1. License.

(c) All rights in any Licensed Products furnished by Licensor, or used by Licensee at Licensee's request in connection with any Network, including the copyrights and the right to secure copyrights, shall be Licensor's property throughout the universe and in perpetuity.

The Licensed Products are protected by copyright, trade secret and other intellectual property laws. The Licensor and its licensors, where applicable, own all right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Products (and all intellectual property rights therein), including but not limited to its technology, content, derivatives, and modifications of the Licensed Products by whomever made.

We do not warrant that the functions contained in the Products will meet your requirements or operate in the combination that you may select for use.

5. Term; Termination.
The "Term" of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date, and continue for three (3) years from the Effective Date or three (3) years from any promotional period offered at the start of the service. The Term is divided into three Annual Periods. At the end of each Term, the Term shall automatically renew for an additional three (3) year period unless terminated by either Party as set forth herein.
(b) Licensor shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Licensee if Licensee becomes insolvent, admits in writing its inability to pay debts as they mature, institutes or has instituted against it any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or other proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or dissolution, receivership, or liquidation proceeding (and, if such proceeding is instituted against it, such proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days).
(c) Either Party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party, if the other Party materially breaches in any manner the terms of this Agreement. If the allegedly breaching Party fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days after such notice, termination shall occur as of the 31st day.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything elsewhere herein, Licensor may, at its sole election, require Licensee to cease using any Licensed Products upon forty-eight (48) hours' notice to Licensee (which notice, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail or any other effective method of written communication) (each, a "Take-Down Notice"). Within two (2) business days following Licensee's receipt of such Take-Down Notice, Licensee shall immediately cease to use the applicable items of Licensed Products on or in connection with the Networks. The Parties acknowledge that the purpose of this provision is to defend and protect Licensor's valuable rights in the Licensed Products, and not to otherwise frustrate the purpose of this Agreement or deny Licensee the benefit of the license granted herein under circumstances in which Licensee is without fault or negligence.
(e) Either Party may prevent automatic renewal by giving thirty (30) days or more notice prior to the end of the then-current Term to the other Party of its decision not to renew. The Term shall then expire at the end of the current Term.
(f) Upon termination or expiration of the Term without renewal: (i) all rights granted to Licensee herein shall immediately terminate; (ii) Licensee shall not thereafter have any right to make any use of any Licensed Products; (iii) Licensee shall immediately cease to use the computer files, digital media or software embodying the Licensed Products; (iv) Licensee shall, as instructed by Licensor, return, delete or destroy all Licensed Products delivered to Licensee hereunder promptly upon Licensor's request, in Licensor's sole discretion, and Licensee shall furnish Licensor with a detailed affidavit, in a form satisfactory to Licensor in its sole reasonable discretion, executed by an officer of Licensee evidencing the disposition of each item deleted or destroyed; and (v) all monies then due or to become due to Licensor shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by Licensee.
(g) Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall not affect obligations that: (i) have accrued as of the date of termination or expiration; (ii) arise out of occurrences prior to the termination or expiration date; (iii) become effective upon termination or expiration; or (iv) by their terms continue after termination or expiration.
6. Fees & Taxes.
All payments of Licensing Fees to Licensor under this Agreement shall be made in U.S. dollars by credit card payment, check, wire transfer or ACH to Licensor's account as instructed by Licensor, and shall be made in full by Licensee without any offset or deduction. Non-payment of Licensing Fees is a material breach of this agreement.
(b) Licensing Fees are based on your Video selections and paid annually during the Term. Licensee shall pay Licensor the Licensing Fees for the first Annual Period of service before service begins and subsequent annual payments are made before each Annual Period begins.
(c) Licensee shall pay or reimburse Licensor for all sales, use, transfer, privilege, excise and all other taxes and all duties, whether international, national, state or local, however designated, which are levied or imposed by reason of the performance by Licensor under this Agreement; excluding, however, income taxes on profits which may be levied against Licensor.
(d) If You cancel this service within the first thirty (30) days after purchase of this service and before any files are delivered, You will receive a 100% refund of the Licensing Fees for the service. If You cancel after the first thirty (30) days from purchase of this service or after any files have been delivered, you will not receive any refund, you are still obligated to pay Licensing Fees for all remaining Annual Periods in the Term as they become due, and (forgoing a material breach) you may continue to use the service until your Term expires.
7. Audits.
(a) Upon reasonable notice to Licensee, during the Term and for a period of three (3) years after expiration or termination of this Agreement, Licensor will have the right, at its own expense, to conduct technical audits of the Licensee and the Networks for the purpose of observing and verifying the storage, hosting, security, serving, delivery and other use of the Licensed Products, including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, all hardware and software components and systems utilized by Licensee and its designees that operate or distribute the Networks including server logs, and all documentation setting forth policies and procedures with respect to security features and formats, wherever any such hardware and software components and systems and documentation are maintained or stored, as applicable, including, without limitation, any and all data centers and information technology departments performing services or operations in connection with or on behalf of the Networks.
(b) Any such audit: (i) shall be conducted during normal business hours and in a manner designed to not unreasonably interfere with Licensee's ordinary business operations; (ii) may not occur more frequently than once every twelve (12) months, unless an audit shows a material discrepancy, then no more frequently than once every six (6) months until such time as the results of an audit no longer show a material discrepancy; and (iii) may only cover the period commencing after the period covered by the last audit conducted pursuant to this Article, provided, however, such limitation shall not prevent the review of information related to a prior audit to the extent such information is necessary to conduct a subsequent period audit hereunder.
8. Indemnification.
(a) Licensee agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensor, its directors, officers, employees and agents, and to defend any action brought against same with respect to any claim, demand, cause of action, debt or liability, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent that such action is based upon a claim that arises from or is related to: (i) a breach of any of Licensee's representations or warranties under this Agreement; (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensee or any of its Authorized Facilities; (iii) any assertion by an Authorized Party that Licensee has breached an agreement or any representation or warranty given by Licensee to such Authorized Facility, and/or (iv) any of the content, goods or services provided by Licensee to any Authorized Facility infringes or violates any rights of third parties, recognized under U.S. or applicable state law including, without limitation, rights of publicity, rights of privacy, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and/or licenses.
(b) Licensor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensee, its directors, officers, employees and agents, and to defend any action brought against same with respect to any claim, demand, cause of action, debt or liability, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent such action is based upon a claim that: (i) arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensor; or (ii) any Licensed Product infringes or violates any rights of third parties, recognized under U.S. or applicable state law, including, without limitation, rights of publicity, rights of privacy, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and/or licenses provided, however, that Licensor shall have no obligation to indemnify Licensee in connection with any infringement or interference to the extent that:
(i) Licensee specified the form, content, or functionality of the Licensed Product whose creation or use is alleged to infringe;
(ii) the infringement or interference arises out of, or in connection with, revisions or modifications of the Licensed Product by Licensee, an Authorized Facility or any third party at the authorized direction of Licensee or such Authorized Facility; or
(iii) the infringement or interference arises out of, or in connection with, the combination, operation or use by Licensee, its Authorized Facility or any third party at the authorized direction of Licensee or such Authorized Facility of the Licensed Products with other programs, data, or specifications if a different combination would avoid the infringement or interference.
The indemnification obligation under Article 8(b)(ii) above is limited to Licensor's choice of (1) procuring for Licensee or its Authorized Facility the right to use the Licensed Product free of any infringement liability; or (2) replacing such Licensed Product with a non-infringing substitute substantially fulfilling the same purpose. THIS INDEMNITY IS LICENSOR'S SOLE LIABILITY AND LICENSEE'S AND ITS AUTHORIZED FACILITY'S SOLE REMEDY FOR INFRINGEMENT OF RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES UNDER ARTICLE 8 (b)(ii) ABOVE.
(c) In claiming any indemnification hereunder, the indemnified Party shall promptly provide the indemnifying Party with written notice of any claim which the indemnified Party believes falls within the scope of the foregoing paragraphs. The indemnified Party, at its own expense, may assist in the defense if it so chooses, provided that the indemnifying Party shall control such defense and all negotiations relative to the settlement of any such claim and further provided that any settlement intended to bind the indemnified Party shall not be final without the indemnified Party's written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
9. Limitation of Liability. NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO THAT PARTY'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES EVEN IF SAID PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN ANY EVENT, THE LIABILITY OF LICENSOR TO LICENSEE FOR ANY REASON AND UPON ANY CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED PERCENT (100%) OF THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID TO LICENSOR BY LICENSEE WITHIN THE PRECEDING TWELVE MONTH PERIOD. THIS LIMITATION APPLIES TO ALL CAUSES OF ACTION IN THE AGGREGATE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, MISREPRESENTATIONS AND OTHER TORTS.
