Upon the termination of this Agreement, or an Order Form, all rights and licenses granted by Synapture to Customer under this Agreement or the applicable Order Form will terminate. Either party’s termination of this Agreement is without prejudice to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity and does not relieve either party of liability for breaches occurring prior to the effective date of termination. Neither party will be liable to the other for damages arising solely as a result of terminating this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all other remedies will be available to the non-breaching party whether or not the non-breaching party terminates this Agreement for breach by the other party.

10.4 Post-Termination Obligations; Customer Data Retrieval. Upon any termination of this Agreement, Synapture will make all Customer Data available to Customer for electronic retrieval for a period of thirty (30) days. After such period, Synapture may delete any such Customer Data and Synapture will have no obligation to Customer to continue storing such Customer Data. If Customer terminates this Agreement for Synapture’s uncured material breach, Synapture will issue to Customer a pro rata refund of Subscription Fees for Services not provided.  If this Agreement is terminated for any other reason, within ten (10) days after such termination, Customer will pay Synapture all remaining Subscription Fees owed through the end of the Subscription Term under any terminated Order Forms.

THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ALL ATTACHMENTS, SCHEDULES, AND EXHIBITS, CONSTITUTES THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE PARTIES, AND SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AND CONTEMPORANEOUS SALES PROPOSALS, NEGOTIATIONS AND AGREEMENTS, AND ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR COMMUNICATIONS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL APPLY IN LIEU OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN ANY PURCHASE ORDER OR OTHER ORDER DOCUMENT THAT YOU PROVIDE (ALL SUCH TERMS OR CONDITIONS BEING NULL AND VOID). THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED ON, REFERENCED BY OR INCORPORATED INTO CUSTOMER’S PURCHASE ORDER OR OTHER ORDER DOCUMENT ARE EXPRESSLY REJECTED AND SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED AN AMENDMENT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Exhibit A – Service Level Terms

The Services shall be available 99.9%, measured monthly, excluding holidays and weekends and scheduled maintenance (“Availability”). If Customer requests maintenance during these hours, any Availability calculation will exclude periods affected by such maintenance. Synapture will notify the Customer of any scheduled maintenance through www.synapture.fr. Any downtime resulting from reasons beyond Synapture’s control, including any Force Majeure Event, will also be excluded from Availability calculations.

Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, and Synapture’s entire liability, in connection with the failure to meet the Availability requirements (“Downtime”) is to receive a 5% credit of the Subscription Fees for each period of 30 or more consecutive minutes of Downtime provided that (1) the Downtime lasts longer than one hour, and (2) no more than one such credit will accrue per day. Downtime shall begin to accrue as soon as Customer recognizes that Downtime is taking place and continues until the Availability of the Services is restored. In order to receive credit, Customer must notify Synapture in writing within 72 hours from the time of Downtime, and failure to provide such notice will forfeit the right to receive credit. Such credit may not be redeemed for cash. The credits may not cumulatively be applied to exceed one week of Subscription Fees in any given month. Synapture will only apply a credit to the month in which the incident occurred.
