Prior to disposing of any media reflecting or on which is stored or placed any Software, you will ensure any Software contained on the media has been securely erased or otherwise destroyed. You recognize and agree a remedy at law for damages will not be adequate to fully compensate JCI for the breach of Sections 1, 2, or 10. Therefore, JCI will be entitled to temporary injunctive relief against you without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting bond or other security. Injunctive relief will in no way limit any other remedies JCI may have as a result of breach by You of the foregoing Sections or any other provision of this Agreement.

HARDWARE FLEXIBILITY OPTION. The following additional provisions shall apply if, and only so long as, each of the following conditions are met (the “Flex Prerequisites”): (i) the Software licensed under this EULA is American Dynamics victor, version 5.7 or later (the “victor Software”) and/or Software House C•Cure 9000 with v2.60 SP1 CU05, v2.7 SP1 or later (the “C•Cure Software”), depending on which of these you have selected for your installation; (ii) each system license serial number to be used by you in connection with the Hardware Flexibility Option (the “Authorized Flex Hardware”) is, and at all times hereunder remains subject to, an active and valid Software Support Agreement with JCI that expressly includes the Hardware Flexibility Option (the “SSA”); and (iii) you at all times remain in compliance with the terms of this EULA, including without limitation, this Section 13. In the event that any of the foregoing conditions cease to be satisfied, then your rights under this Section 13 shall immediately terminate without any further action from JCI.

a. Definition of Hardware Flexibility Option. JCI has developed a flexible Software license file “(Flex Software”) which permits the victor Software and C•Cure Software to run on a cloud-based server architecture or in a virtual environment without locking to victor Software’s or C•Cure Software’s physical server attribute license management protections. This Flex Software is made available to duly authorized end users for the limited purpose of hosting an instance of the victor Software or C•Cure Software with a third party cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service Provider (“IaaS Provider”) for use by such end user solely with the Authorized Flex Hardware (such arrangement being referred to as the “Hardware Flexibility Option”). Except for Section 2 of this EULA (which is superseded by Section 13(b) below solely for purposes of the Hardware Flexibility Option), the Hardware Flexibility Option will otherwise be included in the definition of the Software in this EULA.

b. License Rights and Restrictions. If you elect the Hardware Flexibility Option, then Subject to your continuing satisfaction of the Flex Prerequisites, JCI hereby grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, world-wide, internal use only, license during the term of the SSA (as defined below) to use the Flex Software solely for the purpose of enabling the Hardware Flexibility Option. You acknowledge that JCI is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Flex Software. You may use the Flex Software solely for your internal use of the victor Software and/or C•Cure Software (depending on which of these you have selected for your installation) in the implementation and use of the Hardware Flexibility Option, and subject to the confidentiality obligations of this EULA. You will not use the Flex Software for any other purpose and will not provide or disclose the Flex Software to any third party. The license granted under this Section 13(b) is subject to, and contingent upon, you purchasing and maintaining an active and valid SSA for each system license serial number, inclusive of the Hardware Flexibility Option. You further acknowledge and agree that the Hardware Flexibility Option expires automatically upon the expiration date of the SSA and will need to be manually renewed and reinstalled by contacting JCI, in writing, for each such renewal.

c. Indemnity. You shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each JCI, its affiliates and each of their respective employees, directors, officers, and successors and permitted assigns, from and against any and all claims, costs, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments and expenses (including reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) (collectively “Expenses”) relating to third party claims or allegations arising from: (i) your use of the Hardware Flexibility Option; and (ii) your breach or violation of any terms or conditions of this EULA.
