1. Scope of Professional Services Agreement.
1.1 Terms and Conditions of Service. Loftware’s, or its Affiliates’, provision of Professional Services to Company or its Affiliates shall be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and individual Statement(s) of Work.

1.2 Statements of Work. Loftware and Company or any Affiliate may enter into Statements of Work under this Agreement. To be effective, each Statement of Work must be signed by Loftware and Company or the applicable Affiliate. An Affiliate that executes (or is deemed to have executed) a Statement of Work shall be considered “Company” for all purposes of the Statement of Work; provided, however, that Company and such Affiliate shall remain jointly and severally liable and responsible for such Affiliate’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Statement of Work. Each Statement of Work shall be deemed to incorporate the provisions of this Agreement as though such provisions were set forth therein in their entirety, and shall set forth: (i) a project overview; (ii) a description of the Professional Services and deliverables to be provided by Loftware; (iii) the fees to be paid by Company or an Affiliate for the Professional Services and deliverables; (iv) any project-specific assumptions; and (v) such additional terms and conditions as may be mutually agreed upon by Loftware and Company or the applicable Affiliate.

A proposed Change Order will describe the proposed change, the reason for the change, the effect the change is expected to have and the effective date the change will commence. Loftware will submit a written proposed Change Order to Company. Each Party will review the proposed Change Order and either mutually approve it, approve it with modification, or reject it. The amount and payment of any additional fees and/or costs, and any impact on the Professional Services or project schedule, will be agreed upon in writing by both Parties in a final approved mutually-signed Change Order.
2. Division of Labor. Loftware shall, in its sole discretion, determine which of its employees, subcontractors and/or agents shall provide Professional Services pursuant to this Agreement and each Statement of Work. Company acknowledges and agrees that Loftware shall have no obligation to provide and will not provide any Professional Services except for those expressly set forth in Statements of Work that have been executed by the Parties. Company acknowledges and agrees that Loftware has the right to exercise its discretion in regards to when and how Loftware allocates its resources to Company pursuant to any Statement of Work.

Company agrees to pay such invoiced amounts within thirty (30) days of the date of the applicable invoice. If Company fails to pay any invoiced amount when and as due, Loftware shall have the right (in addition to all other rights Loftware may hold under this Agreement, at law or in equity) to (i) charge interest on such unpaid and overdue amounts at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate allowed under applicable law, whichever is less, and/or (ii) cease providing to Company (including all Affiliates) any and all Professional Services under all outstanding Statements of Work.
4.2 Taxes. Company is responsible for the payment of any federal, state, county, local or governmental taxes, duties, or excise taxes, with respect to Loftware’s provision of the Professional Services and delivery of any products or other deliverables in connection therewith. This provision does not apply to franchise taxes, taxes based upon Loftware’s income or any taxes for which Company is exempt.

5.3 License. Company will have a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, perpetual license to use deliverables developed by Loftware in the performance of Professional Services and delivered to Company, upon Company's payment in full of all amounts due hereunder, solely in conjunction with, and consistent in scope with, Company’s permitted use of the software.

The recipient of Confidential Information will take all reasonable steps to ensure the compliance of its directors, officers, employees and subcontractors with these confidentiality provisions.
7.2 Equitable Relief.

10. Miscellaneous.
10.1 Independent Contractor. It is expressly agreed that Loftware and Company are acting under this Agreement as independent contractors, and the relationship established hereunder shall not be construed as a partnership, joint venture or other form of joint enterprise, nor shall one Party be considered an agent of the other. Neither Party is authorized to make any representations or create any obligation or liability, expressed or implied, on behalf of the other Party, except as may be expressly provided for in this Agreement.

Except as stated in the previous sentence, neither Party may assign or delegate this Agreement without the other Party’s prior written consent. Any attempt to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement in violation of this Section is voidable by the other Party.
10.5 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible or considered in breach of this Agreement for any delay or failure in the performance of any obligation of this Agreement to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by acts of God, fires, explosions, labor disputes, accidents, civil disturbances, material shortages or other similar causes beyond its reasonable control (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), even if such delay or failure is foreseeable. Provided, however, that the non-performing Party provides notice of the Force Majeure Event preventing or delaying performance and resumes its performance as soon as practicable and provided further that the other Party may terminate the whole or any part of any affected Statement(s) of Work upon written notice if such non-performance continues for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days.

The award of the arbitrator shall be conclusive. Payment of the expenses of arbitration, including the fee of the arbitrator and attorneys’ fees, shall be assessed by the arbitrator based on the extent to which each Party prevails.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement, as determined by any arbitrator, any court of competent jurisdiction or any appropriate legislature, shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had been omitted. No usage of trade or industry course of dealing shall be relevant to explain or supplement any term expressed in this Agreement.
10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
10.11 Waiver. No course of dealing, failure by either Party to require the strict performance of any obligation assumed by the other hereunder, or failure by either Party to exercise any right or remedy to which it is entitled, shall constitute a waiver or cause a diminution of the obligations or rights provided under this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of either Party, but only by a written instrument signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party to be bound thereby. Waiver by either Party of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default.
10.12 Interpretation. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and a duly executed Statement of Work, the provisions of the Statement of Work shall govern for purposes of such Statement of Work.
10.13 Cumulative Remedies.

10.14 Soliciting for Hire. Company will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire any Loftware employee for employment or services while a Statement of Work is in effect, nor during the twelve (12) month period following the date the Statement of Work expires or is terminated, without paying to Loftware two (2) times the employee’s then-current annual base salary. Any such payment shall not restrict Loftware’s rights or remedies as they relate to the former employee. The Parties stipulate that this payment amount (i) has been agreed upon because the actual amount of damage to Loftware would be uncertain or difficult to prove, (ii) is reasonable and not disproportionate to the presumable loss or injury, (iii) is a liquidated damages provision, and (iv) is not intended to be a penalty.
10.15 Survival. Sections 5.2, 6, 7, 8 and 10 of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Exhibit B
General Assumptions and Risks
1. Company will designate a single point of contact for each Statement of Work who can provide or facilitate effective answers to reasonable technical and operational questions and requests for support that arise during the performance of the Professional Services set forth in such Statement of Work.

2. Loftware is not responsible for any implementation, integration, training, technical support or troubleshooting in connection with any software or technology not licensed from Loftware. The provision of access to any Loftware software products is Company’s responsibility. Any routing, NAT, IP tunneling, DMZ, firewall or other network engineering activities necessary to provide access to the Loftware software products must be performed by Company.
3. Company will provide Loftware with access to building(s), room(s), workspace, network(s), systems administrators, database administrators, business analysts, and other resources, including telephone and Internet access, as deemed reasonably necessary by Loftware to provide and complete the Professional Services set forth in each Statement of Work.
4. Company will notify Loftware in writing of all pertinent security procedures, operations, maintenance, configuration, or systems management policies prior to the start of each project contemplated by a Statement of Work. Loftware is not responsible for compliance with any policies, procedures or requirements that are not so communicated prior to the commencement of the applicable Professional Services.
5. All hardware and/or software and licensing required to perform the Professional Services will be provided by, and are the responsibility of, Company. Company will ensure that all hardware meets any specifications recommended by Loftware and will be onsite and operable prior to commencement of the project contemplated by the applicable Statement of Work.
6. It is Company’s responsibility to perform a full working backup of Company’s environment(s) prior to the commencement of the Professional Services. Loftware is not responsible for any lost or corrupted data.
7. Loftware reserves the right to perform any of the Professional Services contemplated by a Statement of Work, at Loftware’s facilities.
8. Loftware is not responsible for any delays in, or failure to perform, any Professional Services to the extent caused (in whole or in part) by Company’s failure to supply in a timely manner access to Company personnel, materials, information or resources deemed reasonably necessary by Loftware to complete the Professional Services set forth in a Statement of Work. Company acknowledges that its failure to provide any such resources may impact project completion, project cost, completeness of the data collected by Loftware, and the quality of the final documentation. Network reliability and bandwidth between Company’s host applications and the Loftware software products may impact printing performance and robustness. Loftware is not responsible for any environments outside of its control. Company’s firewall or other security mechanisms may prevent access to Company’s printers from the Loftware software products. Not all business rules may be supported by the logic capabilities of the Loftware software products.
9. Company will be responsible for providing Loftware with its own Company user account and password for the duration of the Professional Services set forth in a Statement of Work. Loftware recommends that upon completion of such Professional Services, Company disable this account.
Each project time frame and project fee set forth in a Statement of Work is based on the assumptions outlined above. Should any element(s) of these assumptions prove to be untrue or inaccurate, additional time and/or fees and expenses may be required to complete the applicable Statement of Work. In such event, the Parties shall execute a mutually agreeable Change Order reflecting same.
