These Terms and Conditions set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which you will access and use the Software and Services set forth in the applicable Order. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meaning set forth in line within the text and within the Schedules.
2. SERVICE AND SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS.
2.1 Generally. onPhase offers licenses to the software program or programs specifically identified in the applicable Order (the “Software”) and provides access to SaaS Services, Payment Processing Services, Professional Services and any other services specified in the applicable Order (collectively, the “Services”). You have purchased access to the Software, as indicated in the Order, either as: (a) a hosted, annual subscription to the SaaS Service (as defined below) (the “SaaS Subscription”); or (b) as an on-premises, device-based license to the Software (the “Software License”).
2.2 End Users. Only End Users may access or use the Software and Services. Each End User must keep its login credentials confidential, and you will promptly notify onPhase if you become aware of any compromise of any End User login credentials or other unauthorized access to or use of the Software or Services through its or its End Users accounts or login credentials. You are responsible for your End Users’ compliance with this Agreement and any actions taken by your End Users through the Software and Services. You and your End Users will comply with all Laws in your and their activities under this Agreement. You may permit your authorized consultants, suppliers, Affiliates, contractors and agents (“Third-Party Users”) to access and use the Software, but only on your behalf in connection with their provision of services to you, subject always to the Agreement. You are responsible for all Third-Party Users’ actions in relation to the Software and Services. You and your End Users will provide to onPhase, in a timely and accurate manner, and format, all data, documents, and other information reasonably necessary or appropriate for onPhase to provide the Software and Services, and any delays or failures attributable to your failure to provide such information are your sole responsibility and at your sole risk. In the event of any delays in your provision of such necessary assistance, onPhase may adjust any agreed timetable, deadline or delivery schedule as reasonably necessary.
2.3 SaaS Subscription. This Section only applies to SaaS Service.
a. Access Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, onPhase hereby grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferrable (except as set forth in Section 13.4), limited right for your End Users to remotely access and use the Software via the internet through the use of web browser as software-as-a-service (“SaaS Service”) in accordance with the Documentation within your Scope of Use.
b. Removal; Suspension. onPhase has no obligation to monitor any content uploaded to the SaaS Service but it may do so at its sole election. Nonetheless, if onPhase deems such action necessary based on a determination that you have violated a material provision of this Agreement or in response to reasonably detailed takedown requests received in accordance with Law, then onPhase may (i) remove Your Materials from the SaaS Service; or (ii) to suspend your access to the SaaS Service. onPhase also reserves the right to suspend your access to the SaaS Service: (1) to address technical, security or other emergency issues with the SaaS Service or any Third-Party Materials; (2) there is an unauthorized third party access to the SaaS Service or any Third-Party Materials; (3) if onPhase believes that you have violated any provision of this Agreement, any Third-Party Materials terms to which you have agreed; (4) suspension is required to comply with applicable law, rules and regulations of any applicable networks (as applicable), or requirements of any other financial institution or third-party provider involved in the SaaS Service or Services; or (5) if your actions or inactions endanger the operation of the Software or SaaS Service, other users, the public or onPhase. In such circumstances, onPhase will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you of the reason(s) for suspension as soon as practicable and promptly reinstate your access to the SaaS Service upon resolution of the issue(s). In no event will onPhase be responsible to you for damages suffered because of a suspension or deletion of Your Materials in accordance with this Section 2.3b. Notwithstanding Section 2.3(b)(3) above, if you have failed to make payment when due under this Agreement, onPhase will provide written notice to you of such failure and will only suspend your account if such failure is not cured within seven (7) days of the date of such notice.
2.4 Software License. This Section only applies to Software purchased under a Software License.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, onPhase hereby grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as set forth in Section 13.4 of the Agreement), personal license during the Term to: (i) install and copy one (1) instance of the Software on one (1) server within your Scope of Use; and (ii) use the Documentation in connection therewith. This license includes the right to retain one (1) copy of the Software and Documentation for backup or archival purposes solely in support of your excise of the license granted herein, provided that all titles, trademark symbols, copyright symbols and legends and other proprietary markings are fully reproduced without modification. If you wish to migrate your instance of the Software from the server where it is originally installed to another server, you are encouraged to contact your onPhase Account Manager and request server migration assistance (which would be billed separately as a Professional Service). You may permit a third party to host the Software solely for the benefit of and access by you and any Third-Party Users, provided that such third party hosting provider agrees to be subject to and bound by this Agreement.
b. Verification and True-Up.
(i) Verification. Upon onPhase’s written request no more than one time in each twelve (12) month period you agree to provide onPhase with a signed statement verifying that the Software and Documentation are being used in full compliance with the Agreement and the Scope of Use. If the foregoing verification activity reveals an underpayment of any amounts payable to onPhase, you will promptly remit the full amount of such underpayment to onPhase. You will be responsible for any fees attributable to use in excess of the Scope of Use.
(ii) True-Up. onPhase reserves the right to conduct a usage analysis (a “True Up”) at any time during the Subscription Term upon written notice to you. If the True-Up reveals that your use of the Software exceeds the consumption thresholds (e.g., Quantity/Monthly Volume) specified in the applicable Order, onPhase will issue a new Order to account for the difference between the quantities purchased and the actual usage. Fees for the excess usage will be detailed in the new Order, and you agree to pay such fees in accordance with the payment terms outlined in Section 5.2.
2.5 Other Services. onPhase will perform (i) Support Services, and (ii) any Professional Services, Payment Processing Services and other Services set forth in an applicable Order, pursuant to this Agreement and any additional terms provided in Schedule 2 to this Agreement, including without limitation, any Payment Processing Terms, if applicable (the “Product Terms”) for the Subscription Term. In the event of a conflict between the Product Terms and these Terms and Conditions, the Product Terms will control.
2.6 Change Orders. You may submit written request(s) to onPhase to change the scope or performance of the Services described in an Order, but subscription amounts may never be decreased. onPhase will, within a reasonable time after its receipt of your request, provide you with a written estimate of: (a) the likely time required to implement the change; (b) any necessary variations to the Fees and other charges for the Services arising from the change; (c) the likely effect of the change on the Services; and (d) any other impact the change might have on the performance of this Agreement. Promptly after receipt of the written estimate, the parties will negotiate in good faith the terms of such change, including a reasonable and equitable adjustment to the Fees or work schedule, as applicable (each a “Change Order”). Neither party will be bound by any Change Order unless and until it is mutually agreed upon in writing.
2.7 Professional Services Additional Terms.

Pursuant to the applicable Order, onPhase may develop or provide documents, work product, and other materials that are delivered to you in the course of performing the Professional Services (collectively, “Deliverables”). As between you and onPhase, all right, title, and interest in and to the Deliverables, including all Intellectual Property Rights therein, are and will remain with onPhase. You have no right, license, or authorization with respect to any of the Deliverables except as expressly set forth in Section 2.7(c).
c. Access to Deliverables.

11. INDEMNIFICATION.
11.1 onPhase Indemnification. Subject to Section 11.3, onPhase will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless you, your Affiliates, and your and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, successors, and permitted assigns against any third party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (each, an “Action”) based on a claim that the Software or Services infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property Right, and will pay all settlements entered into and damages awarded against the such indemnitee (including reasonable outside counsel fees, if any only if onPhase fails to take sole control of such Action as provided in Section 11.3) to the extent based on such an Action; provided, however, that onPhase will have no obligations under this Section 11.1 with respect to claims to the extent arising out of: (a) any express instruction, information, designs, specifications, or other materials provided by you to onPhase; (b) use of the Software or Services in combination with any materials, software, or equipment not supplied to you or specified by onPhase in writing; or (c) any modifications made to the Software or Services by or on behalf of any person or entity other than onPhase. If the Software or Services, or any part thereof, become, or in the opinion of onPhase may become, the subject of a claim of infringement or misappropriation, onPhase may, at its option: (i) procure for you the right to use such Software or Services free of any liability; (ii) replace or modify the Software or Services to make it non-infringing; or (iii) terminate this Agreement and refund to you any portion of the Fees prepaid by you for the infringing Software or Services. THE FOREGOING STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF ONPHASE WITH RESPECT TO THE INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS BY THE SERVICES OR SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE, AND YOU HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY OTHER LIABILITIES OR OBLIGATIONS OF ONPHASE WITH RESPECT THERETO.
11.2 Your Indemnification. Subject to Section, 11.3, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless onPhase, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and permitted assigns against all Actions arising from or related to a claim that: (a) you have violated any applicable Law; (b) you have breached or alleged to have breached Sections 3.1, 3.2, or 6.2; or (c) that Your Materials infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property Right, and will pay all settlements entered into and damages awarded (including any reasonable outside counsel fees, if any only if you fails to take sole control of such Action as provided in Section 11.3) against onPhase to the extent based on such an Action.
11.3 Indemnification Procedures. The indemnifying party will solely control the defense and settlement of the applicable Action. The party seeking indemnification will promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any Action and cooperate with the indemnifying party at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party will immediately take control of the defense and investigation of the Action and will employ counsel of its choice to handle and defend the same, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party will not settle any Action in a manner that requires the indemnified party to pay monies or admit liability or subjects the indemnified party to any ongoing affirmative obligation without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnified party’s failure to perform any obligations under this Section 11.3 will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 11 except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The indemnified party may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense.
12. TERM AND TERMINATION.
12.1 Agreement Term. This Agreement will commence on the effective date of the applicable Order and will continue until the later of (a) the completion of and payment for all Software and Services under all Orders or (b) the expiration of the last Subscription Term under this Agreement, unless earlier terminated as provided for below (both, the “Term”).
12.2 Subscription Term. The Subscription Term for the applicable Software and/or Services will be set forth in the applicable Order, unless earlier terminated as provided for below. For clarity, failure to use the onPhase Technology as of the date that the Subscription Term commences (the “subscription term start date” per the applicable Order) will not be deemed a basis for disputing or refusing to pay all applicable Fees. The Subscription Term will automatically renew upon expiration and the term of the applicable Order will be extended for successive one-year renewal terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) at onPhase’s then-current list price, unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least one hundred and eighty (180) days’ prior to expiration of the preceding period of the Subscription Term.
12.3 Termination. Without prejudice to any other remedies and in addition to any other termination rights herein, each party will have the right to terminate this Agreement or an Order: (a) if the other party commits a material breach of this Agreement, the applicable Order, and such breach remains uncured thirty (30) days after written notice of such breach is delivered to such other party; (b) if the other party makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commences or has commenced against it any proceeding or petition in bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization pursuant to bankruptcy or similar Laws, and such proceeding or petition is not removed within ninety (90) days; or (c) the other party discontinues its business.
12.4 Effect. Termination of an Order will not effectuate a termination of this Agreement or otherwise affect any other outstanding Order unless no other Orders remains outstanding, in which case this Agreement may terminate pursuant to Section 12.1. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, (a) all outstanding Orders and all license rights granted under this Agreement will terminate; (b) all rights, licenses, and access to the Software granted by onPhase to you under this Agreement or such Order, as applicable, will immediately cease; and (c) unless otherwise deleted by you prior to termination, Your Materials will be retained in the Software for seven (7) days and permanently deleted thirty (30) days thereafter.
12.5 Survival. The rights and obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 12.5 and Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4, 5, 6.5, 8, 9.4, 10, 11, 12.4 and 13, will survive any such termination or expiration of this Agreement according to their respective terms.
13. GENERAL.
13.1 Governing Law.

Each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York for the purpose of any suit, Action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement. Each of the parties hereby waives the right to: (a) trial by jury of any suit, Action or proceeding; and (b) participate in a class action relating to this Agreement.

All communications required or otherwise provided under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed given when (a) delivered by hand or (b) delivered or rejected upon delivery by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to the address set forth on the Order, as may be amended by the parties by written notice to the other party in accordance with this Section 13.3. Notice is effective upon delivery to the notice address (or rejection thereof).
13.4 Assignment. Neither party may assign or transfer this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that either party may assign the Agreement without consent to a successor of all or substantially all of the assets of such party through merger, reorganization, consolidation, or asset acquisition. Any attempted assignment, transfer, or other conveyance in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

Alternatively, onPhase may specify that a modification to the Terms and Conditions will take effect during your then-current Subscription Term, following a reasonable notice period; in this case, if you notify onPhase in writing of your objection to the modifications prior to the specified effective date, onPhase will allow you (as your exclusive remedy) to terminate any affected Order and receive a refund of any pre-paid, unused fees for the terminated portion of the applicable Subscription Term for the Order. For the avoidance of doubt, modifications to Terms and Conditions or Product Terms under this Section 13.7 that are not mutually agreed in writing will not materially decrease the overall functionality, security, or privacy of the Software and Services. Continued use of the Software and Services by you after the effective date of the modification will constitute your acceptance of the modified terms.
13.8 Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof will be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
13.9 Subcontractors. onPhase may use Affiliates and subcontractors and permit the foregoing to exercise onPhase’s rights, but onPhase remains responsible for its and its Affiliates and subcontractors’ overall performance under this Agreement.
13.10 Force Majeure.

The Impacted Party will give notice within ten (10) days of the Force Majeure Event to the other party, of the nature and duration of the Force Majeure Event and resume performance as soon as reasonably possible. If any condition constituting a Force Majeure Event continues for a period twenty (20) calendar days, the party not claiming the Force Majeure Event may terminate this Agreement upon five (5) calendar days’ written notice. In the event that either party terminates the Agreement as a result of the Force Majeure Event, neither party will be liable for any loss or damage resulting from the termination.
13.11 Equitable Relief. Each party acknowledges that a breach by a party of Section 2.7 or Section 8 may cause the non-breaching party (including any third party beneficiary expressly identified in this Agreement) irreparable damages, for which an award of damages would not be adequate compensation and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the non-breaching and injured party (including any third party beneficiary expressly identified in this Agreement) will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including a restraining order, injunctive relief, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at Law or in equity. Such remedies will not be deemed to be exclusive but will be in addition to all other remedies available at Law or in equity, subject to any express exclusions or limitations in this Agreement to the contrary.
13.12 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as may be provided in a Schedule attached hereto, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or will confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.
13.13 Relationship of Parties. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute or be deemed to constitute a partnership between the parties hereto or constitute or be deemed to constitute one party as agent of the other, for any purpose whatsoever, and neither party will have the authority or power to bind the other, or to contract in the name of or create a liability against the other, in any way or for any purpose.
13.14 Publication. You agree that onPhase may disclose your name, logo and tradename in a factual listing of its customers, in any media, whether printed, electronic or on-line. For avoidance of doubt, onPhase will not use such materials for any other purpose without your explicit consent.

(v) Payment Transactions; Sanctions Screening. Third-Party Providers may utilize a banking partner in connection with Payment Processing Services. Banking partners may, in their sole discretion, accept or reject any Transaction Request (as defined below) at any time prior to disbursement of any funds to payees.

(vi) Transaction Requests. At all times prior to disbursement, in the event of an accepted Transaction Request, or return to you, in the event of a rejected Transaction Request, your funds will be held by banking partner for your benefit, but need not be segregated from other funds held by banking partner; provided, however, that under no circumstances will banking partner be liable for interest on monies so deposited with banking partner, nor will banking partner be required to invest such monies. Banking partner need not collateralize or provide any security interest for any funds received by banking partner pursuant to this Agreement. Neither this Agreement, nor any transaction contemplated hereby, will create or otherwise connote any fiduciary or other implied or express obligation of banking partner to you.

Banking partner’s only obligations to you are as expressly set forth in this Agreement and banking partner is not, and will not be deemed to be, responsible for the performance of any obligations set forth in any agreement between you and any payee or between any of you, onPhase or an applicable Third-Party Provider, nor will banking partner have any obligation to intervene in any dispute between you and any payee, onPhase or such Third-Party Provider.
(vii) Virtual Card Processing. You and your end customers are responsible for funding all card transactions at time of payment authorization, prior to card account(s) being created for payees. If funding is not received, card accounts will not be created. For any card transactions requiring funds to be returned, such as transactions that have been canceled, expired, or are refunded, those funds will be returned to your dedicated disbursing bank account via an ACH credit. Third-Party Providers may decline to authorize or reverse payments, or suspend virtual card service accounts, for any reason in their reasonable discretion including violation of the applicable third-party terms requiring such declination or reversal, reasonably suspected fraud or reasonable concerns regarding creditworthiness.
(viii) Pre-funded Payments. In the event that the pre-funded amount is insufficient to cover any payments to be made in any form, onPhase or the applicable Third-Party Provider will notify you promptly, and you will provide additional funds as necessary to cover all requested payments. Neither onPhase nor any Third-Party Provider will be obligated to make any payments that exceed the amount available in any pre-funded account and will not be liable for failing to make such payments.
