3.1 Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and continue until the earlier of, expiration or termination of all Order Forms and/or SOWs (the “Term”), or as provided in accordance with this Section. Each Order Form and SOW will have its own term (or renewal term, if any) as stated in such document.

3.2 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement or any applicable Order Form or SOW for cause: (a) upon 30 days’ written notice to the other party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, (b) immediately for material violations of confidentiality obligations, (c) 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, or (d) Client may terminate pursuant to Section 3.2 (Remedy) of the SLA if Ontic fails to meet its SLA Platform Uptime commitment. In the event of termination by Client of this Agreement, any Order Form and/or any SOW due to Ontic’s uncured breach of this Agreement, Ontic shall promptly refund to Client a prorated portion of any prepaid fees for unused Services at the time of such termination.

3.3 Termination Effect. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement: (a) all rights to use the Services shall immediately cease and the provision of Professional Services (if any) immediately ends; (b) within thirty (30) days, each party will return or destroy at the disclosing party’s request the other party’s Confidential Information; and (c) Sections 2.6 – 2.9, 3.3 and 6 – 9 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, as well as such other provisions that by their nature are intended to survive such termination.

Both parties will agree to a mutually acceptable timeframe and secure transfer methodology for the Client Content, which is typically using an SFTP for the transfer. Ontic shall destroy Data, including Client Content, upon the expiration of this time period, unless legally prohibited.

4. FEES AND PAYMENT

4.1 Fees. Client shall pay Ontic all fees specified in each applicable Order Form and/or SOW (collectively, “Fees”) within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Client may withhold payment of Fees that are subject to a good faith dispute if Client provides written notice within ten (10) business days of invoice receipt (“Disputed Fees”). Fees that are not Disputed Fees shall be timely paid, and the Disputed Fees shall be paid within ten (10) days of resolution of the dispute.

4.2 Payment. Fees set forth in an Order Form are payable in advance. Except as provided in this Agreement, Fees are non-cancelable, non-refundable, and based on the Services purchased.

4.3 Overdue Fees. Ontic reserves the right to charge Client interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, or the maximum rate permitted by Law, whichever is lower, on any undisputed Fees not received within fifteen (15) days of the payment due date. Additionally, if any undisputed Fees are more than thirty (30) days overdue Ontic may suspend its performance of the Services, after providing five (5) days’ written notice (email acceptable), until such amounts are paid in full. If any collection efforts are required, Client shall be liable for, and agrees to pay, all reasonable costs of collection, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses. Nonpayment of undisputed Fees is a material breach of this Agreement.

4.4 Taxes. All Fees exclude taxes and Client will be solely responsible for, and agrees to pay, any applicable federal, state and local taxes charged, levied or assessed arising from this Agreement in a timely manner, other than those income taxes based on Ontic’s net income. If Client is tax-exempt, Client shall provide Ontic with its tax-exemption number and certificate within five (5) business days after the Effective Date. Client shall be responsible for any liability or expense incurred by Ontic as a result of Client’s failure or delay in paying taxes due or if Client’s claimed tax exemption is rejected. If Client is legally required to withhold tax from its payment of Fees to Ontic, Client agrees to gross up all Fees that are subject to such withholding tax, such that the net payment received by Ontic is the full originally stated amount of such Fees.

Client may publicly disclose the fact that it is using the Ontic Services, but all details about the uses, functionality or other aspects of the Services shall not be disclosed. This Agreement and Orders or SOWs may be disclosed in confidence to legal counsel or professional advisors who need to know in the context of a merger, financing, audit or similar transaction or the provision of relevant professional advice.

9. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without reference to any conflict of law principles that would apply substantiative laws of another jurisdiction. The parties consent to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas. The Prevailing Party in any legal proceeding in connection with this Agreement may recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, and other costs incurred in connection with such legal proceeding from the other party, in addition to any other relief to which such Prevailing Party is entitled. The reasonableness of such costs and attorneys’ fees shall be determined by the court and not a jury. “Prevailing Party” means that the court finds that the applicable party is the prevailing party, whether or not that party obtains monetary, declaratory, injunctive, equitable or nominal relief. With respect to any monetary claim, no award of damages shall be necessary in order for a party to be found by the court to have prevailed. With respect to any non-monetary claim, no equitable relief shall be necessary in order for a party to be found by the court to have prevailed.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any related Order Form and/or SOW, is the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any pre-printed terms on a purchase order, (which shall have no effect) and all prior or contemporaneous writings, negotiations, and discussions with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement, any Order Form and SOW may only be amended in writing signed by the parties.

10.2 Force Majeure. Neither party will be responsible for any failure or delay in its performance under this Agreement (except for any payment obligations) due to a Force Majeure Event. Both parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to work around the Force Majeure Event as soon as reasonably practicable.

10.3 Injunction. The parties agree that any breach of this Agreement with respect to the other party’s Intellectual Property Rights or Confidential Information could cause irreparable harm and significant injury that would not be compensable by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to those remedies that the non-breaching party may have at law or otherwise, the non-breaching party may be entitled to specific performance, injunction or other equitable relief without posting bond or without proving actual damage.

10.4 No Waiver. Neither party waives any of its rights under this Agreement by lapse of time or by any statement or representation other than by an authorized representative in an explicit written waiver.

10.5 Severability. To the extent permitted by law, the parties waive any provision of law that would render any clause of the Agreement invalid or otherwise unenforceable. If a provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted to fulfill its intended purpose to the extent permitted by applicable law and the remaining provision of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

10.6 Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations, by operation of law or otherwise, without the other party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld). However, either party may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization or a sale of all or substantially all of such party’s assets. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.7 Platform Usage Analysis. Ontic has the worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable right and license to use aggregated, anonymized, and statistical data derived from the operation and use of the Platform (“Statistical Data”) for business and/or operating purposes (including to improve Platform efficiency, Client User efficiency and to provide support), provided that Ontic does not share with any third party Statistical Data that reveals the identity of Client, Client Users, or Client’s Confidential Information, except as permitted pursuant to Section 8.

10.8 Independent Parties. Nothing in this Agreement will create any association, partnership, fiduciary relationship or joint venture between the parties; accordingly, neither may make commitments on the others’ behalf. Each party shall bear responsibility for its own employees, including terms of employment, wages, hours, required insurance, and daily direction and control.

10.9 Conflicts. This Agreement governs in the event there is a conflict between this Agreement and any Ontic policy posted online and any Client-related terms not in this Agreement. The terms of the SOW or Order Form govern matters covered by the applicable SOW and/or Order Form.

10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile or electronic delivery of the signature page hereto shall be deemed an original for all purposes hereof.
