If Speed to Contact determines that it is necessary to perform maintenance services for a problem in the operation or performance of the Ricochet360 Platform that is caused by either of the above problems, then Speed to Contact will notify Customer and have the right to invoice Customer for all such maintenance services performed by Speed to Contact and approved in advance by Customer.

5. TERM AND TERMINATION.

5.1. Subscription Period; Automatic Renewal. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Agreement, will remain in force and effect until the completion of the Service Order Term Length (e.g., one month, one quarter, or one year) set forth in the applicable Service Order (the “Initial Subscription Period”). Thereafter, this Agreement will automatically renew on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis (the “Renewal Date”) depending on the Service Order Term Length chosen by Customer when subscribing to the Ricochet360 Platform. The Initial Subscription Period and any subsequent renewal term(s) are individually and collectively referred to as the “Subscription Period.” The pricing and related terms applicable during any renewed Subscription Period will be the applicable rates then in effect on the Renewal Date or as otherwise set forth in a new Service Order.

5.2. Minimum Term. By subscribing to the Ricochet360 Platform, Customer acknowledges and agrees to be bound to a minimum Subscription Period of at least (a) the Initial Subscription Period if subscribed on a quarterly or annual basis, or (b) two (2) months if subscribed on a monthly basis.

5.3. Suspension. Except with respect to any Fees disputed in writing in good faith by Customer, if any Fees are seven (7) or more days overdue, Speed to Contact may, without limiting Speed to Contact’s other rights and remedies, suspend Customer’s access to and use of the Ricochet360 Platform until such amounts are paid in full. Speed to Contact may immediately suspend Customer’s access to and use of the Ricochet360 Platform at any time without notice as Speed to Contact, in its sole discretion, if Customer fails to comply with this Agreement, if Customer’s use poses a security risk or could subject Speed to Contact or any third party to liability, or to prevent, investigate, or otherwise address any suspected misuse of the Ricochet360 Platform.

5.4. Termination. Either Party may terminate this Agreement if the other Party: (a) is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within ten (10) days following written notice by the non-breaching Party (including details sufficient to identify the material breach) or (b) ceases its business operations or becomes subject to bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or assignment for the benefit of creditors and such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days. Speed to Contact may terminate this Agreement for any reason at any time by providing Customer at least thirty (30) days prior written notice. Customer may only cancel its subscription to the Ricochet360 Platform by notifying Speed to Contact at billing@ricochet360.com or via Customer’s Account at https://ahoy.ricochet.me/ at least thirty (30) days prior to the Renewal Date. Upon timely notice of cancellation, termination of this Agreement will be effective at the expiration of Subscription Period then in effect. No Customer cancellations are permitted during the applicable Subscription Period.

5.5. Effect of Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Speed to Contact may immediately deactivate Customer’s Account and terminate Customer’s access to and use of the Ricochet360 Platform; provided, however, that in no event shall any such deactivation relieve Customer of any obligation to pay Fees accrued or payable to Speed to Contact or of any liability pertaining to Customer’s use of the Ricochet360 Platform prior to such expiration or termination.

5.6. Survival. Sections 2.1, 2.4, 3.1, 3.3, 5.6, 6.6, 6.9, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14.3, 14.4, and 15 of this Agreement, as well as any other terms of this Agreement that expressly extend or by their nature should extend beyond termination of this Agreement, will survive and continue in full force and effect after any termination of this Agreement.

6. FEES AND PAYMENT.

6.1. Fees. By subscribing to the Ricochet360 Platform, Customer agrees to pay Speed to Contact all User Fees, Usage Fees, and any other fees and costs charged to Customer’s Account during the applicable Subscription Period (collectively, “Fees”). All invoices and payments must be made in United States Dollars. All Fees are non-refundable.

6.2. Calculation of Fees. The Ricochet360 Platform is provided on a subscription basis with Fees calculated based on the total number of Authorized Users (“User Fees”) and Fees calculated based on the Customer’s Account activity and usage of certain features of the Ricochet360 Platform (“Usage Fees”). Additional Fees may include certain one-time set up Fees, paid customer service Fees, and such other Fees as may be set forth in the applicable Service Order. Customer is responsible for and obligated to pay for all Fees incurred on Customer’s Account. Speed to Contact reserves the right to revise Fees associated with the Ricochet360 Platform at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior notice to Customer, with such revised Fees to be applied to Customer upon Customer’s next monthly, quarterly, or annual Subscription Period (as the case may be) and with respect to any additional Authorized Users added to Customer’s Account during the then current monthly, quarterly, or annual Subscription Period.

6.3. User Adjustments.

(a) Additional Users. Customer may subscribe to additional Authorized Users at https://ahoy.ricochet.me. Customer shall pay an additional monthly User Fees per Authorized User per month for each additional Authorized User over the number of Authorized Users set forth in the applicable Service Order. Such additional Authorized Users added prior to the monthly billing date will be billed a prorated amount based on the remaining days of the billing period for the first month and thereafter shall be incorporated into the total number of Authorized Users for the remaining duration of the then-current and applicable renewal Subscription Period, except for the Variance or Seasonal Users, unless Customer gives prior written notice to change the number of Authorized Users at least thirty (30) days prior to the Renewal Date.

(b) User Variance. Customer cannot decrease the number of Authorized Users below the number of Authorized Users set forth in the applicable Service Order (the “Minimum Authorized Users”) and will be subject to the total amount of User Fees for the Minimum Authorized Users for the duration of the Subscription Period. If Customer has increased the number of Authorized Users during the Subscription Period, then Customer may decrease the number of Authorized Users during the Subscription Period up to 20% less than the highest number of Authorized Users licensed during the Subscription Period but in no event less than the Minimum Authorized Users (e.g. if the number of Authorized Users increases from 50 Authorized Users to 100 Authorized Users during the Term, Customer is permitted to decrease the number of Authorized Users but not below 80 Authorized Users (a 20% total decrease from the highest number of 100 Authorized Users) for the remainder of the Subscription Period) (the “Variance”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer may add temporary seasonal Authorized Users (“Seasonal Users”) that will be month to month without changing the number of Authorized Users affecting the Variance upon prior written approval by Speed to Contact. Customer may request the addition of Seasonal Users by emailing its Account Manager with the names and emails of the temporary Seasonal Users.

6.4. Payment. Speed to Contact will issue invoices on a monthly basis in accordance with the Service Order. Generally, User Fees for the next month will be charged in advance, and any Usage Fees incurred during the prior month will be charged in arrears on the next billing cycle. Speed to Contact will, and Customer authorizes Speed to Contact to, automatically charge Customer’s selected Payment Method for all Fees when due. All payment obligations are non-cancelable.

6.5. Payment Method. Customer must provide a payment method during the sign-up process at https://ahoy.ricochet.me/ (Customer’s “Payment Method”). By providing Customer’s Payment Method information (e.g., credit card information or bank account information), Customer expressly authorizes Speed to Contact to charge Customer for all Fees incurred in connection with this Agreement. Speed to Contact uses a third party service provider that specializes in payment processing (“Payment Processor”). Customer will provide its Payment Method information directly to the Payment Processor, who stores and maintains Customer’s Payment Method in accordance with accepted security protocols, subject to the Payment Processor’s security and privacy policies. Speed to Contact does not keep or store Customer’s Payment Method information. Speed to Contact periodically communicates with the Payment Processor to request the processing of charges for the Fees in accordance with this Agreement. The Payment Processor then attempts to process the charges and, if successful, deposits the proceeds into Speed to Contact’s account. Customer is solely responsible for any overdraft or other bank fees charged to Customer’s Payment Method. Customer is required to keep its Payment Method information current, complete, and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit/debit card number, expiration date, etc.).

6.6. Taxes. The Fees do not include federal, state, local, and foreign taxes, levies, duties, or other similar assessments of any nature (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is solely responsible for all Taxes assessed by any governmental authority associated with Customer’s purchases and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for Taxes based on Speed to Contact’s net income. Speed to Contact may charge Customer for such Taxes. Customer agrees to timely pay such Taxes and, upon request, provide Speed to Contact with documentation showing the payment or additional evidence that Speed to Contact may reasonably require. The name and address in Customer’s Account will be used for tax purposes, so Customer must keep this information accurate and up to date.

6.7. Overdue Fees. If Customer’s Payment Method is rejected or any Fees are not received from Customer by the due date, then at Speed to Contact’s discretion, such Fees may accrue interest equal to the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum amount allowable under Applicable Laws, compounded monthly, from the due date until paid. Speed to Contact shall be entitled to recover all reasonable costs of collection (including agency fees, attorneys’ fees, in-house counsel costs, expenses and costs) incurred in attempting to collect payment from Customer.

6.8. Payment Disputes. If an invoiced amount is disputed in good faith by Customer, Customer must notify Speed to Contact in writing and provide reasonably detailed support of any invoice dispute within seven (7) days of Customer’s receipt of such invoice. If Customer fails to do so, Customer is deemed to have waived its right to dispute that invoice and the invoice will be deemed accurate and valid. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to waive Customer’s obligation to timely pay any undisputed amounts due.

6.9. Audit Rights. Speed to Contact (or its authorized representatives) will have the right to examine, review, and audit Customer’s compliance with this Agreement at any time during the Subscription Period and for a period of one (1) year thereafter. Customer shall cooperate following any reasonable request by Speed to Contact in connection with such audit. If Speed to Contact determines that Customer has allowed access to the Ricochet360 Platform other than as permitted under this Agreement or has otherwise violated this Agreement, and as a result additional Fees are owed to Speed to Contact, Speed to Contact shall invoice Customer for such discrepancies and such Fees shall be payable pursuant to this Agreement. The results of any audit shall not limit any other rights or remedies of Speed to Contact.

7. CONFIDENTIALITY.

7.1. Definition of Confidential Information. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all confidential information disclosed by a Party (“Discloser”) to the other Party (“Recipient”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer’s Confidential Information includes Customer Data; Speed to Contact’s Confidential Information includes the Ricochet360 Platform and STC Technology; and the Confidential Information of each Party includes, but is not limited to, non-public business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, financial or economic data, and business methods and processes. Confidential Information does not include any information that (a) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to Discloser, (b) was known to Recipient prior to its disclosure by Discloser without breach of any obligation owed to Discloser, (c) is received from a third party without any obligation of confidentiality, or (d) was independently developed by Recipient without reference to or use of Discloser’s Confidential Information.

7.2. Ownership of Confidential Information. Discloser shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to its Confidential Information. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the furnishing of any Confidential Information shall be construed as granting to Recipient either expressly, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license under any intellectual property or proprietary rights now or hereafter owned or controlled by Discloser, nor any right to use, copy, sell, develop, or exploit the Confidential Information made available to Recipient, except to fulfill the purpose of this Agreement.

7.3. Protection of Confidential Information. Except as otherwise permitted in writing by Discloser, Recipient will (a) use Discloser’s Confidential Information only for the purposes of this Agreement and will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information of like kind (but in no event less than reasonable care), and (b) Recipient will limit access to Confidential Information of Discloser to those of its employees, representatives, agents, contractors and subcontractors (“Representatives”) who have a need to know such Confidential Information for purposes consistent with this Agreement and are bound by confidentiality obligations with Recipient that are at least as restrictive as those contained herein. Recipient may also disclose Confidential Information in any due diligence of Recipient in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of all or substantially all of such Party’s assets or substantially similar transaction, provided that such disclosure is made pursuant to a written confidentiality agreement with terms that are at least as restrictive as those contained herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Recipient may not disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information, in any event, to any competitor of Discloser without Discloser’s prior written consent. If Recipient becomes aware of, or has reasonable grounds to suspect, any unauthorized disclosure of Discloser’s Confidential Information, Recipient shall immediately notify Discloser in writing.

7.4. Compelled Disclosure. Recipient may disclose Disclosure’s Confidential Information to the extent required or compelled by Applicable Laws to do so, provided that (a) Recipient gives Discloser prior written notice of such compelled disclosure (unless notice is prohibited by Applicable Laws) and reasonable assistance, at Discloser’s cost, if Discloser wishes to contest the disclosure, and (b) if Recipient is compelled by Applicable Laws to disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information, Recipient shall furnish only that portion of Discloser’s Confidential Information which is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that the Confidential Information will be treated in confidence or cooperate with Discloser to compile and provide secure access to such Confidential Information.

7.5. Equitable Relief. Recipient acknowledges that the remedy at law for breach of confidentiality under this Agreement may be inadequate and that, in addition to any other remedy Discloser may have, Discloser will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including without limitation, temporary restraining orders or preliminary or permanent injunctions (without the requirement of posting a bond or other security or any similar requirement or proving any actual damages), to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of confidentiality by Recipient or any of its Representatives and to enforce this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which Discloser is entitled at law or in equity.

7.5. Return of Confidential Information. Recipient must return or destroy (in Discloser’s sole discretion and direction) any Confidential Information disclosed to it and all copies thereof, promptly within ten (10) days following Discloser’s written demand for the return or destruction of its Confidential Information.

8. DISCLAIMERS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE RICOCHET360 PLATFORM AND ALL RELATED COMPONENTS AND INFORMATION ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, AND SPEED TO CONTACT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEAL OR USAGE OF TRADE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS.

CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE RICOCHET360 PLATFORM FEATURES THAT INTEROPERATE WITH THIRD PARTY APPLICATIONS DEPEND ON THE CONTINUING AVAILABILITY OF THOSE THIRD PARTY APPLICATIONS’ APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (“API”), AND THE RICOCHET360 PLATFORM MAY BE IMPACTED, INTERRUPTED, OR MAY CEASE IF ANY THIRD PARTY APPLICATION CEASES TO MAKE ITS API AVAILABLE AT ALL OR ON REASONABLE TERMS OR IF ANY THIRD PARTY APPLICATION EXPERIENCES AN OUTAGE, MALFUNCTIONS, OR CHANGES THEIR SERVICES, PRACTICES, OR FUNCTIONALITY. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM SPEED TO CONTACT OR ANY SOURCE, WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE AGREEMENT.

9. INDEMNIFICATION.

9.1. Indemnification by Customer. Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Speed to Contact and its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (“Speed to Contact Indemnified Parties”), from and against any third party claims, disputes, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, and other liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising out of or related to (a) Customer’s material breach of this Agreement, (b) Customer’s access to or use of the Ricochet360 Platform other than in accordance with this Agreement and Applicable Laws, or (c) Customer Data, as provided to Speed to Contact or from Speed to Contact’s permitted use of such Customer Data, infringement or misappropriation of the rights of any third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights.

Speed to Contact will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Customer and its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (“Customer Indemnified Parties”), from and against any third party claims, disputes, demands, losses, damages, and other liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising out of or related to (a) Speed to Contact’s material breach of this Agreement, or (b) the Ricochet360 Platform, as provided by under this Agreement and used in accordance with this Agreement, infringement or misappropriation of the rights of any third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Speed to Contact has no obligation to indemnify a claim if it arises from: (i) Customer Data, (ii) Customer’s unauthorized modification or use of the Ricochet360 Platform, (iii) Speed to Contact’s compliance with any design or specifications provided by Customer, or (iv) otherwise relating to Customer’s acts or omissions not in accordance with, or in breach of, the terms of this Agreement or Applicable Laws. If use of the Ricochet360 Platform is, or in Speed to Contact’s reasonable opinion is likely to be, the subject of an infringement claim, then Speed to Contact may, at its sole option and expense: (x) obtain the right for Customer to continue using the Ricochet360 Platform; (y) provide a non-infringing functionally equivalent replacement; or (z) modify the Ricochet360 Platform so that it is no longer infringing while maintaining substantially equivalent functionality. If Speed to Contact, in its sole and reasonable judgment, determines that none of the foregoing options are commercially reasonable, then Speed to Contact may suspend or terminate this Agreement, in which case Speed to Contact’s sole liability (in addition to its indemnification obligations above) will be to provide Customer with a prorated refund of prepaid but unused fees applicable to the remaining portion of Customer’s current Subscription Period. This section states Speed to Contact’s sole liability with respect to, and the Customer Indemnified Parties’ exclusive remedy against Speed to Contact for, any such claims.

9.3. Indemnification Procedures. The Party seeking indemnification (“Indemnified Party”) must provide prompt written notice to the other Party (“Indemnifying Party”) concerning the existence of and indemnifiable claim and provide Indemnifying Party with all documents, information, and assistance reasonably requested and fully cooperate with Indemnifying Party in defending the claim. Failure to give prompt notice shall not constitute a waiver of a Party’s right to indemnification and shall affect Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Agreement only to the extent that Indemnifying Party’s rights are materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. Indemnifying Party shall have full control and authority over the defense of any claim; provided, however, that any settlement requiring Indemnified Party to admit liability or make any financial payment shall require Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate fully, at its own expense, in the defense of such claims.

16. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

16.1. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. If for any reason an action proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, it must be brought exclusively in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in Los Angeles County, California, and each Party irrevocably consents to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue therein. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

16.2. Mandatory Arbitration; Class Action Waiver. The Parties will use reasonable efforts to resolve any dispute between them in good faith prior to initiating legal action. Except for actions (i) to protect a Party’s intellectual property, or (ii) to enforce an arbitrator’s decision hereunder, Any dispute, CLAIM, or controversy arising out of or related to this Agreement must be submitted to and resolved exclusively by confidential binding arbitration before a single neutral arbitrator administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc.

Each Party agrees that the arbitration will be conducted in its individual capacity only and not as a class, consolidateD, or other representative action.

Arbitration may be initiated by any Party by giving to the other Party written notice requesting arbitration, which notice shall also include a statement of the claims asserted and the facts upon which the claims are based. The arbitrator shall not have any power to alter, amend, modify, or change any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. Except as prohibited in this Agreement, the arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief otherwise available in a court of law. The arbitrator must provide detailed written findings of fact and conclusions of law in support of any award. Any arbitrator’s award will be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any Party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Except as may be required by law or to enforce an arbitration award, neither Party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek equitable or injunctive relief as permitted by this Agreement or under Applicable Laws from any court of competent jurisdiction.

16.5. Force Majeure. Neither Party will be in default for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement or any Service Order, if such failure is caused solely by supervening conditions beyond the failing Party’s reasonable control, including without limitation civil disturbances, labor disputes, strikes, government actions, war, terrorism, failure of third party networks or services or the public Internet, power outages, fire, flood, acts of God, or other similar occurrences (each, a “Force Majeure Event”); provided that the Party affected by such Force Majeure Event (a) is without fault in causing such delay or failure, (b) notifies the other Party of the circumstances causing the Force Majeure Event, and (c) takes commercially reasonable steps to eliminate the delay or failure and resume performance as soon as practicable.

16.6. Relationship of the Parties. The Parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between the Parties.

16.11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, under present or future law, such provision will be modified by the court to the least degree necessary to remedy such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision and original intent of the parties to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

16.12. Assignment; Binding Effect. This Agreement is not transferable or assignable by either Party, whether in whole or in part, whether by operation of law or otherwise, for any purpose without the other Party’s prior written consent and any attempt to do so is void in each instance.
