the alleged infringement is based upon the use, license or sale of (a) the Licensed Materials in combination with other products (including software) not furnished by Licensor; or (b) an outdated version of the Licensed Materials, if
use of a more recent version would have avoided the infringement. LICENSOR DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES. LICENSOR’S SOLE OBLIGATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION OR CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT IS DESCRIBED IN THIS
SUBSECTION. 
  
 10.2. Indemnity by Licensee. Except for
claims arising under subsection 10.1 or resulting from Licensor’s own gross negligence or willful or criminal misconduct, Licensee shall upon request indemnify and hold Licensor, its agents, directors, officers and employees, harmless against
any and all damages, claims, losses or expenses of whatever kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in defending such claims, resulting from the gross negligence or willful or criminal misconduct of Licensee,
its officers, directors or employees, in connection with Licensee’s performance of this Agreement; provided that Licensor gives Licensee prompt written notice of such claim, and information, reasonable assistance and sole authority to defend or
settle the claim. 
  
 11. Warranties and
Limitation of Liability. 
  
 11.1. Limited Warranty; No
Other Warranty. LICENSOR MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND REGARDING THE LICENSED MATERIALS OR ITS PERFORMANCE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ALL OF WHICH IS PROVIDED “AS IS.” THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE NOR OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE), BY LICENSOR WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED MATERIALS OR ANY OTHER GOOD OR SERVICE PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. NO
EMPLOYEE, AGENT OR REPRESENTATIVE OF LICENSOR HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND LICENSOR TO ANY ORAL REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIALS OR ANY OTHER GOOD OR SERVICE PROVIDED BY LICENSOR. ANY ORAL OR WRITTEN REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL NOT BE ENFORCEABLE BY LICENSEE. 
  
 11.2. Limitation of Liability. NEITHER LICENSOR NOR LICENSEE SHALL HAVE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS 

  

 Page 32 








 
AGREEMENT OR THE LICENSED MATERIALS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. NEITHER LICENSOR NOR LICENSEE SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INCIDENTAL,
INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, EVEN IF EACH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF, KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF. 
  
 11.3. Allocation of Risk. Section 11 of this Agreement allocates the risks under this Agreement between Licensor
and Licensee and Licensee acknowledges that Licensor and Licensee have entered into this Agreement in reliance upon such allocation of risk and would not enter into this Agreement in the absence of such allocation of risk. 
  
 12. Confidential Information. 
  
 12.1. Confidential Information. Confidential Information includes any
information, not generally known in the relevant trade or industry, obtained from Licensee or Licensor or their vendors or licensors or which falls within any of the following general categories: 
  
 12.1.1 The Licensed Materials; 
  
 12.1.2 Information relating to trade secrets of Licensee or
Licensor or their vendors or licensors; 
  
 12.1.3 Information relating to existing or contemplated products, services, technology, designs, processes, formulae, computer systems, computer software, algorithms and research or developments of Licensee or Licensor or their vendors or
licensors;

business, customer lists, customer usages and/or requirements, and supplier information of Licensee or Licensor or their vendors or licensors; or 
  
 12.1.5 Information marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary.” 
  
 12.2. Maintaining Confidentiality. A party receiving Confidential
Information (“Recipient”) from the other party (“Discloser”) agrees to keep such Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, in the manner set forth below: 
  
 12.2.1 Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, the Recipient shall not copy, modify, enhance,
compile or assemble (or reverse compile or disassemble), or reverse engineer Confidential Information or any thing containing or embodying Confidential Information and shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose, divulge, reveal, report or transfer
such Confidential Information of the other to any third party or to any individual employed by Licensor or Licensee, other than an employee of Licensor or Licensee having a need to know such Confidential Information and who has executed a
confidentiality agreement in substantially the form hereof. 
  

 Page 33 








 12.2.2 Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, Recipient shall not use any
Confidential Information of the Discloser or the concepts therein for its own benefit or for the benefit of a third party or for any purpose other than the purpose for which such Confidential Information is being disclosed. 
  
 12.2.3 Recipient shall not remove any proprietary legends or
notices, including copyright notices, appearing on or in the Confidential Information of the Discloser. 
  
 12.2.4 Recipient shall take appropriate action with respect to each and every person permitted access to any Confidential Information of
the Discloser to ensure that each such person complies with the confidentiality provisions hereof. Recipient shall use its best efforts to enforce the proprietary rights of the Discloser and the Discloser’s vendors, licensors, and suppliers
(including but not limited to seeking injunctive relief where reasonably necessary) against any person who has possession of or discloses Confidential Information in a manner not permitted by this Agreement. 
  
 12.2.5 Any materials which are or which relate to or derive
from any Confidential Information shall be kept confidential and all such materials shall be returned to the Discloser or destroyed upon satisfaction of the purpose for the disclosure of such information. 
  
 12.2.6 The parties may disclose Confidential Information to
their attorneys in the course of representation on a matter reasonably requiring the attorneys to receive the Confidential Information and also may disclose Confidential Information to their certified public accountants to the extent necessary to
enable those accountants to prepare financial statements or reports required by applicable law. 
  
 12.2.7 In the event that any demand is made in litigation, or other proceeding for disclosure of Confidential Information, Recipient shall
assert this Agreement as a ground for refusing the demand, shall not disclose the Confidential Information, and, if necessary, shall seek a protective order or other appropriate relief to prevent or restrict and protect any disclosure of
Confidential Information. 
  
 12.3. Limitation on
Confidentiality Obligation. Discloser agrees that Recipient shall have no obligation with respect to any information that the Recipient can establish: 
  
 12.3.1 Was already known to Recipient; 
  
 12.3.2 Was or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of Recipient or a third party; 
  
 12.3.3 Was rightfully obtained by Recipient from a third
party without similar restriction and without breach hereof; 
  
 12.3.4 Was used or disclosed by Recipient with the prior written authorization of the other party; 
  

 Page 34 








 12.3.5 Was disclosed pursuant to the requirement or request of a governmental agency,
which disclosure cannot be made in confidence, provided that, in such instance, Recipient shall first give to the other party notice of such requirement or request; or 
  
 12.3.6 Was disclosed pursuant to the order of a court of competent jurisdiction or a lawfully issued
subpoena, provided that the Recipient shall take reasonable steps to obtain an agreement or order that, to the greatest extent possible, this Agreement will be applicable to all Recipients of disclosures under the court order or subpoena.

  
 12.4. Unintentional Disclosure. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that a party is unintentionally exposed to any Confidential Information of the other party, the unintended recipient agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose, divulge, reveal,
report, use or transfer such Confidential Information to any person or entity or use such Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever. 
  
 13. Assignment. 
  
 Licensee shall not sublicense, transfer or assign the Licensed Materials or this Agreement or any portion thereof, or any right or obligation thereunder,
unless Licensee has obtained the prior written consent of Licensor, in Licensor’s sole and absolute discretion. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 13 shall be void. 
  
 14. Termination and Default. 
  
 14.1. Termination. In the event Licensor terminates this Agreement,
Licensee shall return the Client Devices and all Licensed Material to Licensor within five (5) business days. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving three (3) business day’s written notice to the other party.

  
 14.2. Default. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a non-exclusive Event of Default: (a) any representation or warranty made hereof proves to be knowingly false or erroneous in any material way when made
or shall fail to be true and correct in all material respects at any time during the term of this Agreement; or (b) a party’s failure to perform any material obligation (whether or not expressly identified as material) contained in this
Agreement. 
  
 14.3. Rights upon Default. Upon an Event of
Default, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to (a) terminate this Agreement upon written notice; (b) cease providing services, including terminating access to the Client Software; (c) seek all legal and equitable remedies
permitted by applicable law and the terms of this Agreement; and (d) collect remaining months owed under Section 3.1. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the remedies set forth in this subsection 14.3 shall be cumulative and not
exclusive, and may be exercised successively or concurrently. 
  

 Page 35 








 15. Miscellaneous. 
  
 15.1. Covenant not to Employ. During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of one (1) calendar year from
the date of its termination, each party agrees that it shall not employ or solicit the employment of any employee of the other party, without the prior written consent of the employee’s current employer. 
  
 15.2. Notices. Any notice, consent or other communication in
connection with this Agreement shall be effective on the date sent and shall be delivered by personal service, via facsimile with written confirmation of receipt or by express overnight delivery. Notices should be addressed as indicated at the
beginning of this Agreement. 
  
 15.3. Severability. If any
provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be deemed modified only to the extent necessary to render that provision valid or excluded from this Agreement, as the situation
may require; and this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if such provision had been included as so modified. 
  
 15.4. Fees and Expenses. If either party institutes an action to enforce this Agreement or any of its terms, the prevailing party shall also be
entitled to receive all of its costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees. 
  
 15.5. Relationship of the Parties. The relationship of the parties established by this Agreement is solely that of independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make
Licensee (or its agents or employees) the representative, agent or co-venturer of Licensor for any purpose. No employee, agent or representative of Licensor has the authority to bind Licensor to any oral representation or warranty concerning
the Licensed Material. Any written representation or warranty not expressly contained herein shall not be enforceable by Licensee. 
  
 15.6. Survival of Provisions. The rights and obligations created under Sections 8 through 14, and all accrued and unpaid obligations arising in
this Agreement, shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
  
 15.7. Governing Law. This Agreement and the obligations contained herein shall be governed and construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the applicable laws of
                     without regard to conflict of law principles. 
  
 15.8. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute, controversy, claim, question or difference arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any breach hereof, upon written notice by any party to the others, the dispute, claim, question or difference shall be finally settled by a binding proceeding administered by the
                     or as otherwise specifically delegated under
                    . This Agreement is intended to be binding upon the signatories hereto and their successors and assigns. 
  
 15.9. Title to Devices. The Devices are provided by Licensor to
Licensee only for the term of this Agreement. The Devices shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Licensor and shall never become by agreement, act of law or otherwise, security for any obligation or 

  

 Page 36 








 
property of Licensee. Should Licensee cease doing business for any reason, fail to maintain all required gaming licenses, or in the event of default by
Licensee, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity, Licensor may enter upon the premises of Licensee and retake the Devices. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as conveying any ownership right, title or interest in or to the Devices
or the intellectual and proprietary rights associated therewith. Licensee shall keep the Devices at all times free and clear of any and all claims, liens, levies, processes, security interests and encumbrances, except for any security interest
granted to Licensor by Licensee. The filing of a petition by or against Licensee under any applicable bankruptcy laws shall constitute a default hereunder and Licensor may thereafter terminate this Agreement. Licensee shall not interfere with the
right to remove the Devices in this event. 
  
 15.10. Delays or
Omissions. Unless specifically limited by the particular provision giving rise thereto, no delay or omission in exercising any right, power or obligation accruing to either party hereunder shall impair any such right, power or obligation; nor
shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence thereto, or of any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or
default thereto. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character of any breach or default hereunder, or any waiver on the part of either party of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing. All remedies, either
hereunder or by applicable law or otherwise afforded to either party, shall be cumulative and not alternative. 
  
 15.11. Compliance with Applicable Laws. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Licensee shall be solely responsible for complying
with all applicable laws and regulations applicable in any nation, or political subdivision thereof, in which it engages in business thereunder. 
  
 15.12. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable to the other by reason of any failure of performance hereunder (except obligations to
pay) if such failure arises out of causes beyond such party’s reasonable control, despite the reasonable efforts, and without the fault or negligence of such party. A party experiencing such an event shall give as prompt notice as possible
under the circumstances. 
  
 15.13. Further Assurances. The
parties hereto shall each perform such acts, execute and deliver such instruments and documents, and do all such other things as may be reasonably necessary to accomplish the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. 
  
 15.14. Entire Agreement; Amendment. The Agreement constitutes the
complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the licensing of the Licensed Materials to Licensee, superseding all other communications of any kind by any means between Licensor and Licensee relating to the subject matter of this
Agreement. The parties have read this Agreement, and they agree to be bound by its terms. Any amendment or waiver of this Agreement or any exhibit thereto must be in writing and executed by the parties hereto. 
  
 15.15. Successors and Assigns. All provisions of this Agreement shall
be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties.
