This Agreement becomes effective on the date Customer accepts these terms (the “Effective Date”), whether by executing a statement of work, placing an order referencing this Agreement, or otherwise accepting the services from Stratix.
Customer desires to engage Stratix to provide mobile device management services and mobile device products (“Stratix Business”).
Therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Stratix Services.
Customer hereby retains Stratix to perform the services described in the each statement of work under this Agreement (“Statement of Work”) which first statement of work is attached hereto as Exhibit A (“Stratix Services”). In addition to any terms and conditions in any applicable Statement of Work, the terms and conditions of the purchase of product under this Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
2. Term of Agreement & Renewal.
This Agreement shall remain in effect for 36 months from the Effective Date. This Agreement shall renew for successive 12 month periods unless either party provides written notice to the other party of its intention not to renew the Agreement prior to 60 days before the expiration of the current Term.
3. Compensation, Payment, Freight and Taxes.
Customer shall pay Stratix all amounts owed within 30 days from the invoice date. Time is of the essence for such payments. Customer shall not make any set-off or reductions of payments owed to Stratix for any reason. Late payments shall accrue interest at 1.5% compounding monthly, or the highest rate allowed by law. In the event of nonpayment, Stratix may immediately suspend performance of any or all Stratix Services and may invoke any other remedy available under this Agreement or by law. Unless expressly indicated otherwise in a Statement of Work, all payments shall be in U.S. dollars, Customer shall pay (a) all freight Stratix FOB (or, where directly shipped from Stratix supplier, Stratix supplier FOB) (with Customer retaining risk of loss of shipping), and (b) all sales, use, withholding, excise, value added, ad valorem taxes, duties or the like incurred by Customer or imposed on Stratix in the performance of this Agreement or otherwise due as a result of this Agreement (other than Stratix income tax).
4. Independent Contractor Relationship.
Both Customer and Stratix agree that Stratix will act as an independent contractor in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, and that Stratix personnel (where “Personnel” refers to both employees, contractors and agents throughout this Agreement) shall not constitute Customer employees.
5. Confidentiality.
a. “Confidential Information” Defined. “Confidential Information” means any data, materials or information that is not generally known to the public and that is owned or possessed by either party (“Disclosing Party”) and is disclosed to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether in oral, written, digital or other form of disclosure. Confidential Information also includes any third party information which Disclosing Party is required to keep confidential (“Third Party Confidential Information”). Without limitation of the foregoing, the parties agree that the terms of this Agreement constitute Confidential Information (yet the fact that the parties have entered into the agreement and the general nature of the relationship between the parties is not confidential). This Agreement may be disclosed by the Receiving Party in proper due diligence processes in business transactions in accordance with industry standards and subject to a nondisclosure obligation imposed on the receiving party similar to the obligations in this Agreement. Any confidentiality agreements that the parties may have entered into prior to the execution of this Agreement shall remain in effect and be supplemental to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent of any conflict between the terms of such confidentiality agreements and this Master Customer Agreement, the terms of this Master Customer Agreement shall govern.
b. “Trade Secrets” Defined. “Trade Secret” shall mean information owned or possessed by Disclosing Party, without regard to form, that is disclosed by or on behalf of Disclosing Party to Receiving Party, including but not limited to, technical or non-technical data, a formula, a pattern, a compilation, a program, a device, a method, a technique, a drawing, a process, financial data, financial plans, product plans, or a list of actual or potential customers or suppliers, in any form or format, which is not commonly known by or available to the public and which: (i) derives economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and (ii) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy. Trade Secrets specifically include any Confidential Information satisfying the above criteria.
c. Excluded From “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information does not include any data or information which Receiving Party can demonstrate: (i) was already known to Receiving Party at the time of disclosure; (ii) was independently developed by Receiving Party without reference to Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; (iii) is in the public domain; or (iv) was rightfully disclosed to Receiving Party by a third party without obligation of confidentiality.
d. Prohibition Against Disclosure and Use of Confidential Information & Trade Secrets. During the term of this Agreement, and indefinitely thereafter, Receiving Party will not, except as otherwise expressly directed by Disclosing Party, use, copy, or disclose, or permit any unauthorized person access to, any of Disclosing Party’s Trade Secrets, except as expressly permitted in the Agreement and necessary for accomplishment of activities required hereby. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years after termination of this Agreement (or, if longer, the termination of the last Statement of Work), Receiving Party will not use, copy, or disclose, or permit any unauthorized person access to, Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, except as expressly directed by the Disclosing Party or as permitted in this Agreement and necessary for accomplishment of activities required hereby. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in this Agreement, Customer Confidential Information which becomes integrated into Stratix software and systems and cannot be efficiently deleted shall be taken offline and suppressed and archived so that only the top administrator access level would be able to access such Customer Confidential Information after rights to use or access such Confidential Information cease.
e. Need to Know Basis. Receiving Party agrees that it will disclose Confidential Information or Trade Secrets to its employees or contractors only as reasonably necessary for the performance of Receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Prior to disclosing Confidential Information or Trade Secrets to such employees or contractors, Receiving Party will verify with Disclosing Party that such employees or contractors are subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations as compared to this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Receiving Party shall destroy or return all Confidential Information and Trade Secrets of the Disclosing Party, after consulting Disclosing Party as to the Disclosing Party’s preference for destruction or return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receiving Party may retain an archival copy of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and/or Trade Secrets in order to prove performance of obligations under this Agreement, however, such retained information must not be used and must otherwise be retained and protected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
f. Safeguards Against Disclosure. Receiving Party agrees to use at least the same degree of care to avoid and prevent disclosure of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and Trade Secrets as Receiving Party uses to prevent disclosure of Receiving Party’s Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, or Receiving Party shall exercise a commercially reasonable degree of care, whichever degree of care is higher.
g. Equitable Relief. Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that the misappropriation, unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information or Trade Secrets would cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party. In the event of any breach of any part of this Section by Receiving Party, Disclosing Party shall be entitled to equitable relief, including but not limited to a temporary restraining order, temporary injunction and/or a permanent injunction. The rights of Disclosing Party under this Section are in addition to the rights that Disclosing Party may have under this Agreement, common law or statutory law.
h. Customer Data. “Customer Data” means any data provided by Customer (other than Aggregated Anonymous Data (defined below)), including but not limited to, any personally identifiable information. Customer Data shall be deemed to be Customer Confidential Information and/or Customer Trade Secrets and shall be owned exclusively by Customer.
i. Aggregated Anonymous Data. “Aggregated Anonymous Data” means performance data collected by Stratix pertaining to the delivery of Stratix Services, including device breakage frequency and causes, support call trends, and similar data, where such data is anonymized so that there is no personally identifiable information in such data and/or no Customer specific information in such data. Aggregated Anonymous Data shall constitute Stratix Confidential Information and/or Stratix Trade Secrets and shall be owned exclusively by Stratix; provided, however, that Stratix shall provide a copy of such Aggregated Anonymous Data upon Customer request and such copy shall be independently owned by Customer and constitute Customer Confidential Information and/or Customer Trade Secrets as to such copy.
j. Case Studies. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in this Agreement, Stratix may conduct case studies and publish results, which case studies and results may include Customer Data, as long as such case studies and results are anonymized such that Customer is not identifiable and Customer Data is not identifiable to any individual.
k. Press Releases and References. Stratix may identify in public Customer by name as a client in positive references of the existence of the Stratix-Customer relationship, including but not limited to in press releases.
6. Intellectual Property.
a. Created Works & Pre-Existing Works. As between the parties and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Customer shall own, and Stratix hereby assigns and agrees to assign in the future as necessary, all property (and all rights in registrations and applications related to such property) which is created by Stratix exclusively for Customer pursuant to express written requirements under a Statement of Work and specifically referenced as “Created Works” in such Statement of Work (whether alone or jointly with Customer or a third party) pursuant to this Agreement (“Created Works”), including but not limited to, property subject to protection by intellectual property laws (relating to patents, trademarks and copyrights), laws pertaining to trade secrets or unfair competition, similar laws protecting intangible property (database or information protection laws) and information not protectable by the preceding laws yet otherwise protectable (all of such property being referred to herein as “Intellectual Property”); provided, however, that this assignment and agreement to assign is contingent upon timely payment by Customer of all amounts due under this Agreement. As allowed by law, Created Works shall be “works made for hire.” Stratix retains all rights to works created prior to the execution of this Agreement or created independently of this Agreement which are necessary for Customer to use the Created Works and provided by Stratix to Customer in conjunction with the Created Works (“Pre-Existing Works”), except as to the license to Pre-Existing Works provided by Stratix herein. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in this Agreement, the following shall constitute Pre-Existing Works and Stratix shall be the exclusive owner of the following: all Intellectual Property related to the Stratix Business and the provision of the Stratix Services, and the itrac360 software application (including derivative works related to itrac360).

The parties agree to execute further documents, testify and provide additional information as necessary to effectuate the intent of this Section without further consideration, including executing a separate document confirming or assigning rights as set forth herein for the purpose of any filings with government agencies.
c. License to Created Works and Pre-Existing Works. Pre-Existing Works which are expressly commissioned by Customer pursuant to Section 6(a) (e.g., Stratix intellectual property embedded in any Created Works for Customer) provided by Stratix as Stratix Services pursuant to this Agreement are provided to Customer hereunder in accordance with the Stratix License. The “Stratix License” is a term (during the period of Stratix Services), worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free, license to use the Pre-Existing Works (in object code only form, and not in source code form, where Pre-Existing Works include computer code) to the extent necessary to use any Created Works and/or to receive the Stratix Services for the purpose of Customer’s internal use which includes Customer using such Pre-Existing Works as intended with regards to Customer’s business. Customer may not (i) sublicense its rights to Pre-Existing Works, other than as necessary in the ordinary course of business to use the Created Works or receive the Stratix Services, (ii) assign its rights to such Pre-Existing Works without Stratix’s prior written consent, except in conjunction with a sale of Customer’s business (other than to a Stratix direct competitor), (iii) otherwise reproduce, distribute, display or make derivative works from the Pre-Existing Works. Timely payment by Customer is a condition precedent to the Customer’s rights to the Stratix License, and in the event of late payment by Customer, Stratix may immediately suspend the Stratix License, in addition to taking any other actions permitted by contract or law. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, Created Works do not include updates, modifications, new releases or patches made outside of any services obligations under this Agreement or any statement of work related hereto
d. Third Party Intellectual Property. As part of Stratix Services, Stratix may purchase on Customer’s behalf third party goods or services in accordance with the terms of a Statements of Work where such goods or services contemplate the use of third party Intellectual Property (“Third Party Intellectual Property”). All Third Party Intellectual Property shall be licensed or provided to Customer via terms and conditions provided by such third party, and such terms and conditions (as to such Third Party Intellectual Property) shall govern over any terms set forth in this Agreement or any Statement of Work. As an illustration, when Stratix procures mobile devices for Customer, the mobile device supplier provides the terms and conditions which govern the firmware on the device and any license to the firmware shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions provided by the supplier.

Stratix shall pass on any third party warranties related to goods (including third party software) or services purchased by Stratix for Customer, to the extent allowed by the supplier of such goods or services. Customer hereby holds Stratix and its officers, directors, and Personnel harmless from any third party representations or warranties, the acts or omissions of third parties providing goods or services, and from any issues arising out of or related to such third party goods or services.
