Without limiting the foregoing, Dosable Technology is Dosable’s Confidential Information, and the terms (but not the existence) of the Agreement will be kept confidential as each party’s Confidential Information. However, Confidential Information does not include information that: (1) is or becomes generally known and available to the public through no act of the Receiving Party; (2) was already in the Receiving Party’s possession without a duty of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party, as shown by the Receiving Party’s contemporaneous records; (3) is lawfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party who has the express right to make such disclosure; or (4) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without breach of an obligation owed to the Disclosing Party. Customer Data is not Confidential Information and Dosable’s obligations regarding Customer Data are specifically addressed in Section 6.3.
6.2.Use Maintenance.Neither party shall use the Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose except to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under the Agreement. Neither party shall disclose, or permit to be disclosed, either directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information of the other party, except: (A) to its advisors, or prospective investors or purchasers, in each case subject to written obligations of confidentiality, or (B) where the Receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information, notwithstanding the Receiving Party’s having given the Disclosing Party prior notice of such legally compelled disclosure and a reasonable opportunity for Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or other confidential treatment for such Confidential information (if permitted by applicable law). Each party will take reasonable measures and care to protect the secrecy of, and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of the other party’s Confidential Information, and will take at least those measures taken to protect its own similar confidential information, but no less than reasonable measures.
6.3.Customer Data.Any data submitted by Customer to the Platform and any data returned from the Platform to Customer based on the results of such submitted data is “Customer Data”. As between Dosable and Customer, Customer retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the Customer Data.

Upon expiration or termination of the Agreement, Dosable will delete and erase any Customer Data from the Platform upon Customer’s request. Customer hereby authorizes Dosable to access, use, process and store Customer Data to perform or provide the Services and perform its obligations hereunder.

Customer represents and warrants to Dosable that it has the legal right and authorization to provide all Customer Data to the Platform for use as set forth in the Agreement. Dosable may de-identify or anonymize Customer Data such that it is no longer considered personally identifiable information (such data, “Dosable Data”). With respect to Dosable Data created in accordance with the above license, Customer hereby grants Dosable a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-free, right and license to use, copy, and transmit such Dosable Data for internal research, product and service development and improvement purposes.

8. INDEMNIFICATION
8.1.By DosableDosable shall: (A) defend, or at its option settle, any claim by a third party (a “Claim”) brought against Customer to the extent it alleges that the Customer’s (or a User’s) authorized use of the Platform during the Term infringes any third-party’s U.S. patent, copyright, or trademark, or misappropriates a trade secret of any third party; and (B) pay any damages awarded in a final judgment (or amounts agreed in a monetary settlement) in any such Claim defended by Dosable; provided that Customer provides Dosable with (1) prompt written notice of, (2) sole control over the defense and settlement of, and (3) all information and assistance reasonably requested by Dosable in connection with the defense or settlement of, any such Claim. If any Claim is brought or threatened, Dosable may, at its sole option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue to use the Platform; (b) modify the Platform to make it non-infringing; (c) replace the affected aspect of the Platform with non-infringing technology having substantially similar capabilities; or (d) if none of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate the Agreement with notice to Customer and no further liability. However, Dosable has no obligation to indemnify Customer to the extent any Claim arises in connection with: (i) any use of the Platform in combination with software, products or services not provided by Dosable to the extent that the Platform would not be infringing but for such combination or modification; (ii) Customer’s failure to use the Platform in accordance with the Agreement; or (iii) for any claims related to Customer Data.

To the extent applicable, Customer will obtain Dosable’s prior written consent to any settlement which is not exclusively a monetary settlement or any judgment in which Customer agrees to any finding of fault of Dosable or defect in the Platform or which would otherwise affect Dosable’s rights. Dosable will promptly notify Customer in writing of any claim subject to this indemnification, promptly provide Customer with the information reasonably required for the defense of the same, and grant to Customer exclusive control over its defense and settlement, provided that Dosable’s failure to promptly notify the Customer will in no way diminish Dosable’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent Customer is materially prejudiced by such failure. Customer shall defend or, at its option, settle, any Claim brought against Dosable by a third party. Customer will pay all damages finally awarded against Dosable (or the amount of any settlement entered into or approved in writing by Customer) with respect to any Claim. Dosable shall provide Customer with: (1) prompt written notice of; (2) sole control over the defense and settlement of; and (3) all information and assistance reasonably requested by Customer in connection with the defense or settlement of, any such Claim.

CUSTOMER AND DOSABLE AGREE THAT DOSABLE IS NOT PROVIDING, TO CUSTOMER OR ANYONE ELSE, MEDICAL OR OTHER HEALTHCARE ADVICE OR LEGAL ADVICE.

9.2.Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF BUSINESS, REVENUE, PROFITS, GOODWILL, DATA, OR ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE, AND COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE AGREEMENT, HOWEVER CAUSED, AND BASED ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS
11.1.Assignment.Neither party may assign the Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under the Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, except that Dosable may assign the Agreement without the consent of Customer as part of a corporate reorganization, or upon a change of control, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of its business or assets related to the Agreement, or a similar transaction or series of transactions. Subject to the foregoing, the Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
11.2.Force Majeure.Neither party will be liable for any failure or delay in its performance under the Agreement due to any cause beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation an act of war, terrorism, act of God, earthquake, flood, embargo, riot, sabotage, pandemic, labor shortage or dispute, governmental act or failure or degradation of the Internet. The delayed party shall give the other party notice of such cause and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to correct such failure or delay in performance.
11.3.Modifications.Dosable may modify these Terms from time to time with prior written notice to Dosable customers.
11.4.Publicity.Dosable may use Customer’s Marks as a reference for marketing or promotional purposes on Dosable’s website and in other communication with existing or potential Dosable customers, subject to any written trademark policies Customer may provide Dosable in writing, with reasonable advance notice.
11.5.Referral of Patients; Government Investigations.The parties agree that no part of the Agreement should or may be construed to induce or encourage the referral of patients or the purchase of health care services or supplies except in compliance with applicable law. No payment under the Agreement is in exchange for the referral of patients, if any, or in exchange for purchasing, leasing or ordering services from Customer, Dosable, or any Affiliate of either party. Customer will inform Dosable, within seven business days, if Customer becomes aware that Customer is subject to a federal or state government audit or investigation.
11.6.Precedence.In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms or any Order Form, the following order of precedence applies (with items with a lower number controlling in the event of a conflict with items with a higher number): (1) the Order Form, and (2) these Terms.
11.7.Governing Law.The Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York without reference to conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Subject first to Section 11.7, if a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under the Agreement, the parties will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York, and the parties hereby agree and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts.
11.8.Arbitration.The parties agree to resolve all disputes arising under or in connection with the Agreement through binding arbitration. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party. The parties will use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the notice is received, either party may commence an arbitration proceeding. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will be conducted in English in the state of New York. If the parties do not agree on an arbitrator, the arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the applicable rules of the AAA for the appointment of an arbitrator. The selection of an arbitrator under the rules of the AAA will be final and binding on the parties. The arbitrator must be independent of the parties. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on both parties, and the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The costs and expenses of the arbitration will be shared equally by both parties; however, if the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the claim or the relief sought in arbitration is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all Fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 11.7 will not prohibit either party from: (A) bringing an individual action in small claims court; (B) seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction; (C) pursuing an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; or (D) filing suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claim. If this Section 11.7 is found to be unenforceable, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 11.6 will govern any action arising out of or related to the Agreement.
11.9.Miscellaneous.The Agreement is the sole agreement of the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings with respect to said subject matter. Customer may not subcontract or delegate any rights or obligations granted to it under the Agreement to any third parties, including its consultants or contractors, without the prior written consent of Dosable. Customer agrees that it is solely responsible for any liability arising out of its approved consultants’ and contractors’ authorized access and use of the Dosable Technology. No terms of any purchase order, acknowledgement, or other form provided by Customer will modify the Agreement, regardless of any failure by Dosable to object to such terms. Any ambiguity in the Agreement shall be interpreted without regard to which party drafted the Agreement. There are no third party beneficiaries to the Agreement. The Agreement may only be amended by a writing signed by both parties. The Agreement may be executed in counterparts. Any required notice shall be given in writing by customary means with receipt confirmed at the address of each party set forth in the Order Form, or to such other address as either party may substitute by written notice to the other. Notices will be deemed to have been given at the time of actual delivery in person, one day after delivery to an overnight courier service, or three days after deposit in certified mail. The relationship between the parties shall be that of independent contractors. Dosable may use subcontractors or otherwise delegate aspects of its performance under the Agreement; provided that Dosable is responsible hereunder for any such subcontractor’s performance. Waiver of any term of the Agreement or forbearance to enforce any term by either party shall not constitute a waiver as to any subsequent breach or failure of the same term or a waiver of any other term of the Agreement. Any provision found to be unlawful, unenforceable or void shall be severed from the remainder of the Agreement and the remainder of the Agreement will continue in full force and effect without said provision. The parties agree to comply with all applicable export control laws and regulations related to their performance of the Agreement.
