3. HOSTING. NHI uses a proprietary server "engine" technology, requiring all Portal software installations to reside on NHI servers.

4. NOT A WORK FOR HIRE. Client hereby acknowledges the software, its copyright, trademark, service mark, and patents, as they may now or eventually exist, are the property of NHI, its subsidiary company Nationalhi.com, owners, and designees. The Portal software, special request enhancements, and upgrades are not a work for hire as defined by United States Copyright Law.
5. WISH-LIST AND SUGGESTIONS. Client may submit to NHI special requests for product enhancement. Suggestions become the sole property of NHI. The final decision on implementation remains with NHI. If implemented into the public release software, Client shall not be invoiced for the enhancement. Likewise, NHI has no obligation to Client for the suggestion.
6. SPECIAL REQUESTS, UPGRADES, UNSCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. Any changes made to the Portal software at the request of Client and not provisioned under paragraph five (5) above shall incur a cost to Client of $65 (sixty-five dollars) per hour.

In this event, Client may forgo the upgrade or incur the cost to recreate the special request enhancement in the upgraded version. Client may experience additional unscheduled downtime to install, test, and maintain special request enhancements. All special request enhancements become the sole property of NHI and may be incorporated into future upgrades of the Portal software without recompense to the commissioning Client.
7. CONFIDENTIALITY. NHI recognizes the confidential nature of applicant records maintained by the Portal software. As such, NHI shall take all reasonable steps to insure the protection and confidentiality of all information stored on NHI servers. Upon the viewing or printing of confidential records, the individual who has viewed or printed the data assumes this obligation to him/herself. Client acknowledges that certain proprietary information about the Portal, hosting, and other vital information, should it be released to third parties, may result in unrecoverable losses to NHI. As such, Client agrees to maintain as confidential all matters of this Agreement, pricing, and other matters pertaining to the relationship created by this Agreement. NHI may, in its sole discretion, list on its websites and other advertising the name, location, and comments/testimonials of clients currently using the Portal software.
8. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCES. NHI shall maintain a general liability insurance policy of at least two million dollars ($2,000,000) to confront expenses and penalties as may be imposed by a court of competent jurisdiction as such may relate to the failure of NHI to maintain confidentiality of applicant records. Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless NHI, its staff, owners, designees, and heirs to the same, for any failure of the system to perform as stated, whether intentional or circumstantial. NHI agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Client for any failure of the system not directly attributable to error or omission of the Client, its employees, authorized contractors, or applicants.
