1 Scope of Services

1.1	Thinktiv agrees to provide the services (“Services”) described on separately executed statements of work (the “SOW”) as may from time to time be issued hereunder.
1.2	Each SOW shall define a specific Service authorized by Client, the Service schedule or term, the applicable pricing, and other appropriate terms and conditions.
1.3	Each SOW shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; however, in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and a SOW, the provisions of the SOW shall prevail.
1.4	Thinktiv shall have the right to use third parties (“Third Party Consultants”) in performance of its obligations and Services hereunder and, for purposes of this Agreement, all references to Thinktiv or its employees shall be deemed to include such Third Party Consultants.
1.5	Each SOW shall remain in effect until it has expired on its own terms, is terminated in accordance with this Agreement, or the Service authorized thereunder is completed.
1.6	Client acknowledges and agrees that the Services are advisory in nature only. Accordingly, Thinktiv is not responsible for investigating, and cannot be liable to the Client for or relied upon to disclose, any errors, fraud, or illegal acts that may exist, or any other matters outside the scope of the Services. Further, all advice and services provided to Client in connection with this engagement are intended solely for the benefit and use of Client in connection with the matters described above, and accordingly no such advice or Services shall be relied upon by any person or entity other than Client. Finally, Client acknowledges and agrees that the Services are not in the nature of legal advice, and that with respect to the negotiation and documentation of any transaction, as well as the Client’s review of and entry into this Agreement, Client has been and will be represented by legal counsel of its own choosing.

2 Price and Payment

2.1 The Services provided by Thinktiv shall be at the pricing set forth in the applicable SOW. In the event a SOW does not reference any specific pricing or the Services are not referenced in the SOW, such Services shall be performed at Thinktiv’s then-current standard time and material rates and charges.

2.2 Thinktiv will submit invoices for charges and expenses hereunder weekly. Client shall make payment of each invoice in US dollars within thirty (30) days from the invoice date. Client shall reimburse Thinktiv for all reasonable travel, food, lodging and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in performance of a given Service.

2.3 Any late payment shall be subject to any costs of collection (including reasonable legal fees) and shall bear interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (prorated for partial periods) or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less.

2.4 The charges required to be paid hereunder do not include any amount for taxes or levy (including interest and penalties). Client shall reimburse Thinktiv and hold Thinktiv harmless from all sales, use, VAT, excise, property, or other taxes or levies which Thinktiv is required to collect or remit to applicable tax authorities. This provision does not apply to Thinktiv’s income or franchise taxes, or any taxes for which Client is exempt, provided Client has furnished Thinktiv with a valid tax exemption certificate.

3 Confidential Information

3.1 Each party agrees at all times to keep strictly confidential all Confidential Information (as hereafter defined) belonging to the other party. “Confidential Information” shall mean any information, technical data or know-how including, but not limited to, that which comprises or relates to the other party’s confidential and proprietary trade secrets, hardware, software, screens, specifications, designs, plans, drawings, data, prototypes, discoveries, research, developments, processes, procedures, intellectual property, market research, marketing techniques and plans, business plans and strategies, customer names and other information related to customers, price lists, pricing policies and financial information or other business and/or technical information and materials, in oral, demonstrative, written, electronic, graphic or machine-readable form and any analyses, compilations, studies or documents related thereto.

3.2 Each party shall at all times protect and safeguard the Confidential Information of the other and agrees not to, in whole or in part, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, or disclose the Confidential Information to any third party and shall not copy, reproduce or distribute the Confidential Information except as expressly permitted in this Agreement. Each party shall take every reasonable precaution to prevent the theft, disclosure, and the unauthorized copying, reproduction or distribution of the Confidential Information. The parties agree, however, that Thinktiv may disclose Confidential Information on a confidential basis to a Third Party Consultant in connection with any work that the Third Party Consultant is performing on behalf of Thinktiv.

THINKTIV CONFIDENTIAL

3.3 Each party acknowledges that the other party shall have the right to take all reasonable steps to protect its Confidential Information, including, but not limited to, seeking injunctive relief and any other remedies as may be available at law or in equity in the event the other party does not fulfill its obligations under this Section.

3.4 Each party agrees to restrict access to the other party’s Confidential Information only to those employees and/or Third Party Consultants who (i) require access in the course of their assigned duties and responsibilities, and (ii) have agreed in writing to be bound by provisions no less restrictive than those set forth in this Section.

3.5 Without granting any right or license, the obligations of the parties hereunder shall not apply to any material or information that: (i) is, or at any time becomes, a part of the public domain through no act or omission of the receiving party; (ii) is independently discovered or developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; (iii) is rightfully obtained from a third party without any obligation of confidentiality; or (iv) is already known by the receiving party without any obligation of confidentiality prior to obtaining the Confidential Information from the disclosing party. In addition, neither party shall be liable for disclosure of Confidential Information if made in response to a valid order of a court or authorized agency of government, provided that notice is promptly given to the party whose Confidential Information is to be so disclosed so that such party may seek a protective order and/or engage in other efforts to minimize the required disclosure. The parties shall cooperate in seeking the protective order and engaging in such other efforts.

3.6 Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Thinktiv from using in any manner or for any purpose it deems necessary, the know-how, techniques, or procedures acquired or used by Thinktiv in the performance of Services hereunder.

Upon payment, all Deliverables are “works made for hire” to the extent allowed by law. In the event any Deliverables are not deemed “works made for hire,” upon payment Thinktiv hereby assigns and transfers all right, title and interest in the Deliverables to Client.

4.2 To the extent that any Deliverable incorporates any software or other materials (including design, coding, user interfaces, visual elements and data models) developed prior to or independently of the Services for Client or for which Client does not pay (“Non-Custom Elements”), Thinktiv retains ownership in such Non-Custom Elements and upon payment for the Deliverable incorporating the Non-Custom Elements, grants to Client a worldwide, nonexclusive, license to reproduce, distribute, perform and display (publicly or otherwise), and otherwise use and exploit the Non-Custom Elements and derivative works thereof solely in connection with the applicable Deliverable.

4.3 Notwithstanding anything contained herein, all general know-how, systems, software (including any modifications, enhancements, and updates), documentation, tools, utilities, methodologies, specifications, techniques and other materials resulting from Thinktiv’s performance of the Services (together with the intellectual property rights therein but excluding any Client Confidential Information) shall vest in Thinktiv.
