This Services Subscription Agreement (the “Agreement“) is made between Revinate, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Revinate“) and each party (a “Customer“) that executes a Service Order (“Service Order”) for Revinate’s hospitality management services (the “Services“).

The Service Order lists the Services start date and the initial term of the Customer’s subscription. Except as otherwise set forth on a Service Order, this Agreement will automatically renew for a period equal to the initial term unless either party notifies the other in writing of its intent not to renew at least 30 days prior to expiration of the then-current term. Following full execution of the Service Order, Customer may use the Services in accordance with the terms in the Service Order and the other provisions of this Agreement.

1.2           Orders by Affiliates and Property Managers. Customer’s Affiliates may, upon executing a new Service Order and agreeing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement use the Services identified in that Service Order. Upon execution of a Service Order by Revinate and an Affiliate, the Affiliate will be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as if it was an original party hereto. “Affiliate” means: (a) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with a party to this Agreement at any time during the term of this Agreement, for so long as such ownership and control exists, provided such entity is not a competitor to Revinate or in the business of developing and offering products or technologies that are substantially similar to the Services, or (b) a property management company (“Manager“) that has negotiated an agreement with Revinate to provide Services to multiple properties that it manages, which may be owned by third parties.

5.2           What Revinate Owns. The Services (including all Revinate software, Third-Party Content and Revinate Confidential Information used to provide the Services) belong to Revinate and its licensors (if any). Even if the terms “purchase” and “sale” are used, Customer does not receive ownership rights in the Services and has only those license and use rights in this Agreement.

5.3           What Customer Owns. Customer Data and other Customer Confidential Information belong to Customer (or its guests and other third parties, if applicable). Nothing in this Agreement assigns any rights in that information from Customer to Revinate.

6              Confidentiality

6.1          Confidential Information. Unless information is deemed non-confidential under the following paragraph, all information disclosed by either party to the other during the term of this Agreement, whether in oral, written, graphic, or electronic form, is considered “Confidential Information“.

9.2           By Revinate. Revinate will defend or settle any Claims against Customer and its Indemnitees where the third party expressly asserts that: ( the Services infringe such third party’s trademark or copyright arising under the laws of the United States, or Revinate misappropriated such third party’s trade secrets in the development of Revinate’s software. Revinate will conduct the defense of any such Claim, any related proceedings and actions, and all negotiations for settlement or compromise of the same. Customer may participate in the defense of any such Claim and any related proceedings and actions at Customer’s expense.

9.3           Indemnification Process. Promptly after a party seeking indemnification obtains knowledge of the existence or commencement of a Claim, the party to be indemnified will notify the other party of the Claim in writing; provided however, that the indemnifying party’s indemnity obligations will be waived only if and to the extent that its ability to conduct the defense are materially prejudiced by the indemnified party’s failure to give notice.
