Company will regularly backup Company data and Computer Systems on separate media and in accordance with generally accepted practices.  Company acknowledges that any failure to back-up data and Computer Systems may cause Company to lose data in the event of an error in or other failure of the Licensed Program or any Superna service.  Since only Company, not Superna, can know the value of Company Computer Systems and data, only Company can plan and implement backup plans and safeguards appropriate to Company’s needs in the event of an Error or other failure of the Licensed Program, or if the Maintenance and Technical Support Services cause Computer System problems or data loss.  
  1. Company is solely responsible for the design, repair and configuration of Company’s Computer Systems, Devices, and the planning and implementation of and compliance with Company’s procedures and protocols for disaster recovery and other risks associated with the Computer System and Devices monitored.  Company assumes all risks and liability for results obtained by the use of the Licensed Program and/or implementation of plans or procedures that are in any way influenced by the use of the Licensed Product.   Company shall protect, indemnify, hold harmless and defend Superna and its Affiliates, licensors, and resellers, of and from any loss, cost, damage, or expense, including attorneys’ fees, arising from any claim asserted against Superna, or its Affiliates, licensors, and resellers, which is in any way associated with the matters set forth in this Section 8.1.

8.2 In order to utilize the Optional Features, Company agrees to install all Upgrades and otherwise comply with applicable Documentation for the Licensed Program and such Optional Features, at all times.   All Documentation is provided “as is” and “as available.” Superna cannot guarantee that it is correct or up to date.  Company acknowledges that the Optional Features require computing resources set forth in the Documentation in order to support the Authorized Use Limitation.   If Company commits insufficient compute, memory, and disk resources, or fails to install any Prerequisites, this may result in: (a) loss of entitlement to Maintenance and Technical Support Services; and (2) unpredicted response times and software behaviors; and (3) voiding of the warranties set forth in Section 6.1(a).  Company must routinely install Updates and follow any updates to the Licensed Program for the Optional Features to operate effectively.

8.3 Superna reserves the right, periodically and at any time, to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, functions and features of the Licensed Program in future releases, with notice posted to https://manuals.supernaeyeglass.com/ or through a Product Notification.  You acknowledge and agree that Superna shall have no liability to you for any interruption, modification, or discontinuation of any feature of the Licensed Program or change to these terms.   You understand and agree that Superna has no obligation to provide Updates or Upgrades to the Licensed Program.

Failure, neglect, or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time, will not be construed as a waiver of such party's rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party's right to take subsequent action. No exercise or enforcement by either party of any right or remedy under this Agreement will preclude the enforcement by such party of any other right or remedy under this Agreement or that such party is entitled by law to enforce.

13.10 Equitable Relief:  The obligations of Company under Sections 3.3, 8 and 10 hereof are of a special and unique character which gives them a peculiar value to Superna and its Affiliates, licensors, and resellers for which neither Superna nor these third parties can be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in the event Company breaches such obligations.  Therefore, Superna and its Affiliates, licensors, and resellers, in addition to other remedies which may be available, shall each be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief in the event of the breach or threatened breach of such obligations.

13.11 Governing Law:  This Agreement shall be governed by the substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, U.S.A., without regard to any conflict of law provisions.  This Agreement will not be governed by the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, or by the Uniform Commercial Code, the application of which are expressly excluded.  The parties agree that sole jurisdiction and venue for any dispute relating to this Agreement shall be in the state courts of Massachusetts or the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.

The section and paragraph headings used in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

13.15 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (and Exhibits hereto) contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous communications, representations, understandings, and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to such subject matter. No terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgement, or other business form that Company may use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will have any effect on the rights, duties, or obligations of the parties under, or otherwise modify, this Agreement, regardless of any failure of Superna to object to such terms, provisions, or conditions. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement may not be amended, except by a writing signed by both parties.

13.16 Translation:  This Agreement has been prepared, and shall be interpreted, in the English language.  Any translation of this Agreement into any other language is solely for the convenience of Company.  In the event of an inconsistency between clauses of this English version and any translation into another language, the English language clause shall prevail.

                 a. during the term of any applicable Service Order, (the “Professional Services Warranty Period”), Services shall be performed in a reasonable and skillful manner, consistent with generally accepted industry standards.

      2. SUPERNA, ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS AND RESELLERS, MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT THE DELIVERABLES AND/OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WILL MEET COMPANY’S REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE DELIVERABLES AND/OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURED FROM ALL POSSIBLE VULNERABILITIES , OR ERROR FREE, THAT ANY SYSTEM DATA OR REGISTRATION INFORMATION STORED BY SUPERNA WILL BE SECURE FROM ALL POSSIBLE VULNERABILITIES, ACCURATE OR RELIABLE; NOR DOES SUPERNA MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE LICENSED PRODUCT AND/OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW; AND
      3.
