For the sake of clarity, the parties acknowledge and agree that Company has no obligation to develop or deliver any Company Application and Trimble has no obligation to distribute the Company Application through the Site or integrate any Company Application into a Device, and that any such development,
distribution or integration, as the case may be is at each party’s sole discretion.

Company will be responsible for development, production and verification testing of the Company Application in accordance with applicable specifications, and for furnishing a complete version of the Company Application complying with those specifications to Trimble. To the extent required and as agreed by Trimble, Trimble will be responsible for modifying the Device to allow End Users to access and use the Company Application through the Device. Company will provide free access to all necessary Application Programming Interfaces (“API”s) and associated data in order to allow Trimble to integrate the Company Application with the Device and to optimize the operation and presentation of the Company Application with the Device. In addition to providing any specific materials, information or services as may be requested by Trimble, each party agrees to provide the other party with such reasonable engineering assistance or access to technical information or resources within its respective area of technical expertise relative to the Company Application or Device (as the case may be) as may be necessary or reasonable to enable the other party’s efficient performance of its integration and verification testing activities hereunder.

2.5 Final Acceptance and Launch
Approval of any final release version of the Company Application as integrated with the Device or otherwise used with a Device (“Final Approval”) is in the sole discretion of Trimble.

Trimble will provide Company with written notification of its Final Approval of the Company Application for distribution with a Device or distribution through the Site, as applicable. Following Final Approval, Trimble will begin distribution and implementation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (each, “Launch” or “Launch Date”). If a Company Application will solely be distributed through the Site, Trimble’s placement of the Company Application on the Site will be deemed Final Approval.
2.6. Fixes and Updates. Company will deliver to Trimble all bug fixes, patches, and other updates to the Company Application, together with any related Company documentation, as soon as they become available. Approval of any update to the Company Application will be in Trimble’s sole discretion. If Trimble receives an updated version of a Company Application and approves its use with the Device, Trimble will place the updated Company Application on the Site for distribution. If Trimble approves the updated version of the Company Application for integration and distribution with the Device, Trimble will use commercially reasonable efforts to integrate and distribute the updated version of the Company Application with the next release of Device firmware, provided that the Company Application is received no less than six (6) months prior to the firmware release. Should future versions of the Devices be enabled to accept over-the-air updates then the parties will cooperate to establish a process by which the Company Application may be updated in that manner and by which advance notice thereof is given to Trimble.
2.7 Privacy. To the extent that the Company Application or Company Application Service stores, tracks, collects, or transmits End User Data, the Company shall clearly and conspicuously notify the End Users that Company will collect, use and transmit such information and Company shall post its privacy rights policy in an easily customer-findable location (e.g., on Company’s Website home page) and note both the existence of such policy and location in the End User License Agreement, as well as on any other mutually agreed to location. Company will (in the manner described under Section 10 below) defend, indemnify and hold Trimble harmless against any liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of Company's failure to comply with the terms of this Section 2.7.
2.8 Discontinuing Company Applications. To the extent that Company wishes to discontinue or make inoperable any Company Application previously provided hereunder (“Discontinued Software”), Company shall provide Trimble with no fewer than six (6) months advance written notice of such Discontinued Software and shall continue to support the Discontinued Software during such notice period; provided, however, that Company may support the Discontinued Software for a shorter period if the decision to discontinue or make inoperable such the Discontinued Software arises from applicable law or other factors outside of Company’s control. The parties will discuss in good faith the timing for the discontinuation of any distribution of Company Applications that are licensed pursuant to this Agreement, however, Company acknowledges and agrees that where the Discontinued Software has been integrated into Device firmware Trimble shall not be required to remove or cease distribution of the Discontinued Software prior to commercial release of the next Device firmware release. Additionally, should Company cease supporting prior versions of a Company Application Trimble may notify End Users of such discontinued support.

3. Additional Terms
(a) Limitations. Company acknowledges that preload by Trimble of a Company Application will be limited to installation by Trimble of the Company Application, and shall not involve launch or activation of the Company Application Service.

The accessibility of the Company Application and thus the Company Application Service is conditioned upon the availability of the wireless network and positioning system with which the Devices are designed to operate. Wireless networks and coverage areas may be interrupted, terminated or restricted or the quality of the transmission may be diminished at any time. Actual coverage and operation of the Company Application may depend on system availability and capacity, system and equipment upgrades, repairs, maintenance, modifications and relocation, terrain, signal strength, structural conditions, weather and atmospheric conditions, governmental regulations, acts of God and other conditions beyond Trimble’s reasonable control.
