11.6Survival After Termination.  All provisions of this Agreement that contemplate performance or observance following its termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, Sections 11.5, 12, 13 and 17 of this Agreement and any NDA (as defined below), shall survive its termination or expiration.

11.7No Waiver for Failure to Terminate.  The failure by either Party to terminate this Agreement for a default or breach of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the right to terminate this Agreement for any default or breach or any other or subsequent default or breach.

11.8Effect of Termination Notice.  Upon written notification from either Party of its intent to terminate for cause or for convenience (a “Termination Notice”), Purchaser shall not issue new contracts to provide Service, or extend or renew any contracts to provide Service following the date of such Termination Notice.  

11.9 Assignment of FPP Contracts Upon Termination.  Upon termination of this Agreement, Capstone will have the right of first refusal to assume some or all of Purchaser’s FPP contracts. (“Assigned FPP Contracts”).  Purchaser agrees to provide to Capstone the complete files and documentation maintained by Purchaser for each Assigned FPP Contract so that Capstone may continue FPP services seamlessly to such End User.  Purchaser and Capstone will determine the appropriate amount of compensation due either party for each Assigned FPP Contract on a case-by-case basis.  Purchaser will provide all reasonable assistance to Capstone to fulfill the FPP service obligations under the Assigned FPP Service Contracts and/or to secure a qualified replacement for Purchaser.  

11.10No Ongoing Rights.  Following any termination or expiration of this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will have no continuing right to serve the Products and provide Parts and Services (other than Purchaser’s existing obligations to provide Services which are not obligations owed pursuant to Assigned Service Contracts) regardless of when and under what circumstances this Agreement is terminated.

12. Confidential Information and Intellectual Property.

12.1 Definitions. “Confidential Information” means any information disclosed by a Party hereto (the Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Recipient”) or derived or learned as a result of the disclosure of Confidential Information or incident to the relationship governed by this Agreement, either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally or by inspection of tangible objects that relates to:

12.1.1"Intellectual Property,” which means all ideas, concepts, processes, techniques, inventions, innovations, products, formulas, technologies, know-how, data, discoveries, works of authorship, copyrightable works, patent rights, trade secret rights, copyright rights, trademark rights, service mark rights, or other intellectual property arising out of, embodied in, or related to the Products or Parts or the technology of a Party, and any enhancements, improvements, derivative works, and other derivations thereof, whether now in existence or hereafter developed, invented or otherwise derived; and/or

12.1.3Exclusions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include any information that a Recipient can establish, by means of its written records or other competent, written evidence: (i) was publicly known and available in the public domain prior to the time of disclosure to the Recipient by the Disclosing Party; (ii) becomes publicly known and available in the public domain after disclosure to the Recipient by Disclosing Party through no action or inaction of Recipient; (iii) is lawfully in the possession of Recipient at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (iv) is independently developed by Recipient without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information by individuals who were not exposed to Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (v) is received from a third party who is not subject to any duty of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party.

12.3 Product Modification and Reverse Engineering.  Purchaser shall not in any manner, directly or through others, modify or disassemble for the purpose of reverse engineering any Products or Parts.

12.4 Ownership of Confidential Information, Intellectual Property Rights.  All Intellectual Property rights and Confidential Information relating to Products, Parts, and Services, and all other information provided by Capstone to Purchaser under this Agreement, shall remain the sole property of Capstone and shall be returned promptly to Capstone upon termination or expiration of this Agreement (alternatively, Purchaser may provide certification that such documents, copies thereof and notes and memoranda containing such Capstone Confidential Information have been destroyed such that no Capstone Confidential Information may be gleaned from them).

12.5 Third Party Obligations for Confidential Information, Intellectual Property Rights.  If Purchaser engages or uses any third party in the execution of any of its obligations under this Agreement, Purchaser shall cause each such third party to be bound by an enforceable written agreement, of which Capstone is expressly made a third party beneficiary, with terms and conditions protecting Capstone’s Intellectual Property and Confidential Information, and shielding Capstone from liabilities of all types, that are at least as stringent as those set forth in this Agreement.  Purchaser represents and warrants that each such written agreement, which does not include Capstone as a signatory party, shall be enforceable against the third party by Capstone.  

12.6 Ownership of Intellectual Property Rights for Development Efforts.  The Parties shall endeavor to establish their respective intellectual property rights prior to undertaking any development efforts. In the absence of such determination of rights, and subject to Section 12.4 above, the Parties shall jointly own any rights to new technology or to improvements to existing technology that result from any development efforts. The Parties shall cooperate to ensure protection of those rights, whether by patent, trade secret, trademark, copyright, or other such protection; provided, however, that in the event of any such rights that are jointly owned, neither Party shall be required to account to the other Party for any exploitation of those jointly owned rights.

12.7 Press Releases.  Press releases and other like publicity, which mentions this Agreement or the other Party by name, shall not be released without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.  No such prior written consent shall be required if the foregoing information is enclosed in disclosure reports and filings which either Party is required to make as a matter of law.

13. Compliance with Applicable Law.  Purchaser shall ensure that the Services and use of Products and/or Parts, comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and standards in jurisdictions in which they are being used.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall supply and fit all signs and safety notices to the Products and Parts and

13.1 Improper Payments.  Purchase and Capstone represent and warrant that they have not made, or promised to make, any payment to any public official in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other applicable laws.  Purchaser and Capstone represent and warrant that they are aware of the applicable United States regulations governing bribery, agency, and government purchases and any other relevant regulations and that they shall comply with such rules and regulations.  Each Party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against the consequences of a violation by it of this provision.

13.2 Export Regulations.  Purchase represents and warrants that it has and will comply in all material respects with all provisions of United States export regulations and laws.  Purchaser acknowledges that it has read and is familiar with these regulations and laws and will, for a period of at least two (2) years after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, fully comply with all provisions of these regulations and shall permit Capstone’s representatives and/or representatives of the United States government to inspect all such records as may be required.  Purchaser agrees to provide Capstone, upon Capstone’s request, with copies of bills of lading and other shipping documentation in order to demonstrate Purchaser’s compliance with the foregoing.  Purchaser will obtain written assurance from End Users of the Products that they are not intended to be used for any purpose prohibited by United States export laws and regulations and will provide Capstone with such information and documentation as Capstone reasonably requests in order to verify that Purchaser’s export of the Products complies with applicable United States export regulations and laws

14. DISCLAIMER.  EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN Section 7.2 (PuRSUANT TO CAPSTONE’S END USER LICENSE) AND Section 8 (FOR THE WARRANTY GIVEN TO PURCHASER) NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY ARE GIVEN IN RESPECT OF PRODUCTS OR PARTS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ALL SUCH WARRANTIES HEREBY ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED.

15.1 Capstone, at its own expense, will defend or at its option settle, any claim, suit or proceeding brought against Purchaser, and pay any liabilities, damages and costs awarded in any such suit or proceeding, if the suit or proceeding is based on a claim that a Product or Part infringes any United States Intellectual Property right of any third party (other than those arising out of conditions described in Section 15.3).  Capstone shall have the liability expressed in this paragraph with respect to a claim that a Product or Part infringes any United States Intellectual Property right of any third party, provided that:

15.1.1Purchaser or its End User, as applicable, notifies Capstone in writing within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of any such claim;

15.2 If a Product or Part is held, or believed by Capstone, to infringe any United States Intellectual Property right of a third party, Capstone shall have the sole option in its sole discretion and at its sole expense to:

15.2.1modify the Product or Part to cause the same to be non-infringing;

15.2.2obtain a license to continue using the Product or Part for Purchaser; or

Capstone shall have the right to refuse to supply additional Products or Parts subject to a claim or threatened claim of infringement.  

15.3 In no event shall Capstone be liable for any claim of infringement, and Purchaser and End User agree to protect and defend Capstone in the same manner and extent that Capstone has agreed to defend Purchaser as set forth in Section 15.1, when such claim is based on the use of any Product or Part altered in whole or in part by Purchaser and/or its End User or used in connection with any equipment, process, software or technology other than that necessary for use of the Product or Part for the particular application as contemplated by the Capstone Operations Manual and all applicable specifications.

16.3 The above limitations of Capstone’s liability and exclusions of indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, as provided for in Sections 16.1 and 16.2, shall prevail over any conflicting or inconsistent provisions contained in any of the documents comprising this Agreement and any Ordering Request that may be issued by Purchaser pursuant thereto, except to the extent that such provision further limits Capstone’s liability.

16.4 The rights, remedies and obligations of the Parties set forth in this Agreement, together with the attached exhibits specifically referenced in this Agreement, are the exclusive rights, remedies and obligations of the Parties hereunder and are in lieu of any other right, remedy, or obligation available at law or in equity.
