Visix and Client are each individually known as a “Party” and collectively known as the “Parties.” Visix has expertise in the development, customization, manufacture, and distribution of computer software and related products and services. Client desires to obtain the right to use one or more such products and/or services under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 1.0 SCOPE 1.1 Introduction. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which Client will purchase, and Visix will provide, products and/or services in accordance with the attached Exhibits (each an “Exhibit”). The terms of this Agreement shall govern all relations between the Parties and shall apply to all Exhibits unless otherwise set forth in writing. This Agreement shall be maintained independently of any other agreement between Visix and Client. 1.2 Exhibits. Visix will provide desired products and/or services to Client as more specifically described in the Exhibit(s). Each Exhibit shall describe the particulars of the products and/or services to which it applies. Each Exhibit is identified in Schedule A attached to this Agreement and incorporated by reference. 1.3 Authorized Resellers. The products and/or services sold to Client may be provided by one or more of Visix’s authorized resellers. Should that occur, Client agrees to pay the reseller and the reseller will then remit payment to Visix. If Visix does not receive full, complete, and timely payments from Client and/or the authorized reseller, in addition to the other remedies set forth herein, Visix shall also have the right to repossess and/or reclaim any applicable products or place a lien on any products without further notice to Client and/or authorized reseller. 2.0 TERM & TERMINATION 2.1 Master Agreement. 2.1.1 The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue so long as Visix is providing services or products pursuant to an Exhibit. 2.1.2 This Agreement shall terminate automatically upon termination of the final Exhibit. Termination of this Agreement will be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Parties under this Agreement or at law and will not affect accrued rights or liabilities of the Parties as of the date of termination. 2.1.3 Upon proper termination or expiration of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement and the Exhibit(s) which are stated to survive or implicitly intended to survive shall so survive. All amounts owed to Visix shall immediately become due and payable. 2.2 Exhibits. 2.2.1 The term defined in each Exhibit shall be the term of that Exhibit only. 2.2.2 Notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, either Party may terminate an Exhibit upon: (a)the material breach of the other Party if such breach remains uncured for thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice to the breaching Party, sent pursuant to Section 8.3 herein, and specifying the breach in reasonable detail and demanding its cure;          Master Services Agreement Page 2 of 12 (b)written notice to the other Party, if such other Party: (i) ceases to conduct business in the normal course, (ii) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iii) is liquidated or otherwise dissolved, (iv) becomes insolvent, is adjudicated bankrupt, or a receiver, trustee, or custodian is appointed for it, or (v) attempts to assign any portion of this Agreement or any Exhibit(s) in any manner not expressly permitted thereunder; (c)the occurrence of a force majeure event that is not cured within the time provided in Section 8.8 of this Agreement; or (d)the written consent by the other Party to such termination. 2.2.3 Upon the termination or expiration of an Exhibit, (a) Client will immediately cease holding itself out as having a commercial relationship with Visix in relation to the products and/or services covered under such Exhibit; (b) Client shall immediately cease use of Visix’s trademarks, service marks, trade names, service names, logos, symbols, and other product or service designations pertaining to such Exhibit; (c) each Party shall immediately comply with the requirements set forth in Section 7.7; (d) Client shall pay all amounts properly due and payable to Visix under such Exhibit up until and through the effective date of such termination or expiration; (e) In the event of a termination under Section 2.2.2(b), Visix reserves the right to terminate any and all agreements between Visix and Client and all licenses granted by Visix under this Agreement or otherwise; and (f) Visix shall not have any further liability or obligation to Client pursuant to such Exhibit, except as may be otherwise expressly agreed to in writing and signed by the Parties. 3.0 PAYMENT, DELIVERY, & RETURNS 3.1 Fees & Costs. Conditioned upon the prior acceptance by both Parties of this Agreement and in consideration of the products and/or services described in the Exhibit(s), Client shall pay Visix the fees and costs set forth and agreed upon by the Parties in such Exhibit(s). In addition to such fees and costs, unless Client provides Visix with a valid and correct tax exemption certificate applicable to Client’s purchase, Client agrees to pay any sales, use, excise, value added, customs fees, and/or other taxes levied upon either Party by any government taxing authority as applicable to the Exhibit, except for Visix’s employment taxes or taxes based on Visix’s income. Sales and use taxes as they occur will be added to invoices. Visix is not responsible for any typographical, pricing, or other error and reserves the right to cancel any purchase resulting from such error. [remainder of page intentionally left blank]          Master Services Agreement Page 3 of 12 3.2 Payment.Payment terms are within Visix’s sole discretion. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, payment must be made at the time of purchase. AMOUNTS DUE SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY WITHHOLDING, ABATEMENT, REDUCTION, SETOFF, OR RECOUPMENT FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER. Payment may be made by credit card, wire transfer, or other prearranged payment method. Visix may invoice and/or ship parts of a purchase separately. Client’s purchase is subject to cancellation in whole or in part by Visix at Visix’s sole discretion. If Client breaches the provisions of this Agreement or any Exhibit, Visix may charge Client’s account or credit card the full list price for Client’s purchase (in lieu of a discounted or special price). In the event a payment due is not completely paid when due, the unpaid amount shall bear interest at the prime rate specified in the Wall Street Journal as of the due date or, if different, the highest rate allowed by law. In the event of a disputed amount due, Client shall pay the undisputed amount within the time period provided and Visix reserves the right to collect interest with respect to the disputed portion. Client hereby grants Visix, and Visix hereby retains, a purchase money security interest and lien on any and all of Client’s rights, title, and interest in products purchased under this Agreement, wherever located, and all replacements or proceeds of such products, until the amount due for such products is paid in full, including any late charges and costs of collection. Client consents to Visix’s use of this Agreement, as well as invoices, as financing statements for protecting this security interest, and appoints Visix as Client’s agent for service of process only for the purpose of protecting this security interest. 3.3 Shipment of Products; Duty to Notify if Product is Missing, Incorrect, or Damaged. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, shipping and handling charges are Client’s responsibility in addition to fees, costs, and taxes. Shipping dates provided by Visix are estimates only. Loss or damage that occurs during shipping by a carrier selected by Client is Client’s responsibility. Loss or damage that occurs during shipping by a carrier selected by Visix is Visix’s responsibility. Client must notify Visix in writing within fourteen (14) days of an applicable invoice or receipt of the product, whichever is later, if Client believes any portion of Client’s purchase to be missing, incorrect, or damaged. The Parties agree that Visix may revise and discontinue products at any time without notice to Client and this may affect information saved in an online “cart.” At any time a delivered product shall have the functionality and performance of the product ordered, but the Parties agree that changes between what is delivered and what is described in a specification sheet or catalog are possible. 3.4 Product Returns and Exchanges.New and refurbished products purchased directly from Visix may be returned or exchanged in accordance with Visix’s return or exchange policy available at www.visix.com in effect on the date of the return or exchange. Visix’s return or exchange policies may differ depending on the type of product Client orders (e.g., refurbished products, peripheral purchases, non-Visix branded products, which may include non-Visix branded software, etc.). Visix reserves the right to change any of its return or exchange policies at any time and in its sole discretion. Client must contact Visix directly before attempting to return or exchange a product and obtain a return material authorization (“RMA”) number to include with the return or exchange. Any product to be returned or exchanged must be provided to Visix in its original or equivalent packaging. Client is responsible for any risk of loss and any shipping and handling charges associated with returning or exchanging a product. Additional fees may apply. If Client fails to follow return or exchange instructions and policies provided by Visix, Visix is not responsible whatsoever for any product that is lost, damaged, modified, or otherwise processed for disposal or resale. If Client seeks to return parts or components of a product, such partial return may be accepted by Visix at Visix’s sole discretion. Credit for partial returns shall be at Visix’s sole discretion and may be less than invoice or individual component prices, especially considering sales made under bundled or promotional pricing.

THE PARTIES DISCLAIM ALL OTHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY AND RESULTS OF USE, MERCHANTABILITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE. 7.0 CONFIDENTIALITY 7.1 Definition. “Confidential Information” means all information relating to this Agreement or any Exhibit(s) (referred to herein as the “Agreements”), other than the existence of the Agreements, or received by a Party (the “Receiving Party”) from the other Party or its partners, contractors, agents, or customers (the “Disclosing Party”) in the course of performing under the Agreements, which is or should by reason of its nature, source, use, or other sensitivity, reasonably be understood to be confidential or proprietary to the Disclosing Party (including confidential information disclosed by the Disclosing Party which relates to or is owned by its licensors, suppliers, partners, contractors, customers, and agents), in whatever form (whether tangible, intangible, electronic, oral, or otherwise), including the terms of the Agreements, technical processes and formulae, source codes, object codes, Visix’s digital signage software and related documentation, computer and operational systems, product designs, sales, costs and other unpublished financial information, pricing information, customer lists and information, customer account information, product and business plans, projections, and marketing strategies and data. 7.2 Acknowledgment; Ownership. The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that any and all Confidential Information received by it under the Agreements is of a confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret nature to the Disclosing Party (or its licensors, suppliers, partners, contractors, customers, and agents) and that the Disclosing Party (or its licensors, suppliers, partners, contractors, customers, and agents) owns such Confidential Information, including the intellectual property rights therein. [remainder of page intentionally left blank]          Master Services Agreement Page 8 of 12 7.3 Confidentiality Obligations.The Confidential Information may be used by the Receiving Party solely to assist the Receiving Party in providing or using the products and/or services under the Agreements and shall not be used for any other purpose. The Receiving Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information but no less than those efforts used to protect its own Confidential Information. The Receiving Party may disclose the Confidential Information, or portions thereof, only to its Representatives who need to know such information for purposes of performing or using the products and/or services (it being understood that the Receiving Party shall inform its Representatives of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, shall cause its Representatives to observe the terms of the Agreements, and shall be liable for any breach by any of its Representatives). The term “Representatives” as used in this Section 7.0 shall mean a Party’s directors, officers, employees, partners, agents or controlling persons, and professional advisors, including attorneys and accountants. Each and every Representative, prior to receiving Confidential Information, shall have signed a non-disclosure agreement sufficient to protect the Confidential Information with its employer or with the entity or person receiving the Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will promptly inform the Disclosing Party of any actual or suspected breach of this Section 7.0 by it or its Representatives upon becoming aware of such actual or suspected breach. 7.4 Exceptions. The confidentiality provisions of this Section 7.0 will not apply to any information that the Receiving Party can show: (i) is or subsequently becomes publicly available without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party by the Receiving Party; (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to the Disclosing Party’s disclosure of such information to the Receiving Party; (iii) became known to the Receiving Party from a source other than the Disclosing Party, and without breach of an obligation of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party; (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (v) is used by the Receiving Party in order to enforce any of its rights, claims, or defenses under, or as otherwise contemplated in, the Agreements, provided no such use shall occur unless the Receiving Party has in writing: (a) identified the Confidential Information that will be disclosed and why it is necessary for the Confidential Information to be disclosed and (b) provided the Disclosing Party sufficient notice to seek appropriate protection for the Confidential Information, which shall be no less than five (5) calendar days. 7.5 Legally Required Disclosures.Nothing in the Agreements will be deemed to prevent the Receiving Party from disclosing any Confidential Information received hereunder pursuant to applicable law, provided that such disclosure will be limited to the minimum acceptable level of disclosure and that such Receiving Party will immediately notify the Disclosing Party of the imminent disclosure and minimize or prevent such disclosure to the maximum extent allowed under law. The Receiving Party shall promptly advise the Disclosing Party of any such pending disclosure. 7.6 Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. Immediately upon the earlier of the Disclosing Party’s request or the termination or expiration of this Agreement or an Exhibit for any reason, the Receiving Party will: (i) stop using the Confidential Information of the other Party then in its possession not under a valid license; (ii) erase or destroy all such Confidential Information residing in any computer memory or data storage apparatus (and furnish a certificate, executed by an officer of the Receiving Party, certifying such erasure and/or destruction); and (iii) destroy or make available to the Disclosing Party (in the Disclosing Party’s discretion) all such Confidential Information (including all notes and summaries thereof) in tangible form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties and their counsel may retain such Confidential Information as confidential consistent with the Party’s and/or counsel’s document retention policies and legal and regulatory requirements. 7.7 Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party acknowledges that its breach of this Section 7.0 may cause the Disclosing Party (or its licensors) irreparable injury for which monetary damages may not make the Disclosing Party (or its licensors) whole. Accordingly, in addition to all other available remedies and notwithstanding Section 8.6 below,the Disclosing Party (or its licensors) may be entitled to equitable or injunctive relief in the event of an actual, attempted, or threatened breach of any obligation of the Receiving Party (including its contractors and agents) under this Section 7.0.          Master Services Agreement Page 9 of 12 7.8 Statistical Data.Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Visix from developing and publishing statistical data on its business, provided that all disclosed statistical data shall be done in such a manner that Client’s Confidential Information is not disclosed. 8.0 GENERAL PROVISIONS 8.1 Relationship of Parties. The only relationship between Visix and Client created by this Agreement is the contractual relationship established by this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, association, or employment relationship between Visix and Client, it being understood that the Parties’ only relationship will be that of an independent contractor relationship. Visix’s authority shall be limited to that which is expressly stated in this Agreement. Neither Party shall have any authority, nor shall it represent itself as having any authority, to represent the other Party except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement. 8.2 Assignment. Neither Party may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement, and any attempt at such assignment will be void, unless with the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. This Agreement will be binding upon the Parties’ respective successors and permitted assigns. For purposes of this Agreement, “assignment” shall include a merger, acquisition, or other consolidation by, with, or of Client, including any new or surviving entity that results from such merger, acquisition, or other consolidation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a parent or subsidiary.

If any dispute or difference has not been resolved pursuant to the foregoing sentence within thirty calendar (30) days immediately following notice from one Party to another of its desire to have the same resolved, then the Parties agree to resolve the dispute by final and binding arbitration. For U.S. based Clients, the arbitration shall proceed under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

The arbitrators shall have the authority to permit limited discovery, including depositions, prior to the arbitration hearing, and such discovery shall be conducted consistent with the United States Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The arbitrators shall render their award in writing and will include the findings of fact and conclusion of law upon which their award is based. The arbitrators shall have no power or authority to award punitive or exemplary damages. The arbitrators may, in their discretion, award the cost of the arbitration, including reasonable attorney fees, to the prevailing Party. Any award may be confirmed in any court having jurisdiction.
