Customer Responsibility Post Go-Live
After a given Ascendon System deployment has been deployed into the Production Environment, Customer is principally responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of such deployment, including, by way of example only, Storefront changes, refreshing or adding new Customer Content and Merchandise, encoding or transcoding Customer Content, continued product and pricing configuration, syndication and marketing services. In Customer’s sole and absolute discretion, Customer may discharge such responsibility itself, through a Customer Vendor (subject to the applicable limitations set forth in this EXHIBIT A-6) or by requesting CSG to provide such support. CSG shall provide support, including, without limitation, the Ascendon Professional Services or ***, to Customer: (i) pursuant to an Ascendon SOW entered into by the parties; and/or (ii) following a request made by Customer in writing.
Customer Integrations and Third Party Modifications
If any of (a) Customer’s Integrations, or (b) CSG Integrations made by CSG under a mutually agreed Ascendon SOW to a Customer System or Third Party System (collectively, a “Third Party Integration”) requires modification due to a change in the Customer Integration, Customer System or Third Party System as a result of one of Customer, its Affiliates, Customer Vendor or other agent of Customer (a “Third Party Modification”), then CSG shall have no obligation to maintain or support the affected Third Party Integration as a result of such Third Party Modification. Under such circumstances, Customer may request, and CSG shall perform, Ascendon Professional Services to remedy such Third Party Modification pursuant to an Ascendon SOW executed by the parties setting forth the scope of such Ascendon Professional Services and related fees payable to CSG. In addition, if a Third Party Modification causes a Service Interruption or otherwise causes an Ascendon Service to no longer operate in compliance with an Ascendon SOW or the Documentation, Customer acknowledges that CSG shall have no liability to Customer under the terms of the Agreement, this EXHIBIT A-6 or an Ascendon SOW with respect to any breach or non-compliance caused by such Third Party Modification. CSG acknowledges however that once a Third Party Integration is restored after a Third Party Modification, CSG’s obligations under the Agreement, this EXHIBIT A-6 and any affected Ascendon SOW shall recommence. CSG further acknowledges that a Third Party Modification shall not be deemed a breach of Customer’s obligations under the Agreement, this EXHIBIT A-6 or an Ascendon SOW; such Third Party Modification will only relieve and limit CSG’s responsibilities and liability as provided in the Agreement, this EXHIBIT A-6 and an affected Ascendon SOW. The parties acknowledge that if a Third Party Integration requires modification due to an Ascendon Update of the Ascendon System, such modification shall not be deemed a Third Party Modification, and CSG shall promptly make such modification and restore the Third Party Integration at no additional charge to Customer.
The rights, obligations and restrictions in this Section 6 are exclusive to the provision of Services under this EXHIBIT A-6 and the terms of Section 12 - License Grant of the Agreement are not applicable to the provision of Services under this EXHIBIT A-6 (provided that the definition of the term “Affiliate” shall nevertheless continue to have the definition set forth in such Section 12).

Customer acknowledges that except as specifically requested by Customer and provided in an Ascendon SOW executed by the parties, the Ascendon SaaS Services do not include any digital rights management content protection or license delivery and management services (“DRM”), content delivery network (“CDN”) services, signal capture or encoding/transcoding of Customer Content, and that, as between CSG and Customer, Customer is responsible (directly or through a third-party designee) to provide DRM, CDN services, and encoding/transcoding for its Customer Content.
b. Restrictions.

Customer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid posting or transmitting into the Ascendon System any software or Customer Content that contains a virus. Customer shall be responsible for the improper use or disclosure of any of Customer’s unique access codes by Customer’s employees, Qualified Third Party Contractors or any third party that accesses the Ascendon System through the Customer’s unique access codes. Customer will not be responsible for any third party access resulting from the acts or omissions of CSG, Media, CSG’s other agents or another CSG client.
c. Web Services Validation. Customer will comply with the Ascendon Web Services Standards. As used herein, “Ascendon Web Services Standards” mean those rules, specifications and standards that relate to Customer’s use of the Ascendon Web Services to integrate with the Ascendon System, as referenced in the Documentation.

Confidential Treatment Requested and the Redacted Material has been separately filed with the Commission. |
a. Each Ascendon SOW executed by the parties pursuant to this EXHIBIT A-6 shall specify an “Ascendon Order Term” (as defined in each such Ascendon SOW) and will continue in full force and effect, until such Ascendon SOW expires in accordance with its terms or is terminated earlier pursuant to the Agreement.
b. The parties agree that upon expiration of the Agreement, CSG’s provision and performance, and Customers’ use and receipt, of the Ascendon System and Ascendon SaaS Services will terminate following any applicable Termination Assistance Period as provided in Section 9 below of this EXHIBIT A-6.
Solely with respect to the Ascendon System and the Ascendon SaaS Services, in lieu of the provisions of Section 20 of the Agreement, the following provisions shall apply to Termination Assistance:
Upon expiration or termination of an Ascendon SOW for any reason, CSG shall, upon Customer’s reasonable written request, provide to Customer for up to *** ******* ****** (***) **** (the “Termination Assistance Period”), all reasonably requested assistance and cooperation to transfer and transition to Customer (or Customer’s designee if applicable) Customer Content, Consumer Information, Consumer Usage Data and Customer’s Intellectual Property in CSG’s possession or as compiled by the Ascendon System as of the date of expiration or termination. If Customer requests that CSG provide the foregoing information in a form different than that held by CSG in the Ascendon System, or requests CSG to perform any other services to Customer to transition Customer’s Consumer offering beyond the return of the foregoing information (collectively, the “Ascendon Termination Assistance”), Customer acknowledges that such Ascendon Termination Assistance may be provided by CSG at its discretion, for the Professional Services fees provided in Section V. under CSG SERVICES of SCHEDULE F of the Agreement and the parties will enter into a separate Ascendon SOW or other agreement to document the specific Ascendon Termination Assistance to be provided, the specific Termination Assistance Period and the applicable fees. Customer acknowledges that conditions precedent to CSG’s performance of Ascendon Termination Assistance are Customer’s obligations to pay CSG any Undisputed Fees related to the Ascendon SaaS Services or other amounts outstanding, due or payable to CSG with respect to the Ascendon SaaS Services as of the date (or as a result) of the expiration or termination of the relevant Ascendon SOW.
10. Customer Additional Obligations
a. Records to Support Third Party Product Fees
Customer acknowledges that certain Consumer Experiences utilized by Customer pursuant to an Ascendon SOW that incorporate certain Third Party Products (e.g., Mobile DRM Porting Kit and DRM server licenses) require the payment by CSG of a royalty and/or other fees to the licensor of such Third Party Product (“Third Party Licensor”). Consumer Experiences that incorporate a Third Party Product for which CSG must pay a royalty or fee to a Third Party Licensor are referred to herein as “Royalty-Bearing Applications”, and any applicable royalties or fees payable on a Royalty-Bearing Application will be identified in Section XV. under CSG SERVICES of SCHEDULE F of the Agreement or an Ascendon SOW. For the avoidance of doubt, a Royalty Bearing Application relates only to royalties or fees applicable to Consumer Experiences, and does not relate to the download of Customer Content. If the information that substantiates the obligation to pay a fee or royalty in connection with a Royalty Bearing Application is held or accessible by Customer and not CSG (e.g., application store downloads), to evidence royalties and fees which must be paid in connection with such Royalty-Bearing Applications Customer shall provide CSG within ******* (**) **** of the end of each calendar ******* a report of the requisite activity that triggers such fees or royalty including, if applicable, any application stores, payable during such calendar ******* from and through Customer and its Affiliates. ********* reports and all other records provided by Customer to CSG under this section shall be deemed Confidential Information and subject to Section 21 of the Agreement; provided nothing shall limit CSG’s right to provide such ********* reports and other applicable records to a Third Party Licensor or its administrative agent for the sole purpose of evidencing any applicable royalties or fees payable on a Royalty-Bearing Application.

If an Ascendon SOW includes Customer’s use of a Consumer Experience such as an iOS or Android native application or a Licensed Client SDK for iOS or Android on which Customer will develop a Customer Application, and Customer intends to distribute the application through an application store (an “App Store Application”), such as iTunes, the Android Marketplace, Google Play Store, or similar site at which the App Store Application may be downloaded by a Consumer (an “App Store”), then Customer, with the assistance of and in collaboration with CSG, is responsible (i) to submit to each App Store for approval the App Store Application that includes Customer Content and (ii) for any approval fees required by such App Stores (or their approvers) in connection with such approval. Customer further acknowledges that if Customer develops a Customer Application without use of a Licensed Client SDK, Customer shall be solely responsible to submit such Customer Application to the App Store for approval, and any assistance provided by CSG in such regard shall be subject to an Ascendon SOW.
11. Ascendon System Ownership and Customer Content or Merchandise Rights
The Ascendon System, all Ascendon Services and, unless otherwise expressly provided otherwise in an Ascendon SOW, all Deliverables delivered by CSG under an Ascendon SOW, are “Software Products.” In addition, the parties acknowledge that CSG shall own the Ascendon System Usage Data. With respect to any Customer Content and Merchandise that Customer provides to CSG for use, scaling, publication, display, distribution and processing through the Ascendon System, including Customer Content and Merchandise owned by Customer or by a person other than Customer (the “Third Party Content Owner”), Customer warrants that it owns or has the necessary rights from third parties, including any Third Party Content Owner, to use, scale, publish, display, distribute and sell such Customer Content and Merchandise through the Ascendon System and for CSG to perform any of the foregoing acts (e.g., publication, display, distribution and/or processing) on behalf of Customer solely in the event and to the extent that Customer expressly directs CSG to perform any such acts or as provided in an Ascendon SOW. CSG shall not obtain any ownership rights to the Customer Content or Merchandise provided by Customer pursuant to the Agreement. In no event shall CSG lease, sell or otherwise commercially exploit any Consumer Information or Consumer Usage Data.
CSG acknowledges and agrees that (a) CSG’s, Media’s and/or any of their Affiliates’ or agents’ use of the Customer Content and/or Merchandise shall at all times be subject to and solely pursuant to the express, written approval of Customer, which approval Customer may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion for any reason or no reason, (b) Customer may at any time and from time to time and in Customer’s sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, upon notice to CSG, without the need for any consent, written or otherwise, from CSG, (i) change, alter, delete, add to or otherwise modify the Customer Content and/or Merchandise and (ii) stop CSG’s, Media’s or any of their Affiliates’ or agents’ use of any or all of the Customer Content and/or Merchandise, and (c) CSG shall, and shall cause Media and/or any of their Affiliates or agents to, comply with the terms of such notice as soon as reasonably possible.
The provisions of this EXHIBIT A-6 are not intended to create, nor shall they be construed as creating or otherwise providing any rights to CSG, Media or any of their Affiliates or agents to purchase or sell products or programming manufactured and/or distributed or otherwise made available by Customer and/or any of its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, Customer Content or Merchandise. CSG expressly recognizes and agrees that any goodwill now existing or hereafter created through any use of the Customer Content or Merchandise or any related services performed in association therewith shall inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of Customer and/or its Affiliates and licensors.
CSG shall immediately cease using and within a reasonable time destroy or purge, and shall cause Media, its Affiliates and other agents to cease using and destroy or purge, the Customer Content and/or Merchandise upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason or no reason whatsoever and shall, upon written request by Customer, certify such cessation and destruction or purging of the data to Customer.

The fees applicable to Customer’s access to and use and CSG’s provision of the Ascendon System and provision and performance of the Ascendon SaaS Services shall be set forth in either (a) an Ascendon SOW executed by Customer and CSG or (b) Section XV. under CSG SERVICES of SCHEDULE F of the Agreement, with specific reference in the applicable Ascendon SOW as to which such fees apply. In addition, if as identified in an Ascendon SOW an Ascendon Service is integrated or made available with a Product or Service that is not the Ascendon System or Ascendon Services, the fees may also be included in another section of SCHEDULE F of the Agreement that corresponds to such Product or Service that is not the Ascendon System or Ascendon Services.
