1. COMMERCIALS

1.1 Fees, Invoicing, and Payment. The “Fees” means the fees, expenses, and other amounts specified in this Agreement and applicable Order Form. “Order Form” means the ordering document specifying Services to be provided hereunder that is entered into between Customer and Hyperproof. By entering into an Order Form, an Affiliate agrees to be bound by this Agreement as if it were an original party hereto. All amounts payable are: (i) denominated and payable in United States Dollars, (ii) payment obligations are non-cancelable and fees paid are non-refundable, and (iii) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the relevant subscription term. The Fees listed in the Order Form will be fixed for the term listed in the Order. Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Order Form (a) Customer shall pay invoices within thirty (30) days after receipt of electronic invoice; and (b) payment shall be made by ACH or wire transfer to the bank account designated by Hyperproof or by check to the address in the Order Form.

1.2 Subscriptions and True up. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Order Form, (a) Services are purchased as subscriptions for the term stated in the applicable Order Form, (b) subscriptions for a Service may be added during a subscription term at the same pricing as the underlying subscription pricing for that Service, prorated for the portion of that subscription term remaining at the time the subscriptions are added, and (c) any added subscriptions will terminate on the same date as the underlying subscriptions. Customer agrees that its purchases are not contingent on any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by Hyperproof regarding future functionality or features. If Customer’s Program / Module count exceeds the current number of subscriptions (determined on a monthly basis), then Hyperproof will notify Customer (email sufficing) of such overage. If Customer does not reduce the number of actual Programs / Modules to the authorized number within 30 days, Hyperproof will invoice Customer for the excess Programs / Modules (who will then become additional authorized Programs / Modules), prorated for the remainder of the then-current subscription term.  If Hyperproof provides Customer with access to the Service in advance of the start date specified in the applicable Order Form, Customer’s use during that period will be governed by the terms of this Agreement, and the license restrictions set forth herein.

1.3 Term. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues until all subscriptions hereunder have expired or have been terminated. Each subscription term is specified in the applicable Order Form. Each Order Form will specify whether the applicable subscription will automatically renew or expire at the end of the subscription term.  If neither manual or automatic renewals are specified in the applicable Order Form, subscriptions will automatically renew for additional periods equal to one year each, provided that Hyperproof provides written notice of renewal, including the cost for the renewal period, at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the relevant subscription term unless either party gives the other written notice at least 30 days before the end of the relevant subscription term. The subscription fee for the renewal periods will be at Hyperproof’s then-current rate, except as otherwise specified in an Order Form or in the written notice of renewal.

1.4 Termination. A party may terminate this Agreement for cause (i) upon 30 days written notice to the other party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, or (ii) if the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. If this Agreement is terminated by Customer in accordance with this section, Hyperproof will refund Customer any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of all Order Forms after the effective date of termination. Upon expiration or termination of the subscription term or applicable Order Form, access to the Services will terminate and Customer will immediately cease accessing and using the Services

1.5 Taxes. Fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (“Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder. If Hyperproof has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, Hyperproof will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides Hyperproof with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, Hyperproof is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property, and employees.

Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any Order Form to any third party other than its Affiliates, legal counsel, and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that such Disclosing Party remains responsible for its Affiliates, legal counsel, and accountants’ compliance with this section. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure.
