(“iBase-t” OR “COMPANY”) PURSUANT TO AN ORDER FORM (THE “ORDER FORM”) ENTERED INTO BY iBase-t AND THE CUSTOMER SPECIFIED ON THE ORDER FORM (THE “CUSTOMER”). THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS ALONG WITH THE EXHIBITS ATTACHED HERETO AND THE ORDER FORM (COLLECTIVELY, THE “AGREEMENT”) EXCLUSIVELY GOVERN THE LEGAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CUSTOMER AND iBase-t IN RELATION TO THE SOFTWARE, SUPPORT AND SERVICES OFFERING SET FORTH IN THE ORDER FORM (THE “SERVICES”). COMPANY MAY UPDATE THESE TERMS FROM TIME TO TIME AND THE CUSTOMER AGREES THAT ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS BY CUSTOMER’S REPRESENTATIVES REPRESENT THE CUSTOMER’S AUTHORIZED CONSENT TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT: (I) EXECUTING THE ORDER FORM WITH iBASEt, (II) RECEIVING, REGISTERING OR OTHERWISE USING THE SERVICES, OR (III) BY CLICKING ON THE “ACCEPT” BUTTON UPON REGISTRATION. IF THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT USE THE SERVICES IN ANY MANNER.

1. SERVICES AND SUPPORT

1.1 Company agrees that other Customer affiliates (business entities of which Customer owns or controls more than (fifty percent) 50% of the voting rights or the controlling body of the business entity) may use the Services; provided that prior to any affiliate’s use of the Services each affiliate shall sign and deliver to iBase-t a mutually-agreeable appendix to the Order Form certifying its consent to be bound by, and liable to Company under, the terms of this Agreement.

1.2 Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, iBase-t will provide Customer with the right to access and use the Services during the term of the Agreement, solely for Customer’s own business purposes. Customer’s rights are non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable. Customer may access and use the Services only as permitted by the Agreement. Customer acknowledges that Customer is not receiving any ownership interest with respect to, the Services and Software (as defined below) or any intellectual property rights related to the Services and Software. Customer agrees to take commercially reasonable steps to ensure, through proper instructions, that all access to and use of the Services by Customer and Customer’s authorized users (the “Users”), or otherwise through Customer’s facilities, equipment, identifiers or passwords, will be in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and will be made and used solely for proper and legal purposes, and will be conducted in a manner that does not violate any law or regulation, or the rights of any third party.

1.3 The Services include software products offered by Company, including any documentation relating to or describing such software, as well as improvements or updates provided by Company as part of its Support Policy, (collectively, the “Software”). Such Software is furnished to Customer under an individual, non-exclusive, nontransferable license solely for Customer’s own internal use in compliance with this
license and all applicable laws and regulations. The Order Form shall dictate whether the license is granted on a perpetual basis or a subscription basis and whether the Software is installed on the premises of the Customer (and therefore hosted by Customer) or is hosted by iBase-t using a hosting service provider partner of iBASEt. Customer acknowledges that use and access restrictions for some or all Software’s programs, modules or components may be enabled, tracked and/or enforced by automated license monitoring and control software functions, built in to the Software or provided as separate packages, and that Software may automatically, without intervention or notice, partially or fully restrict use beyond the license limitations if such license limitations are exceeded or if these license monitoring and control functions are disabled, bypassed or otherwise circumvented. If any of the above instances occur, Software may fully cease to operate. Further, Customer acknowledges that compliance with license terms and restrictions is the contractual responsibility of the Customer, without reliance or dependence on the presence or correct operation of such automated license control mechanisms, and that the contractual limitations and responsibilities prevail. Except as may otherwise be permitted in writing by Company, Customer may not utilize license keys for production use, singly or in combination with multiple instances of the software programs, which would permit aggregate usage in excess of the contractually-authorized total licensed usage basis. Company may request Customer’s electronic audit records of user and other activity records collected and stored by the software.

1.4 Third party technology that may be incorporated in or appropriate or necessary for use with the Software as specified in the program documentation. Such third party technology may be licensed to Customer under the terms of the third party technology license agreement specified in the program documentation and/or referenced in the Order Form. If Customer wishes to obtain additional third party software, then Customer acknowledges it is Customer’s responsibility to make provisions for obtaining and properly licensing, as required, the additional software, and that Company is not obligated to provide such additional software, except as may be required by separate written agreement. Upon request, Company will provide identification of any such required additional software.

1.5 Customer will issue a unique User identification and password to enable each User to access and use the Services on behalf of the Customer. Customer is solely responsible for tracking the User IDs to specific Users and for ensuring the security and confidentiality of all User IDs. Customer acknowledges that it is fully responsible for all liabilities incurred through the use of any User ID and that any transaction under a User ID will be deemed to have been performed by Customer. Customer will immediately notify iBase-t of any unauthorized use of a User ID or any other breach of security known to it.

1.6 When making the Services available to Customer from a third party hosted location, iBase-t will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services in accordance with the Service Level Agreement (SLA – iBase-t). For the avoidance of doubt, the Service Level Agreement is not applicable when the Software is installed on Customer’s premises.

1.7 iBase-t will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services in accordance with the Support Policy (SUPPORT POLICY – iBase-t). If Customer licenses the Software via a perpetual license grant, the parties acknowledge that: (i) Customer must separately pay for Support (which Support fee shall be indicated in the Order Form) on an annual basis in order to receive Support; (b) payment for the first year of Support is not optional; (c) after the first year Support shall be optional, but the Support term shall automatically renew for additional annual Support periods, unless either party requests termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current Support term; (d) if Customer terminates Support but subsequently wishes to reinstate Support, it must pay all Support back-fees related to the period of time in which it did not receive Support (in addition to the applicable Support fees related to the foregoing Support period).

1.8 iBase-t will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with its Data Privacy Policy (DPA – iBase-t).

1.9 If Company provides consulting and software development services or any integration, education, training or other services that, including without limitation any services (“Professional Services”) provided pursuant to a Statement of Work signed by the parties (“Statement of Work”), then Customer shall pay for such additional Professional Services at Company’s then current time and materials rates, unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing or on an applicable Statement of Work. Technical implementation will be invoiced monthly based on time incurred. If at any point in the implementation process, Company determines that implementation hours incurred will exceed estimate by more than 10%, Company will notify Customer and obtain an amended Order before proceeding with implementation. Education sessions are invoiced the month following completion of each session. Travel time is billed at 8 hours per day of travel at the resource’s hourly rate for distances over 200 miles and are invoiced monthly at cost. Any travel under 200 miles will be billed at the actual time. Travel time is not included in the estimate in the Statement of Work and will not be included when reviewing the project budget. Travel expenses to be invoiced include, but are not limited to, airfare, lodging, meals, and ground transportation. Company shall determine, and shall be solely responsible for, the method and means of performing the Professional Services. Company may use subcontractors or independent contractors to perform any portion of the work to be performed under this Agreement. Company will supervise and be responsible for any work performed by a subcontractor or independent contractor. Any subcontractor and independent contractor engaged by Company will have a written agreement with Company that contains terms consistent with the confidentiality and intellectual property ownership provisions of this Agreement.

1.10 Customer will: (i) provide qualified personnel who are capable of performing Customer’s duties and tasks under the Statement of Work; (ii) provide Company with access to Customer’s sites and facilities during Customer’s normal business hours and as otherwise reasonably required by Company to perform the Professional Services; (iii) provide Company with such working space and office support (including access to telephones, photocopying equipment, and the like) as Company may reasonably request; and (iv) perform Customer’s duties and tasks under the Statement of Work, and such other duties and tasks as may be reasonably required to permit Company to perform the Professional Services. Customer will also make available to Company any software, data, information and any other materials required by Company to perform the Professional Services, including, but not limited to, any software, data, information or materials specifically identified in the Order Form (collectively, “Customer Materials”). Customer will be responsible for ensuring that all such Customer Materials are accurate, complete and timely delivered. Customer agrees that Company’s performance is dependent on Customer’s timely and effective satisfaction of Customer’s responsibilities described in this Agreement and the applicable Statement of Work and Customer’s decisions and approvals of Company’s work, as required. Each party will designate in the Statement of Work an individual who will be the primary point of contact (the “Primary Contact”) between the parties for all matters relating to the Professional Services to be performed thereunder. A party may designate a new Primary Contact by written notice to the other party

1.11 If Customer is installing the Software at Customer’s premises, the Software shall be deemed delivered upon the earliest of (a) the date that iBase-t places the Software with a shipping agent, F.O.B. Shipping Point, for shipment to the delivery address indicated by Customer, (b) the date iBase-t provides Customer electronic access to the Software by, for example, providing Customer a URL, where the Software is available for immediate electronic download along with access codes permitting download and access to the Software, or (c) the date that Customer actually receives the Software.
