3. PAYMENTS
3.1 Pricing, Fees, Costs and Expenses.
(a) Generally. The prices and fees charged to the Customer for the Density Products are set forth on the applicable order form. Unless otherwise agreed to by Density and Customer in an order form or other written agreement, Customer agrees to pay Density the amounts indicated for the Density Products Customer orders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
(b) Purchase Models. Density Products are accessible through two pricing models; ‘Platform as a Service’ (“PaaS”) and ‘Hardware Purchase’ (each, a “Purchase Model”), each as described below. The ‘Hardware Purchase’ model is made available to customers only in limited and under exceptional circumstances. Section 3.1(b)(i) and Section 3.1(b)(ii) are applicable to any given order form in the alternative and are mutually exclusive of one another.
(i) Platform as a Service (“Paas”). This section applies only if Customer elects for a ‘PaaS’ purchase model and Section 3.1(b)(ii) shall have no force or effect. Density shall make available to Customer the Density Hardware at no charge; provided that Customer pay cost of freight, insurance, and other shipping expenses, as well as any special packing expense which will, in each case, be charged to the Payment Method (as defined below) upon shipment. All right, title and interest to the Density Hardware shall pass to Customer upon shipment and Customer shall own all right, title and interest in such Density Hardware as of the date of shipment. Customer shall be responsible for any fees, costs and expenses associated with (i) a change of location of previously installed Density Hardware during the term of the Density Subscriptions and (ii) removing, dissembling and/or uninstalling Density Hardware upon expiration or termination of the Density Subscriptions, in each case, subject to the terms of the Density Warranty (as defined below). Customer hereby authorizes Density to charge such expenses to the Payment Method.
(ii) Hardware Purchase. This section applies only if Customer elects for a ‘Hardware Purchase’ purchase model and Section 3.1(b)(i) shall have no force or effect. Unless otherwise agreed in an order form or other written agreement (i) twenty percent (20%) of the price of the Density Hardware ordered pursuant to the applicable order form shall become due and payable and will be charged to the Payment Method upon Customer’s execution of the applicable order form and (ii) the remaining eighty percent (80%) shall become due and payable upon shipment of the Density Hardware, subject, in each case, to any ‘acceptance’ terms agreed to in writing, if any. The cost of freight, insurance, and other shipping expenses, as well as any special packing expense, will be charged to the Payment Method upon shipment. Customer shall be responsible for any costs and expenses associated with (i) a change of location of previously installed Density Hardware during the term of the Density Subscriptions and (ii) removing, dissembling and/or uninstalling Density Hardware upon expiration or termination of the Density Subscriptions, in each case, subject to the terms of the Density Warranty (as defined below). Customer hereby authorizes Density, in each case, to charge such expenses to the Payment Method.
(c) Density Subscriptions. The fees for the Density Subscriptions will be charged to the Payment Method upon commencement of the Density Subscriptions, as set forth in the order form and/or an authorized reseller order form (or similar document). Upon renewal of a Subscription Term, the fees for any renewal Subscription Terms will be assessed at the then-current fee applicable to the Density Subscriptions and will be charged to the Payment Method upon renewal, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Customer may submit a request for upgrade, downgrade or cancellation of the selected Density Subscription plan at any time. Plan downgrades or cancellations will take effect only at the end of the then-current Subscription Term and must be made at least thirty (30) days prior to the next renewal of the Subscription Term (if any) in order to avoid billing of the next renewal Subscription Term’s fees at the then-current rate. Customer will not receive a refund or credit for the remainder of the Subscription Term in the event of any downgrade or cancellation during a Subscription Term. If accepted by Density, Density Subscription upgrades will take effect immediately and Customer will be charged a prorated fee for the remainder of the then-current term based on the difference in price between the current plan and the upgraded plan.
(d) Density Services. Subject to the terms set forth in an applicable order form, the aggregate fees for any Density Services will be charged to the Payment Method upon commencement of such Density Services.
(e) Taxes and Other Costs. Stated fees do not include any related taxes, duties and similar charges (including without limitation sales and use taxes, duties or other governmental taxes or fees), all of which are Customer’s responsibility and will be charged to Customer’s Payment Method in addition to the fees for the Density Products.
3.2 Invoicing Terms. Unless otherwise specified in an executed order form and, in respect of Density Hardware subject to the second sentence of Section 3.1(b)(ii), Customer shall pay Density all amounts set forth in the invoice(s) on net thirty (30) terms following Customer’s receipt of such invoice, subject to any ‘acceptance’ terms agreed to in writing, if any. Customer shall not be entitled to any right of set off and all disputes shall be addressed in accordance with Section 3.6. All late payments for amounts not disputed in good faith with reasonable documentation shall be assessed a ten percent (10%) late fee surcharge, compounding monthly until paid in full.
3.3 Costs and Expenses. Customer shall be responsible for reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Density or its agents, contractors, representatives and personnel in connection with making available the Density Products to Customer, including, without limitation, the reasonably documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with project management and related travel (“Costs”). Costs shall be included as a separate and distinct line item in any applicable invoice issued to Customer and documentation for such expenses shall be made available to Customer upon request.
3.4 Payment Method; Third Party Payment Processors. Density may, from time to time, offer various payment methods, including, by way of illustration, direction to make payment by wire transfers or ACH, by credit card, by debit card, by certain mobile payment providers or by PayPal. Customer (i) authorizes Density to charge Customer for Density Products or (ii) agrees to make payment to Density, in each case, through the payment method determined at the time of purchase of the Density Products (the “Payment Method”). Customer agrees to directly pay all amounts due upon written demand from Density (e-mail sufficient) in the event that Customer’s preferred third party payment provider does not timely effect payment. Customer’s non-termination or continued access to the Density Subscriptions reaffirms that Density is authorized to charge the Payment Method for each renewal Subscription Term.
3.5 Current Information Required. Customer agrees to provide current, complete and accurate billing information and agrees to promptly update all such information (such as changes in billing address, credit card number or credit card expiration date) as necessary for the processing of all payments that are due to Density per the Order Documents. Customer agrees to promptly notify Density if the selected Payment Method is canceled (for example, due to loss or theft) or if Customer becomes aware of a potential breach of security related to any Payment Method. If Customer fails to provide any of the foregoing information, Customer acknowledges that its current Payment Method may continue to be charged for Density Products and it remains responsible for all such charges.
3.6 Payment Matters. If the Payment Method fails or Customer’s account is past due, Density reserves the right to withhold shipment of Density Hardware and to either suspend or terminate Customer’s use of the Density Subscriptions and the rendering of any Density Services. Customer agrees to submit any good faith disputes regarding any charge to its account in writing to Density within 60 days of such charge, otherwise such dispute will be waived and such charge will be final and not subject to challenge. If applicable, Customer agrees to reimburse Density for all collection costs. Density reserves the right to charge Customer interest at the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All fees and charges are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for shipped Density Hardware, any partial Subscription Terms or rendering of Density Services except (a) as expressly set forth in this Agreement or a separate written agreement between Density and Customer, including any executed Order Document; (b) as otherwise required by applicable law; or (c) at Density’s sole and absolute discretion. All prices for Density Products are subject to change without notice.
4. GENERAL
4.1 Subscription Term. Subscription Term will start, renew and end according to the terms outlined above. The Subscription Term is also subject to termination according to the Density Terms of Service.
4.2 Terms of Service; Density Warranty. The Density Products are further subject to the terms of the Density Terms of Service, which is incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Density Hardware is sold with the warranty set forth in the Density Terms of Service (the “Density Warranty”).
4.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with the other Order Documents, constitute the sole and entire agreement of Density and Customer with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. No usage of trade or other regular practice or method of dealing between the parties will be used to modify, interpret, supplement, or alter the terms of the Order Documents. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions hereof and the terms and conditions of a written agreement executed by Density and the Customer, the terms and conditions of such executed written agreement shall govern and control. This Agreement, and any other Order Document, may only be amended, modified, or supplemented by a change order in writing signed by a duly authorized representative of each party hereto.
4.4 Assignability. Customer may not assign its right, duties, or obligations under this Agreement or any Order Document without Density’s prior written consent, to granted or withheld in its sole discretion. As used in this Section 4.3, “assign” includes undergoing any direct or indirect change in control, whether via a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Customer. If consent is given to such assignment, the Order Documents will bind Customer’s successors and assigns. Any attempt by Customer to transfer its rights, duties, or obligations under any Order Document except as expressly provided in this Agreement shall be null and void.
4.5 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given in accordance with the Order Documents will be effective if it is in writing and sent by certified or registered mail, or insured courier, return receipt requested, to the appropriate party at the address set forth in the order form and with the appropriate postage affixed. Density may also contact or be contacted at the email address listed in the order form. Either party may change its address for receipt of notice by notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
4.6 Governing Law. The Order Documents will be interpreted, construed, and enforced in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of California, U.S.A. without reference to its choice of law rules and not including the provisions of the 1980 U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
4.7 Arbitration. The parties agree to resolve all disputes arising under or in connection with the Order Documents through binding arbitration. The arbitration will be held in San Francisco County, California, U.S.A. If Customer is an entity incorporated or formed under the state or federal laws of the U.S.A., the arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If Customer is an entity incorporated or formed under the laws of a foreign jurisdiction, the arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) Rules of Arbitration. If there is a dispute between the parties under the Order Documents, the parties will use good faith efforts to agree upon and appoint one arbitrator no later than 20 days after the notice of arbitration is received from the other party. If the parties do not agree on an arbitrator, the arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the applicable rules of the AAA or ICC (as applicable) for the appointment of an arbitrator. The selection of an arbitrator under the rules of the AAA or ICC (as applicable) will be final and binding on the parties. The arbitrator must be independent of the parties. The arbitrator will conduct the arbitration in accordance with the applicable rules of the AAA or ICC (as applicable). The arbitrator will limit discovery as reasonably practicable to complete the arbitration as soon as practicable. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on both parties. The costs and expenses of the arbitration will be shared equally by both parties. This Section 4.7 will not prohibit either party from seeking injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
4.8 Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the party so waiving. The waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of an Order Document does not waive any other breach. The failure of any party to insist on strict performance of any covenant or obligation in accordance with the Order Documents will not be a waiver of such party’s right to demand strict compliance in the future, nor will the same be construed as a novation of the Order Documents.
4.9 Force Majeure. Density will not be liable for, or be considered to be in breach of or default under any Order Document on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by the Order Documents as a result of any cause or condition beyond Density’s reasonable control, so long as Density uses commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance.
4.10 Updates to this Agreement. From time to time, Density may change, modify, add, or remove portions of this Agreement (each an “Update”), and reserves the right to do so in its reasonable discretion. Subject to the terms of this Section, each Customer shall be bound by such Updates. If Density Updates this Agreement, it will make the Update available here, and the Update will indicate the date of the latest revision. Customer has the obligation and is encouraged to review this Agreement periodically for changes. All Updates take effect as of the date first written above, except that any disputes between Customer and Density which have been communicated in writing to the applicable party prior to the date that such Updates take effect will be governed by the version of this Agreement that was in effect on the date the disputing party provided notice to the other of the dispute. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, under no circumstances do the provisions of Section 4.10 make available to Customer any termination rights not otherwise expressly available to it under the applicable Order Documents and any terms that may otherwise apply including, without limitation, this Agreement. In the event Customer continues to access or use the Density Products following an Update which has become effective, such continued access or use constitutes Customer’s acknowledgement and agreement to the Agreement in effect containing such Updates.
