5. ROYALTY LICENSE PAYMENTS AND REPORTING

a. Royalty License Fee: The grant of license and right under Article 4(a)-(b) shall remain royalty-free unless and until an airline customer of Thales selects your Application(s), installs your Application(s) onboard its aircraft, and uses your Application(s) in the airline customer’s commercial operations as part of Thales’ in-flight entertainment system. Accordingly, for each such aircraft installed with your Application(s), Thales will pay you an Application royalty license fee of seventy percent (70.0%) of the net license fee actually paid to Thales solely for the Application ("Royalty License Fee"). The Royalty License Fee calculation of seventy percent (70.0%) shall derive from one hundred percent (100.0%), provided that such one hundred percent (100.0%) excludes: (i) any and all applicable taxes, duties, or governmental fees arising from or related to this Agreement, including but not limited to the licensing or sub-licensing of your Applications and/or the payment of the Royalty License Fee; and (ii) any fees or charges paid or payable by Thales’ airline customer that are related, supplementary, or complementary to the Application for maintenance, support, integration, or related services. Upon mutual and prior agreement by you and Thales in writing, the Royalty License Fee may be calculated at an amount higher or lower than the seventy percent (70.0%) amount as described herein.

b. You shall bear and be responsible for any income taxes, value-added taxes, sales taxes, or other taxes arising from or related to this Agreement, including but not limited to licensing or sub-licensing of your Applications and/or the payment of the Royalty License Fee. Any Royalty License Fee payment to you is inclusive of any and all taxes that may apply. Thales maintains the right, however, to deduct or withhold any applicable taxes from such Royalty License Fee payment, such that the reduced Royalty License Fee payment shall constitute payment in full to you. All payments to you will be made in US dollars (US$) only.

c. You will indemnify, defend and hold Thales and its affiliates (including any respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, successors and assigns) harmless from and against any loss, claim, liability, damage, fine, penalty, expense, action or cause of action (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) related to any taxes or governmental charges that arise out of or result from this Agreement, including but not limited to the licensing or sub-licensing of your Applications and/or the payment of the Royalty License Fee. You will pay any reasonable attorneys’ fees and all damages so awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or consented to in a settlement agreement between you, on behalf of Thales, and such third party.

d. Royalty Reports: Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, Thales will provide you with a written or electronic royalty report. Each report will include a list of the number of aircraft installed with your Application(s) and dates for commencement of actual commercial use of your Application(s) on such aircraft. Thales will submit a purchase order to you based on the royalty report.

e. Offset: In the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason, Thales has the right to offset any Royalty License Fee(s) due to you against an amount equivalent to any losses and costs incurred by Thales and/or its airline customers arising from or related to your acts or omissions under this Agreement ("Losses"). If subsequent to the offset: (i) the Losses are greater than the Royalty License Fee(s) due to you, then you shall be paid no Royal License Fee and shall owe Thales the difference of the offset; or (ii) the Royalty License Fee(s) due to you are greater than the Losses, then you shall be paid the difference of the offset as full and final payment.

f. Invoices: Invoices submitted by you shall identify your Application(s) and the applicable purchase order number(s) provided by Thales. Invoices shall be sent to the attention of:

a. You agree that Thales may terminate your access to the Site and/or terminate this Agreement with you in Thales’ sole discretion, with or without notice to you, and without any liability for Thales.

b. You agree that any breach by you of this Agreement may constitute an unlawful and unfair business practice and will cause irreparable harm to Thales, for which monetary damages would be inadequate, and you consent to Thales obtaining any injunctive or equitable relief that Thales deems necessary or appropriate in such circumstances. These remedies are in addition to any other remedies Thales may have at law or in equity.

c. If Thales does take any legal action against you as a result of your breach of this Agreement, Thales will be entitled to recover from you, and you agree to pay, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of such action, in addition to any other relief granted to Thales. You agree that Thales will not be liable to you or to any third party for termination of your access to the Site and/or termination of this Agreement with you.

At Thales’ request, you agree to provide certification of such destruction to Thales.

e. Any termination of this Agreement will only apply to future licensing and sub-licensing of your Application(s) on a going-forward basis and will not in any way affect any Application(s) or related sub-licenses or existing rights at the time of such termination. In addition, regardless of termination of this Agreement, Thales shall have the right to use and/or distribute any pre-paid Application sub-licenses until such inventory is depleted.

c. In the event a third party approaches Thales, its affiliate(s), and/or airline customer(s) (the "Indemnitee(s)") alleging that the Application(s) provided by you under this Agreement infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights or other rights, you shall promptly procure an irrevocable release for Indemnitees, free of cost to Indemnitees, from such alleged infringement claim(s) for past use; and, for continued use of the Application(s), subject to the infringement claim(s), you shall (i) procure for the relevant Indemnitees a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, and irrevocable license to continue to use the Application(s); and if unable to procure such a license under Article 10(c)(i), you shall (ii) modify or replace the Application(s) so as to make it non-infringing to the satisfaction of such third party while retaining its form, fit and functionality.

d. Where a third party has initiated a lawsuit or other similar proceeding (including the seeking of preliminary injunction) against the Indemnitee(s) based on an allegation that an Application(s) infringes the intellectual property rights or other rights of such third party, the relevant Indemnitees shall notify you of such occurrence as soon as commercially reasonable, and you shall assume and diligently conduct the defense of such lawsuit or other proceedings and pay all costs relating thereto, including attorneys’ fees. If you fail to assume the defense within a period of thirty (30) days, the relevant Indemnitees may conduct the defense, and you shall reimburse the relevant Indemnitees for the costs incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

e. Any settlement of the lawsuit or other proceeding referred to in Articles (c) and (d) above by you shall be subject to you taking, at your own expense and costs, the measures set out in Articles 10(c)(i) and (ii). When defending or settling the claim, you shall refrain from making statements contrary to the Indemnitees’ interests, and shall not enter into any settlement without Thales’ consent if such settlement would require Thales or the concerned Indemnitee to make any admissions, to undertake or refrain from taking any actions in the marketplace, or to make any payments.

f. In the event you are not successful in your defense, in whole or in part, in the lawsuit or other proceeding referred to in Article 10(d), you shall (i) reimburse the relevant Indemnitees for any damages or costs awarded against the relevant Indemnitees related to the past use that is found to be infringing; (ii) promptly take, at your own expense and costs, one of the actions as defined in Articles 10(c)(i) and (ii) to cease the infringement; and (iii) indemnify the relevant Indemnitees for damages and losses incurred.

g. Thales shall, upon your written request and at your expense, provide reasonable assistance to you to support you in the settlement of and/or defense against the allegation, lawsuit or other proceeding referred to in Article 10(d). In addition, you agree to provide such reasonable assistance to Thales where Thales undertakes to conduct the defense as provided in Article 10(d).

h. You shall not be liable under Article 10(c) to (f) to the extent the allegation or claim of infringement is based solely on the unauthorized alteration or modification of the Application(s) by Thales and but for such unauthorized modification or alteration, there would not be an infringement or misappropriation claim.

  1. AMENDMENTS TO THE AGREEMENT, AND/OR WITHDRAWAL OF YOUR APPLICATION

a. Changes to the Agreement and/or Site: Thales reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to amend all or any part of this Agreement at any time with or without notice to you and without liability for Thales. If and when Thales amends the Agreement in any manner, then your continued use of the Site and/or your acceptance of any Royalty Fee(s) shall constitute and be deemed as acceptance of such an amended Agreement. It is your sole responsibility to review and become familiar with this Agreement and any amendments thereto. The current, legally binding version of the Agreement will always be available on the Site for your review.

b. Withdrawal of Application(s): Thales may determine in its sole discretion, and without any liability, to make any Application(s) available or unavailable through the Site. Thales may stop any transaction or take other actions as needed to restrict access to or availability of any Application(s) that does not comply with this Agreement or that otherwise might adversely affect Thales or an airline customer. Inclusion of your Application(s) in the Site, or any withdrawal of an Application, does not relieve you of any obligations under this Agreement.

c. Any withdrawal of an Application will only apply to future licensing and sub-licensing of your Application(s) on a going-forward basis and will not in any way affect any Application(s) or related sub-licenses or existing rights at the time of such withdrawal. In addition, regardless of withdrawal of an Application, Thales shall have the right to use and/or distribute any pre-paid Application sub-licenses until such inventory is depleted.

  1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE

a. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you may not copy or publicly disclose any part of the Site in any manner to any other computer, server, web site or other medium without Thales’ express prior written consent.

b. You may use information on Thales products and services (such as data sheets, knowledge base articles, and similar materials) purposely made available by Thales for downloading from the Site ("Information"), provided that you (i) do not remove any proprietary notice language in the Information, (ii) use such Information only for your personal, non-commercial informational purposes and do not publicly disclose such Information, (iii) make no modifications to any such Information, and (iv) do not make any additional representations or warranties relating to such Information.

c. You agree that any software, hardware, materials, and documentation (such as but not limited to a software development kit) provided to you will be considered and referred to as "Thales Confidential Information."

d. Unless otherwise expressly agreed or permitted in writing by Thales, you agree not to disclose, publish, or disseminate any Thales Confidential Information to anyone other than to other Registered TAP Developers who are employees working for the same business entity as you and then only to the extent that Thales does not otherwise prohibit such disclosure. Except for the sole purpose of this Agreement, you agree not to use Thales Confidential Information in any way, including, without limitation, for your own or any third party's benefit, without the prior written approval of Thales in each instance. You agree to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure, publication, or dissemination of Thales Confidential Information. You agree not to reverse engineer, de-compile, or disassemble any Thales Confidential Information. You acknowledge that unauthorized disclosure or use of Thales Confidential Information could cause irreparable harm and significant injury to Thales that may be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, you agree that Thales will have the right to seek immediate injunctive relief to enforce your obligations under this Agreement in addition to any other rights and remedies Thales may have. If you are required by law, regulation or the valid binding order of a court of competent jurisdiction to disclose Thales Confidential Information, you may make such disclosure, but only if you have notified Thales before making such disclosure and have used your best efforts to limit the disclosure and to seek confidential and protective treatment of such information. A disclosure pursuant to the previous sentence will not relieve you of your obligations to hold such information as Thales Confidential Information.

  1. DISCLAIMERS

a. THALES DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF SECURITY, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WHETHER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SITE, THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY MATERIALS PROVIDED BY THALES TO YOU, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO A SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT.

All understandings, agreements, or warranties, if any, take place directly between the vendors and the prospective users.

You will not consent to the entry of a judgment or settlement of a Claim without Thales’ prior written consent. You will use counsel reasonably satisfactory to Thales to defend each Claim. If Thales reasonably determines that a Claim might adversely affect it, then Thales may take control of the defense without limiting your indemnification obligations. Your obligations under this Article 15 are independent of your other obligations under the Agreement.

  1. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

This Agreement and any action related thereto shall be governed, controlled, interpreted and defined by and under the laws of the State of New York and the federal laws of United States of America, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

Thales will not accept any counter-offers to this Agreement, and all such counter-offers are hereby categorically rejected. Thales’ failure to insist on or enforce strict performance of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver by Thales of any provision or any right it has to enforce this Agreement, nor shall any course of conduct between Thales and you or any other party be deemed to modify any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to confer any rights or remedies on any third parties. This Agreement will bind your successors but may not be assigned, in whole or part, by you without the prior written approval of Thales. Any non-conforming assignment shall be null and void.
