    Client shall (i) grant HS1 reasonable access to Client's systems as reasonably necessary to perform the obligations hereunder, (ii) cooperate with HS1 in providing the services hereunder; and (iii) pay the entire balance of the fees due from time to time hereunder.

  2. FEES AND PAYMENT TERMS.

    HS1 agrees to provide the Labnext and DDX Services to Client at the initial fees indicated on the front side of this document and Client agrees to pay HS1 for the Labnext and DDX Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All fees are exclusive of any state, local and other taxes and charges (other than income or franchise taxes payable by HS1) directly applicable to the Labnext and DDX Services. All fees due under this Agreement shall be payable by Client within 30 days after the date of invoice.

  3. TERMINATION.

    HS1 may terminate this Agreement at any time. Upon termination, HS1 shall invoice Client for all fees due for the entire term, and Client shall pay such amount immediately upon receipt of invoice. In the event of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement, this section and Sections 4 and 5 shall survive.

  4. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

    The parties agree that this Agreement and other materials provided by HS1 to Client are the confidential property of HS1 ("Confidential Information"), and that any confidential business, technical, financial or other information disclosed by one party to the other pursuant to this Agreement is the Confidential Information of the disclosing party. Each party agrees that it shall not use the Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose not expressly permitted by this Agreement, and that it shall hold in confidence and shall not disclose to any third party such Confidential Information, and shall similarly bind its personnel. A party shall not be obligated under this section with respect to information that it can document: (i) is or has become readily publicly available without restriction through no fault of such party or its personnel, (ii) is received, without restriction, from a third party lawfully in possession of such information and lawfully empowered to disclose such information, or (iii) was rightfully in such party's possession without restriction prior to its disclosure by the other party. Without limiting the other provisions of this section with respect to individually identifiable health information to which HS1 has access on behalf of Client, the parties agree to, where applicable, comply with the provisions of the (a) Business Associate Agreement, or (b) Information Manager Agreement, included in Exhibit A, which is expressly incorporated herein by reference.

  5. OTHER MATTERS.
    1. Data.

      HS1 utilizes commercially reasonably measures to protect the security and integrity of customer and patient data. These measures may include the implementation of structural, technical, or operational controls to limit flows of sensitive or protected data between organizations in order to enhance security and to reduce the potential for conflicts of interest. Without limiting HS1's obligations hereunder with respect to confidential data, the parties agree that HS1 may use, retain, and combine De-identified Data (i) for the provision of DDX Services, (ii) for preparing commercially available, normative benchmarking data and analytics; and (iii) for other business purposes to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules, regulations, and contractual obligations. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that De-Identified Data is not confidential data under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, "De-identified Data" means data that has been aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified such that the data cannot uniquely identify, either explicitly or implicitly, Client or any individual. HS1 supports the interoperability of data to optimize health outcomes and improve patient care to the extent required or permitted by law. The parties acknowledge and agree that HS1 may disclose patient identifiable data to the respective patient and to such third parties as the patient may direct.

    2. Indemnification.

      Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless HS1, Henry Schein, Inc. and their respective officers, employees and agents (together, the “Included Indemnitees”) from and against all claims, loss, damage, liability and lawsuits (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from any breach by Client of its covenants in this Agreement, provided that (i) HS1 shall give Client reasonable written notice of such claim, loss, expense, damage, liability or lawsuit, (ii) the Included Indemnitees shall reasonably cooperate with Client in the defense and/or settlement thereof, and (iii) HS1 shall have an opportunity to assume control of such defense, and shall not be responsible for any settlement that HS1 does not approve in writing.

    3. LIMITED WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMER.

      HS1 MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES TO ANY PERSON WITH RESPECT TO THE LABNEXT AND DDX SERVICES AND DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FURTHER, HS1 DOES NOT WARRANT, GUARANTEE OR MAKE REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING SUCH SERVICES IN TERMS OF CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY OR OTHERWISE OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR COMPLETELY SECURE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, HS1 SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED HEREIN. NO HS1 AGENT OR EMPLOYEE IS AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY EXPANSION, MODIFICATION OR ADDITION TO THIS LIMITATION AND EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE LABNEXT AND DDX SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND CLIENT'S USE OF THE SERVICES INCLUDING CLIENT'S PROVISION OF ACCESS TO THE SERVICES TO ITS CUSTOMERS IS AT ITS OWN RISK.

    4. EXPRESS DISCLAIMER OF THIRD PARTY ACTIVITIES.

      PROVISION OF THE LABNEXT AND DDX SERVICES MAY REQUIRE THE USE OF SERVICES AND FACILITIES OF THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING FACILITIES USED IN THE TRANSMISSION OF DATA OVER, AND THE AVAILABILITY OF DATA ON, THE INTERNET, WHICH SERVICES AND FACILITIES ARE NOT UNDER THE CONTROL OF HS1 ("THIRD PARTY SERVICES"). AT TIMES, ACTIONS OR INACTIONS OF ENTITIES CONTROLLING SUCH THIRD PARTY SERVICES MAY DISRUPT OR PREVENT COMMUNICATIONS, INCLUDING OVER THE INTERNET (OR PORTIONS THEREOF). HS1 DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RESULTING FROM OR RELATED TO THIRD PARTY SERVICES AND SUCH EVENTS.

    5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

      IN NO EVENT SHALL HS1 BE LIABLE TO CLIENT FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS AND LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE LABNEXT AND DDX SERVICES (OR ANY DUTY OF COMMON LAW, AND WHETHER OR NOT OCCASIONED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF A PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES), REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING IN THIS SECTION IS INTENDED TO, OR DOES, LIMIT THE CONFIDENTIALITY OR INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY SET FORTH HEREIN. HS1 SHALL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY AMOUNTS, IN THE AGGREGATE, IN EXCESS OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY CLIENT TO HS1 HEREUNDER DURING THE PRECEDING THREE-MONTH PERIOD. Due to the nature of the Labnext and DDX Services being provided by HS1, it is agreed that in no event shall HS1 be liable for any claim, loss, correction, damage or expense caused by HS1's performance or failure to perform hereunder, which is not reported to HS1 by Client within thirty (30) days of such performance or failure to perform.

    6. Notices.

      Except as otherwise provided, all notices given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt if delivered by hand or facsimile transmission with receipt confirmed, three days after mailing by certified or registered mail, and one day after sending by overnight courier, to the parties' respective address indicated on the signature page of this Agreement or such other address as a party specifies in writing to the other party.
