1.0 SUBSCRIPTION TERMS.

1.1 Solution. Your access to and use of the Solution for the given period is defined by a Service SKU that is purchased by You and constitute Your subscription to the Solution for the purpose of this Agreement. The Solution is comprised of Your subscription as described in Your Solution account under subscription section, the Embedded Software (defined below) and the Apps (defined below); but does not include Your internet browser (which serves as the primary access for the Solution) or Gateways (defined below). For the avoidance of doubt, subject to your purchased subscription, the Solution includes without limitation, the Apps, Milestone Kite analytics, algorithms, and applications within the Solution, and upgrades or changes We make to the Solution over time, and all related patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, software, technology, know-how, inventions (whether or not patentable) and all other proprietary and intellectual property (“IP”) rights related thereto. For avoidance of doubt, the Solution does not include hardware (e.g., cameras, etc.) You purchase outside of this Agreement to be used in connection with the Solution, Other Applications (defined below) or any analytics or algorithms related to the foregoing.

(a) License. Subject to Your compliance with the terms and conditions in this Agreement and Your payment of any applicable fees, Milestone grants to You a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable and non-assignable license only to install and use the Solution for Your applicable subscription term set forth in Your Solution account; and for no other purpose or under any other condition whatsoever (“License”). The License does not include any permission to create any Modifications (defined below) of or to the Solution.

The License granted to You and Your use of the Solution is subject to the Milestone Kite Country List (download the Country List at the bottom of this page). The Solution is not expected to be used in counties that are not included in this list.

IN THE EVENT THE SOLUTION IS USED IN COUNTRIES NOT INCLUDED IN THE MILESTONE COUNTRY LIST, MILESTONE DOES NOT WARRANT AND DOES NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY FOR ANY POSSIBLE DEFICIENCY IN THE SOLUTION PERFORMANCE. SIMILARLY, MILESTONE SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO FULFILL THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE SERVICE LEVEL ADDENDUM, cf., SECTION

1.3 BELOW. KITE GATEWAYS DEPLOYED IN COUNTRIES NOT INCLUDED IN THIS COUNTRY LIST ARE NOT COVERED BY THE GATEWAY WARRANTY, AS DEFINED IN THIS AGREEMENT. ANY USE OF THE SOLUTION, INCLUDING ALL ITS COMPONENTS AND KITE GATEWAY, IN COUNTRIES THAT ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE MILESTONE COUNTRY LIST IS SUBJECT TO YOUR OWN RISK AND RESPONSIBILITY.

(b) Apps. In addition to accessing and using the Solution via a web browser, You may download Milestone Kite mobile applications or installable clients to access the Solution (“Apps”). For avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Agreement also govern and control your use of the Apps.

(c) Embedded Software. The “Embedded Software” is the portion of the Solution that is installed on the Gateway. Subject to Your compliance with the terms and conditions in this Agreement and Your payment of any applicable fees (including purchase of the applicable Gateway), Milestone grants to You a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, and non-assignable license only to use the Embedded Software on the applicable Gateway for the term set forth in Your Solution account for the purpose of Your subscription only and for no other purpose or under any other condition whatsoever (“Embedded Software License”). The Embedded Software License does not include any permission to create any Modifications of or to the Solution. We warrant that the Embedded Software will be substantially free from defects in workmanship and materials under normal use, maintenance and service (“Embedded Software Warranty”), for a period of Your subscription as defined in Your Solution account, however not exceeding the duration of Your Gateway warranty, cf., Section 1.11 (Gateway). Should the Embedded Software fail within this warranty period, Milestone or a third-party on behalf of Milestone shall repair, replace or provide an equivalent product/service, all to be determined in Our sole discretion. To start the Embedded Software Warranty process, You must contact Your Milestone Partner for a technical support case to be raised with Milestone which could result either (i) in the software update as defined in this Section 1.1 (c) or (ii) in the Return Material Authorization process (“RMA”) and RMA number for the failed Embedded Software will be issued. Upon receipt of the failed Embedded Software (remotely accessed by Milestone or a third-party on Milestone’s behalf or sent by You in accordance with the RMA instructions) or in the event that Milestone determines in its sole discretion that it will provide an on-site inspection of the failed Embedded Software, Milestone or a third-party shall inspect such Embedded Software to determine if it is proven to be defective. If the Embedded Software is deemed to be defective (to be determined in Milestone’s sole discretion), Milestone or a third-party on Milestone’s behalf shall either repair, replace or provide an equivalent product/service to You. Your exclusive remedy under the Embedded Software Warranty is to receive repaired or replaced Embedded Software or equivalent product/service, and Milestone’s sole obligation and liability under this Embedded Software Warranty is to ensure You are issued repaired or replaced Embedded Software or equivalent product/service.

(d) Ownership. You acknowledge and agree that Milestone, or its licensors or affiliates, owns all right, title and interest in and to the Solution, including without limitation, all related IP rights, text, data, audio, graphics, files, interfaces, algorithms, other information and materials originating in the Solution, and any translations, improvements, corrections, adaptations, derivatives, enhancements, changes, additions, revisions and other modifications (collectively, the “Modifications”) made to the Solution. All rights in and to the Solution not expressly granted in this Agreement are reserved to Milestone and its licensors, and no additional licenses are granted or implied hereunder.

(e) Your Solution Account. Your Solution account describes the terms of Your subscriptions, locations where You will use the Solution, data retention period, restrictions and responsibilities, and other subscription details.

(f) Milestone Partner. In order to implement, access and use the Solution, You need to work with Your Milestone Partner (defined as Your Milestone reseller or the company that orders via a Milestone Distributor Partner and helps you to select and manage Your subscription for the Solution, necessary hardware, installation, maintenance, infrastructure and/or support) to assist in ordering, selecting, managing, installing and setting up Your subscription, hardware and network and providing support and maintenance if You have any issues with the Solution. With respect to the Solution and the Gateway, You agree and acknowledge that, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing separately between You and Your Milestone Partner, in no event will Your Milestone Partner be deemed to add or grant You any warranty which is greater than those described in this Agreement solely by virtue of the fact that Your Milestone Partner has acted in a capacity of integrator or reseller to You, nor will it be deemed to assume any liability in excess of what Milestone assumes under this Agreement, except in a case of Your Milestone Partner’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. In particular, You agree that the exclusions and limitation of liability under Section 1.11 (Gateway) and Section 4.0 (Disclaimers; Limitations of Liability; Indemnification) shall operate to the benefit of Your Milestone Partner to the same extent such provisions operate to the benefit of Milestone. Milestone is not responsible for ordering, selecting, setting up or managing Your cameras or network infrastructure, and You are responsible for ensuring You have the necessary systems, hardware, software, cameras and network connectivity necessary to use the Solution. This Agreement exclusively governs Your access to and use of the Solution, and any legal terms agreed between You and a Milestone Partner concerning the Solution or Your subscription will have no legal force or effect on Milestone and Your subscription. Milestone is not a party to the supply and/or service agreement between You and Your Milestone Partner and, therefore, Milestone is not subject to and Milestone is not responsible for the terms of such agreement, neither directly nor indirectly. The terms and conditions under which the Solution is provided to You by Milestone are defined by this Agreement solely.

(g) Updates. As the Solution is hosted in a cloud environment, Milestone may provide automatic updates. Updates of the Apps on Your devices and Embedded Software on Your Gateways may be required for continued use of the Solution. If You do not update the Apps and/or Embedded Software, Milestone does not guarantee continued support for the outdated versions of the Apps, Gateways and Embedded Software, and Your access and use of the Solution with those outdated Apps, Gateways and Embedded Software may be affected.

1.2 Your Content. “Your Content” is all of Your data (including third-party data) in the Solution, which includes the Video Data (defined below), connected devices data, user information, access-control information (physical access credentials), analytics data, structured data and information related to the data and associated with “Other Applications” (defined as any “internet-of-things” connected devices, including without limitation, access control systems, third-party software, hardware and analytics, and anything else not provided by Milestone). In order to provide the Solution to You, You grant Milestone a limited, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), assignable and transferrable license to Your Content to operate and maintain the Solution for Your benefit. We agree to keep Your Content secure (as described in Sections 2.0 and 6.2 hereof).

Milestone will access, view, or use Your video data which You transmit through the Solution (“Video Data”) for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement and the provision of the products, services and support hereunder and in accordance with any authorization granted in the DPA. Milestone will not access, view, or use Your Video Data for any other purpose without specific authorization from You. Milestone will not share the Video Data with any third-party without Your prior permission; however, in the following cases, Milestone may provide the Video Data to a third party without prior permission from You: (i) when required by law, (ii) when it is necessary to protect the life, body or property of a person, (iii) when it is particularly necessary to improve or promote public health or the sound development of children, (iv) when We are compelled or deem it advisable to cooperate with a governmental agency or respond to a legal request such as a subpoena or court order, (v) when the Video Data is provided in connection with a merger, acquisition, or the transfer of the business or its assets, (vi) when it is processed, stored, transmitted, or managed by a Milestone subcontractor or affiliate, or (vii) as otherwise permitted herein or in the DPA. Milestone will not use the Video Data for marketing or advertising. Your use of the forensic search feature provided as a part of the Solution may involve a permanent and irrevocable transfer of Your Video Data to Arcules Inc., subject to Your decision to submit specific video frames if support is required. Arcules Inc. will process Your Video Data for the purpose of support on behalf of Milestone as well as for the purpose of Solution improvement and further training machine learning and artificial intelligence analytic engines, including, but not limited to, improved detection and analysis of individuals and objects. For these purposes only, in addition to the license granted and specified in this Section 1.2 above and subject to the DPA, You also grant Arcus Holding A/S and Arcules Inc. a non-exclusive, limited, worldwide, assignable, transferrable, perpetual, and royalty-free license to use and process Your Video Data. In order to receive support on the forensic search, You must agree to Authorization for Use of Improvement Data that is provided for Your acceptance behind Your Solution Account. You must ensure that any such required transfer of Your Video Data does not violate any legal obligation or restriction that You are subject to and that you have a lawful basis to grant such licenses and authorization to Milestone, Arcus Holding A/S, and Arcules Inc. as well as to transfer Your Video Data to Arcules Inc. for processing in the US.

(b) Other Data. Your use of the Solution generates data that Milestone and its subcontractor use to improve and maintain its products. You agree that We may collect, store, generate, and analyze such data, which may include meta-data, testing, analytical, diagnostic, and other usage data or statistics. We will only use such data that is anonymized and does not contain any of Your personal information, and We will only use it to maintain and improve Our products, to verify compliance with this Agreement and terms of the subscription described in Your Solution account, or as otherwise permitted in Our privacy policy and the DPA.

(c) Feedback. You may give us feedback, requirements and other recommendations (“Feedback”) about the Solution. You acknowledge and agree that We own all right, title and interest in and to the Feedback so that We may freely use any Feedback in any manner We deem appropriate.

Your Content will be hosted in a Google Cloud Platform that is located in the region designated by You during the set-up of Your Solution account, i.e., either within the EEA, USA or Japan. Respectively, subject to the DPA and Your instructions, You agree and acknowledge that any part of Your Content, which includes the Video Data and any other data, may be forwarded to and stored in the servers of the third-party service provider(s) which may be located outside of your home jurisdiction. Milestone will prohibit any such third-party service provider from accessing Your Content to the extent required by applicable law or the DPA.

1.3 SLA. Milestone shall provide the Solution substantially in accordance with the Service Level Addendum as may be updated from time to time (“SLA”). The SLA is provided and published on Milestone website (download the SLA at the bottom of this page).

1.4 Unauthorized Use. You represent and warrant that You will not: (a) use the Solution in any way that would violate any applicable law, including, but not limited to, laws applicable to discrimination and human rights; (b) permit any of Your employees or others who You allow to access Your account (only for Your internal business purposes), to use the Solution to store or transmit any data that infringes, violates, or misappropriates (collectively, “Infringes”) third-party rights, including without limitation, privacy, moral or IP rights, or is libelous, fraudulent, obscene, defamatory, threatening, abusive, unlawful, tortious, pornographic, offensive or otherwise harmful (in Our sole and absolute discretion); (c) change, revise, or otherwise create Modifications of the Solution; (d) license, sublicense, sell, rent, lease, transfer, assign, distribute, time share, host, or otherwise commercially exploit the Solution; reverse engineer, modify, decompile, or otherwise attempt to get the source code of the Solution, or work around technical protections or limitations in the Solution; (f) upload or store within the Solution any viruses, worms, time bombs, Trojan horses, or other harmful or malicious code, files scripts, agents or programs; (g) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Solution or data contained therein; or (h) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Solution or its related systems or networks. For avoidance of doubt, if You share or distribute video or analytics data (including without limitation Your Content) that a third-party claim Infringes its rights, You agree to indemnify, defend and hold Milestone Indemnitees (defined below) pursuant to Section 4.3(c) hereof.

1.5 Access Information and Other Users. You are responsible for: (a) maintaining the confidentiality of Your usernames, passwords, and any other log-in information for the Solution (“Access Information”); (b) any activities that occur under Your Access Information, including without limitation, any user You allow or otherwise authorize to access or use Your account, including the Milestone Partner that sold You the subscription to the Solution and third party applications that allow access to Your Solution account as API users via the Solution API, regardless of whether such access is provided directly by You or indirectly by Milestone per your instructions or other authorization (e.g., email); and (c) promptly notifying Milestone of any unauthorized access or use of the Solution. You may add users to Your Solution account, i.e., Your employees and consultants, and You may also provide access to Your Solution account to Your Milestone Partner, subject to your discretion and subject to the terms of this Agreement. You are responsible for ensuring that any additional user added to Your Solution account adheres to this Agreement. You may not sell or provide access to Your account to Your customers, or provide user credentials as a service to any third-party. You will promptly revoke user access when appropriate and maintain appropriate standards for user permissions and use of the Solution. For avoidance of doubt, neither Milestone nor Your Milestone Partner will be responsible or liable for any costs, damages, fees, losses, or other liability resulting from Your failure to comply with this Section 1.5.

1.6 Consent to Operational Emails and Texts. During the term of Your Solution subscription, We will need to communicate with You regarding the Solution via the first user of Your Solution account, i.e., the primary user, including without limitation, planned downtimes, features releases, account management, or other aspects of the Solution. You agree that We may send You emails or text messages (depending on the contact information of the primary user that You provide and Your preferred communication method) for these purposes. You are responsible for maintaining Your contact information accurate and up to date, including any change of the primary user.

You represent and warrant that: (a) You have the authority to enter into this Agreement; (b) You will comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (c) You will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to You that concern (i) use or placement of video cameras, (ii) collection of the Video Data and any analytics data (which may include any video and analytics data deemed to contain personal information), (iii) transference of such data to Milestone’ cloud environment, and the use of personal information by Milestone for the purposes specified herein; (d) If Your Content is governed by the laws of Japan, Your Content does not contain any Personal Data, Sensitive Personal Information, or Specific Personal Information stipulated in the “Personal Information Protection Law of Japan”, or, if contains such data, You have taken necessary measures as required by such Law and/or “the Act on the Use of Numbers to Identify a Specific Individual in Administrative Procedures of Japan”; I You will only use the Solution for Your own internal business purposes and for crime prevention or legitimate surveillance; (f) You will not use the Solution in any hazardous or high-risk environments requiring fail-safe performance, in which the failure or malfunction of the Solution could lead to death, personal injury, illness, or severe physical or property damage; (g) You have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, privacy, use and appropriateness of all Your Content and all liability related to the foregoing; (h) You will not permit users to whom You grant access to the Solution to use it in any U.S., EU, or UK embargoed and/or sanctioned country, or a country embargoed and/or sanctioned by the United Nations, or in violation of any applicable export laws; and (h) You have the right to grant Milestone any license provided for herein or in the DPA to use Your Content; and (i) Your Content does not infringe, violate, or misappropriate any IP right, moral, privacy or other proprietary right of any third-party.

If You issue instructions to Us regarding the processing of Your Content or other data You transfer to Us (including without limitation, changing the location of servers housing Your data or changing any aspect of the Solution to adjust data flows), and such instructions would prevent or limit our ability to provide the Solution, or require material or costly changes to it, We may limit or adjust or terminate Your subscription accordingly without obligation to You after bringing the matter to Your attention and without any right for You to claim damages, refunds, or any compensation.

1.8 Other Services. You may refer to Your Milestone Partner to help select and purchase software and hardware, install and set up cameras and network infrastructure, implement and configure the Solution, and to provide support and maintenance if You have any issues.

1.9 Exceeding Subscription Parameters. Your Solution account describes terms of Your subscription, including the maximum number of subscriptions to be used with the Solution, maximum storage constraints, resolution necessary to be used with the Solution, video and analytics data retention period, analytics usage, and other subscription-specific information, all of which determines the price for the subscription. If You exceed any of the limits described in Your Solution account, or change settings in such a way that would increase parameters of Your subscription and/or Milestone’s costs of providing the Solution, then Your Milestone Partner or Milestone will contact You to adjust Your subscription terms or otherwise address the matter. If We are unable to agree on adjusted terms, Milestone may limit Your use of the Solution. Subject to the terms set out in Section 1.2 (a) hereof, the forensic search feature of the Solution may not be activated and used by You on more than twenty (20%) percent of Your camera channels with cloud storage that are part of Your subscription. Any excessive use beyond this designated threshold may result in Milestone reducing Your use of the forensic search feature down to the required threshold of 20% as specified herein, without further notice.

1.10 Solution Integrity. You are prohibited from breaching or attempting to breach any security features of the Solution, or from accessing it in ways other than those provided by Milestone. This prohibition includes without limitation: (a) accessing content or materials not intended for You, or logging on to an account that You are not authorized to access; (b) attempting to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Solution unless We have given You prior written permission to do so; or (c) accessing or attempting to access the Solution by any means (automated or otherwise) other than through the currently-available, published and enabled interfaces provided by Milestone. You must not simulate the appearance or function of the Solution, or try to distribute it as Your own product, or remove any IP rights notices in the Solution.

1.11 Gateway. In order to use the Solution, a Milestone gateway hardware device with the Embedded Software (the “Gateway”) must be purchased from Your Milestone Partner. If You have purchased a Gateway from Your Milestone Partner, We warrant the Gateway will be substantially free from defects in workmanship and materials under normal use, maintenance and service (“Gateway Warranty”), for a period of five (5) years which begins on the date the Gateway is delivered to You. Should a Gateway fail within this warranty period, Milestone or a third-party on behalf of Milestone shall repair, replace or provide an equivalent product/service, all to be determined in Our sole discretion. To start the Gateway Warranty process, You shall contact Your Milestone Partner to initiate a technical support case and, if necessary, a Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) number for the failed Gateway will be issued. Upon receipt of the failed Gateway (sent by You in accordance with the RMA instructions) or in the event that Milestone determines in its sole discretion that it will provide an on-site inspection of the failed Gateway, Milestone or a third-party shall inspect such Gateway to determine if it is proven to be defective. If the Gateway is deemed to be defective (to be determined in Milestone or the third-party’s sole discretion), Milestone or a third-party shall either repair, replace or provide an equivalent product/service to You. Your exclusive remedy under the Gateway Warranty is to receive a repaired or replaced Gateway or equivalent product/service, and Milestone’s sole obligation and liability under this Gateway Warranty is to ensure You are issued a repaired or replaced Gateway or equivalent product/service. Returns of a Gateway without prior authorization by Milestone (via a RMA number) will be refused. No RMAs will be issued after five (5) years from the date the Gateway was delivered to You. The Gateway Warranty is null and void if You do not remain a continuing subscriber of the Solution from the date the Gateway was delivered to You. The Gateway Warranty does not cover: (a) any Gateway that was provided on an unpaid or free basis; (b) defects to the Gateway due to accident, abuse, unauthorized use, service, alteration, modification or improper installation or configuration by You, Your personnel, or any third-party not engaged by Us; or (c) defects based on Your failure to use the Gateway in accordance with its documentation and this Agreement. You acknowledge and accept that possible new functions and capabilities added to the Solution during the duration of Your subscription may not be compatible with Your Gateway and/or the Embedded Software, and hence not available to You, until the Gateway has been upgraded to a newer version. Any such required upgrade of the Gateway is not covered by this Gateway Warranty. For the avoidance of doubt, the Gateway defined herein excludes any third-party equipment or other hardware not purchased from Milestone, directly or through Your Milestone Partner. The Solution cannot be used with non-Milestone gateway devices. The use of any non-Milestone gateways is on Your responsibility; neither Milestone nor Your Milestone Partner will assume any liability, responsibility whatsoever, with respect to, including, without limitation, Your use, non-use, the warranties and obligations under this Agreement or Service Level Agreement.

1.12 Open Source. Certain components or libraries included in the Solution may be covered by open source licenses. To the extent required by such open source licenses, the terms of such licenses will apply in lieu of the terms of this Agreement where appropriate, only with respect to those open source licenses. You shall comply with such open-source license agreements.

2.0 Confidentiality.

2.1 Duty. The Party receiving (“Receiving Party”) Confidential Information (defined below) from the Party disclosing (“Disclosing Party”) Confidential Information, will take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, as used to protect the Receiving Party’s own Confidential Information of similar nature. The Receiving Party will limit the distribution and communication of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, subcontractors (including in the case of Milestone, Arcus Holding A/S and Arcules Inc.), or other agents of the Receiving Party, who have a need to know such Confidential Information in order to perform its duties under this Agreement and have confidentiality obligations and restrictions at least as strong as the ones in this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall not disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise decompile any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. The Receiving Party shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

2.2 Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any non-public, proprietary or confidential information provided by the Disclosing Party, either directly or indirectly, to the Receiving Party under this Agreement that: (a) if in tangible or written information or materials, is marked as “confidential” (or with words of similar meaning) or that should reasonably be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and circumstances of its disclosure; and (b) any disclosed information (whether disclosed orally or otherwise) that is reasonably understood to be confidential or proprietary. Your Confidential Information includes without limitation, Your Content and Access Information. Milestone Confidential Information includes without limitation, the Solution, Milestone software in the Gateways, No-Charge Offerings (defined below), specifications, development plans, related information and IP rights therein.

2.3 Exclusions. The obligations described above will not apply to any Confidential Information to the extent that the Receiving Party proves with its previous written records that such information: (a) was publicly known at the time it was disclosed or becomes publicly known through no fault or action of the Receiving Party; (b) was known to the Receiving Party, without restriction, at the time of disclosure; (c) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without any access to or use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; (d) becomes known to the Receiving Party, without restriction, from a source other than the Disclosing Party; or (e) is disclosed by the disclosing Party to any third-party under no obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party.

2.4 Compelled and Other Disclosure. If the Receiving Party is required, pursuant to a legal proceeding or other legal or regulatory requirement, to disclose any Disclosing Party Confidential Information (or Your Content, in the case of Milestone’s compelled disclosure by a governmental entity), reasonable prior notice will be given to Disclosing Party in order to contest, seek a protective order, or otherwise limit such disclosure. The Receiving Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party’s application for a protective order or other remedy, and the Receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose. Either Party may disclose this Agreement or the terms herein to such Party’s financial and legal advisers and current and potential lenders, acquirors and investors under written terms of confidentiality. Nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement will be construed to preclude either Party from: (a) compliance with disclosure obligations imposed by the securities laws or regulations of any government entity or public stock exchange, and each Party consents to disclosures as required by such laws or regulations; or (b) disclosing this Agreement or the terms herein to such Party’s financial and legal advisers and current and potential lenders, acquirors and investors, under written terms of confidentiality.

3.0 Payment.

3.1 Payments. You will pay subscription fees for purchased Service SKUs as well as fees for purchased Hardware SKUs to Your Milestone Partner in the amount, within the time and in the manner agreed between You and such Milestone Partner. All payment transactions for the Solution and Gateways are between You and Milestone Partner. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Your purchased subscription will be valid and binding for the subscription term defined in Your Solution account. If You are delinquent in the payment of any invoice to Your Milestone Partner, Milestone may at its sole option suspend access to the Solution until such payment is made in full (with interest, if applicable).

3.2 Taxes. You will be responsible for the payment of all taxes which may be levied or assessed in connection with this Agreement, excluding taxes based on Your Milestone Partner’s or Milestone’s net income.

Milestone does not guarantee that its security procedures will be error-free, that transmissions of Your Content or other data will always be secure, or that unauthorized third-parties will never be able to defeat Milestone’s security measures or those of its third-party service providers. Accordingly, Milestone will not be liable for loss of Your Content, unauthorized use or disclosure of Your Content (even if considered your confidential information), including without limitation, interruption of use of the Solution, or special damages for cost of cover or replacement.

(b) High Risk. Milestone shall not be liable to You for use of the Solution in hazardous or high-risk environments requiring fail-safe performance, in which the failure or malfunction of the Solution could lead to death, illness, personal injury, or severe physical or property damage. Such use is at Your own risk, even if Milestone knows of such use, and Milestone expressly disclaims any express or implied warranty of fitness for such high-risk activities.

(c) Disclaimer of Liability For Third-Party Products. MILESTONE DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, FOR THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS SUCH AS THE CAMERAS PURCHASED FROM THIRD-PARTIES BY YOU OR YOUR MILESTONE PARTNER AND USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOLUTION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NO REPRESENTATION HAS BEEN MADE BY MILESTONE AS TO THE FITNESS OF THE THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS FOR THE YOUR INTENDED PURPOSE.

4.2 Limitation of Liability. THIS SECTION 4.2 LIMITS THE LIABILITY OF BOTH PARTIES.

(a) Indirect Damages. Other than for Your violation of Section 1.4 (Unauthorized Use), to the maximum extent allowed under law, neither Party will be liable to the other Party or any third-party for any indirect, punitive, special, incidental, or consequential damages, or for interruption of business, loss of profits or revenue, even if either Party has been previously advised about the possibility or is aware of such damages, and whether any such claim is based in tort or contract.

(b) Direct Damages. To the maximum extent allowed under applicable law, Milestone’s liability for damages related to this Agreement will be limited to direct damages actually incurred up to the amount of fees paid for Your subscription to use the Solution during the six (6) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim, whether the claim is based in negligence, strict liability, breach of contract, warranty, or other contract or tort claim. This limitation on direct damages will not apply to: Your payment obligations, a breach of confidentiality obligations described in this Agreement, damages caused by willful misconduct or gross negligence, or to amounts payable under an indemnification obligation. Each Party agrees that it is not owed any duties or remedies not expressly described in this Agreement.

4.3 Indemnification.

(a) By Milestone. If a claim by a third-party is brought against You that alleges that the Solution, as made available to You, infringes any IP Right in your country, or that an action by Milestone resulted in bodily injury, death, or physical property damage, then Milestone will defend You against the claim, and indemnify You against any damages that are confined in a final award or judgement against You by a court of competent jurisdiction to the benefit of the infringed third party or agreed in a written settlement negotiated and approved by Milestone. This protection extends to You and Your officers, directors and employees (“Your Indemnified Party(ies)”). If such a claim is made against You, You must provide Milestone with: (i) written notice of the claim within 20 days of receiving notice of a claim; (ii) all necessary assistance, information and authority necessary for Milestone to defend the claim and perform its obligations under this Section 4.3 (at Milestone’s expense); and (iii) sole control of the defense of such claim and all associated settlement negotiations. Milestone may not settle any claim against You that does not fully and unconditionally release Your Indemnified Parties from any liability for the indemnified claim. If a claim of IP right infringement is made or appears likely to be made with respect to the Solution, Milestone may, at its expense and sole choice, enable You to continue to use the affected Solution, modify it to make it non-infringing, replace all or portions of the Solution with a substantially functional, non-infringing equivalent, or terminate this Agreement in whole or with respect to the affected Solution and provide You with a pro-rata refund of pre-paid fees paid based on the effective date of termination and the then remaining term of the applicable subscription, if any (the refund may be through Your Milestone Partner). However, no refund will be provided for the Gateway.

For purposes of clarification, the indemnifications set forth in this Section will be provided by Milestone directly to You.

(b) Exclusions From IP Indemnification. Milestone will have no liability or responsibility to defend or indemnify Your Indemnified Parties under Section 4.3(a) for any IP infringement claim based upon: (i) any information, data, component or application that is not exclusively owned by or licensed to Milestone (including without limitation, uploaded video recordings, video and analytics data, and Other Applications); (ii) any Modification of the Solution by a party other than Milestone; (iii) Your use of the Solution in combination with any non-Milestone product, software, service or equipment, but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is caused by such combination; (iv) the use of other than the latest release of the Solution if such claim could have been avoided by use of the latest unmodified release; (v) Your continuance of allegedly infringing activity after being notified about the infringement claim, or after being notified of Modifications (to be made at no cost) that would have avoided the alleged infringement; (vi) Your unauthorized use of the Solution; or (vii) if You settle or make any admissions with respect to a claim without Milestone’s prior written consent.

(c) By You. If a claim by a third-party is brought against Milestone or its affiliates, licensors of the Solution to Milestone, Your Milestone Partner, and their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents (“Milestone Indemnitees”) alleging damages arising from Your violation of Sections 1.4 (Unauthorized Use), 1.5 (Access Information and Other Users), 1.7 (Your Responsibilities), Your access control configurations, or Your collection of video and analytics data that is not in compliance with applicable laws, then You will defend the Milestone Indemnitees against the claim, and indemnify and hold harmless the Milestone Indemnitees against any damages that might result. In the event of such a claim, Milestone will provide You with: (i) prompt written notice of the claim; (ii) all necessary assistance, information and authority necessary for You to defend the claim (at Your expense); and (iii) sole control of the defense of such claim and all associated settlement negotiations. You may not settle any claim that does not fully and unconditionally release the Milestone Indemnitees from any and all liability for the indemnified claim.
