    5. Intellectual Property and Data Rights

    5.1. IP Ownership. Axonius, its Affiliates and/or its or their licensors (as applicable) own all right, title, and interest in and to the Axonius IP. Company acknowledges and agrees that, except for the limited licenses to the Solutions set forth in Section 2, nothing in this Agreement grants, by implication, waiver, estoppel or otherwise, to Company or to any third party, and neither Company nor any third party has acquired or will acquire, any right, title, or interest in or to, any part of the Axonius IP. Company shall: (i) safeguard the Axonius IP from infringement, misappropriation, theft, misuse, or unauthorized access; (ii) promptly notify Axonius in writing if Company becomes aware of (a) any actual or suspected infringement, misappropriation or other violation of Axonius IP, or (b) any claim that the Axonius IP, including any production, use, marketing, sale or other disposition thereof, in whole or in part infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates the Intellectual Property Rights or other rights of any Person; and (iii) as reasonably requested by Axonius and at Axonius’ expense, reasonably cooperate with and assist Axonius in the prevention and/or abatement of any actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of Axonius’ and its Affiliates’ rights in and to the Axonius IP.
    5.2. Company Data; Security and Privacy. Company retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Company Data. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Company hereby grants Axonius and its Affiliates a worldwide, royalty-free license to process the Company Data, including, without limitation, to access, use, copy, distribute, perform, export, and display the Company Data: (i) to provide and maintain the Solutions and Support; (ii) to prevent and/or address technical or security issues; (iii) to ensure the Company Data and Company’s use of the Solutions and Support are in compliance with this Agreement; (iv) as required by applicable law; and (v) as permitted in writing by Company. With respect to any such processing of Company Data hereunder by Axonius which is considered under applicable privacy, security and/or data protection laws and regulations to be “personal” data/information (if any), the Parties hereby agree that the applicable provisions of the data processing agreement available at https://www.axonius.com/data-processing-agreement shall be and hereby are incorporated by reference into this Section 5.2 as binding on both Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. Company represents and warrants that: (a) it has all rights, licenses, consents, permissions, power and authority necessary to grant the rights herein for any Company Data; and (b) the Company Data (and any rights granted in respect thereto) do not and shall not (x) infringe or violate any Intellectual Property Rights or privacy, data protection or publicity rights of any Person, (y) violate any applicable laws, including regarding acceptable use and/or export, or (z) violate any third party’s policies and/or terms governing the Company Data. Other than the data protection obligations expressly set forth in this Section 5.2, Axonius assumes no responsibility or liability for Company Data, and Company shall be solely responsible for the Company Data and the consequences of using any rights granted in respect thereto.
     
    6. Fees.

    6.1. Company shall pay Axonius, either directly or through a Reseller (as defined below), all fees set forth in each Sales Order for the Solutions specified therein (“Fees”) in accordance with the timetables therein. The Fees are non-refundable. An unlicensed increase in Company’s total Solution usage, beyond the pre-selected authorized total usage tier range expressly set forth in any then-current Sales Order, would result in a corresponding increase in such Solution’s Fees pro-rated for the remainder of such Solution’s then-current Subscription Period. Axonius’ systems and default adapter settings shall be the basis for assessing and validating Company’s total authorized Solution tier ranges and usage. All Fee payments not made when due shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (calculated daily and compounded monthly) or at the highest interest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, from the due date until paid. In addition, and without derogating from any other right Axonius has under law or contract, if Company fails to make any such payment when due, it shall constitute sufficient cause for Axonius to suspend its performance and grant of rights under this Agreement. 
    6.2. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in the course of its performance of this Agreement. All amounts due by or on behalf of Company to Axonius under this Agreement (i) shall be made in U.S. Dollars to Axonius’ account, and (ii) are exclusive of any and all taxes (including without limitation, any VAT, sales, use, excise, goods and/or services taxes), levies, or duties which may be imposed in respect of this Agreement and/or the purchase or sale of the licenses to the Solutions and Support (“Taxes”), which shall be borne solely by Company. If Company is in a jurisdiction which requires it to deduct or withhold Taxes or other amounts from any amounts due to Axonius, Company shall promptly notify Axonius in writing, and the Parties shall cooperate in an effort to avoid any such withholding in accordance with applicable law; provided, however, that, in any case, Company shall bear the sole responsibility to pay such Tax and such Tax shall be deemed as being added on top of the Fees payable by Company.

    7. Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN, THE SOLUTIONS, INCLUDING ANY DATA THEREIN OR RESULTING THEREFROM AND ANY SERVICES OR SUPPORT PROVIDED HEREUNDER, ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS AND/OR ACCURACY. AXONIUS DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT THE SOLUTIONS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE AND DOES NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING EITHER THE USE, OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE, OF THE SOLUTIONS.
     
    8. Confidentiality

    8.1. “Confidential Information” shall mean any information disclosed by one Party, its Affiliates, business partners or their respective employees, agents or contractors (collectively, the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party, its Affiliates, business partners or their respective employees, agents or contractors (collectively, the “Receiving Party”), that is designated as confidential or that, given the nature of the information or circumstances surrounding its disclosure, should be reasonably understood to be confidential. Confidential Information shall include all specifications, formulas, prototypes, computer programs, and any records, data, ideas, methods, techniques, processes and projections, improvements, patents and know-how related thereto, relating to the Disclosing Party. The Fees and other financial terms in this Agreement and in any Sales Order are Confidential Information of Axonius. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include information which (i) is generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Receiving Party, (ii) was within the Receiving Party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the Receiving Party pursuant hereto, (iii) becomes available to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Disclosing Party, or (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without referencing or using the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. If the Receiving Party is required by law or by any governmental body to disclose any Confidential Information, unless prohibited by law or such body, the Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt written notice of any such requirement so that the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order and/or waive compliance with the applicable confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. In the absence of such protective order or waiver, the Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information as is legally required.
    8.2. Non-disclosure and Non-use. The Receiving Party shall use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information solely for the purposes hereof, shall not disclose any such Confidential Information to a third party without the Disclosing Party’s prior consent, and shall take commercially reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of such Confidential Information, using at least the same degree of care as it uses with respect to its own Confidential Information of like importance but, in any event, at least reasonable care. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to its and its Affiliates’ respective employees, officers, directors, contractors, agents, and other representatives (“Representatives”) with a need to know who are subject to confidentiality obligations not less restrictive than those set forth herein, and the Receiving Party agrees that it shall be responsible for its Representatives’ compliance with such obligations.
    8.3. Return and Destruction. Promptly following the express written request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall (i) return, destroy or erase any information disclosed in any tangible form (other than from back-up, archival electronic storage and/or as otherwise required by existing internal audit/retention policies or applicable law) containing any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, and (ii) provide written confirmation to this effect. The obligations set forth herein regarding non-disclosure and non-use of the other Party’s Confidential Information shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement for two (2) years; provided, however, that with respect to trade secrets specifically, such obligations shall continue to survive for so long as such information retains its trade secret status under applicable law.

    9. Indemnification.

    9.1. Axonius Indemnification. Axonius shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company from and against any and all Losses incurred by Company resulting from any Action by a third party alleging that any Solution, or any use thereof in accordance with this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates such third party’s Intellectual Property Rights. This Section 9.1 shall not apply to the extent that any such alleged infringement arises from: (i) Third-Party Materials; (ii) combination, operation, or use of the Solutions in or with any technology (including any software, hardware, firmware, system, or network) or service not provided by Axonius or specified for Company’s use in the Documentation; (iii) modification of the Solutions other than (a) by Axonius in connection with this Agreement, or (b) with Axonius’ express written authorization and in strict accordance with Axonius’ written directions and specifications; (iv) use of any versions of the Solutions other than the most current versions, or failure to timely implement any maintenance release, modification, update, or replacement of the Solutions made available to Company by Axonius from time to time; (v) use of the Solutions after Axonius’ notice to Company of such activity’s alleged or actual infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of a third party’s rights; (vi) negligence, abuse, misapplication, or misuse of the Solutions by or on behalf of Company or Company’s Affiliates; (vii) use of the Solutions by or on behalf of Company that is outside the purpose, scope, or manner of use authorized by this Agreement or in any manner contrary to Axonius’ instructions; (viii) events or circumstances outside of Axonius’ commercially reasonable control; or (ix) third-party claims or Losses for which Company is obligated to indemnify pursuant to Section ‎9.2.

    9.3. Indemnification Procedures.

The Indemnitor shall promptly assume control of the defense and investigation of such Action and shall employ counsel of its choice to defend the same, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee may participate in and/or observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnitor shall not settle any Action on any terms or in any manner that adversely affects the rights of any Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.
    9.4. Sole Remedy. THIS SECTION 9 SETS FORTH COMPANY’S SOLE REMEDIES AND AXONIUS’ SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED, OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THE SOLUTIONS, THE SUPPORT, THE DOCUMENTATION OR ANY OTHER SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT INFRINGES, MISAPPROPRIATES, OR OTHERWISE VIOLATES ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR ANY OTHER RIGHTS OF ANY PERSON.
