INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
5.1. Ownership. Customer acknowledges and agrees that all rights, title and interest in and to the Services, including any and all copyrightable materials or any other content thereof which is or may be subject to any intellectual property rights under any applicable law (e.g., source and object code, applications, designs, animations, interfaces, documentations, derivatives and versions thereof, the “look and feel” of Pathanalytics’s Services, methods, products, algorithms, data, interactive features and objects, tools and methods, inventions, trade secrets, logos, domains, customized URLs, trademarks, service marks, trade names and other proprietary and confidential data and identifiers, whether or not registered and/or capable of being registered (collectively, “Intellectual Property”), and any derivations thereof, the development of which required the expenditure of considerable time and financial resources, are owned by and/or licensed to Pathanalytics. All rights in and to the Services not expressly granted to Customer in this Agreement are reserved by Pathanalytics and its service providers/vendors. Except as expressly set forth herein, no express or implied license or right of any kind is granted to Customer regarding the Services, or any part thereof, including any right to obtain possession of any software, source code, data or other technical material related to the Services.
5.2. Continuous Development. Consistent with Section 3.3 above, Customer acknowledges that Pathanalytics may continually develop, deliver and provide to Customer ongoing innovation to the Services in the form of new features, functionalities, and data offerings. Accordingly, Pathanalytics reserves the right to modify the Services from time to time. Some modifications will be provided to Customer at no additional charge. In the event Pathanalytics adds additional, or modify existing, functionality to a particular Service, Pathanalytics may condition the implementation of such additions or modifications on Customer’s payment of additional fees, provided that Customer may continue to use the version of the Services that Pathanalytics makes generally available (without such additions or modifications) without paying additional fees.
5.3. Feedback. In the event that Customer or its Authorized Users provide any comments or suggestions in connection with the Services, whether written or oral (collectively, the “Feedback”), Pathanalytics, in its sole discretion, shall be entitled to use the Feedback without restriction or compensation, and such Feedback will not be treated as confidential to Customer. Customer hereby grants Pathanalytics, on behalf of itself and its Authorized Users, a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free right and license to incorporate the Feedback into Pathanalytics products and services.
5.4. Aggregated Data. Pathanalytics may collect and derive from Customer Data aggregated data that does not identify Customer, any third-party entity or any natural persons, and use and disclose such aggregated data for Pathanalytics’s legitimate business purposes, which may include but is not limited to Services improvement, service and product development, and/or research and marketing. Additionally, Pathanalytics may collect and review Customer Marketing Content to improve and enhance the Services and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes.
FEES AND EXPENSES; PAYMENTS
6.1. Fees Generally. In consideration for the Services, Customer will pay Pathanalytics the then-current fees set forth in the “Account” section of Customer’s account in the Services unless otherwise set forth in an applicable Service Order (“Fees”). If Customer fails to pay any fees so due within ten (10) days from the applicable due date for payments, Customer’s account shall be put into a suspension. During this time, Customer’s access to the Services may be restricted. If during this suspension period, Customer provides valid payment information and pays the balance due in-full, Services will be reinstated upon the processing of the new payment information. In addition, Customer’s failure to fully pay any fees within ten (10) days after the applicable due date will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, justifying Pathanalytics’s suspension of its performance of the Services and/or termination of this Agreement. Customer is responsible for any fees associated with reinstatement of Services. Any such suspension or termination would not relieve Customer from paying past due fees plus any applicable interest as measured by interest rates set by the U.S. Department of Trearsury. Pathanalytics attempts to automatically charge the credit card on file for any past due invoice for current, suspended and canceled accounts. Accounts suspended and reactivated must pay all past due and current amounts. Accounts past due over thirty (30) days may not be reactivated unless agreed to by Pathanalytics in its sole discretion. Otherwise, Customer must sign up for new Services and pay all fees, including any setup fees, in full. If a payment is returned or rejected by Pathanalytics’s bank, or incurs additional costs for Pathanalytics (e.g., bank fees) for any reason, Customer may be charged a service fee of $100.00 and be required to reimburse all such fees and costs incurred by Pathanalytics, and Customer shall be immediately deemed to be in default of this Agreement. Accounts and all amounts in default are subject to a late payment charge (as described in Section 6.3 below), or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is greater, until fully paid.
6.2. Fee Increases. Pathanalytics will provide Customer fourteen (14) days advance notice for any increase in fees. Any increases to the Fees shall apply at the beginning of the Customer’s following Term. Customer’s continued use of the Services after a Fee increase will constitute Customer’s agreement to the increase in Fees.
6.3. Billing, Invoicing, and Payment Terms. Pathanalytics will charge Customer the Fees for the Services in advance for each billing period on or after the first day of such billing period. All Fees for Services are due and payable in US Dollars and are non-refundable. If Customer is paying by credit card or eCheck, (a) Customer hereby irrevocably authorizes Pathanalytics to charge the credit card or other payment method provided for any such amounts when due, (b) amounts due will be automatically charged, (c) if Customer’s credit card is declined, Pathanalytics will attempt to reach out to Customer for a new payment method, and (d) if Customer’s credit card expires, Customer hereby gives Pathanalytics permission to submit the credit card charge with a later expiration date. If Pathanalytics fails to resolve an issue with Customer resulting from a credit card decline or expiration, Pathanalytics may terminate the account due to non-payment. Customer agrees to notify Pathanalytics of all billing disputes within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the billing statement or invoice, and disputes not made within that time are waived. Late payments, including those resulting from credit card declines, will accrue interest at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is greater. If Pathanalytics must initiate a collections process to recover fees due and payable hereunder, then Pathanalytics shall be entitled to recover from Customer all costs associated with such collections efforts, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees.
6.4. Taxes. The Fees are exclusive of all applicable sales, use, value-added and other taxes, and all applicable duties, tariffs, assessments, export and import fees, or other similar charges, and Customer will be responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than taxes based on Pathanalytics’s income), fees, duties, and charges and any related penalties and interest, arising from the payment of the Fees and the delivery of the Services. To the extent that Pathanalytics charges any of the aforementioned taxes, they are calculated using the tax rates that apply based on the billing address provided by Customer. Such amounts are in addition to the Fees and will be billed to Customer’s authorized payment method. If Customer is exempt from payment of any such taxes, Customer must provide Pathanalytics with evidence of exemption. If Customer is not charged any of the aforementioned taxes by Pathanalytics, Customer is responsible for determining if taxes are payable, and if so, self- remitting such taxes to the appropriate tax authorities in Customer’s jurisdiction. Customer will make all payments of Fees to Pathanalytics free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes imposed on payments of fees to KPathanalyticsendall will be Customer’s sole responsibility, and Customer will provide Pathanalytics with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as Pathanalytics may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid. Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold Pathanalytics harmless in connection with any proceedings brought by any taxing authorities in connection with this Agreement. If Pathanalytics is required to pay any such taxes directly to any taxing authorities on behalf of Customer, Customer agress to, upon receipt of Pathanalytics’s invoice, promptly reimburse Pathanalytics for any such taxes paid by Pathanalytics. Any taxes not reimbursed by Customer will be treated as Customer’s failure to pay fees under Section 6.1.
6.5. Expenses. If pre-approved by Customer in a Service Order, Customer shall reimburse Pathanalytics for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including travel and living) incurred in performing its obligations for specific Services under such Service Order. All costs and expenses incurred by Customer in connection with this Agreement are the sole responsibility of Customer.

7.4. Customer Communications. Customer shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations applicable to Customer’s use of the Services, including Customer Communications and Customer Marketing Content, which laws and regulations shall include but not be limited to (a) any applicable laws that govern online promotions, offers, gift cards, coupons, and/or gift certificates, data privacy and protection, intellectual property, the sending of electronic marketing messages and the sending of SMS and/or MMS text messages and (b) laws and regulations that apply to commerce, in each jurisdiction in which Customer will be sending marketing communications to a resident of the jurisdiction.

CONFIDENTIALITY
10.1. Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, each party (the “Disclosing Party”) may provide the other party (the “Receiving Party”) with certain information regarding the Disclosing Party’s business, technology, products, or services, or other confidential or proprietary information (collectively, “Confidential Information”) in whatever form (written, oral or visual) that is furnished or made available to the Receiving Party by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party that (a) if in tangible form, the Disclosing Party has labeled in writing as proprietary or confidential, (b) if in oral or visual form, the Disclosing Party has identified as proprietary or confidential at the time of disclosure, or (c) is of a character that is commonly and reasonably regarded as confidential and/or proprietary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Services, Documentation, and all enhancements and improvements thereto, will be considered Confidential Information of Pathanalytics.
10.2. Protection of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees that it will not use or disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, except for exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information to its employees and contractors who have a need to know, who are subject to confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than those set forth herein and who have been informed of the confidential nature of such information. In addition, the Receiving Party will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner that it protects its own proprietary information of a similar nature, but in no event with less than reasonable care. At the Disclosing Party’s request or upon termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party will return to the Disclosing Party or destroy (or permanently erase in the case of electronic files) all copies of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party does not have a continuing right to use under this Agreement, and, upon request, the Receiving Party shall provide to the Disclosing Party written notice certifying compliance with this sentence, unless prohibited by applicable law.

In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is necessary for the Receiving Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement or is required by law or by the order of a court or similar judicial or administrative body, provided that the Receiving Party promptly (to the extent legally permitted) notifies the Disclosing Party in writing of such required disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the Disclosing Party if the Disclosing Party seeks an appropriate protective order.
10.4. Remedies. Any breach or threatened or attempted breach of this Section 10 may result in immediate, irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the Receiving Party has breached (or attempted or threatened to breach) any of the obligations set forth in this Section 10, the Receiving Party agrees that, without any additional findings of irreparable injury or other conditions to injunctive relief, it will not oppose the entry of an appropriate order compelling its performance and restraining it from any further breaches (or attempted or threatened breaches).

Pathanalytics will defend at its expense any suit brought against Customer, and will pay any settlement Pathanalytics makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim by any third party alleging that the Services infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property Rights in the U.S., Canada, European Union member countries or the United Kingdom. If any portion of the Services becomes, or in Pathanalytics’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Pathanalytics may, at Pathanalytics’s option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Service; (b) replace or modify the Services to be non-infringing without materially impairing the functionality of the Services; or (c) terminate this Agreement and refund to Customer the pro-rated portion of any prepaid fees attributable to any unused Services, and upon such termination, Customer will immediately cease all use of the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pathanalytics shall have no obligation under this Section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon (v) the Customer Data (w) any use of the Services not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation; (x) any use of the Services in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Pathanalytics; (y) any modification of the Services by any person other than Pathanalytics; (z) modification of the Services based upon specifications furnished by Customer (any of the foregoing circumstances under clauses (v) through (z) will be collectively referred to as a “Customer Indemnity Responsibility”). This Section 11.1 states the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer and the entire liability of Pathanalytics, or any of the officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors or representatives of the foregoing, for third party claims and actions described in this Section 11.1.
11.2. By Customer. Customer will indemnify, defend and hold Pathanalytics, its officers, directors, affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors, agents and employees (each a “Pathanalytics Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liability, costs and expenses awarded by a court or agreed upon in settlement, as well as all reasonable and related attorneys’ fees and court costs arising out of or relating to: (a) a Customer Indemnity Responsibility; (b) Customer’s breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty or obligation under the Agreement, or any violation of law; or (c) the use, transmission, access, disclosure, or other processing of Customer Data.
11.3. Procedure. The indemnifying party’s obligations as set forth above are expressly conditioned upon each of the foregoing: (a) the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any threatened or actual claim or suit; (b) the indemnifying party shall have sole control of the defense or settlement of any claim or suit; and (c) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party to facilitate the settlement or defense of any claim or suit.
TERM AND TERMINATION

Unless otherwise specified on an applicable Service Order, this Agreement commences on Customer’s registration for an account, and shall continue in effect for thirty (30) days (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, and unless otherwise specified in a Service Order, this Agreement and each applicable Service Order shall automatically renew for successive thirty (30) day terms (each a “Renewal Term”), unless either party provides notice to the other party of its intention not to renew prior to expiration of the Initial Term or the then-current Renewal Term. Customer must provide at least five (5) days prior notice and Pathanalytics must provide at least fifteen (15) days prior notice.

In addition, Pathanalytics may terminate this Agreement upon notice to Customer if (a) Customer becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, or liquidation for the benefit of creditors; (b) in the event of non-payment in accordance with Section 6; or (c) Customer is on a free-tiered account and such account is inactive for a period of twelve (12) months or more. Upon termination, Customer shall not be entitled to any refund of any Fees previously paid to Pathanalytics for Services except in the event Pathanalytics terminates without cause or Customer terminates due to Pathanalytics’s uncured material breach, in which case Customer may be entitled to a pro- rata refund of any pre-paid and unused Fees advanced to Pathanalytics.
