Parent has valid licenses to all material software and technology and other material Intellectual Property that is licensed to Parent by a third party licensor and used by Parent in the ordinary course of business, free and clear of all Encumbrances, except to the extent such a failure is the result of a defect in the license of the third party owner.

All necessary registration, maintenance, renewal and other relevant filing fees in connection with Parent Registered IP have been paid and all necessary

No Intellectual Property owned by or licensed to Parent or either of the Parent Subs is subject to any outstanding Order or Contract restricting the use or licensing thereof by Parent or either of the Parent Subs. To the Knowledge of Parent, no third party is misappropriating, infringing, diluting or violating any Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to Parent in a material manner.

          (g) Neither Parent nor either of the Parent Subs has transferred ownership of, or granted any exclusive license with respect to, any material Intellectual Property. No loss or expiration of any of the material Intellectual Property used by Parent in the conduct of its business is threatened, pending or reasonably foreseeable.

          (h) To the Knowledge of Parent, Parent’s business does not constitute unfair competition or trade practices and Parent has not engaged and does not engage in any false or misleading advertising or practices under the Laws of any jurisdiction in which Parent operates or markets any of its products or services.

          (i) Parent and each of the Parent Subs maintains policies and procedures regarding data security and privacy that are in compliance with all applicable Laws. To the Knowledge of Parent, there have been no security breaches relating to violations or any security policy or any unauthorized access of any data or information of Parent’s software or technology systems in the last two years. Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent, the use and dissemination by Parent of any and all data or information concerning individuals is in compliance with all such privacy policies and applicable Laws, including HIPAA, and with respect to Parent and Merger Sub, the transactions contemplated to be consummated hereunder as of the Closing will not violate any such privacy policies or Laws.
