10.2           Warranties by LIFECOMM.  For a period of [***] after shipment of the Device to AMAC pursuant to Section 4.4 (Shipment, Delivery, and Acceptance) (the “Warranty Period”), LIFECOMM warrants that the Device, when used as permitted under this Agreement and in accordance with the instructions in the User Documentation, will operate substantially as described in the User Documentation.  LIFECOMM does not warrant that use of the Device will be error-free or uninterrupted, and the foregoing warranty excludes any failure of a Device caused by user error, abuse, or misuse.  LIFECOMM will, at its own expense and as its sole obligation and AMAC’s exclusive remedy for any breach of this warranty, use commercially reasonable efforts to repair any reproducible nonconformity in any Device reported to LIFECOMM by AMAC in writing during the Warranty Period or, if LIFECOMM determines that it is unable to repair any reproducible nonconformity in the Device, LIFECOMM will replace such Device.  Any such repair or replacement of a Device to AMAC will not extend the original Warranty Period.  As a condition to receiving the warranty remedies hereunder, AMAC must (a) be responsible for all communications with the Client (either directly or indirectly through a third party
distribution channel); (b) return the nonconforming Device to LIFECOMM in accordance with LIFECOMM’s then-current RMA policy; and (c) provide reasonable cooperation to LIFECOMM in diagnosing and reproducing the nonconformity.  AMAC shall pay all freight and shipping costs associated with warranty returns and replacements of Devices; provided, however, that if LIFECOMM testing has confirmed that the Device in fact fails to conform to the warranty set forth in this section (i.e., the identified failure does not arise from user error, abuse, or misuse), then LIFECOMM shall issue to AMAC a credit in an amount equal to the freight and shipping costs incurred by AMAC for the return and replacement of such Device.  Such credit must be applied against the next LIFECOMM invoice; in the event that any such credit remains outstanding at the time that this Agreement expires or is terminated, LIFECOMM will remit to
AMAC a payment in the amount of the outstanding credit.  LIFECOMM shall offer extended warranty protection on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10.2 in accordance with the pricing schedule on Attachment F.

(b)          Termination for Breach following Arbitration.


 


(i)           Subject to subclause (ii) of this Section 13.3(b), each Party (the “Non-breaching Party”) may terminate this Agreement, effective [***] (the “Termination Effective Date”) following delivery of a written notice of termination to the other Party (the “Breaching Party”), stating that that (1) the Breaching Party has breached a material provision of this Agreement and has not cured the breach within [***] after receiving written notice thereof from the Non-breaching Party and (2) this Agreement is being terminated pursuant to this Section 13.3(b).



 


(ii)           Upon written demand by the Breaching Party, which demand must be delivered to the Non-breaching Party prior to the Termination Effective Date, the Parties shall submit such dispute giving rise to the written notice of termination  of this Agreement to binding arbitration.  In the event of any such written demand for arbitration by the Breaching Party, any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.3(b) shall not be effective unless and until the arbitration proceedings have concluded and the arbitrator has determined that the alleged breach of a material provision of this Agreement has occurred and has not been cured within the applicable cure period
stated above.  The arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA).  The validity, construction, and interpretation of this Agreement to arbitrate under this Section 13.3(b), and all procedural aspects of the arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 13.3(b) shall be decided by the arbitrator and shall be determined in accordance with the governing law of this Agreement.

It is agreed that the arbitrator shall have only the authority to determine whether or not the alleged breach of a material provision of this Agreement has occurred and has not been cured within the applicable
cure period stated above, and shall have no authority to award damages of any type under any circumstances whether or not such damages may be available under state or federal law, or under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the Parties hereby waive their right, if any, to recover any such damages.  The arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in New York County, New York.  Within [***] of the written demand of initiation of the arbitration procedure, the Parties shall select a neutral arbitrator, who shall be a person who has over ten years professional experience in commercial transactions of this nature and who has not previously been employed by any Party and does not have a direct or indirect interest in any Party or the subject matter of the arbitration.  At the time of appointment, the arbitrator shall be required to undertake to issue a final decision
within [***] of the date of the initial demand for arbitration.  Any arbitration proceeding and the arbitrator's determination shall be maintained in confidence by the parties, except to the extent disclosure is required by law or judicial proceeding having competent jurisdiction.  Other than matters in which termination is sought by the Non-breaching Party pursuant to Section 13(b)(i), arbitration shall not be required except by written consent of the Parties.



 


(c)           Termination for Insolvency.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if AMAC is not in breach of any material provision of this Agreement, AMAC shall have the right to continue to provide Product support services to its Clients and third party distribution channels existing at the termination or expiration of this Agreement and LIFECOMM shall continue to facilitate the provision of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service for a period of [***] thereafter, subject to LIFECOMM’s ability to obtain such services from the Wireless Carrier during this period.


 


(c)           Termination of Wireless Carrier Agreement.  In the event that this Agreement is terminated under Subsection 13.3(e) as a result of the termination or expiration of the agreement between LIFECOMM and the Wireless Carrier: (i) LIFECOMM is not obligated to ensure that any Client is able to continue to utilize the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Wireless Service or to arrange for any transfer of any Client’s mobile directory numbers; (ii) LIFECOMM or the Wireless Carrier may route Clients to a recording (or other message delivery system) advising that
Client's mobile directory numbers are disconnected and that any requests regarding prior services and/or the disconnection should be directed to AMAC; and (iii) in such event, AMAC hereby releases and holds harmless LIFECOMM and its suppliers from any and all claims and causes of action that may arise from such communications with Clients.



 


13.5         Survival.  Sections 1, 3.3, 7.7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.4, 14, and any payment obligations incurred prior to expiration or termination of this Agreement will survive such expiration or termination.

14.          MISCELLANEOUS


 


14.1         Publicity.  Neither party shall issue any press release or make any other public statement concerning this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except to the extent required by law or regulation.  To the extent a party is required by law or regulation to disclose the terms of this Agreement, such party may do so if both parties review and mutually agree upon such required disclosure prior to its disclosure and such party seeks to obtain confidential treatment thereof to the extent requested by such other party.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, the parties acknowledge that this Agreement, or portions thereof, and schedules thereto, and descriptions of any of the foregoing, may be required under applicable law or regulation to be disclosed in required public disclosure documents, or exhibits thereto, of AMAC filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any securities exchange on which its securities are listed for trading.  Prior to such disclosure, AMAC will inform LIFECOMM in writing and will use commercially reasonable efforts to seek approval from the SEC or other applicable regulatory authority for the confidential treatment of certain confidential information identified by the parties.







14.2         Governing Law and Venue.  This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different state.  Except as required by Section 13(b)(ii), any legal action or proceeding concerning the validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement, matters arising out of or related to this Agreement or its making, performance or breach, or related matters shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of New York in the County of New York or of the
United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and all parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts, waiving any objection to the propriety or convenience of such venues.  The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.



 


14.3         Export.  AMAC agrees not to export, reexport, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any U.S. technical data acquired from LIFECOMM, or any products utilizing such data, in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.


 


14.4         Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, AMAC agrees that Section 11 (Limitation of Liability) will remain in effect notwithstanding the unenforceability of any provision in Subsection 10.2 (Warranties by
LIFECOMM).



 


14.5         Waiver.  Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.


 


14.6         Remedies.  Except as expressly provided in Sections 10 (Warranties) and 12 (Indemnification), the parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative.  AMAC acknowledges that the Devices, LIFECOMM Connectivity Service and LIFECOMM Mobile PERS API contain valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of LIFECOMM and its suppliers, that any actual or threatened breach of Section 9 (Confidentiality) or any other breach of its obligations
with respect to Intellectual Property Rights of LIFECOMM will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to LIFECOMM for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach.  If any legal action is brought to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive its attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other collection expenses, in addition to any other relief it may receive.

14.7         No Assignment. This Agreement, and each Party’s rights and obligations herein, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by a Party without the other Party’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void; provided, however, that either Party may assign this Agreement, and its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with a Change of Control of such Party, or to an entity into which such Party is merged in connection with a change in such Party’s State of incorporation, without the
consent of the other Party, subject to Subsection 13.3(d) (Termination of [***] and Non-Compete for Change of Control Involving a Competitor).  The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon successors and permitted assignees.



 


14.8         Force Majeure.  Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party (except the payment of money owed) will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the circumstances causing the delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.


 


14.9         Independent Contractors.  AMAC’s relationship to LIFECOMM is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other.  AMAC will not have, and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of LIFECOMM.


 


14.10       Notices. Each party must deliver all notices or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement in writing to the other party at the address listed on the signature page by courier, by certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally-recognized express mail service.  Notice will be effective upon receipt or refusal of delivery.  If delivered by certified or registered mail, any such notice will be considered to have been given five (5) business days after it was mailed, as evidenced by the postmark.  If delivered by courier or express mail service, any such notice
shall be considered to have been given on the delivery date reflected by the courier or express mail service receipt. Each party may change its address for receipt of notice by giving notice of such change to the other party.



 


14.11       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be taken together and deemed to be one instrument.


 


14.12       Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matter. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, or any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by AMAC and LIFECOMM.

WIRELESS NETWORK TERMS




 


Brownouts.  AMAC acknowledges and agrees that Brownouts may be put in place by the Wireless Carrier and Roaming Carriers from time to time in the provision of the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service and the Roaming Carrier’s CMRS and/or Data Service, or PIN codes may be required by the Roaming Carrier.  The Wireless Carrier may implement a Brownout in the Territory.  LIFECOMM will endeavor to promptly provide AMAC with notice after the commencement or occurrence of any Brownout, but LIFECOMM’s failure to provide such notice will not be considered a breach of its obligation under this Agreement.







Interference.  AMAC shall assist LIFECOMM and the Wireless Carrier in taking all actions necessary as determined by the Wireless Carrier in its sole discretion to prevent and/or terminate actual or potential Interference with Facilities, Systems and/or the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service.  “Interference” shall mean causing actual or potential harm to the Facilities, Systems, LIFECOMM Connectivity Service or the performance metrics of the Wireless Carrier Facilities or Systems, and includes Fraudulent Usage.  Such harm may include, but shall not be limited to the (i) disproportionate use of the Wireless Carrier Facilities’ resources, air link, backbone network, (ii) any use
that adversely affects the performance metrics, as determined by the Wireless Carrier, of Facilities, Systems or LIFECOMM Connectivity Service, or (iii) the impairment of the quality of LIFECOMM Connectivity Service provided to End Users or any Customer.  In the event that there is Interference, AMAC shall immediately cease such Interference or promptly order the End User to cease from engaging in such act(s) of Interference.  In the extent that such Interference continues despite the above, LIFECOMM shall have the right to discontinue the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service to that End User or the MDN assigned thereto and/or deny AMAC’s access to Systems (in the case of Interference to Systems, in accordance with an applicable System policy), and LIFECOMM shall provide AMAC with written notification of such discontinuance promptly thereafter.  AMAC shall assist LIFECOMM in taking all actions necessary to prevent
further Interference.  In the event LIFECOMM or the Wireless Carrier determines the Interference is adverse to Facilities, Systems or the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service, LIFECOMM and the Wireless Carrier reserve the right to suspend any new Activation of Interfering Equipment.








Area Code Relief.  The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to implement any area code relief in a given Territory.  LIFECOMM may provide notice, if and as available, of any area code relief.  AMAC shall reprogram the Equipment and may be required to notify affected End Users of any changes in MDNs.  Any failure by AMAC to comply with such obligations may adversely affect AMAC’s ability to provide LIFECOMM Connectivity Service or to timely bill End Users, but the Wireless Carrier shall still invoice AMAC, and AMAC shall still be obligated to pay for any LIFECOMM Connectivity Service or Roaming used after the area code relief.  AMAC is responsible for obtaining area code information from NANPA
(www.nanpa.com) or the applicable state public utility commission website.








Radio Frequency (RF) Enhancer.  AMAC shall not install, deploy, or use any regeneration equipment or similar mechanism (for example, a repeater) to originate, amplify, enhance, retransmit or regenerate a transmitted RF signal.

Wireless Carrier’s Right To Modify Rates, Charges, Fees and Other Amounts.









AMAC hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Wireless Carrier may change, introduce, terminate, add, adjust, and/or modify, any and all “non-Wireless Carrier” rates (e.g. Roaming), Taxes, charges, fees, tables, charts, discounts, and/or the qualification requirements (if any, for such items) upon [***] prior notice to LIFECOMM, in which case LIFECOMM may make a corresponding change to the rates, taxes, charges, fees, tables, charts, discounts and/or the qualification requirements upon [***] prior notice.  AMAC acknowledges and agrees that any such change, termination, adjustment and/or modification shall apply to all Active MDNs hereunder, except as expressly provided by LIFECOMM
in the notice required under this paragraph.








Wireless Carrier’s Right to Modify Business Practices.  This Agreement is subject to all applicable business practices, policies, and procedures of the Wireless Carrier of which AMAC has notice.  Such procedures, policies and business practices may be modified or changed, or new business practices, policies and procedures introduced, at any time upon [***] notice, which may be provided by posting on the Wireless Carrier’s website (at an address to be provided by the Wireless Carrier) or written notice to AMAC via email, USPS, or courier service, provided, that such change may not materially modify, curtail or otherwise diminish the Wireless Carrier’s or AMAC’s
material obligations hereunder.








Facility Modifications.  AMAC acknowledges that CMRS and Data Service is a rapidly changing industry and technology and as such neither LIFECOMM nor the Wireless Carrier shall be liable to AMAC or to AMAC's End Users if changes in any of the Facilities, Systems, operations, equipment, procedures, or LIFECOMM Connectivity Service render obsolete any Equipment, service, software and/or applications provided by AMAC to End Users in conjunction with use of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service.







Privacy and Security of LIFECOMM Connectivity Service.  AMAC acknowledges neither LIFECOMM, the Wireless Carrier, nor any of their Affiliates can guarantee the privacy or security of any transmission, including voice and/or data transmitted through the use of the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service or Roaming.







Capacity Limitation.  The parties recognize that unusual concentrations of the cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service usage may occur in certain locations.  Neither LIFECOMM nor the Wireless Carrier shall incur liability for its inability to provide adequate LIFECOMM Connectivity Service hereunder if such liability is due to a lack of capacity on the Wireless Carrier Facilities or Carrier Facilities which results from the aforesaid usage concentration, and nothing herein shall require LIFECOMM or the Wireless Carrier to expend any capital or resources to ensure capacity for AMAC’s or its End Users' use of LIFECOMM Connectivity Service or Roaming.







AMAC agrees to and acknowledges the following:  The CMRS and/or Data Service are subject to transmission limitations caused by atmospheric and like conditions.  The cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service may be temporarily interrupted or curtailed due to government regulations, suspected fraudulent activities, network modifications, upgrades, relocations, repairs and similar activities necessary or appropriate for the proper or improved operation of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service. The cellular connectivity portion of the LIFECOMM Connectivity Service is subject to network and transmission limitations, including cell site unavailability, particularly near boundaries and in remote areas.  Equipment, weather, topography and other environmental
considerations also affect CMRS and/or Data Service and such CMRS and/or Data Service may vary significantly within buildings, or dependent upon the location of the Equipment.  With digital-only Equipment the End User can only make and receive calls and/or transmit data when CDMA digital service is available.  When CDMA digital service is not available, such Equipment will not be able to make and receive calls and/or transmit data of any kind.
