    2. Customer Requirements. Customer is responsible at its sole cost for procuring and maintaining the ability to connect to the GuestXM Platform or other Services.
    3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and in consideration of the payment of Fees as set forth on the applicable Order Form, GuestXM hereby grants to Customer and its Users, solely during the Subscription Term of the applicable Order Form, a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable and non-sublicensable right and license to use the Services refenced in such Order Form solely for Customer’s internal business evaluation and planning purposes, unless otherwise stated in an applicable Order Form. This license is restricted to use by Customer and its Users, and is subject to Usage Limits, if applicable.
    4. Third-Party Applications. GuestXM or third-party providers may offer Third Party Applications for use in connection with the Services. Except as expressly set forth in an Order Form, GuestXM is not responsible for and does not warrant any such Third-Party Applications.
  3. FEES; PAYMENT TERMS
    1. Fees. Customer shall pay GuestXM the fees specified in an Order Form, a SOW, or other written agreement between the Parties, in addition to reasonable expenses incurred in performing the Services (“Fees”). Fees are due when invoiced and are payable within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the invoice. Customer agrees to pay interest at 1.5% per month (or, if lower, the maximum legal rate) from the date originally due until payment is received by GuestXM on all amounts thereafter. Customer’s obligation to pay Fees is non-cancellable and non-refundable. The rates in the applicable Order Form are valid for the Subscription Term set forth in the Order Form and thereafter shall be subject to an annual increase of five percent (5%) (subject to Customer retaining the same Services package, capacity, and functionality levels as specified on the applicable Order Form).
    2. Suspension of Services. If any payment due under this Agreement is thirty (30) or more days overdue, GuestXM may, without limiting its other rights and remedies, accelerate the unpaid fee obligations so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend all or part of the Services until such amounts are paid in full. GuestXM will provide at least ten (10) days’ prior notice that the account is overdue before suspending Services. GuestXM will not exercise its rights under Section 3 above if Customer is disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute.
    3. Taxes. Irrespective of whether taxes are reflected on the Order Form or applicable invoice for Services, Customer shall be responsible for the payment of all sales, use goods and services, value-added, and similar taxes due with respect to the Services, excluding for avoidance of doubt taxes on GuestXM’s income.
  4. CONFIDENTIALITY
    1. Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall mean the terms set forth in this Agreement and any Order Form, any of the Services, Customer Data and any other information disclosed by a Party (the “Disclosing Party”) that is conspicuously marked “confidential” or in a similar manner sufficient to put the other Party receiving the information (the “Receiving Party”) on notice of the claim of confidentiality or would, under the circumstances, otherwise appear to a reasonable person to be confidential or proprietary. Receiving Party shall hold in confidence, and shall not disclose (or permit or suffer its personnel or Users to disclose) any Confidential Information to any person or entity except to a director, officer, employee, accountants legal advisor or consultant (collectively “Representatives”) of the Receiving Party who has a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of such Representative’s duties for the Receiving Party, and who is bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective than contained in this Agreement. The Receiving Party and its Representatives shall use such Confidential Information only in connection with this Agreement and for the purpose for which it was disclosed. Each Party is responsible for the actions of its Representatives and shall protect the other Party’s Confidential Information using the same degree of care as it protects its own highly confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. A Receiving Party shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party upon becoming aware of a breach or threatened breach hereunder and shall cooperate with any reasonable request of the Disclosing Party in enforcing its rights.
    2. Exclusions. The following will not be considered Confidential Information: (a) information that was already known to the Receiving Party, as shown through contemporaneous documentary evidence, without the obligation of confidentiality prior to disclosure of it to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party; (b) information that is or hereafter becomes generally available to and known to the public through no fault of the Receiving Party; (c) information that is independently developed by the Receiving Party without any access to or use of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, as shown through contemporaneous documentary evidence; and (d) information that is disclosed with the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party.
    3. Legal Process; Injunctive Relief. In the event disclosure of Confidential Information is required by legal process, the Receiving Party shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party of said legal process so that the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order to limit such disclosure, and the Receiving Party shall ensure that any such disclosure is limited to the information being requested. Both Parties acknowledge that any use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement may cause the Disclosing Party irreparable and immediate damage for which remedies other than injunctive relief may be inadequate. Therefore, both Parties agree that, in addition to any other remedy to which the Disclosing Party may be entitled hereunder, at law or equity, the Disclosing Party may be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) to restrain such use in addition to other appropriate remedies available under applicable law.
    4. Publicity. Except as may be required by law, or as otherwise permitted or expressly contemplated herein, no Party or its respective Affiliates or Representatives shall disclose to any third party the existence of this Agreement or the subject matter or terms hereof without the prior consent of the other Party hereto; provided, however, that Parties shall be permitted to (a) disclose such information to their Representatives to the extent such recipients are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of such information: (b) disclose and use such information in connection with enforcing their rights and fulfilling their obligations under this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection with this Agreement; and (c) utilize the other Party’s name and logo for advertising and reporting purposes during the term of this Agreement subject to the prior written approval of the other Party. No press release or public announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein shall be issued or made by any Party without the approval of the other Party. Customer shall not publicly post any analysis or reviews of the Services without Black Box’s prior written approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Black Box may disclose Confidential Information, under appropriate nondisclosure terms, to auditors, accounting, financial and legal advisers, or to an existing or potential investor, acquiring company, bank, or other financial institution in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, loan, or similar corporate transaction.

  9. TERM
    1. Term. This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue in effect so long as an Order Form is in effect. The initial subscription term of the Services procured by Customer shall be as set forth in the applicable Order Form (“Subscription Term”). Except as otherwise specified in an Order Form, the Subscription Term shall automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms (or for the period of time defined in the Order Form) unless either Party gives the other notice of non-renewal at last 30 days prior to the end of the relevant Subscription Term.
    2. Termination.
      1. For Breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may terminate this Agreement or any Order Form: (A) immediately in the event of a material breach of this Agreement or any such Order Form by the other Party that is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof from the other Party, or (ii) immediately (A) if the other Party is the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, that is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of filing, or (B) Customer breaches or otherwise violates an Excluded Claim.

      3. Other. This Agreement and an Order Form hereunder may also be terminated immediately by Black Box if Black Box is terminating such Service to all Customers then subscribing to such Service (in which case Customer shall be entitled to a refund of any prepaid, unused Fees paid hereunder). Termination of an Order Form shall not be deemed a termination of this Agreement. Termination of this Agreement shall, however, terminate all outstanding Order Forms.
    3. Effect of Termination. Upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement or any applicable Order Form, Black Box shall no longer provide the applicable Services to Customer, Customer shall cease and cause its Users to cease using the Services and, to the extent that any Fees hereunder had accrued prior to the termination date, Customer shall pay such Fees to Black Box immediately upon termination. Customer agrees that following termination of Customer’s account and/or use of the Services, Black Box may immediately deactivate and delete Customer’s account. All rights and obligations of the Parties which by their nature are reasonably intended to survive such termination or expiration will survive termination or expiration of this Agreement and each Order Form.
    4. Return of Confidential Information. Black Box shall return or destroy all Confidential Information in Black Box’s possession or control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) Black Box may retain one (1) copy of the Confidential Information as required under law, rule, regulation or Black Box’s established internal compliance policy or procedure, provided that any materials so retained will remain subject to the obligations of confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use provisions herein, and (ii) Black Box will not be required to destroy any electronic files containing Confidential Information that have been created pursuant to its established automatic archiving or backup procedures.

The Parties shall co-operate to take such reasonable commercial steps to assist with regard to the mitigation and remediation of any such unauthorized exposure, if necessary.
    2. Privacy. Unless otherwise stated herein or in an Order Form, the Parties agree as follows: (a) the Services performed under this Agreement will not require Black Box’s access or use of any personally identifiable information (“PII“) of Customer including, without limitation (i) financial information such as credit or debit card numbers, and government identification information such as passport or Social Security numbers, and/or (ii) any biometric or protected health information (PHI) as defined by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, and (b) Customer will not provide any PII to Black Box (or upload any PII into the Services) in connection with the Services except to the extent such PII is necessary for Customer to use or access the Services. To the extent that the Customer or any of its Users provide any PII to Black Box (or upload any PII into the Services), except for PII necessary for Customer to use or access the Services, then Customer (and not Black Box) shall be solely responsible for all liability or obligations with respect to such PII under any and all circumstances including but not limited to any data breach.
  11. GENERAL PROVISIONS
    1. Entire Agreement and Controlling Documents.

Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be null and void. Black Box may use independent contractors or subcontractors to assist in the delivery of Services; provided, however, that Black Box shall remain liable for the actions or omissions of such independent contractors or subcontractors and for the payment of their compensation.
    3. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States of America, without regard to its choice of law provisions.

    4. Relationship of the Parties. The Parties to this Agreement are independent contractors and neither shall have authority to bind or obligate the other.
    5. Force Majeure. In the event either Party is delayed in or prevented from performing any act required hereunder (except for Customer’s obligation to make any payment hereunder) due to failure of any external communication system or on- or off-line computing equipment, labor troubles, inability to procure materials, governmental or judicial orders, acts of God, acts of terrorism, weather conditions, pandemics, third party interference or other similar reason (in each case to the extent beyond its reasonable control), then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of such delay.
    6. Notices. Any notice or request given hereunder shall be in writing and deemed given on the date received when delivered personally or by nationally recognized delivery service (i) if to Black Box at TDn2K, LLC dba Black Box Intelligence, 14785 Preston Road, Suite 290, Dallas, Texas, 75254, Attention: CEO; and (ii) if to Customer, at the contact address set forth on an Order Form or such other address as may be provided in writing.
    7. Counterpart and Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any Party whose signature appears thereon, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile, by electronic mail and such signatures shall be deemed to bind each Party as if they were original signatures.
    8. Waiver and Severability. No modification or waiver of this Agreement will be binding, unless in writing and signed by the authorized representatives of the Parties. The failure of either Party to exercise any of its rights under this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver or forfeiture of such rights. The invalidity or unenforceability of one or more provisions of this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement will be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision(s) were omitted.
