Subscription Plan charges; (ii) any in-app purchases; (iii) any and all

usage information in a format of its choice, which may change from time to
time.
All fees, prices, and other charges
mentioned in the Agreement shall be exclusive of all value-added taxes. If

invoiced to the Customer, unless the Customer provides Hexagon with a timely
and valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the competent taxing
authority.
The Customer shall make all payments
free of deductions of any kind, such as (but not necessarily limited to)
discounts, expenses, taxes, and dues. A payment shall only be deemed to be made when it has been made in full.
The Customer shall not set off any
payment due against any counterclaim and the Customer shall not be entitled to
withhold payment on the grounds of any complaint or other claim, unless the
Customer’s counterclaim is accepted by Hexagon or has been finally decided by a
competent court or arbitral tribunal.
Upon expiry of the agreed date of
payment, the Customer shall be deemed in default. All consequential costs due

Either party may terminate the
Agreement by providing a prior notice of termination to the other party at
least 30 days prior to the end of the then-current term.
The Agreement may be terminated for
cause:
a) immediately by either party if proceedings are
initiated for the other party’s liquidation or insolvency or a negotiated
settlement with the other party’s creditors is concluded or an assignment is
made on behalf of the other party for the benefit of creditors;
b) by either party in case of breach of the
Agreement by the other party, if the breach has not been stopped or removed

three consecutive months as specified in Section 19;

confidential information of like kind, but in no event less than reasonable
care, to (i) not use any Confidential Information of Hexagon for any purpose
outside the scope of this Agreement and (ii) except as otherwise authorized by
Hexagon in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of Hexagon to
those of its and its affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access

obligations with the Customer not materially less protective than those herein.
The Customer shall destroy Confidential Information in its possession upon
termination of this Agreement.
The Customer may disclose
Confidential Information of Hexagon to the extent compelled by law to do so,
provided the Customer gives Hexagon prior notice of the compelled disclosure
(to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at Hexagon’s cost,
if Hexagon wishes to contest the disclosure.
The Customer’s use of HxDR and any
HxDR Content is entirely at its own risk and HxDR as well as all HxDR Content
are provided “as is” and “as available”. Unless otherwise

Any representations and warranties
regarding the quality and geometrical accuracy of Customer Content shall only
apply if and to the extent such Customer Content was obtained with Hexagon
equipment (see Section 9.2) and was obtained and processed by qualified
personnel and suitable state of the art equipment.
To the maximum extent permitted by
law, Hexagon explicitly excludes any representations and warranties as to the
quality, correctness, accuracy, reliability and fitness for a particular
purpose of any Third Party Content (see Section 6.4).
In case any representations or
warranties explicitly specified in the Agreement are not met by Hexagon, the
Customer has the right to request Hexagon to cure the defect within a
reasonable period of time of at least 14 days. If Hexagon fails to cure the
defect on the second independent attempt, as the sole and exclusive remedies
the Customer has the right to (i) terminate the Agreement with immediate effect
(see Section 14.2f), and/or (ii) claim damages for any direct damage caused by
