1. Remedies. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Services have been developed at significant cost and have significant commercial value to Graphite, and that Graphite may suffer irreparable harm as a result of any breach of this Agreement for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, in addition to all other remedies available at law or otherwise (which Graphite does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder), Graphite will be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach, and Customer hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or the showing of actual monetary damages in connection with such claim.

2. Marketing. Customer agrees to allow Graphite to refer to Customer as a customer of Graphite and/or user of the Services, including by referring to the company or entity that employs or engages Customer (if Customer is not a company or entity). Customer hereby grants Graphite with the necessary rights and licenses to use Customer's (and if different, its company's) name and logo on the Graphite Platform and in Graphite's promotional materials to identify Customer (and if different, its company) as a customer of Graphite in accordance with Customer's brand guidelines (if applicable).

3. Modifications to this Agreement.

We will notify you of substantial modifications by posting notice of the changes on the Graphite Platform or by sending you a direct email communication. You are responsible for reviewing and becoming familiar with any such modifications. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of the modifications will be deemed acceptance of the modified terms and agreement to be bound thereby.

7. Governing Law; Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of Law principles. Customer and Graphite agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any action brought between the parties under this Agreement shall be the federal courts sitting in the Southern District of New York, and each Customer and Graphite hereby agrees and submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such purpose, to the exclusion of all other venues, forums or jurisdictions. The parties expressly disclaim the application of the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods to this Agreement.

8. Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement, or any of its rights of obligations hereunder, without the other party's prior written consent; provided, however, that Graphite may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without Customer's prior written consent (i) to one of its affiliates, or (ii) to any entity that acquires (whether by merger, reorganization, acquisition, sale or otherwise) all or substantially all of the business or assets of Graphite to which this Agreement relates. Any assignment made in violation with this Section 16. shall be void, and this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and assigns of the parties.

9. Subcontracting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Graphite may use the services of subcontractors and permit them to exercise the rights granted to Graphite in order to provide the Services under this Agreement. These subcontractors may include, for example, Graphite's hosting, infrastructure and CDN providers. Graphite remains responsible for compliance of any such subcontractor with the terms of this Agreement and the overall performance of the Services as required under this Agreement.

10. Relationship of the Parties. Graphite and Customer's relationship is solely that of independent contractors, and this Agreement will not establish any partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise or agency between Graphite and Customer. Neither Graphite nor Customer will have the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other's behalf without the other's prior written consent.

11. Export Regulation. The Services utilize software and technology that may be subject to U.S. export control Laws, including the U.S. Export Administration Act and its associated regulations. You shall not, directly or indirectly, export, re-export, or release the Services or the software or technology included in the Services to, or make the Services or the software or technology included in the Services accessible from, any jurisdiction or country to which export, re-export, or release is prohibited by Law. You shall comply with all applicable Laws and complete all required undertakings (including obtaining any necessary export license or other governmental approval), prior to exporting, re-exporting, releasing, or otherwise making the Services or the software or technology included in the Services available outside the United States.

12. U.S. Government Restricted Rights. Each of the software components that constitute the Services and the Documentation is a “commercial item” as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. § 12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202, as applicable. Accordingly, if you are an agency of the U.S. Government or any contractor therefor, you receive only those rights with respect to the Services and Documentation as are granted to all other end users, in accordance with (a) 48 C.F.R. § 227.7201 through 48 C.F.R. § 227.7204, with respect to the Department of Defense and their contractors, or (b) 48 C.F.R. § 12.212, with respect to all other US Government customers and their contractors.

13. Waiver. Any waiver of the provisions of this Agreement or of a party's rights or remedies under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective. Failure, neglect, or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time, will not be construed and will not be deemed to be a waiver of such party's rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party's right to take subsequent action. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, no exercise or enforcement by either party of any right or remedy under this Agreement will preclude the enforcement by such party of any other right or remedy under this Agreement or that such party is entitled by law to enforce.

14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, unenforceable, or void by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and such holding will not affect the remaining terms. The invalid, unenforceable, or void provision will be deemed amended or replaced by a valid, legal, and enforceable provision that matches the intent of the original language as closely as possible.

15. Force Majeure. Except for payment obligations, neither party shall be liable to the other party for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement if the delay or failure is due to circumstances beyond the affected party's reasonable control, including acts of God, fire, explosion, hurricane, flood, natural disaster, unusually severe or abnormal weather, riots or other civil disturbances, war, acts of terrorism, strikes, labor disputes, third-party Internet service interruptions or slowdowns, vandalism or “hacker” attacks, pandemics, governmental demands or requirements, shutdowns or any reasonable necessity to not operate, or to reduce any operation, in order to protect the safety of people.

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any and all Orders, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof. The parties agree that any term or condition stated in any Customer purchase order or in any other of Customer's order documentation (excluding Orders) is null and void.

17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which is deemed an original, but all of which together are deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, email, DocuSign, or other means of electronic transmission is deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

18. California Residents. If you are a California resident, in accordance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1789.3, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112 Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
