Customer acknowledges and agrees that Talentsky may update the Services and the Platform from time to time with or without notifying Customer. Talentsky shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such updates do not materially degrade the functionality of the Platform or the Services.

Customer shall not, and shall ensure that its Authorized Users shall not: (a) allow any third party to access the Talentsky Technology except as expressly allowed herein; (b) modify, adapt, alter or translate the Talentsky Technology; (c) sublicense, lease, sell, resell, rent, loan, distribute, transfer or otherwise allow the use of the Talentsky Technology for the benefit of any unauthorized third party; (d) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise derive or determine or attempt to derive or determine the source code (or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization) of the Platform, except as permitted by law; (e) interfere in any manner with the operation of the Platform, the Services or the hardware and network used to operate the same, or attempt to probe, scan or test vulnerability of the Platform without prior authorization of Talentsky; (f) modify, copy or make derivative works based on any part of the Talentsky Technology; (g) access or use the Talentsky Technology to build a similar or competitive product or service or otherwise engage in competitive analysis or benchmarking; (h) attempt to access the Platform through any unapproved interface; (i) use the Platform in connection with any of Customer's time-critical or mission-critical functions; (j) remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices (including copyright and trademark notices) of Talentsky or its licensors on the Talentsky Technology or any copies thereof; or (k) otherwise use the Talentsky Technology in any manner that exceeds the scope of use permitted under Section 2.1 or in a manner inconsistent with applicable law, the Documentation, the TOS, an applicable Order Form, or this Agreement.

2.3 Usernames and Passwords. Each Authorized User will use his or her unique username and password to access the Platform pursuant to this Agreement. Authorized Users may only access the Services during one (1) concurrent login session. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) only Authorized Users are entitled to access the Services with their unique usernames and passwords; (b) it will provide to Talentsky information and other assistance as necessary to enable Talentsky to establish access to the Services for the Authorized Users, and will verify all Authorized User requests for access to the Services; (c) it will ensure that each unique username and password associated with an Authorized User will be used only by that Authorized User when accessing the Services and/or Platform; (d) Customer is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all Authorized Users' unique usernames and passwords, and is solely responsible for all activities that occur under these Authorized User accounts; (e) where an Authorized User ceases to be associated with Customer, Customer shall, and bears sole responsibility to, notify Talentsky as soon as reasonably practicable following the conclusion of such association; and (f) Customer will notify Talentsky promptly of any actual or suspected unauthorized use of any account, username, or passwords, or any other breach or suspected breach of this Agreement. Talentsky reserves the right to suspend, disable or terminate any Authorized User's access to the Platform or the Services that Talentsky reasonably determines may have been used by an unauthorized third party. The unique usernames and passwords cannot be shared or used by more than one individual Authorized User to access the Platform.

2.4 Company Content. Customer is solely responsible for any and all obligations with respect to the accuracy, quality and legality of Customer Content. Customer will obtain all third-party licenses, consents and permissions needed for Talentsky to use, copy, store and process the Customer Content to provide the Platform and/or Services. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer will be solely responsible for obtaining from third parties (including all Authorized Users) all necessary consents and rights for Talentsky to use the Customer Content submitted by or on behalf of Customer or Authorized Users for the purposes set forth in this Agreement, including all consents required in accordance with all applicable privacy laws and the Privacy Policy.

2.5 Authorized User Access to Platform. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Platform is primarily designed to permit users to develop a professional skills network that can be used throughout their professional careers. Accordingly, Customer acknowledges that each Authorized User's interaction with the Platform may extend beyond that Authorized User's relationship with Customer and such Authorized User may use the Platform for their own professional purposes in accordance with the TOS. Customer shall ensure that each Authorized User meets the conditions of use set forth in an applicable Order Form, and shall notify Talentsky if at any point an Authorized User fails or ceases to meet any conditions set forth therein. Customer bears sole responsibility for informing Talentsky when an Authorized User no longer has a relationship with Customer and Talentsky will not be liable for any failure by Customer to inform Talentsky in accordance with this provision.

2.6 Necessary Equipment. Customer must provide all equipment and software necessary to connect to the Platform, including but not limited to, applicable application program interfaces that have sufficient bandwidth to facilitate the Services and provisioning of the Platform.

2.7 Support Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Talentsky will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) provide support for the use of the Platform and Services to Customer; and (b) keep the Platform and Services operational and available to Customer, in each case in accordance with its standard policies and procedures.

2.8 Authorized Reseller Services. If Customer acquires access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller, such Authorized Reseller may offer additional or supplemental services, such as supplemental support services (collectively, "Reseller Services"). Any Reseller Services will not be subject to these Enterprise Subscription Terms and will be governed by a separate agreement between Customer and the Authorized Reseller.

3. FEES, PAYMENT, AND TAXES.

Except as specified in Section 3.1, this Section 3 does not apply to Customer if Customer acquires access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller. If Customer purchases access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller, the payment terms and conditions set forth in a separate agreement between Customer and such Authorized Reseller will apply.

3.1 Fees. The fees for access to the Platform and for the Services shall be set forth on an applicable Order Form ("Fees"). Unless otherwise expressly specified in the applicable Order Form, the Fees: (a) are payable in advance for each Order Form; and (b) are calculated based on Services ordered by Customer, and not actual use. For the avoidance of doubt, the quantities of Services purchased may not be decreased during the Term. If Customer purchases access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer will be invoiced by such Authorized Reseller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and upon notice to Customer, Talentsky may assume any payment collection obligations from an Authorized Reseller and Talentsky expressly reserves the right to collect such payment for the Services in accordance with the balance of this Section 3.

3.2 Invoicing and Payment. All Fees are quoted in United States Dollars and, except as set forth otherwise in this Agreement, fees are non-cancellable and non-refundable. Talentsky will invoice Customer annually in advance for the Fees, unless otherwise expressly specified in the applicable Order Form. Fees are payable thirty (30) days from the date of invoice and will be deemed overdue if they remain unpaid thereafter.

3.3 Late Payments. Payments by Customer that are past due will be subject to interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (or, if less, the maximum allowed by applicable law) on that overdue balance. Customer will be responsible for any costs resulting from collection by Talentsky of any such overdue balance, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs. Talentsky reserves the right (in addition to any other rights or remedies Talentsky may have) to suspend Customer and all Authorized Users' access to the Services if any Fees are more than fifteen (15) days overdue until such amounts are paid in full.

3.4 Taxes. The Fees do not include taxes, duties or charges of any kind. If Talentsky is required to pay or collect any local, value added, goods and services taxes or any other similar taxes or duties arising out of or related to this Agreement (not including taxes based on Talentsky's income), then such taxes and/or duties shall be billed to and paid by Customer.

3.5 Withholding Payments. If any applicable law requires Customer to withhold amounts from any payments to Talentsky hereunder, then Customer will perform such obligations consistent with the provisions of this Section. Customer will effect such withholding, remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authorities and promptly furnish Talentsky with tax receipts evidencing the payments of such amounts. The sum payable by Customer upon which the deduction or withholding is based will be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after such deduction or withholding, Talentsky receives and retains, free from liability for such deduction or withholding, a net amount equal to the amount Talentsky would have received and retained in the absence of such required deduction or withholding.

4. TERMS AND TERMINATION

Section 4.1 does not apply to Customer if Customer acquires access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller. If Customer purchases access to the Services through an Authorized Reseller, the term set forth in the Order Form will apply.

4.1 Term. This Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and will continue in full force and effect for the subscription term designated on an Order Form, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Agreement (the "Term").

Thereafter, and unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, the Order Form and all active additional Services will automatically renew for additional terms of one (1) year at Talentsky's then-current fees for the Services, unless either Party gives written notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term.

4.2 Termination. Either Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to the other Party if: (a) the other Party materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach remains uncured more than thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach; or (b) the other Party: (i) becomes insolvent; (ii) files a petition in bankruptcy that is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of commencement; or (iii) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

Termination of this Agreement will not limit either Party from pursuing any other remedies available to it, including injunctive relief, nor will termination relieve Customer of its obligation to pay all Fees that accrued prior to such termination.

5. CONFIDENTIALITY.

5.1 Definition. Each Party ("Receiving Party") acknowledges that it may receive from the other Party ("Disclosing Party") confidential information relating to the Disclosing Party and such confidential information includes, but is not limited to, technical, business, marketing and financial information, and any other information that could reasonably be considered confidential or proprietary ("Confidential Information").

During and after the term of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall: (a) not use (except for performance of this Agreement) or disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party; and (b) take no less than the same measures that it takes with its own Confidential Information, and in any case no less than reasonable measures, to maintain the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in confidence.

5.4 Exceptions. Either Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by law, provided that the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party reasonable advance notice of such required disclosure and cooperates with the Disclosing Party so that the Disclosing Party has the opportunity to obtain appropriate confidential treatment for such Confidential Information.

5.5 Ownership. All Confidential Information disclosed by Disclosing Party shall remain the property of the Disclosing Party. The Disclosing Party reserves all rights in its Confidential Information. Nothing in this Agreement or the disclosures envisaged by this Agreement shall (except for the limited use right above) operate to transfer, or operate as a grant of any Intellectual Property Rights in the Confidential Information.

SUCH FEATURES OR TOOLS ARE OFFERED SOLELY FOR EXPERIMENTAL PURPOSES AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND MAY BE MODIFIED OR DISCONTINUED AT TALENTSKY'S SOLE DISCRETION. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION APPLY WITH FULL FORCE TO SUCH FEATURES OR TOOLS.

9. INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 By Talentsky. Talentsky will defend at its expense any suit brought against Customer, and will pay any settlement Talentsky makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim by any third party alleging that the Platform or the Services infringes such third party's patents, copyrights or trade secret rights under applicable laws of any jurisdiction within the United States of America. If any portion of the Platform or Services becomes, or in Talentsky's opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement ("Infringing Technology"), Talentsky may, at Talentsky's option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Infringing Technology; (b) replace the Infringing Technology with non-infringing software or services which do not materially impair the functionality of the Platform or Services; (c) modify the Infringing Technology so that it becomes non-infringing; or (d) terminate this Agreement and refund any unused prepaid Fees for the remainder of the term then in effect, and upon such termination, Customer will immediately cease all use of the Talentsky Technology. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Talentsky will have no obligation under this Section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon: (i) any use of the Platform or Services not in accordance with this Agreement, an applicable Order Form, the TOS, or as specified in the Documentation; (ii) any use of the Platform or Services in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Talentsky; or (iii) any modification of the Platform or Services by any person other than Talentsky or its authorized agents (collectively, the "Exclusions" and each, an "Exclusion"). This Section states the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer and the entire liability of Talentsky, or any of the officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors or representatives of the foregoing, for infringement claims and actions.

9.2 By Customer. Customer will defend at its expense any suit brought against Talentsky, and will pay any settlement Customer makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim arising out of or relating to: (a) an Exclusion, or (b) Customer's breach or alleged breach of Section 8.2. This Section states the sole and exclusive remedy of Talentsky and the entire liability of Customer, or any of its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors or representatives, for the claims and actions described herein.

9.3 Procedure. The indemnifying Party's obligations as set forth above are expressly conditioned upon each of the foregoing: (a) the indemnified Party promptly notifying the indemnifying Party in writing of any threatened or actual claim or suit; (b) the indemnifying Party having sole control of the defense or settlement of any claim or suit; and (c) the indemnified Party cooperating with the indemnifying Party to facilitate the settlement or defense of any claim or suit.

10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

10.1 Types of Damages. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY NOR TO ANY THIRD PARTIES FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST DATA OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE OR PUNITIVE LOSSES OR DAMAGES HOWEVER ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TALENTSKY TECHNOLOGY, WHETHER UNDER CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THAT SUCH DAMAGES MAY ARISE, OCCUR OR RESULT. IN NO EVENT SHALL TALENTSKY BE LIABLE FOR PROCUREMENT COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.

10.2 Amount of Damages. EACH PARTY'S AGGREGATE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES FOR SERVICES PERFORMED WILL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER UNDER THE APPLICABLE ORDER FORM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

10.3 Basis of the Bargain. THESE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PRICES HAVE BEEN SET AND THE AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO IN RELIANCE UPON THESE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND THAT ALL SUCH LIMITATIONS FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN TALENTSKY AND CUSTOMER. TALENTSKY'S FEES FOR THE SERVICES REFLECTS THIS ALLOCATION OF RISK AND THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SPECIFIED HEREIN.

10.4 Exclusions. THESE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY DO NOT APPLY TO: (A) A BREACH BY A PARTY OF SECTIONS 2 OR 5; (B) A PARTY'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS; (C) CUSTOMER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 3 AND 8.2; OR (D) ANY DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY EITHER PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

11.1 Relationship Between the Parties. Talentsky is an independent contractor; nothing in this Agreement will be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between the Parties. Customer will not have, and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of Talentsky. Each Party will be solely responsible for payment of all compensation owed to its employees, as well as employment related taxes. Each Party will maintain appropriate worker's compensation insurance for its employees as well as general liability insurance.

11.2 Injunctive Relief. Customer acknowledges that the Platform and the Services contain valuable Intellectual Property Rights and proprietary information of Talentsky, that any actual or threatened breach of Sections 2 or 5 will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to Talentsky for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach. If Customer continues to use the Platform or the Services after its right to do so has terminated or expired, Talentsky will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief without the requirement of posting bond.

11.3 Compliance With Laws. Customer warrants that it will comply in all respects with all applicable laws, including Export Administration Regulations, as applicable, and all other U.S. export and re-export restrictions applicable to the Talentsky Technology licensed hereunder.

11.4 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any assignment or transfer in derogation of the foregoing shall be null and void, provided, however that either Party shall have the right to assign the Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, to the successor entity in the event of merger, corporate reorganization or a sale of all or substantially all of such Party's assets. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.5 Notices. All notices required or permitted under this Agreement must be delivered in writing, if to Talentsky, by emailing legal@talentsky.com and if to Customer by emailing the Customer Point of Contact email address listed on the Order Form, provided, however, that with respect to any notices relating to breaches of this Agreement or termination, a copy of such notice will also be sent in writing to the other Party at the Party's address as listed on the Order Form by courier, by certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally-recognized express mail service. Each Party may change its email address and/or address for receipt of notice by giving notice of such change to the other Party.

11.6 Arbitration. In the event a dispute arises between the Parties hereto arising out of or in connection with or with respect to this Agreement or any breach thereof ("Dispute"), such Dispute shall be determined and settled by arbitration in San Francisco, California, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The award rendered thereon by the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties thereto, and judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall prevent either Party from seeking relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for any misuse or misappropriating of such Party's Intellectual Property Rights or Confidential Information.

11.7 Governing Law. The Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws or provisions and this Agreement shall not be governed or affected by any version of the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act enacted in any jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. To the extent a Dispute is excluded from Section 11.6, such Dispute shall be brought in a state or federal court in the County of Santa Clara and each Party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any such action or proceeding. The prevailing Party in any action to enforce this Agreement (including under Section 11.6) shall be entitled to recover attorneys' fees, court costs, and other collection expenses.

11.8 Waivers; Severability. Any waivers shall be effective only if made in writing signed by representatives authorized to bind the Parties. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. If any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer agrees that Section 10 will remain in effect notwithstanding the unenforceability of any provision in Sections 8 and 9.

11.9 Construction. The headings of Sections of this Agreement are for convenience and are not to be used in interpreting this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the word "including" means "including but not limited to."

11.10 Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either Party (except for the obligation to pay Fees owed) will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, war, fire, earthquake, typhoon, flood, natural disasters, governmental action, pandemic/epidemic, cloud-service provider outages any other event beyond the control of such Party, provided that such Party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other Party of the circumstances causing the delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.

11.11 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and any applicable Order Form constitutes the complete agreement between the Parties and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, or representations, written or oral, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. To the extent that a conflict arises between the terms and conditions of an Order Form and these Enterprise Subscription Terms, the terms and conditions of the Enterprise Subscription Terms will govern, except to the extent that the Order Form expressly states that it supersedes specific language in the Agreement. It is expressly agreed that the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Order Form supersede the terms of any Customer purchase order. An Order Form may be modified or amended only by a writing signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party; no other act, document, usage, or custom will be deemed to amend or modify an Order Form. Talentsky may modify these Enterprise Subscription Terms on a going forward basis from time to time by posting the modified Enterprise Subscription Terms to www.talentsky.com/enterpriseterms, and any such modifications will take effect upon renewal of the Order Form.

11.12 U.S. Government Restricted Rights. If Customer is a government end user, then this provision also applies to Customer. The software contained within the Platform and the Services and provided in connection with this Agreement has been developed entirely at private expense, as defined in FAR section 2.101, DFARS section 252.227-7014(a)(1) and DFARS section 252.227-7015 (or any equivalent or subsequent agency regulation thereof), and is provided as "commercial items," "commercial computer software" and/or "commercial computer software documentation." Consistent with DFARS section 227.7202 and FAR section 12.212, and to the extent required under U.S. federal law, the minimum restricted rights as set forth in FAR section 52.227-19 (or any equivalent or subsequent agency regulation thereof), any use, modification, reproduction, release, performance, display, disclosure or distribution thereof by or for the U.S. Government shall be governed solely by this Agreement and shall be prohibited except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement.
