3 Fees and Payment.

3.1 Subscription Fees. Customer’s Subscription fees are set forth in the applicable Order Form and are based on the number of End Users and version of the Service purchased. Customer shall pay all fees when due and is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing information to Supplier.io. If such fees are being paid via credit card or other electronic means, Customer authorizes Supplier.io to charge such fees using Customer’s selected payment method. Payment obligations are non-cancelable and fees paid are non-refundable unless otherwise provided herein. The number of End Users purchased under a Subscription cannot be decreased during the applicable Subscription Term. If Customer requires the use of a purchase order or purchase order number, Customer shall provide the purchase order number at the time of purchase. Where Customer designates use of a third-party payment processor network (such as a payment agent, for example), Customer shall be responsible for payment of all fees and charges associated with use of such network. Supplier.io reserves the right to suspend Customer’s account, in addition to all of its other available rights and remedies, in the event that Customer’s account becomes overdue. Suspension shall not relieve Customer’s obligation to pay amounts due.

3.2 Auto-renewal. Customer agrees that its Subscription will automatically renew on an annual or monthly basis depending on Customer’s Subscription (the “Renewal Date”). Customer authorizes Supplier.io to automatically charge Customer for the applicable fees on or after the Renewal Date unless the Subscription has been terminated or cancelled in accordance with this Agreement. If Customer wishes to reduce the number of End Users in its Subscription, it must do so prior to the Renewal Date. Customer must cancel its Subscription prior to the Renewal Date in order to avoid billing of the next period’s Subscription fees. Customer can cancel its Subscription anytime online by going into its account settings and following the instructions provided. If Customer chooses to cancel its Subscription during the Subscription Term, Customer may use the Service until the end of Customer’s then-current Subscription Term or renewal period, but will not be issued a refund for the most recently (or any previously) charged fees.

3.3 Calculation. Subscription fees are based on annual or monthly periods (or pro rata portions thereof, calculated on a daily basis) that begin on the Subscription start date and each annual or monthly anniversary thereof. Subscriptions to the Service are sold on a tiered basis based on the number of End Users. Customer shall purchase a Subscription to the Service for each End User, and the initial number of End Users and tier is reflected in the applicable Order Form. Customer may add End Users to its Subscription at any time on written notice to Supplier.io (email notice acceptable). Supplier.io reserves the right to calculate the total number of End Users periodically and, if the number of End Users exceeds Customer’s current Subscription, then Supplier.io reserves the right to invoice Customer for the applicable tier on a pro rata basis for the remaining period in Customer’s Subscription Term, so that all End User Subscription Terms coincide and are co-terminus. Supplier.io reserves the right to revise fee rates and/or the billable amount structure for the Service at any time and will provide Customer with notice pursuant to Section 11.4 below) of any such changes at least twenty (20) days prior. Supplier.io may charge Customer the then-current pricing for the applicable Subscription if the number of End Users is modified and/or if Customer changes its Subscription plan.

3.4 Taxes. Any fees charged to Customer are exclusive of taxes. Except for those taxes based on Supplier.io’s net income, Customer shall be responsible for all applicable taxes in connection with this Agreement including, but not limited to, sales, use, excise, value-added, goods and services, consumption, and other similar taxes or duties. Should any payment for the Service be subject to withholding tax by any government, Customer shall reimburse Supplier.io for such withholding tax.

3.5 Future Features and Functionality. Customer agrees that any purchases under this Agreement are not contingent on the delivery of any future feature or functionality or dependent on any oral or written public or private comments made by Supplier.io regarding future features or functionality. Supplier.io may release Improvements and other features and functionality in its discretion. Some features and functionality may be available only with certain versions of the Service.

4 Term and Termination. 

This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until all Subscriptions to the Service granted in accordance with this Agreement have expired or been terminated. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party: (a) is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within twenty (20) days following receipt of written notice from the non-breaching party, except that termination will take effect on notice in the event of a breach of Section 1.3 (“Usage Restrictions”); or (b) ceases its business operations or becomes subject to insolvency proceedings and the proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, all Subscriptions and any other rights granted to Customer under this Agreement shall immediately terminate, and Supplier.io may immediately deactivate Customer’s account(s) associated with the Agreement.

Confidential Information specifically includes, but is not limited to, the Service, any Order Form(s) entered into by the parties, Customer Data, Results, business plans, product plans and roadmaps, strategies, forecasts, projects and analyses, financial information and fee structures, business processes, methods and models, and technical documentation.

The receiving party may disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to its employees, Affiliates, consultants, subcontractors, agents, or advisors (“Representatives”) who have a strict need to access the Confidential Information for the purpose of performing under this Agreement and only to those who are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information upon terms at least as protective as those contained in this Agreement.

5.4 Compelled Disclosure. The receiving party may access and disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party if legally required to do so in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding; provided, however, that in such event the receiving party will, if lawfully permitted to do so, notify the disclosing party within a reasonable time prior to such access or disclosure so as to allow the disclosing party an opportunity to seek appropriate protective measures. If the receiving party is compelled by law to access or disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the disclosing party is a party, the disclosing party will reimburse the receiving party for the reasonable costs of compiling and providing secure access to such Confidential Information. Receiving party will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed, and any Confidential Information so disclosed shall maintain its confidentiality protection for all purposes other than such legally compelled disclosure.

7.1 By Customer. Customer shall defend Supplier.io, its Affiliates, and their employees, officers, and directors (together, the “Supplier.io Indemnified Parties”) from and against third party claims, actions, and demands arising from allegations that Customer Data, unauthorized use of the Service by Customer or its End Users, or Supplier.io’s processing of data pursuant to Customer’s instructions infringes a third party’s Intellectual Property Right or privacy right (each, a “Claim Against Supplier.io”), and Customer shall indemnify and hold the Supplier.io Indemnified Parties harmless against any damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and costs finally awarded against Supplier.io Indemnified Parties as a result of, or for any amounts paid by the Supplier.io Indemnified Parties under a Customer-approved settlement of, a Claim Against Supplier.io.

7.2 By Supplier.io. Supplier.io shall defend Customer, its Affiliates, and their employees, officers, and directors (together the “Customer Indemnified Parties”) from and against third party claims, actions, and demands alleging that Customer’s authorized use of the Service infringes or misappropriates any copyright, trade secret, U.S. patent, or trademark right of that third party (each, a “Claim Against Customer”), and Supplier.io shall indemnify and hold the Customer Indemnified Parties harmless against any damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and costs finally awarded against Customer Indemnified Parties as a result of, or for any amounts paid by the Customer Indemnified Parties under an Supplier.io-approved settlement of, a Claim Against Customer; provided, however, in no event will Supplier.io have any obligations or liability under this Section 7.2 to the extent a Claim Against Customer arises from: (a) Customer or any End User’s use of the Service other than as permitted under this Agreement; or (b) use of the Service in a modified form or in combination with products, services, content, or data not furnished to Customer by Supplier.io.

If Supplier.io, in its sole and reasonable judgment, determines that none of the above options are commercially reasonable, then Supplier.io may suspend or terminate Customer’s use of the Service, in which case Supplier.io’s sole liability (in addition to its obligations under Section 7.2) shall be to provide Customer with a prorated refund of any prepaid, unused fees applicable to the remaining portion of the Subscription Term. Sections 7.2 and 7.3 stateSupplier.io’s sole liability and the Customer Indemnified Parties’ exclusive remedy for infringement claims.

7.4 Indemnification Process. The party seeking indemnification shall provide prompt notice to the indemnifying party concerning the existence of an indemnifiable claim and shall promptly provide the indemnifying party with all information and assistance reasonably requested and otherwise cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in defending the claim. Failure to give prompt notice shall not constitute a waiver of a party’s right to indemnification and shall affect the indemnifying party’s obligations under this Agreement only to the extent that the indemnifying party’s rights are materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. The indemnifying party shall have full control and authority over the defense of any claim; provided, however, that any settlement requiring the party seeking indemnification to admit liability or make any financial payment shall require such party’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

In such instances, the terms and conditions governing those non-U.S. services shall take precedence over any conflicting provisions in this Agreement.

11 Miscellaneous.

11.1 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement and any disputes arising under it will be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflict of laws provisions, and each party consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located in Chicago, Illinois.

11.2 Informal Dispute Resolution and Arbitration. The parties agree that most disputes can be resolved without resort to litigation. The parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute directly through consultation with each other before initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. If, after good faith negotiations the parties are unable to resolve the dispute, the parties agree that any and all disputes arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement, including without limitation its existence, validity or termination, shall be resolved according to Illinois law and exclusively by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (JAMS) and pursuant to the then existing arbitration rules at JAMS. If the parties cannot agree upon selection of an arbitrator, then JAMS shall appoint an arbitrator experienced in the enterprise software industry. The place of the arbitration will be Chicago, Illinois unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties. The arbitration will be conducted in English. The arbitrator shall provide detailed written findings of fact and conclusions of law in support of any award. Judgment upon any such award may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties further agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth herein is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the portions of Section 11.3 mandating arbitration shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes. Customer may opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions by sending written notice to Supplier.io. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement between Customer and Supplier.io. If Customer opts out of arbitration, Supplier.io also will not be bound to arbitrate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief as set forth in Section 5.3 (“Equitable Relief”) above and to stop unauthorized use of the Service or infringement of Intellectual Property Rights. Disputes, claims, or controversies concerning either party’s Intellectual Property Rights or claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Service shall not be subject to arbitration. The parties further agree that the prevailing party in any action or proceeding to enforce any right or provisions under this Agreement, including any arbitration or court proceedings, will be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees.

11.3 Notice. Supplier.io may give general notices related to the Service that are applicable to all customers by email, text, in-app notifications, or by posting them on the Supplier.io website or through the Service and such electronic notices shall be deemed to satisfy any legal requirement that such notices be made in writing. Other notices must be sent via email, first class, airmail, or overnight courier to the addresses of the parties provided herein or via an Order Form and are deemed given when received. Notices to Supplier.io must be sent to Supplier.io Legal at [email protected] with a copy to Supplier.io, Inc., 5 Westbrook Corporate Center, Suite 920, Westchester, IL 60154, Attn: Legal Dept.

11.4 Publicity. Supplier.io may include Customer’s name and logo in Supplier.io’s online customer list and in print and electronic marketing materials.

Customer acknowledges and understands that its participation in Beta Tests is not required and is at Customer’s own risk, and that Beta Products are made available on an “as is” basis without warranties (express or implied) of any kind, and may be discontinued or modified at any time. Beta Products are for evaluation and testing purposes, not for production use, not supported, not subject to availability or security obligations, and may be subject to additional terms. Supplier.io shall have no liability for any harm or damage arising out of or in connection with Beta Products. The Beta Products, including without limitation Customer’s assessment of any Beta Product, are Confidential Information of Supplier.io.

Without limiting this Section, a Customer’s End Users are not third-party beneficiaries to Customer’s rights under this Agreement.

11.7 Force Majeure. Supplier.io shall not be liable for delayed or inadequate performance of its obligations hereunder to the extent caused by a condition that is beyond Supplier.io’s reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disaster, civil disturbance, acts of terrorism or war, labor conditions, governmental actions, interruption or failure of the Internet or any utility service, failures in third-party hosting services, and denial of service attacks (each a “Force Majeure Event”). Supplier.io shall be relieved from its obligations (or part thereof) as long as the Force Majeure Event lasts and hinders the performance of said obligations (or part thereof). Supplier.io shall promptly notify Customer and make reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the Force Majeure Event.

11.8 Severability; No Waiver. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to any judicial decree or decision, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and remain enforceable between the parties. No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and a party’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

11.9 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by either party without the other party’s express written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement and all Order Forms under this Agreement upon written notice without the other party’s consent to an Affiliate or to its successor in interest in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the non-assigning party.
