EXECUTE OR DEACTIVATE THE LICENSE KEY UPON TERMINATION OF YOUR LICENSE. YOU
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LICENSE KEY IS NOT A VIRUS, AND THAT EXECUTION OR

PAY EFI’S THEN-CURRENT FEE TO REACTIVATE THE PRODUCT.
2. Installation and Professional Services.
(a). Installation.

EFI or its designated provider will provide those services necessary to allow
you Access, including a password(s).
(b). Data Entry. All data generated by and

responsible for (i) ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to
passwords to Access the Product, (ii) assigning roles and authority levels for

the confidentiality and integrity of passwords and authority levels. You shall
indemnify and hold EFI harmless from any liability, damages, or costs arising
from your failure to comply with this Section.
(d). Scheduled Downtime and Upgrades.
Downtime is required from time-to-time for regular maintenance of the
technology that supports the Product.
EFI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform scheduled
downtime outside normal business hours. EFI may also install new or updated software

the Software, to aid in providing ongoing stability and security of the hosted
solution. You shall facilitate commercially reasonable upgrades and
operations without undue delay or objection.
(e). Unexpected
Outages. EFI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid unexpected
outages and to restore Access as soon as possible. If you do not have Access for more than two
(2) consecutive hours within any 24-hour period because of an unexpected outage
caused by EFI, you may request credit for one day of the applicable Fees (based
on an average of that month’s invoice).
THIS IS YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND EFI’S ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR
UNSCHEDULED DOWNTIME OR OUTAGES, AND EFI WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES
RELATED TO ANY UNSCHEDULED DOWNTIME OR OUTAGES.
(f). Self-Hosting.
You at all times retain the right to self-host the Product from another
location and, if you are being granted a term license, continue to pay the Term
License Fees for the Software. Any Professional Services performed by EFI in
migrating a hosted solution to a self-hosted solution are billable at EFI’s
standard rates.
(g). Maintenance.
If you are being granted a perpetual License as a hosted solution, you must
remain on Maintenance for the period that EFI or its designated third-party
provider is providing the hosting services to you.
4. Fees and Delivery.
(a). Fees. You shall pay all applicable
Fees.
(b). Title and Risk of Loss. Title and
risk of loss for any media or hardware for the Product transfers to you at
EFI’s designated manufacturing plant(s) or warehouse(s). If the Product is
delivered electronically, risk of loss transfers to you when the Product or Access is made available to you.
(c). Hardware
Delivery. Unless otherwise specified in the Purchase Documentation, where
you are purchasing hardware: (i) EFI shall act as agent for you and procure
insurance against risk of loss and/or procure and prepay for shipment, (ii) you
shall reimburse EFI for all charges relating to the shipment of hardware upon
EFI providing an invoice for such charges. EFI shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to ship hardware as soon as practicable following execution
of this Agreement and EFI’s receipt of any required deposits. If you request a
delay in delivery or otherwise cause a delay in the transportation process, EFI
reserves the right to separately charge you for any costs it incurs for paying
the logistics company to store and warehouse hardware on your behalf.
5. Product Maintenance.
(a). Subject
to your timely payment of all applicable Fees, EFI or its designated provider
will provide you with annual Maintenance for the Product. Maintenance terms
automatically renew for consecutive 12-month periods unless cancelled by either
party with written notice at least 30 days before the Maintenance Renewal Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Maintenance for certain Products (e.g.,
individual Software modules that are part of the EFI Software solution) may only
be cancelled in the event that you are no longer using those certain Products;
please first consult with EFI in the event you desire to cancel Maintenance for
any Product.
(b). You
must possess a valid License to use any upgrade or update. By using an upgrade
or update, your license to any previous version of the Product automatically
terminates. If you (i) have an out-of-date version of the Product or (ii) are
not current on Maintenance due to your failure to timely pay Maintenance Fees
and wish to update your version of the Product, you must pay any unpaid Fees and
may be subject to additional fees to transfer or convert any old data. EFI
reserves the right to discontinue Maintenance for all out-of-date versions of
the Product.
6. Warranty and Disclaimer.
(a). Limited Warranties. EFI warrants to
you that (i) EFI has the right to grant the License, (ii) subject to your timely payment of all applicable Fees,
the Products as delivered to you will perform materially in accordance with
EFI’s then-current, applicable specifications if all available updates,
upgrades, and bug-fixes are properly installed, and (iii) any Professional
Services you purchase will be provided in good and workmanlike manner
consistent with generally accepted industry standards. This warranty does not
apply to defects attributable to (A) any equipment or software not provided or
approved for use by EFI, (B) any modification of the Product by you, your
employees, or any third party acting on your behalf, (C) any accident, neglect,
misuse, or abuse by you, your employees, or any third party acting on your
behalf, or (D) exposure of the Product to conditions outside the range of
environmental, power, and operating specifications provided by EFI. You shall
cooperate fully and promptly with EFI’s attempts to identify the cause of any
claimed breach of this limited warranty.
(b). Security of Your Systems. You are
solely responsible for (i) ensuring the confidentiality, security, and
integrity of your network connectivity, data, and servers, (ii) preventing and
bearing the risk of any loss or damage to any data on your servers, and (iii)
maintaining archive and backup copies of any data.
(c). WARRANTY
DISCLAIMER AND REMEDIES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE IN LIEU OF
ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES. EFI, ITS SUPPLIERS, AND LICENSORS
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; ANY WARRANTIES RELATING TO SECURITY; AND ANY
WARRANTIES THAT THE OPERATION OF THE PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, OR
ERROR-FREE. EFI MAKES NO WARRANTY, IMPLIED OR OTHERWISE, REGARDING THE
PERFORMANCE OR RELIABILITY OF ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS, OR SERVICES.
TO
THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
TO WHICH YOU ARE ENTITLED FOR BREACH OF THESE LIMITED WARRANTIES, AND THE
ENTIRE LIABILITY OF EFI AND ITS SUPPLIERS RELATING TO BREACH OF THESE LIMITED
WARRANTIES, IS, AT EFI’S OPTION, TO (1) REPAIR OR REPLACE THE PRODUCT OR
RE-PERFORM THE SERVICE THAT DOES NOT MEET THE LIMITED WARRANTY, OR (2) PROVIDE
A REFUND OF THE THEN-CURRENT REASONABLE COMMERCIAL VALUE (IF ANY) FOR THE
PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT DOES NOT MEET THE LIMITED WARRANTY. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED
IN THIS AGREEMENT, THERE ARE NO REFUNDS, RETURNS, EXCHANGES, OR REPLACEMENTS.
7. Infringement Indemnification.
EFI shall indemnify you from IP Claims and
reimburse you for damages paid by you to the party bringing the IP Claim
pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment that the Product directly
infringes any Third Party IP Rights. If you do not notify EFI in writing within
10 business days of learning of the IP Claim, and give EFI proper and full
information, assistance, and exclusive authority to defend or settle the IP
Claim, EFI will be relieved of its obligations under this Section. If the
Product or any part of it is in EFI’s opinion likely to become the subject of a
claim of infringement of Third Party IP Rights, or if it is adjudicatively
determined that the Product or any part of it infringes Third Party IP Rights,
EFI may at its option (i) obtain for you a license or right to use the Third
Party IP Rights so you can continue to use the Product, or (ii) replace or
modify the Product with other suitable and reasonably equivalent non-infringing
technology or parts, or (iii) if it is not commercially reasonable to take the
actions described in clauses (i) or (ii) in this sentence, terminate your
License and, if you return the Product to EFI, refund a portion of the license
fee paid by you equal to the then-current reasonable commercial value (if any)
of the Product. EFI shall not be responsible, liable, or obligated to indemnify
or reimburse you if the alleged infringement arises out of (i) compliance with
your requirements or specifications that are outside EFI’s standard
specifications for the Product, (ii) any addition or incorporation to or
modification of the Product at your request, (iii) any combination of the
Product with any product or software not provided by EFI, or (iv) use of the
Product in the practice of a process or system other than that for which it was
intended. In any event as described in the preceding sentence, you shall defend
and/or settle any claim brought against EFI at your own expense, and shall
indemnify EFI against any costs, legal fees, other expenses, and damages
required for the defense or settlement of the claim.
THE RIGHTS GRANTED TO YOU IN THIS SECTION
ARE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR ANY ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OF THE
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY.
8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT
WILL EFI OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, HOWEVER
CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES. EFI IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR REVENUE, LOSS OF
USE OF THE PRODUCT, LOSS OF DATA, OR THE COST OF RECOVERING ANY DATA. EXCEPT
FOR INSTANCES INVOLVING EFI’S WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, EFI WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR
DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY BREACH, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, MISUSE, OR INTRUSION
RELATED TO YOUR DATA ON EFI’S OR ITS SUPPLIERS’ SERVERS OR ANY NETWORK YOU USE
IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT.
IN NO EVENT WILL EFI’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL
CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS, SERVICES, ACCESS, AND/OR THIS
AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, UNDER
STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU
IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM FOR THE EFI PRODUCT, SERVICES, OR ACCESS
GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. YOU AGREE THAT THIS AMOUNT IS SUFFICIENT TO SATISFY
THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT THE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT,
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, OR ACCESS REFLECTS THIS ALLOCATION OF RISK.
THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND
DISCLAIMERS FORM AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WITHOUT WHICH EFI
WOULD NOT HAVE LICENSED OR SOLD THE PRODUCT TO YOU OR PROVIDED YOU WITH ACCESS.
BECAUSE
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW SOME OR ALL OF THE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF
LIABILITY IN THIS AGREEMENT, SOME OR ALL OF THEM MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
9. Proprietary Rights and Confidential Information.
(a). No
Implied Conveyance of Proprietary Rights. The Product, Documentation, and
any Work Product are the valuable, confidential, and proprietary property of
EFI, its suppliers and licensors. EFI is not conveying any of its Intellectual
Property Rights, except the limited rights specified in this Agreement. You shall
maintain and reproduce all copyright, trademark, patent, and other proprietary
notices on the Product in the same form and manner as delivered by EFI.
(b). Protection
of Information. You shall not disclose any of EFI’s Confidential Information,
and shall take precautions with respect to EFI’s Products and Confidential
Information that are at least as protective as you take to protect your own
confidential information and proprietary rights of the greatest sensitivity.
You shall advise your employees and authorized independent contractors of the
confidential and proprietary nature of the Product and EFI’s Confidential
Information and of the restrictions imposed by this Agreement, and confine
access to the Product and EFI’s Confidential Information to those individuals
who need it in the ordinary course and scope of their employment or
relationship with you. Except as specified in this Agreement, you shall not
directly or indirectly disclose any part of the Product, EFI’s Confidential
Information, or Documentation to any third party.
(c). Termination;
Injunctive Relief. Your violation of the confidentiality obligations or of
EFI’s Intellectual Property Rights may cause irreparable damage that cannot be
fully remedied by money damages. In the event of any actual or threatened
violation, you agree that EFI will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy
available to it, to (i) terminate this Agreement, retake possession of the
Product, execute the License Key, and/or terminate Access, and/or (ii) obtain
injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction
to prevent any further violation.
(d). Use
of Your Trademarks and Logos. Subject to any reasonable use guidelines, you
grant EFI a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use Customer
Marks in connection with this Agreement, for use with the Product, for
promoting EFI’s Products in marketing materials, print, or on-line advertising,
and for identifying you as an EFI customer. You shall also secure for EFI any
rights or sublicenses required for EFI’s use of the trademarks or service marks
of your Affiliates. EFI acknowledges that (i) Customer Marks are owned solely
and exclusively by you or your Affiliates, (ii) EFI has no other rights, title,
or interest in or to Customer Marks, and (iii) all use and goodwill of Customer
Marks by EFI inures to the benefit of you and your Affiliates.
10. Termination.

may be terminated immediately upon written notice to the other party
(i) by EFI, if you fail to make any required payment other than
Maintenance Fees, (ii) by the non-breaching party, if you or EFI fails to cure
a material breach within 30 days after written notice from the non-breaching
party, or (iii) by EFI, if you cease doing business as a going concern, become
the object of voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings
that are not dismissed within 60 days after the initial filing, or if a
receiver is appointed with respect to a substantial portion of your assets.
(b). Upon
termination, you shall promptly (i) pay EFI all unpaid fees accrued before the
termination, (ii) return all EFI Confidential Information and the Product, and
(iii) return any materials, programs, manuals, and other items related to or
derived from the Product in your possession or control. EFI shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with any proprietary data
belonging to you in the format in which it is stored by EFI at the time of
termination.
11. Audit Rights.
EFI may audit your use of or Access to the
Product. Any audit will take place after
prior notice to you, during regular business hours, and in a manner that does
not unreasonably interfere with your normal business. If the audit shows that
you are using or accessing the Product in a way that violates this Agreement,
EFI may invoice you for such use or Access, including late fees, interest, and
expenses associated with the audit. If you do not timely pay that invoice, EFI
may exercise its termination rights and pursue any other rights or remedies
available to it.
12. Consent to Use Data.
EFI may collect and use
technical data and related information to facilitate providing and/or
confirming authorized use of Products, Access, Professional Services, and/or
Maintenance to and by you. Subject to EFI’s then-current privacy policy
(available at https://www.efi.com/legal/privacy/) and applicable laws and regulations, EFI may (i) use this
information to improve its products,
to provide customized services or technologies to you, and/or to confirm
authorized use, (ii) transfer
this information to EFI’s affiliates, agents, and partners, and (iii) transfer this information to the United States and/or any
other country where EFI or its affiliates, agents, and partners maintain
facilities.
13. Compliance with Laws.

Law Compliance. The Product and related technology, information, and
materials are subject to the export laws and regulations of the United States.
You shall comply with those and any other applicable export laws or
regulations. You are solely responsible for obtaining any necessary export
licenses and exemptions. The Product and related technology, information, and

limited to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the United
Kingdom Anti-Bribery Act, and any amendments and regulations relating to those
laws, in addition to each of our own ethical guidelines (EFI’s Code of Conduct
is available online at http://ir.efi.com/committee-details/code-business-conduct-and-ethics). Specifically, for
example, no employee, or any individual or entity acting on behalf of or for
the benefit of either EFI or Customer, may give or receive anything of value,

or any other individual for the purpose of influencing any act, securing any
improper advantage, or obtaining or retaining business.

limited to sales, use, value added, excise, services, personal property, or
other taxes.
(b). Governing Law. This Agreement is not
governed by the 1980 UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of

this Agreement, the Product, Access, or any services provided under this
Agreement, each party consents to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue
of the state and federal courts in and for Santa Clara County, California, USA.
(c). Severability;
Interpretation. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, that
provision will be fully severable and this Agreement will be construed and
enforced as if it were not included. This Agreement will be interpreted fairly
in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor or
against either party. The captions are for convenience only and do not affect
the scope, intent, or meaning of the provisions. Any failure or delay to
enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of EFI’s
right to do so.
(d). No Assignment. Assignment or transfer of this
Agreement in its entirety, including all Licenses purchased, whether
voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, requires EFI’s prior written
consent, which may be withheld, delayed, or conditioned in EFI’s sole discretion,
and may require payment of a License transfer fee. Partial assignment or
transfer of this Agreement, including a portion of Licenses purchased, whether voluntarily,
by operation of law, or otherwise, is prohibited. Any merger, consolidation or
acquisition of Customer or other transfer of all or substantially all of the
shares or assets of Customer is deemed to be an assignment under this
Agreement. Any attempted assignment or transfer without EFI’s consent is void.
(e). Language.
This Agreement is only in English, which is controlling in all respects. If EFI

in this Agreement; and (v) any waiver, modification, or amendment will be
effective only if in a writing signed by the parties, where email does not
constitute a signed writing.

and Acceptance. All orders for Products or Professional Services made
pursuant to this Agreement are non-cancelable, non-refundable and must be
submitted at least fifteen (15) days prior to the requested order delivery
date. For any given order, you shall make the order and corresponding payment
to EFI or its subsidiary or Affiliate depending upon which company is making
the sale of Products or Professional Services for that order. Orders are not
binding without written notification of acceptance from EFI. This Agreement
governs all subsequent orders, and nothing contained in Customer’s purchase
orders or other communications will in any way modify this Agreement.
(h). Independent Contractors. You and EFI,
and our respective employees and representatives, are and will be independent
contractors with respect to the other party. Neither party by virtue of this
Agreement has any right, power, or authority to act or create any obligation,
express or implied, on behalf of the other party.
(i). Survival. The provisions of this
Agreement that relate to fees and payment terms, ownership of intellectual
property and proprietary rights, export law compliance, termination,
confidentiality, infringement indemnification, warranty disclaimers, limitation
of liability, governing law, survivability, force majeure, severability and
interpretation, definitions, modification and use of software products owned or
