To the extent the terms and conditions set forth in any other agreement are inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and/or a related Work Order(s), the terms and conditions of this Agreement and related Work Order(s) shall prevail.

1. Agreement. Company agrees to provide to Client and its Affiliates the services ( Services ) and to deliver to Client the items, products or other deliverables ( Deliverables ) described in the statements of work or work orders ( Work Order or Work Orders ) executed from time to time by authorized representatives of both parties and which reference this Agreement. The terms and conditions ( Terms ) set forth in this Agreement apply to the Services and Deliverables and are an integral part of and are hereby incorporated into each Work Order. In the event of a conflict between the Terms and the provisions of a Work Order, the Terms shall govern and supersede the provisions of the Work Order unless the Work Order specifically states otherwise. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term Affiliate shall mean any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Client. Nothing contained in this Agreement alone shall constitute a commitment by Client to purchase Services or Deliverables. Such a commitment shall arise only from a Work Order signed by the parties. This Agreement is nonexclusive, and Client may contract with other entities to perform services and provide deliverables related to or similar to the Services and Company may contract with other entities to perform similar services and provide similar deliverables.

2. Work Order. All Work Orders must be accepted within thirty (30) days from date thereof unless otherwise indicated in the Work Order. If a Work Order is not executed within thirty (30) days of the issuance date by Company, then the prices set forth in such Work Order may be subject to change. No Work Orders shall be effective unless mutually executed by the parties. Work Orders shall specify the Services and Deliverables to be provided by Company, applicable fees, invoicing schedule, specifications, project timelines, as well as any requirements which are in addition to the general provisions of this Agreement. Any change in the Services, Deliverables, or other provisions of the Work Order may be made only by a written amendment signed by the parties. Except for Products (as hereinafter defined) and except as otherwise expressly provided in a Work Order, Company shall supply all personnel, equipment, assets and facilities necessary to perform the Services and provide the Deliverables. Upon signature by both of the parties, such Work Order shall be a binding contract between Company and Client. Company shall not commence work on the Services or Deliverables under any Work Order until receipt of such signed Work Order and, if applicable, a purchase order covering such Work Order.

3. Fees; Expenses; Payment. Fees payable under a Work Order are set forth in the Work Order and shall be valid for a period of one year from the effective date of the Work Order.

Company shall invoice Client as set forth in the applicable Work Order. Client shall pay correct, undisputed invoices within thirty (30) days of receipt by Client, unless otherwise mutually agreed in an applicable Work Order, at the address, or email address designated by Client in the applicable Work Order. Client may withhold payment of any invoice disputed in good faith, if Client notifies Company of such dispute within ten (10) days of receipt of such applicable invoice. If Client fails to pay when due any properly invoiced amount that is not disputed in good faith by Client, and does not cure the failure within ten (10) business days of Company s written notice, then Company may suspend all work for Client until such failure is cured (and terminate this Agreement and all Work Orders if payment failure is not cured with thirty (30) business days of work being suspended). If Company brings a legal action to collect the overdue amount, then Company may also collect its reasonable costs of collection, including attorneys fees and court costs. To the extent set forth in the applicable Work Order, Client will reimburse Company for actual, out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Services and other expenses (such other expenses are subject to Client s prior approval) Company will submit its expense invoice, including copies of expense receipts.

4. Acceptance of Deliverables.

In the event of rejection, Client shall provide to Company the reasons for rejection in reasonable detail including a statement of errors explaining the non-conformity of the Deliverables with the applicable Work Order. Company will correct the errors identified in the statement of errors and deliver the corrected Deliverables to Client within fifteen (15) business days (or such other number of days as may be mutually agreed upon) of receipt of the statement of errors. The procedure set forth in this paragraph shall be repeated until Client accepts the Deliverables or the parties agree otherwise. Client will be deemed to have unconditionally accepted the Deliverables if no acceptance or rejection is provided to Company within ten (10) business days of Client s receipt of any Deliverables.

5. Products. To the extent applicable, any samples, content, products, logos, images, writings, intellectual property or other materials, whether to be added or incorporated into the Services or Deliverables or not to be delivered to Client by Company in connection with a Work Order ( Products ) are to be delivered to Client in a timely manner to Client in the manner set forth in the Work Order.
