   1. Subscription to the SaaS Solution includes Infinite's standard customer support services with the availability service levels for production provided in the table below (“Support Services”) and as described in this Section 5 (Service Levels).

      * The subscription fee is the contracted price for the month which is subject to the claim.

      Availability	Credit (% of monthly subscription fee*)

Infinite shall implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards that are designed to: (i) ensure the security and confidentiality of Customer Data in Infinite's possession or control; (ii) protect against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of Customer Data in Infinite's possession or control; and (iii) protect Customer Data in Infinite's possession or control from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of such Customer Data.

Customer shall employ all physical, administrative, and technical controls, screening, and security procedures and other safeguards necessary to: (a) securely administer the distribution and use of all Access Credentials and protect against any unauthorized access to or use of any Access Credentials or the SaaS Solution; and (b) control the content and use of Customer Data, including the uploading or other provision of any Customer Data to the SaaS Solution.

8. Fees and Payment.

   1. Fees. Customer shall pay Infinite the fees set forth in the Quote (“Fees”) in accordance with this Section 8.

   2. Taxes. All Fees and other amounts payable by Customer under this Agreement are exclusive of taxes and similar assessments.

Where applicable, taxes are based upon the location(s) the Customer identifies as receiving benefit of the SaaS Solution and any associated services. Infinite will apply taxes based upon the business address listed on a Quote as the primary benefit location unless the Customer provides additional information to Infinite. Customer shall keep such information current and providing any changes to Infinite. If Customer claims an exemption from any sales, use, or other tax, the Customer shall provide such exemption information to Infinite. It is the responsibility of Customer to make sure that its proof of exempt status remains current. In no event shall Infinite be liable for any taxes due by Customer and Customer hereby indemnifies Infinite against any such claims for taxes by any tax in authority or party acting on behalf of such taxing authority.

   3. Payment. Customer shall pay all Fees and Reimbursable Expenses within thirty (30) days after the date of the applicable invoice. Customer shall make all payments hereunder in US dollars by check, wire, or ACH. Customer shall make payments to the address or account specified in the applicable invoice or such other address or account as Infinite may specify in writing from time to time. Customer may reasonably and in good faith dispute an invoiced amount within thirty (30) days after the invoice date, provided that Customer shall promptly pay the undisputed portion of the invoice pursuant to Section 8.3 and may only withhold payment of the disputed portion until the dispute is resolved. The parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any payment dispute within forty-five (45) days.

   4. Late Payment. If Customer fails to make any payment when due then, in addition to all other remedies that may be available:

      1. Infinite may charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month calculated daily and compounded monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable Law;

      2. Customer shall reimburse Infinite for all reasonable costs incurred by Infinite in collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys' fees, court costs, and collection agency fees; and

      3. if such failure continues for sixty (60) days following written notice thereof, Infinite may suspend access to the SaaS Solution or other Infinite Materials until all past due amounts and interest thereon have been paid, without incurring any obligation or liability to Customer or any other Person by reason of such suspension.

   5. No Deductions or Setoffs. All amounts payable to Infinite under this Agreement shall be paid by Customer to Infinite in full without any setoff, recoupment, counterclaim, deduction, debit, or withholding for any reason (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as may be required by applicable Law).

   6. Service Usage. Each Quote sets forth Fees based on total number of Customer’s Employees (each a “Service Allocation”), beginning with the Fees payable by Customer for the levels of usage and data storage in effect as of the Effective Date. Subject to an additional Fee, Customer may increase its Service Allocation. If Customer exceeds its Service Allocation for any relevant period, Customer shall also pay to Infinite any applicable excess usage Fees. Customer acknowledges that exceeding its then-current Service Allocation without notice to Infinite may result in service degradation for Customer and other Infinite customers and agrees that: (i) Infinite has no obligation to permit Customer to exceed its then-current Service Allocation; and (ii) Customer is not entitled to any credits or refunds for periods during which Customer exceeds its then-current Service Allocation.

   7. Fixed Fees. Unless otherwise specified in a Quote, statement of work or other similar document, Fees are fixed for the term of the respective Quote, statement of work, or other similar document.

   8. Reimbursable Expenses. Customer shall reimburse Infinite for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Infinite in connection with performance under the Agreement as mutually agreed in writing in a Quote or statement of work (“Reimbursable Expenses”).

   9. Customer Employee Count and Excess Service Usage. Infinite or its nominee (including its accountants and auditors) may reasonably request Customer to confirm the total number of Customer Employees at any time during the Term and for two (2) years following the termination or earlier expiration of this Agreement for purposes of determining whether Customer has exceeded its Service Allocation. If the inspection of the total number of Customer Employees determines that Customer's use of the SaaS Solution exceeded the Service Allocation by more than 5%, Customer shall pay to Infinite all amounts due for such excess use of the SaaS Solution. If the total number of Customer Employees does not exceed 5%, then the Customer’s Service Allocation will be updated to reflect the total number of Customer Employees in any subsequent Quote, statement of work, or other similar document. Customer shall make all payments required under this Section 8.9 within thirty (30) days of the date of written notification of the results of the inspection.

      2. except as may be permitted by and subject to its compliance with Section 9.4, not disclose or permit access to Confidential Information other than to its Representatives who: (i) need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of the Receiving Party's exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations under and in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the Receiving Party's obligations under this Section 9.3; and (iii) are bound by confidentiality and restricted use obligations at least as protective of the Confidential Information as the terms set forth in this Section 9;

      3. safeguard the Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure using at least the degree of care it uses to protect its similarly sensitive information and in no event less than a reasonable degree of care;

      4. promptly notify the Disclosing Party of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information and take all reasonable steps to prevent further unauthorized use or disclosure; and

      5. ensure its Representatives' compliance with, and be responsible and liable for any of its Representatives' non-compliance with, the terms of this Section 9.

      6. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Receiving Party's obligations under this Section 9 with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under any applicable Law will continue until such time, if ever, as such Confidential Information ceases to qualify for trade secret protection under one or more such applicable Laws other than as a result of any act or omission of the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives.

   4. Compelled Disclosures. If the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is compelled by applicable Law to disclose any Confidential Information then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Receiving Party shall: (a) promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify to the extent permitted the Disclosing Party in writing of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party can seek a protective order or other remedy or waive its rights under Section 9.3; and (b) provide reasonable assistance to the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party's sole cost and expense, in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If the Disclosing Party waives compliance or, after providing the notice and assistance required under this Section 9.4, the Receiving Party remains required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose.

    4. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.1 AND SECTION 11.2, ALL SAAS SOLUTIONS, INFINITE MATERIALS, IMPLEMENTATION SERVICES, AND ANY OTHER SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” INFINITE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ALL WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE.

12. Indemnification.

    1. Infinite Indemnification. Infinite shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer and Customer's officers, directors, employees, agents, permitted successors, and permitted assigns (each, a “Customer Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses incurred resulting from any Action by a third party that Customer's use of the SaaS Solution (excluding Customer Data and Third-Party Materials) in accordance with this Agreement (including the Specifications) infringes or misappropriates such third party's US Intellectual Property Rights. The foregoing obligation does not apply to the extent that the alleged infringement arises from: (i) Third-Party Materials or Customer Data; (ii) access to or use of the Infinite Materials in combination with any hardware, system, software, network, or other materials or service not provided by Infinite or specified for Customer's use in the Documentation; (iii) modification of the Infinite Materials other than: (a) by or on behalf of Infinite; or (b) with Infinite's written approval in accordance with Infinite's written specification; (iv) failure to timely implement any modifications, upgrades, replacements, or enhancements made available to Customer by or on behalf of Infinite; or (v) any act, omission, or other matter described in Section 12.2 (Customer Indemnification), whether or not the same results in any Action against or Losses by any Infinite Indemnitee.

    2. Customer Indemnification. Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Infinite and its Affiliates, and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (each, a “Infinite Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Infinite Indemnitee resulting from any Action by a third party that arise out of or result from, or are alleged to arise out of or result from: (i) Customer Data, including any Processing of Customer Data by or on behalf of Infinite in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) any other materials or information (including any documents, data, specifications, software, content, or technology) provided by or on behalf of Customer or any Authorized User, including Infinite's compliance with any specifications or directions provided by or on behalf of Customer or any Authorized User to the extent prepared without any contribution by Infinite; (iii) allegation of facts that, if true, would constitute Customer's breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Agreement; or (iv) negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by Customer, any Authorized User, or any third party on behalf of Customer or any Authorized User, in connection with this Agreement.

    3. Indemnification Procedure. Each party shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any Action for which such party believes it is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 12.2 , as the case may be. The party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall cooperate with the other party (the “Indemnitor”) at the Indemnitor's sole cost and expense. The Indemnitor shall promptly assume control of the defense and shall employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor's sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnitor shall not settle any Action without the Indemnitee's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

    4. Mitigation. If any of portion of the SaaS Solution or Infinite Materials are, or in Infinite's opinion are likely to be, claimed to infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate any third-party Intellectual Property Right, or if Customer's or any Authorized User's use of the SaaS Solution or Infinite Materials is enjoined or threatened to be enjoined, Infinite may, at its option and sole cost and expense: (i) obtain the right for Customer to continue to use the SaaS Solution or other Infinite Materials materially as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) modify or replace the SaaS Solution or other Infinite Materials, in whole or in part, to seek to make the SaaS Solution and Infinite Materials (as so modified or replaced) non-infringing, while providing materially equivalent features and functionality, in which case such modifications or replacements will constitute SaaS Solution or Infinite Materials, as applicable, under this Agreement; or (iii) if, in Infinite’s sole discretion, neither of these options is viable, terminate this Agreement and provide a pro-rata refund of any pre-paid Fees to Customer.

    5. Sole Remedy. THIS SECTION 12 SETS FORTH CUSTOMER'S SOLE REMEDIES AND INFINITE'S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED, OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THE SAAS SOLUTION AND INFINITE MATERIALS OR ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT INFRINGES, MISAPPROPRIATES, OR OTHERWISE VIOLATES ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

13. Limitations of Liability.

    2. CAP ON MONETARY LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF INFINITE AND ITS LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND SUPPLIERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID TO INFINITE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

    4. Notices. Any notice, request, consent, claim, demand, waiver, or other communications under this Agreement have legal effect only if in writing and addressed to a party as follows (or to such other address or such other person that such party may designate from time to time in accordance with this Section 15.4):

       If to Infinite: 2600 Tower Oaks Blvd., Suite 700 Rockville, MD 20852 Email: [email protected] Attention: General Counsel

       If to Customer: Customer’s address and business contact as specified on the Quote, statement of work or other similar document.

    5. Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement: (a) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole; (d) words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice-versa; and (e) words denoting any gender include all genders. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement: (x) to sections, exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices mean the sections of, and exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. The parties intend this Agreement to be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted.

For purposes of the preceding sentence, and without limiting its generality, any merger, consolidation, or reorganization involving Customer (regardless of whether Customer is a surviving or disappearing entity) will be deemed to be a transfer of rights, obligations, or performance under this Agreement for which Infinite's prior written consent is required. No assignment, delegation, or transfer will relieve Customer of any of its obligations or performance under this Agreement. Any purported assignment, delegation, or transfer in violation of this Section 15.8 is void. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

    9. Force Majeure.

       1. No Breach or Default. In no event will either party be liable or responsible to the other party, or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement, (except for any obligations to make payments), when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstances beyond such party's reasonable control (a “Force Majeure Event”), including (i) acts of God; (ii) flood, fire, earthquake, epidemic, or explosion; (iii) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (iv) government order, law, or actions; (v) embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; (vi) national or regional emergency; and (viii) shortage of adequate power.

    12. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. No amendment to or modification of or rescission, termination, or discharge of this Agreement is effective unless it is in writing, identified as an amendment to or rescission, termination, or discharge of this Agreement and signed by an authorized representative of each party. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

    13. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effectuate the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

    14. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Delaware in each case located in the County of New Castle, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice, or other document by mail to such party's address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action, or other proceeding brought in any such court.

    15. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

    16. Equitable Relief. Each party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under Section 9 or, in the case of Customer, Section 3, would cause the other party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other party will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise.

    17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any action, suit, or other legal or administrative proceeding is instituted or commenced by either party against the other party arising out of or related to this Agreement, the substantially prevailing party is entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs from the non-prevailing party.
