(c) The Recipients acknowledge that Provider shall have the right to cause third-party subcontractors (“Third-Party Providers”) to provide all or part of any of the Services hereunder; provided, that (i) Provider shall in all cases remain responsible for the provision of the Services to be performed by any Third-Party Provider, (ii) each Third-Party Provider is subject to confidentiality provisions at least reasonably equivalent to those set forth herein and (iii) Provider shall use the same degree of care in selecting any such Third-Party Provider as it would if such Third-Party Provider was being retained to provide similar services to Provider and the use of such Third-Party Provider shall not result in any greater expense to any Recipient than would have accrued had Provider contracted for such services on its own behalf.
3. Cooperation.
(a) Provider hereby appoints Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and the Recipients appoint Xxxxxxx XxXxxxxx (each, a “Relationship Manager”) to supervise, coordinate, and manage the performance by such Party under this Agreement. Each Party shall have the right to replace the individual acting as its Relationship Manager upon prior written notice to the other Party with another person. The Relationship Managers shall operate as the main interface between Provider and the Recipients, and each Relationship Manager shall be responsible for identifying the appropriate individuals within Provider or the Recipients, whichever is applicable, who shall provide information and documentation in order for the Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in good faith in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services. The Relationship Managers shall meet periodically during the term of the Agreement, but in no event less than once a month, to discuss the Services, any concerns with the Services, and to receive updates on the Recipients’ progress towards transitioning off of the Services.
(b) In providing the Services and performing its other obligations hereunder, under no circumstances shall Provider be required to (i) maintain the employment of any specific employee, (ii) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of the Recipients’ data to Provider or any alternate supplier of Services, or (iii) act as guarantor or third party to any agreements transferred to the Recipients that are required for the Services. Provider shall not be obligated to provide any Service in violation of Applicable Law or that Provider’s independent auditors reasonably conclude will result in material deficiencies with Provider’s internal financial controls in connection with the keeping of its financial books and records or the preparation of its financial statements. Subject to Section 6(a), Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary consents, licenses or approvals of any Third-Party Provider of any products or services required to be used in providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement (“Third-Party Products and Services”), at the Recipients’ sole cost and expense. The Recipients understand and agree that provision of any Services requiring the use of any Third-Party Products and Services shall be subject to receipt of any necessary consents, licenses or approvals of the applicable Third-Party Providers and that the provision of the Third-Party Products and Services will be subject to the terms and conditions under the applicable agreements with the Third-Party Providers.
(c) All intellectual property (i) owned by Provider or any Third Party Provider prior to the Effective Date or (ii) conceived, developed, authored, or created by Provider or any Third Party Provider outside of this Agreement during the performance of the Services to be provided to the Recipients, and used by them in connection with the provision of Services (for the sake of clarity, excluding any such items being the property of the Recipients that are provided by the Recipients to Provider to facilitate Provider’s provision of the Services to the Recipients) (the “Provider Intellectual Property”) hereunder shall remain the property of Provider or the Third Party Provider, as applicable, and shall at all times be under the sole direction and control of Provider or such Third Party Provider. Provider hereby grants, and shall cause the Third Party Provider to grant, a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, transferrable and sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license under the Provider Intellectual Property that is specifically and exclusively developed for Recipients for its Use in the current Business of the GSRP Entities and any Permitted Business Sector. Use shall mean the rights to (i) make, use, sell, offer to sell, and import any apparatus, method and system in the

event that Provider Intellectual Property are rights that fall under patent law, (ii) reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute, perform, and display any works of authorship in the event that Provider Intellectual Property are rights that fall under copyright law, and make, use, sell, offer to sell, import, export, market, copy, reproduce, preparte derivative works, distribute, perform and display in the event that Provider Intellectual Property are rights that fall within any other intellectual property.
4. Period of Time During which Services will be Provided.
(a) Unless this Agreement is terminated earlier and notwithstanding an Extension Term as set forth in this Section 4(a), Provider shall provide each Service through and including the respective end date specified for such Service on Exhibit A (in each case, an “End Date”). The Recipients may, upon no less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Provider, request to extend an End Date by the applicable period set forth on Exhibit A (the “Extension Term”). If the Recipients (or the Parties, as applicable) extend an End Date as set forth in this Section 4(a), then the Service Fees with respect to such extended Service will automatically be increased by 15% of the initial cost of such Service during the first Extension Term, and will automatically be increased by 30% of the initial cost of such Service for any additional Extension Terms (and Exhibit A will be deemed to be amended to reflect such increases, as applicable). If the Parties extend the End Date of any Service that has been identified on Exhibit A as being intertwined with one or more other Services, then the End Date of such other Services must also be extended. In the event the Recipients extend an End Date for Regulatory Filings Data/Investor Reporting, then the Service Fees with respect to such extended Service will be exempt from the automatic 15% Service fee increase, and any automatic Service fee increase following any additional extension of said Service.
(b) Except as may specifically be set forth in Exhibit A, the Recipients may terminate this Agreement at any time with respect to any Service upon giving Provider no less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, which notice shall include the effective date of such termination (which may not be fewer than thirty (30) days following Provider’s receipt of such notice, in which event the Recipients shall not be relieved from any obligations arising under this Agreement prior to such termination of any or all of the Services or such obligations respecting those Services it continues to receive and shall be responsible to pay for such terminated Service through the date of its termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the Recipients will not be refunded a pro-rata amount upon termination of any Service with a One Time Fee (as specified in Exhibit A). It is agreed that the Recipients shall pay to Provider the actual, out-of-pocket, third-party costs incurred by Provider directly resulting from such early termination of any Service, which such costs shall be set forth in a written statement, together with reasonable supporting detail for the determination thereof, provided by Provider to the Recipients. Subject to this Article 4, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to a particular Service on the applicable End Date for such Service. This Agreement shall terminate in its entirety upon the termination of the last Service being provided pursuant to this Agreement, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the Parties.
(c) Upon termination of this Agreement, the Recipients shall coordinate and cooperate with Provider regarding the return of certain assets set forth on Exhibit D.
(d) Sections 4(c) (Post-Termination Obligations), 6 (Fees for the Services), 9 (Warranties; Limitations of Liability), 11 (Confidentiality) and 12 (Miscellaneous) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement in whole or with respect to one or more Services.

5. Service Quality; Level of Services; Use of Services.
(a) Provider shall perform the Services for the Recipients in a manner and quality that are substantially consistent with Provider’s provision of Services for the Business during the six (6)- month period immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement (“Baseline Period”) and in compliance with Applicable Law. For any Services for internalization support not provided to the Recipients by Provider prior to the closing of the Internalization Agreement, Provider shall perform such Services for the Recipients in a manner no less favorable than the manner in which Provider provides such Services internally to its own business. Provider shall not be responsible for any inability to provide a Service or any delay in doing so to the extent that such inability or delay is the result of the failure of the Recipients to timely provide the information, access, or other cooperation reasonably necessary for Provider to provide such Service.
(b) The Recipients agree that their use of any and all Services hereunder shall not be substantially greater than or different from, taking into account that the Recipients are now unaffiliated third parties of Provider, their receipt of said services in connection with the Business during the Baseline Period.
(c) The Recipients shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, permit the use of the Services by any Person other than by the Recipients in connection with the conduct of the operations of the Business as conducted during the Baseline Period and consistent with Section 5(b).
(d) In the event that the Recipients hire any personnel of Provider or its Affiliates after the date of this Agreement, the Recipients acknowledge and agree that after the date thereof, Provider shall have no further obligation to provide Services that were provided by such personnel.
6. Fees for the Services.
(a) In consideration for any Services provided under this Agreement, the Recipients shall pay the fees applicable to such Services as set forth in Exhibit A (“Service Fees”) and any additional out-of-pocket costs incurred by Provider in the use of Third-Party Providers to provide the Services; provided, that Provider must obtain the Recipients’ prior written consent for any costs in the aggregate in excess of $100,000. For the avoidance of doubt, such Services Fees represent the total amount due from the Recipients as a whole and not on an individual basis. Subject to Section 4(b), the Recipients shall not be obligated to pay the Service Fees for Services that they do not receive; provided that a failure to meet the service standards set forth in Section 5(a) shall not alone relieve the Recipients of their obligations under this Section 6.
(b) If as the result of any change in the type, configuration and/or level of Services requested by the Recipients, in each case as agreed to by the Parties in writing, Provider expects to incur any additional expenses not reflected in the amounts set forth in Exhibit A, Provider shall notify the Recipients of the expected additional expenses (and obtain the Recipients’ prior written consent if such expenses are expected to exceed $100,000 in the aggregate), and the Recipients shall reimburse Provider for such additional expenses; provided, that if the Recipients do not consent, Provider is not obligated to provide such Services. Provider will submit to the Recipients for payment monthly invoices of amounts due in arrears under this Agreement. Any Services that are monthly fees, expenses or charges will apply to each full month and, on a pro rata basis, to each partial month in which the applicable Service is provided.
(c) To the extent applicable, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating upon the transfer of the Lease to a Recipient, the Recipients shall reimburse Provider for any scheduled lease payments made by Provider or its Affiliates during such period under that certain lease agreement dated February 25, 2019 (the “Lease”) for the office premises located at 000 Xxxx xx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx in Boca Raton, Florida.

(d) Except as may otherwise be specifically provided in Exhibit A, the Recipients shall pay to Provider the undisputed amounts and expense reimbursements set forth in this Section 6 on a monthly basis within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice (the “Initial Payment Date”). Each invoice shall itemize each Service provided to the Recipients and its corresponding Service Fee, and for any Service identified in Exhibit A as having variable costs, Provider shall also provide to the Recipients reasonable supporting detail for the determination of such variable costs. The Recipients may in good faith object to any amounts and expense reimbursements owed by the Recipients to Provider pursuant to Provider’s invoice; provided, that (A) the Recipients shall pay any undisputed amounts and undisputed expense reimbursements and (B) such objection is made in writing to Provider no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the applicable invoice. The Parties shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved between the Parties within thirty (30) days after delivery of any such written objection, the Parties agree to submit the dispute to arbitration, subject to Section 12(e).
(e) If the Recipients fail to make payment for any Services in accordance with this Section, they shall be required to pay, in addition to such unpaid amount, interest on such amount at the rate of interest per annum publicly announced by XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx Bank from time to time as its prime rate in effect at its office located at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx.

(b) No Party shall access, and the Parties will take reasonable actions designed to prevent unauthorized Persons from accessing, the computing systems and/or networks of any other Party without such other Party’s express written authorization or except as otherwise authorized or reasonably required by such other Party pursuant to this Agreement, and any such actual or attempted access shall be consistent with any such authorization or this Agreement.
(c) The Recipients shall comply with any and all rules, policies and procedures of Provider related to the access and use of the information systems, software and data of Provider (as provided to the Recipients in writing and as may be updated from time to time in the ordinary course of business provided, that Provider shall provide the Recipients and its personnel advanced written notice of any modified rules, policies and procedures), including, without limitation, execution of applicable on-boarding documentation, and rules, policies and procedures applicable to non-employees, visitors, and guests of Provider. If Provider determines, in its reasonable discretion, that further screening of the Recipients’ personnel is required because of the access to systems, premises or information contemplated by the Services, then Provider may also conduct background, reference, educational, criminal record, credit and other checks, as well as finger printing and drug screens (where such testing is permissible by Applicable Law), and require additional agreements on confidentiality and security with such personnel in its reasonable discretion, provided that such background check will not be required to the extent that Recipient personnel will only have access to the premises provided by the Services, and not any information systems of Provider. Attached hereto as Exhibit E are the Cyber Security Incident Reporting and Vulnerability Management processes, which the Parties will complete as soon as practicable. Relationship Managers shall review any security concerns, status of security for specific services, and potential incidents.
(d) The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain, and update pursuant to a commercially reasonable schedule, and more frequently in response to specific threats that become known from time to time, a virus detection/scanning program in connection with the connectivity by the Recipients to Provider computing systems and/or networks, which shall be consistent in all material respects with that used by such Parties immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) In no event shall Provider or its Affiliates or the Recipients or their Affiliates have any liability, whether in contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or otherwise, for any special, indirect, incidental, treble, multiple-based or consequential damages whatsoever (except, in each case, to the extent any such amount is awarded to a third party by a court of competent jurisdiction) which in any way arise out of, relate to or are a consequence of, the performance or nonperformance by it hereunder or the provision of, or failure to provide, any Service hereunder, including with respect to loss of profits, business interruptions or claims of customers.
(c) In the event of any breach of this Agreement by Provider with respect to any error, defect or breach in the manner of provision of any Service, Provider shall notify the Recipients in writing and use commercially reasonable efforts to correct in all material respects such error, defect or breach or re-perform in all material respects such Service at the request of the Recipients.

Any such Service Taxes shall be paid directly to the relevant taxing authority by the Party primarily or customarily responsible under Applicable Law for the payment of such Service Taxes; provided, however,

that if the Provider is required to pay such Service Taxes the Recipients shall reimburse Provider for such Service Taxes within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Recipients of an invoice with respect thereto and written evidence of the remittance of such Service Taxes to the relevant taxing authority. If any Recipient is exempt from any Service Taxes, such Recipient shall furnish Provider with a valid and properly completed resale or other applicable exemption certificate, as required under Applicable Law.
(b) If Applicable Law requires that an amount in respect of any taxes, levies or charges be withheld from any payment to Provider under this Agreement, the Recipients shall (i) notify Provider of such required withholding, (ii) withhold from amounts otherwise due to Provider hereunder any taxes required to be withheld, and (iii) remit such withheld taxes when due to the applicable taxing authorities, and the amount payable to Provider shall be increased as necessary so that, after such withtholding, Provider receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such withholding been required (including any withholding imposed in respect of any additional amounts paid hereunder); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount payable to Provider shall not be increased with respect to any tax which is based on Provider’s net income. As soon as practicable after any remittance of withheld taxes to a taxing authority pursuant to this Section 10(b), the Recipients shall deliver to Provider written evidence in a form reasonably acceptable to Provider of the remittance to the applicable taxing authority of such withheld taxes. The Recipients shall provide Provider with reasonable cooperation or assistance as may be necessary to enable Provider to claim exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of, any withholding taxes (including, without limitation, pursuant to any applicable double taxation or similar treaty), to receive a refund of such withholding taxes or to claim a tax credit therefor.
11. Confidentiality.
(a) The non-public, confidential and/or proprietary materials and/or information that may be provided by one Party to any other Party in connection with this Agreement are referred to herein as “Confidential Information.” Each Party (a “Disclosing Party”) agrees not to (i) disclose the Confidential Information of any other Party (a “Non-Disclosing Party”) to any third party or (ii) use the Confidential Information except as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement or implement the Services, in either case without the express written consent of the Non-Disclosing Party.

(c) In the event that a Non-Disclosing Party receives a request, or is required, to disclose any Confidential Information under a subpoena, court order, statute, law, rule, regulation or inquiry issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a judicial or administrative agency, legislative body or committee, or self-regulatory organization (each a “Legal Request”), such Non-Disclosing Party shall, as permitted by Applicable Law, promptly notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such demand for disclosure so that the Disclosing Party may seek to avoid or minimize the Legal Request or obtain an appropriate protective order or other relief, or in the discretion of the Disclosing Party, waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If so requested, the Non-Disclosing Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense against any Legal Request. If the Disclosing Party is unable to obtain or does not seek a protective order and the Non-Disclosing Party is legally required to disclose such Confidential Information, the Non-Disclosing Party will disclose only that portion of the requested Confidential Information that it is required to disclose. The Disclosing Party agrees to reimburse the Non-Disclosing Party for its reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, in connection with action taken pursuant to this paragraph.

(e) Arbitraton; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(i) Except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein, all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise), including the arbitrability of any dispute or controversy that cannot be settled by mutual agreement will be finally settled by binding arbitration appointed in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures (“JAMS”) and this Section 12(e). Any Party aggrieved will deliver a notice to the other Party(ies) setting forth the specific points in dispute. Any points remaining in dispute 20 days after the giving of such notice may, upon ten days’ notice to the other Party(ies), be submitted to JAMS arbitration conducted before a panel of three arbitrators in New York, New York (provided, that if the arbitrators determine in their reasonable discretion that an arbitration cannot be conducted in-person in such location due to COVID-19 Measures or otherwise without jeopardizing the health and safety of the Parties or the arbitrators, then the arbitration may be conducted either in an alternative location or via telephonic or video conference, as determined by the arbitrators in their reasonable discretion). The Provider and the Recipients will each appoint one arbitrator (the “Party-Appointed Arbitrators”) and the Party-Appointed Arbitrators will appoint the third and presiding arbitrator within 14 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator; provided, that, any arbitrator not timely appointed herein will be appointed in accordance with the JAMS upon the written demand of any party to the dispute. The arbitrators may enter a default decision against any Party that fails to participate in the arbitration proceedings.
(ii) The decision of the arbitrators on the points in dispute will be final, unappealable and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrators will only be authorized to interpret the provisions of this Agreement, and will not amend, change or add to any such provisions. The Parties agree that this provision has been adopted by the Parties to rapidly and inexpensively resolve any disputes between them and that this provision will be grounds for dismissal of any court action commenced by any party with respect to this Agreement. In the event that any court determines that this arbitration procedure is not binding, or otherwise allows any litigation regarding a dispute, claim, or controversy covered by this Agreement to proceed, the Parties hereby waive any and all right to a trial by jury in or with respect to such litigation.

No Party hereto (or any Person acting on its behalf) shall have any liability or responsibility for failure to fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) under this Agreement, unless otherwise expressly provided therein, so long as and to the extent to which the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented or delayed as a consequence of any cause beyond its reasonable control, including riots, pandemics (including COVID-19), epidemics, severe weather, fire, flood, war, acts of the public enemy, acts of terrorism, acts of God, embargoes, boycotts, shortages or unavailability of supplies, riots or Applicable Law (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). The Recipients shall not be obligated to pay any amount for the Services that are not performed as a result of a Force Majeure Event (and the Parties shall negotiate reasonably to determine the amount applicable to such Services not performed); provided, however that no Force Majeure Event shall relieve a Recipient from its payment obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Services actually performed hereunder.

Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, (i) in the case of an amendment, by the Parties, or (ii) in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(i) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
(j) No Right of Setoff. No Party shall have any right to set-off or off-set any obligation or payment due to the other Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement against any obligation or payment due or owing to such Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Internalization Agreement.
