b. Customer Obligations. Customer may enable access to the Service solely for the internal business purposes of Customer and not for the benefit of any third parties (except for any Customer Affiliates identified in an Order Form). Customer is responsible for all use of the Service and compliance with this Agreement and, in the case of Third-Party Materials, the applicable third-party license agreement. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, and legality of all information submitted to Fastpath, including, but not limited to, Customer Data, and Customer shall take commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to, or use of, the Service, and notify Fastpath promptly on becoming aware of any such unauthorized access or use.

c.                   Updates. From time to time, Fastpath shall provide to Customer all updates, bug fixes, enhancements, new releases, new versions, and other improvements to the Service (collectively, “Updates”), including associated Documentation, in each case that are provided/delivered by Fastpath at no additional charge to its other customers.

d.                   Service Levels and Support.

a.                   Term of the Agreement. The term commences on the Effective Date and continues until the stated term in all Order Forms has expired or has otherwise been terminated, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the written agreement of the Parties (“Term”). Subscriptions to the Service commence on the date, and are for a period, as set forth in the applicable Order Form. The term of each Order Form is the period of time specified in such Order Form during which Customer will use the Service (the “Initial Order Term”). At the end of the Initial Order Term, the Order Form will automatically renew for additional 12-month periods (each, an “Order Renewal Term”, and together with the Initial Order Term, the “Order Term”), unless either Party provides the other Party with written notice of termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current Order Term.

b.                   Termination. Either Party may terminate this Agreement (i) for cause upon thirty (30) days written notice of a material breach to the other Party if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period; provided, however, that any such cure period shall be inapplicable to any failure by Customer to pay fees as they become due; or (ii) if the other Party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors.

c.                   Effect of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, Customer shall, as of the date of such expiration or termination, immediately cease accessing or otherwise utilizing the applicable Service and Fastpath Materials. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or in an Order Form, termination for any reason shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees accrued or due and payable to Fastpath prior to the effective date of termination, and termination for any reason other than for uncured material breach by Fastpath shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay all future amount due under all Order Forms.

d.                   Retrieval of Customer Data. During the Order Term, Customer can access its Customer Data at any time. Customer may export and retrieve its Customer Data in a standard format. Export and retrieval may be subject to technical limitations, in which case Fastpath and Customer will find a reasonable method to allow Customer access to Customer Data. At the end of the Order Term, and subject to Section 5(b), Fastpath will delete the Customer Data remaining on the servers hosting the Service.

e.                   Suspension of Service. In addition to any of its other rights or remedies (including, without limitation, any termination rights) set forth in this Agreement, Fastpath reserves the right to immediately suspend Customer’s access to and use of the Service: (i) for Customer’s breach or alleged breach of Section 6(c); (ii) if suspension is necessary to avoid harm to Fastpath or its other customers, including if the Service is experiencing denial of service attacks, mail flooding, or other attacks or disruptions outside of Fastpath’s control; (iii) to prevent or stop the conduct of illegal activity or suspected illegal activity; (iv) to prevent or mitigate damage to Fastpath’s systems or any data stored on such systems; (v) in response to a court order or other lawful order from a law enforcement or other agency; (vi) if Customer is thirty (30) days or more overdue on a payment; or (vii) this Agreement or an Order Form expires or is terminated.

f.                    Protection and Security. Upon Customer’s request, Fastpath will at least annually provide Customer with a copy of Fastpath’s then-current SOC1 and SOC2 audit reports or comparable industry-standard successor reports prepared by Fastpath’s independent third party auditor. Fastpath will implement technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data processed as part of the Service as described in the data processing addendum (“Data Processing Addendum” or “DPA”).

4.                   Fees and Payment.

a.                   Invoices and Payment. Customer shall pay Fastpath the Fees set forth in an Order Form within the agreed payment terms. If Customer fails to make any payment when due then, in addition to all other remedies that may be available, Fastpath may charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month calculated daily and compounded monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable law. Customer shall reimburse Fastpath for all reasonable costs incurred by Fastpath in collecting any late payments or interests, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees.

b.                   Non-cancelable and Non-refundable. Except as specifically permitted under an Order Form, all payment obligations under any and all Order Forms are non-cancelable, and all payments made are non-refundable.

c.                   Taxes. All Fees and other amounts payable by Customer under this Agreement are exclusive of taxes and similar assessments. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer is responsible for all sales, use, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties, and charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state, or local governmental or regulatory authority on any amounts payable by Customer hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on Fastpath’s income.

5.                   Confidential Information.

a.                   Use of Confidential Information; Protective Measures.

(1)                The Confidential Information of each Party is the property of that Party, and other than as set forth in this Agreement, the receiving Party obtains no interest in or to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party.

(2)                The receiving Party shall use at least the same degree of care to protect the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature, but shall use at least reasonable care.

(3)                Each Party shall: (i) hold in confidence all Confidential Information of the other Party; (ii) use such Confidential Information only to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement; and (iii) not transfer, display, convey or otherwise disclose or make available such Confidential Information to any person or entity except to its respective Receiver Personnel.

(4)                The receiving Party shall cause any person or entity to which it discloses the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to handle such Confidential Information in compliance with this Agreement and is liable to the disclosing Party for any failure of persons or entities to do so to the same extent as if such failure had been that of the receiving Party. This clause (4) will not be interpreted as permission for the receiving Party to disclose the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity that does not meet the definition of Receiver Personnel.

(5)                The receiving Party may disclose the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party in response to a valid court order, law, rule, regulation, or other governmental action on the condition that the receiving Party (i) promptly delivers written notice of the impending disclosure to the disclosing Party such that the disclosing Party will have a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order, (ii) complies with all reasonable directions of the disclosing Party with respect to such disclosure, and (iii) assists the disclosing Party, at the disclosing Party’s expense, in any attempt to limit or prevent the disclosure of the Confidential Information. If there is not sufficient time to provide such notice to the disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall provide such notice to the disclosing Party as soon as practicable and disclose the minimum amount of Confidential Information legally required.

(6)                The Parties’ obligations under this section will survive for three (3) years following termination of this Agreement, except for Confidential Information, which is a trade secret, which shall be kept confidential by the receiving Party perpetually, unless, such Confidential Information loses its trade secret protection other than due to an act or omission of the receiving Party.

b.                   Destruction of Confidential Information. Upon written notice from the disclosing Party or upon the termination, cancellation, or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, the receiving Party shall (a) at its own expense, promptly destroy the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and, upon written request of the disclosing Party, provide the disclosing Party with certification of such destruction by written notice, and (b) cease all further use of the other Party’s Confidential Information, whether in tangible or intangible form, except in either case for (x) any Confidential Information that the receiving Party is required to retain pursuant to any applicable law, (y) copies of executed contractual documents or other materials customarily held by the receiving Party as archival material, and (z) any Confidential Information stored by the receiving Party in such a way that it would be commercially impracticable to delete such Confidential Information. With respect to Confidential Information retained pursuant to the foregoing proviso, the receiving Party’s obligations under this Section 5 will survive the termination of this Agreement until the receiving Party destroys such Confidential Information.

f.                    Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, will be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. The Parties will replace the invalid or unenforceable provision by a provision that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, achieves the purposes intended under the original provision.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fastpath may deliver notices electronically, and any such notice will be deemed delivered upon dispatch.

i.                     Dispute Resolution. Before initiating legal action against the other Party relating to a dispute herein, the Parties agree to work in good faith to resolve disputes and claims arising out of this Agreement. To this end, either Party may request that each Party designate an officer or other management employee with authority to bind such Party to meet to resolve the dispute or claim. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days of the commencement of informal efforts under this Section, either Party may pursue formal legal action. This Section will not apply if: (i) expiration of the applicable time for bringing an action is imminent and will not prohibit a Party from pursuing injunctive or other equitable relief to which it may be entitled; (ii) a Party is bringing an action or claim to enforce the confidentiality obligations or proprietary rights set forth herein; or (iii) a Party is bringing an action or claim to prevent imminent and irreparable harm with no adequate remedy at law from the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section.

j.                     Force Majeure. With the exception of Customer’s obligation to pay amounts due and owing, neither Party shall be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, fire, flood, strikes, war, epidemics, pandemics, shortage of power, telecommunications or internet service interruptions, third Party networks or other acts or causes reasonably beyond the control of that Party. The Party experiencing the force majeure event agrees to give the other Party notice promptly following the occurrence of a force majeure event, and to use diligent efforts to re-commence performance as promptly as commercially practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a force majeure event delays either Party’s performance under this Agreement or any applicable Order Form for more than thirty (30) days, the other Party may terminate, in whole or in part, this Agreement or such Order Form.

k.                   Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to all matters contained in this Agreement, and supersedes all oral or written agreements or understandings between the Parties and/or any third party integration partner on the matters contained in this Agreement. No modification, addition, waiver or cancellation of any provision of this Agreement will be valid except by a writing signed by both Parties. In the event of a conflict among terms in this Agreement, the following is the order of precedence in interpretation: (a) Order Forms; (b) the main text of this Agreement, not including any attachments or exhibits hereto (other than Attachment 1); and (c) the attachments and exhibits hereto. The foregoing order of precedence applies except to the extent explicitly overridden in this Agreement with respect to specifically identified terms.

l.                     No Publicity. Neither Party may use the other Party’s name or Marks or refer to the other Party directly or indirectly in any media release, public announcement, or public disclosure relating to this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party.

m.                 Non-Solicitation. During the Term, neither Customer nor Fastpath shall directly solicit employment of any employee of the other who is directly involved in the performance of such Order Form without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph shall not restrict the right of either Party to solicit or recruit generally, and shall not prohibit either Party from hiring, without prior written consent, the other Party’s employee who answers any advertisement or who otherwise voluntarily applies for hire without having been personally solicited or recruited by the hiring Party.

n.                   Equitable Relief. The Parties acknowledge that each Party may have no adequate remedy at law if there is a breach or threatened breach of Sections 5 (Confidential Information) or 6 (Proprietary Rights). Accordingly, the non-breaching Party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief without requirement of a bond or notice to prevent or remedy such a breach in addition to any legal remedies available to that Party. Neither Party shall object or defend against such action on the basis that monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

o.                   Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be an original, and such counterparts together will constitute one and the same instrument. Execution may be effected by delivery of scanned images of signatures.

p.                   Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and do not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

q.                   Interpretation.

(1)                The words “include”, “includes”, and “including” are deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.
