Mueller Title: Weld County Board of County Commissioners Title: Chief Operations Officer DJAN 1 ri 2022 Date: Date: 1 /9 / �- Non -Disclosure Agreement (NDA) This Non -Disclosure Agreement ("Non -Disclosure Agreement") is applicable in the event Customer and LabLynx (both as defined in the Master Agreement) have entered into a Master Agreement, among other Agreements listed therein. Without incorporation of this Non -Disclosure Agreement into the Master Agreement, this Non -Disclosure Agreement is inapplicable. Any terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the MasterAgreement. In order to enable Customer and LabLynx to identify and pursue business opportunities related to the software developed by LabLynx, it may be necessary for both parties to disclose to the other party certain proprietary information, including financial, operations, marketing, computer programs, documentation, data, trade secrets, pricing, systems, methodology, know-how, and other commercial knowledge relating to LabLynx, its affiliates and their respective operations, customers and finances (the "Proprietary Information"). As used in this Non -Disclosure Agreement, the Party disclosing Proprietary Information is the "Disclosing Party" and the Party receiving the Proprietary Information is the "Recipient." In connection therewith, the Parties agree as follows: (a) in consideration of receiving disclosures of Proprietary Information, the Recipient agrees to keep Proprietary Information as confidential and not to disclose the same to third parties. Proprietary Information includes any information or documents marked as "Proprietary" or "Confidential" or which otherwise, under all the circumstances, ought reasonably to be treated as confidential or proprietary hereunder. (b) Proprietary Information shall not, however, include information that (i) was known by the Recipient at the time it was received from someone who had a right to disclose such information or is hereafter independently developed by each party without reference to any Proprietary Information; (ii) is, as of the time of its disclosure, or thereafter becomes, part of the public domain through a source other than the Disclosing Party or the Recipient; (iii) is made known to the Recipient by a third person who does not impose any obligation of confidence on either LabLynx or the Customer with respect to such information; or (iv) is approved for disclosure by prior written consent of the Disclosing Party. Recipient may release Proprietary Information if such Proprietary Information is required to be disclosed pursuant to governmental authority, law, regulation, duly authorized subpoena or court order, or legal requirements, whereupon each Party shall provide notice to the other party prior to such disclosure. (c) The Recipient shall disclose or reveal the existence or the content of any Proprietary Information only to those of its employees or affiliates who are involved in discussions with the Disclosing Party, and who have been informed to hold such Proprietary Information in confidence in accordance with the non -disclosure and confidentiality obligations hereof. (d) The Recipient shall use the Proprietary Information only for purposes of the discussions hereunder and developing the terms under which the business opportunities if any shall be pursued. Upon the termination or expiration of this Non -Disclosure Agreement for any reason, LabLynx and Customer shall return to each other any document or material in tangible form and all copies thereof in its possession comprising Proprietary Information and shall destroy any document or other material in electronic form that contains Proprietary Information. Both LabLynx and Customer acknowledge that any breach by it of its obligations under this Non -Disclosure Agreement could cause substantial and irreparable harm to the other Party and that, in such case, money damages would be an inadequate remedy therefore. Accordingly, LabLynx and Customer acknowledge and agree that the damaged Party would be entitled, in addition to any other available remedies, to seek an injunction, specific performance and/or equitable relief to prevent any such breach. This Non -Disclosure Agreement shall not obligate the Customer or LabLynx to develop any kind of business alliance.

Acceptable Use Policies Becoming a Customer of LabLynx constitutes an agreement to abide by this Hosting Agreement and the acceptable use policies set forth herein. All references to LabLynx in this Hosting Agreement include the LabLynx system, network, and its employees, and any third party provider used by LabLynx. All references to Customer include any person or party which uses Customer's account. a. Customer may not use the LabLynx system and services in any way that violates United States federal, state, local, or international law or the rights of others. This prohibits, but is not limited to, any actions of Customer which are threatening, obscene or defamatory, which violate trade secret, copyright, trademark or patent rights, which violates rights of privacy or publicity, which result in the spread of computer viruses or other damaging programs or data files, or which violate any export restrictions (including making non -exportable information or software available to foreign nationals as may be prohibited by law).

Customer will not forge, conceal, disguise, or otherwise attempt to alter the identifying characteristics of electronic transmissions originating from its account(s). d. Customer will not send unsolicited bulk e-mail or spam e-mail. As a guideline, mailing more than 20 messages simultaneously or in close proximity to individual recipients with whom the sender has no pre-existing relationship or who have not otherwise consented to receiving such e-mail will be considered an unacceptable transmission which may result in termination of Customer's account. Any actions which LabLynx, at its sole discretion, believes to be an attempt to circumvent the intent of this prohibition shall be treated as a violation of this provision. Such transmissions and the fallout from such transmissions cause significant damage to LabLynx in terms of resources and staff time as well as reputational damage. Such damages are difficult to calculate in a precise amount. Should LLX-HA-2021.1 LLX-HA-202 1.1 Customer distribute such email or messages, Customer agrees that in addition to any remedies provided under this Hosting Agreement, Customer shall be liable to LabLynx for $25,000 as liquidated damages. Should actual damages be ascertainable in excess of $25,000, Customer will be liable for the actual damages. The parties hereto agree that the damages caused by such e-mail communications as those described herein are difficult and impossible to estimate, the sum stipulated hereby is a reasonable pre -estimate of the probable loss to LabLynx, and the parties hereto intend to provide for liquidated damages. Customer shall also be liable for costs and reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred in collecting any such damages from Customer. Furthermore, should Customer contract for bulk e-mail or message posting services to advertise a service or Web site offered by Customer through LabLynx's system or network, Customer shall be treated under this section as if Customer personally sent such e-mail or posts through LabLynx's system or network. e. Customer is explicitly not permitted to set up Internet hosts or domains on their computer(s) or with the servers or services provided by LabLynx. Customer is not permitted to share or otherwise let others use its account in any way. f. If any software or programs are installed by Customer, it shall be Customer's responsibility to ensure itself that it has valid software licenses to do so, and shall hold LabLynx harmless therefrom. g. If LabLynx finds or suspects, in its sole discretion, that Customer is in violation of any rules set out in this section as an acceptable use policy, Customer's account may be immediately restricted, suspended, terminated or permanently canceled. If hosting is terminated, LabLynx may, in its sole discretion, reinstate hosting upon adequate showing of Customer's right to use the Content or User Content. h. LabLynx may, at its option, remove or delete Data, software or any material (without reimbursement) in violation hereof and/or notify authorities. i. LabLynx reserves the right to modify the rules at any time by publishing such modifications over the Hosting service and sending notices to each Customer or by posting changes to LabLynx's Web site. 11. Taxes Customer is solely liable for any taxes and fees payable for products or services sold by Customer on the Web site. 12.
