In the event that the Disclosing Party does not seek such a protective order or other remedy, or such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Disclosing Party grants a waiver hereunder, the Receiving Party may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party which the Receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose and will exercise such efforts to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party so furnished.
 
15.3          A Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with the written authorization of the Disclosing Party.
 
15.4          The term “Confidential Information” excludes any portion of such information that a Receiving Party can establish by clear and convincing evidence to have been: (i) publicly known without breach of this Agreement; (ii) known by the Receiving Party prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party; (iii) received in good faith from a third-party source that to Receiving Party’s reasonable knowledge disclosed such information without an obligation of confidentiality; or (iv) developed independently by Receiving Party without use or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.
 
15.5          Neither Party shall file the Agreement (including any addendum, schedule, supplement or attachment), or any future amendment or supplement hereto, in the case of Shopify with the Canadian securities regulators, or, in the case of Flow with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission unless such filing is required under Applicable Law. In the event that either Party determines that the Agreement (or amendment or supplement) must be filed with the relevant securities regulators under Applicable Law, it shall notify the other Party (if legally permissible) and take all actions necessary to obtain confidential treatment to the extent possible for the Agreement and all exhibits, addenda, schedules, supplements and attachments (including all pricing attachments).
 
15.6          If the Receiving Party or its employees, representatives or agents breach the obligations set forth in this Section 15, then irreparable harm or injury may result to the Disclosing Party or third parties entrusting Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party. Therefore, the Disclosing Party’s remedies at law may be inadequate and the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek an injunction to restrain any continuing or threatened breach of this Section 15 and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Section 15. Notwithstanding any limitation on Receiving Party’s liability, the Disclosing Party will further be entitled to any other rights and remedies that it may have at law or in equity.
 
16.          Term, Termination, and Survival.
 
16.1          This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter for a period of three (3) years (the “Initial Term”), unless sooner terminated pursuant to Sections 16.2 and 16.3 of this Agreement. Subject to Section 16.2 and 16.3 of this Agreement after the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive 1-year periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless a Party provides the other Party with written notice of its election to terminate this Agreement at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the then-current Renewal Term as applicable. The Initial Term together with all Renewal Terms shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Term.” At least 210 days prior to the commencement of each Renewal Term, Flow shall provide Shopify its rates for an updated Exhibit B-2, and the same shall be effective commencing with the commencement of the Renewal Term.

18

 
16.2          Either Party may terminate this Agreement, effective upon written notice to the other Party (the “Defaulting Party”) if the Defaulting Party:
 
(a)          Materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach is incapable of cure, or with respect to a material breach capable of cure, the Defaulting Party does not cure such breach within 30 days after receipt of written notice of such breach.
 
(b)          Becomes insolvent or admits its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due.
 
(c)          Becomes subject, voluntarily or involuntarily, to any proceeding under any domestic or foreign bankruptcy or insolvency law, which is not fully stayed within seven days or is not dismissed or vacated within 45 days after filing.

(a)          During the 12 month period commencing with the Effective Date, for any reason by providing 180 days prior written notice to the other Party.
 
(b)          Immediately by either Party, if there is a change of control (directly or indirectly) in which a third party acquires a majority interest of the voting power, voting capital, or other equity interest of Global-e sufficient to exercise control over Global-e, which, in the case of Shopify’s right to terminate, occurs without Shopify’s prior written consent, provided that any consent or election to terminate under this Section 16.3(b) shall not be unreasonably delayed by Shopify following its receipt of notice from Global-e that a change of control has occurred within the meaning of this Section 16.3(b).
 
Neither party shall have a right to terminate except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
 
16.4          The rights and obligations of the Parties set forth in Section 1 (Definitions), Section 8 (Intellectual Property), Section 10 (Privacy and Data Usage), Section 11 (Fees, Expenses and Pay Outs) until such time as all fees have been remitted for usage of the Flow Offering, Section 12 (Audit), for a period of one (1) year from the date this Agreement terminates (the “Termination Date”), Section 14 (Indemnities) for a period of one (1) year from the Termination Date, Section 15 (Confidentiality), Section 16 (Term, Termination and Survival), Section 17 (Limitation of Liability), Section 18 (Entire Agreement) and Sections 21 through 33 (inclusive) by their nature will survive any such termination or expiration of this Agreement.
 
17.          Limitation of Liability.
 
17.1          IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR LOSS OF DATA OR ITS DIMINUTION IN VALUE, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Further this Agreement prevails over any inconsistency with the Shopify Partner Terms and the Shopify API Terms.

((Total Requests – Failed Requests + Excluded Requests) / Total Requests) x 100
 
Failed Requests” means a Transaction where the response from Flow servers does not meet the Success Rate measures in Section 3 below.
 
Excluded Requests” means a Failed Request caused by (a) a Force Majeure Event; (b) Scheduled Downtime; (c) general Internet interruptions (including Denial of Service attacks and other force majeure events); (d) Shopify’s, the Merchant’s or any third party’s website, software, hardware or other equipment; (e) Shopify’s or the Merchant’s failure to comply with its obligations; or (f) incorrect, incomplete or otherwise missing information provided by Shopify or the Merchant, the consumer or any other third party.

Processing Capacity. If the volume of requests transmitted by Shopify to Flow exceeds the amount outlined in the Processing Capacity (as set out in the table below), the API Success Rate and API Response Time SLAs are suspended until the transmitted volume is brought back below the Processing Capacity SLA and Flow, using its commercially reasonable efforts, has repaired any lingering malfunctions introduced to its systems by the high amount of traffic. The Processing Capacity SLA can be modified at any time by the Parties’ mutual agreement in writing. In that event, Flow shall maintain the Technical Service Levels SLAs for any new Processing Capacity requirements. Flow reserves the right to rate limit or otherwise throttle requests if the volume of requests transmitted by Shopify to Flow exceeds the amount outlined in the Processing Capacity.
