MSSP will be responsible for the installation, including without limitation: (a) all configurations (including the installation environment and other third party systems) in connection therewith; and (b) for providing Sixgill with (as well as procuring for Sixgill the right to access and use) all information, materials, facilities, and equipment reasonably requested by Sixgill for the purposes of installation.

6.     Responsibilities.

6.1.  MSSP’s Obligations. MSSP agrees to conduct business in a manner that reflects favorably at all times on the Solution, goodwill and reputation of Sixgill and avoid deceptive, misleading or unethical practices. In addition to the extent MSSP offers the End Users Application Security Management services using the Solution or any of the Deliverables, MSSP is responsible for obtaining all consents and rights from the End Users for the access by Sixgill to the End User’s assets as and to the extent required and prescribed by Sixgill so as to allow Sixgill to execute such services.   

6.2.  Services Manager. MSSP shall appoint a qualified person to serve as a liaison and chief point of contact between MSSP and Sixgill for all business, technical issues and updates.

MSSP shall indicate to the public that it is an authorized MSSP of Sixgill’s Solution(s) but will not imply that Sixgill endorses the Managed Services or Derivatives. All representations of Sixgill Trademarks that MSSP intends to use shall first be submitted to Sixgill for approval of design, color, and other details, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. MSSP agrees with respect to each of these trademarks to include in each use (such as an advertisement or brochure) such details which shall inform that it is Sixgill’s authorized MSSP. If any of the Marks are to be used in conjunction with another trademark, then Sixgill’s Mark shall be presented equally legibly, equally prominently, and of at least the same size as the other mark but nevertheless separated from the other so that each appears to be a mark in its own right, distinct from the other mark. Effective upon the termination of this Agreement, MSSP shall cease to use all Marks.

6.4.  Training. If and to the extent provided in the applicable Order, Sixgill shall provide to MSSP basic training services in accordance with Sixgill’s normal practices, as may be more fully set forth in the applicable Order or SOW.  MSSP shall, at MSSP’s sole cost and expense, participate in relevant, appropriate and applicable Sixgill sales and technical training courses, ensuring that all relevant MSSP personnel attend such training.

6.5.  Information. Pursuant to procedures determined by Sixgill from time to time, MSSP shall keep Sixgill informed as to: (a) problems encountered and resolutions proposed and shall communicate promptly to Sixgill any and all suggested modifications, design changes or improvements of the Solution suggested by any employee or agent of MSSP; (b) any market information which comes to its attention regarding Sixgill, the Solution, Sixgill’s market position, or the continued competitiveness of the Solution in the marketplace. MSSP will confer with Sixgill from time to time, at Sixgill’s request, on matters relating to market conditions, MSSP forecasts and solution planning. MSSP further agrees that Sixgill shall be and remain the exclusive owner of such information.

6.6.  Reporting. MSSP shall provide to Sixgill written sales reports for Derivatives and/or Managed Services on a monthly basis. Such reports shall include End User name, billing location, End User’s jurisdiction, and other information as may be requested by Sixgill from time to time. At Sixgill’s request, MSSP shall provide Sixgill with periodic forecasts estimating value and closing dates of sales of the Derivatives and Managed Services, as Sixgill shall reasonably request from time to time, but not more frequently than semi-annually. MSSP will regularly update prospect and lead information within Sixgill’s CRM system (or provide the necessary inputs that could be exported into such CRM system).

6.7.  Non-competition. During the Term and for twenty four (24) months thereafter, MSSP shall not, directly or indirectly, develop any product that competes with the Solution or enter into any engagement or arrangement in respect of the development or commercialization of products that compete with the Solution.

6.8.  Documentation. Sixgill shall, at no additional charge, provide MSSP with one copy of its standard package of documentation (in the English language) related to the use of the Solution (“Documentation”). If Sixgill modifies the Documentation for general distribution, Sixgill shall provide all of the modifications to MSSP at no additional charge. All translations of Documentation which Sixgill may provide (or which MSSP may have prepared) will be at MSSP’s sole expense.

7.              Audit. During the term of this Agreement and for at least two (2) years thereafter, MSSP agrees to keep all usual and proper records indicating to any relevant information relating to the use of the Solution or provisioning of Managed Services or Derivatives and with any additional information required by Sixgill (including with respect to the usage, End Users, etc.). Sixgill may cause an audit to be made of MSSP records in order to verify accurate performance of this Agreement by MSSP (including the calculation of Fees). Prompt adjustment will be made to compensate for any errors or omissions disclosed by such audit. Any such audit will be conducted no more than once a year by an independent certified accountant selected by Sixgill. MSSP agrees to provide Sixgill’s designated auditor and any assistance required with access to the relevant records. The cost for any such audit will be paid for by Sixgill unless the amount of any underpayment revealed by such audit for the period being audited is greater than five percent (5%) of the amount that should have been paid for such period, in which case MSSP agrees to pay Sixgill for the costs incurred by Sixgill for such audit.

8.     Warranties

Recipient agrees that it shall treat the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it accords to its own Confidential Information; provided that in doing so, in no event shall Recipient exercise less than reasonable care. Recipient agrees to advise the Disclosing Party in writing of any misappropriation or misuse by any person of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information of which Recipient may become aware.

14.3.                 Return of Materials. Upon termination or expiration of the applicable Order (unless a subsequent Order is entered into) or this Agreement, any materials or Confidential Information of Disclosing Party which are furnished to Recipient, and all copies thereof, at the Disclosing Party’s option, will either be: (i) promptly returned to the Disclosing Party; or (ii) destroyed by Recipient (with Recipient providing written certification of such destruction).
