If you are purchasing the SaaS Authorization option, i.e., the right to use THE AFM HUB in a SaaS Mode (as defined below), then, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, AFM hereby grants to you a non-exclusive, limited license to install, use and execute a single copy of the Software on the Designated System, and to use the documentation furnished by AFM in conjunction with it, for your internal business use and in connection with commercial purposes and uses, including without limitation providing services to your customers, such as hosting the copy of the Software on a server to offer “Software as a Service” services. For purposes of this Agreement, “SaaS Mode” shall mean the use of THE AFM HUB in a “Software as a Service” mode, in which you retain possession and control of your copy of the Software on the Designated System but have the ability to grant a third-party customer access to the Software to enable such customer to generate or deliver data, reports or other business value for such customer, whether through use of AFM’s specific software applications in the Software, or through use of your own proprietary software applications, views and reports created by you, but based upon the features and capabilities of the Software. You may not grant any rights to any customer to access or use the Software in any manner that is outside the scope of or not permitted under this Agreement and you shall remain solely responsible for, and liable to, AFM for your customers’ access and use of the Software.

1.2 Restrictions. You may transfer and use the Software on a backup computer system you own or lease if, and only for so long as, the Designated System is (i) inoperative or (ii) unavailable due to regularly scheduled maintenance, upon issuance by AFM of a backup license key. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Software” shall be deemed to include the application program interfaces (“APIs”), and related source code, as well as source code for the purposes of creating, editing, producing or making rules, relevant databases or analytic libraries or similar applications for use in connection with the Software (the “Example Code”) and software owned by third parties (“Third Party Software”) that are provided to you along with the AFM THE AFM HUB software.

1.4 Rights for Purchasers of THE AFM HUB SaaS Authorized Licenses Conditioned Upon Maintenance Agreement and Payments. If you are purchasing the SaaS Authorization option, then the rights granted to you, and AFM’s obligations, under this Agreement are conditioned upon (1) the prior execution of a separate maintenance agreement with respect to the Software (“Maintenance Agreement”) by both you and AFM or its designee; and (2) timely payment of annual maintenance fees (“Annual Maintenance Fees”) under the Maintenance Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, failure to timely pay the Annual Maintenance Fees under the Maintenance Agreement shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, which may result in termination of this Agreement under Section 10.2 herein, regardless of whether such nonpayment is deemed a breach of the Maintenance Agreement.

2. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, YOU SHALL (I) USE ALL COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT YOUR EMPLOYEES COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT; (II) NOT MODIFY, ENHANCE, DECRYPT, EXTRACT, ADAPT, TRANSLATE, ALTER, DELETE, DISASSEMBLE, DECOMPILE OR OTHERWISE REVERSE ENGINEER THE SOFTWARE OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR ANY APPLICATION ENABLER OR GRANT ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY THE RIGHT TO DO SO OR TAKE ANY ACTION THAT WOULD ASSIST ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY IN DOING SO AND WILL PROMPTLY NOTIFY AFM OF ANY INFORMATION THAT ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY IS OR IS ATTEMPTING TO COPY, REVERSE ENGINEER, DISASSEMBLE, DECOMPILE, TRANSLATE OR MODIFY THE SOFTWARE ; (III) NOT INSERT, DELETE, REPLACE, CHANGE OR OTHERWISE ALTER ANY FILES IN THE SOFTWARE OR APPLICATION ENABLER; (IV) NOT MODIFY, CHANGE, PREPARE DERIVATIVE WORKS OF OR OTHERWISE ALTER ANY BINARY CODE FILES INCLUDED WITH THE SOFTWARE; (V) NOT LOAN, RENT, LEASE, GIVE, SUBLICENSE, TRANSFER, PUBLISH, DISCLOSE, DISPLAY, PROVIDE ACCESS TO, OR OTHERWISE MAKE AVAILABLE THE SOFTWARE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY OR ENTITY, PROVIDED THAT, FOR PURCHASERS OF THE THE AFM HUB BASE LICENSE ONLY, YOU MAY PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE OBJECT CODE OF THE SOFTWARE TO YOUR CUSTOMERS (WITH NO RIGHT TO SUBLICENSE), AS LONG AS SUCH PERMITTED USAGE SHALL NOT OTHERWISE VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND YOU SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD AFM HARMLESS FROM, ANY SUCH USAGE; (VI) NOT MODIFY ANY APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE, INCLUDING MODIFYING ANY APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE BY CREATING ADDITIONAL CLASSES WITHIN ANY INTERFACE OR OTHERWISE CAUSING THE ADDITION TO OR MODIFICATION OF THE CLASSES IN AN INTERFACE, (VII) NOT INCORPORATE ANY CODE INCLUDED WITH THE SOFTWARE OR ANY DOCUMENTATION IN ANY DEVELOPER PRODUCT, AND (VIII) OBTAIN AND MAINTAIN, AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE, ALL COMPUTER HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, AND OTHER COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT NECESSARY TO USE THE SOFTWARE.

3.2 If you are purchasing a standard THE AFM HUB end user license, then you may purchase maintenance services for the Software from AFM or its resellers under a separate Maintenance Agreement.

3.3 Any maintenance services may include providing you with regular updates, software corrections, bug fixes, and new functionality to the Software, which may include service packs to correct defects and add functionality (collectively, “Updates”). Any such Updates provided to you are and shall remain the exclusive property of AFM. Such Updates shall be considered Software, and subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement.

4. FEES.

The license fees paid by you to AFM or its designee are paid in consideration of the rights granted under this Agreement.

4.1 Restrictions on Points-Based License Fees. The license fee charged to you in connection with your use of the Software is based upon the capacity of the Software as measured by "Points" (“Points-Based License Fee”). A Point models a sensor, actuator, or setpoint or any similar item for which you want to collect data. Any database record with historical trend data associated with it, or that utilizes the Software’s Connector Framework to read or write data values, is considered a “Point” for purposes of this Agreement.

4.1.1 Accessing Data Without Creating Points. It is specifically prohibited to utilize the Software’s functionality to read or write data values without creating database records for the Points associated with the external data source, thereby bypassing the Points-based Licensing mechanism.

4.1.2 Deleting Points to Regain License Capacity. As a licensed user, the Software allows you to delete Points thereby regaining capacity as measured by the Points- Based License Fee. The ability to delete Points to regain capacity is specifically authorized for use where Points are no longer being used with the Software. The capacity regained may be used with new Points (up to the limit of Points authorized under your license), but not for Points that you have previously created and for which you received beneficial use and then deleted. Should you have questions on the authorized use of your ability to delete Points to regain license capacity, please contact AFM at info@AFM.com
