The Site is copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise protected, and owned or licensed by Resolve. Nothing in this Agreement grants Customer or any Authorized User an express or implied right to use any Resolve intellectual property except as set forth in section 3.1 above. All proprietary rights in the Services, including the Software and any aggregate usage data, traffic patterns, and Aggregate Content collected by Resolve in connection with use of the Services, will be the sole and exclusive property of Resolve.

WARRANTIES AND LIABILITY.

7.1 Limited Warranty

Each Party warrants that it has all necessary authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement. Resolve represents and warrants that (1) the Services will perform substantially in accordance with the Documentation under normal circumstances and when used in accordance with this Agreement and applicable Documentation, and (2) the Services provided hereunder will be performed in a professional manner in accordance with prevailing industry standards. Provided that Customer notifies Resolve of any breach of the foregoing warranty during the Term, Resolve shall, as Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, provide the support services set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement. The Services may contain links to sites on the Internet that are owned and operated by third parties. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Resolve is not responsible for the availability of, or the content located on or through, any such external site.

7.2 Disclaimer

The Services are provided “as is”. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, Resolve disclaims all other warranties and conditions, express or implied. Resolve expressly disclaims any implied warranties, including the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. Resolve does not warrant that the operation of the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free. Specifically, third-party content and applications are provided “as-is,” exclusive of any warranty. Resolve disclaims all liability for any harm or damages caused by any third-party networking or hosting providers.

7.3 Liability

Resolve will not be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages of any nature (including Customer’s loss of construction business or Customer’s failure to use the Services). In any event, aside from its obligations in section 8, Resolve’s total maximum liability arising out of or in any way connected to this Agreement will not exceed the amount paid to Resolve by Customer during the twelve-month period immediately preceding such claim. These limitations will apply whether a claim arises under contract, tort or any other theory of liability. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, which means that some of the above limitations may not apply. In these jurisdictions, Resolve’s liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. The limitations set forth in this section 7 will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in this Agreement is found to have failed of its essential purpose. The Parties acknowledge and understand that the disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability set forth herein form an essential basis of the agreement between the Parties, reflect an allocation of risk between the Parties, and that absent these disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability, the terms and conditions of this Agreement would be substantially different.

8.

INDEMNITY.

8.1

uring the Term, Resolve shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Customer from any loss or damages finally awarded or agreed in settlement arising from a third-party action claiming that the Services infringe any duly issued U.S. patent, copyright, or trademark or misappropriate any trade secret. In addition, if the use of the Services infringes or is enjoined, or Resolve believes it is likely to infringe or be enjoined, Resolve may, at its sole option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue use of the Services as furnished; (b) modify the Services to make them non-infringing, provided that they still substantially conform to the applicable Documentation; or (c) if Resolve, after using commercially reasonable efforts, is unable to accomplish the foregoing remedies, terminate this Agreement and refund to Customer any prepaid but unused Subscription Fees calculated on a straight-line prorated basis for the remainder of the then-current Term. The intellectual property indemnity provided herein does not apply to the extent the alleged infringement arises from (x) any use of the Services not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation, (y) any combination of the Services and third-party applications (including but not limited to Non-Resolve Applications), or (z) any unauthorized modification of the Services. This section states Resolve’s sole and exclusive liability and Customer’s sole remedies for any threatened or actual infringement of proprietary rights.

EXHIBIT A SUPPORT AND
MAINTENANCE
1.

SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT

Resolve has a service-level objective for the Services of 99% availability, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Downtime does not include (i) problems caused by factors outside of Resolve’s reasonable control, or (ii) unavailability of the Services during scheduled maintenance.

2.

SUPPORT

During the Term, Customer and Authorized Users will have access to technical support via telephone, online chat, email, or self-paced online tutorials. Support hours will be standard business hours Monday through Friday, 10am a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) Friday, excluding holidays. Support does not include training sessions on the features and functionality of the Services (implementation) or training in computer skills considered prerequisite to an individual’s ability to use personal computers, the Internet/World-Wide Web, Non-Resolve Applications, Customer’s hardware, and online software. Upon Resolve’s receipt of a support request, Resolve will use commercially reasonable efforts to answer questions and provide standard error corrections to known problems.

3.

DATA SECURITY AND DELETION

During the Term, Resolve shall make commercially reasonable efforts to protect the security of Customer Content/Customer Data. The Services do not replace the need for Customer to maintain regular data backups or redundant data archives.

Resolve contracts with a third-party data center provider to provide technology services such as network connectivity to the Internet for the servers running the Services. Personnel access to the data center used by Resolve for these Services is restricted, and all entrances and common areas are monitored 24x7 via closed- circuit cameras. Public access to the data center is forbidden. Fire-suppression systems are located in the data center, and power systems in the data center are designed to run uninterrupted even in the event of a total power outage. All servers are supplied with Uninterruptible Power Supply (“UPS”) power sources that will continue to run if utility power fails. The UPS power subsystem is fully redundant, with instantaneous failover in case the primary UPS fails. In the event of an extended power outage, Resolve relies on onsite diesel generators. Generators are regularly tested to ensure functionality in the event of an emergency.

Customer allows Resolve after such thirty-day period to delete all Customer Content/Customer Data.

4.

MAINTENANCE

4.1 Unplanned Outages

If a system failure occurs that creates an outage of the Services, Resolve will utilize commercially reasonable means to end the outage as soon as possible. Outages due to the Internet, hosting providers, and/or Customer or Authorized User systems are outside Resolve’s control and, in such event, Resolve may assist the Customer or Authorized User in the diagnosis but may not be able to resolve the problem.

4.2 Preventative Maintenance

From time to time, Resolve or its hosting providers will perform preventative maintenance, such as updating servers and routers with security patches, and software upgrades. Resolve will provide notice prior to any interruption in the Services for scheduled maintenance and will keep any resulting downtime reasonable. Resolve will use reasonable efforts to perform such maintenance during non- peak hours.
