LegalyTech will provide such professional services as the parties may agree, now and pursuant to future Service Level Agreements. The parties agree that LegalyTech will assign individuals (“Resources”) to perform customer-requested services within the scope agreed and pricing outlined of respective Service Level Agreements (“SLA”) attached hereto. Therefore, in consideration of the commitments set forth below, the adequacy of which consideration the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree as follows.

In connection with the performance of this Agreement, LegalyTech will comply with all applicable laws, regulations and orders, including, but not limited to, equal opportunity employment laws and regulations, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Immigration Reform and Control Act, and criminal history record check laws.

  6. Software Licenses. Unless Customer requires to utilize its own internal software to provide the services described herein, LegalyTech will maintain all licenses, permits and other permissions necessary to provide the SaaS Services

  7. Assigned Resources. Assigned resources shall not be eligible for tenure with the Customer or be entitled to participate in any of the Customer's employee compensation schemes and benefit plans. 

 

  1. CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

 

  1. Customer Supervision. The Customer Requested Services to be performed by Resources provided by LegalyTech will be performed under the direction, supervision, and control of the Customer. Customer agrees to provide LegalyTech with detailed information about the assigned duties of the Resources.

  2. Scope of Duties. Customer agrees to use the Resources only in the capacity for which the Customer has requested.

  3. Information Briefing. The customer will provide LegalyTech with all necessary information, and provide adequate instructions, assistance, supervision and time for the Resources to perform the Customer Requested Services. The customer agrees to use the Resources only in the capacity for which the Customer has requested.

  4. Customer Controlled Records.  All records concerning Customer's data to which Resources have access while assigned to Customer shall be owned by Customer to the extent permitted by law. The customer shall have appropriate written internal control procedures for ensuring the confidentiality of all Customers’ data and appropriately limiting Resources' access to such data.

  5. Customer Disclosure. The customer represents that it has disclosed to LegalyTech all screening requirements that Customer would use for the positions covered by this Agreement as if the Customer were directly employing individuals in such positions.

 

  1. PAYMENT OF SERVICES

 

  1. Fees. All fees are due and payable upon contract execution. Please see fees for the period January 2022 to December 2022.

  2. Invoices. Invoices will be issued upon execution of this agreement and the attached Service Level Agreement and shall be due prior to the start.

  3. Annual increase. All fees shall be subject to an increase of four percent (4%) upon completion of each 12-month service cycle.

  4. Invoice disputes. Customer shall notify LegalyTech in writing of any invoice dispute (along with substantiating documentation) within seven (7) business days from the receipt of such invoice. The Customer will be deemed to have accepted all invoices for which LegalyTech does not receive notification of dispute within seven (7) business days and shall pay all undisputed amounts due under such invoices by the due date. The parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith.

  5. Late fee penalty. Late payment of undisputed invoice amounts not paid in full within seven (7) days of receipt, will result in accrual of interest to Customer account, at 1.6% per month for the unpaid amount. Late fees will be payable from the due date of the invoice to the date payment is received.  Additionally, the Customer agrees to pay all reasonable attorney fees and other fees or costs if the account is placed with an attorney for collection.

  6. Notice of Suspension of Service for unpaid fees. Seven (7) days of such written notice, then LegalyTech will promptly withdraw all resources, immediately cease Customer Requested Services and seek alternative options to recover outstanding payments, including all available remedies at law. For clarity, the parties agree that the Customer’s dispute of an invoice shall be resolved as described above in (Section 3, Sub-section 3.3) Invoice Disputes, and shall not relieve the Customer of its obligations to pay undisputed amounts invoiced in accordance with these terms of the Agreement.

  7. Waiver of counterclaims.  Customer waives the right to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature in any dispute with respect to the Agreement.  Any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims must be brought as a separate action subject to the choice of law, forum selection and jurisdictional waiver provisions of this agreement.

  8. Customer authorization. Customer will make payment in accordance with each SLA by ACH or Credit Card to an account designated by LegalyTech. The customer must have a signed EFT or CC authorization form as attached hereto. The signed form must be submitted before any LegalyTech Resource(s) may be assigned. Customer will authorize payment no pursuant to Clause 3.2 above. Failure to initiate payment by the specified date and time will cause LegalyTech to temporarily suspend all Resources until such time that payment details are rectified. 

  9. Retainer. In respect of each authorization for customer requested services, whereas customer elects to utilize ACH or Credit Card as payment methods of choice, LegalyTech shall not require a Retainer. The Retainer is not a substitute for Customer’s timely bi-weekly payment of fees and out of pocket expenses, as defined in the fee payment clause. Whereas an alternative to ACH or Credit Card is requested, Customer is thereby obligated to pay LegalyTech a Retainer equivalent to (1) one month’s service fee, due as such time prior to the performance of Customer Requested Services, in respect to the applicable Authorisation of work as outlined in the attached Service Level Agreement. At the completion or earlier termination of the work in respect of the applicable authorization, without further authorization from Customer, LegalyTech may apply the retainer to any unpaid fees, out of pocket expenses and other charges due to LegalyTech. Any amount of the Retainer that is not required to pay LegalyTech's fees, out of pocket expenses or other charges will be refunded to the Customer at such time.

 

  1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

 

  1. Definition of Confidential Information.  “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Customer’s Confidential Information includes Customer Data; LegalyTech’s Confidential Information includes the Documentation provided in connection with the Services, and Confidential Information of each party includes the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all Client Services Registration Addendums, as well as goal setting plans, technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party does not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (ii) was rightfully known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (iii) is rightfully received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without the use of or reference to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party or (v) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any law, regulation, court order, or any competent authority. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of this Agreement, personal data, and all proprietary and intellectual information exchanged by parties are Confidential Information.

  2. Protection of Confidential Information. The receiving party shall use at least the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of a like nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent (a) use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information for any purpose other than to carry out the terms of this Agreement, and (b) disclosure of such Confidential Information to any person or party other than those who need to know such Confidential Information to carry out the terms of this Agreement and who are bound by written confidentiality agreements, with terms no less restrictive than those included in this Agreement. This Agreement may be disclosed in confidence to legal counsel or other professional advisors with a need to know in the context of a merger, financing or similar transaction or for securities or other regulatory filings. Each party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information would cause irreparable harm to the other party, and would entitle the other party to seek injunctive relief upon disclosure or threatened disclosure, without a requirement to prove irreparable harm or the posting of a bond.

  3. Nondisclosure. Neither party shall use Confidential Information for any purpose other than to facilitate the Services (the “Purpose”). Both parties shall (a) not disclose Confidential Information to any respective employee or contractor unless such person needs access in order to facilitate the Purpose and executes a nondisclosure agreement with such disclosing party with terms no less restrictive than those of this Article 4, subsection 4.3; and (b) shall not disclose Confidential Information to any other third party without the other party’s prior written consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, The receiving party shall protect the Confidential Information with the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature and importance, but with no less than reasonable care. The receiving party shall promptly notify the disclosing party of any misuse or misappropriation of Confidential Information that comes to such receiving party's attention. 

  4. Injunction. Customer agrees that breach of this Article 4 would cause LegalyTech irreparable injury, for which monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation, and that in addition to any other remedy, LegalyTech will be entitled to injunctive relief against such breach or threatened breach, without proving actual damage or posting a bond or other security.

 

  1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (IP) & ASSIGNMENT

 

  1. Customer retains all right, title and interest in the Existing Customer Solution and any other Customer property utilized in the provision of the Services, including but not limited to the Customer Data.  LegalyTech is hereby granted a limited license to use the Existing Customer data, software tools and/or solution(s), where relevant, in the provision of the Services.

    1. LegalyTech warrants that in respect of works of authorship, designs, inventions, improvements, technology, developments, discoveries, and trade secrets conceived, made, or discovered by the Resources in the course of the performance of Customer Requested Services (“New Information”) shall agree to the following in its agreement with LegalyTech:

      1. LegalyTech will assign all intellectual property rights and new information to the Customer; 

      2. If in the course of performing the Customer Requested Services, a Resource incorporates into any New Information on any work of authorship, invention, improvement, or proprietary information, or other materials owned by the Resource or in which the Resource has an interest, Resource will grant to such customer a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to reproduce, manufacture, modify, distribute, use, import, and otherwise exploit the material as part of or in connection with the New Information;

      3. Resources will execute all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, and other instruments that Customer deems necessary in order to apply for and obtain the customer’s rights and in order to assign and convey to Customer, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to any New Information; 

      4. If a Resource’s unavailability or any other factor prevents Customer from pursuing or applying for any application for any United States or foreign registrations or applications covering the New Information and related intellectual property rights assigned to Customer, then the Resource at the time of her/his agreement with the Customer irrevocably designate and appoint Customer as to the Resource’s agent and attorney in fact. Accordingly, the Customer may act for and on Resource’s behalf and stead to execute and file any applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of the registrations and applications with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the applicable Resource.
