If Customer subscribes to an additional Subscription Service, the Subscription Term for that Subscription Service will begin on the Subscription Start Date for that Subscription Service and Customer will be separately invoiced for the applicable activation and Subscription Service fee for the additional Subscription Service.
8.5. Refund of Prepaid Subscription Fees if Customer Terminates for Breach. If Customer terminates this Agreement or any Sales Order for breach in accordance with Section 8.2 above, then Gluu will refund to Customer a pro-rata amount of any affected Subscription Services fees prepaid to Gluu and applicable to the unutilized portion of the Subscription Term for terminated Subscription Services, and any affected unutilized Professional Services fees prepaid to Gluu.

Following any termination of the Agreement or any Sales Order, each party will, within 30 days of such termination, (i) immediately cease use of any Confidential Information of the other communicated for the purposes of this Agreement or such Sales Order, and (ii) return or destroy (and certify destruction of) all copies of any Confidential Information of the other party disclosed under the Agreement or such Sales Order within 30 days of such termination, subject to Section 7.1.4 and each party’s customary backup and archival processes.
8.8. Suspension. Gluu may suspend Customer’s or any User’s right to access or use any portion of the Subscription Services, or to connect the Gluu Platform to Customer Third Party Applications, if Gluu determines that Customer’s or Users’ use of the Subscription Services, or Customer Third Party Applications, (i) pose a security risk to the Subscription Services or any third party, (ii) may adversely impact the Subscription Services, or the networks or data of any other Gluu customer, business partner or service provider, (iii) do not comply with the AUP or applicable law, or (iv) may subject Gluu or any third party to liability. Gluu will endeavor to provide as much notice as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances, and to reinstate the Subscription Services as soon as reasonably practicable following correction of the issue.
8.9. Survival. The provisions of Sections 1, 3.3-3.4, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6, 6, 7, 8.5-8.9, 9-11 and 14 of this Agreement will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
9. Indemnification
9.1. Gluu’s Infringement Indemnification.
9.1.1. Defense and Indemnity. If any third party makes any claim against Customer that, if true, would constitute a Gluu Infringement (defined in Section 5.1.4) then, upon notification of such claim, Gluu will, at its sole cost and expense, defend Customer against such claim and any related proceeding brought by such third party against Customer, and indemnify Customer from and against all damages, fines and penalties finally awarded against Customer or agreed to be paid by Customer in a written settlement approved in writing by Gluu, and resulting from the Gluu Infringement. Gluu’s obligations under this Section 9.1.1 are subject to Customer’s compliance with the “Indemnification Conditions” (defined below). “Indemnification Conditions” means the following conditions with which a party must comply in order to be entitled to defense or indemnification under the Agreement by the other party: (i) the indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing of any claim that might be the subject of indemnification promptly after any executive officer of the indemnified party or member of the indemnified party’s legal department first knows of the claim, provided, however, that no failure to so notify an indemnifying party will relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices defense of the claim, and except to the extent of damages incurred by the indemnifying party as a result of the delay; (ii) the indemnifying party is given primary control over the defense and settlement of the claim (subject to the foregoing, the indemnified party may nonetheless participate in the defense at its sole cost and expense); (iii) the indemnified party makes no admission of liability (except as required by applicable law) nor enters into any settlement without the indemnifying party’s prior written agreement (not to be unreasonably withheld); (iv) the indemnified party provides such assistance in defense of the proceeding as the indemnifying party may reasonably request, at the indemnifying party’s reasonable expense; (v) the indemnified party complies with any court order or reasonable settlement made in connection with the proceeding; and (vi) the indemnified party uses all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its losses.
9.1.2. Gluu’s Mitigation Rights. If any Subscription Services become (or in Gluu’s opinion are likely to become) the subject of any infringement or misappropriation claim, Gluu may, and if Customer’s use of the Subscription Services is enjoined, Gluu must, at its sole expense, either: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the relevant Subscription Services; (ii) replace or modify the relevant Subscription Services in a functionally equivalent manner so that they no longer infringe; or (iii) terminate the applicable Sales Order or Customer’s rights to use affected Subscription Services, and refund to Customer a pro-rata amount of any subscription fees prepaid to Gluu and applicable to the unutilized portion of the Subscription Term for the terminated Subscription Services.
9.1.3. Exclusions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gluu will have no obligation with respect to any infringement or misappropriation claim to the extent based upon (i) any use of the Subscription Services not in accordance with their applicable license rights, (ii) the combination of the Subscription Services with other products, equipment, software, services or data not supplied by Gluu where the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, (iii) Gluu’s compliance with Customer’s specifications, configuration requirements, or other instructions (except to the extent that Gluu knew that such compliance would infringe a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights), (iv) any use of any version of any Gluu Platform or Supplemental Materials other than the most current version made available to Customer after notice from Gluu that Customer must upgrade to such release to avoid an infringement or misappropriation claim and Customer has had a reasonable time in which to implement such upgrade, (v) any modification of the Subscription Services not made by Gluu or its subcontractors, or at its or their express direction, or (vi) any Customer Materials.
9.2. Customer’s Infringement Indemnification.
9.2.1. Defense and Indemnity. If any third party makes any claim against Gluu that Gluu’s use of any Customer Materials infringes any third party patent existing under the laws of the United States, Canada, any member state of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Brazil, South Korea, India or Japan, or infringes or violates any third party copyright, trademark, service mark, privacy right or data protection right, or results from any misappropriation by Customer of such third party’s trade secrets or privacy rights (collectively, a “Customer Infringement”) then, upon notification of such claim, Customer will, at its sole cost
and expense, defend Gluu against such claim and any related proceeding brought by such third party against Customer, and Customer will indemnify Gluu from and against all damages, fines and penalties finally awarded against Gluu or agreed to be paid by Gluu in a written settlement approved in writing by Customer, and resulting from the Customer Infringement. Customer’s obligations under this Section 9.2.1 are subject to Gluu’s compliance with the Indemnification Conditions.
9.2.2. Mitigation Rights. If provision of Customer Materials is, or in Customer’s reasonable opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property right of any third party, then Customer will have the right to: (i) procure the rights necessary for Customer to continue to provide Customer’s Materials; (ii) replace or modify the Customer Materials in a functionally equivalent manner so that they no longer infringe; or, if the options described in (i) and (ii) above are not available to Customer on commercially reasonable terms, (iii) terminate Gluu’s rights to use the Customer Materials (in which case Gluu’s obligations to
perform the Services will be reduced to the extent that Gluu required the Customer Materials to perform, and any such termination will be treated as a termination for convenience by Customer).
9.2.3. Exclusions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer will have no obligation under this Section 9.2 or otherwise with respect to any infringement or misappropriation claim to the extent based upon (i) any use of the Customer Materials not in accordance with this Agreement and their applicable license rights notified by Customer to Gluu, (ii) combination of the Customer Materials with other products, equipment, software, services or data not supplied by Customer where the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, but excluding combination with any Gluu Platform, (iii) Customer’s compliance with Gluu’s specifications or instructions, (iv) any use of any version of any Customer Materials other than the most current version made available to Gluu after notice from Customer that Gluu must upgrade to such release to avoid an infringement or misappropriation claim and Gluu has had a reasonable time in which to implement such upgrade, (v) any modification of the Customer Materials not made by Customer or at its express direction, or (vi) any data processed by the Customer Materials that Customer or its Users have not provided, made available, or required Gluu to use or access.
9.3. Improper Use of Gluu Platform. Customer will indemnify and hold Gluu harmless from any claims, damages, losses, judgments, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with any non-compliance by Customer or its Users with the Acceptable Use Policy.
10. Limitations and Exclusions of Liability
10.1. Exclusion of Certain Claims. SUBJECT TO SECTION 10.3, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE (INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF DATA, GOODWILL, REVENUE OR PROFITS), EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, ARISING OUT OF (i) THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT, OR ANY SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER, OR (ii) ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION, BREACH OF CONTRACT OR ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RELATED AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, MISREPRESENTATION, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER TORT.
10.2. Limitation of Liability. Subject to Section 10.3, neither party’s maximum aggregate liability arising out of this Agreement or any related agreement will in any event exceed the fees paid to Gluu under the Sales Order giving rise to the claim during the 12 month period immediately preceding the aggrieved party’s first assertion of any claim against the other, regardless of whether any action or claim is based in contract, misrepresentation, warranty, indemnity, negligence, strict liability or other tort or otherwise.
10.3. Exceptions. Sections 10.1 and 10.2 do not apply to either party’s (i) willful misconduct or gross negligence, (ii) infringement or misappropriation of any of the other’s Intellectual Property Rights, or (iii) liability or loss which may not be limited by applicable law. Any amounts payable by an indemnified party to a third party pursuant to a judgment or to a settlement agreement approved in writing by an indemnifying party, liability for which falls within the indemnifying party’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, and all fees payable by Customer under this Agreement, will be deemed direct damages for purposes of this Section 10. Section 10.2 does not apply to (i) each party’s defense and indemnification obligations, (ii) Customer’s obligations to pay fees and expenses when due and payable under this Agreement, nor (iii) either party’s obligations under Section 6 (Confidential Information) or Section 7 (Data Protection), provided, however, that except to the extent of willful misconduct or gross negligence of Gluu, Gluu’s maximum aggregate liability under Section 7 will not exceed two times (2X) the fees paid by Customer to Gluu under the affected Sales Order in the 12 month period immediately preceding Customer’s first assertion of its claim.
10.4. Free Trial. With respect to any Free Trial, Gluu’s aggregate liability will in no event exceed one hundred US dollars, regardless of any theory of liability, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including Sections 10.1-10.3.
10.5. General. Customer agrees that these exclusions and limitations apply even if the remedies are insufficient to cover all of the losses or damages of Customer or its Affiliates, or fail of their essential purpose and that without these limitations the fees for the Services would be significantly higher. Neither party may commence any action or proceeding under this Agreement more than two years after the occurrence of the applicable cause of action.
11. Dispute Resolution
11.1. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas and, where such laws are preempted by the laws of the United States, by the internal laws of the United States, in each case without regard to (i) conflicts of laws principles, and (ii) the applicability, if any, of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
11.2. Venue and Jurisdiction. In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, or the breach or interpretation thereof, the parties will submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the State courts of Texas located in Austin, or the Federal District Court for the Western District of Texas, and appeal courts therefrom. Each party hereby waives all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens. Process may be served on either party in the manner authorized by applicable law or court rule.
11.3. Legal Expenses. If any proceeding is brought by either party to enforce or interpret any term or provision of this Agreement, the substantially prevailing party in such proceeding will be entitled to recover, in addition to all other relief arising out of this Agreement, such party’s reasonable attorneys’ and other experts’ (including without limitation accountants) fees and expenses.

13. Purchase Through Channel Partners
13.1. Applicability. This section 13 only applies to Customer’s purchasing Services through a Channel Partner. If Customer is uncertain as to the applicability of this section to its purchase of Services, Customer should contact Gluu for further information.
13.2. Channel Partners. If Customer acquired the Services from a Channel Partner, then this Agreement is not exclusive of any rights Customer obtains under the Channel Partner Sale Agreement; however, if there is any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Channel Partner Sale Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement prevail. If a Channel Partner has granted Customer any rights that Gluu does not also directly grant to Customer in this Agreement, or that conflict with this Agreement, then Customer’s sole recourse with respect to such rights is against the Channel Partner.
13.3. Term and Renewal. If Customer ordered the Services through a Channel Partner, then Section 8.4 is inapplicable, and the Subscription Term will begin on the Subscription Start Date and, subject to the remainder of Section 8, it will expire, renew and terminate in accordance with the terms of the Channel Partner Sale Agreement.
13.4. Fees and Payment. If Customer ordered the Services through a Channel Partner, then the provisions of Section 4.1 – 4.5 do not apply to Customer, and Customer’s billing and payment rights and obligations are governed by the Channel Partner Sale Agreement. However, if the Channel Partner from whom Customer purchased the Services fails to pay Gluu any amounts due in connection with Customer’s use of the Services, then Gluu may suspend Customer’s rights to use the Services without liability, upon notice to Customer. Customer agrees that Customer’s remedy in the event of such suspension is solely against the Channel Partner.
14. Miscellaneous Provisions
14.1. Affiliates. This Agreement sets forth the general terms and conditions under which Gluu will provide Services to Customer and its Affiliates. Sales Orders may be entered into under this Agreement by either the entity designated above as “Customer” or any of Customer’s Affiliates. The entity that executes a Sales Order in the position of services recipient will be considered the “Customer” for all purposes of the Sales Order; and the Sales Order will be considered a two party agreement between Gluu and such “Customer” under this Agreement.
14.2. Publicity: References. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Sales Order, Gluu may refer to Customer as one of Gluu’s customers and use Customer’s logo as part of such reference, provided that Gluu complies with any trademark usage requirements notified to it by Customer. with Customer’ s prior written approval, including if so specified in the applicable Sales Order, (i) Gluu may either (a) issue a press release announcing the relationship between Gluu and Customer, or (b) submit a joint press release to Customer for Customer’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and (ii) Customer will be a reference account for Gluu, provided, however, that Gluu will provide Customer with reasonable notice and obtain Customer’s consent before scheduling any reference calls or site visits.
14.3. Compliance with Laws. Each party will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to it, including U.S. export control laws. Neither party will have any liability to the other for any non-performance of their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that the non-performance is mandated by applicable law. Each party represents and warrants to the other that neither it nor its Affiliates, nor any of its or their users, officers or directors, are persons, entities or organizations with whom the other party is prohibited from dealing (including provision of software, products or services) by virtue of any applicable law, regulation, or executive order, including US export control laws, and names appearing on the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s office of Foreign Assets Control’s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List. Gluu may access, modify and disclose Customer Data as and when required by applicable law; Gluu will provide notice to Customer of modification or disclosure of Customer Data as soon as reasonably practicable in the circumstances, unless prohibited by applicable law.

This customary commercial license is provided in accordance with FAR 12.211 (Technical Data) and FAR 12.212 (Software) and, for Department of Defense transactions, DFAR 252.227-7015 (Technical Data — Commercial Items) and DFAR 227.7202-3 (Rights in Commercial Computer Software or Computer Software Documentation). If a government agency has a need for rights not conveyed under these terms, it must negotiate with Gluu to determine if there are acceptable terms for transferring such rights, and a mutually acceptable written addendum specifically conveying such rights must be included in any applicable contract or agreement.
14.5. Equitable Relief. Each of Customer and Gluu acknowledges that damages will be an inadequate remedy if the other violates the terms of this Agreement pertaining to protection of a party’s Intellectual Property Rights, Confidential Information or Personal Information. Accordingly, each of them will have the right, in addition to any other rights each of them may have, to seek in any court of competent jurisdiction, temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to restrain any breach, threatened breach, or otherwise to specifically enforce any of the obligations in this Agreement.
14.6. Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery. During any period in which Customer is subscribed to the Subscription Services, Gluu will comply with its then current applicable Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans. Gluu will test such plans at least once a year. Gluu will provide Customer with summaries of such plans and test results upon written request. Gluu may not modify such plans to provide materially less protection to Customer without Customer’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably conditioned or withheld.
14.7. Force Majeure. If the performance of this Agreement is adversely restricted or if either party is unable to conform to any warranty or obligation by reason of any Force Majeure Event then, except with respect to obligations to pay any fees or expenses and to obligations under Section 14.6 above (Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery), the party affected, upon giving prompt written notice to the other party, will be excused from such performance on a day-to-day basis to the extent of such restriction (and the other party will likewise be excused from performance of its obligations on a day-to-day basis to the extent such party’s obligations relate to the performance so restricted);
provided, however, that the party so affected will use all commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance and both parties will proceed whenever such causes are removed or cease. “Force Majeure Event” means any failure or delay caused by or the result of causes beyond the reasonable control of a party or its service providers that could not have been avoided or corrected through the exercise of reasonable diligence, including acts of God, fire, flood, hurricane or other natural catastrophe, internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of the party’s or its applicable infrastructure provider’s facilities, denial of service attacks, state-sponsored malware or state-sponsored cyber-attacks, terrorist actions, laws, orders,
regulations, directions or actions of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof, or any civil or military authority, national emergency, insurrection, riot or war, or other similar occurrence. If a party fails to perform its obligations as a result of such restriction for a period of more than 30 days, then the other party may terminate the affected Services without liability.
14.8. Service Enhancement Analysis. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Sales Order, Gluu may use Customer’s and its Users’ Subscription Services usage history and statistics (collectively, “Enhancement Data”) for Gluu’s internal analytical purposes related to its provision of Services, including to improve and enhance the Subscription Services and the Gluu Platform. Gluu may make information derived from its analysis of Enhancement Data publicly available, provided that the publicized information does not include any Enhancement Data that has not been aggregated and anonymized. For the purposes of this Agreement, aggregated and anonymized Enhancement Data means Enhancement Data that (i) has been aggregated with other data, and (ii) does not contain information that identifies Customer or its Users. For the sake of clarity, aggregated and anonymized
data is not Confidential Information of Customer.

14.10. Severability; Invalidity. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, such invalidity will not render invalid the remainder of this Agreement or the remainder of which such invalid provision is a part. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be held unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.
14.11. Waiver. No waiver of or with respect to any provision of this Agreement, nor consent by a party to the breach of or departure from any provision of this Agreement, will in any event be binding on or effective against such party unless it be in writing and signed by such party, and then such waiver will be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.
14.12. Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no provisions of this Agreement are intended nor will be interpreted to provide or create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gluu’s suppliers of products and services delivered hereunder will enjoy the same disclaimers of warranty, limitations on liability and similar exculpatory provisions with respect to such products and services as does Gluu.
14.13. Assignment. Neither party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other, which will not be unreasonably withheld, provided, however that, subject to any restrictions specified in any applicable Sales Order, either party may assign all, but not some of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates, or to any entity into or with which it is merged, or that acquires all or substantially all of its assets, upon notice to the other party, but without requiring consent. Subject to the foregoing restriction on assignment, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
14.14. Notices. Gluu will provide Customer with notices that affect Gluu’s customers generally (e.g., notices that relate to modifications or updates to, or the availability or interoperability of the Gluu Platform) via e-mail or the Gluu Platform dashboard or account center.
