9. INDEMNIFICATION
9.1 SourceDay Indemnity. SourceDay will defend any action brought against Customer to the extent that it is based upon a third party claim (a) that the SaaS Services, as provided by SourceDay to Customer under this Agreement and used within the scope of this Agreement, infringe or misappropriate any U.S. patent, copyright or trade secret or violates any other intellectual property right of a third party, and/or (b) arising from the willful misconduct or fraud of SourceDay, and SourceDay will indemnify Customer from the costs, damages and reasonable attorneys’ fees attributable to such claim that are awarded against Customer or agreed upon by SourceDay in settlement.
9.2 Injunction. If Customer’s use of any of the SaaS Services hereunder is, or in SourceDay’ opinion is likely to be, enjoined due to the type of infringement specified in Section 9.1 above, or if a claim is brought against Customer due to the type of infringement specified in Section 9.1 above, then SourceDay may, at its sole option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using such SaaS Services under the terms of this Agreement; (b) replace or modify such SaaS Services so that they are non-infringing and substantially equivalent or better in function to the enjoined SaaS Services; or (c) if options (a) and (b) above cannot be accomplished despite SourceDay’ commercially reasonable efforts, then SourceDay may terminate Customer’s rights and SourceDay’ obligations hereunder with respect to such SaaS Services and remit to Customer any pre-paid Subscription Fees for the remainder of the Term after the termination.
9.3 Exclusions. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 9.1 above, SourceDay will have no liability for any infringement or misappropriation claim of any kind to the extent it results from: (a) information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material furnished by or on behalf of Customer; (b) modification or alteration of the SaaS Services not made by or for SourceDay, if infringement would have been avoided by the absence of the modifications; (c) the combination, operation or use of the SaaS Services with equipment, devices, software or data (including Customer Data) not supplied by SourceDay, if infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, operation or use; (d) use of the SaaS Services in violation of the applicable Documentation; (e) Customer’s continuing such allegedly infringing activity after being informed by SourceDay and provided, at no additional charge, with modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement and reasonable time to implement such modifications; or (f) Customer’s or an Authorized User’s use of the SaaS Services in breach of this Agreement. Sections 9.1 – 9.3 set forth SourceDay’ exclusive obligations and liabilities, and Customer’s exclusive remedies, with respect to infringement of intellectual property rights under or in connection with this Agreement.
9.4 Customer Indemnity. Customer will defend any action brought against SourceDay to the extent that it is based upon a claim (a) that the Customer Data, as provided by Customer to SourceDay under this Agreement and used within the scope of this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates any patent, copyright or trade secret or violates any other intellectual property or other right of a third party or violates applicable law and/or (b) arising from the willful misconduct or fraud of Customer, and Customer will indemnify SourceDay from the costs, damages and reasonable attorneys’ fees attributable to such claim that are awarded against SourceDay or agreed upon by Customer in settlement.
9.5 Process. The party seeking to be indemnified will give prompt written notice to the other party of the claim against which it seeks to be indemnified and will provide the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s expense, with the assistance reasonably necessary for the defense and settlement of the claim. The failure by the indemnified party to timely furnish to the indemnifying party any notice required to be furnished under this Section 9 will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 9, except to the extent such failure materially and adversely prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend such claim. The indemnifying party will have control of the defense and settlement of any such claim. The indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of an action effected without its written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnifying party will not settle any claim without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless the settlement unconditionally releases the indemnified party of all liability. The indemnified party may engage counsel of its choice at its own expense.

NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL LIMIT A PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY SUCH PARTY’S NEGLIGENCE OR A PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR FRAUD. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION 10 REFLECT THE ALLOCATION OF RISK SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT THE PARTIES WOULD NOT ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.
11. MISCELLANEOUS
11.1 Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable under this Agreement for any failure, deficiency or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement due to any force majeure event, including natural catastrophe, fire, explosion, electrical or communication line failure, disturbance, war or military action, acts of terrorism, epidemic, pandemic, government acts, orders, or regulation, equipment failure, or any cause or matter whatsoever not within the reasonable control of such party. In the event of such a force majeure, the affected party will be entitled to a reasonable extension of time for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. If the force majeure event continues for more than 60 calendar days, then either party may terminate the Agreement upon written notice to the other party.
11.2 Publicity. SourceDay may identify Customer as a customer on its website using Customer’s name and logo and include Customer in a customer list during prospective customer presentations and the like.
11.3 Promotion and Press Release: Customer or SourceDay may each issue one press release on or before 30 days after an Order Effective Date. In either case, the press release will be mutually approved before release and such approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
11.4 Waiver. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of that right. A waiver by a party of any provision of this Agreement in any one instance will not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of such provision for any similar instance in the future or of any subsequent breach.
11.5 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision will be deemed null and void, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in effect. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith an enforceable substitute provision for any invalid or unenforceable provision that most nearly achieves the intent and economic effect of such provision.
11.6 Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and be enforceable by and against the parties hereto and, to the extent permitted hereby, their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement is not transferable or assignable by either party, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Provided, however, either party may, without the other party’s consent, assign or transfer all or part of this Agreement to any Affiliate or to any successor-in-interest to all or substantially all the business or assets of the assigning party pertaining to the subject matter hereof, whether voluntarily or by merger, reorganization, asset sale, or otherwise. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section will be null and void.
11.7 Independent Contractors. The relationship between the parties created by this Agreement is that of independent contractors and neither party will have any authority to create any obligation on behalf of the other.
11.8 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without reference to conflict of laws principles. Each party irrevocably submits to venue and exclusive personal jurisdiction in the federal and state courts in Austin, Travis County, Texas, for any disputes or claims arising out of this Agreement and waives all objections to jurisdiction and venue of such courts; provided that nothing in this Section will restrict either party from seeking injunctive relief in a forum of its choice. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.
11.9 Anti-Corruption Laws. Each party is subject to various anti-bribery statutes in the U.S. and around the globe, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Each party represents and warrants in connection with its performance under this Agreement that it (a) has not done and will not do anything to violate these laws and other related laws in the applicable jurisdictions, and (b) has implemented its own anti-corruption policy and will take appropriate, risk-based procedures to abide by its anti-corruption policy for the term of this Agreement.
11.10 Compliance with Laws. Each of SourceDay and Customer will comply with all applicable export laws, restrictions, and regulations of the United States or foreign agency or authority. Customer will not use the SaaS Services, or allow the transfer, transmission, export, or re-export of the SaaS Services or portion thereof, in violation of any export control laws or regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce, OFAC, or any other government agency or authority. Customer will obtain and bear all expenses relating to any necessary licenses or exemptions with respect to the export from the U.S. of the SaaS Services to any location so as to be in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. By signing this Agreement, Customer confirms that Customer is not a resident or citizen of any country currently embargoed by the U.S. and that Customer is not otherwise prohibited from receiving the SaaS Services.
11.11 Language. This Agreement is in the English language only, which language will be controlling in all respects, and all versions hereof in any other language will not be binding on the parties hereto.
11.12 Notice. Notice to either party will be sent to the address shown on the first page of this Agreement. All notices will be sent by certified mail or nationally recognized overnight courier service.
11.13 Construction. The headings of Sections of this Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and are not to be used to interpret, construe, define, or describe the scope of any aspect of this Agreement. The terms “include,” “including,” “includes” and similar terms mean “including, without limitation.” Each party represents that it has had the opportunity to participate in the preparation of this Agreement, and any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party will not be applied in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly stated to the contrary herein, all remedies are cumulative and the exercise of any express remedy by either party does not by itself waive such party’s right to exercise its other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
11.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which taken together will constitute one single agreement between the parties. This signed Agreement or counterparts may be exchanged electronically or stored electronically as a photocopy (such as in .pdf format). The parties agree that electronically exchanged or stored copies will be enforceable as original documents and consent to the use of electronic and/or digital signatures for the execution of this Agreement and further agree the use of electronic and/or digital signatures will be binding, enforceable and admissible into evidence in any dispute regarding this Agreement.
11.15 Order of Precedence. To the extent there is a conflict between the terms in the main text of this Agreement and any terms in the Order and the other referenced documents, then the following precedence will apply: (1) the Order; (2) the main text of the Agreement; and (3) the other referenced documents.
11.16 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Orders, the SOWs and the Schedules referenced herein) contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SCHEDULE B
Support Commitment
SourceDay shall provide emailed support during normal business hours of 7am – 7pm CST Monday through Friday.
- Service Level Availability
a. SourceDay shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make the SaaS Services available to Authorized Users, assuming Authorized Users’ hardware, software and internet connections are functioning properly, at least 99.9% of the time during any calendar month, excluding: (i) planned downtime, and (ii) any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation, failures of internet access, acts of God, acts of government, floods, fires, earthquakes, other weather events, war (declared or not), civil unrest, acts of terror, strikes or other labor problems (other than those involving our employees), or denial of service attacks (“Availability”).
b. In respect of planned downtime, SourceDay shall use reasonable efforts to provide Customer with at least twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice posted via the SaaS Services, and to the extent practicable, SourceDay shall schedule such downtime during the weekend hours (from 6pm Friday to 3am Monday Central Time). - In the event SourceDay does not achieve the Availability in Section 1 above in any given calendar month, Customer shall be eligible for a ten percent (10%) credit against the amounts owed to SourceDay for SaaS Services rendered for that month (prorated based on 1/12 of a yearly subscription cost to Customer). In order to receive this credit, Customer must inform SourceDay by submitting an email to [email protected] of a failure to meet Availability (including the dates and times of each unavailability incident that Customer is claiming) no later than fifteen (15) days after the end of the applicable month SourceDay will review Customer’s notice to SourceDay and if SourceDay agree with Customer’s claim, SourceDay will issue the service credit to Customer within sixty days following the date of Customer’s notification. In the event SourceDay disagrees with Customer’s conclusion, SourceDay will jointly review and discuss the matter until SourceDay can arrive at a mutual agreement as to the applicability of a credit. The remedies set forth in this paragraph represent Customer’s sole remedy and our sole obligation in respect of failure of the SaaS Services set forth in this paragraph.
- In the event that (i) Availability is less than 90% in more than two calendar months during the Subscription Period (including any Orders with additional quantities for the same SaaS Services), together the “Affected Orders”; or (ii) if SourceDay fails to meet Availability set forth in the Section 1 for two consecutive calendar months during the applicable Subscription Period, then Customer shall have the right to terminate any Affected Orders for cause immediately upon notice, subject to Customer’s notifying SourceDay in writing on or before sixty (60) days after the occurrence giving rise to the termination right. In the event Customer does not notify SourceDay within such sixty (60) day period, such termination right shall be null and void. In the event of termination in accordance with this Section 3, SourceDay shall refund to Customer a prorated refund of any pre-paid Subscription Fees corresponding to the remainder of the Subscription Term from the date of termination. The remedies set forth in this Support Commitment represent Customer’s sole remedy and our sole obligation in respect of failure to meet Availability.
