of data or has access to repositories of data that benefit authorized agencies in performing their duties. Agency wants to

2.2 Methods of access.
The BCA offers three (3) methods of access to its systems and tools. The methods of access are:

systems and tools. This is generally accomplished by an individual iiser entering a query into one of BCA's
systems or tools.

information from BCA's systems and tools. This method of access generally results in the Agency with indirect
access obtaining the needed data and information in a physical format lil<e a paper report.
C. Computer-to-computer system interface occurs when Agency's computer exchanges data and information
with BCA's computer systems and tools using an interface. Without limitation, interface types include: state
message switch, web services, enterprise service bus and message queuing.
For purposes of this Agreement, Agency employees or contractors may use any of these methods to use BCA's
systems and tools as described in this Agreement. Agency will select a method of access and can change the
methodology following the process in Clause 2.10.
2.3 Federal systems access. In addition, pursuant to 28 CFR §20.30-38 and Minn. Stat. §299C.58, BCA may provide

or use of any trademark used in connection with Authorized Court Data Services, including
but not limited to the marks "MNCIS" and "Odyssey."
d. Restrictions on Duplication, Disclosure, and Use. Trade secret information
of Court and its licensors will be treated by Subscriber in the same manner as Court
Cont�idential Information. In addition, Subscriber will not copy any part of the Court Data
Services Programs or Court Data Services Databases, or reverse engineer or otherwise
attempt to discern the source code of the Court Data Services Programs or Court Data
Services Databases, or use any trademark of Court or its licensors, in any way or for any
purpose not specifically and expressly authorized by this Subscriber Amendment. As used
herein, "trade secret information of Court and its licensors" means any information
possessed by Court which derives independent economic value from not being generally
lcnown to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can
obtain economic value from its disclosure or use. "Trade secret information of Court and its
licensors" does not, however, include information which was known to Subscriber prior to
Subscriber's receipt thereof, either directly or indirectly, from Court or its licensors,
information which is independently developed by Subscriber without reference to or use of
information received from Court or its licensors, or information which would not qualify as
a trade secret under Minnesota law. It will not be a violation of this section 7, sub-section d,
for Subscriber to make up to one copy of training materials and configuration
documentation, if any, for each individual authorized to access, use, or configure Authorized
Court Data Services, solely for its own use in connection with this Subscriber Amendment.
Subscriber will take all steps reasonably necessary to protect the copyright, trade secret, and
trademark rights of Court and its licensors and Subscriber will advise its bona fide personnel
who are permitted access to any of the Court Data Services Programs and Court Data
Services Databases, and trade secret information of Court and its licensors, of the
restrictions upon duplication, disclosure and use contained in this Subscriber Amendment.

e. Proprietary Notaces. Subscriber will not remove any copyright or
proprietary notices included in and/or on the Court Data Services Programs or Court Data
Services Databases, related documentation, or trade secret information of Court and its
licensors, or any part thereof, made available by Court directly or through the BCA, if any,
and Subscriber will include in and/or on any copy of the Court Data Services Programs or
Court Data Services Databases, or trade secret information of Court and its licensors and any
documents pertaining thereto, the same copyright and other proprietary notices as appear on
the copies made available to Subscriber by Court directly or through the BCA, except that
copyright notices shall be updated and other proprietary notices added as may be
appropriate.
f. Title; Return. The Court Data Services Programs and Court Data Services
Databases, and related documentation, including but not limited to training and
configuration material, if any, and logon account information and passwords, if any, made
available by the Court to Subscriber directly or through the BCA and all copies, including
partial copies, thereof are and remain the property of the respective licensor. Except as
expressly provided in section 12.b., within ten days of the effective date of termination of
this Subscriber Amendment or the CJDN Subscriber Agreement or within ten days of a
request for termination of Authorized Court Data Service as described in section 4,
Subscriber shall either: (i) uninstall and return any and all copies of the applicable Court
Data Services Programs and Court Data Services Databases, and related documentation,
including but not limited to training and configuration materials, if any, and logon account
information, if any; or (2) destroy the same and certify in writing to the Court that the same
have been destroyed.
8. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Subscriber acknowledges that the Court, Court's
licensors, and DCA will be irreparably harmed if Subscriber's obligations under this Subscriber
Amendment are not specifically enforced and that the Court, Court's licensors, and DCA would not
have an adequate remedy at law in the event of an actual or threatened violation by Subscriber of its
obligations. Therefore, Subscriber agrees that the Court, Court's licensors, and DCA shall be
entitled to an injunction or any appropriate decree of specific performance for any actual or
threatened violations or breaches by Subscriber or its bona fide personnel without the necessity of
the Court, Court's licensors, or DCA showing actual damages or that monetary damages would not
afford an adequate remedy. Unless Subscriber is an office, officer, agency, department, division, or
bureau of the state of Minnesota, Subscriber shall be liable to the Court, Court's licensors, and DCA
for reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Court, Court's licensors, and DCA in obtaining any
relief pursuant ta this Subscriber Amendment.
9. LIABILITY. Subscriber and the Court agree that, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, each party will be responsible for its own acts and the results thereof to the extent
authorized by law and shall not be responsible for the acts of any others and the results thereof.
Liability shall be governed by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, liability of the Court
and any Subscriber that is an office, officer, agency, department, division, or bureau of the state of
Minnesota shall be governed by the provisions of the Minnesota Tort Claims Act, Minnesota
Statutes, section 3.376, and other applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, if Subscriber is a
political subdivision of the state of Minnesota, liability of the Subscriber shall be governed by the
provisions of Minn. Stat. Ch. 466 (Tort Liability, Political Subdivisions) or other applicable law.
Subscriber and Court further acknowledge that the liability, if any, of the BCA is governed by a
separate agreement between the Court and the BCA dated December 13, 2010 with DPS-M -0958.

10. AVAILABILITY. Specific terms of availability shall be established by the Court
and communicated to Subscriber by the Court and/or the BCA. The Court reserves the right to
terminate this Subscriber Amendment immediately and/or temporarily suspend Subscriber's
Authorized Court Data Services in the event the capacity of any host computer system or legislative
appropriation of funds is determined solely by the Court to be insufficient to meet the computer
needs of the courts served by the host computer system.
