IF CLIENT ACCEPTS ON BEHALF OF A BUSINESS OR LEGAL ENTITY, CLIENT REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS CLIENT HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THAT LEGAL ENTITY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND \u201cCLIENT\u201d WILL REFER TO THAT LEGAL ENTITY. This Master Service Agreement governs Client\u2019s use of Netsurit Services and incorporates the Terms of Service (as set forth in Section 1 below) that Client agrees to if Client uses a Service. Capitalized words are defined in the last Section or when first used throughout this Agreement.<\/p>

    Use of all Netsurit Services is subject to the applicable Terms of Service. Client may use the Services only pursuant to such applicable Terms of Service. Client agrees to immediately notify Netsurit of any known or suspected breach of any Terms of Service or any other unauthorized use of the Services and to assist Netsurit in the enforcement of the same. In the event of a conflict between provisions that appear in different documents, the order of precedence will be the applicable Order, Terms of Service, and this Agreement. Netsurit may unilaterally amend this Section to add additional Terms of Service. 1.1.1.\u00a0\u00a0 Managed Services<\/p>

    1.1.2.\u00a0\u00a0 Support Services<\/p>

To request a credit, Client must submit to the Client\u2019s Chief Technology Adviser a written request containing sufficient detail to identify the affected Service within thirty (30) days after the incident the Client alleges the Service Level in question is not met. In no event will the total credits issued to Client in any given month exceed the monthly recurring charges for the affected Service during that month.

    If Client provides Netsurit with reports, comments, suggestions, ideas or other feedback regarding the Services or Netsurit\u2019s business, whether written or oral (collectively \u201cFeedback<\/strong>\u201c), Client does so without any expectation of compensation. Client hereby grants Netsurit a worldwide, irrevocable, transferable, perpetual, royalty-free right and license to use the Feedback to improve the Services, develop new Services and for any other purpose, including in all media now known and later developed. Feedback is strictly voluntary and Netsurit is not required to hold it in confidence.<\/p>

    1.6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aggregate Data<\/strong><\/p>

    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or otherwise, Netsurit may evaluate and process use of Services and Content in an aggregated and anonymous manner, meaning in such a way that the individual is not or no longer identified or identifiable (referred to as \u201cAggregate Data<\/strong>\u201c). Netsurit may use such Aggregate Data to improve the Services, develop new Services, understand and\/or analyze usage, demand, and general industry trends, develop and publish white papers, reports, and databases summarizing the foregoing, and generally for any purpose related to Netsurit\u2019s business. Netsurit does not share Aggregate Data. Netsurit retain all Intellectual Property Rights in Aggregate Data. For clarity, Aggregate Data does not include personally identifiable information or information that can identify any Client, individual or User.<\/p>

    1.7. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Use of Log Data<\/strong><\/p>

    Operational data concerning use of the Services, including but not limited to, information servers automatically record relating to the access and use of the Services, such as IP address, authentication tokens, machine identification, access logs, device settings and Client Portal settings (collectively, \u201cLog Data<\/strong>\u201d) are processed by Netsurit to provide and the Services, develop new Services and operate and improve Netsurit\u2019s business and Client agrees that Netsurit may use such Log Data for such purposes.<\/p>

    1.8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Evaluation Use<\/strong><\/p>

    If a Service is being used during a trial or evaluation, this Agreement and the applicable Terms of Service (except for the payment obligation) will apply for the purpose and term of such authorized evaluation or trial period only, and not for the term of a valid Service Subscription for the Service. Netsurit reserves the right to terminate any such evaluation use of the Service at any time in Netsurit\u2019s sole discretion.<\/p>

    1.9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Use of Third Party Technology<\/strong><\/p>

    Certain Services may involve or allow the use of third party technology, the use of which is subject to such third parties\u2019 license terms. These terms are included as appendices to the Terms of Service, and Client\u2019s use of a Service is deemed Client\u2019s express consent to all such applicable terms. As to all such third party technology: (i) it is provided by Netsurit on an \u201cAS IS\u201d basis, without warranty of any kind, and (ii) Netsurit will not be liable for damages of any kind, including direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, nor will Netsurit indemnify Client for any claims related to any third party technology.

    When Client places an Order for a Service, the terms of this Agreement, and not any of Client\u2019s pre-printed terms will govern the Order, and any of Client\u2019s pre-printed terms will be null and void.

    3.2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Order Acceptance<\/strong><\/p>

    Client\u2019s receipt of an order confirmation does not signify Netsurit\u2019s acceptance of Client\u2019s order, nor does it constitute confirmation of Netsurit\u2019s offer to sell. Netsurit may at any time after receipt of Client\u2019s order accept or decline Client\u2019s order, or elect to supply less than the quantity Client ordered, for any or no reason. Netsurit may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order. Client\u2019s order will be deemed accepted by Netsurit upon Netsurit\u2019s delivery or registration confirmation of the Services Client ordered. Any delivery date Netsurit provides is an estimate only and Netsurit will not be liable for failure to meet any estimated delivery date. All sales of products are subject to the return policies as described in the referencing Order. Any pricing errors, unintentional misrepresentations of Service availability or features (\u201cErrors<\/strong>\u201c) will be corrected by Netsurit as soon as practicable following discovery. Netsurit reserves the right to revoke any quote, cancel any order or adjust amounts due, as applicable, where Errors affecting an order are discovered. Netsurit\u2019s sole obligation if Netsurit cancels an order due to Error will be to refund any amount already paid.<\/p>

    3.3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Service Fee<\/strong><\/p>

    Fees for Services are quoted separately on Client Order(s) by Netsurit in writing. Netsurit reserves the right to change Netsurit\u2019s prices at any time upon 30 days\u2019 advance notice. Client\u2019s continued use of the Services after notice of a change to Netsurit\u2019s fees will constitute Client\u2019s agreement to such changes. Fees are subject to an increase of up to three (3) percent per year.<\/p>

    3.3.1.\u00a0\u00a0 Any additions in either quantity or type to the Services described in the Order may incur an additional monthly fee. All costs related to changes in Service or increases in quantity are the responsibility of the Client.<\/p>

Travel outside the five boroughs is billed at the Hourly Rate based on travel time from Netsurit\u2019s New York City office to the Client\u2019s location plus any expenses related to the cost of transportation.<\/p>

    3.3.6.\u00a0\u00a0 Labor performed outside of Business Hours is subject to a rate of time and a half.<\/p>

    3.4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Term Length<\/strong><\/p>

    The term of a Service Subscription is indicated on the applicable Order. A term is either for one month (a \u201cMonthly Term\u201d) or for a defined number of consecutive months (a \u201cCommitted Service Term\u201d). Certain Services and\/or discounts may be available only when purchased with a Committed Service Term.<\/p>

    3.5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Renewals<\/strong><\/p>

    The term of a Service Subscription for a Monthly Term or a Committed Service Term will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis unless renewed by Client for an additional Committed Service Term or terminated by Client\u2019s providing Netsurit with timely written notice of cancellation. For a Monthly Term, notice of cancellation must be received by Netsurit no later than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the effective month of cancellation. For a Committed Term, notice of cancellation must be received by Netsurit no later than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the effective month of cancellation. Any Service Subscription that is not renewed for an additional Committed Service Term or timely cancelled as required above will be renewed automatically for the following month on the date immediately following the date on which such notice of cancellation was required under this Section.<\/p>

    3.6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Payment Terms<\/strong><\/p>

    Client agrees to pay all charges applicable to the Services ordered by Client including, but not limited to, one-time charges, monthly recurring Service subscription charges, and any additional usage-based charges, including data overage or additional user charges. Fees and payments will be calculated by Netsurit solely based on records maintained by Netsurit. Client must notify Netsurit of any payment dispute in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a disputed invoice. Prices do not include taxes, duties, and fees (including shipping, and handling) unless otherwise quoted. Forms of payment accepted by Netsurit include credit card, check, and ACH\/wire., although the available payment options may vary based on Client\u2019s location (each a \u201cPayment Method<\/strong>\u201d). Client must designate a Payment Method with each Order. By providing Netsurit with a Payment Method, Client authorizes Netsurit to automatically charge that Payment Method, or any updated Payment Method Client provides, for all charges and fees incurred in connection with the Service Client order. Client represents (i) that the Payment Method and related information is valid, accurate, current, and complete, and (ii) Client will maintain and promptly update the Payment Method and related information in order to keep it valid, accurate, current, and complete. Netsurit reserves the right to change Netsurit\u2019s approved Payment Methods at any time and will use reasonable commercial efforts to alert Client to any such changes. Client must provide Netsurit with complete and accurate billing and contact information including Client\u2019s complete legal name, street address, e-mail address and the name and telephone number of an authorized billing contact. Client agrees to update this information within three (3) days of any change. Payments are due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Notifications of late payments are given by Netsurit to Client at fifteen (15) days and thirty (30) days past due. Any balance thirty (30) days past due may result in suspension of all support services. Fees will continue to accrue during any such suspension. Netsurit may terminate any Service Subscription at its discretion, effective immediately, for non-payment that is not substantially cured within sixty (60) days after Client\u2019s receipt of written notice.<\/p>

    3.7.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Collection of Fees<\/strong><\/p>

    All amounts payable by Client will be made without setoff or counterclaim, and without any deduction or withholding. Netsurit may charge interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law) on late payments. If Netsurit is unable to collect any amount owed, Netsurit may take any other steps deemed necessary to collect such fees, and Client will be responsible for all Netsurit\u2019s incurred costs such as collection fees, court costs and attorneys\u2019 fees. Furthermore, in the event of non-payment of Fees, following notice of such non-payment, Netsurit may suspend or terminate Services, including access to or the right to continue to purchase new Services or use Services already purchased hereunder until payment is made in full.<\/p>

    3.8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Title; Risk of Loss<\/strong><\/p>

    All new orders for physical Services will be shipped from Netsurit freight prepaid and billed to Client; title and risk of loss to such physical Services will pass to Client upon shipment from Netsurit or to any customs officials or border authority.<\/p>

    3.9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Shipments Made to Certain Jurisdictions<\/strong><\/p>

    Client may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied when the Service arrives at the destination that Client specified or the Service is otherwise received. Any charges for customs clearance are Client\u2019s responsibility, as Netsurit has no control over such charges and cannot foresee the amount charged (if any). Since customs policies vary from country to country, Client should contact the customs office in the country where Client has Netsurit ship Services to get more information. Client is considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of such jurisdiction.<\/p>
