11. TERM AND TERMINATION.

  1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and shall govern all Ordering Documents that are agreed by the Parties until this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 11. 
  2. Subscription Term.  Each Subscription purchased by Company commences on the start date specified in the applicable Order Form and continues for the Subscription Term specified therein (the “Initial Term”).  Except as otherwise specified in an Order Form or as terminated pursuant to this Agreement or the applicable Order Form, all Subscriptions shall automatically renew for additional periods equal to twelve (12) months for the same number of Users or Applications, as applicable, as of the end of the prior Subscription (each a “Renewal Term” and, together with the Initial Term, and collectively referred to as the “Subscription Term”), unless either Party gives the other written notice of non-renewal at least 60 days prior to the end of the Subscription Term. The fees charged by Sonatype to Company for any Renewal Term shall be Sonatype’s then-current fees for the Service licensed as part of the Subscription. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or an Ordering Document, in the event Company elects to decrease the number of Users or Scan IDs (as applicable), licensed Products or length of Subscription Term from the prior Subscription Term, this decrease will result in re-pricing of the Service Subscriptions for such Renewal Term without regard to the prior Subscription Term’s per-unit pricing.
  3. Termination. A Party may terminate any Ordering Document and/or this Agreement for cause: (i) upon 30 days written notice to the other Party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, or (ii) if the other Party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. 
  4. Effect of Termination and Expiration.  Neither termination nor expiration of this Agreement will release the Parties from any liability that, at the time of termination or expiration, has already accrued or that thereafter may accrue with respect to any act or omission before termination or expiration, or from any obligation that is expressly stated in this Agreement to survive termination and expiration.  Upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, each Party shall (i) immediately discontinue all access to and use of the other Party’s Confidential Information, including, for purposes of Company, all access to and use of the Services; (ii) delete the other Party’s Confidential Information from its computer storage or any other media, including online and off-line libraries; (iii) return to the other Party or, at the other Party’s option, destroy, all copies of such other Party’s Confidential Information then in its possession; and (iv) promptly pay all amounts due and remaining payable hereunder. Sonatype shall have no obligation to maintain or provide any Company Data and shall, unless legally prohibited, be entitled to delete all Company Data in its systems or otherwise in its possession or under its control. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, termination or expiration of this Agreement, regardless of cause or nature, shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Parties and shall be without liability for any loss or damage occasioned thereby.

Any delay resulting from any such cause shall extend performance accordingly or excuse performance, in whole or in part, as may be reasonable under the circumstances.
