10.1 Governing Law and Venue

If the laws governing District so require, the laws of the state or commonwealth governing District shall govern all matters arising out of the Agreement, without regard to conflict of law principles, and the federal and state courts located where District is located will have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of disputes arising in connection with the Agreement. In the absence of any such laws governing District, the laws of the State of California govern all matters arising out of the Agreement, without regard to conflict of law principles, and federal courts in the Central District of California and the state courts located in Santa Barbara County, California, will have non-exclusive jurisdiction in respect of disputes arising in connection with the Agreement. The United Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply.

10.2 Severability

The parties to the Agreement are independent contractors and the Agreement will not establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency between the parties. Neither party will have the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other party’s behalf without the other party’s prior written consent.

10.4 Non-exclusive Agreement

The Agreement is nonexclusive, and each party will be free to enter into other similar agreements or arrangements with other third parties.

10.5 High Risk Use

District acknowledges that the Subscription Services are not intended as a substitute for an emergency management system (EMS), and are not designed or intended for use in high risk activities or in any situation where damage or injury could result if an error, disruption, or outage in the Subscription Services occurred. District acknowledges and agrees that its primary recourse in the event of any actual or potential threat to person or property should be to contact emergency response services (including without limitation, 911 or equivalent, fire, police, emergency medical, and public health, collectively, “First Responder Services”) and that the Subscription Services are not intended to replace such First Responder Services, or to be used for communicating with, or replace notification to, or interoperate directly with, such First Responder Services, which should have already been notified and deployed prior to using the Subscription Services.

10.6 Force Majeure

Neither party has any liability for any failure of performance or equipment due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including: acts of God, fire, flood, earthquake, tsunami, storm, or other catastrophes; any law, order, regulation, direction, action, or request of any governmental entity or agency, or any civil or military authority; national emergencies, insurrections, riots, wars, or acts of terrorism; unavailability of rights-of-way or materials; or strikes, lock-outs, work stoppages, or other labor difficulties; or failure of the Internet, third party software, or any telecommunications, hosting, or service provider.

No term or provision of the Agreement will be considered waived by a party, and no breach excused, unless the waiver or consent is in writing signed by such party. No consent by a party to, or waiver of, a breach, whether express or implied, will constitute a consent to, waiver of, or excuse of any other, different, or subsequent breach.

10.8 Change of Control

The Agreement is not assignable by ParentSquare except to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar change of control transaction.

10.9 Construction

The word “including” shall be construed as meaning “including without limitation.” The section headings appearing in this School Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and shall not be construed to define, limit, construe, or describe the scope or extent of such paragraph or in any way affect such section.

10.10 Counterparts and Electronic Signature

The Order Form may be executed simultaneously in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which will be considered an original, and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Order Form (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile signature or by other electronic means, or payment of fees due set forth in an Order Form or a purchase order, shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
