or obligation, the parties’ rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative. In the event of any breach or apparent breach by either party of the provisions of this Agreement, the other party will be entitled, in addition to all other remedies, to seek an injunction, whether interlocutory or preliminary, and to seek any other equitable relief, before any U.S. court, restraining any such breach. Each party agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of, and agrees that venue is proper in, the aforesaid courts in any such legal action or proceeding.

12.5 Independent Contractors. The parties are independent contractors. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between Client and MasterControl as a result of this agreement or use of the Service.

12.6 U.S. Government End Users. To the extent Client is an agency of or otherwise represents the United Stated federal government, (i) it hereby agrees that the Service qualifies as a “commercial product” as defined by FAR Part 2.101 or the state law corollary, and (ii) MasterControl provides the Service, including related software and technology, for ultimate federal government end use solely in accordance with the following: Government technical data and software rights related to the Service include only those rights customarily provided to the public as defined in this Agreement. This customary access right is provided in accordance with FAR 12.211 (Technical Data) and FAR 12.212 (Software) and, for Department of Defense transactions, DFAR 252.227-7015 (Technical Data – Commercial Items) and DFAR 227.7202-3 (Rights in Commercial Computer Software or Computer Software Documentation). If a government agency has a need for rights not conveyed under these terms, it must negotiate with MasterControl to determine if there are acceptable terms for transferring such rights, and a mutually acceptable written addendum specifically conveying such rights, must be included in any applicable contract or agreement.

12.7 Waiver. The failure of a party to enforce any right or provision in this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless in writing. No modification hereof will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.

12.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Client agrees that Section 10 (Limitation of Liability) will remain in effect notwithstanding the unenforceability of any provision in Section 8 (Representations and Warranties).

12.9 Force Majeure. Neither party shall be responsible for failure or delay of performance if caused by: an act of war, hostility, or sabotage; act of God; pandemic; electrical, internet, or telecommunication outage that is not caused by the obligated party; government restrictions (including the denial or cancelation of any export, import or other license); or other event outside the reasonable control of the obligated party. Each party will use reasonable efforts to mitigate the effect of a force majeure event. If such event continues for more than 30 days, either party may cancel unperformed Services and affected Quotations upon written notice. This Section does not excuse either party’s obligation to take reasonable steps to follow its normal disaster recovery procedures.

12.10 Construction. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. As used in this Agreement, the word “including” means “including but not limited to.”

12.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement comprises the entire agreement between Client and MasterControl and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions, or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding its subject matter. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Quotation, or other exhibit hereto, such conflict will be resolved in the following order: (a) any Quotation; (b) the exhibits; and (c) this Agreement, exclusive of any exhibits. Any preprinted terms on any ordering documents or invoice will have no effect on the terms of this Agreement and are hereby rejected.
