It also applies even if: repair, replacement or a refund for the software does not fully compensate Licensee for any losses. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to Licensee.

CONFIDENTIALITY.

On the expiration or termination of the Agreement, the receiving Party shall promptly return to the disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the disclosing Party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed. Each Party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the date on the Order Form and will expire five (5) years from the date first disclosed to the receiving Party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

NOTICES.

All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (i) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (ii) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (iii) on the date sent by email (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next business day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient; or (iv) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

This agreement describes certain legal rights. Licensee may have other rights under the laws of Licensee state or country. Licensee may also have rights with respect to the party from whom Licensee acquired the Software. This Agreement does not change Licensee rights under the laws of Licensee state or country if the laws of Licensee state or country do not permit it to do so.

EQUITABLE REMEDIES.

Licensee acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by of any of its obligations under Section 3, 12, and 15 of this Agreement would cause Licensor irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, Licensor will be entitled to equitable relief, including in a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity or otherwise.

SEVERABILITY/WAIVER.

If one or more of the provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Licensor will correct Errors (as defined below) according to the following schedule:

Severity	Description
Critical	Fatal: Software is down or effectively unusable as a result of the problem. Problem causes mission-critical impact on the Licensee’s operation with no acceptable workaround or functionality used to perform tasks considered to be essential to Licensee operations, project completion or normal productivity of end-user.
High	Severe Impact: Software is up and running, but the problem causes significant impact and has no acceptable workaround. High impact problem where operation is proceeding, but in a significantly impaired fashion or functionality used to perform tasks considered to be important but not primary to immediate.
Medium	Degraded Operation: Software is up and running and the problem causes only limited or insignificant impact. Important to long-term productivity, but is not causing any work stoppage during normal work hours.
Low	Minimal Impact: Problem does not have significant impact to the Licensee, is intermittent, or pertains to functionality that is not important and infrequently used.

Licensor’s Response Time:

Severity	Acknowledge Receipt of Incident Report	Provide a Fix, Workaround Document correction pages, or Notice of Non-Coverage	Provide an Error Correction, Maintenance Release and/or updated Documentation
Critical	2 Business Hours	3 Business Days	Next Maintenance Release
High	8 Business Hours or next Business Day	5 Business Days	Next Maintenance Release
Medium	2 Business Days	15 Business Days	As Licensor deems reasonably appropriate
Low	7 Business Days	45 Business Days	As Licensor deems reasonably appropriate

“Error” means a failure of the Software to operate under normal use in material conformance with its Documentation.

“Error Correction” means a permanent modification or addition that, when made or added to the Software, brings the operation of the Software into material conformance with its Documentation.

“Fix” shall mean a temporary Software patch designed to mitigate the impact of an error, notwithstanding that the Error still exists.

“Field Fix” shall mean any on-site Maintenance Services requiring Licensor personnel or Licensor Affiliate personnel to provide Maintenance Services at the client site for which travel and living expenses will be billed at cost + 10% in the event that such Maintenance Services are not due to an Error.

“Workaround” means a temporary set of procedures that users may follow to circumvent or mitigate the impact of an Error, notwithstanding that the Error still exists.

Technical Support may take the form of support via email, telephone or an online web-based support desk where questions can be posted for response.
