Customer further acknowledges and agrees that the CUBE3 Software Services include features that are designed to optimize cost, performance, compliance, and scalability across multiple cloud- computing and cloud-storage providers utilized by the Customer, and therefore CUBE3 may incur charges on Customer’s behalf with such cloud-computing and cloud-storage providers.

6.1 Confidential Information. Each party (the “Disclosing Party”) may from time to time during the Term disclose to or learn from the other party (the “Receiving Party”) certain information regarding the Disclosing Party’s business, including without limitation, technical, marketing, financial, employee, planning, and other confidential or proprietary information whether disclosed orally, in writing or visually, that is either marked or designated as confidential or is identified in writing as confidential at the time of disclosure or which the Receiving Party knew or should have known, under the circumstances, was considered confidential or proprietary by the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”).

Both parties acknowledge and agree that the Disclosing Party may be irreparably harmed by any violation of this Section 6 (Confidentiality) and that the use of the Confidential Information for any purpose other than that stated herein may, among other things, enable the Receiving Party or other third parties receiving such Confidential Information to compete unfairly with the Disclosing Party. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity, to seek (i) an injunction restraining such breach; or (ii) a decree for specific performance of the applicable provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the termination or expiration of this Agreement, the obligations of the Receiving Party, with respect to the Confidential Information of Disclosing Party, shall be in full force and effect as follows: (A) in the case of any information or materials that constitute a trade secret within the meaning of applicable law, for as long as such information and materials remain as a trade secret, or (B) in the case of any other information or materials, during the Term and for five (5) years following the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
6.3 Exceptions. The Receiving Party’s obligations under this subsection will not apply to any portion of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information if the Receiving Party can document that such information: (a) was already lawfully known to the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (b) is disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third party who had the right to make such disclosure without any confidentiality restrictions; (c) is, or through no fault of the Receiving Party has become, generally available to the public; or (d) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. In addition, the Receiving Party will be allowed to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent that such disclosure is (i) approved in writing by the Disclosing Party, (ii) necessary for the Receiving Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement in connection with a legal proceeding; or (iii) required by law or by the order of a court or similar judicial or administrative body, provided that the Receiving Party, as permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations, notifies the Disclosing Party of such required disclosure in writing promptly, and cooperates with the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s reasonable request and expense, in any lawful action to contest or limit the scope of such required disclosure.
6.4 Destruction of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will destroy or permanently erase, as appropriate, all physical and electronic copies of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the Receiving Party’s possession or control promptly upon the written request of the Disclosing Party or the expiration or termination of this Agreement, whichever comes first; provided that any electronic copies stored in connection with the Receiving Party’s back-up and recovery operations conducted in the ordinary course of business may be retained and will continue to be subject to the terms herein. At the Disclosing Party’s request, the Receiving Party will certify in writing that it has fully complied with its obligations under this subsection.
6.5 Confidentiality of Agreement. Neither party will disclose any terms of any Order Form, or any amendment, modification or waiver to this Agreement, to anyone other than its attorneys, accountants, and other professional advisors under a duty of confidentiality except (a) as required by law; (b) pursuant to a mutually agreeable press release; (c) in connection with a proposed merger, financing, or sale of such party’s business (provided that any third party to whom the terms of this Agreement are to be disclosed signs a confidentiality agreement, or is otherwise subject to confidentiality obligations, in each case no less strict than those set forth in this Agreement); or (d) as provided in Subsection 3.6.
6.6 No Protected Health Information. Customer shall not provide, transmit, disclose, or otherwise make available to CUBE3 any “Protected Health Information” as defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”). Customer agrees that CUBE3 is not a “Business Associate” or “Subcontractor” under HIPAA, and Customer shall not use the CUBE3 Software Services in any manner that would require CUBE3 or the CUBE3 Software Services to comply with HIPAA, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) Act, their enabling regulations, or similar state laws or regulations. If Customer transmits or otherwise makes any Protected Health Information available to CUBE3 through the CUBE3 Software Services, Customer will reimburse CUBE3 for any costs that CUBE3 incurs to extract, delete, remove, and otherwise remediate such information from the CUBE3 Software Services. As used in this paragraph, the terms “Business Associate,” “Protected Health Information,” and “Subcontractor” shall have the meanings ascribed to them under HIPAA, the HITECH Act, and their enabling regulations.
7. WARRANTIES. THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES WILL MATERIALLY CONFORM TO THE DOCUMENTATION.

CUBE3 WILL HAVE THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER RECEIVING SUCH NOTICE TO CORRECT SUCH NONCONFORMITY IF CUBE3, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, DETERMINES THAT SUCH NONCONFORMITY EXISTS. IF CUBE3 DETERMINES THAT SUCH NONCONFORMITY EXISTS, BUT IS UNABLE TO CORRECT SUCH NONCONFORMITY WITHIN SUCH THIRTY (30) DAY PERIOD, CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY WILL BE TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND CUBE3 WILL PROVIDE A REFUND TO CUSTOMER ON A PRO RATA BASIS OF ANY PREPAID FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION TERM. THE FOREGOING REPRESENTS CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN THE EVENT THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES DO NOT MATERIALLY CONFORM TO THE DOCUMENTATION.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, CUBE3 NEITHER WARRANTS THAT THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES WILL BE PROVIDED IN AN UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE MANNER, NOR DOES CUBE3 MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS OBTAINED FROM THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES OR AS TO THE ACCURACY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY CONTENT CONTAINED IN OR PROVIDED THROUGH THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES. USE OF ANY MATERIAL AND DATA OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES SHALL BE AT CUSTOMER’S OWN DISCRETION AND RISK AND CUSTOMER WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO CUSTOMER’S (OR ANY OTHER USER’S) COMPUTER SYSTEM, MOBILE DEVICE, OR DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE CUBE3 CLOUD SERVICES OR THE DOWNLOAD OF ANY SUCH MATERIAL OR DATA.

CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF THIS SECTION 9.2 IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND LIMIT POTENTIAL LIABILITY GIVEN THE SUBSCRIPTION CHARGES AND FEES, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER IF CUBE3 WERE TO ASSUME ANY FURTHER LIABILITY OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH HEREIN.

The Agreement shall commence on the date of Customer’s agreement to these Terms and shall continue for the time period set forth in or described on the Portal or Order Form as applicable (“Initial Term”). The Agreement shall renew automatically for additional one (1) year periods (each a “Renewal Term”) unless a party provides the other party with written notice of its intention not to renew the Agreement at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the then-current Term (“Non-Renewal Notice”).

10.2 Termination. This Agreement and any Order Form may be terminated by either party (the “Non-breaching Party”) effective immediately upon written notice containing an explanation of the alleged breach to the other party (the “Breaching Party”), if the Breaching Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, and does not cure the breach within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice thereof from the Non-breaching Party; provided, however, that if such breach is not capable of being cured, this Agreement and any Order Form shall terminate immediately upon the Breaching Party receiving notice of such breach from the Non-breaching Party. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, CUBE3 may terminate this Agreement, and Customer’s use of the CUBE3 Software Services, at any time and for any (or no reason) if Customer is using a free plan or version of the CUBE3 Software Services.

12.1 Governing Law; Arbitration.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without reference to conflicts of laws provisions and, as to matters affecting copyrights, trademarks and patents, by U.S. federal law. Any dispute or claim arising out of, or in connection with, the Agreement shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in [Raleigh, NC, USA], in accordance with the then-current rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association by one (1) arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall apply the law of the State of Delaware, without reference to rules of conflict of law or statutory rules of arbitration, to the merits of any dispute or claim. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed, reduced to judgment and entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Customer agrees that, any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator shall have the authority to award the prevailing party its costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. The foregoing agreement to arbitration includes all claims of any type, including all common law and/or statutory claims under local, state, or federal law. In the event that the above arbitration provision is held invalid or unenforceable, then any dispute with respect to the Agreement shall be brought and heard either in the Norh Carolina state courts located in Raleigh, NC, or the federal district court located in Raleigh, NC. In such event, Customer consents to the in personam jurisdiction and venue of such courts. Customer agrees that service of process upon Customer in any such action may be made if delivered in person, by courier service, by email, by telefacsimile or by first class mail, and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt; provided, that with respect to notice sent by email, notice shall be deemed effectively given upon CUBE3’s sending of such notice, if such email is not returned to sender or notice is not otherwise returned to CUBE3 that the email is undeliverable.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if either party seeks preliminary injunctive relief to protect its rights, then such party will have the power, without waiving this arbitration agreement, to invoke the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction for the exclusive purpose of obtaining such preliminary injunctive relief, and for such purpose each party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of, and the laying of venue in, the state and federal courts sitting in Raleigh, NC. Each party hereby waives and agrees not to assert, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim that (i) such party is not subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) venue in such courts is improper, (iii) any proceeding allowed by this paragraph commenced in such courts is brought in an inconvenient forum, and (iv) that any action by a party to seek preliminary injunctive relief in such courts is a waiver of such party’s right to enforce this arbitration agreement.
(d) BY ENTERING INTO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, CUSTOMER AND CUBE3 AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then that claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. All other claims will be arbitrated.
12.2 Export; Anti-Corruption. Each party shall comply with the export laws and regulations of the United States and other applicable jurisdictions in providing and using the CUBE3 Software Services. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) each party represents that it is not named on any U.S. government list of persons or entities prohibited from receiving exports, and (ii) Customer shall not permit its Users to access or use CUBE3 Software Services in violation of any U.S. export embargo, prohibition or restriction. Customer represents that it has not received or been offered any illegal or improper bribe, kickback, payment, gift, or thing of value from any of CUBE3’s employees or agents in connection with this Agreement. Reasonable gifts and entertainment provided in the ordinary course of business do not violate the above restriction. If Customer learns of any violation of the above restriction, Customer will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify CUBE3.
12.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
12.4 Waiver; Remedies. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. Other than as expressly stated herein, the remedies provided herein are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other remedies of a party at law or in equity.
12.5 Entire Agreement. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement, together with the schedules, annexes, and documents referenced herein and all Order Forms hereunder, constitute the entire agreement between the parties as to its subject matter, and supersede all previous and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. No representation, undertaking or promise shall be taken to have been given or be implied from anything said or written in negotiations between the parties prior to this Agreement except as expressly stated in this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, no modification, amendment, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (or any Order Form) shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties (which may include electronic signatures and/or acceptance of such amendments or waivers via a “click-through” or other similar form of electronic acceptance as provided in herein). Customer acknowledges and agrees that its agreement hereunder is not contingent upon the delivery of any future functionality or features not specified herein or in an Order Form or dependent upon any oral or written, public or private comments made by CUBE3 with respect to future functionality or features for the CUBE3 Software Services. In the event of any conflict between the provisions in this Agreement and any Order Form, the terms of such Order Form shall prevail.
