Licensor shall not be liable for delay or interruption in access to the API or in transmitting any information, features, or reports, or non-fulfillment of the terms of this API License Agreement, if and to the extent such delay, interruption, or non-fulfillment is caused by an occurrence – even if foreseeable – that (1) would make Licensor’s performance under this API License Agreement impossible or impracticable; and (2) is beyond the reasonable control of Licensor. Occurrences that will make Licensor’s performance impossible or impracticable include, but are not limited to, delay of transportation services or accident to means of transportation, natural disasters, floods, fires, earthquakes, tornadoes, riots, strikes, epidemics, pandemics, quarantines, acts of God, war (declared or undeclared), compliance with any act, regulation, order or request of any governmental authority or agency, including declarations of a state of emergency, whether local or national, or any other causes, whether direct or indirect, not within the reasonable control of Licensor, and which by the exercise of reasonable diligence Licensor is unable to prevent such delay, interruption, or non-fulfillment of the provisions of this Agreement. If Licensor invokes the force majeure rights set forth in this paragraph, Licensor will notify Licensee as soon as practically possible.
TERM AND TERMINATION
This API License Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue for the subscription period applicable to the Service Plan selected by Licensee. Access to the API will expire at the end of that subscription period unless Licensee purchases a new subscription, , unless earlier terminated as provided herein. Unless expressly stated herein or required by applicable law, Licensee shall not be entitled to, or receive, any refund or reimbursement upon API License Agreement termination.
This API License Agreement and Licensee’s access to the API will terminate immediately without notice from Licensor if Licensee fails to comply with any provision of this API License Agreement, exceeds or attempts to circumvent applicable Service Plan usage limits, or otherwise misuses the API. If Licensor terminates this API License Agreement for cause, Licensee will not be entitled to a refund of any portion of the Fees, as applicable.
Licensee may terminate this API License Agreement at any time by ceasing use of the API and, if applicable, cancelling renewal of the Service Plan in accordance with the procedures made available by Licensor, provided that termination will not entitle Licensee to a refund of any portion of the Fees except as required by applicable law.
Upon termination of this API License Agreement for any reason all licenses and rights granted to Licensee under this API License Agreement will terminate and Licensee must cease using, destroy, and permanently erase all copies of the API from all devices and systems Licensee directly or indirectly controls. Any terms that by their nature are intended to continue beyond the termination or expiration of this API License Agreement will survive termination.
Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, this API License Agreement shall also extend to any future upgrades, updates, or revisions of the API provided to Licensee by Licensor during the Term of this API License Agreement.
TRADEMARKS
Each Party’s trademarks, trade name, service marks, and logos (singularly and collectively, the “Marks”) are that Party’s exclusive property and one Party shall not, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Party who owns such Marks, use such Marks or any adaptation thereof (including any advertising, marketing materials, or sales literature) without the owner’s express prior written consent. For Licensor, prior written consent must come from the Office of Trademarks and Licensing located at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078.

Unless otherwise stated by Licensor, such modified API License Agreement shall become effective upon posting or communication to Licensee, and Licensee’s continued access to or use of the API after such effective date shall constitute Licensee’s acceptance of the modified API License Agreement.
This API License Agreement may not be transferred, sublicensed or assigned by Licensee to any other Party without the express prior written consent of Licensor, who may withhold consent for any reason in Licensor’s sole discretion.
GOVERNING LAW
This API License Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to its choice of law provisions or to which Party drafted particular provisions of this API License Agreement. Any legal action in connection with this API License Agreement shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Oklahoma, to which jurisdiction and venue Licensee expressly agrees.
Neither Licensor nor the State of Oklahoma waives its sovereign immunity by entering into this API License Agreement and each specifically retains all immunities and defenses available to it as a sovereign pursuant to all applicable law. Designations of venue, choice of law, enforcement actions and similar provisions should not be considered a waiver of sovereign immunity. Both Parties agree that any ambiguity in this API License Agreement shall not be strictly construed either for or against a Party except that any ambiguity as to sovereign immunity shall be construed in favor of sovereign immunity.
EQUITABLE RELIEF
Licensee acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by Licensee of any of its obligations hereunder, would cause Licensor irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, Licensor will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise.
COSTS OF LITIGATION
In the event that either Party commences an action in law or equity to enforce any provision of this API License Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, reasonable costs of experts, and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, as allowed by applicable law, in addition to any other relief to which said Party may be entitled.
SEVERABILITY
Should any term of this API License Agreement be declared illegal, invalid, and/or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration shall have no effect on the remaining terms hereof.
ASSIGNMENT
Licensee may not assign, sublicense, or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Licensor. Any purported assignment, transfer, sublicense, or delegation in violation of this API License Agreement is null and void. No assignment, transfer, sublicense, or delegation will relieve the assigning or delegating Party of any of its obligations hereunder. This API License Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
NO WAIVER
The failure of either Party to enforce any rights granted hereunder or to take any action against the other Party in the event of any breach hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by that Party as to subsequent enforcement of rights or subsequent actions in the event of future breaches or actionable misconduct hereunder.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This API License Agreement, together with any other documents incorporated herein by reference, including without limitation the applicable Service Plan terms presented at the time of purchase or renewal and all related policies, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this API License Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, and representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.
