These Professional Service Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the provision of Services by the Company (defined in Table 1 below, “We,” “Us,” or “Our”) to Customer (“You” or “Your”) (each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”). By executing a Statement of Work (“SOW”), or placing an Order for the Services, You represent that You have full authority to bind Your organization

All capitalized terms herein have the meaning assigned to them in Attachment 1.

    2. We may use subcontractors to perform the Services, and in such case, We remain fully responsible for supervising and directing the subcontractors’ performance.

    3. The Parties will agree on a start date for the Services, which in no event will be later than six (6) months from the Service Order Date.

    4. Any completion times identified in the SOW, or the Service Order are only estimates for each Party’s resource scheduling purposes. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, We will perform the Services within one (1) year of the Service Order Date. You acknowledge and agree that if We have not completed the Services within one (1) year of the Service Order Date for reasons that are not attributable to Us, We may, in our sole discretion, cancel the unperformed Services and retain any pre-paid fees for the unperformed Services.

    5. You are permitted to reschedule the start date of the Services one time, with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice, without Your incurring additional fees. If You request any additional or alternative rescheduling, suspension, or delays, and We agree to such request, You will pay an additional fee equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the applicable fees in each instance when We accommodate the rescheduled or delayed Services.

  2. ACCESS

    As applicable to the Services to be performed, You will provide Us with sufficient, free, safe, and timely access to Your facilities, computer systems and networks to enable Our performance of the Services.

Effect of Termination: Other than in instances where You terminate these Terms for cause, all Orders for Services that We have accepted before these Terms are terminated will remain effective, due, and payable in accordance with the relevant SOW or Order, regardless of whether the Services have been performed.

    1. If You purchase the Services through an Authorized Partner, the payment and tax obligations will be exclusively as between You and the Authorized Partner, and the conditions in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 below (“Taxes”) will not apply as between You and Us.

    2. If You are purchasing the Services directly from Us, You will pay Us all fees within thirty (30) days of the invoice date without any right to offset, counterclaim, holdback, or deduction. We reserve the right to charge interest for late payments on the unpaid amounts calculated at the lesser of (a) 1.5% interest per month; or (b) the highest interest rate allowed by relevant law, accrued, and compounded from the date due until payment is received by Us.

      2. We will separately state on our invoices the Transaction Taxes that We are required to collect from You under applicable law. You will provide proof of any exemption from Transaction Taxes to Us at least fifteen (15) Business Days before the invoice payment due date.

      3. If We do not collect the required Transaction Taxes from You but are subsequently required to remit the Transaction Taxes to any taxing authority, You will promptly reimburse Us for the Transaction Taxes, including any accrued penalty or interest charges if the failure to timely collect and remit was not due to Our fault.

    2. Withholding Taxes.

      1. All payments due from You will be made free and clear and without deduction for any present and future taxes imposed by any taxing authority.

      2. If You are required by applicable law to deduct or withhold income taxes from amounts payable to Us under these Terms (“Withholding Taxes”), You will remit, and provide Us with evidence that You have remitted, the Withholding Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and pay to Us the remaining net amount.

      3. You will provide Us with written notice of Your intent to withhold (including details of the amounts and legal basis for Withholding Taxes) at least fifteen (15) Business Days before the due date for any payments under these Terms or any SOW and will cooperate with We to reduce any Withholding Taxes.

      4. If We provide You with valid and official documentation issued by the relevant taxing authority for a lower rate of Withholding Taxes, then You will apply the lower rate.

    3. Income Taxes.

      Each party is responsible for its own income taxes or taxes based on gross revenues or gross receipts.


  7. CONFIDENTIALITY

    1. Each party acknowledges that it may have access to Confidential Information of the other party in connection with the Terms, and that each party's Confidential Information is of substantial value to the Disclosing Party, which could be impaired if it were improperly disclosed to third parties or used in violation of these Terms.

    2. Confidential Information means any information (regardless of the form of disclosure or the medium used to store or represent it) of a party (Disclosing Party), including trade secrets and technical, financial, or business information, data, ideas, concepts, or know-how, that:

      1. is designated as “confidential” or by similar words by the Disclosing Party at the time of disclosure and, if oral or visual, is confirmed as confidential by the Disclosing Party in writing within fifteen (15) days of disclosure; or

      2. the receiving party (Recipient) should reasonably have considered to be confidential under the circumstances surrounding disclosure.

      However, Confidential Information does not include any information that:


      1. written records demonstrate was lawfully acquired by or previously known to the Recipient independent of the Disclosing Party;

      2. is received from a third-party without restrictions on its use or disclosure and not by in advertence, mistake, or violation of other confidentiality obligations;

      3. is or has become disseminated to the public through no fault of the Recipient and without violation of the Terms or other obligation to maintain confidentiality; or

      4. is created independently by the Recipient without breach of the Terms, including any obligation of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party.

      In addition to the above, the Services and associated fees are deemed Confidential Information.


    3. Each Recipient of Confidential Information under these Terms must:

      1. keep the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information confidential and protect it at least to the same extent it protects its own Confidential Information and to the same extent that a reasonable person would protect such Confidential Information;

      2. not use the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information in any way for its own account or the account of any third-party except to perform its duties, exercise its rights or is otherwise authorized under the Terms; and
      3. not disclose the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information except to perform its duties or exercise its rights under the Terms or as otherwise authorized under, provided that:

        • any disclosure made to the Recipient's employees, contractors or agents is on a need-to-know basis; and

        • the Recipient's employees, contractors, or agents in receipt of the Confidential Information are under an obligation of confidentiality no less stringent than that set forth in this section.

    4. Notwithstanding the restrictions set out above, if the Recipient is required to disclose any of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information by law, such as in response to a subpoena or requirement of any court, arbitral, administrative, or legislative body, the Recipient must:

      1. where reasonably possible and permitted, immediately provide written notice to the Disclosing Party of the required disclosure to give the Disclosing Party an opportunity to move for a protective order or otherwise prevent the disclosure;

      2. disclose only the minimum amount of Confidential Information required to satisfy the legal obligation; and

      3. assert and take proper steps with the body requiring disclosure to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information to be disclosed.

    5. You will immediately notify Us if Confidential Information is used or disclosed in breach of the Terms. As monetary damages may not be sufficient relief if anyone violates or threatens to violate the conditions of this section, either party is immediately entitled to enforce its rights by specific performance or injunction proceedings, in addition to any other legal or equitable rights or remedies it may have.

    6. Upon the Disclosing Party's request and upon termination of the Terms (unless agreed otherwise by the Parties at the time), each party will return, destroy, or delete permanently (at the Disclosing Party's election) the other party's Confidential Information.

    7. On termination of these Terms, the Recipient must continue to keep the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information confidential for five (5) years in accordance with this section.

    8. Feedback. You agree that We have the unrestricted right to use suggestions and feedback that You provide to Us regarding Our Services and products, without notice or payment to You, or Your consent, and that such suggestions and feedback will be Our Confidential Information.
