- Termination for Breach. Either Party will be entitled to terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party commits a material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of being notified of such breach.

Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, Customer will immediately (i) discontinue use of the Corsha IdP Software system or SaaS Platform, (ii) either return to Corsha, at Customer’s expense, all tangible copies of the Corsha Software and Documentation, or remove, delete, and otherwise destroy all electronic copies of the Corsha Software and Documentation, and (iii) execute and deliver to Corsha written certification of its compliance with the foregoing.
- Effect of Termination. Termination of this Agreement by either Party will not act as a waiver of any breach of this Agreement and will not act as a release of either Party from any liability for breach of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Neither Party will be liable to the other Party for damages of any kind solely as a result of terminating this Agreement. Termination of this Agreement by a Party will be without prejudice to any other right or remedy of such Party under this Agreement or applicable law.

Customer’s liability and obligation to pay any fees or other amounts that have accrued prior to such expiration or termination will also survive such expiration or termination.
- Fees
- Total Fees. As full consideration for the applicable Subscription or License, Customer will pay Corsha the associated Fee in the applicable ordering documentation, along with any fees for contracted Additional Support Services from Corsha indicated in the ordering documentation. The Subscription/License Fee and the fee for Additional Support Services together constitute the Total Fees, except in the case of True-Up, as set forth below. Corsha reserves the right to modify its commercial Subscription or License fees, as well as its fees for Additional Support Services, at any time. Such new prices shall not apply for an active Subscription or License during the then-active Period covered in the ordering documentation.
- Failure to Pay. Fees that are not paid within the specified time period will be subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection.
- True-Up. If the monthly usage of the Corsha Software Enterprise license or Corsha Cloud SaaS Platform subscription by the Customer exceeds the current Subscription/License Tier usage parameters in the applicable ordering documentation for the number of Managed Machines (Corsha Authenticators deployed) or the number of Corsha Credential Checks (“Higher Usage”) for two consecutive months, Customer will be subject to the following true-up provisions:
- For monthly Subscription/License usage that constitutes Higher Usage, the Customer will automatically move up to the next higher Tier starting at the beginning of the next Subscription/License Period and shall pay the corresponding Fee with that higher Tier.
- For annual Subscription/License usage that constitutes Higher Usage, Customer will automatically move up to the next higher Tier starting at the beginning of the next month of the Subscription/License Period and shall remain at that higher Tier for the remainder of the Subscription/License Period. Corsha shall invoice Customer for the difference between the beginning Subscription/License Fee and the Fee for the new higher Tier (“True-Up Fee”). Nothing in this Agreement prohibits multiple true-up events during a Subscription/License Period.
- Taxes. If any authority imposes on the Total Fees or any True-Up Fees a duty, tax (including without limitation sales tax), levy, or fee, excluding those based on Corsha’s net income, then as between the Parties, Customer will be responsible for payment of those amounts. All payments made by Customer to Corsha under this Agreement will be made free and clear of any withholding or deduction for taxes. If any such taxes (for example, international withholding taxes) are required to be withheld on any payment, Customer will pay such additional amounts as are necessary so that the net amount received by Corsha is equal to the amount then due and payable under this Agreement. Corsha will provide Customer with such tax forms as are reasonably requested in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding or deduction for taxes in respect of payments made under this Agreement.
- Support Services and Data
- Integration. Under the appropriate License and at a mutually agreed upon time following Corsha’s receipt of a request for such services, Corsha will assist the Customer, as necessary, with the integration of the Corsha Enterprise system within Customer-controlled infrastructure and/or on Customer-owned equipment.
- Support. During the contracted Subscription/License period, Corsha will provide support services for both Corsha Enterprise and Corsha Cloud SaaS as specified in the ordering documentation.
- Data. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Corsha shall have the right to collect and analyze data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of Corsha IdP Software system and SaaS Platform, as well as related services, systems and technologies (“Data”). Further, Corsha shall be free (during and after the term hereof) to use Data (i) to determine True-Up Fees, and (ii) to improve and enhance Corsha IdP Software and Cloud SaaS Platform, and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with Corsha the Corsha product and service offerings. Upon request, Customer shall provide Corsha with monthly reports containing Data. Corsha may disclose Data solely in aggregate or other de-identified form in connection with its business. No rights or licenses are granted except as expressly set forth herein.
- Feedback. Customer may from time to time provide suggestions, comments or other feedback to Corsha, including suggestions for product or service offerings, changes, improvements or new functionality or capabilities (“Feedback”). Feedback is entirely voluntary, and Corsha is not required to treat Feedback as Confidential or Proprietary Information of Customer and will be free to use Feedback and ideas generated from in Corsha’s future product development (including but not limited to improvement of Corsha IdP Software and SaaS Platform, and otherwise without restriction.

- Limitations. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Corsha will have no obligations under this Section 7 with respect to any Claim to the extent that the alleged infringement is based on: (i) Corsha’s compliance with Customer’s specifications or instructions; (ii) modifications or additions to Corsha Cloud or Corsha Enterprise (other than modifications or additions by Corsha that are included in Corsha Cloud or Corsha Enterprise generally made available by Corsha); (iii) Customer’s continuation of an allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof; (iv) the combination or use of Corsha Cloud or Corsha Enterprise with hardware, software, data or other materials not provided by Corsha; or (v) use of Corsha Cloud or Corsha Enterprise other than in accordance with this Agreement and the Documentation.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY HEREIN.
- Aggregate Liability.

- Exceptions. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent required to be disclosed by a court or governmental agency pursuant to a statute, regulation, or valid order; provided, however, that (a) the Receiving Party first notifies the Disclosing Party and gives the Disclosing Party the opportunity to seek a protective order, or to contest such required disclosure; and (b) the Receiving Party shall continue to treat the Confidential Information disclosed hereunder as Confidential Information for all other purposes.
