21.2.

License Limitation. Client may use the Software only at the specific facilities identified in Exhibit A and only on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Client may not use the Software as part of a commercial time-sharing or service bureau operation or in any other resale capacity. Client may use the Documentation solely in support of the Software. Client agrees not to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or extract, as applicable, any ideas, algorithms or procedures from the Software or Documentation for any reason. Client may not use the System as a guide or template for the purposes of determining specifications or requirements for or in any way developing a similar or competing product. Client may not reverse engineer or decompile the Software.

21.3.

Copies. Client may not copy the Software. Client may copy the Documentation to support Client’s licensed use of the Software in accordance with this Agreement, subject to any restrictions specified in Exhibit A. Any copies Client makes of the Documentation, in whole or in part, are Licensor’s property.

21.5.

Third Party Software. All third party software provided by Licensor to Client as a part of the Software is also subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable third party license agreement. Changes in the Software that Licensor may make from time to time may make it necessary for Client to acquire, at its own expense, updated versions of the third party software or additional third party products.

HARDWARE LEASE

22.1.

23.3.

Licensor will provide Client with all enhancements to the Software that Licensor develops and generally makes available at no charge to other licensees of the Software (“Enhancements”);

right, title or interest in or to the Confidential Information. Client agrees: (i) to hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence; (ii) to limit disclosure of the Confidential Information to Client’s own employees having a need to know the Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement; (iii) not to disclose any Confidential Information to any third party; (iv) to use the Confidential Information solely and exclusively in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in order to carry out its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement; (v) to afford the Confidential Information at least the same level of protection against unauthorized disclosure or use as Client normally uses to protect its own information of a similar character, but in no event less than reasonably care; and (vi) to notify [Guardian and] Licensor promptly of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information and to cooperate with and assist Licensor in every reasonable way to stop or minimize such unauthorized use or disclosure.

25.3.

Client agrees that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Client has breached, or attempted or threatened to breach, its confidentiality obligations or [Guardian’s or] Licensor’s proprietary rights, money damages will not provide an adequate remedy. Accordingly, [Guardian and] Licensor will be entitled to seek appropriate injunctive relief and other measures restraining further attempted or threatened breaches of such obligations. Such relief or measures will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to [Guardian and] Licensor.

26.

WARRANTY.

26.1.

Licensor warrants during the first one (1) year after the Effective Date (the “Warranty Period”), that performance of the Software will not deviate materially from the specifications identified in Exhibit A (the “Specifications”). A material deviation of the Software from its Specifications is referred to in this Agreement as an “Error.” If Client believes there has been a breach of this warranty it must notify Licensor in writing within the Warranty Period describing the Error in sufficient detail to enable Licensor to recreate it. If there has been a breach of this warranty, then Licensor’s sole obligation, and Client’s exclusive remedy, will be for Licensor to correct the Error at no charge. However, if Licensor is unable to correct an Error after repeated efforts, Client will also be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the Initial Term Fees to reflect any reduction in the value of the Software as a result of the uncorrected Error. If a reported breach of warranty is attributable to a cause other than a breach of this warranty, then Licensor will be entitled to payment for its investigation and correction efforts on a time and materials basis at Licensor’s then-current rates.

26.2.

Licensor warrants during the Warranty Period, that performance of the Hardware will not deviate materially from the manufacturer’s specifications. If Client believes there has been a breach of this warranty it must notify Licensor in writing within the Warranty Period describing the alleged breach in sufficient detail to enable Licensor to recreate it. If there has been a breach of this warranty, then Licensor’s sole obligation, and Client’s exclusive remedy, will be for Licensor to repair or replace the Hardware so that it conforms to its specifications. However, if Licensor is unable to correct any breach of warranty after repeated efforts, Client will also be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the Initial Term Fees to reflect any reduction in the value of the Hardware as a result of the uncorrected breach of warranty. If a reported breach of warranty is attributable to a cause other than a breach of this warranty, then Licensor will be entitled to payment for its investigation and correction efforts on a time and materials basis at Licensor’s then-current rates.

26.3.

Licensor warrants that the Software does not, to Licensor’s knowledge, infringe any third party copyrights, patents or trade secrets that exist on the Effective Date and that arise or are enforceable under the laws of the United States of America.

26.3.1.

If a third party brings an action against Client making allegations that, if true, would constitute a breach of this warranty, then Licensor will, at its own expense and subject to the provisions of section 28.2, defend, indemnify and hold Client harmless in such proceeding, and Licensor will pay all settlements, costs, damages and legal fees finally awarded.

26.3.2.

If such a proceeding is brought or appears to Licensor to be likely to be brought, Licensor may, at its sole option and expense, either obtain the right for Client to continue using the allegedly infringing item(s) or replace or modify the item(s) to resolve such proceeding. If Licensor finds that neither of these alternatives is available to it on commercially reasonable terms, Licensor may require Client to return the System, in which case Client will receive a refund of the amounts paid by it for the System, less a reasonable adjustment for depreciation.

This section 26.3 states Licensor’s entire obligation to Client and Client’s exclusive remedy with respect to any claim of infringement and is in lieu of any implied warranties of non-infringement or non-interference with use and enjoyment of information.

26.4.

Licensor is not responsible for any claimed breaches of the foregoing warranties caused by: (i) modifications made to the System by anyone other than Licensor and its subcontractors working at Licensor’s

Guardian Technologies International, Inc.

Proprietary Software License and Hardware Lease Agreement

Confidential and Proprietary

direction; (ii) the combination, operation or use of the System with any items that Licensor did not supply; or (iii) Client’s failure to use any new or corrected versions of the System made available by Licensor.

26.5.

Licensor does not warrant that the Software will be error-free or that its operation will be uninterrupted. Client acknowledges that it is responsible for the results obtained from use of the System, including without limitation the completeness, accuracy and content of such results.

26.6.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, INTEGRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ACCURACY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING FROM STATUTE, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE.

27.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

27.1.

If Client should become entitled to claim damages from [Guardian or] Licensor (including without limitation, for breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence or other tort claim), [Guardian and] Licensor will be liable only for the amount of Client’s actual direct damages, not to exceed (in the aggregate for all claims) the amount of the fees paid by Client to Licensor with respect to the particular one-year Term in which the claim arises. This limit also applies to Licensor’s licensors. It is the maximum liability for which Licensor and its licensors are collectively responsible.

27.2.

In no event will [Guardian or] Licensor or any person or entity involved in the creation, manufacture or distribution of any software, services or other materials provided by Licensor under this Agreement be liable for: (i) any damages arising out of or related to the failure of Client or its Affiliates or suppliers to perform their responsibilities; (ii) any claims or demands of third parties (other than those third party claims covered by sections 26.3.1); or (iii) any lost profits, loss of business, loss of data, loss of use, lost savings or other consequential, special, incidental, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages, even if Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Licensor will not be held responsible, or to have failed to meet its obligations under this Agreement, if it either delays performance or fails to perform as a result of any cause beyond its reasonable control.

27.3.

The foregoing limitations do not apply to the payment of settlements, costs, damages and legal fees referred to in section 26.3.1. The limitations of liability set forth in this section 27 will survive and apply notwithstanding the failure of any limited or exclusive remedy for breach of warranty set forth in this Agreement. The parties agree that the foregoing limitations will not be read so as to limit any liability to an extent that would not be permitted under applicable law.

28.

INDEM NIFICATION

28.1.

CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE SYSTEM IS ONLY AN AID IN THE DETECTION OF CERTAIN THREATS IN SCANNED LUGGAGE AND/OR PACKAGES. RESPONSIBILITY FOR DETECTING THREATS IN SCANNED LUGGAGE AND/OR PACKAGES REMAINS CLIENT’S RESPONSIBILITY ENTIRELY. IN THAT REGARD, CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE SYSTEM WILL NOT IDENTIFY ALL THREATS IN SCANNED LUGGAGE AND/OR PACKAGES. IT IS ONLY DESIGNED TO ACT AS AN AID TO SECURITY PERSONNEL IN THEIR EXERCIDE OF THEIR DUTIES. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that by entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement, Licensor will not assume and should not be exposed to any liability with respect to passenger safety or with respect to the failure of the System to identify a threat in any scanned luggage or packages. Therefore, except for claims covered by Section 26.3.1, Client will, at its own expense and subject to the provisions of Section 28.2, defend, indemnify and hold Licensor [and Guardian] harmless in all claims or actions by third parties arising out of or relating to the conduct of Client’s business, including without limitation, Client’s operation and use of the System and with respect to passenger safety and security, and Client will pay all settlements, costs, damages and legal fees and expenses finally awarded.

28.2.

A party’s indemnification obligations specified in this Agreement are conditioned upon the indemnified party promptly notifying the indemnifying party in writing of the proceeding, providing the indemnifying party a copy of all notices received by the indemnified party with respect to the proceeding, cooperating with the indemnifying party in defending or settling the proceeding, and allowing the indemnifying party to control the defense and settlement of the proceeding, including the selection of attorneys. The indemnified party may observe the proceeding and confer with the indemnifying party at its own expense.

29.

TERMINATION

29.1.

Term. The term of the software license is perpetual unless terminated as defined below.

29.2.

Termination for Cause. If a party believes that the other party has failed to perform a fundamental obligation the failure of which defeats the essential purpose of this Agreement (a “Breach”), then that party may

Guardian Technologies International, Inc.

Proprietary Software License and Hardware Lease Agreement

Confidential and Proprietary

provide written notice directed to the breaching party describing the alleged Breach in reasonable detail and containing a reference to this Section 29.2. If the breaching party does not, within thirty (30) days after receiving such written notice, either (i) cure the Breach or (ii) if the Breach is not one that can reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, develop a plan to cure the Breach and diligently proceed according to the plan until the Breach has been cured, then the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement for cause by written notice to the breaching party. If Client breaches the restrictions imposed under Sections 21 and 22 or its nondisclosure obligations under Section 25, Licensor will have the right, without affecting any other rights and remedies Licensor may have, to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Client. Termination of this Agreement will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, other remedies available to the terminating party under this Agreement.

29.3.

Return of the Software. Within thirty (30) days after the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Client must return the Software to Licensor. Client must return the Software to Licensor at the address listed in Exhibit A via an internationally recognized express courier service providing shipping tracking and confirmation services, shipping pre-paid, using suitable packaging materials at its own cost.

29.4.

Survival. Any provision of this Agreement that imposes or contemplates continuing obligations on a party will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, including but not limited to sections 25 and 27.

30.

LAW AND DISPUTES

30.1.

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States of America, without regard to any provision of Virginia law that would require or permit the application of the substantive law of any other jurisdiction.

30.2.

Both Licensor and Client agree to comply fully with all relevant export laws and regulations of the United States to ensure that no information or technical data provided pursuant to this Agreement is exported or re-exported directly or indirectly in violation of law.

30.3.

At the written request of either party, the parties will attempt to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement through the informal means described in this Section 30.3. Each party will appoint a senior management representative who does not devote substantially all of his or her time to performance under this Agreement. The representatives will furnish to each other all non-privileged information with respect to the dispute that the parties believe to be appropriate and germane. The representatives will negotiate in an effort to resolve the dispute without the necessity of any formal proceeding. Formal proceedings for the resolution of the dispute may not be commenced until the earlier of: (i) the designated representatives conclude that resolution through continued negotiation does not appear likely; or (ii) thirty (30) calendar days have passed since the initial request to negotiate the dispute was made; provided, however, that a party may file earlier to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period, to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors, or to apply for interim or equitable relief.

30.4.

The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Fairfax County, Virginia and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division. Due to the high costs and time involved in commercial litigation before a jury, the parties waive all right to a jury trial with respect to any and all issues in any action or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement

30.5.

No proceeding, regardless of form, arising out of or related to this Agreement may be brought by either party more than two (2) years after the accrual of the cause of action, except that (i) proceedings related to violation of a party’s proprietary rights or any duty to protect Confidential Information may be brought at any time within the applicable statute of limitations, and (ii) proceedings for non-payment may be brought up to two (2) years after the date the last payment was due.

31.

This Agreement may be modified or amended solely in a writing signed by both parties.

31.2.

Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable, and the unenforceability of any one or more provisions will not affect the enforceability of any other provisions. In addition, if any provision of this Agreement, for any reason, is declared to be unenforceable, the parties will substitute an enforceable provision that, to the maximum extent possible under applicable law, preserves the original intentions and economic positions of the parties.

31.3.

No Waiver. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right, power or remedy will operate as a waiver of that right, power or remedy, and no waiver will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the waiving party. If
