5. PROPRIETARY AND OTHER RIGHTS

5.1. Zeroe's Intellectual Property Rights. As between Zeroe and Customer, all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services, Documentation, and Zeroe Platform (including all rights therein, and all derivatives, translations, modifications, and enhancements thereof) are, and shall remain, owned exclusively by Zeroe notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Order Form, or statement of work hereunder.

Zeroe alone shall own all rights, title, and interest in and to any suggestions, enhancement requests, feedback, or recommendations provided by Customer or any third party relating thereto.

5.2. Customer Data. As between Customer and Zeroe, Customer exclusively owns all rights, title, and interest in and to all Customer Data.

6. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

6.1. Obligations. Except with the disclosing party's prior written permission, the receiving party shall not disclose or use any Confidential Information of the disclosing party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement to anyone other than to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees, representatives, and advisors (collectively "Representatives") who have a need-to-know such Confidential Information and are bound by obligations of confidentiality at least as stringent as those herein, and provided the receiving party shall remain liable to the disclosing party for any breach of the confidentiality and non-use obligations by any such Representatives. Each party agrees to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information of the other party in the same manner that it protects the confidentiality of its own proprietary and confidential information of like kind (but in no event using less than reasonable care). If the receiving party is compelled by law to disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party, it shall provide the disclosing party with prior written notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at disclosing party's cost, if the disclosing party wishes to contest the disclosure, and any information so disclosed shall continue to be treated as Confidential Information for all other purposes.

6.2. Remedies. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, if the receiving party discloses or uses (or threatens to disclose or use) any Confidential Information of the disclosing party in breach of confidentiality protections hereunder, the disclosing party shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to seek injunctive relief to enjoin such acts, it being specifically acknowledged by the parties that any other available remedies may be inadequate.

7. WARRANTIES

7.1. Zeroe's Obligations. Zeroe warrants, during the Subscription Term, that: (i) Customer's production instances of the Services shall materially conform to the Documentation; and (ii) the functionality of the Services at the time of the Order Form shall not materially decrease during the Subscription Term.

7.2. Procedure. To submit a warranty claim under this Section, the Customer shall provide written notice of a warranty claim specifying the non-conformity. If the non-conformity persists without relief more than 30 days after written notice of a warranty claim provided to Zeroe under this Section, then Customer may terminate the affected Services, and Zeroe, as its sole liability in connection with a breach of this warranty, shall refund to Customer any prepaid subscription fees covering the remainder of the Subscription Term of the affected subscription after the effective date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this warranty shall not apply to any non-conformity due to any modification of or defect in the Services that is made or caused by someone other than Zeroe (or someone acting at Zeroe's direction).

7.3. Disclaimer of warranties. Except as expressly set forth in this agreement, Zeroe does not make any other representation, warranty, or guaranty, as to the reliability, timeliness, quality, suitability, availability, accuracy or completeness of the services, Zeroe platform, updates, documentation, support and/or any other Zeroe services provided or offered hereunder. Except as expressly set forth herein, the services provided hereunder are provided strictly on an "as is" basis and all conditions, representations and warranties, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including, without limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement of third party rights or any warranties arising from usage of trade, course of dealing or course of performance, are hereby disclaimed to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

8. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1. Zeroe's Obligations. Subject to Section 8.3, Zeroe shall: (a) defend Customer, its officers, directors, and employees against any third party suit, claim, or demand (each a "Claim") that alleges the Services used in accordance with this Agreement and the applicable Order Form infringe any issued patent, copyright, trademark or misappropriate any trade secret of, such third party; and (b) pay any court-ordered award of damages or settlement amount which may include any expense, liability, loss, damage, costs or reasonable attorney's fees, each to the extent payable to a third party, to the extent arising from such Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Zeroe reasonably believes that Customer's use of any portion of the Services is likely to be enjoined by reason of any Claims then Zeroe may, at its expense and in its sole discretion: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Services; (ii) replace the same with other products having substantially equivalent functions that are not subject to any Claims of infringement; or (iii) modify the applicable Services so that there is no longer any infringement, provided that such modification does not materially and adversely affect the functional capabilities of the Services as set out herein or in the applicable Order Form. If (i), (ii), and (iii) above are not available on commercially reasonable terms in Zeroe's judgment, Zeroe may terminate the affected Services and refund to Customer the fees paid by Customer covering the remaining portion of the applicable Subscription Term for the affected Services after the date of termination. The foregoing indemnification obligation of Zeroe shall not apply: (1) if the Hosted Application is modified by any party other than Zeroe (or someone acting at Zeroe's direction), but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is related to such modification; (2) if the Hosted Application is combined with other non-Zeroe products, applications, or processes not authorized in writing by Zeroe, but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is related to such combination; (3) to the extent the Claim arises in connection with any unauthorized use of the Hosted Application, or use that is not in compliance with any applicable laws, regulations, and/or Documentation; (4) to any third-party products, processes or materials (except for such third-party items provided by Zeroe within the Services); or (5) to any Claims arising as a result of the content of the Customer Data. THIS SECTION SETS FORTH ZEROE'S SOLE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT.

8.2. Customer's Obligations. Subject to Section 8.3, Customer shall: (a) defend Zeroe, its officers, directors, and employees against any Claim that arises from the Customer Data; and (b) pay any court-ordered award of damages or settlement amount which may include any expense, liability, loss, damage, costs, or reasonable attorney's fees, each to the extent payable to a third party, to the extent arising from such Claims. Customer's indemnification obligation shall not apply: (1) if the Customer Data is modified by Zeroe or by any party under Zeroe's control, without Customer's authorization but solely to the extent the Claim is caused by such modification; or (2) to the extent the Claim arises as a result of any use or disclosure of the Customer Data by Zeroe not contemplated by this Agreement.

8.3. Process. Each party's indemnity obligations are subject to the following: (i) the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifier in writing of any Claims (provided, however, that the failure to give prompt written notice shall not limit the rights to indemnification except to the extent that the indemnifier is materially prejudiced by such failure); (ii) the indemnifier shall have sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations with respect to any Claims (provided that the indemnifier may not settle any Claims that require the indemnified party to admit any civil or criminal liability or incur any financial obligation without the indemnified party's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and (iii) the indemnified party shall cooperate fully to the extent necessary at the indemnifier's cost in such defense and settlement.

9. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY'S TOTAL AND AGGREGATED LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, SHALL EXCEED THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY AND/OR DUE FROM CUSTOMER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE EXISTENCE OF MORE THAN ONE CLAIM SHALL NOT ENLARGE THIS LIMIT. THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT LIMIT CUSTOMER'S OBLIGATION TO PAY FEES LEGALLY OWED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

User subscriptions commence on the subscription start date specified in the relevant Order Form and continue for the Subscription Term specified therein. Unless otherwise provided in the Order Form, user subscriptions shall automatically renew for additional periods of one year on the same terms unless either party gives the other notice of non-renewal or a new price quote at least 30 days prior to the end of the relevant Subscription Term.

Upon any termination for cause by Customer, Zeroe shall refund any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the Subscription Term after the effective date of termination. Termination shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees accrued or payable to Zeroe prior to the effective date of termination.

10.3. Return of Customer Data. The Customer will have a period of 60 days after the effective date of termination of the Agreement ("Transition Period") to download any Customer Data. Upon such request, at no additional cost to Customer, Zeroe will promptly make available for download transactional records from standard objects included in the outbound integrations (e.g., requisitions, orders, invoices, expenses) in industry-standard format (e.g., JSON, CSV) at time of decommissioning along with attachments in their native format (e.g., PDF, JPEG). For clarity, such data will not include system-generated log files or Zeroe-specific configuration data. After the Transition Period, Zeroe shall have no obligation to maintain or provide any Customer Data and may thereafter, unless legally prohibited, delete all Customer Data in its systems or otherwise in its possession or under its control. For purposes of clarification, archival copies of Customer Data will be maintained subject to Zeroe's standard data backup and retention processes and subject to Zeroe's confidentiality obligations herein.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, in no event shall Zeroe be require
