The obligations set forth in this Section 6 above shall not apply to Confidential Information that (a) before the time of its disclosure was already in the lawful possession of the Recipient; (b) at the time of its disclosure to Recipient is available to the general public or after disclosure to Recipient by Discloser becomes available to the general public through no wrongful act of the Recipient; or (c) Recipient demonstrates to have been lawfully independently developed by Recipient without the use of or reliance upon any Confidential Information of the Discloser and without any breach of this Agreement. In the event Customer and WpFASTER enter into a separate Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”), then such NDA shall be incorporated into this Agreement by reference herein, and if any terms and conditions of such NDA are in conflict with the terms and conditions herein, then the NDA shall supersede the Confidentiality terms and conditions in this Section 6, excluding WpFASTER’s CPNI obligations as defined herein.

10.4.2. for prepaid Services: one hundred percent (100%) of the prepaid amount;

10.4.3. any non-recurring fees WpFASTER incurs from other suppliers in connection with cancellation of the Services; and

10.4.4. any outstanding invoices still owed by Customer. Such payment shall be due within sixty (60) days of termination.

10.5. Suspension. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, WpFASTER may suspend some or all of the Services without liability to Customer if: (a) Customer fails to pay the applicable fees for the Services when due; (b) WpFASTER determines that the Services are being used, have been used, or will, with commercially reasonable certainty, be used in breach of this Agreement; (c) Customer fails to cooperate with an investigation of any suspected breach of this Agreement; (d) WpFASTER reasonably believes that the Services have been accessed or utilized in any way by a third party without Customer’s consent; or (d) suspension of services is reasonably necessary to protect WpFASTER’s hosting environment. WpFASTER will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer advance notice of a suspension and a chance to cure the violation on which the suspension is based, unless WpFASTER determines, in its reasonable judgment, that an immediate suspension is necessary to protect WpFASTER’s network and its customers’ from an imminent, significant operational, network integrity or security risk. Suspensions based on Customer’s breach of this Agreement will not relieve Customer’s obligation to pay for the suspended Services during the period of suspension. Any suspension imposed under this Section will be lifted upon Customer’s cure of the breach causing the suspension. In the event the Customer is unable to cure the breach within fifteen (15) days of notice from WpFASTER, the suspension may be treated as a termination for Cause. During the suspension period, WpFASTER shall have the right to deny access to, and/or, destroy data stored on the compromised server or account. WpFASTER may at its own discretion allow access to a suspended account.
