(b). Limited Non-Infringement Warranty. EdTech warrants that it has the right to license to Client the Software and Services as contemplated by this Agreement. EdTech represents and warrants that as of the date the Software and Services is first made available hereunder, when properly used in accordance with the Documentation and this Agreement, will not misappropriate or infringe any third party’s intellectual property rights recognized under any trade secret law, any U.S. copyright, or U.S. patent issued as of the Effective Date.

(c). Limited Privacy Warranty. EdTech hereby recognizes that the Client Data which Client provides to EdTech may include personal information of students. In order for EdTech to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, it is necessary for EdTech to use the Client Data.

In addition, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in whole or in part upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party, in the event the other party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to correct such breach within such thirty (30) day period; provided that EdTech shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice in the event that Client breaches any of its obligations under Section 10. Client further acknowledges that, as breach of the provisions of Section 10 could result in irreparable injury to EdTech, EdTech shall have the right to seek equitable relief against any actual or threatened breach thereof, without proving actual damages.

(b). Liquidated Damages. In the event that Client enters into a multi-year contract with EdTech and Client terminates the contract or any portion thereof, Client agrees to pay EdTech the remaining sum due to EdTech through the stated term of the Proposal/SOW as liquidated damages, as actual damages being impossible to calculate. This clause shall not apply in the event Client terminates this Agreement as a result of EdTech’s breach in accordance with Subsection 15(a) herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Client shall not be liable for said liquidated damages in the event that: (i) Client provides EdTech at least thirty (30) days’ advance notice of termination prior to the effective date anniversary; and (ii) said termination is a result of the non-appropriation of funds for Client’s contract. Client shall not utilize this clause as a right to terminate the contract for convenience. EdTech reserves the right to seek documentation evidencing the non- appropriation of funds.

Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason: (i) all rights and obligations of both Parties (except for Client’s payment of all Fees then owing), including all licenses granted hereunder, shall immediately terminate except as provided below; (ii) within thirty (30) days after the effective date of termination, each Party shall comply with the obligations to return or destroy, at EdTech’s sole discretion, all Confidential Information of the other Party, as set forth in Section 10 (“Confidential Information”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Recipient may disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is necessary for the Recipient to enforce its rights under this Agreement or is required by law or by the order of a court or similar judicial or administrative body, provided that the Recipient promptly notifies the Discloser in writing of such required disclosure and cooperates with the Discloser to seek an appropriate protective order.

(c). Injunctive Relief. Recipient acknowledges that violation of the provisions of this section would cause irreparable harm to Discloser not adequately compensable by monetary damages.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Client agrees that the section titled Limitation of Liabilities will remain in effect notwithstanding the enforceability of any other provision herein.

(g). Waiver. Waiver of any provision hereof in one instance shall not preclude enforcement thereof on future occasions.

(h). Counterparts; Facsimile Signature.

If any purchase order and/or SOW is executed in counterparts, no signatory hereto shall be bound until both the Parties named below have duly executed or caused to be duly executed a counterpart of said purchase order and/or SOW. A signature received by either Party by facsimile is binding upon (the other Party) as an original.

Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason: (i) all rights and obligations of both Parties (except for Client’s payment of all Fees then owing), including all licenses granted hereunder, shall immediately terminate except as provided below; (ii) within thirty (30) days after the effective date of termination, each Party shall comply with the obligations to return or destroy, at EdTech’s sole discretion, all Confidential Information of the other Party, as set forth in Section 10 (“Confidential Information”).
