1.1   Service; Orders. These Enterprise Terms set forth the terms and conditions under which Pluralsight may make available to Customer Pluralsight’s platforms for helping Users (defined below) learn, teach, and connect, provided under the Pluralsight brand (the “Pluralsight Service”) and the A Cloud Guru brand (the “ACG Service”) and other related services (together, the “Service”) each as expressly identified in a sales order that (a) is executed by an authorized representative of each Party and (b) expressly references and incorporates these Enterprise Terms (defined below) (each, an “Order”). Each Order, upon execution by both Parties, is subject to the terms of, and is deemed incorporated into, these Enterprise Terms.

1.2  Addenda. The Service will be provided pursuant to an executed Order. An Order may reference one or more additional documents that contain terms relevant to a particular Service (each, an “Addendum”). All Addenda are deemed incorporated into these Enterprise Terms. Additionally, Pluralsight’s Privacy Notice available at https://www.pluralsight.com/privacy is hereby incorporated by reference into these Enterprise Terms.

1.3  Order Term. Unless earlier terminated in accordance with these Enterprise Terms or the applicable Order, each Order will continue for the initial term specified in such Order (“Initial Order Term”) and, unlesseitherPartyprovidestheotherwithnoticeof non-renewal, upon the date of expiration of the then-current term, such Order will automatically renew for successive twelve-month terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) or such other length of Renewal Term period as stated on the Order (the Initial Order Term and each Renewal Term, if any, collectively, the “Order Term” of such Order). Notice of non-renewal of an Order must be provided by a Party at least 30 days prior to the end of the Initial Order Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable (or such other period as expressly specified on the applicable Order). Renewal of any Order may be conditioned on and subject to Customer’s agreement to changes to these Enterprise Terms and applicable Addenda. Orders that are solely for professional services will remain in effect until the professional services are completed (unless earlier terminated in accordance with these Enterprise Terms or the Order) and will not automatically renew, nor will any professional services included on any other Order automatically renew for a Renewal Term unless otherwise expressly specified on the applicable Order. Customer acknowledges that its access to a Service (or certain features thereof) may be automatically disabled upon expiration of the applicable Order Term.

1.4 Order of Precedence. Any conflict between an Order, an Addendum, or Sections 1–9 of these Enterprise Terms will be resolved according to the following order of precedence: (1) the Order or SOW; (2) the Addendum; and (3) the Enterprise Terms. 

2.1  Service Access. If an Order indicates that Customer will receive access to a Service, then Customer may access and use such Service solely (a) for the Order Term set forth in such Order, and (b) in accordance with all applicable Documentation (defined below) and the restrictions set forth in these Enterprise Terms (including the applicable Order).

2.2  Users. Only the employees or contractors of Customer, that Customer allows to use the Service (“Users”), using the mechanisms designated by Pluralsight (“Log-in Credentials”), may access and use the Service, and only in the number set forth in the applicable Order. Each User must keep its Log-in Credentials confidential and not share them with anyone else. Customer is responsible for its Users’ compliance with these Enterprise Terms and all actions taken through their Log-in Credentials (excluding misuse of the Log-in Credentials caused by Pluralsight’s breach of these Enterprise Terms). Customer will promptly notify Pluralsight if it becomes aware of any compromise of any Log-in Credentials. Pluralsight may process Log-In Credentials in connection with Pluralsight’s provision of the Services or for Pluralsight’s internal business purposes.

(a) Managing Users and Subscription Plans

(i). Registration of Individual Users. Depending on the Service that Customer purchases, registers for, orders, or renews, Customer may designate one or more of its employees to act as plan manager(s) (each, a “Plan Manager”). Any Plan Manager Customer authorizes will have the ability to view user data and content, purchase additional subscriptions, invite Users to utilize the features included in the Service, including assigning and authorizing Users via the Platform’s administrative functionalities. By purchasing a Service, a specific number of individuals may register as Pluralsight Users and receive access to the Service. Users must be designated and assigned by the business purchasing the Service or by such business’s designated Plan Manager, after which Users will be invited to register for a Pluralsight account and receive access to the Service.

(ii). Changing the Number of Users. Customer or its Plan Manager may add additional Users during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as applicable. Access to the Service is conditioned upon timely payment for each User added, which will be prorated for the number of days remaining in Customer’s then-current Term and paid by Customer. The number of individual Users permitted in Customer’s Plan may not be reduced during the Term, nor will refunds be given for unused or unassigned licenses.

(iii). Transfer of Access Not Permitted. Customer acknowledges that User access is specific to the individuals designated by Customer or its Plan Manager. Except as set forth in an Order, access granted under these Enterprise Terms are not transferable to any other individual for any reason, and Customer will take all commercially reasonable steps to prevent its Users from granting access to the Platform to any other individuals, both in and outside of Customer’s organization.

2.3.  Additional Features. Customer acknowledges that not all of the features or functionality of a Service may be available at Customer’s subscription level irrespective of whether such feature or functionality is described in the Documentation, and that access to such features or functionality may require payment of additional fees or the purchase of additional licenses.

2.4  Evaluation Services. If an Order indicates that Customer will receive access to a Service for evaluation or proof-of-concept purposes, then Customer may use the Service only for the purpose of evaluating the functions and performance of the Service, solely for the designated time period for the evaluation or trial, and subject to any additional usage restrictions specified on the applicable Order. Customer acknowledges that evaluation or proof-of-concept versions of the Service may be disabled automatically upon expiration of the designated trial period (at the end of which Customer’s right to use the Service under the applicable Order also expires), and that any data stored in such Service may become unavailable at that time.

2.5  Use Restrictions. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in these Enterprise Terms or as may be expressly permitted by applicable law, Customer will not, and will not permit or authorize Users or other third parties to:

(g) use or access any server instances that provide interactive environments as a part of the ACG Service and the API and materials related thereto (“Interactive Sessions”);

(h) use any data or information other than simulated, anonymous, non-live data when using the Interactive Sessions (i.e., Customer must not use real customer data or information or real transactions);

(i) use the Service to transmit any bulk unsolicited commercial communications or as a mail sender, or use any automated process or service to access or use the Service such as a BOT, a spider, or periodic caching of information stored by Pluralsight or its licensors;

(j) perform any fraudulent activity including impersonating any person or entity, claiming a false affiliation or identity, accessing any other Service account without permission, or falsifying your age or date of birth;

2.6  Documentation. To the extent that a Service is accompanied by any Pluralsight-provided user manuals, help files, specification sheets, or other documentation, in whatever form, relating to a Service (“Documentation”), Pluralsight hereby grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (unless otherwise specified in an Order) right and license under Pluralsight’s rights in the Documentation to use such Documentation solely to enable Customer to exercise its rights under the applicable license to or grant of access and usage rights for such Service set forth in Section 2.1.

2.7  Third-Party Services. To the extent that a Service includes or is accompanied by third-party software or other products (e.g., cloud hosting instances or data analysis tools) that Pluralsight provides to Customer or that is otherwise identified in the Documentation as being required to use such Service (“Third-Party Products”), the Third-Party Products and their use by Customer are subject to all license and other terms that accompany such Third-Party Products. Customer will abide by and comply with all such terms. Without limiting the foregoing, if Pluralsight enables Customer to access a hosted environment offered by a third-party cloud or platform service provider, then Customer must agree to the applicable service provider’s terms and conditions prior to accessing such hosted environment, and Customer will comply at all times with such terms and conditions.

2.8  Compliance with Laws. Customer will use the Service and Documentation in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Further, in performing its obligations under the Agreement, Pluralsight shall, and shall require that each of its subcontractors, suppliers, and other participants in its supply chain, to comply with all applicable modern slavery laws, regulations, rules and codes including, but not limited to, the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (collectively, the “Acts”). Pluralsight has and shall maintain throughout the Term of these Enterprise Terms, its own policies and procedures to ensure its compliance with these Acts.

2.9  Protection against Unauthorized Use. Customer will prevent any unauthorized use of the Service and Documentation and will promptly notify Pluralsight in writing of any unauthorized use of which Customer becomes aware, but in no event later than 24 hours following awareness of such unauthorized use. Customer will immediately terminate any unauthorized use by persons having access to a Service or Documentation through Customer.

2.10  Ownership; Content. As between Pluralsight and Customer, Customer retains all right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to any data, information, audio, video, or other works of authorship or other works that Customer uploads or inputs into a Service or otherwise makes available to Pluralsight (“Customer Content”). Customer hereby grants Pluralsight a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable, fully transferable, irrevocable license to host, store, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, communicate to the public, reproduce, modify, create derivative works of, and distribute Customer Content: (a) during the Term, for the purpose of exercising Pluralsight’s rights and performing its obligations under these Enterprise Terms and (b) in perpetuity, in a form that does not identify Customer as the source thereof, for its business purposes, including to develop and improve Pluralsight’s and its Affiliates’ (defined below) products and services. Customer represents and warrants that Customer has all rights necessary to grant Pluralsight the licenses set forth in this section and to enable Pluralsight to exercise its rights under the same without violation or infringement of the rights of any third party. As between the Parties, Pluralsight owns all right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Service, Documentation, and any improvements to any Pluralsight products or services made as a result of Pluralsight’s use, processing, or generation of Customer Content or arising out of these Enterprise Terms.

2.11  Feedback. If Customer provides any feedback to Pluralsight concerning the functionality and performance of the Service or any Documentation (including identifying potential errors and improvements), Customer hereby assigns, transfers, and conveys to Pluralsight all right, title, and interest in and to the feedback, and Pluralsight is granted a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free right to use the feedback without payment or restriction, and without any obligation to provide attribution to Customer.

2.12  Modification of the Service. Pluralsight reserves the right to modify or discontinue all or any portion of the Service at any time (including by limiting or discontinuing certain features of the Service), temporarily or permanently, without notice to Customer. Pluralsight will have no liability for any change to the Service, including any paid-for functionalities of the Service, or any suspension or termination of Customer’s access to or use of the Service. Customer should retain copies of any Customer Content that it uploads or inputs into a Service or otherwise makes available to the Service so that Customer has permanent copies in the event the Service is modified in such a way that Customer loses access to the Customer Content on the Service.

2.13  Professional Services.

(a) Customer and Pluralsight may enter into an Order or Statement of Work (“SOW”) that describe specific professional services to be performed by Pluralsight (“Professional Services”). The scope and features of the Professional Services may be determined by the subscription Customer has purchased under the Order or by way of the description of Professional Services set forth on an Order or SOW executed by the parties.

(b) Unless otherwise specified in an Order or SOW, all Professional Services must be utilized by Customer within one (1) year of purchase. Customer shall have a revocable, non-transferable, term license to use the copy of the materials provided by Pluralsight in connection with the Professional Services for its internal use only. All other rights in the materials remain in and/or are assigned to Pluralsight.

(c) Customer acknowledges that Pluralsight may develop for itself, or for others, content similar to the materials and processes developed in performing the Professional Services, and nothing contained herein precludes Pluralsight from developing or disclosing such materials and information, provided that the same does not contain or reflect Customer Confidential Information.

(d) Professional Services provided by Pluralsight are for use by Customer only and for the purposes described in the Order or SOW. Pluralsight is not liable for any loss or injury of Customer or its Users arising out of or caused, in whole or in part, by Customer’s or its Users’ use or application of the knowledge gained from the Professional Services. In no event will Customer allow third parties to access or use the materials provided by Pluralsight in connection with the Professional Services provided. Pricing for Professional Services is based on the number of Users and is subject to change. Professional Services are non-cancelable and associated fees paid or payable are non-refundable and cannot be used as a credit towards any other amounts due to Pluralsight. 

3.1 Fees and Payment Terms. Customer will pay Pluralsight the fees and any other amounts owing under these Enterprise Terms as specified in the applicable Order, including, where applicable, any early termination fees specified on the Order. Unless otherwise specified in such Order, Customer will pay all amounts due within 30 days of the date of the applicable invoice. Any amount not paid when due will be subject to finance charges equal to 1.5% of the unpaid balance per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable usury law, whichever is less. Customer will reimburse any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Pluralsight to collect any amount that is not paid when due. Amounts due from Customer under these Enterprise Terms may not be withheld or offset by Customer against amounts due to Customer for any reason. In the event your purchase is denominated in a currency other than USD, and in the event the foreign exchange rate varies by more than 5% from the date of Customer’s signature on the Order to the date of payment, Pluralsight may require payment in USD. If Customer files a chargeback disputing charges made by Pluralsight and the chargeback is granted, Customer’s account will be deactivated.

3.2  Excess Usage. If Customer uses the Service in violation of the scope granted hereunder, including but not limited to unauthorized rotation of user subscriptions or adding active Users in excess of those outlined in your Order (“Excess Use”), Pluralsight may, in its sole discretion, invoice Customer for the Excess Use, at the rates set forth in the applicable Order or, in the absence thereof, Pluralsight’s current list price for the features included in Customer’s plan for such Excess Use.

3.3 Taxes. Other than net income taxes imposed on Pluralsight, Customer will bear all taxes, duties, and other governmental charges (collectively, “Taxes”) resulting from these Enterprise Terms. Customer will pay any additional Taxes as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by Pluralsight after all such Taxes are paid are equal to the amounts to which Pluralsight would have been entitled in accordance with these Enterprise Terms if such additional Taxes did not exist. 

4.1  Term. These Enterprise Terms will remain in effect until terminated in accordance with this Section 4 (the “Term”).

4.2  Termination for Convenience. Either Party may terminate these Enterprise Terms for convenience immediately upon notice to the other Party at any time that no Order is in effect.

4.3  Termination for Material Breach. Either Party may terminate these Enterprise Terms or one or more Orders if the other Party does not cure its material breach of these Enterprise Terms or the applicable Order(s) within 30 days of receiving written notice of the material breach from the non-breaching Party. Termination in accordance with this Section 4.3 will take effect when the breaching Party receives written notice of termination from the non-breaching Party, which notice must not be delivered until the breaching Party has failed to cure its material breach during the 30-day cure period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pluralsight may immediately terminate these Enterprise Terms upon notice to Customer, suspend one or more authorized Users’ access to the Service, or take appropriate legal action, including without limitation referral to law enforcement, if Pluralsight reasonably believes that Customer has made or distributed any unauthorized copies of any Service, has violated Section 2.5, has attempted to assign or sublicense any right granted by these Enterprise Terms except as expressly permitted herein, or has otherwise taken any actions that threaten or challenge Pluralsight’s intellectual property rights, including rights in and to any Service. Without limiting any other provision of this section, if Customer fails to timely pay any fees, Pluralsight may, without limitation to any of its other rights or remedies, suspend access to the Service under all Orders until it receives all amounts due.

4.4  Termination for Bankruptcy or Insolvency. Either Party may terminate these Enterprise Terms or one or more Orders if the other Party ceases to do business in the ordinary course or is insolvent (i.e., unable to pay its debts in the ordinary course as they come due), or is declared bankrupt, or is the subject of any liquidation or insolvency proceeding which is not dismissed within one hundred twenty (120) days or makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors.

4.5  Post-Termination Obligations. If these Enterprise Terms are terminated for any reason, (a) Customer will pay to Pluralsight any fees or other amounts that have accrued prior to the effective date of the termination, and (b) any and all liabilities accrued prior to the effective date of the termination will survive.

4.6 Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sections 1, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 3, 4.5, 4.6, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 will survive termination or expiration of these Enterprise Terms.

Without limiting the foregoing, Pluralsight’s “Confidential Information” includes the Service, all Documentation, all Pluralsight technical information, and all information concerning Service-related database structure information and schema.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pluralsight is permitted to disclose Confidential Information of Customer on a need-to-know basis to employees, contractors, and agents of its Affiliates. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it is compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. “Affiliate” means any corporation, partnership, joint venture, or other entity: (i) as to which a Party owns or controls, directly or indirectly, stock or other interest representing more than 50% of the aggregate stock, or other interest entitled to vote on general decisions reserved to the stockholders, partners, or other owners of such entity; (ii) if a partnership, as to which a Party or another Affiliate is a general partner; or (iii) that a Party otherwise is in common control with, controlled by, or controls in matters of management and operations.

6.2  Disclaimer. EXCEPT FOR ANY EXPRESS REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES STATED IN THIS SECTION 6 OR AN ORDER OR ADDENDUM, PLURALSIGHT MAKES  NO ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED (EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW), OR STATUTORY, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER. PLURALSIGHT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUALITY, ACCURACY, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. PLURALSIGHT DOES NOT WARRANT AGAINST INTERFERENCE WITH THE ENJOYMENT OF THE SERVICE.

PLURALSIGHT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE SERVICE OR DOCUMENTATION IS ACCURATE OR COMPLETE OR THAT ANY SUCH INFORMATION WILL ALWAYS BE AVAILABLE. PLURALSIGHT EXERCISES NO CONTROL OVER, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THE RESULTS OF, CUSTOMER’S USE OF THE SERVICE OR DOCUMENTATION. 

7.1  By Pluralsight. Pluralsight will: (a) at its expense, either defend Customer from or settle any claim, proceeding, or suit (“Claim”) brought by a third party against Customer alleging that Customer’s use of the Service as permitted and used pursuant to these Enterprise Terms infringes or misappropriates patents, copyrights, or trademarks, subject to Section 7.4 (an “IP Claim”) , and (b) indemnify Customer from and pay the applicable Losses (defined below). Pluralsight will have no obligation under this section for any infringement or misappropriation to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon any of the following (the “Excluded Claims”): (i) use of the Service in combination with other products, services, or content not provided by Pluralsight if such infringement or misappropriation would not have arisen but for such combination; (ii) the Service having been provided to comply with designs, requirements, or specifications required by or provided by Customer, if the alleged infringement or misappropriation would not have arisen but for the compliance with such designs, requirements, or specifications; (iii) use of the Service by Customer for purposes not intended or outside the scope of the license granted to Customer; (iv) Customer’s failure to use the Service in accordance with instructions provided by Pluralsight, if the infringement or misappropriation would not have occurred but for such failure; or (v) any modification of the Service not made or authorized in writing by Pluralsight where such infringement or misappropriation would not have occurred absent such modification.

7.2  Mitigation; Limited Remedy. If Pluralsight becomes aware of, or anticipates, an IP Claim, Pluralsight may, at its option: (a) modify the Service so that it becomes non-infringing or substitute a functionally equivalent product; (b) obtain a license to the third-party intellectual property rights that may give rise to any Claim; or (c) terminate the affected Order(s) on written notice and refund to Customer any prepaid Fees. Sections 7.1 (with respect to IP Claims) and 7.2 state Pluralsight’s sole and exclusive liability, and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, for the actual or alleged infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any third-party intellectual property right by the Service.

7.3  By Customer. Except to the extent Pluralsight has a duty to defend Customer under Section 7.1, Customer will: (a) at its expense, defend Pluralsight from any actual or threatened third-party Claim arising out of or based upon Customer’s use of a Service (including Customer’s breach of the terms governing any Third-Party Products) or provision of the Customer Content or that is an Excluded Claim, subject to Section 7.4, and (b) indemnify Pluralsight from and pay the applicable Losses.

7.4  Procedures. A party’s obligations as the indemnifying party (“Indemnitor”) with respect to a Claim for which the indemnified Party (“Indemnitee”) is indemnified under this Section 7 (an “Indemnified Claim”) are subject to Indemnitee doing the following: (a) providing Indemnitor prompt written notice of the Indemnified Claim; (b) granting Indemnitor full and complete control over the defense and settlement of the Indemnified Claim; (c) providing assistance in connection with the defense and settlement of the Indemnified Claim as Indemnitor may reasonably request; and (d) complying with any settlement or court order made in connection with the Indemnified Claim. Indemnitee will not defend or settle the Indemnified Claim without Indemnitor’s prior written consent. Indemnitee will have the right to participate in the defense of the Indemnified Claim at its own expense and with counsel of its own choosing, but Indemnitor will have sole control over the defense and settlement of the Indemnified Claim. “Losses” means: (i) all damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees awarded against Indemnitee pursuant to the Indemnified Claim; (ii) all out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Indemnified Claim (other than attorneys’ fees and costs incurred without Indemnitor’s consent after Indemnitee has accepted defense of the Indemnified Claim); and (iii) all amounts that Indemnitor agrees to pay to any third party to settle the Indemnified Claim. 

8.1  Disclaimer of Indirect Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS, NEITHER PARTY WILL, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY IS APPRISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES OCCURRING. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL PLURALSIGHT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA STORED IN, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, A SERVICE.

8.2  Cap on Liability. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL PLURALSIGHT’S TOTAL LIABILITY OF ALL KINDS, IN AGGREGATE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTY CLAIMS), REGARDLESS OF THE FORUM AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY ACTION OR CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID OR OWED BY CUSTOMER TO PLURALSIGHT UNDER THE ORDER WITH RESPECT TO WHICH THE LIABILITY AROSE DURING THE 3 MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE APPLICABLE CLAIM.

8.3  Independent Allocations of Risk. EACH PROVISION OF THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS OF THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS ALLOCATION IS REFLECTED IN THE PRICING OFFERED BY PLURALSIGHT TO CUSTOMER AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8 WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY IN THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS.

9.2  Use of Brand Name. Pluralsight may use the name, brand, or logo of Customer (or Customer’s parent company) solely for the purpose of identifying Customer as a licensee or customer of Pluralsight in a “customer” section of Pluralsight’s website, brochures, or other promotional materials, or as part of a list of Pluralsight’s customers in a press release or other public relations materials. Pluralsight will cease any use of Customer’s name if such use violates any of Customer’s written guidelines. Any such limited use by Pluralsight shall include proper attribution to Customer or its parent company of any trademark or logo of Customer or its parent company and shall in no way suggest that Pluralsight is affiliated with, or speaking on behalf of, Customer or Customer’s parent company. Any other press releases or marketing materials referring to the trademarks or logos of Customer shall require mutual approval in writing prior to public dissemination thereof. If Pluralsight, in the course of exercising its rights hereunder, acquires any goodwill or reputation in any of the Customer’s trademarks or logos, all such goodwill or reputation will automatically vest in Customer.

9.3  Assignability. Neither Party may assign its right, duties, or obligations under these Enterprise Terms without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that Pluralsight may assign these Enterprise Terms to an Affiliate or a successor (including a successor by way of Change of Control or operation of law), or in connection with the sale of all of the assets or business to which these Enterprise Terms relates. A Change of Control shall be deemed to cause an assignment of these Enterprise Terms. “Change of Control” means a merger, acquisition, divestiture, sale of assets or equity, or similar transaction.

9.4  Export. Customer will comply with all applicable export and import laws, rules, and regulations in connection with Customer’s activities under these Enterprise Terms. Customer acknowledges that it is Customer’s responsibility to obtain any required licenses to export and re-export the Service. The Service, including technical data, is subject to U.S. export control laws, including the U.S. Export Administration Act and its associated regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. Customer represents and warrants that the Service is not being and will not be acquired for, shipped, transferred, or re-exported, directly or indirectly, to proscribed or embargoed countries or their nationals and persons on the Table of Denial Orders, the Entity List or the List of Specifically Designated Nationals, unless specifically authorized by the U.S. Government for those purposes.

9.5  U.S. Government Restricted Rights. The Service is commercial computer software, as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101. Accordingly, if the Customer is the U.S. Government or any contractor therefor, Customer will receive only those rights with respect to the Service and Documentation as are granted to all other end users under license, in accordance with (a) 48 C.F.R. §227.7201 through 48 C.F.R. §227.7204, with respect to the Department of Defense and their contractors, or (b) 48 C.F.R. §12.212, with respect to all other U.S. Government licensees and their contractors.

9.6  Subcontractors. Pluralsight may utilize subcontractors or other third parties to perform its duties under these Enterprise Terms so long as Pluralsight remains responsible for all of its obligations under these Enterprise Terms.

9.7  Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given in accordance with these Enterprise Terms will be effective if it is in writing and sent by email, certified or registered mail, or insured courier, return receipt requested, to the appropriate Party at the address set forth below and on the applicable Order and with the appropriate postage affixed. In addition, Customer’s Plan Manager may be provided notice via email. Either Party may change its address for receipt of notice by notice to the other Party in accordance with this section.

9.8  Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for or be considered to be in breach of or default under these Enterprise Terms (except for failure to make payments when due) on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by these Enterprise Terms as a result of any cause or condition beyond its reasonable control, so long as that Party uses all commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove the causes of non-performance.

Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

9.10  Waiver. The waiver by either Party of any breach of any provision of these Enterprise Terms does not waive any other breach. The failure of any Party to insist on strict performance of any covenant or obligation in accordance with these Enterprise Terms will not be a waiver of such Party’s right to demand strict compliance in the future, nor will the same be construed as a novation of these Enterprise Terms.

9.11  Severability. If any part of these Enterprise Terms is found to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, the remaining portions of these Enterprise Terms will remain in full force and effect. If any material limitation or restriction on the use of the Service under these Enterprise Terms is found to be illegal, unenforceable, or invalid, Customer’s right to use the Service will immediately terminate.

9.12  Interpretation. For purposes of these Enterprise Terms, (a)the words “include,” “includes” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation;”; (b) the words “such as,” “for example,” “e.g.” and any derivatives of those words will mean by way of example and the items that follow these words will not be deemed an exhaustive list; (c) the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “and/or” and the terms “or,” “any,” and “either” are not exclusive; (d) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” refer to these Enterprise Terms as a whole; (e) words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice-versa; and (f) whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in these Enterprise Terms will include the corresponding masculine, feminine, or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns will include the plural, and vice versa. The headings set forth in these Enterprise Terms are for convenience of reference purposes only and will not affect or be deemed to affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of these Enterprise Terms or any term or provision hereof. References to “$” and “dollars” are to the currency of the United States of America. Any law defined or referred to herein means such law as from time to time amended, modified, or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor laws.

9.13  Entire Agreement. These Enterprise Terms, including all exhibits and addenda, is the final and complete expression of the agreement between these Parties regarding the subject matter hereof. These Enterprise Terms supersedes, and the terms of these Enterprise Terms govern, all previous oral and written communications regarding these matters, all of which are merged into these Enterprise Terms and the Pluralsight Individual Terms of Use will be of no effect with respect to the products or services described in an applicable Order, except that these Enterprise Terms do not supersede any prior nondisclosure or comparable agreement between the Parties executed prior to these Enterprise Terms being executed, nor does it affect the validity of any agreements between the Parties relating to other products or services of Pluralsight that are not described in an Order and with respect to which Customer has executed a separate agreement with Pluralsight that remains in effect. No employee, agent, or other representative of Pluralsight has any authority to bind Pluralsight with respect to any statement, representation, warranty, or other expression unless the same is specifically set forth in these Enterprise Terms. No usage of trade or other regular practice or method of dealing between the Parties will be used to modify, interpret, supplement, or alter the terms of these Enterprise Terms. These Enterprise Terms may be changed by Pluralsight at any time. Revisions will be effective immediately except that material revisions will be effective 30 days after posting or notice to you of the revisions unless otherwise stated.. Pluralsight will not be bound by, and specifically objects to, any term, condition, or other provision that is different from or in addition to these Enterprise Terms (whether or not it would materially alter these Enterprise Terms) that is proffered by Customer in any receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence, or otherwise, unless Pluralsight specifically provides a written acceptance of such provision signed by an authorized agent of Pluralsight. Any Order signed by the parties under these Enterprise Terms may be executed in any number of counterparts and via .pdf copies, each with the same effect as if all signatories had signed the same document. If so executed, the counterparts shall be deemed an original for all purposes and shall collectively constitute one agreement. For convenience, the signature pages of each counterpart may be removed from that counterpart and attached to a single agreement. These Enterprise Terms have been negotiated at arm’s length between the Parties, both of which are sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters which are encompassed in these Enterprise Terms. In addition, each Party has been represented by experienced and knowledgeable counsel. Accordingly, any rule of law or legal decision that would require the interpretation of ambiguities in these Enterprise Terms against the drafting party are not applicable and are hereby waived.

We may assign these Terms and all rights granted under these Terms, including with respect to your User Content, at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of Section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to.” If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
