This Agreement is considered part of any agreement or quote issued by Reseller and Customer hereby agrees to this Agreement as it relates to the mini传媒 Service(s).? For clarity, the parties agree that Addendum A “Public Sector Terms” shall apply to Public Sector Customers.

Except when Customer has a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority, Customer is responsible for paying to Reseller all Taxes imposed on the Service or any other services provided under this Agreement. Customer agrees to assist Reseller in providing mini传媒 with a valid reseller certificate where required for tax exemption purposes. If mini传媒 has a legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this Agreement, the appropriate amount shall be computed based on Customer’s address as provided to mini传媒 by Reseller.
2. Customer Obligations.
Customer shall have sole responsibility for (a) obtaining and verifying it has all authorizations, consents, and rights necessary to use the Service; (b) the accuracy, quality, and legality of all Customer Content, and shall take commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to, or use of, the Service, and shall notify mini传媒 promptly of any unauthorized access or use; (c) any Non-mini传媒 Content it installs, uses, or enables; and (d) ensuring compliance with the Agreement and the AUP by its Affiliates and Authorized Parties, and any breach by its Affiliates or Authorized Parties will be deemed a breach by Customer.

If Reseller, Customer, or mini传媒 becomes aware of a Security Breach, that party must promptly notify the other parties, unless legally prohibited from doing so, within 48 hours or any shorter period required by Law except that Customer is not required to notify mini传媒 unless Customer reasonably determines there is a threat to the Service. Additionally, each party shall reasonably assist the other party in mitigating any potential damage. As soon as reasonably practicable after any Security Breach, mini传媒 shall conduct a root cause analysis and, upon request, shall share the results of its analysis and its remediation plan with Customer.

Customer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify mini传媒 in writing, and provide a copy of the notice to Reseller, no later than 30 days after identifying a deficiency, but Customer’s failure to notify mini传媒 within that period will not affect Customer’s right to receive warranty remedies unless mini传媒 is impaired in its ability to correct the deficiency due to Customer’s failure to notify. Notice of breaches of the warranty under item (1) must be made through mini传媒’s then-current error reporting system; notices of breaches of any other warranty must be made in writing to mini传媒, with a copy provided to Reseller, in accordance with the notice provisions of this EUSA or as required by Contract Vehicle. The Customer’s exclusive remedy and mini传媒’s sole liability for breach of the Service Warranty is termination of the applicable Service. Unless agreed to in writing, or as required by Contract Vehicle, notice to Reseller of a warranty defect shall not constitute notice to mini传媒 under this paragraph.
6.1 DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WORKDAY MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

7. Indemnification.
7.1 mini传媒 Indemnity. mini传媒 shall defend Customer, at mini传媒’s expense, against any third-party Claim brought against Customer alleging that the use of the Service as contemplated hereunder infringes that third party’s Intellectual Property Rights and shall indemnify and hold Customer harmless against any Losses arising from such third-party Claim. mini传媒 will have no liability for Claims or Losses to the extent they arise from: (a) modification of the Service by anyone other than mini传媒; (b) use of the Service in a manner inconsistent with the Documentation or in violation of this Agreement; or (c) use of the Service in combination with any other product or service not provided by mini传媒.

If neither of the foregoing options is reasonably available to mini传媒, then either party may terminate the applicable Service and mini传媒’s sole liability, in addition to the indemnification obligations in this section, will be to refund any prepaid Subscription Fees for the Service that was to be provided after the effective date of termination.

To the extent permitted under Law, Customer shall defend mini传媒, at Customer’s expense, from any third-party Claim against mini传媒 arising from: (a) Customer Content; (b) data submitted by Customer, its Affiliates or its Authorized Parties pursuant to its use of the Service as contemplated under this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates such third-party’s Intellectual Property Rights; or (c) violations by Customer, its Affiliates or Authorized Parties of the AUP, and Customer shall indemnify and hold mini传媒 harmless against any Losses relating to such third party Claim.
7.3 Conditions. The indemnitor’s obligations are conditioned on the indemnitee: (a) promptly giving written notice of the third party Claim to the indemnitor (although a delay of notice will not relieve the indemnitor of its obligations under this section except to the extent that the indemnitor is prejudiced by such delay); (b) giving the indemnitor sole control of the defense and settlement of the third party Claim (although indemnitor may not settle any third party Claim unless it unconditionally releases indemnitee of all liability); and (c) providing to the indemnitor, at the indemnitor’s cost, all reasonable assistance.

9.1 Termination by mini传媒. If not otherwise prohibited by Contract Vehicle, mini传媒 may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Customer of a material breach by the Customer or Reseller if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such notice period. In the event this Agreement is terminated, all Order Forms are simultaneously terminated. In the event of a breach by Reseller, and provided Customer is in compliance with all terms of this Agreement, mini传媒 will agree in good faith to negotiate a novation as specified in Section 9.8 (Novation to mini传媒) to allow Customer to continue using the Service. This provision shall not apply to Federal Customers.
9.2 Suspension. mini传媒 may temporarily suspend Customer’s access to, or use of, the Services if mini传媒 believes that (a) there is a significant threat to the functionality, security, integrity, or availability of the Services or any content, data, or applications in the Services; or (b) Customer is accessing or using the Services to commit an illegal act; or (c) Customer is accessing or using the Services in a way that is prohibited by or inconsistent with the service description contained in an applicable Order Specification .

During any suspension period, mini传媒 will make Customer Content available. Any suspension under this paragraph shall not excuse payment as required by the applicable Contract Vehicle or Reseller Agreement.
9.3 Effect of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, all Order Forms shall immediately terminate and Customer shall, as of the date of such expiration or termination, immediately cease accessing and otherwise utilizing the applicable Service (except as permitted under the section entitled “Retrieval of Customer Content” and “Transition Period before Final Termination”) and shall also cease accessing mini传媒 Confidential Information. Termination for any reason shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees accrued or due and payable to Reseller prior to the effective date of termination. Additionally, termination for any reason other than mini传媒’s uncured material breach or as allowed by Reseller Agreement or Contract Vehicle, shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay all future amounts due except as detailed in the applicable Contract Vehicle or Reseller Agreement.
9.4 Transition Period before Final Termination. If this Agreement is terminated and Customer submits a written request to mini传媒 or Reseller prior to any such termination for a one-time transition period, mini传媒 will continue to provide the Service for up to three (3) months after the effective date of such termination (the “Transition Period”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Monthly fees for the Transition Period will be quoted through Reseller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if mini传媒 is enjoined from performing, or termination of this Agreement was due to Customer’s breach, mini传媒 has no obligation to perform under this section unless it receives from Reseller (i) payment of all fees not subject to reasonable and good faith dispute, (ii) prepayment of fees for further services, and (iii) certification of ongoing compliance with the terms of this Agreement during the Transition Period.
9.5 Transition Consulting Services. During a Retrieval Period or Transition Period, mini传媒 will provide cooperation and assistance as Customer may reasonably request to support an orderly transition to another provider of similar software, services, or to Customer’s internal operations. Such cooperation and assistance will be limited to consulting regarding the mini传媒 Service and will be subject to a fee quoted through Reseller that is based on mini传媒’s then-current rates for consulting services and such services will be set out in a statement of work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of termination of this Agreement by mini传媒 for Customer’s breach, mini传媒 may withhold the provision of transition consulting services and condition further performance upon (i) payment of undisputed fees then owed by Reseller and (ii) prepayment of fees for further services by Reseller.
9.6 Retrieval of Customer Content.?Upon Customer’s written request made on or prior to expiration or termination of the Agreement (including any Transition Period), mini传媒 shall give Customer limited access to the Service for a period of up to 60 days, at no additional cost, solely for purposes of retrieving Customer Content (“Retrieval Period”). After such Retrieval Period and subject to mini传媒’s legal obligations, mini传媒 has no obligation to maintain or provide any Customer Content and shall, unless legally prohibited, delete Customer Content by deleting Customer’s applicable Instance; provided, however, that mini传媒 will not be required to remove copies of the Customer Content from its backup media and servers until such time as the backup copies are scheduled to be deleted, provided further that in all cases mini传媒 shall continue to protect the Customer Content in accordance with the Agreement. Customer Content will be made available for extraction in a machine-readable format as described in the Documentation.

9.8 Novation to mini传媒. This End User Subscription Agreement and all applicable Order Forms may be novated to mini传媒: (1) Upon mutual agreement between Customer, Reseller and mini传媒; or (2) if Reseller has failed to pay the applicable subscription fees, there is a material threat of Reseller’s bankruptcy or insolvency, or is otherwise in breach of its Agreement to mini传媒, to Customer, or to the applicable Contract Vehicle, and upon mutual agreement between Customer and mini传媒. Such novation shall be memorialized in a separate, mutually agreed upon novation agreement between the parties. The term of the novated agreement, which will become a Main Subscription Agreement as between Customer and mini传媒, shall be for whatever subscription period was remaining in the Reseller’s Agreement or as otherwise negotiated. mini传媒 and Customer’s obligations and terms and conditions shall be limited to those specified in this End User Subscription Agreement, including all applicable Order Forms, or as otherwise negotiated in the novation agreement.

Such background check shall be in the form generally used by mini传媒 in its initial hiring of employees or contracting for contractors or, as applicable, during the employment-screening process. mini传媒 will not allow any person performing under this Agreement on behalf of mini传媒 to be assigned to have access to Customer Content whose background check revealed a conviction of any violent crime or crime involving theft, dishonesty, moral turpitude, breach of trust, or money laundering.

Other than as expressly stated herein, the remedies provided herein are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other remedies of a party at law or in equity.
10.7 Force Majeure.?Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance under this Agreement for causes beyond that party’s reasonable control and occurring without that party’s fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of government, flood, fire, civil unrest, acts of terror, strikes or other labor problems (other than those involving mini传媒 or Customer employees, respectively) (“Force Majeure”). Dates by which performance obligations are scheduled to be met will be extended for a period of time equal to the time lost due to any delay so caused, provided that notice of the Force Majeure event is given in writing fifteen (15) days after the Force Majeure event begins. Such notice shall identify the nature of the Force Majeure event, its expected duration and the probable impact on the performance of the affected party’s obligations.
10.8 Assignment. Except as specified in Section 9.8 (Novation to mini传媒), neither Customer nor Reseller may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign this Agreement in its entirety (including all Order Forms) without consent of the other party in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets (an “M&A Assignment”) so long as the assignee agrees to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement in an amendment to this Agreement and all past due fees are paid in full or otherwise accounted for in the amendment. In no event shall Customer have the right to assign this Agreement to a direct Competitor of mini传媒. In the event of an M&A Assignment, the non-assigning party shall be entitled to request from the assignee information to demonstrate that the assignee has the necessary resources and expertise to provide the Service. Failure to provide such information shall be a material breach of this Agreement. Any attempt by a party to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement other than as permitted by this section shall be void and of no effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns. This provision shall not apply to Federal Customers.

Except as otherwise provided for in the Public Sector Terms or subsection (c) below, this Agreement and any other ancillary agreement between the parties shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its principles of conflict of law thereof that would require the application of the laws of any other state or jurisdiction.
b.?Process may be served on either party by first-class registered mail, as well as in any other manner authorized by applicable law or court rule. Neither the UCITA nor the United Nations Convention on Contracts for International Sale of Goods will apply to this Agreement, except as expressly adopted herein.

10.10 Export. Each party shall comply with the export laws and regulations of the United States and other applicable jurisdictions in providing and using the Service.

10.11 mini传媒 SLA Service Credits.

The remedies in this section are the Customer’s exclusive remedies for any Failure.
10.12 Publicity. Except as set forth herein, mini传媒 shall not use Customer's name, logos or trademarks, without the prior written consent of Customer, in any written press releases, advertisements and/or marketing materials.

For the avoidance of doubt, this section does not prohibit mini传媒 from referencing Customer's name in a verbal format.
10.13 Miscellaneous.?This Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter and is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation other than those expressly contained in this Agreement.

Addendum A — Public Sector Terms.
The following terms solely apply to a Public Sector Customer.? In the event of a conflict between the EUSA, including any document incorporated by reference in the EUSA, and these Public Sector Terms, these Public Sector Terms shall apply.
1.?FOIA.?mini传媒 acknowledges that Customer may be compelled to disclose certain mini传媒 Confidential Information pursuant to the Federal Freedom of Information Act and/or any state equivalents or other applicable public disclosure Laws. A disclosure by the Customer of mini传媒’s Confidential Information to the extent required by Law shall not be considered a breach of the Agreement, provided the Customer promptly provides mini传媒 with prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted), follows the process set forth in any applicable public records Law, and provides reasonable assistance, at mini传媒’s cost, if mini传媒 wishes to contest the disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, in the event of any request by a government agency or law enforcement authority for access to Customer Content, mini传媒 will seek to redirect the inquiry to Customer. In all such cases, mini传媒 will take all reasonable and legally permissible measures to protect the Customer Content and to inform Customer of such demand.
2. ??FERPA. To the extent Customer is an educational institution subject to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”) and determines that mini传媒 is a School Official for purposes of 34 CFR §99.31(a)(1)(i)(B), mini传媒 will comply with its obligations thereunder by complying with the terms of this Agreement and the DPE.
3. Federal Government End Use Provisions. mini传媒 provides the pre-existing, commercial Service, including related software and technology, for federal government end use solely in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and mini传媒 provides only the technical data and rights as provided herein. If a government agency has a “need for” rights not conveyed under these terms, it must negotiate with mini传媒 to determine whether there are acceptable terms for transferring additional rights. A mutually acceptable addendum specifically conveying such rights must be executed by the parties in order to convey such rights beyond those set forth herein. For avoidance of doubt, mini传媒 does not currently provide the Service for use in furtherance of a federal prime or subcontract.
4.?Applicability of Product Terms. The mini传媒 Service is provided as described in the applicable Order Form and Product Terms used by mini传媒 in its normal course of business. With regards to mini传媒’s obligations to Customer, the Product Terms applicable to a particular SKU are available here:?/en-us/legal/universal-contract-terms-and-conditions/index.html. Any terms and conditions in the Product Terms that require Customer to indemnify mini传媒 or any third party or that are otherwise prohibited by Law shall not apply to Customer. The description of the Service in the Product Terms shall take precedence over any conflicting descriptions.
5. Governing Law; Venue. If Customer is:
a.?A Federal Customer, then this Agreement and any other ancillary agreement between the parties shall be governed and construed in accordance with U.S. federal law, and jurisdiction and venue shall be as required or permitted by federal law or regulation.
b.?A Public Sector Customer other than a Federal Customer, then this Agreement and any other ancillary agreement between the parties shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of such Customer’s state, and jurisdiction and venue shall be as required by the laws of that state.
6.?Termination Rights by Law.?If Customer relies on funding which is allocated at the federal, state and/or local level to fund the Service in the Agreement, then the following shall apply:
Customer intends to continue the Agreement for its entire term and to satisfy its obligations thereunder. Customer will seek to obtain funding for each fiscal year of an Order Form. For each succeeding fiscal period: (a) Customer agrees to include in its budget request appropriations sufficient to cover Customer’s obligations under the Agreement; (b) Customer agrees to use all lawful and reasonable means to secure appropriations; and (c) Customer agrees it will not use non-appropriations as a means of terminating the Agreement in order to acquire functionally equivalent products or services from a third party. If funds are not appropriated or otherwise made available to support continuation of performance in a subsequent fiscal period, Customer may terminate the impacted portion of an Order Form, in whole or in part. In accordance with the foregoing, Customer will give Reseller written notice thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any such termination. All obligations of Customer to make payments after the termination date will cease and all mini传媒 obligations to provide the Service will terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer will pay for (i) the entire time period the Service was made available to Customer prior to Reseller’s receipt of notice of termination for non-appropriation; and (ii) for all amounts and Service periods for which Customer has received services. Customer will not execute any Order Form unless funds have been appropriated for at least the first year’s subscription fee. Upon termination, Customer will remit all amounts due, and all costs reasonably incurred up to the date of termination. Upon request by Reseller and/or mini传媒, Customer will identify the extent to which funds have been allocated for individual Order Forms throughout the term of the Agreement.
