Section 1. Definitions. Unless specifically stated otherwise, for the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall be defined as follows:
Software as a Service (SaaS).
A ‘subscription’ based software licensing mechanism, independent of software delivery methodology, wherein the End User of the software enters into a Subscription Agreement in order to use the software for as long as the licensee pays a defined subscription fee. This eliminates the need for a capital investment as in the traditional software license purchase.
Territory:
The LICENSEE is licensed to market the software products and services listed in this Agreement exclusively as long as the terms and conditions of this Agreement are in force.
End User.
An End User may be an individual or corporate entity who uses the software and is responsible for the data generated and/or stored within the files maintained by the software. There may several End Users according to the terms of the Subscription Software License, each identified by a Login and Password.
Licensed Materials.
Licensed Materials shall mean the Software, User’s Manual and such other documentation as is generally provided, in written and electronic medium, by SureQuest for use with the Software.
Maintenance.
Changes to the Software that SureQuest deems necessary to maintain and enhance its performance.
Technical and User Support. SureQuest shall provide each client using the ThreeSquares software product(s) toll free telephone User and Technical Support to the licensed users of the ThreeSquares software. SureQuest personnel will be available for Support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Support personnel will be directly available Monday to Friday during the hours of 8:00 a.m. through 5:30 p.m. Central Time, excluding SureQuest declared holidays. At all other days and times, such personnel will be available via pager. Response time to a page generally will not exceed ninety (90) minutes. Follow-up response to non-critical “downs” will be less than twelve (12) hours or the next business day.

The Software which is the subject of this Agreement is defined as SureQuest’s On Demand software programs listed below:
| · | ThreeSquares® OnDemand Food Service Management System |
| · | SureRecipes™ |
| · | SureMenus ™ |
| · | SureAssess™, Nutritional Assessment Module |
| · | SureLink™, Data Interface with 3rd Party Patient Information System |
Refer to Schedule 1: “Software Product & Pricing”
Section 2. Summary of Business Relationship. LICENSEE and SureQuest hereby enter into a five (5) year business relationship, which shall be deemed to begin on the date of acceptance of this Agreement by the parties and continue through and including ____________unless terminated earlier as provided below in Section 19. This Agreement provides that LICENSEE may provide its clients with ThreeSquares Software as a Service on a subscription fee basis. SureQuest will train LICENSEE personnel, pursuant to this Agreement, in the presentation of the software’s features, advantages and benefits to the client in order to facilitate the placement of the software as part of LICENSEE’s client services.
Section 3. ThreeSquares® and Other Services. SureQuest hereby agrees to provide the following Software, Technical Support, Maintenance, and Training to LICENSEE and LICENSEE hereby agrees to pay for such products and services as outlined in Schedule 1. SureQuest will provide a Subscription Software License for ThreeSquares software and selected modules to LICENSEE clients as ordered and directed by LICENSEE according to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Training.
LICENSEE agrees that proper Training is necessary in order for the client to receive the maximum use and effectiveness from the Software. SureQuest agrees to provide each LICENSEE client using the ThreeSquares software with a training program consisting of both on-site and internet sessions as appropriate to the software configuration (modules) ordered and as outlined in Schedule 4: Products and Pricing, in this Agreement. The training will be performed by a SureQuest Certified Trainer. Unless otherwise instructed by LICENSEE.
Licensed Materials. Each Software Subscription license acquired shall include one (1) copy of the Licensed Material. Additional manuals may be purchased for One Hundred Fifty Dollars ($150) each.
Section 4. Resale Licenses. SureQuest agrees to allow LICENSEE to place SureQuest Software under SureQuest’s normal terms and conditions for Software Subscription licensing.
Section 5. Payments and Terms. LICENSEE agrees to pay the Software Subscription Fee for the software delivered to LICENSEE clients according to the terms set forth in Schedule 1: Products and Pricing. SureQuest will invoice LICENSEE the first of each month for the number of Software Subscriptions then in effect, providing a detail of the Software Subscription placements in use. All invoices are due net 10 days. Payments due SureQuest pursuant to this, Section 5, of the Agreement which are not received on time are subject to and will be assessed late charges equal to one and one half (1.5%) percent per month calculated daily from the due date of the invoice. Failure to make timely payment for the SureQuest Software or for additional SureQuest services may result, in SureQuest’s sole discretion, in terminating such services without violating this Agreement. SureQuest agrees, however, not to terminate such services unless it shall have first given written notice to LICENSEE of the default in payment and full payment (including any late charges) is not made within ten (10) days from the date of such notice.
Section 6. Licensee Termination. Both SureQuest and LICENSEE agree that from time to time LICENSEE may terminate its relationship with a client for any reason. If that termination occurs within the first 12 months of the subscription period, LICENSEE shall provide SureQuest with assistance to switch the Subscription Fee invoicing directly to the licensee or LICENSEE will continue to pay the Subscription Fee for that licensee for the balance of the first 12 month Subscription Period. If the licensee assumes the responsibility for the Subscription Fee or the licensee has ceased to do business in general, LICENSEE shall have no further responsibility for the Fees due.
Section 7. License. All licenses for the Software, the Licensed Materials and other software discussed herein (the “Licensed Property”) are non-exclusive licenses and are limited to be used pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement does not create in LICENSEE or any LICENSEE client, any ownership or title rights to the Licensed Property. LICENSEE further agrees not to network multiple users on a single licensed software.
Section 8. Hardware. In order for LICENSEE’s licensees to receive full benefit from, and to allow SureQuest to provide the appropriate Software support, it is necessary that LICENSEE assure that its licensees have appropriate hardware. Schedule 3 lists the appropriate hardware, back-up, printer specifications and UPS requirements which are currently necessary for the Software. The parties agree that hardware specifications may change in the future to accommodate updated software and that LICENSEE and its licensees may have to upgrade hardware and/or operating systems in these instances.
Section 9. Licensee Information. In order for SureQuest to know which licensees are using the Software pursuant to this Agreement, LICENSEE shall complete the appropriate order forms provided by SureQuest for each Subscription Software License ordered and all documentation shall be complete prior to activation of the Software. Each LICENSEE client subscribing to the Software as a Service will sign a Software Subscription License Agreement to which LICENSEE the Client and SureQuest will be a party. A copy of the Software Subscription License Agreement is attached as Schedule 4 to this Agreement.

Minimum specifications for software will change from year to year as new technology comes to market. As software is developed and maintained it must be kept compatible with the hardware and operating systems that are current and supported by the manufacturer. SureQuest recommends Windows® operating systems that have the full support of Microsoft® and meet the specifications of our operating platform. Since hardware is expensive, we take a conservative approach towards adopting new operating systems as they come to market. We reserve the right and the time to test our software on newly released operating platforms before we offer to support them. As with any software product, check with the vendor for compatibility before upgrading hardware.
