  1. WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS.

6.1 Right to Do Business.  Each Party warrants that it has the full right and authority to enter into, execute, and perform its obligations under this Agreement and that no pending or threatened claim or litigation known to it would have a material adverse impact on its ability to perform as required by this Agreement.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY.

  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

7.1 Liability Limits. EXCEPT FOR LIABILITY ARISING FROM A BREACH CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS, IN NO EVENT SHALL TOPFLIGHT BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER, FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF INCOME, DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS, WHETHER OR NOT TOPFLIGHT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND WHETHER ANY CLAIM FOR RECOVERY IS BASED ON THEORIES OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY) OR OTHERWISE. 

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL TOPFLIGHT’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ITS EXHIBIT(S), OR CUSTOMER’S ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR ACTION, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OR THEORY OF THE CLAIM OR ACTION.

7.2 Acknowledgment. The Parties acknowledge that the limitations and exclusions contained in this Section 7 and elsewhere in this Agreement have been the subject of negotiation between the Parties and represent the Parties’ agreement based upon the perceived level of risk associated with their respective obligations under this Agreement, and the payments made hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that a.) the provisions hereof that limit liability, disclaim warranties or exclude consequential damages or other damages or remedies shall be severable and independent of any other provisions and shall be enforced as such, regardless of any breach hereunder, and b.) all limitations of liability, disclaimers of warranties, and exclusions of consequential damages or other damages or remedies shall remain fully valid, effective and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, even under circumstances that cause an exclusive remedy to fail of its essential purpose.

  1. CONFIDENTIALITY.

8.1 Confidential Information. By virtue of this Agreement, the Parties may have access to each other’s Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all information or knowledge provided by one Party, including such Party’s agents or contractors, to the other relating to this Agreement and the subject matter hereof, whether in physical or electronic form or pursuant to visits to premises and in any form or medium in which such information may be recorded or kept which: a.) if disclosed in writing, is marked as “confidential” or “proprietary”; b.) if disclosed orally, is summarized in writing by the disclosing Party and sent to the receiving Party within thirty (30) days of the initial disclosure; or c.) that given the nature of the information or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure should reasonably be considered as confidential.  Confidential Information shall include, but not be limited to, trade secrets; documentation, reports and manuals, algorithms, ideas, concepts, methodologies, test data, test results, testing procedures and processes; technologies and software; techniques; business information; financial information; business plans; customer lists; marketing information; sales plans; and/or sales projections.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed the Confidential Information of both Parties and neither Party shall disclose such information except to such Party’s advisors, accountants, attorneys, investors (and prospective investors), and prospective acquirers that have a bona fide need to know such information, provided that any such third-parties shall, before they may access such information, either a.) execute a binding agreement to keep such information confidential or b.) be subject to a professional obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information. 

8.2 Exclusions.  Confidential Information shall not include information that:  a.) is or becomes publicly known through no act or omission of the receiving Party; b.) was in the receiving Party’s lawful possession prior to the disclosure; c.) is rightfully disclosed to the receiving Party by a third-party without restriction on disclosure; or d.) is independently developed by the receiving Party, which independent development can be shown by written evidence.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Topflight has not agreed to and does not agree to treat as confidential any Feedback (as defined below) Customer or Users provide to Topflight, and nothing in this Agreement or in the parties’ dealings arising out of or related to this Agreement will restrict Topflight’s right to use, profit from, disclose, publish, keep secret, or otherwise exploit Feedback without compensating or crediting Customer or the User in question. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, Feedback will not be considered Confidential Information, provided information Customer transmits with Feedback or related to Feedback may be considered Confidential Information. (“Feedback” refers to any suggestion or idea for improving or otherwise modifying any of Topflight’s products or services.)

 

8.3 Use and Nondisclosure.  During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of five (5) years after expiration or termination thereafter, neither Party shall make the other’s Confidential Information available to any third-party or use the other’s Confidential Information for any purposes other than exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement.  Each Party shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that the other’s Confidential Information is not disclosed or distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of this Agreement, but in no event will either Party use less effort to protect the Confidential Information of the other Party than it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like importance.  Each Party will ensure that any agents or subcontractors that are permitted to access any of the other’s Confidential Information are legally bound to comply with confidentiality obligations that are at least as restrictive as the obligations set forth herein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information may be disclosed as required by any governmental agency, provided that before disclosing such information the disclosing Party must provide the non-disclosing Party with sufficient advance notice of the agency’s request for the information to enable the non-disclosing Party to exercise any rights it may have to challenge or limit the agency’s authority to receive such Confidential Information.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary within this section, with respect to Confidential Information that qualifies as “trade secret” under applicable law, the obligations of this Section 8.3 shall survive until such information no longer qualifies as “trade secret”.

 

  1. FEES AND PAYMENT TERMS.

9.1 Fees.  As consideration for the licenses granted herein, Customer shall pay to Topflight the fees described in in the Order Form.  Payment terms shall be as described in the Order Form.

 

  1. TERM AND TERMINATION.

10.1 Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall be as specified in the Order Form.

10.2 Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement should the other Party fail to cure a material breach of its terms within fifteen (15) days of receiving written notice thereof.

10.3 Refund of Fees. Upon any termination due to a material breach of the Agreement by Customer, fees already paid to Topflight shall not be refunded.  Upon any such termination due to a material breach of the Agreement by Topflight, a prorated portion of any prepaid fees shall be returned to Customer.  For the avoidance of doubt, fees expressly delineated as non-refundable shall not be subject to the foregoing.

10.4 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, Customer will cease all use of the Service (including but not limited to the Customer Branded Service), and delete, destroy, or return all copies of the Documentation in its possession or control.

10.5 Survival. The following sections shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason:  2.5, 3 – 9, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 11, and 12.  Further any provisions that must survive to fulfill their essential purpose shall do so.

10.6 Non-Solicit.  During the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year thereafter, Customer agrees not to solicit or induce any customer, employee, or independent contractor of Topflight to terminate, breach, or otherwise reduce any employment, contractual, or other relationship with Topflight as to do so would necessarily misuse the Confidential Information of Topflight.

10.7 Liquidated Damages.  Customer acknowledges that a breach of Section 10.6 above will result in significant damages to Topflight, but by their nature such damages are difficult to ascertain.  Accordingly, upon any such breach, Customer shall pay to Topflight liquidated damages in the amount of $30,000 USD per occurrence, due and payable immediately upon such occurrence.  Liquidated damages are not intended to be a penalty and are solely intended to compensate for damages.

 

  1. INDEMNIFICATION.

11.1 Indemnity. Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Topflight and the Topflight Associates (as defined below) against any “Indemnified Claim,” meaning any third-party claim, suit, or proceeding arising out of or related to Customer’s alleged or actual use of, misuse of, or failure to use the Service, or Customer’s breach of any term or warranty of this Agreement, including without limitation:  a.) claims by Users or by Customer’s employees; b.) claims related to unauthorized disclosure or exposure of personally identifiable information or other private information, including Customer Data; and c.) claims related to infringement or violation of a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or privacy or confidentiality right by written material, images, logos or other Customer Content or Customer Data.  Customer’s obligations set forth in this Section 11.1 include retention and payment of attorneys and payment of court costs, as well as settlement at Customer’s expense and payment of judgments.  Topflight will have the right, not to be exercised unreasonably, to reject any settlement or compromise that requires that it admit wrongdoing or liability or subjects it to any ongoing affirmative obligations.  The “Topflight Associates” are Topflight’s officers, directors, shareholders, parents, subsidiaries, agents, successors, and assigns.

11.2 Exclusions. Customer will have no indemnification obligations under this Agreement as to any claim, suit or proceeding unless: a.) Topflight promptly notifies Customer in writing of such claim, suit or proceeding (except that Topflight ’s failure to provide the Customer with prompt notice of any such claim only shall relieve Customer of its indemnification obligations to the extent that its ability to defend Topflight against such claim is materially prejudiced by such failure); b.) Customer has sole control of its defense and settlement; and c.) Topflight, upon request of Customer, cooperates in all reasonable respects; provided, however, that Topflight may, at its own cost, participate in such claim, suit or proceeding.  No settlement of a claim, investigation, suit, or other proceeding that involves a remedy other than the payment of money will be entered into by Customer without the consent of Topflight, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

 

  1. GENERAL.

12.1 Governing Law.  This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

In the event a dispute arises out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Parties will attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations.  If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, then all outstanding issues may be submitted to mediation.  The parties will mutually select a mediator.   If they fail to do so within 15 days, then either Party may submit a mediation demand to JAMS Orange County for mediation under the JAMS rules.  If mediation is not successful in resolving the entire dispute, any outstanding issues will be submitted to final and binding arbitration with JAMS under the JAMS rules.  The arbitrator’s award will be final, and judgment may be entered upon it by any court having jurisdiction within Orange County, CA.

With respect to any dispute that cannot be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provision above, the Parties agree that the sole and exclusive venue and jurisdiction for any such action shall be in a court of competent jurisdiction in Orange County, California.  The Parties agree that the above referenced courts shall have personal and exclusive jurisdiction over the Parties for any dispute arising out of this Agreement.

12.2 Waiver.  The waiver by either party of any default or breach of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach.  

12.3 Notices.  All notices, including notices of address change, required to be sent hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent to the addresses set forth above or delivered in person.  The notices shall be deemed to have been given upon: (a) the date actually received; or (b) the day indicated as received by the tracking information provided by a reputable courier. Notices may be confirmed by email or fax.

12.4 Severability.  In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is for any reason held to be illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

12.5 Force Majeure.  Except with respect to the obligation to pay fees due, neither party shall be liable hereunder by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder on account of events beyond the reasonable control of such party, which may include without limitation denial-of-service attacks, strikes, shortages, riots, insurrection, fires, flood, storm, explosions, acts of God, war, terrorism, governmental action, labor conditions, earthquakes and material shortages (each a “Force Majeure Event”).  Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the non-performing party will be excused from any further performance of its obligations effected by the Force Majeure Event for so long as the event continues, and such party continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance.

12.6 Relationship Between the Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture or agency relationship between the parties.  Neither party will have the power to bind the other or to incur obligations on the other’s behalf without such other party’s prior written consent. 

12.7 Assignment/Successors.  Customer may not assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber this Agreement, in whole or in part, or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement absent the written consent of Topflight.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties.  Topflight may assign this Agreement to any acquirer of all or substantially all of Topflight’s assets or business or company equity without notice to Customer.

12.8 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement together with its exhibits constitutes the complete and exclusive agreement between the parties concerning its subject matter and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements or understandings, written or oral, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and its exhibits.  Topflight may modify or supplement the terms and conditions in the Agreement consistent with how Topflight treats its other customers and will provide you advanced notice of such modifications via e-mail.  If you object to such modification, to the extent the modification is a material change and degrades your rights under the Agreement, you may terminate the Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Topflight.  

12.9 Non-Exclusive Remedies.  Except as expressly stated herein, the exercise by either party of any remedy under this Agreement will be without prejudice to its other remedies under this Agreement or otherwise.

12.10 Equitable Relief.  Each party acknowledges that a breach by the other party of any confidentiality or proprietary rights provision of this Agreement may cause the non-breaching party irreparable damage, for which the award of damages would not be adequate compensation.  Consequently, the non-breaching party may institute an action to enjoin the breaching party from any and all acts in violation of those provisions, which remedy shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and a party may seek the entry of an injunction enjoining any breach or threatened breach of those provisions, in addition to any other relief to which the non-breaching party may be entitled at law or in equity. 

12.11 Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the signatories and is not intended to benefit any third party except as expressly stated herein.
