3. SCOPE OF LICENSE AND SUPPORT
3.1 In consideration of the Fees paid by the Licensee to AppsAnywhere, AppsAnywhere hereby grants to Licensee, a non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as provided below) license, without the right to sublicense, for the Term to use the Licensed Materials in accordance with this Agreement.
3.2 If the Licence Type is a Site Licence, the relevant client-side application component of the Licensed Software may be used in respect of either Licensee-owned Devices or End User-owned Devices. The Licensee acknowledges that the Licence Fee for Site Licences is priced by reference to the published Higher Education Statistics Agency (“HESA”) student Full Time Equivalent (“FTE”) numbers of the Licensee. AppsAnywhere may increase the Licence Fee at any time (in accordance with the standard licence fee bands adopted by AppsAnywhere and available on request from time to time) if the Licensee merges with, or is taken over by, another entity/institution, or if it otherwise increases student numbers itself (whether by taking over other institutions, or additional sites or otherwise), such that the published HESA student FTE number for the Licensee (or the entity it is taken over by or merges with) increases by 20% or more. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Licensee shall notify AppsAnywhere as soon as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware of an increase in student numbers.
3.3 If the Licence Type is a Device Licence, the licence of the Licensed Software is limited to use of the relevant client-side application of the Licensed Software on Licensee-owned Devices. AppsAnywhere shall provide the Licensee with a licence key, which the Licensee may use to download the client-side application of the Licensed Software on to the number of Devices set out in the Order. If the number of Devices onto which the Licensee downloads the client-side application of the Licensed Software exceeds the number previously agreed, AppsAnywhere may expand the scope of the licence and the provisions of clause 4.4 shall apply.
3.4 AppsAnywhere shall provide Licensee with the Support Services as specified in the Support Services Specification. Where AppsAnywhere makes the Licenced Software available to the Licensee via a cloud hosted environment, AppsAnywhere shall provide the Licensee with the Support Services as specified in the Hosting Support Services Specification.
3.5 Where AppsAnywhere makes the Licenced Software available to the Licensee via a cloud hosted environment, the Licensee acknowledges, agrees and accepts that:
3.5.1 it will not have direct access to the configuration or data (via AppsAnywhere’s database, for example) and that the only data it has access to is what is exposed via the product and/or anything that is accessible from within the product;
3.5.2 designated staff of AppsAnywhere will have full access to all of the Licensee’s cloud systems, usage data, account management information, product configuration data and any data that is shared by the Licensee to authenticate the end users to access the product; and
3.5.3 it cannot control or restrict access to any data that is stored within the Licensed Software (for example, in AppsAnywhere’s database) and that such control remains with AppsAnywhere.
3.6 Save where the Licensed Software is made available to the Licensee via a cloud hosted environment, and without prejudice to any of its other obligations in this Agreement, Licensee shall:
3.6.1 prepare the Licensee’s Devices, computer network and environment (including, its Site and servers) for the installation and use of the Licensed Software, prior to any such installation or use; and
3.6.2 provide such access (including without limitation remote access), on a timely basis, to the Licensee’s Site, servers, network and computer systems as may reasonably be required by AppsAnywhere to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
3.7 AppsAnywhere will provide Upgrades of the Licensed Software generally made available to its customers at such times as it may determine in its discretion. Licensee shall adopt and use any such upgraded Licensed Software as may be provided by AppsAnywhere as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt but in any event within 4 weeks of the Upgrade being released to it. The Licensee acknowledges that the warranties provided in clause 6 relate to the latest version (from time to time) of the Licensed Software only and will not apply if the Licensee does not comply with this clause.
3.8 If the Licensee orders Packaging Subscription Services, AppsAnywhere shall provide such Packaging Subscription Services in accordance with the Packaging Subscription Specification.
3.9 Any dates supplied by AppsAnywhere for delivery of any Services under this Agreement shall be treated as approximate only. AppsAnywhere shall not in any circumstances be liable for any loss or damage arising from any delay in delivery beyond such approximate dates. Time shall not be of the essence.
3.10 In relation to scope of use:
3.10.1 for the purposes of clause 3.1 and irrespective of the Licence Type, use of the Licensed Materials shall be restricted to use of it in object code form for the Licensee’s normal business purposes (which shall not include allowing the use of the Licensed Materials by, or for the benefit of, any person other than End Users);
3.10.2 the Licensee may not use the Licensed Materials other than as specified in this Agreement without AppsAnywhere’s prior written consent, and the Licensee acknowledges that additional fees may be payable on any change of use approved by the Licensee;
3.10.3 the Licensee may make backup copies of the Licensed Materials as may be necessary for its lawful use in accordance with this Agreement. The Licensee shall record the number and location of all copies of the Licensed Materials and take steps to prevent unauthorised copying;
3.10.4 except as expressly stated in this clause, the Licensee has no right (and shall not permit any third party) to copy, adapt, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, adapt or make error corrections to the Licensed Software in whole or in part except to the extent that any reduction of the Licensed Software to human readable form (whether by reverse engineering, decompilation or disassembly) is necessary for the purposes of integrating the operation of the Licensed Software with the operation of other software or systems used by the Licensee, unless AppsAnywhere is prepared to carry out such action at a reasonable commercial fee or has provided the information necessary to achieve such integration within a reasonable period, and the Licensee shall request AppsAnywhere to carry out such action or to provide such information (and shall meet AppsAnywhere’s reasonable costs in providing that information) before undertaking any such reduction;
3.10.5 Third-Party Applications. The Licensed Software may link, interface, and integrate with third-party software applications and websites that are not operated or controlled by AppsAnywhere (each, a “Third-Party Application”). All such Third-Party Applications shall remain the property of their third-party providers. Licensee hereby acknowledges and agrees that AppsAnywhere is not responsible for the content or practices of the Third-Party Applications. Licensee is solely responsible for any required third-party account setup or fees levied by any such Third-Party Applications for using their services. To the extent any Third-Party Application requires accepting any third-party terms and conditions or agreement, Licensee (and not AppsAnywhere) shall be responsible for entering into any such terms and conditions or agreements. It shall be Licensee's responsibility to, and Licensee shall, ensure that the use of the Licensed Software in connection with any such Third-Party Applications complies with any applicable terms. A material breach of any such Third-Party Application terms shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. Any links to or content from Third-Party Applications in the Licensed Software are provided for Licensee’s convenience only. Licensee's reliance on any Third-Party Application is at Licensee's own risk; AppsAnywhere does not endorse or warranty any Third-Party Application, including any Third-Party Application linked to, or interfaced or integrated with, the Licensed Software. AppsAnywhere reserves the right to update or remove any functionality available through the Licensed Software at any time for any reason. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that the Licensed Software incorporates Third-Party Applications provided by Numecent, Inc. As a condition of Licensee’s or any of Licensee’s End Users’ use of the Licensed Software, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensee and such End Users shall be bound by the terms and conditions of Numecent’s End User License Agreement linked here: https://www.appsanywhere.com/company/legal/numecent-cloudpaging-eula.

THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS-IS” AND “AS-AVAILABLE” BASIS AND APPSANYWHERE SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY INTERACTION WITH ANY THIRD-PARTY APPLICATION, WHETHER THROUGH THE LICENSED SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE, BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE LICENSEE. APPSANYWHERE SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS THAT ARISE AS A RESULT OF ANY SUCH INTERACTION, ANY LIABILITY THAT ARISES AS A RESULT OF ANY SUCH INTERACTION (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION UNDER ANY APPLICABLE TERMS OF SERVICE), OR ANY RELATIONSHIP THAT EXISTS OR COMES TO EXIST BETWEEN LICENSEE AND ANY THIRD-PARTY APPLICATION PROVIDER.
3.10.6 the Licensee shall indemnify and hold AppsAnywhere harmless against any loss or damage it may suffer or incur as a result of the Licensee’s breach of any Third-Party Additional Terms howsoever arising; and
3.10.7 AppsAnywhere may treat the Licensee’s breach of any Third-Party Additional Terms as a breach of this Agreement.
3.11 The Licensee may not use any such information provided by AppsAnywhere or obtained by the Licensee during any such reduction permitted under clause 3.10.4 to create any software whose expression is substantially similar to that of the Licensed Software nor use such information in any manner which would be restricted by any copyright subsisting in it.

3.13.8 permit AppsAnywhere to inspect and have access to any premises (and to the computer equipment or any Devices located there) at or which the Licensed Software is being kept (save where the Licensed Software is being made available to the Licensee via a cloud hosted environment) or used, and have access to any records kept in connection with this Agreement, for the purposes of ensuring that the Licensee is complying with the terms of this Agreement, provided that AppsAnywhere provides reasonable advance notice to the Licensee of such inspections, which shall take place at reasonable times.
3.14 As part of the Services, AppsAnywhere will make available, via the Licensed Software, other independent websites, apps and/or software which are provided by independent third parties (“Independent Apps”).

4.4 Licensee may at any time during the Term purchase additional Professional Services, Packaging Subscription Credits and/or increase the number of licensed Devices or Sites, by submitting to AppsAnywhere an Order using the following process: (a) the Licensee shall notify AppsAnywhere of the additional Professional Services, Packaging Subscription Credits and/or increases licensed Devices or Sites it wishes to purchase; (b) AppsAnywhere shall provide a quote to the Licensee which shall set out the price for such additional services and shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement or (if there are no such provisions) with AppsAnywhere’s standard price list then in force; and (c) if the Licensee wishes to proceed with the purchase based on the quote provided by AppsAnywhere, it shall submit a purchase order for such additional services. The Licensee shall pay the price for any additional Order within thirty (30) days of the date of the Order. The Licensee acknowledges and agrees that: (a) any Order raised will be subject to the terms of this Agreement; (b) this Agreement will apply to the Order to the exclusion of any other terms that the Licensee seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by law, trade custom or practice or course of dealing; and (c) any quotation given by AppsAnywhere shall not constitute an offer, and is only valid for a period of 30 days from its date of issue.
4.5 Support Services provided pursuant to this Agreement are provided remotely in accordance with the Support Services Specification or the Hosting Support Services Specification (as applicable).

4.7 All amounts payable by the Licensee under the Agreement are exclusive of amounts in respect of value added tax chargeable from time to time (“VAT”). Where any taxable supply for VAT purposes is made under the Agreement by AppsAnywhere to the Licensee, the Licensee shall, on receipt of a valid VAT invoice from AppsAnywhere, pay to AppsAnywhere such additional amounts in respect of VAT as are chargeable on the supply of the Services at the same time as payment is due for the supply of the Services.
4.8 All amounts due under the Agreement shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

Interest under this clause 4.9 will accrue each day at 4% a year above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time, but at 4% a year for any period when that base rate is below 0%.
4.10 If the Agreement includes the provision of Professional Services, the Order or, where applicable, any Subsequent Order, will set out the number of days’ worth of Professional Services that the Licensee is entitled to together with the Professional Services Fee. The Licensee shall pay to AppsAnywhere such Professional Services Fee within 30 days of the date of AppsAnywhere’s invoice for the same. Subject to payment of the Professional Services Fee, the Licensee shall be entitled to “book” or “call-off” Professional Services days. Only full days (of 8 working hours, which includes a one-hour lunch break and a further 15 mins break) can be called off. Pre-paid Professional Services days are valid for 6 months from the date of payment (after which unused days shall expire and cannot be called off and, for the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no refund of any Professional Services Fees paid by the Licensee in respect of expired days). If a Professional Service day is booked or called off by the Licensee, and then subsequently cancelled by the Licensee, the Licensee shall forfeit (and be deemed to have used) that day if notice of cancellation is received by AppsAnywhere less than eight days before the agreed date for providing the said Professional Services. If a Professional Service day is cancelled by the Licensee between eight and fourteen days before the agreed date for providing the said Professional Services, the Licensee shall forfeit (and be deemed to have used) half of that day (and in either case shall not be entitled to either re-book, or otherwise receive any refund of the Professional Services Fee in respect of the forfeited day/half day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, AppsAnywhere may, at its sole discretion, agree to allow the Licensee to file the cancelled day on account for the Licensee to use on a different day throughout the Term.
4.11 For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensee shall be liable for compliance with all of its obligations in this Agreement, including without limitation all of its payment obligations, whether or not it outsources or otherwise arranges for payment of Fees to be made by a procurement (or other) agent on its behalf.
5. TERM & TERMINATION
5.1 Subject to clause 5.2 and 5.3 and to the provisions for early termination contained in clause 5.5, this Agreement will commence (or be deemed to have commenced) on the Commencement Date and will continue for the Initial Term.

5.2 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate this Agreement by giving the other party not less than 60 days’ written notice to terminate (such notice cannot expire prior to the end of the Initial Term, or the end of any Extended Term, as the case may be).
5.3 Prior to expiry of the Initial Term, or any Extended Term (as the case may be), AppsAnywhere may issue a quotation for a renewal of the purchase of the Services in the subsequent Extended Term. Where this is the case, AppsAnywhere shall issue the Licensee a renewed quote for the Fees to be paid by the Licensee during such subsequent Extended Term (“Renewal Quote”).

5.4 Where the Licensee fails to return a signed copy of the Renewal Quote prior to the expiry of the Initial Term, or the current Extended Term, as the case may be, this Agreement shall terminate upon the expiry of the Initial Term, or current Extended Term (as the case may be).

5.6.5 any provision of this Agreement which expressly or by implication is intended to come into or continue in force on or after termination of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

7.2.1 AppsAnywhere shall not in any circumstances have any liability for any losses or damages which may be suffered by the Licensee (or any person claiming under or through the Licensee), whether the same are suffered directly or indirectly or are immediate or consequential, and whether the same arise in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise howsoever, which fall within any of the following categories: (a) special damage even if AppsAnywhere was aware of the circumstances in which such special damage could arise; (b) loss of profits; (c) loss of anticipated savings; (d) loss of goodwill; (e) loss or corruption of data; (f) any indirect losses; or (g) any consequential losses; and
7.2.2 AppsAnywhere’s total liability, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise arising as a result of or in connection with this Agreement, shall in no circumstances exceed a sum equal to the total Fees paid or payable by the Licensee to AppsAnywhere in the Support Period in force at the time the act or omission giving rise to the claim arises. For the purposes of any liability arising after termination, the relevant Support Period will be the Support Period immediately prior to termination.
8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
8.1 The Licensee acknowledges that all Intellectual Property Rights in the Licensed Materials and any Upgrades belong and shall belong to AppsAnywhere or the relevant Third-Party Software Provider (as the case may be), and the Licensee shall have no rights in or to the Licensed Materials other than the right to use them in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
8.2 Licensee shall not remove or alter any copyright notices or proprietary legends affixed by the Software Provider to the Licensed Materials.
8.3 AppsAnywhere undertakes at its own expense to defend the Licensee or, at its option, settle any claim or action brought against the Licensee alleging that the possession of the Licensed Software (or any part thereof) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement infringes the UK Intellectual Property Rights of a third party (“Claim”) and shall be responsible for any reasonable losses, damages, costs (including reasonable legal fees) and expenses incurred by or awarded against the Licensee as a result of or in connection with any such Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 8.3 shall not apply where the Claim in question is attributable to possession or use of the Licensed Software (or any part thereof) by the Licensee in combination with any hardware or software not supplied or specified by AppsAnywhere if the infringement would have been avoided by the use of the Licensed Software not so combined, or use of a non-current release of the Licensed Software.
8.4 If any third party makes a Claim, or notifies an intention to make a Claim against the Licensee, AppsAnywhere’s obligations under clause 8.3 are conditional on the Licensee:
8.4.1 as soon as reasonably practicable, giving written notice of the Claim to AppsAnywhere specifying the nature of the Claim in reasonable detail;
8.4.2 not making any admission of liability, agreement or compromise in relation to the Claim without the prior written consent of AppsAnywhere (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed);
8.4.3 giving AppsAnywhere and its professional advisers access at reasonable times (on reasonable prior notice) to its premises and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or advisers, and to any relevant assets, accounts, documents and records within the power or control of the Licensee so as to enable AppsAnywhere and its professional advisers to examine them and to take copies (at AppsAnywhere’s expense) for the purpose of assessing the Claim; and
8.4.4 subject to AppsAnywhere providing security to the Licensee to the Licensee’s reasonable satisfaction against any claim, liability, costs, expenses, damages or losses which may be incurred, taking such action as AppsAnywhere may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, compromise or defend the Claim.
8.5 If any Claim is made, or in AppsAnywhere’s reasonable opinion is likely to be made, against the Licensee, AppsAnywhere may at its sole option and expense:
8.5.1 procure for the Licensee the right to continue to use the Licensed Software (or any part thereof) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
8.5.2 modify the Licensed Software so that it ceases to be infringing;
8.5.3 replace the Licensed Software with non-infringing software; or
8.5.4 terminate this Agreement immediately by notice in writing to the Licensee and refund any of the Fees paid by the Licensee as at the date of termination (less a reasonable sum in respect of the Licensee’s use of the Licensed Software to the date of termination) on return of the Licensed Software and all copies thereof,
provided that if AppsAnywhere modifies or replaces the Licensed Software, the modified or replacement Licensed Software must comply with the warranties contained in clause 6 and the Licensee shall have the same rights in respect thereof as it would have had under those clauses had the references to the date of this Agreement been references to the date on which such modification or replacement was made.
8.6 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, clause 8.3 shall not apply to the extent that any claim or action referred to in that clause arises directly or indirectly through the possession or use of any Third-Party Software or through the breach of any Third-Party Additional Terms by the Licensee.
8.7 This clause 8 constitutes the Licensee’s exclusive remedy and AppsAnywhere’s only liability in respect of Claims and, for the avoidance of doubt, is subject to clause 7.2.
9. DATA PROTECTION
9.1 The terms of the Data Processing Agreement apply to the processing of personal data by AppsAnywhere on behalf of the Licensee.
9.2 AppsAnywhere may collect, analyse and anonymise data, statistics or other information obtained through the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Licensed Software (collectively “Analytics”) and aggregate such data, statistics or other information with data, statistics or other information obtained from other sources, and may use such Analytics for lawful business purposes, including improvement of the Licensed Software, as long as in doing so, AppsAnywhere does not re-identify any of the Analytics or otherwise link or associate Analytics with any information relating to: (i) Licensee; or (ii) an identified or identifiable natural person.
10. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
10.1 If a party acquires, or has disclosed to it, Confidential Information of the other party pursuant to the Agreement, the provisions of this clause 9 shall apply. A party's Confidential Information shall not include information that:
10.1.1 is or becomes publicly known through no act or omission of the receiving party;
10.1.2 was in the receiving party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure; or
10.1.3 is lawfully disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without restriction on disclosure.
10.2 Each party shall hold the other's Confidential Information in confidence and, unless required by law, not make the other's Confidential Information available to any third party (except its employees, officers, representatives, contractors, subcontractors or advisers who need to know such Confidential Information for the purposes of carrying out its obligations under this Agreement (“Authorised Representatives”)) or use the other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than exercising its rights and performing its obligations under or in connection with the Agreement. Each party shall ensure that its Authorised Representatives to whom it discloses the other party’s Confidential Information comply with this clause 10.
10.3 For the avoidance of doubt, as between the parties to this Agreement, the Licensed Materials constitute the Confidential Information of AppsAnywhere.
10.4 Neither party shall export, directly or indirectly, any technical data acquired from the other party under this Agreement (or any products, including software, incorporating any such data) in breach of any applicable laws or regulations (“Export Control Laws”), including United States export laws and regulations, to any country for which the government or any agency thereof at the time of export requires an export licence or other governmental approval without first obtaining such licence or approval.
10.5 Each party undertakes:
10.5.1 contractually to oblige any third party to whom it discloses or transfers any such data or products to make an undertaking to it in similar terms to the one set out in clause 10.4; and
10.5.2 if requested, to provide the other party with any reasonable assistance, at the reasonable cost of the other party, to enable it to perform any activity required by any competent government or agency in any relevant jurisdiction for the purpose of compliance with any Export Control Laws.

11.2 Entire Agreement.
11.2.1 This Agreement (and any Order entered into between the parties) contains the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all previous verbal and written agreements between the parties, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings between the parties concerning licensing of the Licensed Materials and the provision of Services. Service level agreements shall not form part of this Agreement.

11.3 Variation. AppsAnywhere may vary this Agreement at any time by providing written notice to the Licensee (including via email). If the Licensee does not notify AppsAnywhere in writing of its objection to the variation by the effective date of change stated in the variation notification, the Licensee will be deemed to accept the variation and the varied terms and conditions will apply from the effective date of change. If the Licensee does not consent to the variation by AppsAnywhere, AppsAnywhere may (notwithstanding any minimum periods and without any liability) terminate this Agreement by written notice prior to or within 30 days after the effective date of change.
11.4 Waiver. No failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Agreement or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
11.5 Severability. If any provision or part-provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the Agreement. If any provision of the Agreement is deemed deleted under this clause, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree a replacement provision that, to the greatest extent possible, achieves the intended commercial result of the original provision.
11.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

This clause does not apply to the service of any proceedings or other documents in any legal action.
