5.1 Fees and Expenses. Client will pay Company all Program Fees according to the schedule set forth in Article 4. Company reserves the right to change its Programs or Fee structure at any time, and without notice.

5.2 Payment. Unless otherwise set forth in the Program Terms, Client will make all payments under this Agreement in U.S. dollars according to the applicable program payment schedule set forth in Article 4. Company may terminate Services to Client for nonpayment of Fees. In addition to any other remedy available to Company for late payments, Client will be obligated to pay Company interest on the overdue amount at the rate of one- and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate allowed under law, whichever is less, for each month, or partial month, calculated from the date such payment was due until the date paid. Client will reimburse Company for all costs incurred by Company (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, collection fees, court costs, if any) in connection with any collection efforts related to or arising out of this Agreement.

5.3 Deposit. In addition to the payment for Services, Client must pay a nonrefundable deposit (the “Deposit”) in accordance with the program payment schedule set forth in Article 4. This deposit secures the Client’s place in the Company’s consulting program schedule. Company may, in its discretion, apply the deposit amount as a credit to Client’s final invoice for consulting Services in accordance with Client’s completion of the program.

5.4 Taxes. The Fees for the Services do not include any excise, sales, use, value added or other taxes, tariffs or duties that may be applicable to the Services. When Company has the legal obligation to collect such taxes, tariffs or duties, the amount of such taxes, tariffs and duties will be invoiced to Client, and Client will pay such amount unless Client provides Company with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. All payments by Client for the Services will be made free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes which are otherwise imposed on payments to Company will be Client’s sole responsibility. Client will provide Company with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as is reasonably requested by Company to establish that such taxes have been paid.

6.3 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice if the other party has materially breached any provision of this Agreement and has not cured such breach within five (5) calendar days after receiving written notice from the non-breaching party describing such breach in reasonable detail and stating the non-breaching party’s intent to terminate this Agreement.

6.4 Suspension of Services. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Company may, in its sole discretion, suspend Services and the delivery of a Deliverable if: (a) Client materially breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement including, without limitation, failure by Client to pay any amount under this Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date of Company’s invoice therefor; or (b) Company determines that Client may be unable to make any scheduled or expected payment. Any such suspension by Company: (i) will not constitute termination of this Agreement or any Services (and Client will continue to be bound by its obligations under this Agreement); (ii) will not be deemed to modify the Target Date outward to the same extent as the period of delayed payment, performance, or other material breach; (iii) will entitle Company to reimbursement by Client for any and all costs and expenses incurred by Company in connection with any such suspension; and (iv) may be cancelled or revoked in Company’s sole discretion. Without limiting the foregoing, any such suspension will be considered a delay caused by Client pursuant to Article 3.

6.5 Return of Materials.

All other rights granted under this Agreement will cease upon expiration or termination of this Agreement.

7. Confidential Information

7.1 “Confidential Information” means any information disclosed under this Agreement by either party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”) that: (a) is in written, graphic, machine readable or other tangible form and is marked “Confidential,” “Proprietary” or in some other manner to indicate its confidential nature; (b) oral information disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement, provided that such information is designated as confidential at the time of disclosure and reduced to a written summary by the Disclosing Party, marked in a manner to indicate its confidential nature and delivered to the Receiving Party within ten (10) calendar days after its oral disclosure; and (c) information otherwise reasonably expected to be treated in a confidential manner under the circumstances of disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following information will be deemed the Confidential Information of Company whether or not so designated upon disclosure or confirmed in writing: (i) Company pricing; (ii) Company Pre-Existing Technology and Company Work Product (both defined in Section 8); and (iii) any know-how, designs, layouts, configurations, methods, processes, formulae, specifications, functionality, performance data, test results or error or bug information provided by Company to Client under this Agreement or otherwise obtained by Client from use or examination of the Deliverables. Confidential Information may also include information of a third party that is in the possession of the Disclosing Party and is disclosed to the Receiving Party under this Agreement. Confidential Information will not include any information that: (1) was publicly known and made generally available in the public domain prior to the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (2) becomes publicly known and made generally available after disclosure by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party through no action or inaction of the Receiving Party; (3) was already in the possession of the Receiving Party without confidentiality obligations at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party as shown by the Receiving Party’s files and records immediately prior to the time of disclosure; (4) is obtained without confidentiality obligations by the Receiving Party from a third party without a breach of such third party’s obligations of confidentiality; or (5) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

7.2 Non-Use and Non-Disclosure. The Receiving Party will use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information solely for the purposes of performing its obligations and exercising its rights under this Agreement. The Receiving Party will not disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to third parties or to such party’s employees, except that, subject to Section 7.3 below, the Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to those employees and contractors of the Receiving Party who are required to have the information in order to perform Receiving Party’s obligations and exercise the Receiving Party’s rights under this Agreement, provided however that such employees or contractors are subject to a confidentiality agreement with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. If the Receiving Party is required by law to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise constrained by this Agreement, the Receiving Party will provide the Disclosing Party with prompt written notice of such requirement prior to such disclosure so that the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate relief. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the receiving party may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that it is legally compelled or is otherwise legally required to be disclosed; provided, however, that the Receiving Party provides such assistance as the Disclosing Party may reasonably request in obtaining such order or other relief at the Disclosing Party’s option and expense.

7.3 Maintenance of Confidentiality. The Receiving Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will ensure that its employees who have access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party have signed a non-use and non-disclosure agreement in content at least as protective of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as the provisions of this Agreement prior to any disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to such employees. The Receiving Party will promptly return all copies of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as requested by such Disclosing Party at any time in writing; provided, however, the parties agree that Company’s continued access to Client’s Confidential Information which is required for the Services will be deemed a Client Obligation.

7.4 Authorized Disclosure. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each party may disclose the terms of this Agreement: (a) subject to Section 7.2, in connection with the requirements of an initial public offering or other filing in connection with applicable securities law; (b) in confidence, in connection with a merger or acquisition or proposed merger or acquisition, or the like; (c) in confidence, to accountants, banks, attorneys and financing sources and their advisors; and/or (d) in confidence, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement.
