9.   CONFIDENTIALITY

        9.1   Definitions. “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by one Party (“Discloser”) to the other Party (“Recipient”) under these Terms & Conditions during the Term. Confidential Information includes information that is marked or identified as confidential and, if not marked or identified as confidential, information that should reasonably have been understood by Recipient to be proprietary and confidential to Discloser or to a third Party, whether or not such information is designated as confidential. Company’s Confidential Information includes Software and Documentation. Customer’s Confidential Information includes Customer Data.
        9.2   Protection. Recipient shall not use any Confidential Information for any purpose not expressly permitted by these Terms & Conditions and shall not disclose Confidential Information to anyone other than Users (with respect to Customer), and its employees and independent contractors who have a need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of these Terms & Conditions (with respect to Company) and who are, in each case, subject to confidentiality obligations materially similar to Recipient’s obligations under this Section 9. Recipient shall protect Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access and disclosure in the same manner as Recipient protects its own confidential or proprietary information of a similar nature and with no less than reasonable care. Recipient shall use commercially reasonable data security measures to prevent unauthorized access to Discloser’s electronically stored or processed data. At Discloser’s request or upon termination or expiration of these Terms & Conditions, Recipient will return to Discloser or destroy (or permanently erase in the case of electronic files) all copies of the Confidential Information that Recipient does not have a continuing right to use under these Terms & Conditions, and Recipient will, upon request, certify to Discloser its compliance with this sentence. The foregoing will not apply to Customer Data, which will be returned or destroyed pursuant to Section 4.4.

Recipient shall have no confidentiality obligations under Section 9.2 above with respect to any information of Discloser that Recipient can document: (a) was already known to Recipient prior to Discloser’s disclosure; (b) is disclosed to Recipient by a third Party who had the right to make such disclosure without violating any confidentiality Terms & Conditions with or other obligation to the Party who disclosed the information; or (c) is, or through no fault of Recipient has become, generally available to the public; or (d) is independently developed by Recipient without access to or use of Confidential Information. Recipient may disclose Confidential Information if required to as part of a judicial process, government investigation, legal proceeding or other similar process, provided that, Recipient limits the disclosure to solely that information which is required under the requirement as advised by counsel, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Recipient gives prior written notice of such requirement to Discloser. Recipient shall take reasonable efforts to provide this notice in sufficient time to allow Discloser to seek an appropriate confidentiality agreement, protective order or modification of any disclosure, and Recipient shall reasonably cooperate in such efforts at the expense of Discloser.


10.   DISPUTE RESOLUTION

        10.1   If a dispute arises from or relates to these Terms & Conditions or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through direct discussions, the Parties agree to endeavor first to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration. The Parties further agree that any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Claims shall be heard by a single arbitrator. The place of arbitration shall be Denver, Colorado. BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROCEDURE, BOTH CONTRACTOR AND COMPANY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTES THROUGH A TRIAL BY JURY OR JUDGE OR THROUGH AN ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING.

The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person or entity and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. To the extent that the preceding sentences in this Section 10.2 are found to violate applicable law or are otherwise found unenforceable, any claim(s) alleged or brought on behalf of a class shall proceed in a court of law rather than by arbitration.


11.   CHANGE IN CONTROL

        12.8   Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms & Conditions, the Parties’ rights and remedies under these Terms & Conditions are cumulative. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or threatened breach of Sections 2.2 or 9 will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to the non-breaching Party for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach, and that if granted, the breaching Party agrees to waive any bond that would otherwise be required. If any legal action is brought by a Party to enforce these Terms & Conditions, the prevailing Party will be entitled to receive its attorneys’ fees, court costs and other legal expenses, in addition to any other relief it may receive from the non-prevailing Party.
        12.9   Compliance with Laws. Each Party shall comply with those laws, rules and regulations in jurisdictions within the United States that are specifically applicable to the applicable Party.
        12.10   Waivers. To be effective, any waivers must be in writing and signed by the Party to be charged. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of these Terms & Conditions 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 these Terms & Conditions is, for any reason, held to be unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms & Conditions will be unimpaired, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law (unless such modification is not permitted by law, in which case such provision will be disregarded).
        12.12   Counterparts. These Terms & Conditions may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be considered an original, but all of which together will constitute the same instrument.
        12.13   Entire Terms. These Terms & Conditions, including any SOW and any exhibits or attachments thereto, constitute the final and entire Terms between the parties regarding the subject hereof and supersedes all other Terms & Conditions, whether written or oral, between the parties concerning such subject matter.

To the extent of any conflict between the provisions of these Terms & Conditions and the provisions of any SOW, the provisions of the Terms & Conditions shall govern unless the SOW expressly indicates the conflicting term is to control. No amendment to these Terms & Conditions will be effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be charged.
