4. Software
Support
(a) Licensor
will provide, on an as-needed basis, upon a written request and purchase order
by Licensee, and during regular business hours, customer support relating to
the
Licensed Products at a rate of $180 per hour per Licensor consultant, plus
reasonable expenses incurred by Licensor, in accordance with Exhibit B, which
is
hereby incorporated by reference. In order to facilitate services pursuant
to
this Section 4, Licensee agrees (i) to cooperate fully with Licensor's
reasonable requests for information, personnel and time necessary to provide

6. Fees
and Payment.
Licensor
shall invoice Licensee on a quarterly basis all per unit fees recorded in the
previous calendar quarter based upon a certified statement from Licensee’s Chief
Financial Officer verifying the number of units shipped, such statement to
be
dispatched electronically to the Licensor no later than the 14th business day
of
the following calendar month.
(1) In
the
event the Licensor disputes the certified number of units sold, Licensee’s
auditor will be requested to recertify the certified statement. If the auditor
certifies the number of units as being true and accurate, the cost of the audit
will be for the account of the Licensor. If the auditor certifies the number
of
units sold as being greater or lesser than the original certified statement,
then the cost of the audit will be for the account of the Licensee.
(b) In
consideration for granting the license rights and services to
be
provided hereunder, Licensee will pay any applicable royalty fees listed on
Exhibit A to this Agreement. All royalty fee payments are due thirty (30)
calendar days after receipt by Licensee of electronic invoice. Minimum value
of
each invoice is USD 1,000. In case the minimum invoice amount is not reached
in
one month, the due amount shall be accumulated until the minimum amount is
reached. Payments are to be made by wire transfer without deduction for bank
charges or other deductions of any kind whatsoever. Past due amounts will bear
interest of the then-prevailing prime lending rate as determined by the Bank
of
America NA plus 1.5% (one and one-half percent) per month or part thereof,
from
the due date until receipt of payment by Licensor.
(c) If
amounts remain unpaid for fifteen (15) days or more beyond the due date,
Licensor may, at its option, terminate the License, and refuse to perform
additional Services. Licensee agrees to pay all reasonable costs and fees
incurred by Licensor in collecting any unpaid amounts. All payments made
hereunder are nonrefundable.
(d) As
further set forth in Section 4 above, Licensee agrees to reimburse Licensor
for
all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Licensor incurs in providing Service,
but
not limited to, economy transportation costs, airfare, rental vehicles, lodging,
meals, and incidental charges.
(e) Licensee
shall be responsible for all taxes (including sales, use, property, excise,
value added and gross receipts but not including taxes based on Licensor’s net
income) levied on Software, and/or Services, training and maintenance provided
under this Agreement. Upon request from Licensee, Licensor agrees to assist
Licensee in qualifying for tax exemption at no additional cost. Licensee agrees
that if any of the foregoing is paid by Licensor, Licensee shall reimburse
Licensor for the amount paid.
7. Proprietary
Rights.
(a) The
Licensed Software, to which access is provided under this Agreement, has
substantial monetary value and has patent, copyrighted and proprietary material
of Licensor. The Software contains trade secrets; inventions, ideas, data,
source and object codes, and other works of authorship protected by copyright
and trade secret laws, and may be the subject of one or more pending patent
applications or issued patents.
6
(b) Upon
knowledge of any unauthorized possession or use of, or access to, any Software
licensed hereunder, Licensee shall notify Licensor as soon as possible. Licensee
shall promptly furnish Licensor with full details of such situation, assist,
at
Licensor’s expense, in preventing any recurrence thereof, and cooperate, at
Licensor's expense, in any litigation or other proceedings reasonably necessary
to protect the intellectual property rights of Licensor and its
sublicensors.
8. Mutual
Nondisclosure.
(a) Confidential
Information shall mean the (i) Licensed Products and (ii) other information
of
the parties when it is presented in printed, written, graphic, or photographic
or other tangible form (but including information received, stored or
transmitted electronically) and marked as “confidential” or “proprietary” by the
disclosing party. Confidential Information also includes information of the
parties, when presented in oral form, that is summarized as written minutes
or
notes of such oral presentations and which are marked “confidential" or
“proprietary” and provided to recipient within thirty (30) days after the date
of disclosure.
(b) Pursuant
to this Agreement, each party (the "Discloser") may, from time to time, furnish
the other party to this Agreement (the “Recipient”) with certain Confidential
Information. Recipient will use at least the same care to avoid disclosure
of
such Confidential Information as it uses with its own similar confidential
information which it does not wish to disclose, but such standard of care shall
not be less than a reasonable standard of care. The Confidential Information,
including any trade secret, confidential or proprietary information contained
within the Confidential Information, is not to be disclosed to any persons
other
than the employees of Recipient. Confidential Information may, however, be
disclosed to counsel and consultants of the Recipient who have a need to know
and have been instructed that it is Confidential Information. Recipient shall
be
liable for any unauthorized use or disclosure of Discloser’s Confidential
Information by Recipient’s employees, counsel or consultants.
(c) The
nondisclosure obligations of Recipient with respect to any particular portion
of
Confidential Information shall terminate (or shall not attach) when any of
the
following occurs:
(1) It
was in
the public domain at the time of Discloser's communication to
Recipient.
(2) It
entered the public domain through no fault of Recipient subsequent to the time
of Discloser's communication to Recipient.
(3) It
was in
Recipient's possession free of any obligation of confidence at the time of
Discloser's communication to Recipient.
(4) Its
disclosure is required by law, valid subpoena, or court or government order,
provided, however, that Recipient provides prompt notice of such required
disclosure and Recipient shall have made a reasonable effort to obtain a
protective order or other reliable assurance affording it confidential treatment
and limiting its use solely for the purpose for which the law or order
requires.
7
(d) The
parties agree that a breach of the confidentiality obligations by Recipient
shall cause immediate and irreparable monetary damage to Discloser and shall
entitle Discloser to injunctive relief in addition to all other
remedies.
9. Warranties

(a) Licensor
cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the Software thereof, and
provides the software to Licensee’s customers on an “AS

REQUIREMENTS OF THE
LICENSEE’S CUSTOMER,
THAT THE
OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR FREE OF
DEFECTS
OR VIRUS
FREE OR THAT DEFECTS IN THE SOFTWARE WILL BE CORRECTED. FURTHER, AIRBEE DOES
NOT
WARRANT OR MAKE ANY CONDITIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE USE OR THE
RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE IN TERMS OF ITS CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY,
RELIABILITY OR OTHERWISE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY

ANY
WAY EXTEND THE SCOPE OF THE “AS IS” PROVISION OF THE SOFTWARE. This section
shall survive the termination or expiry of this Agreement.
(c) LICENSOR
WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE (i)

Licensor
shall indemnify, defend or hold Licensee harmless from and against any loss,

or
other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect
to the Licensed Products.
Licensee
shall not be held responsible for unauthorized use of the firmware (executable
code distributed in modules or for field upgrades) through illegal copying
or by
other means circumventing the code protection by third parties.

HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
The
limitations set forth in this section shall apply even if any other remedies
fail of their essential purpose.

Law & Venue.
This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance to the laws of the
State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law provisions thereof.

is
the case with improper disclosure of Confidential Information, the other party
may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice of termination.

(c) Termination
of this Agreement, or any portion of it, shall not limit either party from
pursuing other remedies available to it, including injunctive relief. Such
