2.	Scope of License. 
Licensee agrees that it will use the Licensed Software hereunder only in connection with its own normal legal business operations, and it will not, without the express written permission of bigWebApps, Inc., sell, lease, or otherwise provide or make available the Licensed Software to any third party. The Licensed Software and all purchased licenses of the Licensed Software are granted full use to the Licensee and all legal business entities the Licensee owns and operates.

(b)	Term Commitment. The Licensee commits to the quantity of Annual Subscription Fees described in Exhibit A (“Term Commitment”).
(c)	Invoicing and Payment Terms. Before bigWebApps, Inc. furnishes full rights to the Software, bigWebApps, Inc. will require the Licensee to make an initial payment of the Annual Subscription Fee for the first year of Software License. Thereafter, bigWebApps, Inc. may bill the Licensee annually in two months in advance of contract term for each year of Software Licensing. All payments are due net 30 days from the date of receipt of a bigWebApps invoice. If bigWebApps, Inc. does not receive the full amount of payment within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the invoice, an additional two-point-¬five percent (2.5%) (or the highest amount allowed by law, whichever is lower) per month will be added to the unpaid balance of the Licensee and shall be immediately due and payable to bigWebApps, Inc. Licensee shall also be liable for any and all attorney and collection fees arising from bigWebApps, Inc.’s efforts to collect any unpaid balance of Licensee’s account.  Notwithstanding the previous, bigWebApps, Inc.’s remedies for late payments as set out in this Section 3(c) and in Section 5(c) hereof shall be mutually exclusive.
4.	License Activation Date. 
The License Activation Date shall be the first date of the contract term set out in Exhibit A hereto.
5.	 Duration and Termination
(a)	Duration. Unless terminated earlier as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, bigWebApps, Inc. will continue to provide the Licensed Software and the related services set out in Exhibit A attached hereto for as long as the Licensee continues to pay the Annual Subscription Fee during the contract term defined in Exhibit A (“Term”). In the event that the Licensee continues to license the Software past the Term, Agreement shall automatically renew for another (12) month period, unless written notice of termination of the Agreement is given (30) days prior to Term Commitment or Licensee initiates a renegotiation of the terms of the Agreement with bigWebApps, Inc. During any such automatic extended Agreement period, bigWebApps, Inc., at its option, may bill Licensee at the rates contained in this Agreement or at rates in effect at that time. However, rates are limited to and may not exceed 10% of previous years contract with existing purchased services. Any new additional services will be billed at the current scheduled price.
(b)	Voluntary Termination. Effective at any time after the Term Commitment, this Agreement may be terminated by Licensee for any reason upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. Should Licensee terminate this Agreement before the completion of the Term Commitment for any reason other than material breach of this Agreement by bigWebApps, Inc., Licensee shall be responsible for the payments specified in Section 5(e).  bigWebApps may only voluntary terminate this Agreement  if a material breach is found as specified in Section  5 (c).
(c)	For Breach. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party is in material breach of any term of this Agreement and fails to remedy such breach upon thirty (30) days after written notice of such breach by the non-breaching party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, failure to make any payment to bigWebApps, Inc. when due is a material breach of this Agreement on the part of Licensee. 
Should bigWebApps, Inc., as a result of Licensee’s material breach of this Agreement, terminate this Agreement before the completion of the Term Commitment, Licensee shall be responsible for the payments specified in Section 5(e).

(d)	Effect of Termination. Within five (5) days after termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall be blocked from the Licensed Software.
(e)	Early Termination Charges. The rates and discounts set forth in this Agreement are based on Licensee’s commitment to purchase the Software License for the entire Term Commitment.  To compensate bigWebApps, Inc. for any loss related to early termination of the Agreement, and not as a penalty, Licensee -- in the case of its voluntary termination pursuant to Section 5(b) or bigWebApps, Inc.’s termination pursuant to Section 5(c) -- shall pay bigWebApps, Inc. an early termination charge. The early termination charge shall come in effect during the first 90 days of Term Commitment. During this time all fees paid by Licensee for the Term Commitment will be reimbursed to Licensee minus an early termination fee of 25% of such paid fees, with a minimum of $300 of Licensee contract amount. Past 90 days of Term Commitment, all fees paid by Licensee attributable to the remaining portion of the Term Commitment will be reimbursed to Licensee minus an early termination fee of 50% of such paid fees.  The reimbursed amount minus early termination charge shall be paid to Licensee within thirty (30) days after written notice of termination.

(a)	Licensee acknowledges that the Licensed Software,  including all documentation, all screens and formats used in connection therewith, are the exclusive proprietary property of bigWebApps, Inc., and Licensee shall not publish, disclose, display, provide access to or otherwise make available any Licensed Software or documentation thereof, or any screens, formats, reports or printouts used, provided, produced or supplied from or in connection therewith, to any person or entity other than an employee or agent of Licensee without the prior written consent of, and on terms acceptable to, bigWebApps, Inc., which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Licensee may disclose to a governmental or regulatory agency or to customers of Licensee any information expressly prepared for disclosure to such governmental or regulatory agency or to such customer.

The Access Party shall thus take reasonable precautions to maintain the security and confidentiality of the Confidential Information, which precautions shall not be less stringent than those employed, or that reasonably should be employed, by the Access Party to protect its own most proprietary information.
The parties agree that the term “Confidential Information” does not include information if and to the extent: (i) the information is or becomes generally available or known to the public through no fault of the Access Party; (ii) the information was already known by, or available to, the Access Party on a non-confidential basis prior to the disclosure by the Owner Party; (iii) the information is subsequently disclosed to the Access Party by a third party who is not under any obligation of confidentiality to the Owner Party; (iv) the information is required to be disclosed pursuant to an applicable law or regulation, or a judicial process, government investigation, legal proceeding or other similar process; or (v) the information has already been or is hereafter independently acquired or developed by the Access Party without violating any confidentiality agreement or other similar obligation.

Each party therefore agrees that in the event of such unauthorized disclosure or use, the Owner Party may, at its discretion and at the Access Party’s expense, terminate this Agreement, obtain immediate injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, or take such other steps provided for in this Agreement as it deems necessary to protect its rights. If the Owner Party, in its reasonable, good faith judgment, determines that there is a material risk of such unauthorized disclosure or use, it may demand immediate assurances, satisfactory to the Owner Party, that there will be no such unauthorized disclosure or use. In the absence of such assurance, the Owner Party may take such steps provided for in this Agreement as it deems necessary and may, in addition, terminate this Agreement, but only after submitting the controversy to mediation pursuant to paragraph 12(a).

In the event that the parties cannot reach an agreement upon the venue, the AAA will select a location that is most convenient to both parties.  The Mediation shall be conducted by a mutually acceptable mediator to be chosen by the parties.  Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator.  However, if the parties are unable to reach an agreement on the selection of the mediator, the AAA will select the mediator.  Each party will bear its own costs in the mediation, including attorneys' fees, and one-half the cost of the mediator.

Each party shall bear its own costs in the arbitration, including attorneys' fees, and each party shall bear one-half of the cost of the arbitrator.
