-

ThoughtSpot Cloud access or Consulting Services as
identified in an Order Form pursuant to this
Agreement. Upon execution by the parties, each Order
Form is non-cancellable and, except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, non-refundable. Prices
stated in each Order Form are final. Each
Subscription Term is a non-divisible, continuous
commitment, regardless of the invoice schedule, and
pricing is based on a purchase of the entire
Subscription Term.
-
2.2. Invoices and Payment. Customer
will pay in full via ThoughtSpot's designated
third-party payment processor prior to receiving
access to ThoughtSpot Cloud. ThoughtSpot will
provide access credentials upon confirmation of
payment. All payments are processed subject to the
terms of the applicable payment processor. Customer
acknowledges that payment is processed by a
third-party payment processor and not by
ThoughtSpot. Customer's use of the payment processor
is subject to the processor's own terms of service
and privacy policy. ThoughtSpot does not collect,
store, or process Customer's payment card
information. ThoughtSpot is not responsible for any
errors, failures, or security incidents arising from
the payment processor's services. Customer may not
reduce any amount payable to ThoughtSpot under this
Agreement due to any counterclaim, set-off,
adjustment, or other claim Customer might have
against ThoughtSpot, any other party, or otherwise.
If Customer has exceeded its permitted use rights,
ThoughtSpot will notify Customer and, within 30 days
after the date of such notice, Customer will either:
(a) reduce its use to match
permissions; or (b) purchase
subscription rights commensurate with its actual
use.

duties, levies, imposts, fines, or similar
governmental assessments of any nature, including,
for example, sales, use, GST, withholding,
value-added, or similar taxes, imposed by any
jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer will pay all Taxes (and interest and
penalties applicable to Taxes, if any) associated
with the transactions, access, and use, contemplated
by this Agreement except Taxes based on
ThoughtSpot’s net income, property, or employees. If
ThoughtSpot has the legal obligation to pay or
collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible
under this Section 2.3, ThoughtSpot will invoice
Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless
Customer provides ThoughtSpot with a valid tax
exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate
taxing authority prior to execution of the
applicable Order Form. Taxes will not be deducted
from payments to ThoughtSpot, except as required by
Law, in which case Customer will increase the amount
payable as necessary so that, after making all
required deductions and withholdings, ThoughtSpot
receives and retains (free from any liability for
Taxes) an amount equal to the amount it would have
received had no such deductions or withholdings been
made. Upon ThoughtSpot’s request, Customer will
provide to ThoughtSpot its proof of withholding tax
remittance to the respective tax authority.

thirty (30) days prior to the end of the
then-current Subscription Term. Any such renewal

Subscription Term and to the extent specified
(including regarding limits on rows, credits,
groups, integration or embedding, external use, or
other limits) in the applicable Order Form, solely
for Customer’s own business purposes and in
accordance with the Documentation. Customer will
retain exclusive access to administrative user
interfaces and privileges of production instances as
specified in the Documentation. Customer will be
wholly liable for non-compliance with this Agreement
by a party permitted by Customer to access

Order Form as non-production may be used solely for
use case development, testing, user training, and
similar non-production purposes.

addition to the rights above, Customer may use
ThoughtSpot Cloud to take a combined, embedded, or
integrated solution (“Embedded Solution”) to market, or
otherwise offer ThoughtSpot Cloud for the benefit of
third parties, solely as permitted under this
Agreement. The term Authorized Users includes any
individual provided access to the Embedded Solution.
Customer’s rights under this Section 3.2 are limited
to no more than fifty (50) external third parties
utilizing the Embedded Solution. Customer shall
maintain a written, accurate, and up-to-date list of
all such current external third parties (the “List”) and shall provide the List
to ThoughtSpot upon request. Customer shall notify
ThoughtSpot within ten (10) business days after
Customer exceeds fifty (50) external third parties.
During the Subscription Term, ThoughtSpot shall have
the right, no more than once per calendar year and
upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
to Customer, to audit Customer’s use of ThoughtSpot
Cloud solely to verify compliance with the permitted
number of such external third parties. If Customer
exceeds the permitted number of such external third
parties, Customer shall, within thirty (30) days
after notice from ThoughtSpot, either: (a) reduce
its use to the permitted level; or (b) purchase the
additional subscription rights or other entitlements
required for such excess use.
-
3.3. Support and Security.
ThoughtSpot will provide technical support and
security for ThoughtSpot Cloud applicable to the

permitted in this Agreement; (b)
disassemble, decompile, port, reverse compile,
reverse engineer, translate, or otherwise attempt to
separate any of the components of the ThoughtSpot

code, structure, algorithms, processes, techniques,
technologies, know-how, or ideas embodied by,
underlying, or contained in ThoughtSpot Cloud; (c) sell, license, sublicense, rent,
lease, encumber, lend, distribute, transfer, or

the Order Form; (d) alter, modify,
or create derivative works of ThoughtSpot Cloud
(including any source code) in any way, including
through customization, translation, or localization;
(e) remove or alter any trademark,
logo, copyright, or other proprietary notices,
legends, symbols, or labels in ThoughtSpot Cloud or
Documentation; (f) circumvent or
remove by any means any click-accept or copy
protection, or share or disclose user credentials
other than to the individual to which the credential
was assigned; (g) use ThoughtSpot
Cloud or Documentation to provide Authorized User or
other access to a ThoughtSpot competitor or conduct
competitive research or to develop a product that is
competitive with any ThoughtSpot product offering,
or use ThoughtSpot Cloud or Documentation to assert,
authorize, assist, or encourage a third party to
assert, against ThoughtSpot or any of its
affiliates, customers, vendors, business partners,
or licensors, any patent or other IPR claim
regarding ThoughtSpot products or services; (h) publicly disseminate any
performance or security vulnerability test
(including a penetration test) results or analysis
related to or derived from ThoughtSpot Cloud; or (i) use ThoughtSpot Cloud to create,
use, send, store, or run viruses or other harmful

otherwise violate or disrupt the security, integrity
(including by using ThoughtSpot Cloud to create
software to convert search processing results to a
format not owned by ThoughtSpot), availability, or
operation of ThoughtSpot Cloud or its network.
Before Customer engages in any of the foregoing acts
that it believes it may be entitled to, it will
provide ThoughtSpot with 30 days’ prior notice to
[email protected], and provide reasonably
requested information to allow ThoughtSpot to assess
Customer’s claim. ThoughtSpot may, in its
discretion, provide alternatives that reduce adverse
impacts to ThoughtSpot’s IPR or other rights.
-

terms of this Agreement, Customer grants to
ThoughtSpot a revocable, nonexclusive, worldwide,
royalty-free right to use, reproduce, transmit,
modify, and display Administrative Information
solely to render services to Customer under this
Agreement. Customer represents to ThoughtSpot that
Customer has sufficient rights to grant the license
in the previous sentence and Customer’s use of
ThoughtSpot Cloud is compliant with Customer’s own
policies and the Law. The parties acknowledge that
ThoughtSpot Cloud is intended to be used in
conjunction with a data source; ThoughtSpot does not
provide a source of record or data backup.
4. Warranties.
-
4.1. ThoughtSpot Cloud. ThoughtSpot
warrants that it has the corporate right and
authority to execute and enter into this Agreement,
and further warrants that during the Subscription
Term ThoughtSpot Cloud will, under normal use,
substantially conform to the specifications in the
Documentation. To submit a warranty claim, Customer
must request technical support using ThoughtSpot’s
support portal, and reference this Section 4.1.
ThoughtSpot will use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause ThoughtSpot Cloud to conform to the
warranty above at no charge to Customer, or if
ThoughtSpot determines such remedy to be
impracticable, either party may terminate the
applicable Order Form and Customer will receive a
refund of any unused prepaid ThoughtSpot Cloud fees
covering the remaining Subscription Term following
the effective date of termination. This warranty
will not apply to: (a) use of
ThoughtSpot Cloud other than as described in the
Documentation; (b) modification of
ThoughtSpot Cloud by anyone but ThoughtSpot; or (c) failure caused by a product or
integration not provided or expressly approved by
ThoughtSpot or its agents.
This Section 4.1 sets forth Customer’s exclusive
rights and remedies (and ThoughtSpot’s entire
liability) in relation to the warranty in this
Section 4.1
.
-
4.2. Consulting Services.
ThoughtSpot warrants that it will perform Consulting
Services in a professional manner using reasonable
care and skill in accordance with industry
standards. Customer will notify ThoughtSpot of any
material breach within 30 days after performance of
the non-conforming Consulting Services. On receipt
of such notice, ThoughtSpot will use commercially
reasonable efforts to re-perform the Consulting
Services in substantial conformance with these
warranty requirements, and if ThoughtSpot is unable
to correct the reported non-conformity after two
attempts, either party may terminate the applicable
Order Form for Consulting Services and Customer will
receive a refund of any pre-paid unused fees for the
Consulting Services purchased thereunder.
This Section 4.2 sets forth Customer’s exclusive
rights and remedies (and ThoughtSpot’s entire
liability) in relation to the warranty in this
Section 4.2
.
-
4.3. Disclaimers. EXCEPT FOR THE
LIMITED WARRANTIES UNDER SECTIONS 4.1 (THOUGHTSPOT
CLOUD) AND 4.2 (CONSULTING SERVICES) AND TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER LAW, THOUGHTSPOT (ON
ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ITS SUPPLIERS AND
LICENSORS) AND THOUGHTSPOT AFFILIATES: (A) DO NOT MAKE, AND EXPRESSLY
DISCLAIM, ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
WITH RESPECT TO THOUGHTSPOT CLOUD, SUPPORT AND
CONSULTING SERVICES (EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR
OTHERWISE), INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
(EVEN IF THOUGHTSPOT KNOWS OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN SUCH
PURPOSE), TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B)
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING CLAUSE (A), MAKE NO (AND EXPRESSLY
DISCLAIM) ANY WARRANTY THAT THOUGHTSPOT CLOUD AND
ANY USE OF IT, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ACCURATE,
RELIABLE, COMPATIBLE WITH ANY PARTICULAR
ENVIRONMENT, OR FREE FROM DEFECTS, OR ERRORS (OR
THAT ANY ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED).
5. Proprietary Rights.
-
5.1. Confidentiality. For the term
of this Agreement, and surviving expiration or
termination of this Agreement for up to three (3)
years after disclosure of the Confidential
Information, the party receiving Confidential
Information (“Recipient”) from the
other party (“Discloser”) will use
it solely to perform the rights and obligations
under this Agreement, and not for any other purpose
without the Discloser’s prior written consent. The
Recipient will hold in confidence, and not disclose
to any third party (except as permitted by this
Agreement), any of the Discloser’s Confidential
Information and will use at least the same degree of
care in handling the Discloser’s Confidential
Information as it uses to protect its own
Confidential Information from unauthorized use or
access by third parties, but no less than reasonable
care. The Recipient will notify the Discloser
immediately on becoming aware of any unauthorized
use or release of the Discloser’s Confidential
Information. The Recipient may disclose the
Discloser’s Confidential Information to those of its
Affiliates, directors, advisors, employees, or
contractors (collectively, “Representatives”) who have a need
to know such Confidential Information to perform
under or in relation to this Agreement, but only if
such Representatives are subject to a binding,
written agreement no less protective of the
Discloser than the confidentiality terms of this
Agreement. Nothing under this Agreement or trade
secret Law may be construed to restrict or limit
ThoughtSpot’s right to perform (or assign any
personnel to perform) Consulting Services for any
other party or to use any information incidentally
retained in the unaided memories of its personnel
providing Consulting Services. The Recipient’s
obligations under this Section 5.1 will not apply to
Confidential Information that must be disclosed by
the Recipient to comply with a court order or Law,
but only if the Recipient promptly notifies the
Discloser to enable the Discloser to seek a
protective order or other appropriate remedy, and
takes commercially reasonable and lawful actions to
avoid or minimize the extent of, and to obtain
confidential treatment for, any such disclosure.
-
5.2. Ownership. Customer and its
licensors will retain all right, title, and interest
in and to its IPR in Administrative Information. As
between the parties, ThoughtSpot, ThoughtSpot
Affiliates, and its and their suppliers and
licensors own all right, title, and interest in and
to all IPR in (and in all copies of) ThoughtSpot
Cloud (including any IPR used to develop, improve,
operate, or otherwise provide ThoughtSpot Cloud) and
Documentation, regardless of the form or media in or
on which the original or other copies may
subsequently exist. Except for the limited licenses
expressly granted in this Agreement, ThoughtSpot
reserves all, and does not grant any other, rights
(express, implied, by estoppel, through exhaustion,
or otherwise).
-
5.3. Feedback. ThoughtSpot
encourages Customer to provide suggestions,
proposals, ideas, recommendations, or other input
regarding ThoughtSpot Cloud (including by using
in-app rating features) (collectively, “Feedback”). To the extent that
Customer provides such Feedback to ThoughtSpot,
ThoughtSpot may use it for any purpose without
obligation of any kind.
6. Third-Party Claims.
-
6.1. ThoughtSpot. ThoughtSpot will
defend Customer from and against any claim or demand
made by an unaffiliated third party alleging that
the ThoughtSpot Cloud, when used as authorized in
this Agreement, unmodified by Customer and used in
accordance with the Documentation, infringes IPR
owned by such third party and will indemnify
Customer from and against any damages and costs
awarded against Customer or agreed in settlement by
ThoughtSpot (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
resulting from such claim or demand. If Customer’s
use of the ThoughtSpot Cloud is (or in ThoughtSpot’s
opinion is likely to be) enjoined, if required by
settlement or if ThoughtSpot determines such actions
are reasonably necessary to avoid material
liability, ThoughtSpot may, in its sole discretion:
(a) substitute products of
substantially similar functionality; (b) procure for Customer the right
to continue using the ThoughtSpot Cloud; or if (a) and (b) are not
commercially reasonable, (c)
terminate this Agreement and refund to Customer the
fees paid to ThoughtSpot for the remaining portion
of the Subscription Term. ThoughtSpot will have no
obligation in this Section 6.1 for any claim or
demand to the extent arising from use of ThoughtSpot
Cloud combined or integrated with other products,
processes, information, or materials where the
infringement would not have arisen but for such
combination or integration.
-
6.2. Customer. Customer will defend
ThoughtSpot from and against any claim or demand by
a third party arising from or relating to: (a) breach by Customer of Section
3.5 (Administration); or (b)
third-party use of an Embedded Solution; and will
indemnify ThoughtSpot from and against any damages
and costs awarded against ThoughtSpot or agreed in
settlement by Customer (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) resulting from such claim or
demand.
-
6.3. Process. The parties’
indemnification obligations are expressly
conditioned on the indemnified party: (a) providing prompt notification of
any actual or threatened claim or demand; (b) giving the indemnifying party
sole control of the defense and any related
settlement negotiations; and (c)
providing all necessary cooperation with the defense
at the indemnifying party’s reasonable request and
expense. Failure by the indemnified party to notify
the indemnifying party of a claim under this Section
6 will not relieve the indemnifying party of its
obligations therein; however the indemnifying party
will not be liable for any litigation expenses that
the indemnified party incurred prior to the time
when notice is given or for any damages or costs
resulting from any material prejudice caused by the
delay or failure to provide notice to the
indemnifying party in accordance with this Section
6. The indemnifying party will not stipulate,
acknowledge, or admit fault or liability on the
indemnified party’s behalf, or publicize any
settlement, without the indemnified party’s prior
written consent (which will not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Any
indemnification obligation in this Section 6 will
not apply if the indemnified party settles or makes
any admission with respect to a claim without the
indemnifying party’s prior written consent.
This Section 6 (Third-Party Claims) states the
indemnifying party’s entire liability and the
indemnified party’s exclusive remedy for
third-party claims and third-party actions.
7. Limitations of Liability.
-
7.1. Limitation of Liability. TO
THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY’S TOTAL,
CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON
WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
THEORY, WILL BE LIMITED TO DIRECT DAMAGES INCURRED
IN REASONABLE RELIANCE IN AN AMOUNT NOT EXCEEDING,
FOR ALL CLAIMS IN THE AGGREGATE, THE AMOUNTS PAID OR
PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR
THOUGHTSPOT CLOUD SUBSCRIPTIONS AND CONSULTING
SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE
12-MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE MOST RECENT
EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY.
-
7.2. Exclusions. TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR THOUGHTSPOT
WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR
ANY SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, MULTIPLE, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER INDIRECT DAMAGES,
OR FOR DAMAGES RELATING TO: (A)
LOSS OR INACCURACY OF, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA; (B) LOST REVENUE OR PROFITS; (C) LOSS OF BUSINESS; (D) DAMAGE TO GOODWILL; (E) WORK STOPPAGE; (F) IMPAIRMENT OF OTHER ASSETS; OR (G) INDIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE
HOWEVER CAUSED AND WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LEGAL
THEORY UNDER WHICH THEY ARE SOUGHT, WHETHER BY
BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, IN TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR
EQUITABLE CAUSE OF ACTION, FORESEEABLE OR NOT, AND
WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED
SUCH DAMAGES ARE POSSIBLE.
-
7.3. Applicability. The provisions
of Sections 7.1 (Limitation of Liability) and 7.2
(Exclusions) do not apply to: (a)
infringement, misappropriation, or other violation
by a party of the other party’s IPR; (b) payments to a third party
arising from obligations under Section 6
(Third-Party Claims); or (c) tort
actions (separate and distinct from a cause of
action for a breach of this Agreement) for a party’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. The parties,
and not their Affiliates, suppliers, or licensors,
are wholly responsible for any liabilities
hereunder.
8. Term and Termination.
-
8.1. Term and Termination. This
Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues
until either this Agreement is terminated under its
terms or all Order Forms under the Agreement expire,
whichever occurs first. Either party may terminate
this Agreement in its entirety: (a)
immediately on written notice if the other becomes
the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any
proceeding related to its insolvency, receivership,
or liquidation, in any jurisdiction, that is not
dismissed within 60 days of its commencement or an
assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (b) immediately on written notice if
the other party materially breaches this Agreement
and has not cured the breach within 30 days after
notice from the non-breaching party. Consulting
Services are separately ordered from, and are not
required for use of, ThoughtSpot Cloud. A breach by
a party of its obligations with respect to
Consulting Services will not alone constitute a
breach by that party of its obligations with respect
to the ThoughtSpot Cloud even if purchased in the
same Order Form. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
ThoughtSpot may terminate this Agreement and/or the
applicable Order Form immediately upon written
notice to Customer if: (i) Customer has made any
representation, warranty, certification, or
confirmation regarding the Eligibility Criteria that
was inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading when made;
or (ii) Customer undergoes a Change of Control.
-
8.2. Effect. On termination of this
Agreement or expiration of ThoughtSpot Cloud access
for any reason: (a) all use rights
and access granted by ThoughtSpot will automatically
terminate; (b) the parties will
destroy all copies of the other party’s Confidential
Information in their possession, custody, or
control; and (c) if requested,
either party will certify such destruction in
writing. Within 30 days after the effective date of
proper termination for ThoughtSpot’s material
breach, ThoughtSpot will refund any unused prepaid
fees received by ThoughtSpot covering that part of
the Subscription Term for the affected ThoughtSpot
Cloud subscription, if any, remaining after such
effective date. If termination is for Customer’s
breach, all remaining amounts are accelerated and
deemed due and payable as of the termination date.
-
8.3. Survival. Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, the following will
survive termination of this Agreement: Sections 1
(Definitions), 2.2 (Invoices and Payment), 2.3
(Taxes), 2.4 (Evaluation Access), 3.4
(Restrictions), 4.3 (Disclaimers), 5 (Proprietary
Rights), 6 (Third-Party Claims) (but only for one
year following the date of termination), 7
(Limitations of Liability), 8 (Term and
Termination), and 9 (General).
-
8.4. Suspension. In addition to
other rights or remedies in this Agreement,
ThoughtSpot reserves the right to suspend provision
of ThoughtSpot Cloud: (a) if
Customer has a payment 30 or more days overdue; (b) if ThoughtSpot deems such
suspension necessary as a result of Customer’s
breach of Sections 2.4 (StartupSpot Program Terms),
3.2 (Embedded Solutions) 3.4 (Restrictions) or 3.5
(Administration); (c) if
ThoughtSpot reasonably determines suspension is
necessary to avoid material harm to ThoughtSpot or
its other customers, including if ThoughtSpot Cloud
is receiving denial of service attacks, integration
overuse, or other attacks or disruptions outside of
ThoughtSpot’s control; or (d) as
required by Law or at the request of governmental
authorities.
9. General.
-
9.1. Announcements. Neither party
will issue any press releases or announcements, or
any marketing, advertising, or other promotional
materials, related to this Agreement, or referencing
the other party, nor use the other party’s logo,
trademarks and service marks in relation to this
Agreement, without the other party’s prior written
approval.
-
9.2. Export Compliance. Each party
will comply with local and foreign export control
Law, including U.S. export control Law. Without
limiting the foregoing, Customer represents and
warrants that: (a) it is not
located in, and will not use ThoughtSpot Cloud from,
any country subject to U.S. export restrictions
(currently including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria,
or the Crimea, Luhansk, or Donetsk regions); (b) Customer will not use
ThoughtSpot Cloud in the design, development, or
production of nuclear, chemical, or biological
weapons, or rocket systems, space launch vehicles,
sounding rockets, or unmanned air vehicle systems;
and (c) Customer is not prohibited
from participating in U.S. export transactions by
any federal agency of the U.S. government. In
addition, Customer is responsible for complying with
any local Law that may impact Customer’s right to
import, export, or use ThoughtSpot Cloud.
-
9.3. U.S. Federal Government
Access. ThoughtSpot Cloud accessed under this
Agreement is commercial computer software developed
exclusively at private expense. Unless otherwise
expressly set forth in this Agreement, use,
duplication, and disclosure by civilian agencies of
the U.S. Government will not exceed those minimum
rights set forth in FAR 52.227-19(c) or successor
regulations. Use, duplication, and disclosure by
U.S. Department of Defense agencies is subject
solely to the software license terms contained,
referenced, or incorporated in this Agreement, as
stated in DFARS 227.7202 or successor regulations.
U.S. Government rights will apply only to the
specific agency and program for which ThoughtSpot
Cloud is obtained.
-
9.4. Waiver; Amendment. No delay or
failure by either party to exercise any right under
this Agreement will waive that or any other right. A
waiver of any breach of this Agreement is not a
waiver of any other breach. Any waiver must be in
writing and signed by an authorized representative
of the waiving party. Any amendment to this
Agreement must be in writing and signed by
authorized representatives of both parties.
-
9.5. Assignment. Neither party will
assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer this
Agreement, or any of its rights or duties under it,
to a third party without the other’s prior written
consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed. Any purported transaction
in breach of this Section 9.5 is deemed material and
is void. Each party is, however, deemed to have
consented to any such assignment, delegation, or
transfer to: (a) an Affiliate; or (b) any entity that acquires all or
substantially all of its capital stock or assets
related to this Agreement through purchase, merger,
consolidation, or otherwise, but only if such entity
is not a direct competitor of the non-assigning
party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will
bind and benefit the parties, their successors, and
permitted assigns.
-
9.6. Notices. All notices and other
communications under this Agreement will be: (a) in writing; (b)
in English; and (c) deemed given
when delivered (or the first business day after
delivery with confirmation of receipt, for notices
permitted by email). Notices under this Agreement
will be sufficient only if: (i)
personally delivered; (ii)
delivered by a major commercial rapid delivery
courier service with tracking capabilities; (iii) mailed by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, to a
party at the address stated in the applicable Order
Form (or at such address as the recipient has
notified the other party of, before notice was
sent); or (iv) sent via email, if
the recipient’s email address is provided in this
Agreement (but email will not be sufficient for
notices regarding a claim, demand, or alleged
breach). All notices except for ordinary business
communications will be cc’d to the address stated in
the applicable Order Form.
-
9.7. Dispute Resolution. This
Agreement and performance under it will be governed
by the substantive laws of the State of California,
disregarding its conflict of law rules. If federal
jurisdiction exists over any suit, action, or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive
jurisdiction and venue in San Francisco, California.
If not, the parties consent to exclusive
jurisdiction and venue in the California state
courts sitting in Santa Clara County, California. In
any such suit, action, or proceeding, the prevailing
party may recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees,
costs, and other expenses, including those on appeal
or in a bankruptcy action. The United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale
of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information
Transactions Act, as currently enacted by any
jurisdiction or as may be codified or amended from
time to time by any jurisdiction, do not apply to
this Agreement.
-
9.8. Force Majeure. Neither party
will be responsible for any delay or failure in its
performance of any obligation under this Agreement
(other than payment) due to causes beyond its
reasonable control, but only if the party invoking
this Section 9.8 promptly notifies the other party
and resumes performance promptly when conditions
allow it to do so.
-
9.9. Relationship. The parties are
independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement
will be construed to create a partnership, joint
venture, agency, or other relationship. Neither
party has any right or authority to assume or create
any obligation of any kind, express or implied, in
the other party’s name or on its behalf. There are
no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement and
ThoughtSpot disclaims all obligations and
liabilities to third parties under this Agreement
except as expressly described in Section 6
(Third-Party Claims).
-
9.10. Severability. If any part of
this Agreement is held by a court or other tribunal
of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, that
part will be deemed reformed to effectuate the
parties’ intentions, and the rest of this Agreement
will remain in full force and effect.
-
9.11. Execution and Construction.
This Agreement is effective only when executed by
electronic signature service, or in counterparts,
which together (including any expressly incorporated
terms) will be deemed the entire agreement. Such
execution requirement is, without limitation, a
material term. Section headings are intended solely
for convenience and will not affect the meaning of
this Agreement. This Agreement will be interpreted
according to its plain meaning without presuming it
should favor either party. Unless stated or context
requires otherwise: (a) all
internal references are to this Agreement and its
parties; (b) first-level section
references (e.g., “as provided in Section 1”)
includes all subordinate subsections (e.g., 1.1,
1.2, etc.) within that section; (c)
all monetary amounts are expressed and, if
applicable, payable, in U.S. dollars; (d) “days” means calendar days; (e) “may” means that the applicable
party has a right, but not a concomitant duty; (f) “notify” means to give notice
under (and “notice” means a notice that complies
with) Section 9.6 (Notices); (g)
“current” or “currently” means “as of the Effective
Date” but “then-current” means the present time when
the applicable right is exercised, obligation is
incurred, or performance is rendered or measured; (h) URLs are understood to also
refer to successors, localizations, and information
or resources linked from within websites at such
URLs; (i) lists of examples
following “including”, “e.g.”, “such as”,
“excludes”, “for example”, or similar words are
deemed to include “without limitation”; (j) the word “or” is deemed to be an
inclusive “or”; and (k) a party’s
choices under this Agreement are in its sole
discretion. Any translation of the English-language
version of this Agreement is for convenience only,
and the English-language version will govern. The
parties expressly wish to execute this Agreement and
any associated documentation in English.
-
9.12. Entire Agreement. This
Agreement (including any expressly incorporated
terms) sets forth the complete and exclusive
agreement between the parties relating to its
subject matter and supersedes all prior oral and
written agreements, understandings, and
communications (including any requests for quote,
requests for information, requests for proposal, or
the like), click-through agreements and embedded
end-user license agreements, regarding its subject
matter. If, however, a signed master subscription
agreement governing Customer’s SaaS purchases is in
effect between the parties, then that agreement will
govern, and the terms of this Agreement will not
supersede its terms. If Customer will utilize a
third-party authorized reseller, marketplace, or
financing provider to render payment, then the terms
of Customer’s agreement with that third party will
apply to payment only, and any other additional or
conflicting terms offered by the third party will be
of no effect between the parties to this Agreement.
This Agreement does not supersede or apply to (and
no rights are granted hereunder with respect to)
third-party services or software, APIs, SDKs,
development tools, and sample code, separately
licensed by ThoughtSpot or a third party, or
software and other materials made available on
ThoughtSpot’s CodeSpot facility or its other
developer pages. Purchase orders issued by Customer
are for Customer’s internal purposes only and
ThoughtSpot rejects, and in the future is deemed to
have rejected, any purchase order terms. Invoices
issued by ThoughtSpot will be effective solely to
specify the charges for the ThoughtSpot Cloud
subscription and Consulting Services. All other
terms and conditions printed or included on, or
referenced in, such purchase orders, invoices,
acknowledgments, terms imposed for access to
purchasing systems or receipt of purchase orders,
and other ordering documents or correspondence, that
purport to add to or modify the terms of this
Agreement are expressly rejected by the parties and
will be of no force or effect.
