- Customer will pay LimeLoop the fees set out in the applicable Order Form or Services Schedule for the Product and/or Services ordered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the “Fees”).

Customer is responsible for the payment of any and all taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal, state or local) taxes based solely on LimeLoop’s income.
- LimeLoop reserves the right to change the Fees and to institute new charges and fees, related to any valued-added improvements to the Services or Products, at the end of the applicable Subscription Duration (as defined in the applicable Order Form or Services Schedule, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Customer (which may be sent by email).

- No later than thirty (30) days following termination or expiration of this Agreement, or the earlier written request of the Party owning the Confidential Information, the Party having received the Confidential Information shall return all of the other Party’s Confidential Information together with all materials in any form or medium containing or derived from such Confidential Information, including, in each case, any copies, in whole or in part, thereof, and cease its use or, at the request of the Party owning such information, destroy the same and certify such destruction to the owning Party within such thirty- (30)-day period.
- Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, all suggestions, solutions, improvements, corrections, and other contributions provided by Customer regarding the Products or Services or any other LimeLoop materials provided to Customer shall be owned by LimeLoop, and Customer hereby agrees to assign any such rights to LimeLoop.

- Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with each Order Form and Services Schedule incorporated herein by reference constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, whether written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. This Agreement may only be amended, modified, or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each Party hereto.
- Precedence. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and an Order Form or Services Schedule, the Order Form or Services Schedule shall control.
- Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or any Order Form, Services Schedule or other ancillary document (each, an “Ancillary Document”), or the application thereof to any person(s) or in any circumstance(s) or jurisdiction, is, for any reason, be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the court making such finding shall have the power, and hereby is directed, to substitute for or limit such provision(s) in order as closely as possible to effectuate the original intent of the Parties with respect to such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) and this Agreement or the relevant Ancillary Document(s), as appropriate, in total, and to enforce such substituted provision(s) or, if such substitution or limitation is not possible, to deem such provision(s) to be deleted from this Agreement or such other Ancillary Document as if never included herein or therein if such court finds that such enforcement does not materially alter the overall intent of the Parties with respect thereto. Subject to the foregoing, the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any one or more of the provisions contained herein or in any Ancillary Document in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity of any other provision of this Agreement or such Ancillary Document in such jurisdiction or of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision in any other jurisdiction.
- Assignment. Neither Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not unreasonably be denied, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that either Party may assign the Agreement in its entirety without such consent to an affiliate or to any successor by way of merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization of such Party or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of such Party. No assignment or delegation shall relieve the assigning or delegating Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section shall be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
- No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
- Relationship of the Parties. The Parties hereto are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement creates an agency relationship, partnership, employment, joint venture or similar relationship between the Parties and neither Party shall have authority to bind, commit, or otherwise obligate the other Party in any manner whatsoever.
- Waivers. No waiver by either Party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No waiver by either Party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach, or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
- Governing Law. The Agreement and all claims arising thereunder shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of law principles.
- Survival. The expiration or termination of this Agreement will not extinguish the rights of either Party that accrue prior to, or any obligations that extend beyond, such expiration or termination, either by their inherent nature or by their express terms. The provisions set of this Agreement that by their nature would survive termination or expiration of this Agreement shall so survive including, without limitation, accrued rights to payment, confidentiality obligations, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.
- Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, when taken together, will constitute one and the same instrument. The Parties agree that the execution of this Agreement or any Order Form, Services Schedule or other Ancillary Document by exchanging pdf signatures, and/or by industry standard electronic signature software and transmission by fax or by electronic mail of an executed counterpart of this Agreement or such Ancillary Document shall be deemed to constitute due and sufficient execution and delivery of such counterpart. In any proceeding arising under or relating to this Agreement, each Party hereby waives any right to raise any defense or waiver based upon execution or delivery of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document by means of such electronic signatures or maintenance of the executed instrument electronically.
