The Company shall have the right to cure any breach within 30 days of its receipt of written notice of such breach from you. With respect to any claim that any of the Services were deficient, you must notify the Company within 5 days of the Company’s performance of such Services. If you fail to give the Company written notice of such deficiency within such 5-day period, the Company will not be required to remedy such deficiency. You agree to give the Company reasonable access to your computer systems, networks and any peripherals, as well as access to your home or office premises if necessary to enable the Company to remedy any breaches of this Agreement.

Not later than 20 days after the Dispute Date, each party shall select for itself a representative who shall have authority to bind such party and shall advise the other party of the name of such representative. In such mediation, the mediator shall review the matter with each party to assist each party to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each position and to attempt to reach a compromise for settlement of the matter. If (a) the parties are unable to agree upon the mediator to use within 25 days after the Dispute Date, (b) mediation is not undertaken in a meaningful way within 30 days after the Dispute Date, or (c) any unresolved dispute remains after mediation, then either party may commence a civil action regarding such dispute. The parties agree that any civil action thereby commenced shall be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in Salt Lake County in the State of Utah, and that the decision of such court(s) shall be final. The parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court(s) and waive any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court(s) or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum and agree not to plead or claim the same. In any mediation, the fees and costs of the mediator shall be borne equally by the parties to the mediation and shall be payable in advance or upon invoice from the mediator, as applicable, and each party shall bear the fees and costs of the party’s own legal counsel and witnesses.

16. COMPLETE CONTRACT

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and integrates all prior understandings and agreements between the parties with respect thereto, whether oral or written. You agree to accept the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to the exclusion of any standard terms you may customarily have for the purchase of services. No other agreement, representations, warranties or other matters, oral or written, purportedly agreed to or represented by or on behalf of the Company or any of its agents, employees and affiliates, or contained in any sales materials or brochures, shall be deemed to bind the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. You acknowledge that you are entering into this Agreement based solely on the basis of the representations contained herein. Further, should any provisions of this Agreement be held void, voidable, or unenforceable for any reason, all remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. To the extent the scope of any provision is too broad in any respect to permit enforcement, the parties hereto agree that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly.

17. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, stockholders, officers, agents and employees from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, related to or arising from: (a) any violation of applicable laws, regulations or this Agreement by you (or any parties who use your account, with or without your permission, to access the Service); (b) the use of the Services or the Internet or the placement or transmission of any message, information, software or other materials on the Internet by you (or any parties who use your account, with or without your permission, to access the Services); (c) negligent acts, errors, or omissions by you (or any parties who use your account, with or without your permission, to access the Services); (d) any and all claims for damage or injury to persons or property or for loss of life or limb whereby you have been found liable to any third party under any product liability, tort liability or similar action that may in any way arise out of or result from or in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from the intentional negligence or willful misconduct of the Company; or (e) claims for infringement of any intellectual property rights arising from the use of the Services, Third Party Software, or the Internet, except with respect to the Licensed IP.

18. APPLICABLE LAW AND TAXES

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, disregarding any rules relating to the choice or conflict of laws. Any and all taxes, except income taxes, imposed or assessed by reason of this Agreement or its performance, including but not limited to sales or use taxes, shall be paid by you.

19. ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign your rights or obligations under this Agreement without the Company’s prior written consent. Subject to this limitation, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, and assigns of the parties hereto.

20. FORCE MAJEURE

The Company shall be excused for the period of any delay in the performance of any obligation under this Agreement when prevented from doing so by a cause reasonably beyond the Company’s control, such as labor disputes, traffic congestion, delivery failures, product shortages, civil commotion, war, governmental regulations or controls, government action, fire or other casualty, weather, or acts of God.

21. WAIVER

The waiver by either party of a breach or a default by the other party shall not be construed as a waiver of any succeeding breach, nor shall any delay or omission on the part of either party to exercise or avail itself of any right, power or privilege operate as a waiver of any right, power or privilege by such party. No waiver, consent, modification, alteration, addition, or change of terms of this Agreement shall bind either party unless in writing and signed by an authorized signatory of the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver, consent, modification or change shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. The Company shall not be required to give notice to enforce strict adherence to all terms of this Agreement.

22. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not render the entire Agreement invalid. Rather, the Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the particular invalid or unenforceable provision, and the rights and obligations of each party shall be construed and enforced accordingly.
