The foregoing provisions of this Section 6 notwithstanding, Skillsoft shall not have any liability to Customer under this Section 6 to the extent that any infringement or claim thereof is based upon (i) Non-Skillsoft Content; (ii) use of the Skillsoft Product(s) in combination with any equipment or software not supplied hereunder where the Skillsoft Product(s) would not otherwise be infringing; (iii) compliance with designs, plans, or specifications provided by Customer; (iv) use of any Skillsoft Product in an application or environment for which it was not designed, not provided for in the Documentation, or not contemplated under this Agreement; (v) use of other than the most recent release of the Skillsoft Product(s) provided to Customer by Skillsoft unless such release is provided at an additional cost ; (vi) use of the Skillsoft Product(s) in breach of this Agreement; and/or (vii) any claims of infringement in which Customer or any Affiliate of Customer has an interest or license in the property allegedly infringed upon by the applicable Skillsoft Product(s). 6.4 By Customer. Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold Skillsoft harmless from and against all claims, damages, or other liabilities asserted by or payable to a third party arising out of or in connection with any Customer Content (each, a “Customer Content Claim”). In order to seek or receive indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.4 (i) Skillsoft will promptly notify Customer in writing after receiving notice of any Customer Content Claim; (ii) Customer shall have the sole control of the defense of any action on such Customer Content Claim and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and (iii) Skillsoft shall cooperate reasonably with Customer in the defense, settlement, or compromise of such Customer Content Claim at Customer’s expense. Customer will not be responsible for the expenses, including attorney’s fees, of Skillsoft incurred after Customer assumes defense of a Customer Content Claim, but Skillsoft may participate therein and retain counsel at its own expense. Customer will not be responsible for any settlement or compromise of any Customer Content Claim made by Skillsoft without Customer’s prior written consent. Customer Docusign Envelope ID: 0368DCA9-E9F2-4AB4-AE5A-65215C8C2927 Page 9 of 13 will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise affecting Skillsoft, to the extent that the judgment, settlement, or compromise requires the admission of liability, fault, or wrongful act or conduct on the part of Skillsoft, and/or otherwise involves more than the payment of money by Customer, without the prior written consent of Skillsoft. 6.5 Intentionally omitted. 7. Limitation of Liability. 7.1 Fraud, Death, or Personal Injury. Neither party excludes or limits its liability to the other for fraud, for death or personal injury resulting from its negligence, or for any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited by law. 7.2 Non-Direct Damages. Neither party shall be liable for any consequential, collateral, special, incidental, indirect, exemplary, or punitive damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits or revenue, loss of use, damage, loss or destruction of data, costs of cover, or costs of delay, however caused and based on any theory of liability, for any claims or causes of action arising out of or related to this Agreement or its subject matter. These limitations will apply even if a party has been informed of the possibility of such damages or any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited by law. 7.3 Total Liability. In no event shall either party’s aggregate liability for any claims arising in a given contract year (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether arising under this Agreement or arising out of or resulting from Customer’s use of any Skillsoft Product(s)) exceed the License Fees paid or payable under this Agreement with respect to said contract year. 7.4 Exceptions. The limitations of liability set forth in Sections 7.2 and 7.3 above shall not apply to (i) the parties’ respective indemnification obligations under this Agreement; (ii) damages arising out of or in connection with Customer’s breach of Section 2.3 of this Agreement; or (iii) any damages arising out of or in connection with Customer’s misappropriation of Skillsoft’s Intellectual Property Rights. 8. Compliance with Laws. 8.1 Compliance with Law. Each Party shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations in connection with its provisioning, downloading, and/or use of the Skillsoft Property and in performing its obligations hereunder. In addition, each Party explicitly agrees that it will comply with all applicable export controls, sanctions regulations, and embargo restrictions under the laws and regulations of the United States ("U.S."), United Kingdom (“UK”) and the European Union (“EU”) as to transactions with restricted countries, persons and entities, including restrictions against dealings with blocked or otherwise prohibited parties (collectively, “Sanctions Laws”). 8.2 Sanctions Compliance. (a) Customer represents and warrants that it is not, nor are any of its respective director(s), officer(s), agent(s), employee(s), or other authorized person(s), a “Sanctioned Person,” meaning any individual or entity (1) named on a governmental denied party or restricted list, including but not limited to any of the trade sanctions and trade controls lists maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or any other body that administers Sanctions Laws; (2) organized under the laws of, ordinarily resident in, or physically located in a jurisdiction subject to comprehensive sanctions administered by OFAC (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk People’s Republic, or Luhansk People’s Republic regions of Ukraine/Russia)) (“Sanctioned Jurisdictions”); and/or (3) owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, 50% or more in the aggregate by one or more of any of the foregoing. (b) Customer also represents and warrants that: i. it is not directly or indirectly acting on behalf of, any individuals or entities (including governments) that is a Sanctioned Person, and it will not involve any Sanctioned Persons in any capacity, directly or indirectly, in any part of this Agreement or performance under this Agreement; ii. It will not take any action that would cause Skillsoft to be in violation of Sanctions Laws; iii. It will not sell, export, re-export, divert, use, or otherwise transfer any Skillsoft Products, Skillsoft Property, Intellectual Property Rights, or Skillsoft’s Confidential Information: (1) to or for any Sanctioned Persons or to or involving Sanctioned Jurisdictions; or (2) for purposes prohibited by any Sanctions Laws; iv. it will not source any components, technology, software, or data for utilization in Skillsoft products or services: (1) from any Sanctioned Persons or Sanctioned Jurisdictions or (2) in contravention of any Sanctions Laws; and v. no payment made nor any other activity undertaken in connection with this Agreement is directly or indirectly derived from any unlawful activity. (c) Customer will promptly notify Skillsoft in the event of any violation, or reasonably anticipated violation, of any of the provisions of this Section 8.2. Docusign Envelope ID: 0368DCA9-E9F2-4AB4-AE5A-65215C8C2927 Page 10 of 13 8.3 Each Party acknowledges that any breach of its obligations under this Section 8 shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. 8.4 Remedy. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Customer agrees that Skillsoft, in its sole discretion, may take such actions as it deems necessary to remedy a breach of any provision in this Section 8. 9. Confidentiality 9.1 Non-Disclosure Obligation. All Confidential Information will be maintained in confidence by the Recipient using at least the same degree of care as the Recipient uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care, and will not be disclosed to a third party or used for any purposes except as set forth in this Agreement. The obligations described in this Section 9.1 will not apply to any Confidential Information that: (a) is known by the Recipient at the time of receipt, and not through a prior disclosure by the Discloser, as documented by the Recipient’s business records; (b) is known to the public before its receipt from the Discloser, or thereafter becomes known to the public through no breach of this Agreement by the Recipient; (c) is subsequently disclosed to the Recipient by a third party who is not under an obligation of confidentiality to the Discloser; or (d) is developed by the Recipient independently of Confidential Information received from the Discloser, as documented by the Recipient’s business records; or (e) information subject to the California Public Records Act (California Government Code § 6250 et seq.), California Civil Discovery Act (California Code of Civil Procedure § 2016.010 et seq.), and any other applicable laws. 9.2 Certain Permitted Disclosures. Notwithstanding the obligations of confidentiality and non-use set forth in Section 9.1, the Recipient may use and disclose Confidential Information as may be reasonably required by it in order for the Recipient to perform its obligations and to exercise its rights under this Agreement. The Recipient may disclose Confidential Information: (a) to its employees, directors, agents, consultants, advisors, or other third parties for the performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights hereunder, provided such entities are under an obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information that is no less stringent than those of this Section 9; and (b) to the extent necessary to comply with a court order, or as otherwise required by law or by a regulatory agency or government body, provided that the Recipient shall first give notice to the Discloser (so long as such notice is not prohibited by law) and assist the Discloser, at the Discloser’s expense, to block such disclosure and/or obtain a protective order to protect the confidentiality of such information. If the Recipient is nevertheless required to make such disclosure, the Recipient agrees to disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally required to disclose, provided, however, the Recipient shall continue to be bound by the confidentiality and non-use provisions of Section 9.1 with respect to any Confidential Information disclosed by the Recipient pursuant to this Section 9.2. The Recipient shall immediately notify the Discloser of any actual or suspected unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information. 9.3 Injunctive Relief. The parties agree that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 9 would result in irreparable harm to the non- breaching party, which breach would be inadequately compensated by money damages. Accordingly, the non-breaching party may, in addition to any other legal remedies that may be available, seek injunctive relief, including without limitation preliminary injunctive relief, prohibiting or enjoining any such actual or threatened breach of this Section 9. The parties agree that the non-breaching party will not be required to post a bond in seeking such injunctive relief. 10. General Provisions. 10.1 Force Majeure. With the exception of payment obligations, neither party shall be liable to the other for any loss or damage resulting from any delay or failure to perform its obligations hereunder, in any respect, if such delay or failure is caused, in whole or in part, by events, occurrences, or causes beyond its control. Such events, occurrences, or causes include, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, inability to secure materials and transportation facilities, riots, acts of war, epidemics or pandemics, terrorist acts, governmental actions, floods, earthquakes, natural disasters, fires, and explosions. 10.2 Affiliates. Any Affiliate of Customer may license products and services from Skillsoft, or an Affiliate of Skillsoft, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; further provided, that such license shall be set forth in a separate Order Form between Skillsoft, or its applicable Affiliate, and the applicable Affiliate of Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Order Form, Customer may not transfer its licenses to any Skillsoft Products issued under this Agreement to any Affiliate of Customer without the prior express written consent of Skillsoft or its applicable Affiliate. 10.3 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned or transferred by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole but not in part, without the other party’s permission, to an Affiliate or in connection with any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of such assigning party’s assets, or any other similar transaction; provided that the assignee: (i) is not a direct competitor of the non-assigning party; (ii) provides prompt written notice of such assignment to the Docusign Envelope ID: 0368DCA9-E9F2-4AB4-AE5A-65215C8C2927 Page 11 of 13 non-assigning party, including any updates to the Notices provision below; (iii) is capable of fully performing the obligations of the assignor under this Agreement; and (iv) agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any purported transfer or assignment in violation of this Section 10.3 shall be null and void and of no force and effect. 10.4 Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns. 10.5 Notices. All notices given hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to be duly given if delivered by any of the following methods: (i) by personal delivery; (ii) by electronic mail, with a confirmation copy sent by first class mail; (iii) by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested; or (iv) by a nationally recognized express courier.

A notice sent by electronic mail or facsimile shall be deemed given on the date of electronic confirmation of receipt. Notices shall be sent to the respective addresses of each party as set forth in the applicable Order Form. 10.6 Intentionally omitted. 10.7 Severability. If any provision herein is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision shall, to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, be severed. All other provisions shall continue in full force and effect and shall be construed so as to best effectuate the intention of the parties in executing it. 10.8 Federal Acquisition Regulations. The Skillsoft Products licensed under this Agreement are Commercial Computer Software under United States Federal Government Acquisition Regulations and agency supplements thereto. The Skillsoft Products are provided to the federal government and its agencies only under the Restricted Rights Provision of the Federal Acquisition Regulations applicable to commercial software developed at private expense and not in the public domain.

Unless exempt, Customer and Skillsoft shall abide by the requirements of 41 CFR §§ 60-1.4(a), 60-300.5(a) and 60-741.5(a). These regulations prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals based on their status as protected veterans or individuals with disabilities, and prohibit discrimination against all individuals based on their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Moreover, these regulations require that covered prime contractors and subcontractors take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment individuals without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, protected veteran status, or disability. If applicable, the Customer and Skillsoft shall also abide by the requirements 41 CFR § 61-300.10 regarding veterans’ employment reports and 29 CFR Part 471, Appendix A to Subpart A regarding posting a notice of employee rights. Note: This Section 10.8 shall be deemed to be intentionally omitted with respect to any Order Form that is not governed by the laws of the United States. 10.9 No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and is not intended to convey any rights or benefits to any third parties, nor will this Agreement be interpreted to convey any benefits or rights to any person except the parties hereto. 10.10 Governing Law and Venue. As specified in the applicable Order Form. 10.11 Waiver. The failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy. Waiver by either party of any default shall not waive any prior, concurrent, or subsequent defaults by the other party. 10.12 Counterparts, Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterpart(s), all of which shall be original, signed documents, and which together shall constitute a single agreement. In addition, the parties expressly agree to the use of electronic signatures to execute this Agreement, any Order Form, and/or any amendment to the foregoing. 10.13 Publicity. Skillsoft shall not use Customer’s name or logo in any list or other promotional materials (including, without limitation, online or print-based quotes, case studies, and video testimonials) without the advance authorization from Customer, which will not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned, or withheld. Except as set forth above, there shall be no public announcement of this Agreement or the relationship between the parties without mutual review and approval by both parties, except as part of required governmental filings, SEC filings, quarterly earnings announcements, and/or financial presentations. 10.14 Headings.

The parties understand and agree that, except as specifically provided in this Agreement, each party does not grant the other party the power or authority to make or give any agreement, statement, representation, warranty, or other commitment on behalf of it, or to enter into any contract or otherwise incur any liability or obligation, express or implied, on behalf of it, or to transfer, release, or waive any right, title, or interest of it. 10.16 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and any and all Order Forms issued hereunder constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersede all prior and Docusign Envelope ID: 0368DCA9-E9F2-4AB4-AE5A-65215C8C2927 Page 12 of 13 contemporaneous proposals, agreements, and/or nondisclosure agreements, as well as representations between them, whether written or oral. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any Order Form(s) issued hereunder, the Order Form(s) shall govern, provided, however, that any proposed amendment to any specific provision of these General Terms and Conditions, whether by Order Form or other written instrument, shall only be effective to modify such provision if it identifies the provision by its section reference and is signed by an authorized representative of Customer and a representative of each party, or such person’s designee.
