Extended Service Plan. This Agreement includes and incorporates the accompanying Extended Service Plan (ESP) agreement as set <br />forth below. <br />10. Taxes. Any sales, use, withholding and other taxes, duties or government assessments relating to this Agreement or the License, or to <br />the payments or transactions hereunder, shall be paid by you, in addition to all other specific payments required to be made by you under <br />this Agreement. If any taxes or amounts are withheld or deducted by any government or authority from any license fees or payments to <br />PDC, you shall be obligated to pay the taxes or amounts withheld or deducted so that the license fees and payments received by PDC are <br />the full amounts contemplated by this Agreement before such withholding or deduction. If necessary, the license fees and amounts shall <br />be increased (“grossed up”) so that the license fees and payments actually received by PDC after such withholding and deductions are <br />the full amounts. This section does not apply to U.S. federal or state taxes that may be imposed upon PDC based on net corporate <br />income. <br />11. Use of Software; Updates. You may only use the Software in compliance with this Agreement and the Documentation. PDC may <br />issue Updates or revisions to the Software and bulletins or advisories concerning use of the Software (see also, “Updates” in the ESP). <br />Your failure to implement such PDC-provided Updates or revisions within 90-days of PDC providing same to you will constitute a <br />material breach of this Agreement, giving PDC the right to terminate the License for cause and/or to withhold further Service and <br />Support, and you hereby agree to indemnify and hold PDC and the IAED harmless from and against any damages and liabilities that <br />may arise from failure on your part to implement such Updates (see also, ESP Section titled “Unsafe Practices”). Updates to the <br />Software received by you from PDC shall be covered as “Software” under this Agreement, as provided above, in the section of this <br />Agreement entitled “Software.” An exception to this general rule is provided immediately below with respect to refunds, in the section <br />entitled “Limited Software Warranty.” <br />12. Limited Software Warranty. PDC warrants that if the Software does not materially conform with its descriptions in the <br />Documentation and PDC’s published specifications, and if you report in writing to PDC within 30 days after delivery of the Software to <br />you any material failure of the Software to so conform with the Documentation or specifications, then PDC will, at its sole option, and at <br />no cost to you, either: (a) remedy the failure or provide a reasonable work-around solution; or (b) offer to refund License Fees and any <br />pre-paid fees for ESP that have been received by PDC for the non-conforming Software. The refund offer does not apply to free <br />Software Updates provided by PDC under this Agreement. If a refund is offered, you will have 20 days from the date of the offer to <br />either accept the refund or accept the Software “as-is.” If you elect to accept the Software as-is, then PDC’s warranties will be deemed <br />satisfied, and this Agreement will not terminate. If you accept the refund offer, you must return the Software to PDC within 20 days of <br />the date of the offer; the License will terminate; and you must certify in writing to PDC that you have not retained in your possession or <br />control, any copies of the Software and that you have not transferred or disclosed any Software to any third party. Then PDC will refund <br />the License Fee and any prepaid ESP Fees received by PDC from you hereunder. THIS SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND EXLUSIVE <br />REMEDY AND PDC’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY. <br />13. Inspection. PDC may, from time to time and at its own expense and option, inspect your facilities and records to audit your <br />compliance with this Agreement. Although not obligated to do so, PDC may inform you of any improper, unauthorized or unsafe usage <br />of the Software. If you are informed of any such misuse of the Software and fail to correct it to PDC’s reasonable satisfaction within 30 <br />days of written notice from PDC, then PDC may terminate the License. In addition, if you develop, market, or otherwise use a <br />competing or alternative dispatch product, you expressly authorize PDC to enter your facilities to inspect and evaluate the competing or <br />alternative product to determine if any of PDC’s intellectual property or intellectual property rights are being violated. <br />14. DISCLAIMER OF OTHER PDC WARRANTIES. PDC MAKES NO WARRANTY, REPRESENTATION OR PROMISE NOT <br />EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY, SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED <br />“AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. PDC DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ANY AND ALL IMPLIED <br />WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR <br />PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. PDC DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE OR DOCUMENTATION WILL <br />SATISFY YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR THAT THEY ARE WITHOUT ERROR, OMISSION, DEFECT OR DEFICIENCY, OR <br />THAT THE OPERATION OF SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE. <br />15. LIMITATION ON PDC LIABILITY. THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF PDC ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS <br />AGREEMENT OR THE SOFTWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION OR CLAIM, WHETHER CONTRACT, <br />WARRANTY, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, MALPRACTICE, INDEMNITY, AND/OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT <br />ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM PDC’S FAULT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR PRODUCT LIABILITY, <br />SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF THE SOFTWARE LICENSE FEE PAID BY YOU TO PDC DURING THE TWELVE <br />MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SUCH CLAIM. PDC SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE BE LIABLE FOR ANY <br />SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF PDC HAS BEEN ADVISED OF <br />THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. PDC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY CLAIM, <br />LIABILITY OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR ANY RELIANCE <br />THEREON. PDC IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST PROFITS OR REVENUE, LOSS OF USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR OTHER <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 81CC6DDE-9DF1-4223-9E3B-9E3A97F4F5FB
