Software License Agreement

SCHEDULE 1

MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT SERVICES

Description of Maintenance Services

  • SpatialNetworX shall provide maintenance services for the Software as described herein (“Maintenance Services”) to Customer during the first year of this Agreement, which shall commence upon the effective date of this Agreement (the “Maintenance Term”), for the maintenance fee as specified on the applicable order (“Maintenance Fee”). The Maintenance Term shall automatically renew for successive periods of one (1) year unless either party advises the other in writing not less than ninety (90) days prior to completion of the then-current term that the Agreement will not automatically continue. In respect of any such automatic period of renewal the Customer shall continue to be obliged to pay the Maintenance Fee at the rate prevailing at the time of renewal. Payment of the Maintenance Fee for each renewal term shall be made in full prior to the commencement of such renewal term.
  • During all Maintenance Periods where Customer requests such service and has paid the requisite Maintenance Fees herein, SpatialNetworX shall provide Maintenance Services, available 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. MST, Monday through Friday, excluding published public and/or company observed holidays (“Maintenance Hours”). As part of these Maintenance Services, SpatialNetworX shall provide an adequate number of qualified personnel to perform and support the Maintenance Services on SpatialNetworX’ behalf. SpatialNetworX shall respond to all requests for support in accordance with the response guidelines set forth below in paragraph(f).
  • The Maintenance and Support Services shall apply to the current version of the Software and up to two minor versions prior to the most recent release. For the purposes of this Agreement a “Minor Version” shall be a release designated by a change to the first number to the right of a decimal in the release number. Support of any other versions of the Software is not guaranteed and is at SpatialNetworX’ sole discretion. SpatialNetworX shall use its best efforts to correct any errors in the Software which cause it to deviate from the specifications for the Software contained in the Documentation (“Errors”) in accordance with the Response Times set forth below in Section (f). SpatialNetworX will investigate and correct suspected Errors in the Software at its office to the extent possible. If SpatialNetworX travels to Customer’s place of business at the request of Customer, Customer will pay SpatialNetworX for the reasonable and direct travel and other out-of-pocket expenses of SpatialNetworX personnel. If it is determined that a suspected error is attributable to a cause other than an Error in the Software, then Customer shall pay for SpatialNetworX’ work on a time and materials basis at SpatialNetworX’ standard published software services rates.
  • During the Initial Maintenance Period and all subsequent Maintenance Periods, SpatialNetworX at its sole discretion will provide Customer Updates for the Software. SpatialNetworX shall provide such Updates to Customer upon their general release. Upon completion of installation of any Updates, SpatialNetworX shall provide Maintenance Services for such Updates under this Agreement.
  • Customer will submit support request notifications via SpatialNetworX’ prescribed on-line Support Portal. Customer will provide a description of the Error and the severity of the Error to SpatialNetworX, stating the circumstances that lead to the severity condition. The actual severity level may be re-determined by the mutual agreement of the parties during the Error resolution process. The incident report shall contain, to the extent known, applicable and/or possible: (i) the name of the Software, the version or release number; (ii) client or server OS and version; (iii) RDBMS type and version; (iv) Customer contact name, email address if available, telephone number and fax number; (v) the nature of the Error and a description of the Error; and (vi) Customer's classification of the severity of the Error. Customer will provide SpatialNetworX with as much information and access to systems as possible to enable SpatialNetworX to investigate and attempt to identify and verify the reported Error issue. Customer will work with SpatialNetworX support personnel during the Error isolation process, as reasonably needed.
  • Subject to Schedule 1 (b), SpatialNetworX shall provide an initial response to Customer regarding Errors with the Software and shall seek a resolution of such Errors based upon the severity of the Error according to the following schedule:

SpatialSUITE LIFECYCLE AND END-OF-LIFE POLICY

SpatialNetworX provides support and maintenance during the stated time periods for each of the releases of SpatialSUITE - the "Product Lifecycle".

The lifecycle allows customers and partners to plan, deploy, and support SpatialSUITE effectively. The lifecycle period is counted from the initial version release date - referred to as the general availability (GA). It is additionally defined by the number of major or minor release versions after GA. SpatialNetworX provides this lifecycle schedule for transparency and planning purposes but may make exceptions from this policy if conflicts arise.

DEFINITIONS

  • spatialSUITE refers to all separately licensed applications: spatialNET, spatialNET2 (BricsCAD version), spatialSTORM, spatialHINDSIGHT, spatialOFFLINE, spatialWEB, spatialINSIGHT - Enterprise (all modules), spatialINSIGHT – Foundation, spatialINSIGHT -Planning, spatialINSIGHT – Migration and Loaders, spatialINSIGHT-Metrics, spatialSDK, spatialOFFICE, spatialMOBILE, spatialCAD, spatialOFFICE – Cyclomedia Plugin.
  • The Major version release is identified by the first digit of the version. E.g. 7.0, 8.0, 9.0.
  • A Minor version shall be a release designated by change to the first number to the right of a decimal in the release number. For instance, releases 8.5.1 and 8.5.2 are minor version release of 8.5.0.
  • A product update means patches, additions, modifications, and new versions of the Software incorporating such patches, additions, and modifications that are provided to Customers by SpatialNetworX and that are not included in the initial delivery of the Software. Updates do not include additions or modifications that SpatialNetworX considers to be a separate product or for which SpatialNetworX charges its customers extra or separately. Any update may be released independent of customer reported issues.
  • A critical issue is a bug present in the latest GA version of a product for which there is no suitable work-around and which materially prevents use of that product.

 

LIFECYCLE STAGES

SpatialNetworX recognizes 3 lifecycle stages for all SpatialSUITE:

Standard – Two minor versions prior to the most recent release.

Extended – Three or more minor versions prior to the most recent release. Versions in extended lifecycle are only updated at SpatialNetworX’ discretion via a commercial agreement.

End of Life - Products in End-of-Life status are no longer supported.

 

SOFTWARE UPDATE POLICY

UPDATE AVAILABILITY

  • Product updates, regardless of lifecycle state (Standard or Extended), shall only be available to customers current on annual Maintenance and Support fee obligations.

    DURING STANDARD STAGE
  • Enhancement requests. 
    Provided at SpatialNetworX' discretion and delivered in a future planned release according to their priority relative to other enhancements, issues, security updates, and features. Enhancements are not back-patched to old releases.

  • Critical Issues Resolution. SpatialNetworX aims to prioritize updates for critical issues in the next release. If explicitly requested, and at SpatialNetworX’ discretion, a product update for a critical issue may additionally be delivered as part of a patch on the customers current release or most recent GA release. If SpatialNetworX determines a product update is required for a non-critical issue, the update will be prioritized relative to other issues, security updates, enhancements, and features.

DURING EXTENDED STAGE

  • Enhancement requests. Provided at SpatialNetworX' discretion and only delivered pursuant to a commercial agreement.
  • Critical Issues Resolution. Most bugs present in an old release will be resolved either via workaround or by upgrading to the latest GA release. However, if explicitly requested, and at SpatialNetworX’ discretion, a product update for a critical issue may be delivered, provided every possible avenue for upgrading to an updated Standard Support release has been exhausted by the customer. Hotfix/patches will only be delivered pursuant to a commercial agreement.

AT END-OF-LIFE (AFTER ENHANCED STAGE)

  • Only available via upgraded to current GA product.

 

TIMING OF FIXES FOR ISSUES AND VULNERABILITIES

DURING STANDARD STAGE

  • Customers can request problem investigation for any issue or security vulnerability.
  • SpatialNetworX will target the fixing of critical bugs or critical security vulnerabilities in the next planned release. Most SpatialNetworX products release at least once per year.
  • If explicitly requested, and at SpatialNetworX’ discretion, a critical issue resolution or critical security update may be delivered as part of a hotfix/patch on the most recent GA release.

DURING EXTENDED STAGE

  • Customers can request problem investigation for any critical issue or critical security vulnerability.
  • SpatialNetworX may provide hotfixes for critical issues or critical security vulnerabilities at its discretion, provided that every possible avenue for upgrading to an updated most recent GA release has been exhausted by the customer.

 

AT END-OF-LIFE (AFTER ENHANCED STAGE)

  • Updates are not available.
