A Service Order is an integral part of these Evaluation Terms and is fully incorporated herein.

1.4. Evaluator acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it is Evaluator’s sole responsibility to update and maintain the Application(s) and/or API(s), including without limitation, fixing any security vulnerabilities revealed by the Services and Reports; (ii) the Reports, including any remedial measures or source code provided therein which may address vulnerabilities, are not guaranteed by Synopsys to show all vulnerabilities in the Application(s) and/or API(s); (iii) it is Evaluator’s sole responsibility to test, vet and confirm that any proposed remedial measures referenced in the Reports or otherwise referenced by Synopsys to Evaluator are appropriate for Evaluator’s purposes; and (iv) Evaluator’s use of the Services does not render or guarantee that the Application(s) and/or API(s) will be invulnerable or free from unauthorized access. Evaluator further acknowledges and agrees that Evaluator’s use of the Services starts on the Effective Date (defined below) and the Evaluator is responsible for providing all configuration data (host names, user accounts, etc.) needed to perform the Services. Failure to provide configuration data does not release Evaluator from any responsibility in these Evaluation Terms. Evaluator acknowledges and agrees that Evaluator’s and its users’ use of the Services is dependent upon access to telecommunications and Internet services. Evaluator shall be solely responsible for acquiring and maintaining all telecommunications and Internet services and other hardware and software required for its access and use of the Services, including, without limitation, any and all costs, fees, expenses, and taxes of any kind related to the foregoing. Synopsys shall not be responsible for any loss or corruption of data, lost communications, or any other loss or damage of any kind arising from any such telecommunications and Internet services.

2.TERM AND TERMINATION. Unless otherwise agreed to between the parties, these Evaluation Terms shall commence on the date set forth on a quote or other order document provided by Synopsys, or if not then on the later of (i) the date Synopsys begins providing the Services and (ii) the date Evaluator accepts these terms online or signs the Service Order (the “Effective Date”), and shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days, or as extended in writing by Synopsys (email notification of extension is acceptable) (the “Term”), unless earlier terminated as set forth herein. Synopsys may, at its option, terminate these Evaluation Terms immediately if Evaluator (i) fails to comply with any terms and conditions of these Evaluation Terms or (ii) uses the Service(s) other than as authorized herein. Sections 3-7 shall survive termination or expiration of these Evaluation Terms.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY.  By virtue of these Evaluation Terms, the parties may have access to each other’s Confidential Information. “Confidential Information,” as used in these Evaluation Terms, means any written, machine-reproducible and/or visual materials that are clearly labeled as proprietary, confidential, or with words of similar meaning, and all information that is orally or visually disclosed, if not so marked, if it is identified as proprietary or confidential at the time of its disclosure or in a writing provided within thirty (30) days after disclosure. Confidential Information does not include information that: (a) is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the receiving party, generally known or available to the public; (b) was acquired by the receiving party before receiving such information from the disclosing party and without restriction as to use or disclosure; (c) is hereafter rightfully furnished to the receiving party by a third party, without restriction as to use or disclosure; or (d) is information which the receiving party can document was independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

Neither party shall disclose any of the other party’s Confidential Information to any third party or use such Confidential Information for any purpose other than to (i) perform its obligations or exercise its rights under these Evaluation Terms; or (ii) as otherwise required by law. Each party shall use the same measures to protect the Confidential Information of the other party as it uses with respect to its own confidential information of like importance, but in no event shall it use less than reasonable care, including, instructing its employees, vendors, agents, consultants and independent contractors of the foregoing and requiring them to be bound by appropriate confidentiality agreements. If a party is required to disclose by law Confidential Information of the other party, such party shall use best efforts to give the other party reasonable advance notice of such required disclosure. Synopsys reserves the right to disclose the terms and conditions of these Evaluation Terms, in confidence, (a) to accountants, banks and financing sources and their advisors for the purpose of securing financing; or (b) in connection with an actual or proposed merger or acquisition or similar transaction. Upon termination or expiration of these Evaluation Terms the receiving party will promptly return to the disclosing party or destroy, at the disclosing party’s option, all tangible items containing or consisting of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

7. GENERAL.   These Evaluation Terms and each Service Order together constitute the entire agreement between Synopsys and Evaluator with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all other prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations and understandings between the parties hereto regarding the subject matter hereof.  Any terms contained in a purchase order or invoice issued by either party in connection with a transaction covered by these Evaluation Terms are null and void.  Where there is a conflict between a Service Order and these Evaluation Terms, the terms contained in the Service Order will take precedence relating to the matter for which there was a conflict.  Any term or provision of these Evaluation Terms or Service Order may be amended, and observance of any provision of these Evaluation Terms or Service Order may be waived, only be a writing signed by the party to be bound; provided that Synopsys reserves the right to unilaterally amend these Evaluation Terms from time to time so long as the Evaluator’s use of the Services is not materially detrimentally impacted.  If any provision of the Evaluation Terms or Service Order is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from the Evaluation Terms or Service Order and the remainder of the Evaluation Terms or Service Order shall be interpreted so as best to reasonably affect the intent of the parties hereto.  All headings in the Evaluation Terms and Service Order are not to be considered in the construction or interpretation of any provision of the Evaluation Terms or Service Order.  The parties are independent contractors, and neither party will have the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other’s behalf without such other party’s prior written consent.  These Evaluation Terms and each Service Order shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without reference to conflicts of laws principles.  The parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in state and federal courts sitting in and for Santa Clara County, California.  Each party reserves the right to seek injunctive relief due to the other party’s actual or threatened breach of the Evaluation Terms or Service Order.  Neither party shall be responsible for any non-performance or delay attributable to any cause beyond its reasonable control (force majeure).  Evaluator may not assign these Evaluation Terms, or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, by operation of law or otherwise, without Synopsys’s prior written consent.  The following provisions shall survive the termination or expiration of a Service Order:  Sections 1.4, 3.2, 3.3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.  Any notice shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand, confirmed email, or overnight express mail to the main contact and/or signatory set forth on a Service Order.  Any executable Service Orders may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.  For the purpose of executing Service Orders under these Evaluation Terms, the parties hereto agree that .pdf signatures sent via email shall serve as original signatures.
