Background
- Term and Renewal of Agreement. This Agreement will be in effect for an initial period of one year, beginning on the Effective Date, as defined on the execution page of this Agreement. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive terms of one year each starting on the anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Term”) on the same terms and conditions.
- Grant of License. In accordance with the terms of this Agreement and upon the Trainer’s successful completion of the Program, ICG hereby grants to the Trainer the limited, revocable, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license (the “License”) for the Term:
- to use the methodologies taught by ICG during the Program to directly train other students, provided that the Trainer does so in a professional and competent manner in accordance with the standards and procedures set by ICG from time to time and in full compliance with all applicable laws;
- to purchase from ICG the materials described in section 6 (the “Materials“) for use and distribution by the Trainer in the direct training of clients of the Trainer;
- to advertise that the Trainer has been certified by ICG as having successfully completed the Program; and
- to use the trade-mark “Coaching Out of the Box®” only in referring to the Program or the Materials purchased or otherwise received from ICG and provided that ICG shall have the right to exercise direct or indirect control over the character and quality of such training services in accordance with section 50(1) of the Trade-Marks Act.
- To use the designation of Coaching Out of the Box™ Digitally Enabled Licensed Trainer (DELT), which may be used in identifying and marketing their services.
- All Rights Reserved. Any and all rights not explicitly granted to the Trainer in this Agreement are reserved to ICG. The Trainer acknowledges and agrees that:
- the validity of ICG’s exclusive ownership of all rights in and to the copyright in the Materials and the Program for the “Coaching Out of the Box®” trademark, and all associated goodwill are for the sole benefit of ICG;
- its use of the “Coaching Out of the Box®” trademark will not create in the Trainer’s favour any right, title, or interest to it; and
- during the Term and thereafter, apart from any rights specifically granted pursuant to this Agreement, the Trainer will not do or assist others to do anything or omit to do anything that might impair, contest, jeopardize, violate, or infringe the rights granted in the License or ICG’s rights thereto, or do anything to prejudice or hamper the reputation or goodwill of ICG, including, without limitation, copying, reproducing or modifying the Materials or any other copyright-protected work or any substantial part of them in any material form whatsoever or making any claim, use, or application to register, record, or file any trademark, trade name, domain name, or design that is, in the opinion of ICG, identical or confusingly similar to the “Coaching Out of the Box®” trademark, or assist or encourage any other party to do so.
- No Sublicensing. Successful certification by ICG of the Trainer upon completion of the Program enables the Trainer to use tools the Trainer acquires from the Program to train other people directly. The Trainer will have no right to coach others to be trainers or to assign, license, sublicense, grant or create any interest in the License without the prior written consent of ICG, which may be withheld in its absolute discretion. If such consent is given on any particular occasion, further consents will be required for all subsequent occasions.
- Advertising. The Trainer may not state or imply in any of its advertising or promotional material, or verbally communicate that it has an exclusive arrangement with ICG, nor that it is functioning as an agent for ICG. The Trainer agrees that if for any reason this agreement is terminated Trainer will immediately cease using any reference to the Coaching Out of the Box® trademark or ICG in all of its advertising.
- Material:Subject to the terms of this Agreement, ICG will make the Materials available for purchase by the Trainer which Materials ICG may modify from time to time and which includes training materials, charts and other program materials produced by ICG together with associated instruction manuals. Schedule “A” provides a price list for the Materials which are subject to change upon thirty (30) days notice by ICG. The Trainer will be solely responsible for paying for any training materials used to deliver the course.. Trainer agrees to pay all invoices received from ICG by the due date shown on the invoice. For any invoice which becomes past due by the failure of Trainer to pay by the due date, ICG may charge an additional amount of 18% per year on the balance that remains past due.
-
- Confidentiality and Safekeeping of Materials. The Trainer agrees to maintain the security and confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined below) received from ICG, keep all such Confidential Information confidential, and not, directly or indirectly, use, disclose, communicate, publish or reproduce it or cause or allow its use, disclosure, communication, publication or reproduction for any other purpose except as specifically provided under the terms of this Agreement or with ICG’s prior authorization and express consent. The Trainer agrees that it, not ICG, shall assume all responsibility for maintaining the confidentiality of any Confidential Information which the Trainer receives from ICG.

- was or becomes available to the Trainer from a source other than ICG, provided that the Trainer did not know and had no reason to know that the source had a duty of confidentiality to ICG.
- No Results Guaranteed. The Trainer understands that the effectiveness of the Program in obtaining specific results in improving organizational and individual behavior or productivity is dependent on a number of variables beyond the control of ICG. Furthermore, Trainer acknowledges that any such improvement may be incapable of measurement. Content of the Program and the Materials are the original works of ICG; ICG is the copyright owner. ICG agrees to and will indemnify and hold the Trainer harmless from and against all claims of copyright infringement or for the contents of the Program and Materials. This indemnity will survive the termination of this Agreement.

- Disclaimer, Limitation of Liability, Indemnity.

In no event will ICG be liable for any losses, or direct, indirect, consequential, punitive, or special damages, even if the Trainer has advised ICG of the possibility of such damages, relating to this Agreement, the Program, or associated materials, including but not limited to loss of data, business, profits, income, use, production, or goodwill, that may be claimed under any theory of liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, under no circumstance will ICG’s aggregate liability to the Trainer exceed the fees if any paid or payable by the Trainer to ICG. This Agreement represents a fair allocation of risk and liability, which is reflected by the fees, if any, payable under this Agreement. No action, regardless of form, arising out of the transactions under this Agreement may be brought by the Trainer against ICG more than two (2) years after the cause of action arose. The exclusion of certain warranties and the exclusion or limitation of certain liabilities is prohibited by legislation in some jurisdictions, some of which apply to the Trainer.
- Indemnification.

- Effect of Termination and Survival. The Trainer agrees that upon the termination of this Agreement all licensed rights granted herein shall immediately revert back to ICG and the Trainer will promptly return all Materials (both used and unused) to ICG. The Trainer’s obligation to pay fees owing to ICG by the Trainer will survive any termination of this Agreement. Further, sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10 of this Agreement and any other provisions reasonably necessary for the interpretation of this Agreement will survive termination.
