Catch Curve is not responsible for any sales, use, value-added, personal property or other taxes imposed on VEDO’s manufacture, use, possession, offer of sale or sale of VEDO’s Licensed Products. Each party shall be solely responsible for any taxes based on its own net income.

7.1           The term of this License Agreement shall be from the Effective Date until the expiration of the last to expire of the Licensed Patents.

7.2           Catch Curve may terminate this License Agreement after written notice to VEDO that VEDO has materially breached any of the terms and conditions of this License Agreement, and VEDO fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice.

7.3           This License Agreement may be, without opportunity for cure, immediately and automatically terminated at Catch Curve’s option if full payment of the License Fee has not been made to Catch Curve within thirty (30) days after the due date set forth in Paragraph 4.

7.4           In the event of termination of this License Agreement, VEDO shall not be entitled to a refund of any payments made to Catch Curve.

8.2           Disclaimer. ALL WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, IF ANY, ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR USE OR OF MERCHANTABILITY) OR ASSERTED TO ARISE BY IMPLICATION UNDER ANY STATUTE, RULE OR REGULATION OF ANY JURISDICTION.

9.1           Transfer.  Catch Curve may freely assign and transfer any or all of its rights and obligations under this License Agreement and any or all of its rights and obligations in one or more of the Licensed Patents without VEDO’s approval. The license, rights and obligations of VEDO arising under this License Agreement are personal to VEDO. VEDO may not assign or transfer (collectively, “Transfer”) any of its license, rights or obligations granted under this License Agreement, except as set forth below in this Paragraph 9.1. Any attempted Transfer not specifically permitted by this Paragraph 9.1, whether by operation of law or otherwise, shall be void. VEDO may Transfer, without the consent of Catch Curve, not less than all of VEDO’s license, rights and obligations arising under this License Agreement to the third party purchaser of VEDO, which purchaser acquires all or substantially all of the assets of VEDO or any wholly-owned subsidiary of VEDO that produces VEDO Licensed Products or all of the business of VEDO or any such wholly-owned subsidiary which is covered by the license granted herein or is the party into which VEDO merges (“Third Party Successor”). The license and rights that may be Transferred to said Third Party Successor shall only cover and apply to VEDO’s Licensed Products as provided by VEDO or its wholly-owned subsidiaries and, in any event, shall not cover and apply to the products, services, technology, assets or business operations traceable to the Third Party Successor or its subsidiaries or affiliates. Once such a permitted Transfer has occurred, the Third Party Successor shall be bound by all terms, conditions, restrictions and definitions set forth in this License Agreement. For purposes of this Paragraph 9, the term “Transfer” specifically (a) excludes any Change of Control and any transaction described in Paragraph 9.3 or Paragraph 9.4 below; and (b) includes Transfers through mergers in which VEDO is not the surviving entity.

9.2           Change in Control. In the event there is a Change in Control, the license and rights granted to VEDO under this License Agreement shall only cover and apply to VEDO’s Licensed Products as provided by VEDO or its wholly-owned subsidiaries and, in any event, shall not cover or apply to the products, services, technology, assets or business operations traceable to the new owner or controlling company or the subsidiaries or affiliates thereof, unless Catch Curve, in its sole discretion, elects otherwise in writing. Any Transfer to VEDO by the new owner or controlling company or the subsidiaries or affiliates thereof of products, services, technology, assets or business operations shall be treated as an acquisition by VEDO under Paragraph 9.4 below. After any Change of Control, VEDO shall continue to be subject to all terms, conditions, restrictions and definitions set forth in this License Agreement. Nothing in this Paragraph 9.2 shall limit, expand or otherwise modify the terms and conditions of Paragraph 9.1 above.

9.3           Spin-offs. In the event a VEDO business unit, division or operation (or its products, services, technology or assets), which is rightfully operating under the license and rights granted in this License Agreement, is sold, transferred or assigned to or merged with a party other than the Third Party Successor, said business unit, division and operation and its products, services, technology and assets shall no longer be covered by said license and rights.

9.4           Acquisitions By VEDO. In the event VEDO acquires, or remains as the surviving entity in a merger with, another company or business, or acquires products, services, technology, assets or business operations of said company or business, then the license and rights granted to VEDO under this License Agreement shall not apply to or cover any of said other company or business, or the products, services, technology, assets or business operations traceable to same.

9.5           Notice of Change Event. VEDO shall give notice to Catch Curve of any Change Event within at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any Change Event.

9.6           Future Negotiations. Upon the request of VEDO, Catch Curve will negotiate in good faith with VEDO, the Third Party Successor or the third parties described in Paragraph 9.3 or Paragraph 9.4 above, regarding the terms and conditions of a patent license agreement to cover products, services, technology, assets or business operations, excluded from coverage under Paragraph 9 of this License Agreement.

10.1         Choice of Law. This License Agreement will be governed by, and construed and interpreted according to, the substantive laws of the State of Georgia.

10.2         Choice of Forum and Attorneys’ Fees. Any claim or action arising in any way out of this License Agreement or the Licensed Patents must be brought in the United States District Court, Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division or, if subject matter jurisdiction cannot be obtained in that court, in any court of competent jurisdiction sitting in Fulton County, Georgia. Catch Curve and VEDO hereby submit to the jurisdiction and venue of said courts for these purposes and waive all defenses relating to said jurisdiction and venue. In the event of any litigation or claim relating to this License Agreement or the Licensed Patents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

10.3         Entire Agreement. This License Agreement is the final and entire agreement between the parties relating to their subject matter and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous discussions, statements, representations, warranties, correspondence, conditions, negotiations, understandings, promises and agreements, oral and written, with respect to such subject matter.

All of the parties represent that they are represented by legal counsel and have been fully advised as to the meaning and consequence of all of the terms and provisions of this License Agreement.

10.5         Waiver; Modifications. No provision of this License Agreement shall be waived unless in writing signed by the party effecting such waiver. No waiver of the breach of any of the terms or provisions of this License Agreement shall be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of this License Agreement or any other provisions of it. No waiver of any default, express or implied, made by any party hereto shall be binding upon the party making such waiver in the event of a subsequent default. This License Agreement may only be modified or amended by a written agreement executed by each of the parties.
