10. CONFIDENTIALITY

10.1  Nondisclosure. Each Party (each a “Receiving Party”) agrees that it shall use and reproduce the Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) only for purposes of exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement and only to the extent necessary for such purposes; shall restrict disclosure of such Confidential Information to the Receiving Party’s employees, consultants, or advisors who have a need to know; and shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party. The foregoing obligations shall be satisfied by the Receiving Party through the exercise of at least the same degree of care used to restrict disclosure and use of its own information of like importance, but not less than reasonable care. All third parties to whom the Receiving Party discloses Confidential Information must be bound in writing by obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least as protective of such information as this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall not be a breach of this Agreement for the Receiving Party to disclose Confidential Information if compelled to do so under law, in a judicial or other governmental investigation or proceeding, provided that, to the extent permitted by law, the Receiving Party has given the Disclosing Party prior notice and reasonable assistance to permit the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to object to and/or limit the judicial or governmental requirement to disclosure.

 

10.2  Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Party shall be liable for using or disclosing information that such Party can prove: (i) was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed or has entered the public domain through no fault of the Receiving Party; (ii) was known to the Receiving Party, without restriction, at the time of disclosure, as demonstrated by files in existence at the time of disclosure; (iii) is disclosed with the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party; (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without any use of the Confidential Information, as demonstrated by files created at the time of such independent development; (v) becomes known to the Receiving Party, without restriction, from a source other than the Disclosing Party without breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party and otherwise not in violation of the Disclosing Party’s rights; or (vi) is disclosed generally to third parties by the Disclosing Party without restrictions similar to those contained in this Agreement.

 

10.3  Remedies. The Receiving Party agrees that a breach of this Section 10 may result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party that money damages alone may be inadequate to compensate. Therefore, in the event of such a breach, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including but not limited to a temporary restraining order, temporary injunction or permanent injunction without the posting of a bond or other security.

 

 

11. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

12. LIMITATION ON DAMAGES

12.2  MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY. EXCEPT FOR BREACH OF SECTION 3 OR SECTION 10 AND INDEMNIFICATION LIABILITY ARISING UNDER SECTION 13 OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF PAYMENTS MADE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE ONE-MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER ARE BASED IN PART ON THESE LIMITATIONS. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.

 

 

13. INDEMNIFICATION

13.1  Indemnification. Each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold the other Party and its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns harmless from and against all third-party claims, suits, actions, damages, settlements, losses, liabilities, costs (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) and expenses arising from a claim that Mazzaroth (as to Kochava), or the Company Data (as to Company) violates any applicable statute, regulation, or law, or infringes any intellectual property right or other legal right of any third party (a “Claim“). This indemnity does not apply to, and Kochava will have no obligation to the Company for, any infringement or misappropriation claim that arises from (i) modifications to Mazzaroth, the Mazzaroth Platform, or the Licensed Materials by anyone other than Kochava, (ii) modifications to Mazzaroth, the Mazzaroth Platform, or the Licensed Materials based upon specifications furnished by the Company, (iii) Company’s use of Mazzaroth, the Mazzaroth Platform, or the Licensed Materials other than as specified in this Agreement or in the applicable Documentation, (iv) use of Mazzaroth, the Mazzaroth Platform, or the Licensed Materials in conjunction with third-party software, hardware or data other than that approved by Kochava, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. Company shall indemnify, defend and hold Kochava and its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns harmless from and against all third-party claims, suits, actions, damages, settlements, losses, liabilities, costs (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) and expenses to the extent they arise from any Claim based on any of the factors in the foregoing sentence, and shall give Kochava all reasonable information and assistance regarding such claim.

 

13.1  Indemnification Procedure. The indemnified Party shall promptly notify the indemnifying Party in writing of any Claim; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent of any material prejudice directly resulting from such failure. The indemnifying Party shall bear full responsibility for, and shall have the right to solely control, the defense (including any settlements) of any Claim; provided, however, that (i) the indemnifying Party shall keep the indemnified Party informed of, and consult with the indemnified Party in connection with the progress of such litigation or settlement and (ii) the indemnifying Party shall not settle any such Claim in a manner that does not unconditionally release the indemnified Party without the indemnified Party’s written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

 

13.2  Infringing Materials. In the event any portion of Mazzaroth is held or believed by Kochava, or any portion of the Company Data is held or believed by Company, to infringe or misappropriate Intellectual Property Rights of any third party (such portion to be deemed the “Infringing Materials”) in any place where Mazzaroth is used or accessed, then, in addition to any other rights in this Section 13, Kochava (where the Infringing Materials are Mazzaroth) or Company (where the Infringing Materials are the Company Data) shall, at its sole expense and at its option: (i) obtain from such third party the right for the other party to continue to use the Infringing Materials; or (ii) modify the Infringing Materials to avoid and eliminate such infringement or misappropriation, as the case may be; or (iii) upon mutual agreement with the other party, remove and disable the Infringing Materials; or (iv) if none of the foregoing remedies is commercially feasible, terminate this Agreement.

 

13.3  SOLE REMEDY. THIS SECTION 13 SETS FORTH EACH PARTY’S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION, AND EACH PARTY’S SOLE REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

 

 

14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1  Digital Signature Provision. Company represents and warrants that the individual electronically agreeing to the terms of this Agreement is empowered to agree to this Agreement on behalf of Company. Company further agrees that the act of clicking the “AGREE” check-box constitutes an electronic signature as defined by the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and that the Agreement is completely valid, has legal effect, is enforceable, and is binding on, and non-refutable by, Company.

 

14.2  Assignment. Neither Party may assign, sublicense, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kochava may, without the consent of Company, assign this Agreement to an entity merging with, consolidating with, or purchasing substantially all its assets or stock, provided that the assignee shall assume all rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any permitted assignment of this Agreement shall be binding upon and enforceable by and against the Parties’ successors and assigns, provided that any unauthorized assignment shall be null and void and constitute a breach of this Agreement.

 

14.3  Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and any exhibits and amendments thereto, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties and supersede all previous agreements, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended without the prior written consent of both Parties.

 

14.4  Force Majeure. Except for payment obligations, if either Party is prevented from performing or is unable to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement due to causes beyond the reasonable control of the Party invoking this provision, including but not limited to acts of God, acts of civil or military authorities, riots or civil disobedience, wars, strikes or labor disputes (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), such Party’s performance shall be excused and the time for performance shall be extended accordingly provided that the Party immediately takes all reasonably necessary steps to resume full performance.

 

14.5  Governing Law; ADR; Dispute Limitation. To the fullest extent permitted by law, this Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflicts of law principles or provisions. With the exception of a claim relating to Section 8 (Payment; Taxes) the Parties shall submit all disputes, controversies, or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. One arbitrator shall finally determine the arbitration, and judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If a dispute is brought in Spokane, Washington, each party hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts and arbiters located therein. Notwithstanding the forgoing, this Section 14.5 in no way prohibits a party from bringing a dispute in any jurisdiction that has proper authority.  Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Company, Kochava may seek injunctive relief or a temporary restraining order in any court of competent jurisdiction without first resorting to arbitration if Kochava deems in good faith that such a remedy is necessary.  COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.  Any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the use of the Mazzaroth Platform or Software must be filed within one year after the event giving rise to it, or the claim is forever barred.

 

14.6  Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered in person (including by overnight courier) or three days after being mailed by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), and on the date the notice is sent when sent by verified facsimile, in each case to the respective Parties at the address first set forth hereto. Either Party may change its contact information by providing the other Party with notice of the change in accordance with this section. Notices will be deemed in compliance with this Section 14.6, and delivered on the date sent, if sent by e-mail to the following e-mail addresses: for Kochava, legal@kochava.com; for Company, if Company so desires, the e-mail address made known to Kochava by Company in an email from Company to legal@kochava.com specifically referencing this Section 14.6 and identifying the e-mail address Company wishes to be used for notices.

 

14.7  Relationship of Parties. The Parties are independent contractors and will have no right to assume or create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of the other Party. Neither Party shall hold itself out as an agent of the other Party. This Agreement will not be construed to create or imply any partnership, agency, joint venture or formal business entity of any kind.

 

14.8  Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be replaced with the valid provision that most closely reflects the intent of the Parties and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

 

14.9  Modification, Waiver. From time to time, Kochava may modify this Agreement by posting any such modifications at the following URL: https://www.kochava.com/mazzaroth-license-service-agreement/. Notwithstanding Section 14.6, the Parties acknowledge and agree that posting changes at this URL satisfies the requirement, if any, to provide notice to Company.  Company may not modify this Agreement without the prior written consent of Kochava.  Any modification by Company without prior written consent from Kochava is void.  No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement operates as a waiver of any such right, power, or remedy.  A waiver of one provision is not a waiver of any other provision.  A waiver does not operate as a waiver of any future event. No delay or failure by either Party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of such right or remedy. All waivers must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Party waiving its rights. A waiver by any Party of any breach or covenant shall not be construed as a waiver of any succeeding breach of any other covenant.
