If a Safe Product Issue presents a substantial risk of personal injury, death or damage external to the HP Branded Product, unless affected units are recalled, HP shall have the right to require a recall of affected units in addition to the right to compel the shipment hold. HP’s “right to require” under the preceding sentences shall be exercised in HP’s reasonable judgment based on substantial evidence as determined by HP. Additionally, HP shall have the right to require a recall of affected units as the result of the order of a government agency, a court decision or the settlement of a class action lawsuit. Any recall required by HP shall be reasonable in scope. Licensee will maintain an effective means to quarantine, remove, and recall from the entire supply chain (starting from the factory and continuing through resellers) any shipment, production lot, stock keeping unit (SKU) or any other HP Branded Product found to be defective or non-compliant in any material respects with the requirements of this Agreement. HP reserves the right to initiate the processes described in this Section 8.9 in the event Licensee fails to act in a timely manner regardless of whether the triggering issue is discovered as the result of routine quality monitoring, customer complaints or other means. All costs and expenses associated with any shipment hold or recall under this Section 8.9 caused by conduct of Licensee in violation of this Agreement shall be borne solely by Licensee, and Licensee shall reimburse HP for any and all costs and expenses incurred as a result of same. Licensee shall not be responsible for any costs or expenses associated with any shipment hold or recall that are not caused by conduct of the Licensee in violation of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt LICENSEE shall be responsible for costs and expenses iincluding, but not limited to, those resulting from actions required due to a Safe Product Issue, Legal Product Issue, and/or Critical Quality Issue.

HP’s decision in that regard is at HP’s sole discretion, is final, and is without recourse by LICENSEE.

If HP rejects any of items (i) – (iii) above, HP will provide LICENSEE with the detailed reasons for its rejection and indicate how LICENSEE may modify the materials submitted so as to be approved by HP.

THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS LIMITATION WAS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT BY BOTH PARTIES IN AGREEING UPON THE CONSIDERATION AND OTHER TERMS SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

 

18	Insurance.

 

During the Term, Licensee will maintain General Liability Insurance (Public or Civil Liability) and other insurance coverages that equal or exceed the coverages and policy terms set forth in Exhibit 12.

19	Indemnification.

 

	19.1	Responsibilities of Licensee. Licensee shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify or settle any third party Claim made or any suit or proceeding brought against HP, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the “Indemnified HP Parties”) insofar as such Claim arises from or relates to any of the following: (i) any death, injury or alleged injury to any person, or damage or alleged damage to any property alleged to have resulted, in whole or in part, from any HP Branded Product; (ii) the use, marketing, advertising or sale of the HP Branded Products by Licensee, its Suppliers or their Affiliates, its Approved Distribution Partners or their Affiliates, its other distributors and resellers, or any of their customers, or any end user; (iii) intellectual property, trademark, patent or copyright infringement, or similar Claims, except trademark infringement Claims arising solely from LICENSEE’s use of the HP Trademarks in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In connection with any Claim or preceding described above, Licensee will also pay all damages and costs finally awarded against HP or agreed to by Licensee and HP in a settlement. In the event of any Claim against the HP Indemnified Parties, the applicable HP Indemnified Parties shall: (a) promptly provide written notice thereof to Licensee (but any failure or delay in providing such notice shall not limit the responsibilities of Licensee except to the extent that such failure or delay results in cost or prejudice to Licensee); (b) inform Licensee of any subsequent written communications related to the Claim; and (c) fully cooperate with Licensee in Licensee’s defense of the Claim, at Licensee’s cost and expense.

HP shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify or settle any third party Claim made or any suit or proceeding brought against LICENSEE, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, and successors and assigns (the “Indemnified LICENSEE Parties”) insofar as such Claim arises from or relates to any allegation that the HP Trademarks, as used in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, infringe a trademark of a third party. In the event of any Claim against the Indemnified LICENSEE Parties, the applicable Indemnified LICENSEE Parties shall: (a) promptly provide written notice thereof to HP (but any failure or delay in providing such notice shall not limit the responsibilities of HP except to the extent that such failure or delay results in cost or prejudice to HP); (b) inform HP of any subsequent written communications related to the Claim, and (c) fully cooperate with HP in HP’s defense of the Claim at HP’s cost and expense. HP will pay all damages and costs finally awarded against LICENSEE or agreed to by HP and LICENSEE in a settlement. HP will have no liability for, nor obligation to defend against, any claims that result solely from LICENSEE’s use of the HP Trademarks not in accordance with the terms in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to make LICENSEE the agent of HP for the purpose of accepting service of legal process or binding HP as principal to any representation, commitment, or agreement made by LICENSEE in connection with the manufacture, sale, or distribution of any HP Branded Product.

	20.5	Non-Confidential Information; Waivers. Non-Confidential Information is not subject to confidentiality or trade secret obligations, and may be published, disclosed or used for any purpose, except that no license under any patent, trademark, mask work or copyright is granted.

	22.2	Relationship of Parties. HP and LICENSEE are independent contractors and this Agreement shall not establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency between or among any of them. Neither HP nor the Licensee shall have the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other’s behalf without the other’s prior written consent.
	22.3	Notices.

22.4

Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be solely and exclusively governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Except as provided in Section 22.5, any suit, action or proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement must be brought solely and exclusively in the state or federal courts, as appropriate, in Los Angeles County, California, and each Party irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is specifically excluded from application to this Agreement. Licensee stipulates that if it initiates action in the Superior Court of California for Los Angeles County, it will elect the Van Nuys branch if eligible to do so.

 

_{Trademark License Agreement by and between HP and Life Clips}

_{This document is CONFIDENTIAL to all Parties}

 

 

	22.5	Injunctive Relief. It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any material breach of this Agreement by either Party may cause irreparable damage for which recovery of money damages would be inadequate, and that the non-breaching Party shall therefore be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, in a court of competent jurisdiction, to protect such Party’s rights under this Agreement in addition to any and all remedies available at law. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that distribution of products bearing the HP Trademarks outside the Territory, distribution of HP Branded Products that do not meet the Quality Standards, or material breach by either Party of its obligations under Section 20 would cause irreparable harm for purposes of this paragraph, entitling HP or Licensee as the case may be to injunctive relief.
	22.6	Export Control Compliance. The laws and regulations of the United States, including without limitation the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), restrict the export and re-export of certain hardware, software, other commodities, technology and technical data. Licensee agrees that it will not export or re-export HP Branded Products or any technical data thereto, in any form in violation of such laws and regulations without the appropriate United States and foreign government export or import licenses or other official authorization.
	22.7	Waiver. The failure of either Party to require performance by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the full right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.
	22.8	Assignment. In addition to the provisions of Section 3.3, and subject to Section 7, neither this Agreement, nor any rights, obligations, nor other interests of a Party may be assigned by a Party, in whole or in part, by operation or law or otherwise without the prior written consent of HP and LICENSEE, and any purported assignment of same shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, HP may, without such consent and at HP’s sole discretion, assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of HP, in whole or in part, or otherwise transfer or subcontract any or all of HP’s duties, obligations or rights herein to an Affiliate of HP.
	22.9	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law or is so held by applicable court decision, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render this Agreement unenforceable or invalid as a whole, and such provision shall be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable or invalid provision within the limits of applicable law or applicable court decisions.
	22.10	Force Majeure. No Party shall be liable for any failure to fulfill its obligations hereunder due to acts or omissions of government or military authority, acts of God, prolonged electric or other power outages, shortages of materials beyond the control of the affected Party, transportation delays, terrorism, earthquakes, fires, floods, riots, or wars. If a force majeure event lasts longer than 60 days, the non-affected Party may terminate this Agreement for cause as a material breach under the provisions of Section 15.1.2.

	22.12	Survival. The following Sections will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement in perpetuity or for the period contemplated by the provisions of a Section below: Sections 1, 3. 4, 5, 6, 7, 10.9, 10.10, 10.11, 10.13, 10.14 , 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 22 , and Exhibits 3, 5, 8, 12, 13 and 14.
	22.13	Entire Agreement and Amendment. This Agreement (together with all Exhibits) completely and exclusively states the agreement of the Parties regarding the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes, and its terms govern, all prior or contemporaneous understandings, term sheets, memoranda of understanding, agreements, representations, summaries, proposals, or other communications between or among the Parties, whether oral or written, regarding such subject matter. With the exception of Exhibit 14, in the event of a conflict between the terms in the body of this Agreement and the terms in one or more of the Exhibits attached hereto, the terms in the body of this Agreement shall control. The terms of Exhibit 14 shall control any conflicts between that Exhibit and this Agreement. This Agreement (including any Exhibits hereto) may be modified or amended only by a written amendment signed by authorized representatives of both parties specifically identifying the Sections or Exhibits hereof to be modified or amended, except that amended versions of Exhibits 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16 and 17 may be substituted as part of this Agreement from time to time if signed by the Program Managers of each of HP and LICENSEE, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 18.
	22.14	Usage/Interpretation. Whenever the context may so require, any pronoun herein includes the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. Words and definitions in the singular or the plural include the plural or the singular. The word “or” includes “and/or” unless the context indicates otherwise. All references herein to Sections and Exhibits refer to Sections and Exhibits of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed in all instances to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The words “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, any agreement, statute, or law defined or referred to herein means such agreement, statute or law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including by succession of comparable successor agreements or statutes.
	22.15	Counterparts and Facsimile/Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one single agreement among the Parties. A facsimile/electronic transmission of the executed signature page of this Agreement shall constitute a valid signature and due and proper execution of this Agreement.

Exhibit 1

 

HP Branded Products and Approved Suppliers

 

HP Branded Products

 

HP branding may only be displayed on products of the following types and intended purposes (collectively, “Field of Use”):

 

“Hardware” means digital still cameras that record and store photographic images and video in digital form; portable camcorders, action cameras, 360 degrees action cameras and front/rear view cameras for use in cars. Direct wireless connection to a smartphone or tablet in a peer to peer environment is permitted for these devices.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, HP Branded Products does not include cameras or services associated with monitoring the interior or exterior of a home or people within the home, including but not limited to products that connect to a wireless access point. Therefore, products such as doorbell cameras, pet cameras, baby cameras, outdoor security cameras and their associated sensors are NOT included in this license.

 

“Accessories” means accessory products that are designed to be used with or ancillary to the “Hardware”. “Accessories” shall be advertised, promoted and/or marketed as being for use with the Hardware. The Mobeego products owned by Licensee shall not be defined as Accessories or accessory products.

 

“Services” means content management related to the Hardware.

 

Approved Suppliers

 

Within 60 days of the Effective Date of this Agreement LICENSEE will provide to the HP Program Manager an updated list of the names and addresses of LICENSEE Suppliers which are authorized to provide major components to be used in HP Branded Products. No HP Branded Product will ship until this list is agreed upon by the Parties as memorialized by a written communication by both Parties (subject to Section 22.3).

During the warranty period, if a defective HP Product covered by this Limited Warranty is returned to the designated HP Service Center, it will be repaired or replaced or, at the option of the Service Center, its purchase price will be refunded. No repair, replacement or refund will be provided unless the defective HP Product is returned to the Service Center at your expense; for some HP Products, no return will be accepted unless the Service Center first provides you with a Return Material Authorization (RMA). If your HP Product has recurring failures, at the option of the Service Center, either you will be furnished with a different product that is equivalent in performance or you will receive a refund of your purchase price.

Where permitted by local law, HP Products and any replacement products or parts may contain new materials or used materials equivalent to new in performance and reliability. Replacement products or parts will have functionality at least equal to that of the product or part being replaced. Replacement products and parts are warranted to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for 90 days, or for the remainder of the warranty period for the HP Product which they are replacing or in which they are installed, whichever is longer.

 

This Limited Warranty does not include technical assistance. This Limited Warranty does not cover cosmetic damage, loss or damage in transit, or damage resulting from (a) accident, misuse, abuse or other external causes; (b) product elements not supplied by HP; (c) improper site preparation or maintenance; or (d) modification or service by anyone other than HP, an HP Service Center or another HP-authorized service provider.
