You acknowledge and agree that You may be required to install certain software components on Your own system and within Your network in order to properly use the Software. You agree to install such components on Your own system and within Your network and to allow ECI to remotely access such software within its network to the extent necessary to assist You in trouble shooting and resolving support related issues.

THE SERVICES MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS, DELAYS, AND OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF THE INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. ECI SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DELAYS, DELIVERY FAILURES, OR OTHER DAMAGES RESULTING FROM SUCH PROBLEMS.

You represent and warrant to ECI that You shall perform Your obligations under this Agreement in compliance with all applicable Export Control Laws. You agree to obtain all necessary licenses, approvals, or authorizations from relevant governmental authorities prior to exporting or re-exporting any products,
including hardware, software, technology, or technical data, acquired or to be provided under this Agreement, or the direct product of any such hardware, software, technology, or technical data (collectively, the “Items”).

You are responsible for safeguarding the password that You use to access the Software (and the Services, if applicable) and for any activities or actions under Your password.

You shall notify ECI immediately to the extent You become aware of any unauthorized use, or access to the Software or the Services or any other Confidential Information made available to You under this Agreement, by any person or entity not authorized by this Agreement to have such possession, use or access. You will promptly furnish full details of such possession, use or access, and will cooperate with ECI in any litigation against third parties deemed necessary by ECI to protect its proprietary and contractual rights.

Confidentiality
The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (i) not use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement and (ii) except as
otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with the
Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those herein. Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any Order Form to any third party other than its affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent,
provided that a party that makes any such disclosure to its affiliate, legal counsel or accountants will remain responsible for such affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this “Confidentiality” section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ECI may disclose the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Order Form to a subcontractor to the extent necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, under terms of confidentiality materially as protective as set forth herein. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party's cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information. Each party’s obligations under this Section (Confidentiality) shall survive expiration or termination of the Agreement for a period of three (3) years.

Audit Rights and License Management
At any time during the Term of this Agreement, ECI (or the applicable Reseller) may audit Your use of the Software (and the Services, if applicable) in order to verify compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation electronic auditing means. If ECI (or the applicable Reseller) elects to conduct
a physical audit, such audit shall occur no more frequently than once annually at ECI’s (or the applicable Reseller’s) expense. All physical audits shall be conducted during regular business hours at Your site and shall not unreasonably interfere with Your business activities. ECI (or the applicable Reseller) shall
schedule any such audits at least ten (10) business days in advance. If any audit by ECI or the Reseller yields any deficiency in the amounts paid to ECI (or the applicable Reseller), You shall promptly remit payment to ECI (or the applicable Reseller) of such amounts plus interest calculated at the maximum rate allowed under applicable law. In addition, if an audit by ECI yields a deficiency of 5% or more between the amounts actually paid to ECI (or the applicable Reseller) versus the amounts that should have been paid for actual usage of the Software, You will promptly reimburse ECI (or the applicable Reseller) for all
reasonable costs incurred in connection with the audit.

If Your account is past due (except with respect to charges then under reasonable and good faith dispute), in addition to any of its other rights or remedies, ECI reserves the right to suspend the right to access and use the Software and Services, without liability to You, until such amounts are paid in full.

ECI (or the applicable Reseller), in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify the fees for the Software and/or the Services. Any change in the fees will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle. ECI will provide You with a reasonable prior notice of any change in the fees. Your continued use
of the Software (and the Services, if applicable) after any change in the fees becomes effective constitutes your agreement to pay the modified fees.

Claim.

You to continue to use the Software. If neither (i) nor (ii) are reasonably possible to ECI, then ECI (and/or the applicable Reseller) may terminate this Agreement upon written notice. This Section states Your sole and exclusive remedy, and ECI’s sole and exclusive obligation, with respect to an Infringement Claim.
