CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT, UNDERSTANDS IT, AND AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS, AND THAT THE PERSON SIGNING ON ITS BEHALF HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO DO SO. THE PERSON EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT ON CUSTOMER’S BEHALF REPRESENTS THAT THEY HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THE CUSTOMER TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

This Master Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered between Neon, LLC, a Delaware company (“Neon”, “we”, “us”) and the customer identified in the applicable Order Form (“Customer”) and is effective as of the date the Order Form is signed (“Effective Date”). By accepting the Order Form in any manner, the Customer accepts this Agreement and other related Contracts. This Agreement governs access to, and use of, the Neon Platform and/or the Services by the Customer and its Authorized Users. Certain capitalized terms are defined in Annex A “Definitions” and others are defined contextually in this Agreement. 

  1. NEON’S PLATFORM AND SCOPE OF SERVICES
    1. Subscription. During the Term, and provided that this Agreement has not been terminated by either Party, and in consideration of the payment of the Fees, the Customer and its Authorised Users may access the Platform and use the Services pursuant and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Order Form. 
    2. Access to the Platform. The Customer will access the Platform and the Services via the Console, Neon APIs, and third-party drivers,  as defined in the Documentation. Each Authorized User will access the Platform via the Console, the Neon API with an API key, or connection strings provided by the Console or Neon API. The Customer may provide access to an Authorized User in any format the Customer deems appropriate as long as it is compatible with Neon’s technical configurations (the “Company User Access“). The Customer shall be responsible for maintaining the records and associations of the API keys and connection strings in the Customer’s environment and systems.
    3. Platform Revisions. Neon may from time to time, in its sole discretion, develop and release certain revisions, upgrades and updates for new features, bug fixes and enhancements on the Platform (the “Updates”) available to the Customer. All Updates will be uploaded/installed automatically without a specific notice sent to the Customer. When Neon introduces paid Updates with greater functionality and/or performance and a higher price than agreed in the Order Form, the Customer will be able to access the paid Updates by paying extra Fees. 
    4. Preview Releases. Neon from time to time may make available to the Customer and its Authorized Users use of certain features, technologies, and services that are not yet generally available, including, but not limited to, any products, services, or features labeled “alpha”, “beta”, “preview”, “pre-release”, or “experimental”, and any related Content (each, a “Beta Service”) or access and use of Services available in regions that are not generally available, including, but not limited to, any regions identified by Neon as “alpha”, “beta”, “preview”, “pre-release”, or “experimental” (each, a “Beta Region”). The Customer and its Authorized Users must comply with all terms related to any Beta Service or Beta Region as posted on the Neon Website or otherwise made available to the Customer and the Authorized Users. Neon may add or modify terms, including lowering or raising any usage limits, related to access to or use of any Beta Services or Beta Regions at any time. Beta Services or Beta Regions may not be covered by customer support and/or service level agreements. Neon may change or discontinue Beta Services and Beta Regions at any time without notice. Neon also may choose not to release Beta Services and Beta Regions into general availability. Beta Services and Beta Regions may be inoperable, incomplete or include features that Neon may never release, and their features and performance information are Neon’s IP. 
    5. Integrated Products. The Platform may include links to other third-party applications, websites, products and services that could be integrated with the Services (the “Integrated Products”). Neon does not endorse any Integrated Products and is not responsible or liable for the behavior, features, or content of any Integrated Products. Neon does not provide Customer with any rights or remedies regarding such Integrated Products. Neon further makes no express or implied warranties regarding the information, material, products, or services that are contained on or accessible through any Integrated Products. Any access or use of an Integrated Product is solely at the Customer’s own risk, directly governed by any agreements and/or policies between the Customer and the applicable third-party provider.
    6. Neon may utilize artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies to enhance user experience and improve Neon Product functionality. Additionally, you acknowledge that the performance of AI functionalities may evolve over time as the technology advances, and Neon reserves the right to update or modify these features accordingly. Your continued use of Neon Products constitutes acceptance of any such updates or modifications.
  2. PAYMENT TERMS  
    1. Fees’ Basis. The Customer shall pay Neon the Fees for the Subscription as specified in the applicable Order Form. The Fees will be based on the functionality, any limitations on the usage capacity, number of Authorised Users, duration of the Subscription service capacity, and features of the Platform available for the Customer, and any other capacity limitations, as may be stated in the specific Order Form. 
    2. Types of Fees. Each Order Form shall set out the types of Fees relating to the Subscription, which generally can be categorized as one or a combination of the following:

The Customer shall commit in advance to purchase a specific quantity of the Services as per agreed rates for use during a Term and to pay upfront or on a periodic basis in advance of use. Additional or other usage (for example, usage beyond the commitment quantity) may be treated as a Consumption Offering as set out below. Committed quantities not used during the Term may not roll over to the next Term unless otherwise agreed in the Order Form.  
      2. Consumption Offering (also called Pay-As-You-Go). The Customer shall pay based on actual usage of the Services in the preceding period under the rates agreed in the respective Order Form with no upfront commitment. Payments will be made on a periodic basis in arrears.
    3. Payment of Fees. The Customer will be invoiced the Fees on an annual basis before the commencement of each billing cycle unless otherwise specified in the Order Form.

    4. Disputable Amounts.

The Customer and Neon shall use reasonable commercial diligence to resolve disputes in a timely manner. Neon shall continue performing its obligations in accordance with this Agreement during resolution of the dispute. All portions of the disputed amount determined to be owed to the Customer shall be refunded within ten (10) calendar days of the dispute resolution.
    5. Taxes. All the Fees are exclusive of, and the Customer is responsible for, applicable federal or national, state or provincial, or local sales, use, excise, export or other applicable taxes, except for taxes on the net income of Neon.

    1. Acceptable Use. The Customer (and all its Authorized Users) shall use Neon in compliance with all applicable laws, this Agreement, Documentation, and the Contracts (as applicable). The Customer’s and/or any Authorized User’s failure to maintain database instances within the support perimeter (as specified in the Documentation) may result in the Service’s failure for which Neon is not responsible. Any customization, copies, and use of any additional software with the Platform and/or the Services may result in the instance falling outside the support perimeter and causing a Service failure for which Neon is not responsible. The Customer (and all of its Authorized Users) is prohibited from: (a) modifying and/or making derivative works of, disassembling, extracting, reverse compiling and/or reverse engineering the source code or any part of the Platform;  (b) reselling, offering, selling, renting, leasing, distributing, assigning and/or otherwise commercially exploiting the Services and/or the Platform for any purposes, in whole or in part, except where specifically permitted by Neon; (c) using and/or accessing the Services and/or the Platform in order to build a similar and/or competitive website, platform, product and/or service or for other benchmarking or competitive purposes; (d) framing or otherwise incorporating the Platform or the Services, or any part of Platform, as part of another website or service; (e) removing and/or destroying any copyright notices and/or other proprietary markings contained in the Platform; (f) taking any action that imposes or may impose (as determined by Neon’s sole and absolute discretion) an unreasonable and/or disproportionately large load on Neon’s and/or our third-party providers’ infrastructure; (g) accessing the Platform by any other means than through the Company User Accesses; (h) providing Platform passwords or other login information to any third party other than Authorized Users; (j) exceeding any usage allowances and service capacity agreed in the applicable Order Form (l) promoting and/or providing information about illegal activities and/or physical harm and/or injury to any group, individual, institution and/or property; and (m) Transferring through the Platform any Prohibited Content except in accordance with Section 3.4 (jointly referred to as the “Prohibited Activities”).
    2. Suspension.

This Agreement does not require that Neon take any action against the Customer or any Authorised User or other third party for violating Section 5.1 or this Agreement, but Neon is free to take any such action it sees fit. Where practicable, Neon will use reasonable efforts to provide the Customer with prior notice of the suspension or blockage. Once the Customer resolves the issue requiring suspension or blockage, Neon will promptly restore Customer’s access to the Platform in accordance with this Agreement.
    3. Users & Platform Access. The Customer shall control access to the Platform by the Authorized Users, and the Customer shall be responsible for their use of the Services in accordance with this Agreement and any applicable law while accessing the Platform and/or using the Services, including without limitation any Authorised User’s conduct that would violate the provisions of Section 5.1 hereof. Any breach of this Agreement caused by an Authorized User when accessing the Platform and/or using the Services will be deemed as a breach by the Customer itself.  
    4. Unauthorized Access. The Customer shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to the Platform. The Customer shall notify Neon immediately of any known or suspected unauthorized use of the Platform or breach of its security and shall use best efforts to stop such a breach.

    6. Public Projects. The Customer acknowledges that it controls who it shares Projects with (including making Projects public). Neon has no liability for how others may access or use the Customer’s Project from a decision to share a Project.
  6. CONFIDENTIALITY
    1. Confidential Information. Definition. “Confidential Information” means (a) terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Order Form and any technical or performance information about the Services that is not publicly available; (b) any Customer Data that is not publicly available; (c) any other information that is disclosed in writing or orally and is designated as confidential or proprietary at the time of disclosure (and, in the case of oral disclosures, summarized in writing within five (5) calendar days of the initial disclosure and delivered to the receiving party), or that due to the nature of the information the receiving party would clearly understand it to be confidential information of the disclosing party. 
    2. Exclusions. Confidential Information shall not include any information that: (a) was or becomes generally known to the public through no fault or breach of this Agreement by the receiving party; (b) was rightfully in the receiving party’s possession at the time of disclosure without restriction on use or disclosure; (c) was independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; or (d) was rightfully obtained by the receiving party from a third party not under a duty of confidentiality and without restriction of use or disclosure.

    3. Restricted Use and Non-disclosure. During and after the Term, the party receiving Confidential Information will: (a) use the Confidential Information of the other party solely for the purpose for which it is provided; (b) not disclose such Confidential Information to a third party, except on a need-to-know basis to its directors, officers, representatives, investors, attorneys, consultants, sub-contractors and service providers who are under confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein; and (c) protect such Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure to the same extent (but using no less than a reasonable degree of care) that it protects its own Confidential Information of a similar nature; provided, however, that a party may disclose such Confidential Information as required by applicable laws, subject to the party required to make such disclosure giving reasonable notice (if legally permitted to do so) to the other party to enable it to contest such order or requirement or limit the scope of such request.
    4. Injunction. Each party agrees that breach of this Section 6 would cause a disclosing Party substantial harm, for which monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation, and that in addition to any other available remedy, a disclosing party will be entitled to appropriate equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach, without proving actual damage or posting a bond or other security.

Except to the extent prohibited by law, Neon disclaims all warranties, including any implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or quiet enjoyment, and any warranties arising out of any course of dealing or usage of trade. Neon’s aggregate liability for any Beta Services and Beta Regions will be limited to the amount of five thousand US dollars (US$5,000). 
  9. INDEMNIFICATIONS  
    1. Neon’s Indemnity. Neon shall defend the Customer and the Customer’s Associates (as defined below) against any and all third-party claims, suits, or proceedings, arising out of or resulting from any allegation that access to the Platform and/or use of the Services in accordance with the Documentation and the Agreement infringes or misappropriates a third party’s IP rights (the “IP Claim”), and will indemnify Customer from and against any damages, attorney fees and costs finally awarded against Customer to the extent they are based upon such IP Claim, or for amounts paid by Customer under a settlement approved in writing by Neon resulting from such IP Claim. The “Customer’s Associates” means the Customer, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, successors, and assigns. 
    2. Neon’s obligations set forth in this Section 9.1 do not apply to the extent that an IP Claim arises out of: (a) Customer’s breach of this Agreement; (b) revisions to the Platform made without Neon’s written consent; (c) use of the Platform in combination with integrated products, hardware or software not provided by Neon; (d) the allegation that does not state with specificity that the Services are the basis of the IP Claim; (e) Customer’s failure to incorporate Updates that would have avoided the alleged infringement, provided such Updates are offered without extra charged in addition to the Fees set forth in the Order Form.
    3. Customer’s Indemnity. The Customer shall defend Neon and the Neon Associates (as defined below) against any and all third-party claims, suits, or proceedings, arising out of or resulting from Transfer of the Prohibited Content through the Platform (“Claim Against Neon”), and will indemnify Neon and the Neon Associates from and against any damages, attorney fees and costs finally awarded against Neon or the Neon Associates to the extent they are based upon such Claim Against Neon, or for amounts paid by Neon or the Neon Associates under a settlement approved by Customer in writing resulting from such Claim Against Neon. “Neon’s Associates” means Neon, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, successors, and assigns.  
    4. Indemnified Claims’ Procedure. The obligations of each party in the capacity of the indemnifying party within the meaning of Section 9.1 and 9.3 respectively are subject to the following: (i) the indemnified party shall provide the indemnifying party with prompt written notice of the third party claim or action (but late notice will relieve the indemnifying party of its obligation to indemnify only to the extent that it has been prejudiced by the delay); (ii) the indemnifying party shall have the option of assuming control over the defence and/or settlement of such claim; (iii) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party as reasonably requested; provided, however, that such cooperation is at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense; and (iv) the indemnifying party shall not settle any claim or action on behalf of the indemnified party without first notifying the indemnified party of all details related to such settlement, and receiving the indemnified party’s prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that the indemnified party will have the absolute right to reject any settlement or compromise that requires that it admit wrongdoing or liability or subjects it to any ongoing affirmative obligations.
  10. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY  
    1. Exclusion of Damages. To the extent permitted by law, in no event will a party be liable to the other party for any consequential, indirect, special, incidental, punitive damages or loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether action is in contract or tort and even if the party knew or should have known that such damages were possible and even if direct damages are not a satisfactory remedy. 
    2. Dollar Cap. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, each party’s maximum aggregate liability to the other party for damages of any kind that the other party suffers in connection with this Agreement is limited to the amount of the Fees paid by the Customer to Neon in the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of the last event giving rise to the liability. These limitations are independent from all other provisions of this Agreement and shall apply whether an action is in contract or tort and regardless of the theory of liability, notwithstanding the failure of any remedy provided herein.
    3. Specific Exemptions. Neon shall have no liability or responsibility for (a) legitimacy and/or accuracy of the Customer Data, IP rights claims related to, or arising from, the Content; (b) except as expressly permitted under the Agreement, any Transfers of Sensitive Information; (c) any scheduled or unscheduled downtime or unavailability of the Platform and/or the Services because of Force Majeure; (d) for any claims arising from incorrect Company User Accesses, unauthorized access to the Platform due to the Customer’s or the Authorized Users gross negligence or wilful misconduct or failure of the Customer to provide Company User Accesses in compliance with Neon’s technical requirements; or (e) suspension of the Customer’s and of its Authorized Users access to the Platform for cause and termination of this Agreement for any of the reasons set forth in Section 12.2 “Termination”.

If applicable law limits the application of the provisions of this Section 10, the indemnifying party’s liability will be limited to the maximum extent permissible. For the avoidance of doubt, a party’s liability limits and other rights set forth in this Section 10 apply likewise to that party’s associates (either Neon’s Associates or Customer’s Associates). 
  11. DISPLAY OF LOGOS. NO PUBLICITY. 
    1. Logo Use. Neither party shall issue or release any announcement, statement, press release or other publicity or marketing materials relating to this Agreement or otherwise use the other party’s trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, domain names, corporate identifiers or other indicia of source, affiliation or sponsorship, in each case, without the prior written consent of the other party, except for Neon’s right to using Customer’s logo and corporate identifiers solely to identify Customer as a Neon’s customer in its Website and marketing materials.

  13. MISCELLANEOUS
    1. Affiliates’ Orders. An Affiliate of the Customer may enter its own Order(s) as mutually agreed with Neon. This creates a separate agreement between the Affiliate and Neon incorporating this Agreement with the Affiliate treated as “Customer”. Neither Customer nor any Customer’s Affiliate shall have any rights under each other’s agreement and/or the Order Form with Neon unless explicitly set forth herein, and breach or termination of any such agreement and/or the Order Form is not breach or termination under any other Affiliate’s applicable documents.
