2.4 Ownership by Licensee; License Grant by Licensee.

Except to the extent licenses are expressly granted hereunder, Licensee retains all right, title and interest in and to all intellectual property rights (including patent, trademark, trade secret rights, inventions, copyrights, know-how and trade secrets) in and to: (i) its products and services; (ii) the Licensee Data; (iii) any Licensee-provided design assets; and (iv) data collected from app users. Licensee represents and warrants that Licensee has all rights that are necessary to grant Hatch Apps the licensed rights in Licensee Data under this Agreement. Licensee also represents and warrants that neither Licensee Data, nor the inclusion of Licensee Data in the Services, will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.

Licensee hereby grants to Hatch Apps a non-exclusive, transferable and sublicensable (solely as set forth herein), worldwide, royalty-free license to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon, distribute, publicly display and perform Licensee Data as reasonably required to operate and provide the Services.

In addition, and despite anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Hatch Apps shall have the right to collect and analyze Licensee Data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Services and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Licensee’s use of the Services and data derived therefrom), and Hatch Apps will be free (during and after the term hereof) to (i) use such information and data for the purpose of analytics and to improve and enhance the Services and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with the Services and other Hatch Apps offerings, and (ii) disclose such data solely in aggregate or other de-identified form in connection with its business.

3. Fees; Payments.

3.1 Fees; Limitation on Refunds. Licensee will pay Hatch Apps the then-applicable fees for the Services as set forth in Exhibit A (the “Fees”). Except in the case of material breach of this Agreement by Hatch Apps or as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all payments accrued or made under this Agreement are non-cancelable and nonrefundable.

3.2 Invoicing, Payment and Receipts. Unless otherwise provided for in an applicable Order, Hatch Apps will invoice Licensee annually in advance. Payment is due within thirty (30) days of Licensee’s receipt of an undisputed invoice. In the case of non-payment, Hatch Apps may, at its sole discretion: (i) suspend Licensee access to the Services; (ii) terminate this Agreement; or, (iii) continue to provide the Services, for a period solely determined by the Hatch Apps, in anticipation of full and prompt payment by Licensee. Any amount which is unpaid when due shall be subject to interest equal to the lower of 1.5% per month or the highest applicable legal rate. Hatch Apps shall be entitled to reimbursement for any costs associated with the collection of any past-due balance.

3.3 Usage Exceeding Ordered Services. If Licensee’s use of the Services exceeds the service capacity or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees (per the terms of this Agreement), Licensee shall be billed for such usage and Licensee agrees to pay the additional fees in the manner provided herein. Hatch Apps reserves the right to change the Fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges and Fees at the end of the Initial Service Term or then-current Renewal Term, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice to Licensee (which may be sent by email). If Licensee believes that Hatch Apps has billed Licensee incorrectly, Licensee must contact Hatch Apps no later than thirty (30) days after the closing date on the first billing statement in which the error or problem appeared, in order to receive an adjustment or credit. Inquiries should be directed to Hatch Apps’ Licensee support department.

3.4 Delays; Change of Scope. If Licensee requests a change to any Services that represents a material change, extension of, and/or increase in the volume of Services, Hatch Apps shall notify Licensee of any additional costs associated with such changes and Licensee shall have two (2) business days to approve of such costs in writing (email to suffice). Hatch Apps shall not be required to continue deployment without such approval and, if requested by Hatch Apps, an amendment, revised insertion order, or other form of written agreement detailing such changes, executed by Licensee (or Agency on behalf of Licensee) and Hatch Apps. In the event Licensee does not approve of such costs, then each parties’ respective rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement will remain unmodified.

3.5 Change of Scope. Furthermore, following meaningful consultation with Licensee, Hatch Apps shall establish the deployment schedule for the Services (“Deployment Schedule”) as more fully described in Exhibit C, which shall include due dates for Licensee feedback and approval (“Feedback Date(s)”), a launch date for each item of the Services (each, a “Launch Date”), and the date that is two (2) weeks following each Launch Date (“Extension Date”). If Licensee feedback and/or approval fails to comply with the Production Schedule such that the launch of one (1) or more items of the Services does not launch on or before the Extension Date is delayed, Hatch Apps shall notify Licensee in writing (email to suffice) of such delay, and Hatch Apps shall have the right to charge Licensee: (a) five percent (5%) of the total line item(s) in the Agreement (“Extension Fee”) if any item of the Services has not launched on or before the respective Extension Date; and (b) an additional Extension Fee (i.e. an additional five percent (5%) of the original total custom content line item(s) in the Agreement) for each week that launch of such delayed Services is delayed beyond the respective Extension Date. The parties agree to promptly execute a revised Order to reflect the Extension Fee(s) incurred by Licensee hereunder. Within thirty (30) days following Hatch Apps’s submission of a written request, Licensee shall either (at Licensee’s election) (A) pay Hatch Apps the Extension Fee(s) incurred by Licensee, or (B) enter into a non-cancellable Amended order (or revised Order) with Hatch Apps for an amount equal to no less than the amount of the Extension Fee(s) incurred by Licensee hereunder (or, in the event of a revised insertion order, the original Order amount in addition to the Extension Fee(s) incurred by Licensee hereunder). Licensee may elect to change the Feedback Date(s) (which shall be communicated to Hatch Apps in writing, email to suffice). Licensee shall not be permitted to change any Launch Date or Extension Date, except in the event that Hatch Apps is delayed (according to the Deployment Schedule) in delivering to Licensee/Agency one (1) or more items of Services for Licensee feedback and/or approval, and such delay by Hatch Apps was not caused by Licensee’s delay in providing feedback and/or approvals in a previous round for the same item of the Services. Any change to a Launch Date and/or Extension Date, as permitted herein, shall only extend such Launch Date and/or Extension Date for the length of such delay by Hatch Apps.

3.6 Taxes. All stated prices are exclusive of any taxes, fees, and duties or other amounts, however designated, and including without limitation value added and withholding taxes that are levied or based upon such charges, or upon this Agreement. Any taxes related to the Services or support services purchased or licensed pursuant to this Agreement including, but not limited to, withholding taxes, will be paid by Licensee, or Licensee will present an exemption certificate acceptable to the taxing authorities. Licensee will not be liable for taxes imposed on the Hatch Apps based on the Hatch Apps’ income.

4. Warranty and Disclaimer.

4.1 Hatch Apps’ Warranty. Hatch Apps will perform the Services in a professional and workmanlike manner and in accordance with this Agreement. Despite the foregoing, the Services may be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance or for unscheduled emergency maintenance, either by Hatch Apps or by third-Party providers, or because of other causes beyond Hatch Apps’ reasonable control, but Hatch Apps shall use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice in writing or by e-mail of any scheduled service disruption.

4.2 Disclaimer of Warranties That May Be Implied Under Certain Laws. EXCEPT AS MAY OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, HATCH APPS MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS WITH RESPECT TO ANY SERVICES, DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER TANGIBLE OR INTANGIBLE MATERIALS PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER EXPRESS AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. EXCEPT AS MAY BE OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING IN SECTION 8.3), HATCH APPS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR BE ERROR FREE OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL SUCCEED IN RESOLVING ANY PROBLEM.

5. Limitation of Liability.

5.1 Limitation on Indirect Damages. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS BASED UPON EITHER PARTY’S BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION 5.2, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCURRED BY THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR BASED ON A WARRANTY, EVEN IF SUCH OTHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

5.2 Prohibition on Certain Damages. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS BASED UPON LICENSEE’S BREACH OF ITS LICENSED RIGHTS HEREUNDER, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING THE LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, OR COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES INCURRED BY THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR BASED ON A WARRANTY, EVEN IF SUCH OTHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. HATCH APPS SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACTIONS OR INACTIONS OF ANY THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING THIRD PARTY HOSTING COMPANIES SUCH AS AMAZON, GOOGLE, MICROSOFT AND THE LIKE.

5.3 Maximum Liability. HATCH APPS’ LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY LICENSEE TO THE HATCH APPS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING ANY CLAIM.

6. Indemnification by Licensee.

6.1 Licensee will defend and indemnify Hatch Apps from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, demands, suits, causes of action, judgments, costs or expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to (1) a breach of this Agreement by Licensee or any Authorized User; (2) the intellectual property rights in any Licensee Data; (3) any loss, misuse, or disclosure of Licensee Data not the result of Hatch Apps’ misconduct or gross negligence; and (4) any other claim relating to any classified or personally identifiable information within Licensee Data, where such personally identifiable information (A) identifies or can be used to identify an individual, such as first and last name, social security number or other government issued number or identifier, date of birth, home or other physical address, e-mail address or other online contact information, telephone number, biometric data, mother’s maiden name, or other personally identifiable information; or (B) includes any “non-public personal information” as that term is defined in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act found at 15 U.S.C. Subchapter 1, §6809(4).

7. Confidentiality.

7.1 Confidentiality. Each of the Parties hereto undertakes to the other to keep confidential all Confidential Information concerning the business and affairs of the other that it shall have obtained or received as a result of the discussions leading up to or the entering into or performance of this Agreement. To qualify as Confidential Information, the disclosing Party must conspicuously mark the Confidential Information in tangible form as “confidential,” “proprietary” or similar words generally understood to communicate the confidential nature of the information. Where it is not possible to use such marking, or when the information is disclosed orally or visually, the disclosing Party must state at the time of disclosure that the information is Confidential Information, and when requested by the receiving Party, summarize in writing the Confidential Information within a reasonable time of such request, describing the disclosure in sufficient detail. Despite the foregoing, non-public information regarding features, functionality and performance of the Service, as well as Software, Application features, designs, templates, code base, or Dashboard capabilities, Licensee Data, and each Party’s product road maps, product development plans, pricing, business plans, customer lists, business and financial information shall be deemed to be Confidential Information, in each case whether or not marked or otherwise designated as confidential or proprietary.

7.2 Exceptions. Despite all of the foregoing, Confidential Information will not include any information which: (a) is already lawfully in the receiving Party’s possession (unless received pursuant to a nondisclosure agreement); (b) is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the receiving Party; (c) is disclosed to the receiving Party by a third Party who may transfer or disclose such information without restriction; (d) is required to be disclosed by the receiving Party as a matter of law (provided that the receiving Party will use all reasonable efforts to provide the disclosing Party with prior notice of such disclosure and to obtain a protective order therefor); (e) is disclosed by the receiving Party with the disclosing Party’s approval; or (f) is independently developed by the receiving Party without any use of Confidential Information.

7.3 Injunctive Relief. Because of the unique and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information, it is understood and agreed that the disclosing Party’s remedies at law for a breach by the receiving Party of its obligations hereunder may be inadequate and that the disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief (including without limitation provisional and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance).

Term and Termination.

Term. This Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue in force for the Initial Service Term set forth on Exhibit A. Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew for additional one-year periods (each a “Renewal Term”) unless validly terminated as set forth herein. The Initial Term and all Renewal Terms collectively shall be referred to as the “Term”.

Termination.

(a) Termination for Cause. This Agreement and any subscription may be terminated by either Party upon notice if the other Party (i) breaches any material term or condition of this Agreement and fails to remedy the breach within thirty (30) days after being given notice thereof, or (ii) ceases to function as a going concern or to conduct operations in the normal course of business, or (iii) has a petition filed by or against it under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws which petition has not been dismissed or set aside within sixty (60) days of filing. Hatch Apps may terminate this Agreement at any time upon its reasonable determination that Licensee’s Use of the Services violates any applicable law or regulation.

(b) Termination for Convenience. Either Party may terminate this Agreement or any subscription for any reason upon written notice to the other Party (i) in the case of notice by Licensee given not less than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current Term of the Agreement or the subscription or (ii) in the case of notice by Hatch Apps, at any time. No termination for convenience by Licensee, however, shall entitle Licensee to any refund of fees paid, or waiver of fees owed but unpaid, at the time of termination.

Effect of Termination. In the event of a termination, Hatch Apps may remove Licensee’s Application from Apple’s App Store, the Google Play Store, and the web, and discontinue the Subscription Services. Hatch Apps agrees to transfer Licensee Data and any data collected from app users to the Licensee within forty-five (45) days in exchange for payment in full of the License Fees and Activation Fees for the Initial Service Term and a one-time conversion fee of $10,000. In the event of termination by Licensee for material, uncured breach of this Agreement by Hatch Apps, Hatch Apps shall refund to Licensee (on a pro rata basis based on the number of months left in any then-current Term) any License Fees paid for any portion of a Term occurring after the effective date of any such termination. Further, upon any termination or if in the case of Hatch Apps acquisition or merger, or if Hatch Apps is, unable to pay its debts or becomes insolvent, or is subject to an order or a resolution for its liquidation, administration, winding-up or dissolution (otherwise than for the purposes of a solvent amalgamation or reconstruction), or has an administrative or other receiver, manager, trustee, liquidator, administrator or similar officer appointed over all or any substantial part of its assets, or enters into or proposes any composition or arrangement with its creditors generally, or is subject to any analogous event or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction, Hatch Apps will make all those items as listed in 2.4(a) and Licensee’s instance of its source code available to the Customer for electronic retrieval (in a manner reasonable to both parties) for a period of ninety (90) days, after which time Hatch Apps no obligation to provide nor store any Customer Data.

Survival of Certain Provisions. Those provisions, which by their nature survive termination, shall continue after termination or expiration of this Agreement. Those provisions include, but are not necessarily limited to: Sections 2, 3, 4.2, 5, 6, 7 (for a period of 2 years after termination), 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 9 and 13, all associated definitions, all accrued rights to payment and any terms and conditions of an exhibit applicable to a Subscription type which, by their nature, reasonably should survive termination.

Other Related Rights. Termination is not an exclusive remedy for breach of this Agreement by either Party. All other remedies will be available to the non-breaching Party whether or not the non-breaching Party terminates this Agreement for breach by the other Party.

Import and Export Regulations. The Services may be subject to U.S. export controls, specifically the Export Administration Regulations. Both Parties shall comply with all relevant import and export regulations, including those adopted by the Bureau of Industry and Security of the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Force Majeure. Neither Party hereto shall be liable for any breach of its obligations hereunder resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control including but not limited to fires, floods, earthquakes, pandemic or epidemic illness, strikes (of its own or other employees), insurrection or riots, embargoes, requirements or regulations of any civil or military authority.

Publicity. Either Party to this Agreement may publicize the existence of the business relationship established by this Agreement in connection with its products, promotions, or publications. Licensee grants Hatch Apps permission to use Licensee’s name and logo(s) in connection with promotion of Hatch Apps’ products and services. All representations of Licensee’s logo shall be exact copies of those used by Licensee in design, color and other details. Except as expressly set forth in this Section, nothing in this Agreement gives either Party any right, title or interest in the other Party’s logos, trademarks, service marks or trade names. Despite anything to the contrary, neither Party may disclose the specific terms of this Agreement, except as required by applicable law.

Miscellaneous.

The waiver by either Party of a breach or default of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Party shall not be construed as a waiver of any succeeding breach of the same or other provisions nor shall any delay or omission on the part of either Party to exercise or avail itself of any right power or privilege that it has or may have hereunder. All notices must be in writing and in the English language and will be deemed given only when sent by mail (return receipt requested), hand-delivered, sent by documented overnight delivery service to the Party to whom the notice is directed at its address indicated in the signature box to this Agreement (or such other address as to which the other Party has been notified), or sent by email to the email address as may be provided by one Party to the other from time to time. Despite any of the foregoing, notices of updates to license terms, terms of use, privacy terms or other terms related to Hatch Apps’ website and any product or service accessed via Hatch Apps’ website may be delivered by Hatch Apps posting such updates on its website or on its Dashboard. If any provision of this Agreement shall be found by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement and all provisions not affected by such invalidity or unenforceability shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure for the benefit of the successors in title of the Parties hereto. Licensee shall not assign, transfer or sublicense this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Hatch Apps, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld in the case of the merger, acquisition or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Licensee. Headings to paragraphs or sections in this Agreement are for the purpose of information and identification only and shall not be construed as forming part of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the District of Columbia without regard to the conflict of law provisions thereof. The sole venue for all disputes relating to this Agreement shall be in the District of Columbia, USA. This Agreement does not, and is not intended to, confer any benefit on, nor create any right exercisable or enforceable by, any third Party. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees and other costs incurred in the action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing Party may be entitled. The Parties agree that each is an independent contractor and neither Party has the right or authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of the other Party. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be modified, replaced or rescinded only in writing, and signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party. THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ALL ATTACHMENTS, SCHEDULES, EXHIBITS AND ALL APPLICABLE LICENSE AGREEMENTS, CONSTITUTES THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE PARTIES, AND SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AND CONTEMPORANEOUS SALES PROPOSALS, NEGOTIATIONS AND AGREEMENTS, ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS INCLUDED AS PART OF ORDERS AND ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR COMMUNICATIONS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED ON, REFERENCED BY OR INCORPORATED INTO LICENSEE’S ORDER ARE EXPRESSLY REJECTED AND SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED AN AMENDMENT TO THIS AGREEMENT.
