Company’s Confidential Information includes Platform, Software, and pricing information. "Disclosing Party" means the party disclosing or making available Confidential Information to the Receiving Party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to those of its employees, directors, affiliates, advisors, agents, contractors, and other representatives ("Representatives") who need to know such information in order to exercise their respective rights and obligations hereunder, provided that each such Representative is bound to protect the Confidential Information by confidentiality obligations substantially as protective as those set forth in this Agreement. The Receiving Party will be responsible for its Representatives' disclosure or use of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information in violation of Section 6 (Confidentiality). The Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party in writing upon discovery of any unauthorized disclosure or use of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information, or any other breach of Section 6, by it or its Representatives. The Receiving Party's obligations set forth in Section 6 will remain in effect during the Term and for three years after termination of this Agreement. The disclosure of Confidential Information to the Receiving Party does not grant or convey any right of ownership of such Confidential Information.

6.3 The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by law or legal process, provided, however, the Receiving Party will (unless prohibited by law or legal process): (a) give the Disclosing Party prior written notice of such disclosure to afford the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to appear, object, and obtain a protective order or other appropriate relief regarding such disclosure; (b) use diligent efforts to limit disclosure to that which is legally required; and (c) reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s expense, in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other legally available means of protection.

APPENDIX A

Professional Services Terms

Capitalized terms set forth in this Appendix but not defined in the Appendix have the meaning given elsewhere in the Agreement.

Statements of Work. All services to be performed under an SOF shall be described in either an SOF or a separate written, mutually agreed to, SOW signed by authorized representatives of both parties, each of which is expressly made subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Client agrees to retain Company to perform the consulting services described in each SOW (the "Services"), and Company agrees to perform the Services on the terms and subject to the conditions and assumptions set forth in this Agreement. Statements of Work should contain descriptions of the Services and a description of any deliverables to be provided by Company, Company’s compensation, and any additional terms and conditions the parties deem appropriate. Client and Company expressly acknowledge and agree that any schedules or timelines shall not be considered firm or fixed performance dates, are only to be regarded as estimated beginning and completion dates for the tasks and activities to be performed hereunder and are expected to be revised during the term of any engagement. Company agrees to use diligent efforts to meet schedules. Client acknowledges that Company limits the amount of time Company's personnel spend on out of town travel, and such limits may impact the weekly schedules of a particular engagement. All Services and Deliverables are accepted upon delivery.
Changes. Each party may request changes that affect the scope or duration of the Services relating to any SOW. Neither party shall be bound by any change requested by the other party, until such change has been memorialized in writing and signed (or otherwise agreed to in writing, including e-mail) by authorized representatives of each party (“Change Order”). Each Change Order will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Location and Access. Company may perform the Services at Client’s premises, Company’s premises or such other premises that Client and Company may deem appropriate. The SOW may describe the location where Company will perform Services. Client will permit Company to have reasonable access to Client’s premises, personnel and computer equipment for the purposes of performing the Services at Client’s premises.
Client Assistance. Client shall provide Company with such resources, information, cooperation, and assistance as Company may reasonably request in connection with the performance of the Services. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the Services are provided on Client’s premises, Client shall provide safe and adequate space, power, network connections, and other resources as reasonably requested by Company, whether requested during regular business hours or otherwise. Client acknowledges and agrees that Company’s ability to successfully perform the Services in a timely manner is contingent upon its receipt from Client of the information, resources and assistance requested. Company shall have no liability for deficiencies in the Services or Deliverables, or failure to meet any Schedule, resulting from the acts or omissions of Client, its agents or employees or performance of the Services in accordance with Client’s instructions.
Client Information. Client acknowledges and agrees that Company may, in performing its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, be dependent upon or use data, material, and other information furnished by Client without any independent investigation or verification thereof, and that Company shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy and completeness of such information in performing the Services. Company, in performing the Services, will be making recommendations and providing advice, but all decisions as to implementing such advice and recommendations shall be made by and shall be the sole responsibility of the Client and Company shall be entitled to rely on all such decisions of Client.
Ownership. “Company Reserved Technology” means any ideas, concepts, know-how, knowledge, techniques, tools, approaches, methodologies, templates, operating instructions, standardized features, other technology, or any intellectual property rights created, developed, owned or licensed by Company (i) prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement or (ii) during the term of this Agreement but outside the scope of this Agreement and any SOW or (iii) during the term of this Agreement that are generally applicable and not Client-specific. Other than Company Reserved Technology, all work product that Company creates specifically for Client under any SOW (the “Deliverables”), all patents, copyrights, trade secrets or other proprietary rights in or to the Deliverables are and will be the sole and exclusive property of Client, and Company hereby assigns ownership of Deliverables to Client. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall own all worldwide right, title and interest in and to the intellectual property rights embodied in the Company Reserved Technology, whether or not such Company Reserved Technology is incorporated into any Client Deliverables. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Company from creating derivative works based on the Company Reserved Technology, developing, modifying, using, marketing, distributing or otherwise commercially exploiting the Company Reserved Technology in any manner. Company reserves all rights not expressly granted to Client under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as limiting Company’s rights to commercially use or market in the conduct of Company’s business general ideas, concepts, know-how, knowledge, market analysis, frameworks, techniques, tools, approaches, and methodologies or other residual values possessed or known to Company or learned or developed during the course of providing the Services, without obligation of any kind to Client.
Limited Warranty. Company represents and warrants that Company will perform the Services in a good and workmanlike manner. As Company’s sole obligation and Client’s sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty, Company will re-perform any defective services at no additional cost to Client.
Termination. At any time, either party may terminate one or more particular SOW for any reason, or for no reason, by providing thirty days’ written notice to the other party.
