3. CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATIONS

Customer agrees to provide and maintain at its sole expense all Customer Systems and is responsible for upgrading and configuring Customer Systems to be and remain compatible with the Products and Formed AI Technology. Formed AI shall not be liable under the Agreement with respect to the Customer Systems and Materials, including the failure by Customer to timely provide the Customer Systems and Materials. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness and intellectual property rights to use, and the provision and maintenance of, all Customer Systems and Materials in connection with the Products. To the extent that Customer includes personal or consumer information within Customer Materials, Customer, and not Formed AI, shall be solely responsible for such information and compliance with all applicable law relating thereto, including any notices or remedies that may be required to be provided to any party, and Customer shall indemnify and hold Formed AI harmless against any liability that may arise in connection with such information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Formed AI remains responsible for its confidentiality obligations under Section 12 below.

During implementation of the Products, the Customer agrees to:

Designate a person known as the Customer Project Manager who will have the authority to act on behalf of the Customer in all matters regarding the project and statement of work. The Customer Project Manager will be responsible for facilitating all communications between the Customer and Formed AI, and for cooperating as to issue resolution, activity scheduling, interview scheduling, and information collection and dissemination. The timeliness of communications and other activities will directly affect our ability to meet agreed upon schedule deadlines;
Ensure that Formed AI has access to the account(s) associated with the relevant Formed AI software offerings and all related infrastructure, networks and facilities;
Provide Formed AI with a work area for personnel if on-site work is required, which shall include access to any required network, servers, printers, Internet connection (to support a Virtual Private Network connection), and a working telephone;

4. CUSTOMER’S AUTHORIZATIONS

Customer authorizes Formed AI: (i) to use and disclose Customer Materials to the extent necessary to provide the Products; (ii) as may be applicable for any given Product, to act on behalf of Customer to facilitate electronic document receipt when available from Customer-selected, electronic submission-ready vendors, including the facilitation of email and data only submissions

5. FEES AND PAYMENT

The fees for the Products are set forth on the approved statement of work or any/all applicable quotations or invoices. Customer agrees that invoices for the fees and any other amounts due and payable to Formed AI under the Agreement may be sent by check or transmitted electronically. Customer will give Formed AI complete and accurate billing and contact information, including Customer’s legal name, street address, email address and the name(s) and telephone number(s) of authorized billing contact(s) and administrator(s). Customer agrees to update this information as soon as practicable following any changes.

Unless otherwise noted in an invoice or statement of work, any services will be performed during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm local time, excluding holidays). To the extent that Customer requires services to be provided outside of normal business hours, if acceptable to Formed AI in our reasonable discretion, a Change Order may be issued, which may include an increase to the applicable Fees. All fees are independent of any travel or other expenses incurred by Formed AI in relation to onsite work (if applicable) and related charges, which shall be separately invoiced. Unless expressly included in an invoice or statement of work, (i) the scope of any services does not include system administration activities such as creating user accounts, adding users to groups, managing attribute lookup data and related activities.

Any amounts due to Formed AI are payable via check or electronic funds (ACH, EFT or wire) and due within fifteen (15) days from the invoice date. Any late payment not disputed by Customer in good faith in writing by the applicable due date shall bear interest at the rate of 2.5% per month (prorated for partial periods), calculated daily, until payment is received by Formed AI. For the avoidance of doubt, Formed AI shall have no obligations under this Agreement until it has received cleared funds to cover the fees (for that period) of the Formed AI software support relating to the relevant Formed AI service and/or product. Customer shall reimburse Formed AI for any out-of-pocket costs incurred to collect past due amounts (including reasonable legal fees). Failure to timely collect any invoice amounts shall not constitute a waiver by Formed AI to collect or receive such amounts. Formed AI reserves the right to refuse to provide Products while any accrued and undisputed amounts remain unpaid. Notwithstanding any such suspension, Customer shall remain liable to Formed AI for all amounts payable under the Agreement.

If Customer is billed for any portion of the Products by an authorized reseller of Formed AI, Customer and Formed AI agree that the billing terms between Customer and such authorized reseller will govern Customer’s payment of the Service fees and related charges. Customer further agrees that if such reseller notifies Formed AI that Customer is in default of its payment obligations and instructs Formed AI to suspend the Products for non-payment, Formed AI shall have the right to suspend the Products without any obligation to verify such default has occurred and will make the Products available again when notice is received from the reseller that Customer has paid all past due amounts.

If, through no fault of Formed AI in the delivery of the products or services per a signed quote, invoice or SOW, the Customer cancels the contract:

a) After the signing of the formal quote or payment of the related invoice but before the completion of the statement of work (SOW), the customer will be refunded any paid amounts LESS fifteen percent (15%) of the total amount due for the project.

b) After the signing of the SOW but prior to UAT, the customer will be refunded any paid amounts LESS the sum of i) fifteen percent (15%) of the total amount due for the project; and ii) the amount of work completed on the project based on hours expended as determined by Formed AI in its sole discretion.

c) After the project has been handed off by Formed AI to the Customer for UAT, no refund will be issued.

If the Customer, or any of the Customer’s vendors or third-party providers, does not respond to requests by Formed AI for any information required to continue a project for a period of four (4) weeks or longer, or puts a project on hold for longer than eight (8) weeks, no refunds will be given if the project is ultimately not completed or is cancelled by either party.  In addition, projects delayed by eight (8) weeks or more will be subject to a fifteen percent (15%) restart fee, payable prior to the restart of the project.  Any expenses incurred by Formed AI as a result of a delayed or cancelled project, including price increases by its vendors for performing the services, will be borne by the Customer.

Fees and charges for the Products are exclusive of all taxes, levies, duties or other assessments by governmental authorities (collectively, “Taxes”), and Customer shall be responsible for payment of all Taxes in connection with the Products or arising from the Agreement, excluding only amounts based on Formed AI income. Formed AI shall add to each invoice, and Customer shall pay to Formed AI, any applicable Taxes. If any taxing authority determines at any time that Formed AI has incorrectly determined or not collected any Tax liability for which Customer is responsible, Formed AI, as applicable, shall have the right to invoice Customer for Taxes determined by such taxing authority to be due and owing or shall refund to Customer Taxes previously collected in error once such amounts have been refunded to Formed AI by the taxing authority.

6. PROJECT MANAGEMENT, GOVERNANCE AND THIRD-PARTY INTERACTIONS

As needed based on the scope of the SOW, Formed AI will assign a project manager to proactively manage and control the scope and budget of the project as well as direct the work of our resources. All personnel who work on the Products by or on behalf of Formed AI (“Personnel”) are (i) either regular, full or part-time employees or subcontractors that have valid work authorizations to the extent required by applicable law; and (ii) bound by agreements that contain obligations related to intellectual property and confidentiality no less restrictive than those set forth herein. We retain the exclusive right to select the Personnel that will provide the Professional Services and to make changes as required in our discretion. We are fully responsible for the performance of such Personnel who are providing Professional Services in connection with the SOW.

Formed AI shall have the right to use third parties, including independent contractors and the employees of Formed AI Affiliates, in the performance of its obligations under the Agreement at no additional expense to Customer. Customer agrees that no employees of Formed AI or its contractors shall be required to individually sign any agreement with Customer in order to provide Products, including access, security, facilities or confidentiality agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agreement is for the sole benefit of Formed AI and Customer and their respective successors and permitted assigns; and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever.

7. TERMINATION

The Agreement may be terminated prior to expiration of the term by either party upon the failure of the other party to perform any material obligation that is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice and demand for cure from the affected party or within such longer period of time that may be agreed upon by the Parties. Except as may be expressly agreed to otherwise by the Parties, termination of the Agreement by a party shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies available to such party.

8. RENEWAL OF AGREEMENT

This agreement will be automatically renewed on the day following the last day of the initial signed contract.

9. VARIATION

Formed AI has the right to increase their usage, licensing, service, support, and/or processing fees up to 5% per year without notice, unless noted otherwise within the pricing proposal and/or approved statement of work. Formed AI may vary their non-financial terms of this Agreement relating to Support on one month’s written notice by email to the email address given on registration. Whenever such notice is given Customer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if Customer has notified Formed AI in writing of their intention to terminate before the end of the notice period. Except as set out above, no amendment or variation shall take effect unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each of the parties. Without prejudice to any other rights, Formed AI may terminate this Agreement if Customer fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or if Customer suffers any form of insolvency.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

All intellectual property rights and any analogous rights of any nature created prior, during, or after the provision of the Agreement are the property of Formed AI. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or restrict Formed AI from using and exploiting any intellectual property rights, techniques, tools, ideas or know-how created, used or developed during the provision of the support for the Agreement for any purpose whatsoever. Customer will keep Formed AI fully indemnified against all reasonable costs, claims, expenses, judgments and liabilities suffered by Formed AI that arises through infringement of third-party intellectual property rights in any software or other material Customer has combined with the Formed AI’s Products when Formed AI is performing its obligations in accordance with this Agreement.

13. CONFIDENTIALITY

Each party may disclose (the “Discloser”) confidential and proprietary information (“Confidential Information”) to the other party (the “Recipient”) in connection with the performance of the Agreement. The Recipient shall hold such Confidential Information in confidence and shall not disclose it except to its employees or agents who have a need to know such Confidential Information in order to perform the Recipient’s obligations under the Agreement.

Neither party shall have any rights in the other party’s Confidential Information and shall return or destroy all such Confidential Information upon the termination or expiration of the Agreement or upon receipt of written notice from the Discloser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the Recipient shall not be required to return to the Discloser or destroy those copies of Confidential Information residing on Recipient’s backup, disaster recovery, or business continuity systems and that the obligations hereunder with respect to such Confidential Information shall survive until it is destroyed from such systems by the Recipient and for such additional period specified in this Section.

The terms and conditions of this Section shall survive termination or expiration of the Agreement for a period of three (3) years; provided, however, with respect to any information provided by the Discloser concerning the infrastructure or security of its computing network, these terms and conditions shall continue until such information is no longer protected as Confidential Information by the Discloser.
