4. CONFIDENTIALITY
- 4.1. Non-Disclosure Obligations.
Confidential Information
(defined below) may be provided or disclosed by one party
(the “Disclosing
Party”) orally, in writing, or in graphical,
machine-readable, or other
form to the other party (the “Receiving
Party”). The Receiving
Party shall hold the Disclosing Party’s Confidential
Information in strictest
confidence and shall not make any use or disclosure of the
Disclosing Party’s
Confidential Information to any individual or entity during
the Term and thereafter
without the express written consent of the Disclosing Party
in each instance, except
to the Authorized Recipients (defined below) of the
Receiving Party. The Receiving
Party shall handle all Confidential Information received
with the same degree of
care as it uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own
confidential information,
which shall in no event be less than reasonable care. As
between the Parties, all
Confidential Information shall remain the sole and exclusive
property of the
Disclosing Party and other than the licenses expressly
granted in the Agreement, no
disclosure or permitted use of the Confidential Information
under this Agreement
shall be construed as the grant of any right, title, or
interest, by license or
otherwise, in or to such Confidential Information. The
remedy at law for breach or
threatened breach of this Section 4 may be inadequate, and
in addition to any other
remedy available, the non-breaching party shall be entitled
to seek injunctive
relief. Upon termination of the Agreement, the Receiving
Party shall promptly return
the Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party,
including all copies thereof
or, if requested to do so by the Disclosing Party, will
destroy the Confidential
Information and certify in writing to such
destruction.
- 4.2. Exceptions to Obligations. The
Receiving Party shall have
no obligation under this Section 4 with respect to any
Confidential Information
disclosed to it which: (a) the Receiving Party can
demonstrate was already known to
it (without obligation of confidentiality) at the time of
its receipt hereunder; (b)
is or becomes generally available to the public other than
by means of breach of
this Agreement or any other agreement any party may have
with the Disclosing Party;
(c) is independently obtained from a third party (other than
any Authorized
Recipient) without obligation to maintain confidentiality
and whose disclosure to
the Receiving Party does not violate a duty of
confidentiality; or (d) is
independently developed by or on behalf of the Receiving
Party without use of,
reference to, or reliance on any Confidential Information of
the Disclosing Party.
The Receiving Party acknowledges that the privacy and data
security laws in some
jurisdictions may prohibit or render ineffective some or all
of the foregoing
exclusions. If the Receiving Party is required by a court,
regulator, or other body
of competent jurisdiction to disclose the Disclosing Party’s
Confidential
Information, the Receiving Party may disclose only so much
of the Disclosing Party’s
Confidential Information as is legally required, provided
that, where practicable
and permissible, the Receiving Party has given notice of
such compelled disclosure
to the Disclosing Party and has given the Disclosing Party a
reasonable opportunity
to object to such disclosure and has provided reasonable
assistance in obtaining and
enforcing a protective order or other appropriate means of
safeguarding any
Confidential Information so required to be
disclosed.
- 4.3. Certain Confidentiality Terms
Defined. As used herein: (a)
“Authorized Recipients” means those
employees, consultants, or
agents of a Receiving Party and those third party suppliers
of the Receiving Party
to whom disclosure is necessary to receive the benefit
contemplated under the
Agreement or for performance under the Agreement, who are
bound to duties of
non-disclosure and restrictions on use of third parties’
confidential information at
least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 4;
and (b)
“Confidential Information” means
information, data, or materials in
either tangible or intangible form that are trade secrets
of, or proprietary and
confidential to, the Disclosing Party or its affiliates, or
its or their clients or
business partners, including as may be so designated by
statute, regulation, or
common law including by the form of the Uniform Trade
Secrets Act and privacy laws
adopted under applicable law, or which are marked as
“Confidential” or which, by
their nature and the context of their disclosure, should
reasonably be known to be
confidential.
5. FEES, TAXES AND PAYMENT

Section 5 in effect at
the time such Fees become due. Konnektive shall have the
right to increase the Fees
upon the anniversary of this Agreement not to exceed five
percent (5%). Subscriber's
account will be debited with corresponding Fees, and Fees
are calculated by the
number of customers or transactions, whichever is greater
and once Subscriber
reaches a threshold, they may go back one level only when
authorized by management
of Konnektive. Subscriber agrees to not charge back any of
the related Fees
associated with its Account, and any chargebacks will result
in Subscriber paying
associated chargeback fees. Fees do not include applicable
sales, use, value-added,
withholding or excise taxes or government charges all of
which are your
responsibility and payable by you (excluding taxes on our
income).
- 5.2. Method of Payment. Subscriber
agrees and represents that
all information Subscriber provides for the purpose of
enrolling as a Subscriber,
will be accurate, complete, and current. Subscriber

to charge Subscriber’s credit card, charge card, debit card,
bank account direct
debit, or PayPal account, for any and all applicable Fees
associated with
Subscriber’s Account hereunder. Subscriber will provide the
information and
authorization set forth in the credit authorization form set
forth in
Exhibit B. If payment cannot be charged to
Subscriber’s
credit/charge/debit card, for whatever reason, or if there
is a chargeback for any
reason, Konnektive reserves the right to either suspend or
terminate your Use Rights
and Account with Konnektive and the associated Konnektive
Offerings until the
payment is received. If Subscriber provides Konnektive with
a credit card, charge
card, or debit card that expires during the Term, Konnektive
reserves the right to
charge any renewal card issued to Subscriber as a
replacement without any additional
Subscriber consent and charges four percent (4%) for credit
card processing fees
pursuant to Exhibit A and Exhibit
B.
- 5.3. Billing. Konnektive will bill its
monthly licensing and any
recurring Fees on date of enrollment and on the 1st or the
15th of each month. Your
payment date will be determined by the date enrolled. If you
signed up for the
service between the 1st and the 14th, your payment date will
be the 1st. If you
signed up between the 15th and the last day of the month,
your payment date will be
the 15th. Any special programming requests shall be billed
at the time an invoice is
generated and submitted to the Subscriber. Transaction
counts are calculated from
the billing date to the day prior to the next billing
period.
- 5.4. Failure to Make Payment. Fees shall
be due as set forth in
Exhibit A and Exhibit B.
In the event of any
failure by Subscriber to make payment, or upon any

for all reasonable
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by
Konnektive in collecting
such amounts plus interest at the rate of the lesser of one
and one-half percent
(1.5%) per month or the highest rate permissible under

11. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY
SUBSCRIBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
KONNEKTIVE SHALL NOT BE
LIABLE HEREUNDER FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT,
SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR
EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF USE, LOSS
OF BUSINESS, OR LOSS OF
PROFIT OR REVENUE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF
THE FORM OF ACTION WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING
NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR
OTHERWISE), EVEN IF KONNEKTIVE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED
REMEDY. KONNEKTIVE’S
TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY HEREUNDER, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF
ACTION, WILL NOT EXCEED
AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO ALL AMOUNTS ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY KONNEKTIVE
FROM SUBSCRIBER DURING
THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE
INCURRENCE OF ANY SUCH LIABILITY.
THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF THIS PROVISION IS TO LIMIT THE
POTENTIAL LIABILITY OF
KONNEKTIVE ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LIMITATIONS
SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 11 ARE REASONABLE AND ARE INTEGRAL TO
THE AMOUNT OF
CONSIDERATION LEVIED IN CONNECTION WITH SUBSCRIBER’S USE OF THE
KONNEKTIVE OFFERINGS
PROVIDED BY KONNEKTIVE HEREUNDER, AND THAT, WERE KONNEKTIVE TO
ASSUME ANY FURTHER
LIABILITY OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH HEREIN, SUCH CONSIDERATION
WOULD OF NECESSITY BE SET
SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER.

rights hereunder, in
connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its
assets or stock sale, merger

13. NON-COMPETE
Subscriber agrees that during the Term
and for two (2) years
thereafter, Subscriber will not develop, reengineer Konnektive
technology, offer, sell

purpose of offering a

system. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 13, Subscriber shall be
permitted to develop
and utilize a service similar to the Subscription Services
solely for use by Subscriber
in connection with its own marketing activities, except where
Subscriber may pirate,
copy, or reengineer Konnektive technology, functionality or
intellectual property.
Subscriber understands that violation of this clause is grounds
for immediate
termination of the Agreement by Konnektive with no liability on
the part of Konnektive
and further Subscriber understands that Konnektive may seek
equitable relief to stop the
violation and competing activity as well as any other relief
available under the
law.
14. FORCE MAJEURE
With the exception of Subscriber’s
contractual payment of Fees
obligation, neither Party shall be liable for delays or failure
to perform the Services
or the Agreement due to causes beyond its reasonable control.
Such delays include fire,
explosion, flood or other natural catastrophe, governmental
legislation, acts, orders or
regulations, strikes or labor difficulties, to the extent not
occasioned by the fault or
negligence of the delayed Party. Any such excuse for delay shall
last only as long as
the event remains beyond the reasonable control of the delayed
Party. However, the Party
whose performance is so delayed shall use commercially
reasonable, good faith efforts to
minimize the effects of such delay and shall resume performance
as soon as
practicable.

non-exclusive license to use,

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
Parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements or
understandings between the
Parties with respect to such subject matter. This Agreement may
be modified by
Konnektive from time to time at its sole discretion. Each
updated or supplemented
version shall supersede the prior version. No joint venture,
partnership, employment, or
agency relationship exists between you and Konnektive as a
result of this Agreement or
your use of the Konnektive Offerings. It is the express intent
of the Parties that no
Party is an employee of the other Party for any purpose but is
an independent contractor
for all purposes and in all situations. Each Party and its
directors, officers,
employees and agents may not represent that they are employees
of the other Party, nor
may they in any manner hold themselves out to be employees of
the other Party. If any
provision of the Agreement is being determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to
be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will, to such extent
as it is determined to
be invalid or unenforceable, be reformed without further action
by the Parties to the
extent necessary to make the provision valid and enforceable and
no other provision will
be affected or impaired thereby. This Agreement may be executed
in separate counterparts
(each of which is an original and all of which will be deemed
one and the same
instrument). Counterparts may be executed either in original or
faxed form and the
Parties adopt any signatures received by a receiving fax machine
as original signatures
of the Parties. The word “including” is exemplary meaning
“including, without
limitation” or “including, but not limited to” unless otherwise
indicated. The words
“shall,” “will,” and “must” are each intended to be obligatory
