SI Provision of Software Releases of SI Software Sample Clauses

SI Provision of Software Releases of SI Software. The SI acknowledges that the grant of rights included in Section 35 (Intellectual Property) is intended, in part, to ensure that the SI is able to exploit the SI Software (and derivatives of the same) with other SI customers and that the MTA Group benefits from such exploitation by virtue of receiving new features, functionality, and other changes to the SI Software that the SI provides to its other customers. Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the SI shall provide to the MTA, at the SI's sole cost and expense, Updates that constitute Software Releases of SI Software (including Software that the SI develops that has substantially similar functionality or purposes as the SI Software). By way of clarifying example, and not limitation, the SI shall provide to the MTA, at the SI's sole cost and expense, new functionality for SI Software if the SI develops such functionality pursuant to agreements with other parties, and the SI shall incorporate the same into the NFPS (including providing all other Updates necessary to ensure compatibility) at its sole cost and expense, pursuant to this Section 19 (Technical and Software Support Services). To the extent that the SI is prohibited from providing such functionality pursuant to its agreement with other parties, then the SI shall develop the equivalent functionality for the MTA in a manner that does not violate any such third party agreement.
