The Receiving Party shall, at all times, both during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, use reasonable efforts to keep in confidence and trust all of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information received by it. The Receiving Party shall not use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party other than as necessary to fulfill the Receiving Party’s obligations or to exercise the Receiving Party’s rights under this Agreement. Each party agrees to secure and protect the other party’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care and in a manner consistent with the maintenance of such party’s own Confidential Information (but in no event less than reasonable care), and to take appropriate action by instruction or agreement with its employees, Affiliates or other agents who are permitted access to the other party’s Confidential Information to satisfy its obligations under this Section. The Receiving Party shall not disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any person or entity other than its officers, employees, affiliates and agents who need access to such Confidential Information in order to effect the intent of this Agreement and who are subject to confidentiality obligations at least as stringent as the obligations set forth in this Agreement.

    • 3.3 Exceptions to Confidential Information. The obligations set forth in Section 3.2 (Non-Disclosure) shall not apply to the extent that Confidential Information includes information which: (a) was known by the Receiving Party prior to receipt from the Disclosing Party either itself or through receipt directly or indirectly from a source other than one having an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; (b) was developed by the Receiving Party without use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (c) becomes publicly known or otherwise ceases to be secret or confidential, except as a result of a breach of this Agreement or any obligation of confidentiality by the Receiving Party.

If the foregoing assignment and license are not enforceable, Customer agrees to waive and never assert against Company those non-assignable and non-licensable rights, title and interest. Customer agrees to execute any documents or take any actions as may reasonably be necessary, or as Company may reasonably request, to perfect ownership of such rights. If Customer is unable or unwilling to execute any such document or take any such action, Company may execute such document and take such action on Customer’s behalf as Customer’s agent and attorney-in-fact.

Any visit to Customer’s facilities under this Section shall be subject to Customer’s on site regulations and shall occur at a mutually agreed upon day and time no earlier than 10 days after notice from Company. Alternatively, Company may request that Customer provide a written report as to identity the location of the computers with the Software (detailed on a monthly basis) in order to verify compliance with the license granted herein. If an audit reveals an overuse of licenses, Company shall issue an invoice for the number of licenses equal to the number of such excess computers at the then-current rate for the Software and Customer shall pay such invoice within thirty (30) days of date of invoice.

For purposes of confirmation or enforcement of any arbitration award, and for purposes of any proceedings to seek injunctive relief pursuant to Section 16(d), the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consent to venue in Hennepin County, Minnesota (and hereby expressly consent, and waive any claims of forum non conveniens with respect to such venue or any other objections to subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction and venue in such courts) and to the exclusive jurisdiction of: (a) the U.S. District Court of Minnesota, Minneapolis Division, if such jurisdiction exists; and (b) otherwise in the Minneapolis state court of competent jurisdiction located in Hennepin County, Minnesota for all litigation that may be brought with respect to, and the transactions and relationships contemplated by, the Agreement or the Purchase Agreement. The parties further consent to the jurisdiction of any state court located within a district that encompasses assets of a party against which a judgment has been rendered for the enforcement of such judgment against the assets of such party. The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to the Agreement or the Purchase Agreement.

  16. Arbitration.

    • (a) IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PROMISES IN THIS AGREEMENT, CUSTOMER AND COMPANY AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CONTROVERSIES, CLAIMS, OR DISPUTES RELATED TO A CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT) THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT, OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, VALIDITY, EXECUTION, INTERPRETATION OR PERFORMANCE THEREOF, SHALL BE SUBJECT TO BINDING ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, 9 U.S.C. § 1 ET SEQ., TO THE EXCLUSION OF STATE LAWS INCONSISTENT THEREWITH.

    • (b) Procedure. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL BE ADMINISTERED BY JAMS (FORMERLY KNOWN AS JUDICIAL ARBITRATION AND MEDIATION SERVICES, INC.) IN HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA AND THAT THE NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR WILL BE SELECTED IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH JAMS’S APPLICABLE RULES. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO DECIDE ANY MOTIONS BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION, INCLUDING MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND/OR ADJUDICATION AND MOTIONS TO DISMISS AND DEMURRERS, PRIOR TO ANY ARBITRATION HEARING. CUSTOMER ALSO AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO AWARD ANY REMEDIES, INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS, AVAILABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT THE DECISION OF THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE IN WRITING. THE ARBITRATOR’S AWARD MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION.

    • (c) Remedy. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND THIS AGREEMENT, ARBITRATION SHALL BE THE SOLE, EXCLUSIVE AND FINAL REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND COMPANY.

    • (d) Availability of Injunctive Relief. BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY PARTY MAY PETITION A COURT FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF WHERE EITHER PARTY ALLEGES OR CLAIMS A VIOLATION OF ANY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND COMPANY OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT REGARDING TRADE SECRETS OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. BOTH PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT ANY BREACH OR THREATENED BREACH OF SUCH AN AGREEMENT WILL CAUSE IRREPARABLE INJURY AND THAT MONEY DAMAGES WILL THEREFORE NOT PROVIDE AN ADEQUATE REMEDY AND BOTH PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF AN INJUNCTION WITHOUT THE NEED TO POST A BOND. IN THE EVENT EITHER PARTY SEEKS INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, THE PREVAILING PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER REASONABLE COSTS AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES.

  17. No Class Claims. THE PARTIES SHALL BRING ANY ARBITRABLE DISPUTES IN ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL ARBITRATIONS SHALL BE CONDUCTED AS INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS AND EACH RESOLVED IN A SINGLE BINDING ARBITRATION BETWEEN PARTIES. THE PARTIES AGREE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE WAIVING VALUABLE RIGHTS SUCH AS THE RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL IN COURT AND THE ABILITY TO ADJUDICATE CLAIMS ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS.

  18. Jury Trial Waiver. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION, OR ANY OTHER PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE AGREEMENT OR THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT A RIGHT TO A JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, AND THAT THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER HAS BEEN ENTERED INTO KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY ALL SUCH PARTIES.
