Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Payments page of Licensee’s MD EMR Systems Service Dashboard, the fees for any subsequent term shall be at the then-current term price on an annualized basis unless MD EMR Systems notifies Licensee of a price change at least thirty days before the end of the then-current term, and shall be due at the commencement of such subsequent term. Licensee authorizes MD EMR Systems to make recurring charges to the credit/debit card listed in the Payments page of Licensee’s MD EMR Systems Service Dashboard and if necessary to initial adjustments for any transactions credited or debited in error. This authority will remain in effect until Licensee cancels this License through the Payments page of Licensee’s MD EMR Systems Service Dashboard or changes the method of payment through the Payments page of Licensee’s MD EMR Systems Service Dashboard, in which case this authorization will then apply to such new method of payment as set forth herein. All amounts payable hereunder by Licensee shall be payable in United States funds.

All payments under this Agreement are non-refundable. During the term of this Agreement and for three years thereafter, Licensee will keep current, complete, and accurate records regarding the reproduction, installation, and use of the Licensed Deliverables. Licensee will provide such information to MD EMR Systems and certify that it has paid all fees required under this Agreement within 15 business days of any written request, so long as no more than one request is made in any 12-month period. Licensee will, after reasonable prior notice from MD EMR Systems, provide MD EMR Systems and its representatives reasonable access to Licensee’s premises, records, and personnel so that MD EMR Systems may audit and confirm that Licensee complies with this Agreement.

CONFIDENTIALITY. All information that either party receives from the other that is marked “confidential” by the disclosing party (“Disclosing Party”) or that would reasonably be considered confidential by a party experienced in the industry ( “Confidential Information”) shall be kept confidential, and each party agrees to treat (and take precautions to ensure that its employees treat) the Confidential Information as confidential in accordance with the confidentiality requirements and conditions set forth below. Each party agrees, during the term hereof and for a period of five years thereafter, to keep confidential all Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other party in accordance herewith, and to protect the confidentiality thereof with at least the same standard of care with which it protects the confidentiality of similar information and data of its own (at all times exercising at least a reasonable standard of care in the protection of Confidential Information); provided, however, that neither party shall have any such obligation with respect to the use or disclosure to third parties of such Confidential Information as can be established to: (a) have been known publicly; (b) have been known generally in the industry on a non-confidential basis before communication by the Disclosing Party to the recipient (“Recipient”); (c) have become known publicly; (d) have been known otherwise by the Recipient before communication by the Disclosing Party; (e) have been received by the Recipient without any obligation of confidentiality from a source (other than the Disclosing Party) lawfully having possession of such information. Except as prohibited by applicable law or legal process or to the extent part of an examination by a regulatory or self regulatory body, if the Recipient is requested or required (by deposition, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoenas, regulatory processes (including those of self-regulatory organizations), or similar process) in connection with any proceeding to disclose or otherwise becomes legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, the Recipient shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt written notice and, if requested by the Disclosing Party after receipt of such notice, the Recipient shall provide Disclosing Party with reasonable assistance (subject to reimbursement by the Disclosing Party of all reasonable and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Recipient in providing such assistance) so as to enable the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with this Agreement. To the extent this Agreement applies, if such a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the Disclosing Party waives compliance with this Agreement, the Recipient may disclose Confidential Information, but only such Confidential Information as it is legally required to disclose in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Recipient, and shall exercise reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information disclosed. Licensee’s obligations under this paragraph will survive the termination of this Agreement or of any License granted under this Agreement for whatever reason.

LICENSEE BEARS ALL RISK RELATING TO QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LICENSED MATERIALS AND TO THE ACCURACY AND USE OF THE INFORMATION. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, MD EMR SYSTEMS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ALL ERRORS CAN BE CORRECTED, OR THAT OPERATION OF THE LICENSED DELIVERABLES SHALL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. Because some states may not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, such limitation may not apply in its entirety to Licensee. Any warranties made in this Agreement are for the benefit of Licensee only.

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL MD EMR SYSTEMS, ITS SUPPLIERS, MEMBERS, SHAREHOLDERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES DUE TO LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF OR RELIANCE UPON THE LICENSED DELIVERABLES OR INFORMATION, EVEN IF MD EMR SYSTEMS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE AND CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT DESPITE ANY FAILURE OF CONSIDERATION OR OF AN EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.

GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, U.S.A., without regards to any choice of laws provisions thereof.

REMEDIES. Licensee agrees that the obligations of Licensee provided herein are necessary and reasonable in order to protect MD EMR Systems and its business interests, and Licensee expressly agrees that monetary damages alone may be inadequate to compensate MD EMR Systems for any breach by Licensee of its covenants and agreements set forth herein. Accordingly, Licensee acknowledges that the unauthorized use, transfer, or disclosure of the Licensed Deliverables, or copies thereof will (a) substantially diminish the value to MD EMR Systems of the proprietary interest that are the subject of this Agreement; (b) render MD EMR Systems’s remedy at law for such unauthorized use, disclosure or transfer inadequate; and (c) cause irreparable injury in a short period of time. If Licensee breaches any of its obligations with respect to the use of the Licensed Deliverables, MD EMR Systems shall be entitled to equitable relief to protect its interest therein, including but not limited to, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without requirement of a bond. For such purposes, the parties hereto agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts found within the State of Texas, and they do agree that venue shall be proper in the County of Travis in the State of Texas. In addition to any other remedies that may be available, in law, in equity or otherwise, MD EMR Systems shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the threatened breach of this Agreement or the continuation of any such breach by Licensee, without the necessity of proving actual damages.

ARBITRATION. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the making, performance, or interpretation of this Agreement, shall be settled by binding arbitration in Travis County, Texas, except any action for injunctive relief that may be brought pursuant to the terms of Section on REMEDIES. Unless otherwise agreed, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be held before three arbitrators, one arbitrator chosen by each of the parties and the third arbitrator chosen by the two arbitrators. Each of the arbitrators shall be chosen from a panel of attorneys knowledgeable in the field of business law in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The parties agree that the arbitrators shall have no jurisdiction to consider evidence with respect to or render an award or judgment for punitive damages (or any other amount awarded for the purpose of imposing a penalty) or any other damages inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The parties agree that all facts and other information relating to any arbitration arising under this Agreement shall be kept confidential to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any ruling rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and non-appealable and shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

ATTORNEY FEES. In case of arbitration or action to enforce any rights or conditions of this Agreement, or appeal from said proceeding, it is mutually agreed that the losing party in such suit, action, proceeding or appeal shall pay the prevailing party’s reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred.

NON-WAIVER. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such provision or any other provision or of the right to enforce such provision or any other provision.

NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person, other than the parties to this Agreement, any right or remedy of any nature whatsoever.

This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, personal representatives, successors, and, to the extent permitted by the Section on ASSIGNMENT.

FORCE MAJEURE. MD EMR Systems will not be liable for, or be considered to be in breach of or default under this Agreement on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by this Agreement as a result of any cause or condition beyond MD EMR Systems’s reasonable control, so long as MD EMR Systems uses all commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance.

RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. Both parties agree that they are independent entities. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between the parties. Neither party shall have power or authority to obligate or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever, except as specifically provided herein.
