  2.5            IN ADDITION TO ANY DISCLAIMERS IN SECTION 8.4, ANY TRIAL PRODUCTS AND BETA VERSIONS ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS-IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AT CUSTOMER’S SOLE RISK.  NIMBUS-T SHALL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR CUSTOMER’S USE OF THE TRIAL PRODUCTS OR BETA VERSIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY.  Nimbus-T  does not provide support for Trial Products or Beta Versions.  Trial Products and Beta Versions may be subject to reduced or different security, compliance and privacy commitments.  The following Sections of this Agreement shall not apply to Trial Products or Beta Versions: 2.7, 6.6, 6.7, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 9.1 and 10.1. 

  2.6            Delivery, Installation and Acceptance of the Software.
   

  (a)            Delivery, Installation and Acceptance of the Software.  The Software will be delivered to Customer by electronic download.  Customer will be solely responsible for installing any Software as permitted under this Agreement unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form. All Software will be deemed accepted upon delivery. 

  (b)            Nimbus-T Assistance.  In the event that Customer requires any administration, training, installation, health check, or similar services with respect to the Products, any such services and related Fees shall be set forth in an Order Form and such services shall be provided by Nimbus-T without the need for a separate professional services agreement unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties. 

  2.7            Support for Products.  Nimbus-T will provide those Support Services for the Products in accordance with Nimbus-T’s support agreement available (the “Support Policy”).  Nimbus-T is not obligated under the terms of this Agreement to provide any customer service or support to any User other than Administrators; such responsibility (if any) shall remain with Customer. 

  2.8            Order Forms.  Customer and its Affiliates may place orders under this Agreement by executing Order Form(s).  When an Affiliate of Customer signs an Order Form under this Agreement, the Affiliate shall be considered the Customer for purposes of such Order Form and shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

  2.9            Resellers. In the event that Customer purchases subscriptions to the Products through an authorized reseller of Nimbus-T (a “Reseller”), no Order Forms will be executed between Nimbus-T and Customer.  Nimbus-T’s official ordering documentation with the Reseller will contain the details of the subscriptions to the Products (including the scope of permitted use, quantities of licenses, etc.), and references to Order Forms herein will refer to such documentation. Customer should obtain such details from the Reseller, but Nimbus-T can also confirm to Customer any such details of the subscription other than amounts payable.  Fees and Taxes (if any) will be payable to Reseller, and the billing and payment terms will be determined pursuant to Customer’s agreement(s) with Reseller in lieu of Section 4 hereof.  Resellers have no authority to modify any of the terms of this Agreement, and may not grant Customer any rights to the Products beyond what is set forth in the ordering documentation between Nimbus-T and Reseller. 

  3. Use Guidelines; Restrictions. Customer shall use the Products solely for its own business purposes in accordance with this Agreement and any related Order Form. Customer shall obtain any required authorizations or consents from Users and Third-Party Providers (defined later herein) for the transmission of Customer Data to Nimbus-T and other third parties in connection with the Products and related processing by such persons, including as may be necessary under any data protection laws and regulations.  Customer shall not: (i) license, sublicense, sell, resell, rent, lease, transfer, assign, distribute, time share, operate as a service bureau or managed service, or otherwise commercially exploit or make the Products available to any third party except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) modify, adapt, alter, translate or create derivative works of the Products; (iii) frame or mirror any content forming part of the Service, other than on Customer’s own intranets or otherwise for its own internal business purposes; (iv) reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Products (or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Software); (v) take any action that would cause the Products (including any license key) to be placed in the public domain; (vi) remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices of Nimbus-T, its licensors or supplier included in the Products; (vii) send or store Malicious Code or infringing, obscene, threatening, libelous, or otherwise unlawful or tortious material or spam; (viii) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service or the data contained therein, including conducting any load or penetration testing on the Service; (ix) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its related systems or networks; or (x) access the Products in order to (a) build a competitive product or service, or (b) copy any ideas, features, functions or graphics of the Products. 
  4. Fees & Payment; Audit.
     

  4.1            Fees.  Customer shall pay all fees specified in any Order Forms hereunder (the “Fees”).  If Customer is purchasing through a Reseller, the applicable Fees will be set forth in Customer’s ordering documentation with the Reseller and such Fees will be remitted to Reseller. Except as otherwise provided, all fees are quoted and payable in United States dollars.  Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, stated fees are based on the scope of the Product subscriptions purchased and not actual usage, payment obligations are non-cancelable, and fees paid are non-refundable.  In the event that Customer is purchasing a subscription based on the number of individual Users, connections or another metric set forth in an Order Form, and Customer’s actual usage exceeds the applicable limit on such metric, overage charges shall apply based on the then-current per-unit rate on the applicable Order Form or as otherwise set forth therein, and Customer shall remit such charges to Nimbus-T. 

  4.2            Invoicing & Payment Terms. All Fees will be invoiced in advance and in accordance with the relevant Order Form.  Unless otherwise stated in an Order Form, charges are due net thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice.  Customer is responsible for maintaining complete and accurate billing and contact information.  This section does not apply if Customer is purchasing through a Reseller. 

  4.3            Overdue Payments.  For those payments that are invoiced, any payment not received from Customer by the due date may accrue (except with respect to charges then under reasonable and good faith dispute), at Nimbus-T’s discretion, late charges at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due until the date paid.  This section does not apply if Customer is purchasing through a Reseller. 

  4.4            Taxes.  Customer is responsible for paying all applicable direct or indirect local, state, federal or foreign taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) associated with its purchases hereunder, above and beyond the Fees, excluding taxes based on Nimbus-T’s net income or property, unless Customer provides Nimbus-T with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.  Unless otherwise stated, all prices set forth on an Order Form are exclusive of Taxes.  This section does not apply if Customer is purchasing through a Reseller. 

  4.5            Suspension of Service for Critical Cause.  Nimbus-T reserves the right to suspend the Service provided to Customer if: (i) Customer is delinquent on any undisputed (in good faith) late payment obligations for more than thirty (30) days following written notice of such late payment; (ii) Nimbus-T reasonably believes that suspension of the Service is necessary to comply with the law or requests of governmental entities; or (iii) Nimbus-T reasonably determines that Customer’s use of the Service in violation of this Agreement poses any security or vulnerability risk to Nimbus-T or the Service.  Customer shall only be responsible for fees and charges during the period of suspension if the underlying cause was Customer’s breach of this Agreement.  Nimbus-T will endeavor to give advance notice of the suspension, to the extent it is able, taking into account the nature of the underlying cause.  Nimbus-T will restore access to the Service as soon as the underlying cause is mitigated.

  4.6            Audit of Software Usage. Nimbus-T will have the right, upon reasonable prior written notice to Customer, at a mutually agreeable time, and no more than once in any twelve (12) month period, to either audit or have an independent audit firm selected by Nimbus-T audit Customer’s equipment on which the Software is installed, and all related back-up files, to verify compliance with this Agreement.  Any such audit will be conducted during normal business hours in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with Customer’s normal operations.  Such audits will be conducted at Nimbus-T’s expense.  In the event that an audit reveals that Customer has failed to pay Fees consistent with its use of the Software, Customer will remit to Nimbus-T the applicable Fees for the overuse, based on the then-current per-unit rate on the applicable Order Form(s), and reimburse Nimbus-T for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Nimbus-T in connection with such audit. 

  5. Confidentiality.

  5.1            Definition of Confidential Information.  As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all confidential and proprietary information of a Party (the “Disclosing Party”) disclosed or made available to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information or the circumstances of disclosure, including without limitation, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Products, business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, pricing information, financial results and information, product designs, product roadmaps, results of penetration testing, security reports or audits and business processes.  Confidential Information shall not include any information that: (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (iii) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; or (iv) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party.  Confidential Information specifically excludes Customer Data and Personal Data.  Customer Data obligations are set forth in Section 6 below and Personal Data obligations are set forth in the DPA.

  5.2            Confidentiality.  The Receiving Party shall not disclose or use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement, except with the Disclosing Party’s prior written permission.  The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its Affiliates and service providers on a need-to-know basis, and such Affiliates and service providers may use such Confidential Information, in each case only for the purposes of fulfilling Receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement.  The Receiving Party shall be liable to the Disclosing Party for all actions and omissions of its Affiliates and service providers with respect to such information as if such actions and omissions were those of the Receiving Party hereunder.

  5.3            Protection.  The Receiving Party agrees to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the same manner that it protects the confidentiality of its own proprietary and confidential information of like kind (but in no event using less than reasonable care), and promptly notify the Disclosing Party upon discovery of any unauthorized access or acquisition of Confidential Information and reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party’s efforts to prevent, investigate and remediate the breach of confidentiality.

  5.4            Compelled Disclosure.  If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, it shall provide the Disclosing Party with prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure.

  5.5            Remedies.  If the Receiving Party discloses or uses (or threatens to disclose or use) any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in breach of confidentiality protections hereunder, the Disclosing Party shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to seek injunctive relief to enjoin such acts, it being specifically acknowledged by the Parties that any other available remedies are inadequate.

  5.6            Retention of Confidential Information. Upon a Party’s written request, the other Party will erase, delete or destroy all copies of Confidential Information of the other Party whether or not modified or merged into other materials, and certify in writing to the other Party that such Party has fully complied with these requirements.  A Party may retain archived copies of Confidential Information or copies that are incapable of being destroyed because it would be unduly burdensome or cost prohibitive, provided that all such copies remain subject to the restrictions herein for so long as they are retained.

  6. Customer Data and Security.

  6.1            Use of Customer Data.  Nimbus-T shall not provide the Customer Data to any third parties except as necessary to operate the Service.  As between Nimbus-T and Customer, Customer owns all rights, title and interest in and to all Customer Data.

  6.3            Nature of Customer Data. Customer represents and warrants that it will not transmit or expose to Nimbus-T any (i) protected health information (as that term is used in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)) or (ii) cardholder data (as regulated by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council) as a part of using the Products, in connection with Support Services, or otherwise under this Agreement. 

  6.4            Compliance with Laws.  Each Party shall comply with all applicable local, state, national and foreign laws in the provision and use of the Products under this Agreement.  Customer agrees that it has control over and/or understands the nature and scope of the Customer Data processed by the Products, and the origin or location of Users. Customer warrants that it will ascertain that Customer Data can be processed under this Agreement by the Service and in connection with any Support Services or professional services, in the locations in which Nimbus-T operates, in accordance with applicable law. Nimbus-T will provide all reasonably necessary information to Customer to allow Customer to make such determination upon Customer’s written request. If required, Customer will include in its applicable privacy policies and/or terms of use any necessary disclosures regarding data collection and usage (including with respect to transfer to third parties) in connection with its use of the Products.

  6.5            Information Security, Audits and Security Assessments.  Nimbus-T will implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate technical, administrative and physical security measures designed to protect against unauthorized access to or use of Customer Data. Nimbus-T shall, at a minimum, maintain the security of the Service and the Customer Data in accordance with the security exhibit available (the “Security Exhibit”). Nimbus-T is and will remain in compliance with the most recent controls established by its SOC-2 and ISO 27001 audits throughout the term of this Agreement.  Upon Customer’s reasonable written request at any time during the term of the Agreement, Nimbus-T will promptly provide Customer with information related to Nimbus-T’s information security safeguards and practices, which may include  one or more of the following as Customer may request: (i) responses to a reasonable information security-related questionnaire, no more than once annually; (ii) copies of relevant third party audits, reviews, tests, or certifications of Nimbus-T’s systems or processes, including an annual SOC 2 Type II report; (iii) its public ISO 27001 certificate and non-public Statement of Applicability; (iv) the results of any recently completed third-party penetration testing on the Service; (v) a summary of Nimbus-T’s operational practices related to data protection and security; and (vi) making Nimbus-T Personnel reasonably available for security-related discussions with Customer. Additional Customer audit rights may apply with regards to Personal Data as set forth in the DPA.

  6.6            Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery.  During the term of this Agreement, Nimbus-T will maintain and comply with its then-current Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans. Nimbus-T will test such plans at least annually.  Upon written request, Nimbus-T will provide (i) a copy of the table of contents to such plan, and (ii) a summary of its annual testing results. 

  6.7            Data Privacy Addendum.  The Data Privacy Addendum set forth (the “DPA”) is incorporated by reference in to this Agreement. 

  6.8            Intelligence Service Features.  Nimbus-T may collect and utilize Customer Data and information derived from Customer’s use of the Products internally to improve and develop its product offerings.  In addition, Nimbus-T owns any usage data derived from the operation of the Products that has been aggregated and de-identified so that results are non-personally identifiable with respect to Customer or any User (“Aggregated Data”), and nothing herein will prohibit Nimbus-T from using Aggregated Data in the operation of Nimbus-T’s business. For clarity, Nimbus-T may only disclose Aggregated Data externally in a de-identified (anonymous) form that does not identify Customers or any Users, and that is stripped of all persistent identifiers (such as device identifiers, IP addresses, and cookie IDs). Nimbus-T will retain, and Customer expressly disclaims, all intellectual property and other rights in any products or services Nimbus-T develops pursuant to the usage rights herein.

  7. Proprietary Rights.

  7.1            Reservation of Rights.  Subject to the limited rights expressly granted hereunder, Nimbus-T all rights, title and interest in and to the Products (and any enhancements, modifications, or derivative works thereof, or other software development performed by Nimbus-T), including all related intellectual property rights.  No rights are granted to Customer hereunder other than as expressly set forth herein.

  7.2            Suggestions. Nimbus-T shall have a royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, irrevocable, perpetual license to use or incorporate into the Products any suggestions, enhancement requests, recommendations or other feedback provided by Customer or its Users relating to the operation of the Products.

  8.1            Warranties.  Each Party represents that it has the legal power to enter into this Agreement.  Nimbus-T warrants that it will provide the Products in a manner consistent with industry standards applicable to the provision thereof, and will provide the Support Service and any professional services in a good, professional and workmanlike manner consistent with applicable industry standards.

  8.2            Performance Warranty for Software.  For a period of ninety (90) days after the date of delivery of the Software (the “Warranty Period”), Nimbus-T warrants that the Software, when used as permitted by Nimbus-T and in accordance with the Documentation, will operate substantially as described in the Documentation.  Nimbus-T will, at its own expense and as its sole obligation and Customer’s exclusive remedy for any breach of this warranty, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) correct any material reproducible error that Customer reports to Nimbus-T in writing during the Warranty Period, or (ii) replace the defective Software.  In the event that Nimbus-T, in its sole discretion, may not achieve either (i) or (ii) as a remedy for breach of this warranty, Nimbus-T agrees to accept return of the Software, terminate the license to the defective Software and refund Customer all unused, prepaid fees with respect to the defective Software.

  8.3            Harmful Code.  Nimbus-T warrants that it will use commercially reasonable efforts, using industry standard practices, to ensure that the Products, in the form provided by Nimbus-T to Customer, do not contain Malicious Code.

  9. Indemnification.

  9.1            Indemnification by Nimbus-T. Subject to the terms of the Agreement, Nimbus-T will defend at its own expense any action against Customer brought by a third party alleging that the Products, in each case, as delivered, infringe any U.S., UK or EU patents issued as of the Effective Date or any copyrights or misappropriate any trade secrets, in each case, of a third party, and Nimbus-T will indemnify and hold Customer harmless against those costs and damages finally awarded against Customer in any such action that are specifically attributable to such claim or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such action.  The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Customer’s compliance with the Indemnification Conditions (defined below).  If the Products become, or in Nimbus-T’s opinion are likely to become, the subject of an infringement claim, Nimbus-T may, at its option and expense, either: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Products; (ii) replace or modify the Products so that they become non-infringing; or (iii) terminate the subscription to the infringing Products and refund Customer any unused, prepaid fees for the infringing Products covering the remainder of the subscription term after the date of termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nimbus-T will have no obligation or liability under this Section 9.1 or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon: (a) any use of the Products not in accordance with this Agreement; (b) any use of the Products in combination with products, equipment, software, or data not supplied or approved in writing by Nimbus-T  if such infringement would have been avoided but for the combination with other products, equipment, software or data; (c) any use of a prior release of the Software after a more current release has been made available to Customer; or (d) any modification of the Products by any person other than Nimbus-T.  This Section 9.1 states Nimbus-T’s entire liability and the Customer’s exclusive remedy for any claims of infringement. 

  9.2                              Indemnification by Customer.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Customer will defend at its own expense any action against Nimbus-T brought by a third party (including any User) (i) alleging that Nimbus-T’s possession or use of the Customer Data violates or misappropriates the rights of, or has otherwise harmed, a third party, or (ii) concerning a User’s use of the Service (provided it is not due to Nimbus-T’s breach of this Agreement), and Customer will indemnify and hold Nimbus-T harmless against those costs and damages finally awarded against Nimbus-T in any such action that are specifically attributable to such claim or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such action.  The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Nimbus-T’s compliance with the Indemnification Conditions (defined below). 

  9.3                              Indemnification Conditions.  “Indemnification Conditions” means the following conditions, which a Party must comply with to be entitled to the defense and indemnification obligations of the other Party under this Agreement.  The indemnified Party must (i) notify the indemnifying Party promptly in writing of such claim or allegation, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances surrounding the claim; (ii) give the indemnifying Party sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations, including not making any admission of liability or take any other action that limits the ability of the indemnifying Party to defend the claim; and (iii) cooperate and, at the indemnifying Party’s request and expense, assisting in such defense.

  12.6         Third-Party Services.  The Products may be used by Customer to interface with certain third-party services and applications elected by Customer (“Third-Party Services”). Customer’s agreements with the providers of such Third-Party Services (the “Third-Party Providers”) govern Customer’s use of the Third-Party Services, including without limitation Customer’s and the Third-Party Providers’ use of any data of Customer (including Customer Data) that may be provided to or received from the Third-Party Service by the Products. Customer will comply with all laws applicable to the data it receives from any Third-Party Services through the Products. Nimbus-T shall have no liability with respect to such Third-Party Services or Third-Party Providers, and Customer will look solely to Third-Party Providers with respect thereto. Certain connectors, flows and/or integrations to Third-Party Services may be made available for deployment by Customer within the Products. In the event that any such connectors, flows and/or integrations are designated as developed by or provided by a third party other than Nimbus-T, or another similar designation (“Third-Party Provided Connectors”), then Nimbus-T shall not have any responsibility or liability under this Agreement with respect to such Third-Party Provided Connectors. Use of such Third-Party Provided Connectors may be subject to additional terms and conditions presented in connection with the deployment or use of such Third-Party Provided Connectors, and this Agreement shall not supersede any such terms and conditions notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer will comply with Section 3 of this Agreement with respect to Third-Party Provided Connectors. Nimbus-T does not guarantee that the Products will interoperate with any particular Third-Party Service, and Nimbus-T ‘s support obligations shall not extend to any Third-Party Services.

  12.8         Assignment.  Neither Party may assign or transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement (including its licenses with respect to the Software) to any third party without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party shall have the right to assign this Agreement to any successor to its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of stock, reorganization or otherwise; provided that such assignment is not to a competitor of the other Party.  Unless otherwise specifically agreed to by the non-assigning Party, no assignment by either Party shall relieve the assignor from its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.  Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.  All provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the respective successors and permitted assigns of Nimbus-T  and Customer.
