  • Master Software, SaaS and Services Agreement

    This Master Software, SaaS and Services Agreement (together with any applicable addendum, this “Agreement”) is entered into between ZOLL Data Systems, Inc. ("ZOLL") and Customer (as defined in any Order referencing this Agreement) as of the Effective Date of the first Order referencing this Agreement.

    1. Services

    ZOLL will provide on-premises software (including any code, program or module) (“Software”), software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) or Professional Services or Maintenance Services (“Services”) described in each fully executed order or statement of work (each, an “Order”) issued under this Agreement. This Agreement will govern all Software, SaaS and Services provided to Customer during the term of this Agreement.

    2. Term

    he term of this Agreement (“Term”) will be from the Effective Date until the expiration or termination of the last effective Order executed under this Agreement, unless terminated earlier for cause. Unless otherwise specified in an Order, each Order will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis following expiration of its Initial Term (as defined in such Order), unless terminated as set forth herein.

    3. Termination

    1. Termination for Convenience. A party may terminate any Order issued pursuant to this Agreement without cause with thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other party.
    2. Termination for Cause. A party may terminate any Order issued pursuant to this Agreement for cause if (I) the other party has breached any material term or condition of that Order or this Agreement and (II) such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice of breach to the breaching party.
    3. Effects of Termination.
      1. Early Termination Fee. If any Order is terminated by Customer without cause or by ZOLL for cause during its Initial Term, then Customer will immediately pay ZOLL an early termination fee equal to the total Fees payable by Customer during the Initial Term less the total Fees paid by Customer prior to the effective date of termination.
      2. General. Upon expiration or termination of any Order: (a) Customer’s (1) license to Software (excluding Software subject to a perpetual license) and (2) right to access or use SaaS or Services, including associated user guides or operating manuals (“Documentation”), listed in such Order, will immediately terminate; and (b) Customer will return or destroy all copies of Software (excluding Software subject to a perpetual license) and Documentation listed in such Order in Customer’s possession or control. The foregoing sentence will also apply to Software subject to a perpetual license if the applicable Order is terminated for cause by ZOLL as a result of Customer’s material breach of Section 6 (Intellectual Property) or failure to provide payment in full for Software.

    4. Confidentiality

    1. Confidential Information.Confidential Informationmeans any information, technical data, or know-how, including, without limitation, information relating to software, products, services, customers, personnel, markets, research, intellectual property, inventions, processes, designs, marketing, future business strategies, trade secrets, finances and other nonpublic information of the disclosing party, including the details of this Agreement and any Order under this Agreement.
    2. Non-Confidential Information. Confidential Information does not include information that the receiving party can establish: (I) was lawfully known by the receiving party prior to its disclosure by the disclosing party; (II) is, or becomes, generally known to the public without breach of this Agreement; (III) is obtained by the receiving party in good faith from a third party without any communicated confidentiality obligation; or (IV) is independently developed by the receiving Party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.
    3. Non-Disclosure. The receiving party will use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information only for purposes of this Agreement and applicable Orders under this Agreement and will not disclose it to any person or entity other than its or its Affiliates’ employees, directors, contractors, consultants, service providers, counsel or agents who have a reasonable need to know such information and who are bound by at least equivalent obligations of confidentiality and non-disclosure as those under this Agreement (such recipients being “Authorized Recipients”). Users (as defined below) and any third party authorized by Customer to receive Customer’s Confidential Information are Authorized Recipients of Customer. “Affiliates” means any corporate entity that, directly or indirectly, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, a party. The receiving party is responsible for the compliance of its Authorized Recipients with the confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations of this Agreement. The receiving party will use the same standard of care to protect the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own similar confidential and proprietary information, but no less than reasonable care. Notwithstanding the non-disclosure requirements of this section, Customer authorizes ZOLL to refer to Customer as a customer and use Customer’s name and logo in such references. Each party agrees that damages will not be adequate to protect the other party in the event of an actual or threatened breach of the confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations of this Agreement and that either party may take equitable action, including seeking injunctive relief, to enforce such obligations.
    4. Legal Disclosure. If it becomes necessary for the receiving party to disclose any Confidential Information to enforce this Agreement or comply with a judicial or administrative proceeding (or equivalent process), the receiving party will, to the extent legally permitted, provide the disclosing party with prompt written notice so the disclosing party may, at the disclosing party’s expense, seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy to protect such information. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the receiving party will not be in breach of this Agreement by furnishing such Confidential Information as required. Prior to disclosing any patient information, protected health information or personal identifiable information to ZOLL, Customer will obtain the legal right to disclose such information to ZOLL.

    5. Use of Software, SaaS and Services

    ZOLL will perform Services in a professional and workmanlike manner using qualified personnel in accordance with each Order. Customer will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to its use of Software, SaaS or Services, including complying with, and notifying ZOLL of, export and import control laws and regulations applicable to Customer. Customer will implement and maintain industry standard administrative, technical and security standards or safeguards designed to ensure the security and confidentiality of Software or SaaS that Customer receives from ZOLL. ZOLL may suspend access to Software or SaaS if ZOLL determines, in its reasonable discretion, that Customer has failed to comply with applicable law or implement or maintain such standards or safeguards until Customer complies with applicable law or implements and maintains such standards or safeguards, as applicable. Customer is responsible for the procurement, maintenance, performance and security of any network, connection, service or device not provided or managed by ZOLL. Customer agrees to use current operating systems and browsers that support protocols and procedures accepted by ZOLL. In connection with this Agreement, Customer will reasonably and timely cooperate with ZOLL, including providing ZOLL with access to Customer’s equipment, software and data, including remote access, necessary for the implementation and operation of Software and SaaS or performance of Services. Customer will not require ZOLL to comply with additional contractual or policy requirements not already contained in this Agreement or the applicable Order in order to receive such access. ZOLL will provide Customer with the specifications of available remote access methods, and Customer will be responsible for the costs associated with any selected method. Customer agrees not to use Software or SaaS in excess of its authorized login protocols. Customer will immediately notify ZOLL of any unauthorized access to or use of Software or SaaS, Customer’s login ID, password or account or other breach of security.

To the extent Customer acquires any rights in Software, SaaS, Services, Documentation or any other information or materials related to Software, SaaS or Services, including any derivative work created by Customer, by operation of law despite the terms of this Agreement, Customer hereby assigns those rights to ZOLL and agrees to take such further actions as necessary to give effect to this section.
    2. Restrictions.

Customer grants to ZOLL and its Affiliates a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use, distribute, disclose, make and incorporate into its Software, SaaS or Services any suggestion, enhancement request, recommendation, correction or other feedback relating to the operation of Software, SaaS or Services provided by Customer or its Users. “User” means Customer’s or its Affiliates’ employees, directors, principals, partners, consultants or agents authorized to use Software, SaaS or Services on behalf of Customer and registered and approved by ZOLL, in ZOLL’s sole discretion, for such use in accordance with ZOLL’s procedures.

    7. Users

    Users may utilize Software, SaaS, Services and Documentation to the same extent Customer is allowed to use and benefit from such Software, SaaS, Services and Documentation; provided that: (A) each User’s use of, or benefit from, Software, SaaS, Services and Documentation will be subject to all applicable terms, conditions and limitations (including aggregate usage limitations) of this Agreement and each applicable Order; (B) Customer, as the signatory to this Agreement, will be responsible for each User’s compliance with the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement; and (C) ZOLL, in its sole discretion, may require certain Users (for example, third-party billing service providers, hospitals or EMS agencies) and Customer to sign ZOLL’s third-party access and use form prior to ZOLL granting such User access to the applicable Software, SaaS, Services or Documentation.

    8. Indemnification

    1. ZOLL. ZOLL will defend any action against Customer or its agents, officers, directors, or employees (the “Customer Parties”) brought by a third party alleging that Software, SaaS or Services infringe any U.S. patents or copyrights or misappropriate any trade secrets of a third party and will indemnify and hold the Customer Parties harmless from those costs and damages finally awarded against the Customer Parties in any such action that are specifically attributable to such claim or those costs and damages agreed to by ZOLL in a monetary settlement of such action. The foregoing obligations are conditioned on Customer: (I) promptly notifying ZOLL in writing of such claim or action; (II) giving ZOLL sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations; and (III) cooperating with ZOLL and, at ZOLL’s request and expense, assisting in such defense. ZOLL will not enter into any settlement that imposes any legal liability or financial obligation on Customer without Customer’s prior written consent. Customer will have the right, at its option, to participate in the settlement or defense of the claim, with its own counsel and at its own expense. If any Software, SaaS or Services become, or in ZOLL’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement claim, ZOLL may, at its sole option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using it; (b) modify it, or replace it with a substantially similar software or service, so that it becomes non-infringing; (c) in the case of Software subject to a perpetual license, require its return and refund Customer a pro-rata portion of the Fees for such Software based on a thirty-six (36)-month straight-line depreciation; or (d) terminate the applicable Order, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ZOLL will have no indemnification or other obligation hereunder with respect to any infringement claim to the extent based upon: (1) use of Software, SaaS or Services not in accordance with this Agreement or the applicable Order; (2) use of Software, SaaS or Services in combination with products, equipment, software, services or data not supplied by ZOLL; (3) the failure of Customer to implement the latest release of, or any replacements, corrections or modifications made available by ZOLL for, Software, SaaS or Services; (4) Customer Content; or (5) any modification of any of Software, SaaS and Services or use thereof by any person other than ZOLL or its authorized agents or subcontractors. This section states ZOLL’s entire liability and Customer’s exclusive remedy for any claims of infringement.
    2. Customer. Customer will defend any action against ZOLL, its Affiliates and their respective agents, officers, directors and employees (the “ZOLL Parties”) and will indemnify and hold the ZOLL Parties harmless from those costs and damages finally awarded against the ZOLL Parties in any such action brought by a third party arising out of or related to: (I) Customer Content; or (II) the Customer Parties’ or its Users use of Software, SaaS or Services allegedly in violation of the Agreement, Order, Documentation or applicable law. ZOLL will: (a) promptly notify Customer in writing of such claim or action; (b) give Customer sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations; and (c) cooperate with Customer and, at Customer’s request and expense, assist in such defense. Customer will not enter into any settlement that imposes any legal liability or financial obligation on ZOLL without ZOLL’s prior written consent.

    2. ZOLL. ZOLL warrants that Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner. Customer must provide written notice to ZOLL within thirty (30) days of the completion of Services alleged to have been performed inconsistent with this warranty, otherwise this warranty will be void. Customer’s sole remedy and ZOLL’s sole obligation in the event of a breach of this warranty is, at ZOLL’s option, to re-perform Services or refund the amounts paid by Customer for Services that were not as warranted.
    3. DISCLAIMER.

    10. Limitation of Liability

    NEITHER ZOLL, NOR ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS, WILL BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF PROFIT, DATA, BUSINESS OR GOODWILL, COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER ARISING OR ALLEGED.

CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THESE LIMITATIONS REFLECT THE ALLOCATION OF RISK SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT ZOLL WOULD NOT ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS ON ITS LIABILITY. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT THESE LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR IF SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE.

    11. Payments

    1. Billing. Customer will pay ZOLL the fees as set forth in the applicable Order (“Fees”). All payments will be in U.S. dollars unless otherwise agreed by the parties. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the applicable Order, all Fees are nonrefundable, and Customer will pay ZOLL all Fees due under such Order within thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice for such Fees. If any invoiced Fees are past due: (I) such past-due Fees will accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, or the maximum allowed by law, whichever is less; (II) ZOLL, in its sole discretion and not in lieu of any other remedy, may cease providing Software, SaaS and Services, until ZOLL has received payment from Customer for all invoiced and past-due Fees plus accrued interest; and (III) ZOLL, in its sole discretion, may revoke any discounts previously offered to Customer. Customer will pay all expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by ZOLL in connection with the collection of late payments. After the Initial Term set forth in the applicable Order, ZOLL may increase Fees annually.
    2. Taxes. Fees exclude all taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments, including value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes assessable by any jurisdiction (“Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying Taxes assessed in connection with its or its User’s use of Software, SaaS or Services. If ZOLL believes it is legally obligated to invoice Customer for Taxes, ZOLL will include any Taxes as a separate line item on an invoice unless Customer provides ZOLL with a current tax exemption certificate issued by the appropriate taxing authority.
    3. Expenses. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Order, Customer will reimburse ZOLL for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including travel and accommodation expenses) incurred by ZOLL (“Expenses”) in providing Services.
    4. Invoicing. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Order, ZOLL will invoice Customer for Fees approximately as follows:
      1. One-Time Fees—on the Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Order);
      2. Monthly Fees* or Maintenance Fees**—monthly in advance;
      3. Professional Services Fees—on completion of the Professional Services; and
      4. Expenses—as soon as reasonably practicable after such expenses are incurred.
    * Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Order, Monthly Fees will commence on the earlier of (a) the date deployment of Software or SaaS is complete and able to function as described in the warranty for such Software or SaaS (“Deployment Completion Date”) or (b) sixty (60) days after the Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Order) (the “Monthly Fees Commencement Date”). The first invoice for Monthly Fees will include the Monthly Fees for the first and second months and will be prorated to account for any partial month. For Monthly Fees for ZOLL AR Boost (as defined in the SaaS Addendum), emsCharts and Mobile Care Connect, ZOLL may invoice Customer monthly in arrears.
    ** Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Order, Maintenance Fees will commence sixty (60) days following the commencement of any Software Warranty (the "Maintenance Fees Commencement Date"). The first invoice for Maintenance Fees will be prorated to account for any partial quarter.

    12. Professional Services

    1. General. ZOLL will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the professional services set forth in an Order (“Professional Services”), and Customer and ZOLL agree to cooperate in good faith to achieve satisfactory completion of the Professional Services. Customer acknowledges that ZOLL’s performance of the Professional Services is materially dependent on Customer’s cooperation and that timelines for completion of Professional Services are estimates that may be revised due to third parties engaged as part of the Professional Services or Customer’s responsiveness, cooperation and resources. Accordingly, ZOLL will not be liable for any deficiency in the performance of Professional Services to the extent such deficiency results from any acts or omissions of Customer or a third party, including, but not limited to, Customer’s failure to provide the necessary cooperation, access and assistance as required hereunder. Customer will reimburse ZOLL for any reasonable costs incurred by ZOLL in connection with such failure. Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that specifications provided to ZOLL in connection with the Professional Services comply with applicable laws and regulations.
    2. Installations. If Customer (I) fails to schedule installation of Software, SaaS or Services to occur within six (6) months from the Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Order) or (II) postpones or cancels a scheduled installation with less than thirty (30) days’ written notice to ZOLL, then ZOLL may charge, and Customer will pay, an additional installation fee plus any additional costs already incurred (such as a $200 travel change fee to cover increased travel costs as a result of the rescheduling).

    13. General

    1. Assignment. Customer will not assign or transfer this Agreement or any Order, nor its interest, rights or responsibilities under this Agreement or any Order, except with written consent of ZOLL, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.
    2. Notices. All notices under this Agreement must be delivered in writing by email, courier or certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested) to the other party at the applicable email or physical address set forth in the applicable Order and, in the case of ZOLL, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer (or to such other address or person as from time to time provided by such party in accordance with this Section), and will be effective upon receipt.
    3. Governing Law and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado without reference to its choice of law rules. Any action or proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement must be brought in a federal or state court in Denver, Colorado, and each party irrevocably submits to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any such action or proceeding. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.
    4. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted by the court of competent jurisdiction to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.
    5. Independent Contractors. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create or be construed as the existence of a partnership, joint venture, or general agency relationship between the parties.
    6. U.S. Government End Users. If Customer is a branch or agency of the United States Government, the following provision applies: Software, SaaS and Documentation are composed of “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 and if provided hereunder are (I) for acquisition by or on behalf of civilian agencies, consistent with the policy set forth in 48 C.F.R. §12.212; or (II) for acquisition by or on behalf of units of the Department of Defense, consistent with the policies set forth in 48 C.F.R. §227.7202-1 and §227.7202-3. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202-1 through §227.7202-4, as applicable, Customer receives only those rights to Software or SaaS as provided under the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
    7. Third Parties. Customer is solely responsible for, and none of the Fees or Expenses set forth herein will be deemed to cover, any amounts owed to third parties in connection with the use of Software, SaaS and Services, including without limitation, clearinghouse fees. Customer must obtain ZOLL’s prior written consent before engaging a third-party provider (“Third-Party Provider”) to allow third-party software, SaaS or services (“Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services”) to integrate with, receive data from or access Software, SaaS or Services. ZOLL will have no liability for, or in connection with, and makes no representations or warranties with respect to, any Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services, and no Third-Party Provider will be an agent or subcontractor of ZOLL. Customer agrees that to the extent Third-Party Provider sends, receives, maintains or transmits any Customer Content, including without limitation, protected health information (collectively, “Sharing”), or takes any action with respect to Software, SaaS or Services, such Third-Party Provider does so on behalf of Customer and not of ZOLL. If Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services require or result in Sharing Customer Content with a Third-Party Provider, Customer consents to ZOLL and its Affiliates Sharing Customer Content with such Third-Party Provider, and Customer represents and warrants that such Sharing does not violate any agreement, law, regulation or other legal standard. Upon the earlier of: (I) termination of the Third-Party Provider’s need for access to the applicable Software, SaaS or Services or (II) termination of Customer’s agreement with a Third-Party Provider pertaining to Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services, Customer will immediately terminate Third-Party Provider’s access to Software, SaaS and Services and notify ZOLL thereof. To the extent Software, SaaS or Services contain software, services or content owned by a third party for which ZOLL has a license agreement with such third party, Software, SaaS and Services and all rights granted hereunder are expressly limited by and subject to any license agreements ZOLL may have for such software. Customer will promptly reimburse ZOLL for any Fees incurred by ZOLL for Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services after the date of expiration or termination of an Order (such as the remainder of an annual fee charged to ZOLL for such Third-Party Software, SaaS or Services).
    8. Force Majeure. Each party’s failure to perform in a timely manner will be excused to the extent caused by conditions beyond the reasonable control of the affected party that could not have been avoided by reasonable diligence. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, natural disaster, fire, accidents, actions or decrees of governmental bodies, Internet or other communication line failure not the fault of the affected party, strikes, acts of God, pandemics, wars (declared and undeclared), acts of terrorism, riots, embargoes, and civil insurrection, but will not include a lack of funds or insufficiency of resources caused by lack of funds. The affected party will immediately give notice to the other party of such delay and will resume timely performance as soon as such condition is terminated. If the period of force majeure exceeds thirty (30) days from the receipt of notice, the non‑affected party may terminate this Agreement without being in breach of this Agreement.
    9. Entire Agreement; Amendment; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Online Customer Community; Survival. This Agreement, together with the applicable Order, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties regarding the subject hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, and communication, whether written or oral, except agreements at zollonline.com or emscharts.com. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement, including applicable addenda, the applicable Order or any agreement at zollonline.com or emscharts.com, the order of precedence will be as follows: (I) the applicable Order; (II) this Master Software, SaaS and Services Agreement, (III) the Business Associate Addendum; (IV) the Software-as-a-Service Addendum or Software Addendum, as applicable; (V) any other addenda, if applicable; and (VI) agreements at zollonline.com or emscharts.com. Any other representation or agreement, whether written or oral, including but not limited to any purchase order issued by Customer, will be wholly inapplicable to Software, SaaS and Services and will not be binding in any way on ZOLL. The section headings in this Agreement are intended for convenience and reference only and are not intended to define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended or changed except in writing signed by both parties. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion, and any waiver must be in writing and signed by the waiving party. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, the parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative. Neither party will have any obligation to enter into any Order. Customer may participate in ZOLL’s online customer community in accordance with the terms of such community. Except as expressly set forth herein, there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement. Those provisions of this Agreement that may be reasonably interpreted as surviving termination of this Agreement or the survival of which is necessary for the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination hereof including, but not limited to, Section 3.C (Effects of Termination), Section 4 (Confidentiality), Section 5 (Use of Software, SaaS and Services), Section 6 (Intellectual Property), Section 7 (Users), Section 8 (Indemnification), Section 9 (Representations and Warranties), Section 10 (Limitation of Liability), Section 11 (Payments) and Section 13 (General). This Agreement may be signed and delivered electronically and executed in counterparts, each of which will be considered an original, but all of which together will constitute the same instrument.
