You agree to pay Simplexam the fees (“Fees”) set forth by Simplexam. You

under this Agreement shall be paid by You to Simplexam in full without any setoff, recoupment,
counterclaim,
deduction, debit, or withholding for any reason (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as may
be
required
by applicable law). All Fees and other amounts payable by You under this Agreement are exclusive of
taxes and
similar assessments. You are 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 You hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on Simplexam’s income. Simplexam reserves the
right to
change
the Fees from time to time, in its sole discretion. Simplexam will provide advance notice of any
material
increase
of a change in Fees. If the increase in Fees is not acceptable to You, Your sole and exclusive remedy
will be
to
terminate Your use of the Services. By continuing to use the Services after notice of the new Fees, You
acknowledge
and agree to all changes in the Fees. All Fees are non-refundable, except in the sole discretion of
Simplexam.
4. Service Levels and Credits.
-
4.1. Service Levels. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Simplexam will
use commercially
reasonable efforts to make the Services Available at least ninety-nine and ninety-five hundredths
percent
(99.95%)
of the time as measured over the course of each calendar month during the Term (each such calendar
month, a
“Service Period”), excluding unavailability as a result of any of the Exceptions described below
in this
Section 4.1 (the
“Availability Requirement”). “Service Level Failure” means a material failure of the
Services to
meet the
Availability Requirement. “Available” means the Services are available for access and use by You
and Your
Authorized
Users over the Internet. For purposes of calculating the Availability Requirement, the following are
“Exceptions” to
the Availability Requirement, and neither the Services will be considered un-Available nor any Service
Level
Failure
be deemed to occur in connection with any failure to meet the Availability Requirement or impaired
ability of
Yourself or Your Authorized Users to access or use the Services that is due, in whole or in part, to
any: (i)
act or
omission by Yourself or any Authorized User; (ii) delay or failure of performance caused in whole or in
part by
Your
delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of Your obligations under this Agreement; (iii) Your or
Your
Authorized User’s Internet connectivity; (iv) Force Majeure Event; (v) failure, interruption, outage, or
other
problem with any software, hardware, system, network, facility, or other matter not supplied by
Simplexam
pursuant
to this Agreement; (vi) Scheduled Downtime; or (vii) disabling, suspension, or termination of the
Services
pursuant
to Section 10.
-
4.2. Service Level Failures and Remedies. In the event of a Service Level Failure,
Simplexam will issue a credit
to
You equal to the proportion of the Service Level Failure duration to the Service Period multiplied by
the Fees
for
the Services due for the Service Period in which the Service Level Failure occurred (each a “Service
Credit”),
subject to the following: (a) Simplexam has no obligation to issue any Service Credit unless: (i) You
report the
Service Level Failure to Simplexam immediately on becoming aware of it; and (ii) You request such
Service Credit
in
writing within ten (10) days of the Service Level Failure; and in no event will a Service Level Credit
for any
Service Period exceed ten percent (10%) of the total Fees that would be payable for that Service Period
if no
Service Level Failure had occurred. Any Service Credit payable to You under this Agreement will be
issued to You
in
the calendar month following the Service Period in which the Service Level Failure occurred. This
Section 4.2
sets
forth Simplexam’s sole obligation and liability and Your sole remedy for any Service Level Failure.
-
4.3. Scheduled Downtime. Simplexam will use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a)
schedule downtime for
routine
maintenance of the Services between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Pacific; and (b) give You at
least
seventy-two (72) hours prior notice of all scheduled outages of the Services (“Scheduled
Downtime”).
-
4.4. Service Support. The Services include Simplexam’s standard customer support services
(“Support
Services”)
in
accordance with the Simplexam service support schedule then in effect, a current copy of which is

the
Support
Exhibit
from time to time in its sole discretion.
5. Confidential Information. From time to time during the Term, either Party may
disclose or
make available to
the
other Party information about its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade
secrets,
third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information, whether orally or in
written,
electronic, or other form or media/in written or electronic form or media, and whether or not marked,
designated, or
otherwise identified as “confidential” (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Confidential
Information does
not
include information that, at the time of disclosure is: (i) in the public domain; (ii) known to the
receiving
Party
at the time of disclosure; (iii) rightfully obtained by the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from
a
third
party; or (iv) independently developed by the receiving Party. The receiving Party shall not disclose the
disclosing
Party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to the receiving Party’s employees who have
a
need
to know the Confidential Information for the receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its
obligations
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited
extent
required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise
necessary
to
comply with applicable law, provided that the Party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first
have
given written notice to the other Party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii)
to
establish a Party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. 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
Effective
Date 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.

and Simplexam, Simplexam owns all
right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Simplexam IP.

in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (i) no
failure
to
exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement

breach by such Party of
any
of its obligations under Section 5 (Confidential Information) or, in the case of You, Sections 1.2 (Use
Restrictions) or 2.2 (Control and Responsibility), would cause the other Party irreparable harm for
which
monetary
damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened
breach, the
other
Party will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific
performance,
and
any other relief that may be available from any court, 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.
