2. TERM AND TERMINATION

2.1 Term and renewal. The Term of this Agreement shall be for the duration of all Services pursuant to this Agreement. The initial Term for Services shall commence on the Effective Date of this Agreement and shall continue for a period of one (1) year when activated with NoMachine Enterprise Software, unless agreed otherwise with NoMachine and stated in the Customers’ Purchase Order or the invoice issued by NoMachine. Services activated when purchasing a Network Subscription shall continue for one (1) month or one (1) year according to the chosen subscription period. By default, the renewal term for Subscriptions is for the same duration as the billing term for the original Subscription. The term for Services will renew automatically unless Customer gives notice to NoMachine of its intention to not renew before the termination of the subscription period, and notice must occur at least 7 days before the subscription is set to expire. Any renewal of Services ("Renewal Term") will start from the previous expiry in order to continue to receive the Services and is payable at the applicable annual or monthly rate available on the NoMachine website www.nomachine.com ("Website") or as quoted by NoMachine.

2.2 Termination for Breach. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the EULA, NoMachine may terminate this Agreement (a) in the event Customer fails to pay an invoice when due and doesn’t pay such invoice within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of the failure to pay, (b) in the event Customer commits a material breach of this Agreement and fails to remedy that breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of material breach, or (c) as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Customer may terminate this Agreement in the event NoMachine commits a material breach of this Agreement and fails to remedy that breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of material breach. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy of NoMachine, in the event either party terminates this Agreement, Customer will pay NoMachine for all Services provided up to the effective date of termination.

2.3 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Sections 2.3, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of this Agreement will survive such termination.

3. PRICING, PAYMENT AND FEES

3.1 Fees and Expenses. Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, NoMachine shall invoice the respective fee for Services at the date of the Contract Term, and, if applicable, subsequently at the beginning of each Renewal Term (collectively, the "Fees") for the Services. For Services related to Enterprise Software, Customer agrees to pay NoMachine for each Installed System. The parties agree that the terms of this Agreement will govern future purchases by Customer of additional units of any or all of the Services listed herein. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, during the term of this Agreement, such additional units can be purchased and renewed at the rates made available on the Website, exclusive of taxes and expenses, if any, or as agreed between the parties. Customer is responsible for the payment of any and all such taxes. Bank and credit card charges shall be borne by the Customer. NoMachine reserves the right to amend subscription Fees or institute new Fees at any time upon reasonable advance notice posted on the Website, on your NoMachine Account, or sent via email. Any changes to the pricing will not affect your current subscription period and will become effective upon Subscription renewal.

3.2 Recurring Payment. All Subscriptions renew automatically by default at the completion of the billing term. If supported by your payment method, payment of the Fees is recurring. By default, recurring payment for any purchase is turned on when you use a payment method that supports recurring payment (credit card and Paypal), and turned off when you use a payment method that does not support recurring payment (such as bank transfer). Recurring payment can be revoked from within the User Area at least 7 days before the subscription renews using the revoke button.

3.3 Canceling your Subscription. You may cancel your Subscription for any reason within 14 (14) calendar days of your initial purchase and you will receive a full refund of the amount you paid. Refunds beyond the 14-day purchase window will be considered, at the sole discretion of NoMachine. If Customer can demonstrate that the Services were not available or usable during the subscription period and that reasonable attempts were made to contact NoMachine to resolve the issue, NoMachine may provide the Customer with a pro-rata refund of Fees paid during the period when the Services were not available or usable. Refunds are generally processed within seven (7) days, and are made to the original form of payment used for purchase. All refunds are sent in USD or EURO and therefore the refund amount could differ from the amount originally paid in local currency (e.g., due to foreign exchange and processing charges linked to your method of payment).

3.4 Pricing and Invoicing. Customer agrees to provide NoMachine with accurate and complete billing information (including legal name, address, telephone number, and billing or credit information). Customer will report to NoMachine all changes to this information within thirty (30) days of the change. NoMachine reserves the right to suspend or cancel performance of all or part of the Services and/or change its credit terms if actual payment has not been received within sixty (60) days of the invoice date. All fees are stated, and must be paid, in United State Dollars or Euros. If NoMachine has approved Customer to be invoiced, then NoMachine will invoice Customer for the total fees at the time of execution of the Agreement, and payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date and any additional fees shall be due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. NoMachine may not change the terms of this Agreement during a Contract Term for which Customer has paid the applicable Fees, provided, however, that this Agreement is subject to change by NoMachine, in NoMachine’s sole discretion, upon any renewal of the Services by Customer. At each such time of renewal, NoMachine’s then-current terms and conditions for the Services shall be provided to Customer prior to the renewal.

3.5. Chargebacks. We reserve the right to immediately suspend access to the Services, without prior notice, in the event we receive notice of a Chargeback (as defined below). Contacting your bank or credit/debit card provider and rejecting, cancelling or contesting the charge of any fees payable in connection with your use of the Services (a "Chargeback") will be considered a breach of your payment obligations under these Terms. We also reserve the right (although we are not obliged) to dispute any Chargeback received in connection with your NoMachine Account. We may choose to delete your NoMachine Account and take reasonable steps to restrict your future access to our Services if we believe at our sole discretion that you have maliciously requested a Chargeback.

3.6 Taxes. If Customer is required under any applicable law or regulation, domestic or foreign, to withhold or deduct any portion of the payments due to foreign, federal, state, or, excise, use, or similar taxes, then the sum payable to NoMachine will be increased by the amount necessary so that NoMachine receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had Customer made no withholdings or deductions.

4. LICENSE AND OWNERSHIP

4.1 Software and Network Service. Customer will have rights to the Software set forth in the EULA in Appendix 2, as applicable. As between the parties, NoMachine retains all right, title and interest in and to the Software (including any customization and Release Versions) and Network Service, and in all copies, modifications and derivative works including, without limitation, all rights to patent, copyright, trade secret, know-how, trademark and other proprietary or intellectual property rights.

4.2 Marks. In entering this Agreement, no right or license, express or implied, is granted hereunder for the use of any of NoMachine or Customer trade names, service marks or trademarks.

4.3 Enterprise Subscriptions. Each Subscription for Enterprise Software grants you one (1) license to use the Enterprise Software and receive the associated services as declared in Appendix 1.

You can run as many Network Connections as your Network Subscription permits from one of your devices.

5. ASSISTANCE

Customer may provide NoMachine access to the Installed Systems, if entitled, and other client information, systems, and software ("Customer Information") as reasonably requested by NoMachine to enable NoMachine to provide the Services. Customer understands and agrees that the completeness and accuracy of and extent of access to the Customer Information provided to NoMachine may affect NoMachine's ability to provide Services. Customer will obtain any third party consents necessary to grant NoMachine access to the Customer Information that is subject to proprietary rights of, or controlled by, any third party. Customer may, for legitimate security concerns, deny NoMachine certain access to Customer Information and the Installed Systems, provided, however, that NoMachine shall be relieved from performing Services which reasonably require such access.

6. REPORTING AND AUDIT

6.1 Reporting. Customer will promptly notify NoMachine if the number of Installed Systems exceeds the number of Installed Systems for which Customer has paid the applicable fee. In its notice, Customer will include both the number of additional Installed Systems and the date(s) on which such Installed Systems were put into use. NoMachine will invoice Customer for the applicable Services for such Installed Systems on a pro-rata basis and Customer will pay for such Services in accordance with this Agreement.

6.2 Audit. During the term of this Agreement and for one year thereafter, subject to Customer’s reasonable security policies and procedures, Customer expressly grants to NoMachine the right to audit Customer's use of the Installed Systems, including any records reasonably relevant to such use, for the sole purpose of verifying Customer's compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any such audit shall only take place during Customer's normal business hours and interfere as little as possible with Customer’s business activities, and upon no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice from NoMachine. NoMachine shall conduct no more than one such audit in any twelve-month period except for the express purpose of assuring compliance by Customer where non-compliance has been established in a prior audit. Any information disclosed by Customer pursuant to this section shall be Customer’s Confidential Information. NoMachine shall give Customer written notice of any non-compliance, and if a payment deficiency exists, then Customer shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice to make payment to NoMachine for any payment deficiency. The amount of the payment deficiency will be determined by multiplying the number of under-reported Server/Node Subscriptions by the annual fee for such item. If Customer is found to have under-reported the number of NoMachine Server and NoMachine Nodes by more than five percent (5%), Customer shall, in addition to the annual fee for such item, pay liquidated damages equal to twenty percent (20%) of the under-reported fees for loss of income and administration costs suffered by NoMachine as a result.

2.5. Customer Computer Systems. Customer will be responsible for performing operations on Customer’s computer system and NoMachine shall have no responsibility to perform operations on Customer’s computer system. Customer acknowledges that NoMachine’s ability to perform certain Support Services may be conditioned upon access to certain Customer Information and access to Customer’s computer system as reasonably requested by NoMachine. Such information may include, but is not limited to, the type of hardware Customer is using, a description of the problem for which Customer seeks Support Services, and additional software Customer is using that falls outside the Support Services scope of coverage. Customer understands and agrees that the completeness and accuracy of the information Customer provides to NoMachine may affect NoMachine’s ability to provide Support Services.

It is Customer's responsibility to ensure that NoMachine is provided with an updated email and phone contact. The number of contacts to be provided is set out in the section 3.3.

3. SERVICE LEVEL INFORMATION FOR THE SUPPORT SERVICES

3.1. Scope of Services. A valid Subscription for NoMachine Enterprise Software entitles Customer to receive technical assistance related to the Installed System. A valid Subscription for NoMachine Network entitles Customer to receive assistance for the Network Connection. Customers must purchase and renew Services for Subscriptions which belong to the same support level. For example, if Premium has been chosen for a set up of Cloud Server and Enterprise Desktop nodes, any additional Subscriptions must also be Premium level.

3.2 Initial and Ongoing Response Times Guidelines. A response to a request for Services shall consist of receipt of and/or acknowledgement by NoMachine of Customer's request for Services. NoMachine will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond promptly to each Support Request within the published response times. NoMachine does not guarantee resolution time as that may vary on the nature of the problem. A resolution may consist of a fix, workaround or other solution NoMachine deems reasonable.

With Premium/Mission Support Severity 1 (Critical) issues, NoMachine will use best efforts to provide a workaround or resolution until the incident can be downgraded to a lower severity, and response time adjusted accordingly.

The severity of a support case may be changed downwards by the NoMachine Support Team during the case resolution process as a result of the following developments:

• If a temporary or workaround solution is provided to mitigate the material impact of the problem;

• If Customer’s authorized technical contact does not engage cooperatively in resolution efforts.

• If the customer overestimated the severity of the issue and consequently associated an incorrect level to the problem.

However, Customer acknowledges and understands that no software is perfect or error free and that, despite NoMachine's commercially reasonable efforts, NoMachine may be unable to provide answers to or resolve some or all requests for Services. NoMachine makes no promises, guarantees, or assurances of any kind that it will be able to resolve all Customer Services requests.
