(d)AT&T and Synacor will work to determine mutually acceptable economic payment terms to Synacor associated with AT&T Content sourced from a Third Party before it is made available on the Portal and Portal Applications since AT&T deal terms may vary with each Third Party Content provider from whom such Content is procured.

In accordance therewith, when delivering Advertising under the Agreement, Synacor and AT&T will include or will require that the Synacor Advertisers and AT&T Advertisers, as the case may be, engaged in online behavioral advertising include AdChoices icons, links, or similar mutually agreed upon icons on or around Advertisements delivered via online behavioral advertising so that Users of the Portal are able to access a landing page controlled by AT&T through which they can opt out of participating in online behavioral advertising programs. Further, Synacor also will include a link to the landing page controlled by AT&T, which will be accessible not only via the AdChoices icon but also through a link on the Portal in a location designated by AT&T, through which Users of the Portal will be able to opt-out of receiving cookies from Third Party advertising networks via the NAI cookie opt-out page.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Recipient may retain copies of the Information to the extent legally required for legal, regulatory, internal analysis, and disaster recovery purposes.

4.The Parties agree that no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof.

5.In the event that the Recipient and/or its Representatives is legally compelled by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, administrative proceeding, or investigation by any government authority or agency or other similar legal process to disclose any Information that it received from the Company, the Recipient shall provide to the Company in writing prompt notice (if legally permissible) of any such request or requirement so that the Company may, at its own cost, intervene and seek an appropriate protective order or waive certain of the Recipient’s and/or its Representatives’ obligations under this Agreement.

to disclose Information, the Parties agree that the Recipient or its Representative(s) may disclose that portion of Information that, on the advice of the Recipient’s or its Representative(s)’ counsel, the Recipient or its Representative(s) is/are required or compelled to disclose. 

6.This Agreement, together with the Commercial Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings in connection therewith.  This Agreement may be amended or waived only by a written agreement signed by both Parties which makes specific reference to this Agreement.

7.The Parties acknowledge and agree that each Party may be irreparably damaged by any breach of this Agreement.  In addition to the rights and remedies otherwise available at law or in equity, the Parties agree that each Party shall be entitled to equitable relief, including an injunction or specific performance, in the event of any breach of this Agreement by the other Party.  The Recipient and each of its Representatives that receives Information pursuant to this Agreement agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist, at such parties’ sole expense, the Company in remedying any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Information caused by any such breach of this Agreement by the Recipient or its Representatives, including, but not limited to, any unlawful trading of the Company’s securities as described in Section 2 above.  

8.This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original hereof and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same document.

9.This Agreement will terminate automatically, without notice, upon the termination of the Commercial Agreement; provided, however, that the obligation to keep Information confidential pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall survive such termination and continue in effect until the date that is one year after the termination of the Commercial Agreement.

10.This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles.
