In addition to the limitation of liability set forth Section 8(h) of this Agreement, Hyperion's liability for damages from any cause of action whatsoever relating to Hyperion's obligations to provide Support services as a subcontractor to Partner, shall be limited to the unused amount prepaid by Partner to Hyperion for such End User Support for the applicable year. THESE SUBCONTRACTING TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE PROVISION OF END USER SUPPORT CONSTITUTE A SERVICE CONTRACT AND NOT A PRODUCT WARRANTY. HYPERION FOR ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS DISCLAIMS ALL SERVICE WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

(f) Additional Products and Services.

The prices for such products and services in effect as of the Effective Date are specified in Exhibit A; however, Hyperion reserves the right to change such prices without notice.

(g) Source Code Escrow. Hyperion maintains a copy of Hyperion source code for the Software with a source code escrow agent (the "Agent"). Upon Partner's request, Hyperion shall forward a source code escrow agreement ("Escrow Agreement") to Partner for execution after which Hyperion shall register Partner with the Agent. Such Escrow Agreement shall contain release conditions that shall provide for specified Hyperion source code to be released to Partner in the event that Hyperion has: (i) materially failed, after the expiration of any applicable cure period, to materially perform maintenance or support obligations which Hyperion agreed to perform under the Agreement so long as Partner is current on maintenance, i.e., current on maintenance payments and is running the then-currently Hyperion supported version(s) of the Hyperion Software; or (ii) Hyperion has materially ceased to do business in the ordinary course and has become insolvent without a successor in interest. Partner agrees to pay for the registration and continued listing of Partner with Agent at Agent's then current fees for such service subject to the specific purpose herein. Partner shall not be eligible to receive the source code under the Escrow Agreement unless Partner has paid for and is current on escrow enrollment and renewal, and has paid for and is entitled to Support from Hyperion for the Software. Partner's use of such source code shall be subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement and the Agreement. From time to time Hyperion shall permit Partner to extend third party beneficiary rights in Hyperion source code for the Software to specific End Users who request such third party beneficiary rights. For each End User desiring third party beneficiary rights to Hyperion's source code, Partner must execute a separate Addendum for Third Party Beneficiary Rights to Source Code form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit F.

(i) "Confidential Information" means all information related to the business of the disclosing party that may be obtained by the receiving party from any source as a result of this Agreement, provided that if written, the information is clearly identified as proprietary or confidential, and if oral, shall be followed by a written summary of such oral communication within fifteen (15) days of the date of disclosure. Confidential Information includes (but is not limited to) source code, algorithms, concepts, pricing information, business methods, customer lists, customer contact information, customer information and data, business and technical plans, research and test results, including the results of any performance or benchmark tests or evaluation of the Software.

Each party agrees that it will not use the Confidential Information of the other party except as authorized in the Agreement. Each party further agrees that it will maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information of the other party and prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of any Confidential Information by its clients, customers, employees, subcontractors or representatives. In no event shall any party use less care to maintain the Confidential Information of the other party than it uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own similar non-public information.

Any breach of this provision shall be considered a material breach of the Agreement.

(k) Force Majeure. Neither party shall be responsible for any delay in its performance due to causes beyond its reasonable control.

(l) Assignment. Partner may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer the Agreement or any of its rights or obligations to a third party and any such attempted transfer shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Partner may assign, upon written notice to Hyperion, its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation to which it is a party or to any entity which acquires all or substantially all of its capital stock or assets, provided that such entity is not a competitor of Hyperion.

No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver in the future except as specifically set forth in writing.

In any legal action relating to this Agreement, Partner agrees that the federal or state courts of California located in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County shall have the sole and exclusive jurisdiction over the matter.

(r) Survival of Obligations. The following obligations will survive termination of the Agreement for any reason: (a) all obligations relating to non-use and nondisclosure of Confidential Information; (b) all obligations relating to indemnification and protection of proprietary rights; (c) all obligations to make payments of undisputed amounts (disputed amounts must be a bona fide dispute), that are or become due under this Agreement prior to termination; (d) all obligations regarding maintenance of records for tracking sublicense fees owing to Hyperion; and (e) all provisions regarding the limitations of warranty, remedy and liability.
