Employee Navigator also provides certain services related to the Employee Navigator Solutions, including Support Services, Training Services, and Professional Services, as further described in Article 4 below (collectively, the “Services”). When taken together, these Master Terms & Conditions and any Orders, the Employee Navigator Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Legal Notice, and any other applicable terms, arrangements or agreements of Employee Navigator and any revisions and amendments thereto shall be referred to as the “Agreement”.

If you don’t agree to the new terms, you must stop using the Employee Navigator Solutions and Services and inform Employee Navigator. Any updates and revisions to the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services are also subject to the revised terms unless other terms accompany the updates, in which case, those other terms apply as well.

Employee Navigator may release the Employee Navigator Solutions or their features in a preview or beta version, which may not work correctly or in the same way the final version may work or may never be made generally available.

3.2. Subscription Grant. Effective upon the complete execution of an applicable, valid Subscription Order and subject to termination in accordance with the Agreement, Employee Navigator grants to Subscriber, during the Term, a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right (without further right to grant access or use, sublicense, distribute, transfer or transmit, except as expressly permitted herein) to access and use the Employee Navigator Solutions, solely in connection with Subscriber’s permitted use to: (i) permit the Authorized Users (as defined below) to access and use the SaaS Solutions described on such Subscription Order; (ii) permit the Authorized Entities and their Authorized Users access to and use of the Employee Navigator Solutions solely for the purpose of such Authorized Entities’ internal business operations and solely for administering such Authorized Entities’ benefit plans for the benefit of its employees in the United States; (iii) permit the Authorized Entities and their Authorized Users to disclose and distribute to Subscriber’s Clients and Client-prospects the Employee Navigator Solutions Output solely in connection with providing services to such Clients or conducting marketing activities targeted at such Clients and Client-prospects; and (iv) permit the Authorized Entities and Authorized Users to display and reproduce (including by printing the electronic version) the Documentation as reasonably required to permit the Authorized Entities and the Authorized Users to exercise the rights expressly granted in this Section, in each case, subject to each Authorized Entity and Authorized User first accepting the Subscriber Terms & Conditions shown to such Authorized Entities and Authorized Users upon first accessing a SaaS Solution.

As a condition of each Subscription, Subscriber and its Authorized Users are prohibited from: (a) copying, modifying, displaying, transferring, transmitting or otherwise distributing or providing the Employee Navigator Solution or Service or any portion thereof to any third party other than a Subscriber Client; (b) reverse engineering, decompiling the Employee Navigator Solutions or otherwise attempting recreate the Employee Navigator Solutions or any portion thereof by analyzing or using the software to deconstruct the page logic, user interface or user experience or using Employee Navigator’s Solutions or system to as the basis to develop a competing offering; (c) allowing use of or using the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services for any purpose not expressly permitted in the Agreement; (d) using or exploiting the Employee Navigator Solutions to provide application hosting, business process outsourcing, service bureau, ASP or any other similar or related services to any individual or entity; (e) providing access to the Employee Navigator Solution or Service or any portion thereof to an individual, organization or any entity for the purpose of or with the effect of creating a competing, similar or replacement software or solution to Employee Navigator Solutions or that results directly or indirectly in the loss of business or fees to Employee Navigator (whether or not such fees would be due under this Agreement); (f) removing proprietary rights notices, asset tags, brand labels or marks placed on the Employee Navigator Solutions or any Third Party Materials (as defined in Article 6 below); (g) attempting to circumvent or compromise the security features of the Employee Navigator Solutions or introducing any viruses, worms or other disabling code into any Employee Navigator Solution; (h) exporting or allowing the access or use of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services in violation of any law or regulation, including sanctions or trade restrictions administered, imposed, or promulgated by any national or supranational governmental authority, including (i) the United States Department of the Treasury, including the Office of Foreign Assets Control, the United States Department of State, and the United States Department of Commerce, including the Bureau of Industry and Security, (ii) the United Kingdom’s Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation, (iii) the European Union, or (iv) the United Nations (collectively, “Sanctions Laws”); or (i) being incorporated in or operating from any jurisdiction subject to Sanctions Laws or having controllers, ultimate beneficial owners, executives, management (internal or external), directors, officers and employees who are citizens or residents of, or located in, any jurisdictions subject to Sanctions Laws. If Subscriber is required to provide any governmental or regulatory body with use or access to the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services, then such use and access shall be subject to this Section and the confidentiality obligations of Subscriber. Subscriber shall be responsible for all acts and omissions of its representatives and each Authorized Entity and each of their individual employees and contractors as if performed or omitted by Subscriber. Subscriber shall also be responsible for all acts and omissions of any person or entity that accesses the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services through the Subscriber or its login credentials, directly or indirectly. In connection with the use of Platform Content, Subscriber will not, and will not permit any Authorized Entities, Authorized Users or any third parties: (i) to make copies of Platform Content except for purposes of downloading and/or printing for use by Subscriber or Authorized Entities and/or Authorized Users in connection with their proper use of the SaaS Solution; or (ii) to distribute, disseminate or publish all or part of any of the Platform Content in any hardcopy or electronic form except for purposes of downloading and/or printing for use by Subscriber, Authorized Entities and/or Authorized Users in connection with their proper use of the SaaS Solution. Subscriber will take prudent and reasonable measures to ensure that all Platform Content for the applicable Subscription in the possession or control of Subscriber, Authorized Entities and Authorized Users, regardless of the medium in which it is stored, is returned to Employee Navigator or destroyed upon termination of the applicable Subscription. Employee Navigator does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, currency, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Platform Content. Subscriber further agrees that if Subscriber violates Section 3.3 and provides access to the Employee Navigator Solution or any portion thereof to an individual, organization or any entity, whether internal or external, who is using the Employee Navigator Solution or Services or any portion thereof as the basis to create a competing, similar or replacement product or service to replace or compete with Employee Navigator or that results directly or indirectly in the loss of business or fees to Employee Navigator (whether or not such fees would be due under this Agreement), that Employee Navigator may immediately suspend the license and/or subscription and all user access. Subscriber agrees to not use a reverse proxy to host Employee Navigator Solutions on a domain name owned by Subscriber unless approved in writing by Employee Navigator. All unauthorized reverse proxy traffic may be blocked at the discretion of Employee Navigator.

4. Support and Training. Employee Navigator may provide, through its own employees and certain approved subcontractors, Services for user and technical support for the Employee Navigator Solutions (the “Support Services”) and services related to instruction and training in the use and operation of the Employee Navigator Solutions (the “Training Services”).

5. Employee Navigator’s Ownership. As between Employee Navigator and Subscriber, Authorized Entities and Authorized Users, Employee Navigator exclusively retains all intellectual property rights, patents, trademarks, copyrights, proprietary rights, trade secrets, rights of attribution and authorship and all of their derivative works and improvements including all materials related to the Employee Navigator Solutions and Services and that result from the Services. No right, title or interest is granted or otherwise transferred to Subscriber, any Authorized Entity or any Authorized User except for the access and use rights expressly granted under these Master Terms & Conditions.

6. Third Party Materials. Employee Navigator Solutions and Services also may have embedded software applications, data, exchanges, and insurance products owned or administered by third parties (each a “Third Party” and each such resource, a “Third Party Resource”) or content, guides, publications, benefit plans, insurance or other services added or linked into the platform by the Subscriber, users or Employee Navigator and other resource materials owned by third parties (“Third Party Content” and together with the Third Party Resources referred to as “Third Party Materials”). Employee Navigator disclaims any liability that results directly or indirectly from the integration, incorporation, use or reliance upon any Third Party Materials and/or the implementation or processing of or output resulting from such Third Party Materials in connection with Employee Navigator Solutions and Services. EMPLOYEE NAVIGATOR CANNOT AND DOES NOT WARRANT, AND EMPLOYEE NAVIGATOR EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES REGARDING THIRD PARTY MATERIALS, INCLUDING THE SECURITY OF THE DATA, THE COMPLETENESS OR ACCURACY THEREOF, ACCURACY OF DATA SUPPLIED TO THIRD PARTIES BY EMPLOYEE NAVIGATOR, NON-INFRINGEMENT, FITNESS FOR USE, COMPLETENESS OF CALCULATIONS, BENEFITS PAID OR PROMISED OR ELIGIBILITY. SOME THIRD PARTY APPLICATIONS MAY FALL OUTSIDE OF THE SCOPE OF BUSINESS OF THE SUBSCRIBER AND MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL FEES ASSOCIATED WITH USING THE THIRD PARTY MATERIALS. EMPLOYEE NAVIGATOR MAY GIVE USERS THE OPTION OF PAYING FOR THIRD PARTY MATERIALS OR SOFTWARE ENHANCEMENTS DIRECTLY.

Third Parties may add applications or services to the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services. Subscribers and their Authorized Users may use Third Party Materials which require Employee Navigator to grant Third Parties access to Confidential Information. While Employee Navigator makes every effort to complete a thorough integration with Third Parties, data integrity may be lost, not transformed properly or not transferred completely or at all; therefore, it is the Subscriber’s, the Client’s and/or their user’s responsibility to audit all data transferred through Third Party relationships and Employee Navigator is not liable for any errors related to inaccurate data for any and all Third Party integrations. All Third Party access to Employee Navigator data is subject to the limitations found in Article 9, Confidential Information. Subscriber acknowledges that Employee Navigator has not conducted a review of Third Parties and that we may receive payment from Third Parties and that the payment or inclusion in the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services is not an endorsement of the service or product or evidence of the suitability, quality, security, etc. of the Third Party Materials. EMPLOYEE NAVIGATOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE OR SUSPEND EACH THIRD PARTY SERVICE OR PRODUCT AT ANY TIME.

7. Fees, Taxes & Payments. Subscriber shall pay to Employee Navigator the applicable Subscription Fees, Services Fees, fees for Third Party Materials and any other fees specified on an Order (collectively, “Fees”). Charges shall be due and payable by the Subscriber within thirty (30) days of the date of Employee Navigator’s invoice unless otherwise agreed in the relevant Order (which will typically provide for payment due upon invoicing). Subscriber’s failure to pay any amount within sixty (60) days of the due date may result in the suspension of the Employee Navigator Solutions and Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes regarding any fee amounts.

8. Term & Termination. Unless terminated earlier, Subscriber’s right to purchase and use Subscriptions and Services under these Master Terms & Conditions shall continue hereunder for so long as there is a Subscription Order for any Employee Navigator Solution continuously in effect without dispute (the “Term”). The term of each Subscription shall be the Subscription Term specified in each Order. In the event a term is not stated in an Order, the Subscription Term applicable to such Order shall be one (1) year, which shall automatically renew for successive one (1) year periods unless Subscriber provides notice of non-renewal at least 30 days prior to expiration of the then-current Subscription Term, subject to earlier termination as provided in the Agreement. On or after the expiration of the initial Subscription Term, Subscriber may terminate any Order upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Employee Navigator. Except as otherwise provided herein, Employee Navigator may terminate any Order upon twelve (12) months’ notice in the event Employee Navigator discontinues the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services covered by such Order. If either party materially breaches any obligation hereunder or, in the case of Subscriber, its scope of its permitted access or use, the non-breaching party may provide a written notice specifying the nature of the breach and demand that the breaching party cure the breach. The breaching party shall have fifteen (15) business days from receipt of such notice to cure the breach. If the breach is not cured within such period, the non-breaching party may terminate any existing Order between Subscriber and Employee Navigator by providing written notice of termination. Any attempt to liquidate operations or seek or obtain protection from creditors shall be a material breach subject to the foregoing provisions. In addition, unless otherwise expressly provided in an Order, Employee Navigator shall have the right to terminate telephone Support Services at any time for any reason or no reason upon twelve (12) months’ prior written notice to Subscriber. If these Master Terms & Conditions are terminated by either party or expire pursuant to their terms, then all Confidential Information of each party (as defined below) shall either be (i) returned to the disclosing party, (ii) retained or destroyed consistent with the possessing party’s retention and destruction policies or as consistent with its automatic or ordinary course archiving, back-up, security, or disaster recovery system procedures, or (iii) retained or destroyed as required by applicable law, professional standards, a court, or regulatory agency, provided that any such retained information shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (a) the Client and/or Employee Navigator may reuse and/or reassign and/or retain Client Data (for example in the case of a broker of record change); and (b) Employee Navigator may destroy Client Data at any time upon its election. Upon termination, Subscriber shall promptly discontinue use of all Employee Navigator Solutions, return all copies of such Employee Navigator Solutions to Employee Navigator and immediately pay all amounts then due and payable to Employee Navigator. Articles 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14 (and any other provision that by its terms reasonably should survive) shall survive the termination or expiration of these Master Terms & Conditions for any reason. Any fees paid by the Subscriber are nonrefundable. Employee Navigator may also delete any Client Data, in its sole discretion, if the Client has been marked or otherwise indicated by Subscriber as inactive or if such Client and/or the relevant Client Data is no longer actively maintained by Subscriber in the Employee Navigator Solutions.

9. Confidentiality. “Confidential Information” will mean all of the information, data, employee records, personally identifiable information and software furnished by one party to the other in connection with the Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and excepting any proprietary financial information, “Confidential Information” will not include information which: (i) is publicly disclosed by the party disclosing the information either prior to or subsequent to the receipt of such information by the receiving party; (ii) is or becomes generally known in the trade through no fault of the receiving party; (iii) is lawfully disclosed to the receiving party without an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information by a third person who has lawfully acquired the Confidential Information; or (iv) was independently developed by the receiving party; provided, however, that the receiving party hereby stipulates and agrees that, if it seeks to disclose, display, divulge, reveal, report, publish or transfer, for any purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information, such receiving party will bear the burden of proving that any such information was independently developed or is or became publicly available without any such breach. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties stipulate and agree that “Confidential Information” will specifically include: (i) the Employee Navigator Solutions and Services; (ii) all passwords provided by Employee Navigator allowing Authorized Users access to a SaaS Solution; and (iii) any data provided by Subscriber and/or Clients (including for example their employees) to Employee Navigator or input into the Employee Navigator Solutions by Subscriber or Clients (or for example their employees) in connection with Subscriber’s and Clients’ (and their employees’) use of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services hereunder (collectively “Client Data”). A party’s failure to mark any Confidential Information as confidential, protected or proprietary will not affect its status as Confidential Information under these Master Terms & Conditions. Subscriber understands that Employee Navigator Solutions and Services are not designed to maintain personal or protected health information (PHI) such as medical/clinical Information on members within the system and Employee Navigator is not liable for any disclosure of any such information, whether intentional, unintentional or related to a security incident or data breach.

Each party acknowledges that, in performing its obligations and exercising its rights hereunder, a party may acquire the Confidential Information of the other party. As a material inducement to the other party to disclose such Confidential Information, each party covenants and agrees that it will not, except with the prior written consent of the other party, at any time directly by itself or indirectly through any agent or employee: (i) reproduce, distribute, transmit, publicly display, modify, create derivative works based upon, or disclose, deliver, display, divulge, reveal, report, publish or transfer to any person or entity, for any purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information of the other party, (ii) use Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose other than in connection with the performance of its obligations or the exercise of its rights under the Agreement; (iv) use, store, handle or share Client Data that includes personal information in a manner that conflicts with or is inconsistent with the Employee Navigator Privacy Policy; or (v) use Confidential Information to solicit insurance products or payroll services of Subscriber. The preceding restrictions (i) do not preclude Employee Navigator from developing software enhancements which may be offered to Subscribers and (ii) do not preclude a party from disclosing the Confidential Information of the other party as required by law or regulation (such as pursuant to an ordinary course regulatory examination). Each party further covenants and agrees to handle the Confidential Information of the other party in the same manner that the party handles its own most confidential information and, in any event, to take all steps reasonably necessary to preserve the confidentiality of Confidential Information, including adopting appropriate confidentiality policies, inserting appropriate confidentiality terms in agreements with all employees and subcontractors, and maintaining Confidential Information in a manner designed to assure that it will not be used or disclosed improperly.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Employee Navigator shall have the right, and Subscriber hereby grants to Employee Navigator a royalty-free, non-exclusive license, to access, compile, aggregate and use Client Data for statistical analysis, benchmarking and research purposes, provided, that the Client Data is compiled and presented in aggregate form only, without specifically identifying or being capable of specifically identifying (i) the source of the Client Data; (ii) any employee, enrollee, subscriber, beneficiary, or other individual; or (iii) an employer, trade group, or insured. To the extent that any Client Data is compiled or aggregated by Employee Navigator in accordance with the terms herein (collectively, the “Aggregate Data”), such Aggregate Data will be owned solely by Employee Navigator and may be used by Employee Navigator for any lawful business purpose without a duty of accounting to Subscriber or Client. Further, Employee Navigator may de- identify any and all personally identifiable Client Data, and such de-identified Client Data shall not be subject to the provisions of this Article 9.

A party will promptly notify the other party if it becomes aware of any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information of the other party and, at the other party’s request, will take such action as may be reasonably necessary and legally permissible to terminate or remedy any unauthorized use or disclosure that results from any act or omission of the party or any of its employees, subcontractors or agents. If a receiving party is compelled by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction to disclose Confidential Information, to the extent allowed by law the receiving party shall inform the disclosing party by written notice and shall, if permissible, provide reasonable assistance in obtaining and enforcing a protective order or other appropriate means of safeguarding the Confidential Information required to be disclosed. The receiving party may then disclose only so much of the Confidential Information as is legally required to be disclosed.

Subscriber further represents and warrants that (a) it or its Authorized Entities or Authorized Users has the necessary rights to input the Client Data into, and for any personal information included in such data to be used, shared, processed, stored and otherwise handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy, and hereby grants to Employee Navigator all necessary rights to use such data in that manner; b) it has the necessary rights to assign and to grant the rights assigned and granted to Employee Navigator hereunder, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims and restrictions.

11. Injunctive Relief & Indemnities.

11.1. Injunctive Relief. Each party stipulates and agrees that: (a) Employee Navigator will suffer irreparable harm in the event of any breach by Subscriber of the provisions of Articles 3 or 9; and (b) Subscriber will suffer irreparable harm in the event of any breach by Employee Navigator of the provisions of Article 9 and that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate the non-breaching party for any such breach. Accordingly, each party stipulates and agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach (i) by Subscriber of the provisions of Articles 3 or 9 or (ii) by Employee Navigator of the provisions of Article 9, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies or damages available at law or in equity, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction and permanent injunction in order to prevent or restrain any such breach or threatened breach, without the obligation to post bond.

11.2. Indemnification.

11.2.1. By Employee Navigator. Employee Navigator shall defend Subscriber, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and permitted assigns against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought against such party by a third party (each, a “Claim”) and hold harmless and indemnify Subscriber against all losses, liabilities, damages and attorney fees finally awarded against such party by a U.S. court of law, in each case for a Claim alleging that Subscriber’s or its Client’s permitted use of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services infringes the U.S. patent, trademark, copyright or trade secret rights of such third party. The foregoing indemnity excludes any Claim that arises from (a) use of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services in violation of the Agreement; (b) the combination of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services with third party software, hardware, data or processes, if the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services or use thereof would not infringe without such combination; or (c) actions taken in accordance with instructions provided by Subscriber. If Employee Navigator receives information about an infringement Claim related to the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services, Employee Navigator may in its discretion and at no cost to Subscriber (i) modify the relevant item so that it is no longer infringing, (ii) obtain a license for Subscriber’s continued use of such item in accordance with this Agreement, or (iii) terminate Subscriber’s Subscriptions for the infringing portion of the Employee Navigator Solutions or Services upon 30 days’ written notice and refund Subscriber any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of the terminated Subscriptions.

11.2.3. Indemnification Procedure. Upon the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any suit or proceeding against one party (the “Indemnified Party”) by any third party that may give rise to an indemnification obligation or other liability of the other, indemnifying party under this Section (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the existence of such claim and shall give the Indemnifying Party the option, determined in the Indemnifying Party’s sole reasonable discretion, of defending and/or negotiating settlement of the claim or suit with counsel of its own selection in accordance with this Section; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any consent order or settlement that admits wrongdoing or fault by or liability of the Indemnified Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall provide, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost, all reasonable cooperation requested by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such claim and its defense or settlement. A failure by the Indemnified Party to give prompt notice of a claim does not constitute a waiver of its right to defense, indemnification and being held harmless and affects the Indemnifying Party’s obligations only to the extent the Indemnifying Party’s rights are materially prejudiced by the failure or delay.

11.2.4. Exclusive Remedy. This “Indemnification” section states the Indemnifying Party’s sole liability to, and the Indemnified Party’s exclusive remedy against, the other party for any third-party Claim described in this section.
