3. PRICE, PAYMENT, AND DELIVERY
3.1 Fees. Customer agrees to pay to Spot AI the fees for Services as specified in the Order Forms (“Fees”). Shipments for the IVR and any cameras are FOB Origin.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Customer provides Spot AI with a valid certificate from an applicable federal, state or local tax authority establishing that Customer is exempt from a specific tax in which such tax authority has jurisdiction over at least ten (10) days prior to the due date upon which such tax must be paid, Spot AI will refrain from paying, withholding or otherwise remitting such tax on behalf of Customer. Customer shall indemnify Spot AI with respect to any such taxes, interest, penalties or losses, including reasonable accounting and legal fees, incurred in the event any such tax authority later invalidates or revokes such certificate or otherwise seeks collection of such tax from Spot AI. Customer agrees and understands that the taxation of any transaction and the calculation of taxes may be affected by the delivery method and delivery location of the Software and Hardware.
4. TERM, SUSPENSION and TERMINATION
4.1 Term.

Order Forms will renew automatically for additional successive one (1) year terms, unless (i) signed Order Form specifies different renewal terms, (ii) Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with Section 4.2, or (iii) notice of non-renewal is given by one party to the other party at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then-current Subscription Term.
4.2 Suspension. Spot AI reserves the right to suspend the Services if Spot AI reasonably concludes, with sufficient tangible evidence that Customer or a User’s use (i) is, or has a high likelihood of, causing immediate or ongoing harm to Spot AI, its customers, or any third party; (ii) poses a threat of interference with, or obstruction to, the operation of the Services that would likely have an adverse effect on the delivery of the Services to other customers of Spot AI or on the systems or content of any other customer of Spot AI, (iii) is a Prohibited Use, or (iv) will likely cause, or has already caused, Spot AI to be in violation of applicable law (“Suspension Acts”). In the extraordinary event that Spot AI must suspend the Services, Spot AI shall immediately, but no later than twenty-four (24) hours, notify Customer of the anticipated suspension and provide Customer with seventy-two (72) hours prior written notification of the suspension of Services for the Parties to diligently attempt to resolve the issue except in the case(s) where suspension of Services are needed to prevent irreparable damage to other Spot AI customers. Spot AI shall not be liable to Customer or to any third party for any liabilities, claims or expenses arising from or relating to any suspension of the Services in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Section will limit Spot AI’s rights under any other section of this Agreement.
4.3 Effect of Suspension. If Spot AI suspends or disables Customer’s right to access or use any portion or all of the Services pursuant to Section 4.2, Customer will remain responsible for any applicable Fees and charges for any Services to which Customer or their Users continue to have access. If Customer is unable or unwilling to remedy any Suspension Acts during the suspension, such Suspension Acts shall be considered a material breach, and Spot AI may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.4.
4.4 Termination. Each party will have the right to terminate this Agreement if the other party breaches any material term of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof. Customer's breach of its obligations under Sections 5 (Intellectual Property Rights) or 9 (Confidentiality) or if Customer files for bankruptcy, becomes insolvent, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, shall result in an immediate termination.
4.5 Effects of Termination. Upon any termination hereunder, Customer shall immediately cease use of, and shall irretrievably destroy or return (at Spot AI’s request), all copies of any Services and Spot AI Confidential Information in every form. Spot AI will give Customer seven (7) days to download or otherwise save Customer Content, after which Customer will have no access to the Spot AI dashboard or interface, and Spot AI will have no access to Customer Content.
4.6 Survival. Sections 2.5, 3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 5, 6.2, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 shall survive such termination. In the event of any termination hereunder, Customer shall not be entitled to any refund of any payments made by Customer, except to the extent the cause of termination has been finally determined to result from a breach of Section 6.1 (Performance Warranty), in which case, Customer is entitled to a pro-rata refund of any prepaid, unused Fees. Termination for any other reason shall not relieve Customer from its obligation to pay Fees that remain unpaid.
5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

Customer represents and warrants that neither Customer’s collection, use and/or transmission of the Customer Content, including video recordings and images and biometric data, if applicable, nor Customer's use of Customer Content as described herein will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party's intellectual property rights or rights of publicity or privacy or result in the violation of applicable law.

This obligation of Spot AI shall not apply if the alleged infringement or misappropriation results from (i) Use of the Software in conjunction with any other software; (ii) Use of the Software with an apparatus, system or device other than the Hardware and cameras or video recorders supplied by Customer; (iii) failure to promptly use an update provided by Spot AI if such infringement or misappropriation could have been avoided by use of the update; or (iv) any use not permitted by this Agreement.

Customer shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of such claim and may appear, at its own expense, through counsel reasonably acceptable to Spot AI. Spot AI may settle or mitigate damages from any claim or potential claim by substituting alternative substantially equivalent non-infringing programs and supporting documentation for the Software.

Customer may not settle or compromise such a claim without Spot AI’s prior written consent.
