5. Compensation.
All out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Licensee in the process of referring a Prospect and meeting its obligations under this Agreement are the sole responsibility of the Licesee. On a monthly basis, on Licesee’s monthly billing date, GDSA shall credit Licesee’s bank account with the Licensee Fee payable to Licensee in respect of all Service Fee Revenue actually received by GDSA from an End User referred by Licensee in accordance with this Agreement. Licensee Fees shall not be payable in connection with any End User whose right to make use of the Plan Offering has been terminated by GDSA, in its discretion. Licensee Fees shall be credited against storage fees payable by Licensee in connection with Xxxxxxx’s own use of the Plan Offering. All payments to Licensee in principle shall be paid once per month as GDSA needs to have free and clear payment from End User’s credit card processing.
Service Fee Revenue shall be paid, if at all, by the last day of the month following the date that GDSA actually receives payment for a Plan Offering (which payment shall be made on the last day of such month). By way of example, if a Service Fee Revenue payment is on January 10, GDSA would expect to receive payment on or about February 9 (30 days after first payment) and would expect to pay the Licensee on or about March 31st.
Licensee has also the option of collecting funds directly from End User. In this case, payment to GDSA is due ten (10) calendar days from receiving electronic invoice from GDSA and any late payment older than twenty (20) calendar days shall be ground for suspension of all accounts. Invoices shall be sent at the end of each calendar month. Failure of Licenseeto receive GDSA invoice shall not constitute an excuse for non payment to GDSA for Services rendered.
Payments from Licensee to GDSA shall commence for sales started from January 1st 2018.
