BOTTOMLINE TECHNOLOGIES (DE), INC.

LICENSING AGREEMENT

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING. THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THIS LICENSING AGREEMENT ("AGREEMENT") GOVERN USE OF THE ACCOMPANYING SOFTWARE BY THE BUSINESS OR GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY ("CUSTOMER") WHICH ACQUIRED THE SOFTWARE. INSTALLATION OF THE SOFTWARE FORMS A BINDING AGREEMENT BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND BOTTOMLINE TECHNOLOGIES (DE), INC. ("BOTTOMLINE"). IF CUSTOMER DOES NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT, CONTACT BOTTOMLINE AND DO NOT INSTALL THE SOFTWARE.

The Software may initially be provided with a temporary unlock code or license key ("License Key") that will cause the Software to cease operation after a predetermined period of time. Customer is responsible for obtaining a permanent License Key, at no additional charge to Customer, from Bottomline prior to expiration of the temporary License Key.

  1. Document Precedence.
    1. To the extent that Customer has a legally binding licensing agreement executed by both Customer and Bottomline (an "Executed Licensing Agreement"); the terms of this Agreement are subordinate to the terms and conditions of the Executed Licensing Agreement.
    2. To the extent there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Sales Order issued by Bottomline and signed and executed by a representative of the Customer, the terms and conditions printed on the Sales Order shall take precedence over conflicting provision of this Agreement.
    3. This Agreement and, if applicable the terms printed on the Sales Order and the Executed Licensing Agreement form the entire agreement between Bottomline and Customer governing Customer's use of the Software and Support Services and cancels any previous agreements or understandings, whether oral, written or implied. If a purchase order, sales confirmation, or other document is issued by Customer as part of the transaction pursuant to which Customer acquired the Software, related software, or related services (including Software Support and renewals thereof), and such other document includes any additional or different terms or conditions than these License Terms and, if applicable, the Executed Licensing Agreement and terms printed on the Sales Order, Customer acknowledges and agrees that all such additional or different provisions are of no effect or under any circumstances binding on Bottomline. Provided however, any price, quantity and payment terms specified on a purchase order will perform part of the agreement between Bottomline and Customer to the extent such terms are not inconsistent with these License Terms, the Executed Licensing Agreement, or terms printed on the Sales Order, if any. For the avoidance of doubt, any additional or different terms or conditions contained on any purchase order or other document issued by Customer after the formation of this Agreement, including any purchase order that Customer may issue for the renewal of Software Support are objected to by Bottomline without further notice of objection and shall be of no effect or under any circumstances binding on Bottomline.
  2. Software License.
    1. If Customer has purchased a production server license to the Software (the "Production License"), Bottomline hereby grants to Customer a license to install and use a single active instance of the Software (the "Production System"). An active instance of the Software is a copy of the Software that is in a form available to a processor for operation.
    2. If Customer has purchased a license to C-Series Cash Reporting the quantity of workstations on which the Cash Reporting Client may be concurrently installed is limited to the quantity of Cash Reporting Client licenses purchased by Customer.
    3. If Customer has purchased a production workstation or seat license to the Software (the "Production License"), Bottomline hereby grants to Customer a license to install and use the Software on a single workstation (the "Production System") and access and use the Software product only through the user interface of the Production Workstation, the user interface of any other computer and/or via a network.

    5. If Customer has purchased a disaster recovery license for the Software and each module or component, Customer may install and use the Software, and each module or component for which a disaster recovery license is purchased, on an additional system which is: i) subject to, and compliant with, all limitations and restrictions applicable to the corresponding Production License/Production System and its components or modules; and ii) used solely for backing up the Production System and operating in production only when the Production System is inoperable.
    6. If Customer has purchased a non-production license for the Software and each component or module, Customer may install and use the Software, and each component or module for which a non-production license is purchased, on an system (the "Non Production System") which is: i) subject to, and compliant with, all limitations and restrictions applicable to the corresponding Production License/Production System and its components or modules; and ii) used solely for design, test, and other non-production purposes. No production use or other use for financial benefit is permitted. Provided however, C-Series Software subject to a non-production license may be operated in place of the Production System if the Production System is inoperable. The Non-Production Software shall not be used for real-time back up of the Production System or operated in an environment which provides for automated fail-over to the Non-Production System if the Production System becomes inoperable.
    7. If the Software is licensed by Bottomline on a per-user basis the quantity, and type, of user credential records (i.e. log-in and password) that may be concurrently configured is limited to the quantity, and type, of User Access Licenses acquired by Customer for use with the Production License. Customer is responsible for configuring entitlements for users accessing the Software pursuant to Limited Function User Access Licenses to assure that such users only access the permitted functions.
    8. If the Software is licensed by Bottomline on a per-client basis the Software may be configured to concurrently support a quantity of client systems that does not exceed the quantity of Client Licenses acquired by Customer for use with the Production License.
    9. If the Software is licensed on a per-printer basis, the quantity of defined printer queues/destinations (including virtual printers) may not exceed the quantity of Printer Licenses acquired by Customer for the Production License.
    10. If the Software is licensed on the basis of any parameter, including but not limited to a quantity or type of system, or a quantity or type of business, with which the Software may interoperate, or operate for, then use of the Software as measured by that parameter may not exceed the quantity of licenses to that parameter acquired by Customer.
    11. If Customer has purchased an evaluation license, Customer may use of the Software solely for evaluation until expiration of the License Key which is typically 30 days. No production use or other use for financial benefit is permitted.
    12. Application components and modules, User Access Licenses, Client Licenses, Printer Licenses, and licenses to other parameters are purchased for use with a particular Production License and may not be transferred between different software products or different instances of the same products operating under different Production Licenses.

Bottomline warrants to Customer that the Software will perform substantially in accordance with product documentation in effect at the time of delivery for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of delivery (the "Warranty Period"). Upon written notice of a non-conformity Bottomline will use reasonable efforts to correct such non-conformity during the Warranty Period. If Bottomline is unable, after reasonable efforts, to correct such non-conformity, Customer's sole remedy shall be the refund of the license fees paid by Customer for the non-conforming Software. Bottomline is not obligated to make repair, replace, or correct alleged non-conformities which result, in whole or in part, from improper or unauthorized use of the Software, use of Software in a manner for which it was not designed, or use of Software in combination with software, equipment and /or supplies not supported by Bottomline.

  6. Intellectual Property Indemnification.
    1. Bottomline agrees to defend, at its expense, any suit against Customer based upon a claim that the Software infringes any US patent or copyright, and to pay any settlement, or any damages finally awarded in any such suit. Bottomline's obligations under this section shall not be effective unless Customer:
      1. notifies Bottomline in writing of any claim or threatened or actual suit within 10 days of knowledge thereof;
      2. Customer gives Bottomline full control of the defense and settlement; and
      3. Customer provides full cooperation as requested by Bottomline. Customer may participate in the defense at Customer's expense.

Bottomline may terminate any or all of its obligations, and any software licenses granted to Customer, for any breach by Customer which is not cured within 10 days of receipt of written notice of such breach. Such termination shall be effective immediately upon receipt by Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, termination under this Section does not entitle Customer to a refund of any fees paid.
    4. Upon termination of software licenses, Customer's rights to use the Software shall immediately cease and Customer shall return all copies of Software and related documentation (and copies thereof) to Bottomline. Termination shall not effect Customer's obligation to pay Bottomline for all amounts due and payable pursuant to outstanding invoices (including fees for services that may have been performed and not yet invoiced).
