    Trial Period; Payment. If you are a party to an Acquired Contract, Sections 5.3 through
    5.5 below shall apply to your Services during the Transition Period.

    • 5.1

      30-Day Initial Service Period.
      For new Customers located in the U.S. or Canada, FluentStream offers an introductory period which starts
      on the earlier of (i) the Service commencement date or (ii) the date of your Customer Service Order, and
      continues for a period of thirty (30) calendar days (“Initial Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      if the Service you ordered is, or may be subject to, Usage Fees (as defined below), you may be required
      to provide FluentStream with a valid payment method and authorize recurring electronic payments, make a
      non-refundable deposit and/or to make such other payment arrangements for Usage Fees as FluentStream may
      require. If you do not wish to continue the Services after the Initial Period, you may terminate the
      Agreement and, if applicable, receive a refund of any advance payment (other than a non-refundable
      deposit), less any Usage Fees (as defined below), by providing written notice to FluentStream prior to
      the expiration of the Initial Period. Usage Fees are not included in the Initial Period and will be
      billed on the following billing cycle. For purposes of this Section 5.1, a new Customer is one who (a)
      has not ordered or subscribed to any FluentStream Services for at least twenty-four (24) calendar months
      preceding the date of the Customer Service Order for which Customer claims eligibility for an Initial
      Period, and (b) is not a party to an Acquired Contract.

    • 5.2
      Fixed Fees; Usage Fees.
      • 5.2.1

        Unless otherwise agreed in a Customer Service Order Acquired Contract, all fees for Services and
        Equipment will be billed in U.S. dollars and are subject to change in FluentStream's sole
        discretion. Current fees for Services and Equipment will be specified in the Customer Service
        Order, or, in FluentStream's discretion, may be posted at www.fluentstream.com from time to
        time. FluentStream may, but shall not be obligated to, post advance notice of a fee increase on
        its website.

      • 5.2.2

        You shall pay fixed user, plan or subscription fees monthly applicable to your Services and/or
        Equipment (collectively, the “Subscription Service Fee(s)”) as specified in an applicable
        Customer Service Order, plus all applicable Taxes and Regulatory Fees, in advance. The
        Subscription Service Fee for the first month’s Service will be invoiced during that month and
        payable immediately. The Subscription Service Fee will be prorated at the number of calendar
        days remaining in the month if Services do not commence on the first calendar day of that month.
        Thereafter, Customer shall pay the Subscription Service Fee in advance pursuant to Section 5.3.
        If Customer upgrades, uses or consumes Services or features that are not included in Customer’s
        Subscription Service Fees as previously invoiced, FluentStream may increase Customer’s
        Subscription Service Fees to reflect the current retail rates associated with the plan or
        subscription features Customer is using. Features included with each plan or subscription can be
        found at www.fluentstream.com.

      • 5.2.3

        In addition to the applicable Subscription Service Fee, you are also responsible for variable charges for the following: (i) calls under any usage-based plan; (ii) international calls, inbound toll-free calls, SMS/MMS, and calls to high rate rural areas; (iii) directory assistance; (iv) call recording; (v) data storage and any other variable or non-recurring charges or fees for services not specifically included in the Subscription Service Fees (the foregoing collectively, “Usage Fees”), and associated Taxes and Regulatory Fees. The Trial Period does not apply to Usage Fees, and you are responsible for all Usage Fees accrued during the Trial Period, which Usage Fees shall not be refunded. Usage Fees for voice Services are computed in full-minute increments, rounded up, based on Customer’s use and other variable factors at the per-minute rate current at the time of the call, and shall be payable monthly in arrears for use incurred prior to a cut-off date selected by FluentStream. Usage Fees for non-voice Services and the method for computing the same shall be specified in the applicable Customer Service Order.

    • 5.3
      Payment Processing.
      • 5.3.1

        Customer shall make all payments hereunder in U.S. dollars. You must provide a valid email
        address and electronic payment method to FluentStream for payment processing, and you are
        required to notify FluentStream immediately if your email address or payment method changes or
        expires. By providing a valid electronic payment method, Customer authorizes FluentStream to
        automatically charge such electronic payment method for Subscription Service Fees, Usage Fees,
        Taxes and Regulatory Fees invoiced to Customer no earlier than the second (2nd) business day
        following FluentStream’s electronic transmission of the invoice to Customer’s email address on
        file. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if you are a Customer under an Acquired
        Contract and had provided electronic payment information to your previous provider, your
        continued use of the Services constitutes your consent to FluentStream charging such payment
        method. If FluentStream has to process Customer’s paper check for payment, FluentStream may
        charge a check processing fee equal to fifteen ($15) U.S. dollars, which fee may be placed on
        the Customer’s next monthly invoice or invoiced separately, in FluentStream’s sole discretion.

      • 5.3.2

        We will make commercially reasonable efforts to deliver monthly invoices to you via electronic
        delivery, and you agree that no paper statements will be mailed to you. Invoiced amounts will
        include the Subscription Service Fee plus any Usage Fees. All fees, except Usage Fees, are
        billed in advance. Usage Fees are billed in the month after they are incurred. Customer agrees
        to pay for all set-up fees and any advance fees required for Equipment upon FluentStream’s
        acceptance of the Customer Service Order. Invoices for Subscription Service Fees are for your
        convenience only. You are not relieved of your obligation to pay Subscription Service Fees in
        the event that you do not receive an electronic invoice, and payment for all fees will be
        processed automatically in accordance with Section 5.3.1.

    • 5.4

      Late Payment; Interest. Payment shall be considered late if not received by
      FluentStream by the due date on the invoice delivered to Customer. Except as otherwise specified in
      Section 5.1, all payments, including those paid in advance, are non-refundable. If payment is overdue by
      ten or more days, FluentStream may suspend or terminate any portion or all of the Services until such
      amounts are paid in full, and if such late payment continues for 30 days or more, FluentStream may
      charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month calculated daily and compounded
      monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable law. The preceding shall in no way
      limit FluentStream’s other rights and remedies available under this Agreement or at law. In the event
      that payment is returned due to insufficient funds, Customer shall pay a processing fee for the return
      of funds. Customer shall reimburse FluentStream for all reasonable costs incurred by FluentStream in
      collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency
      fees. Your obligation to pay any outstanding balance shall survive the termination or cancellation of
      Services and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

    • 5.5

      Taxes. The price for Services does not include any custom duties, Taxes or
      Regulatory Fees. Customer is responsible for all Taxes and Regulatory Fees due on or related to the
      amounts payable by Customer hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on FluentStream’s income.
      FluentStream may invoice Taxes to Customer unless Customer provides FluentStream with an appropriate
      exemption certificate, updated annually.

    • 5.6

      Credit Inquiries. You authorize FluentStream to: (a) make inquiries and receive
      information about Customer’s credit history; (b) store this information in your Customer file; and (c)
      disclose such information to appropriate third parties for reasonable business purposes. FluentStream
      reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to provide Service based upon creditworthiness, or
      alternatively, to require you to pay a deposit in order to receive Services. Such security deposit will
      be returned to you, without interest, upon the expiration or termination of Services, provided that all
      amounts due hereunder to FluentStream have been paid in full. FluentStream shall have the right to use
      the security deposit, in part or in full, to offset any of your unpaid amounts due to FluentStream
      hereunder

    • 5.7

      Promotions and Discounts. FluentStream may offer initial discounts for Equipment
      or Services in its discretion. If you decide to cancel or suspend your Services within the first year of
      your initial service period, you automatically forfeit all discounts and promotions, and you will be
      responsible for the Services used at their current rate. Further, if you are provided with free or
      discounted non-leased Equipment and your Services are canceled or suspended during the first year of
      service (from the date of your first invoice), you agree to return the free or discounted phone within 5
      business days or pay the full retail price for each free or discounted device as of the date of the
      applicable Customer Service Order. You acknowledge and agree that FluentStream may charge your credit
      card on file or take other corrective action as FluentStream deems necessary to enforce and ensure
      compliance with these terms.

  • 6.Services; Equipment.

    • 6.1

      Orders. (a) Customer shall place a Customer Service Order for Services and/or
      Equipment, via a customer portal accessible from FluentStream’s website at www.fluentstream.com, or by
      submission of an executed order form provided or approved by FluentStream. Customer Service Orders will
      be effective upon Customer’s submission of a signed Customer Service Order unless rejected by
      FluentStream. FluentStream may reject a Customer Service Order in whole or in part upon notice to
      Customer, and any Customer Service Order or portion thereof rejected by FluentStream shall be void and
      of no force or effect. If FluentStream agrees to terms or conditions in a Customer Service Order that
      are in addition to or differ from the terms and conditions in this Agreement, FluentStream shall
      explicitly so state in its acceptance of the Customer Service Order or other written communication
      executed by FluentStream. FluentStream shall be under no obligation to accept any additional or
      different terms or conditions, and no such terms or conditions in a Customer Service Order shall be
      effective unless explicitly agreed by FluentStream in accordance with this Section.


      (b) If the Services ordered by Customer consist of a system incorporating multiple lines, telephone
      numbers or “seats,” then Customer will be responsible for directing the configuration of the multiline
      or multi-seat Service ordered by Customer. Customer’s obligations shall include, without limitation, (a)
      designating one or more administrators who are authorized to order seats, lines or other modifications
      to the Service, or to reconfigure Equipment used with the Service; (b) determining the number of lines,
      seats and or DID numbers required for Customer’s needs, the assignment and re-assignment of lines, seats
      and/or DID numbers among its End Users, changes in the number, location or other characteristics of
      lines or seats required; (c) designating a location to receive notification when a 911 call is placed
      using the Service, as described in the E911 Policy; and (d) the day-to-day operations of the Service.
      Customer shall provide such information related to the foregoing as is necessary or reasonably requested
      by FluentStream to install the Services in accordance with Customer’s requirements and to provide the
      Services.

    • 6.2

      System Requirements. Use of the Services requires one or more compatible devices,
      Internet access, certain software, and may require obtaining updates or upgrades from time to time.
      Because use of the Service involves hardware, software, and Internet access, your ability to access and
      use the Services may be affected by the performance of any or all of these factors. You acknowledge and
      agree that you are responsible for ensuring that your systems and equipment meet or exceed the system
      requirements, which may be changed from time to time.

    •  
    • 6.3

      Equipment. All Equipment, unless purchased by Customer, shall be the property of
      FluentStream. Unless otherwise agreed, you will lease Equipment from FluentStream in accordance with the
      terms of the Equipment Addendum available in the Legal Center at www.fluentstream.com. Upon Customer
      request, FluentStream may, but shall not be required to, permit Customer to provide its own equipment in
      lieu of obtaining Equipment from FluentStream. If Customer wishes to use any equipment with the Services
      other than Equipment provided by FluentStream, Customer shall so request in writing, and shall provide
      FluentStream with the manufacturer, make and model of all equipment Customer proposes to use, the number
      of units, whether such equipment is new or used, the technical specifications of such equipment, and
      such other information as FluentStream may request. FluentStream may approve or reject any or all such
      equipment in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding any approval by FluentStream, FluentStream shall have
      no responsibility or liability for the installation, configuration, operation, management or maintenance
      of such equipment; any incompatibility of such equipment with any Service; or any service errors,
      service level failures or other Service issues to the extent arising from or related to the use of such
      equipment. If you are a party to an Acquired Contract, you may continue to use equipment used with your
      previous provider’s services during the Transition Period; provided, that any equipment to be obtained
      or installed following the date of FluentStream’s acquisition of your Acquired Contract shall be subject
      to this Section.

      • 6.3.1

        Lease with Buyout Option. FluentStream may, but shall not be required
        to, permit you to purchase leased Equipment from FluentStream upon request. If FluentStream
        agrees to sell you the Equipment, the buyout price shall be based on the approximate fair market
        value determined by FluentStream in its sole discretion and good faith, plus Taxes, shipping,
        handling and delivery fees. Additionally, if you fail to return the Equipment upon termination
        of the applicable Customer Service Order, or return the Equipment but not in the condition
        required by the Equipment Addendum, FluentStream, in its sole discretion and without prejudice
        to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement, at law or in equity, may deem
        Customer to have purchased such Equipment, in which event you shall be charged for, and agree to
        pay upon demand, the purchase of such equipment, in an amount determined by FluentStream, in its
        discretion, to cover all of FluentStream’s costs in replacing such Equipment, including all
        Taxes, shipping, handling and delivery fees. Upon payment in full, title to Equipment shall pass
        to Customer, as-is, where-is, without recourse, representation, or warranty of any kind, express
        or implied. For the avoidance of doubt, FluentStream is not responsible for purchased Equipment,
        and FluentStream shall not be responsible for any damage or defects to purchased Equipment.

      • 6.3.2

        Third Party Manufacturers. Customer acknowledges and agrees that all
        Equipment provided by FluentStream is manufactured by third parties. FluentStream will use
        commercially reasonable efforts to pass through any manufacturer’s warranties on such Equipment
        but shall otherwise have no obligation or liability with respect to such Equipment. FluentStream
        shall have no obligation or liability with respect to Customer-provided equipment or to
        Equipment in use prior to the date of this Agreement.

      • 6.3.3

        Shipping Costs. Standard Equipment shipping shall be via FedEx Ground,
        or UPS, or USPS Priority Mail. Customer is responsible for all applicable shipping, handling and

        international calling setup. Rates for international calls are subject to change, and new rates

        verified and valid and allow businesses to send a large volume of messages. In the event that
        Customer does not obtain assistance from FluentStream in registering campaigns, Customer
        represents and warrants that it has, or prior to initiating the campaign will have, all
        appropriate registrations in place, and will provide such evidence of the same as FluentStream
        may request. Customer further represents, warrants and covenants that it has or will obtain all

      Changes in Service. You may change the level of Service or features included on
      your account. You should submit a change order request in order to change your Services.

      • 6.5.1

        FluentStream processes new requests to upgrade Service or add additional
        features within five business days. If you add Services or features to your account without an
        accompanied change order request, FluentStream reserves the right to increase charges and fees
        to reflect such change. FluentStream reserves the right to audit the Services and features that
        are covered by your plan and that are actually used under your account, and will add charges and
        fees for Services and features accordingly. Services will be pro-rated for the first month of
        the Term, as determined pursuant to Section 8.1. If your Service Order provided for a fixed
        term, any increase in level of Service or features will be become effective upon FluentStream’s
        acceptance of your request or discovery of your increased use of Services or features, as the
        case may by, and will continue for a period coterminous with the Service Order Term.

      • 6.5.2

        If the Term of your Service is month-to-month, you may decrease the features or
        other aspects of your Services; provided, that you may forfeit and be required to repay any
        initial discounts and promotions based on the level of Service you initially chose. If your
        Service Order provided for a fixed term, or if you are within the term of an Acquired Contract,
        no decrease to the monthly recurring charges specified in your Service Order or Acquired
        Contract, as the case may be, is allowed without FluentStream’s prior written consent, which
        consent may be conditioned upon the payment of your agreed-upon total Subscription Service Fees
        for the remainder of the contract term and other termination fees, if applicable. FluentStream
        will make necessary changes to your account rates in the next billing cycle. You may be required
        to execute an updated Customer Service Order for changes made to existing Services.

        International Telephone Numbers. In some cases, FluentStream may be able
        to obtain local inbound calling numbers from other countries. A minimum usage requirement on a
        minutes-per-number may be required. All international numbers incur a one-time setup fee, a
        monthly recurring fee, and a monthly rate per minute fee. FluentStream reserves the right to
        deactivate the allocated phone numbers upon the termination of Service and does not guarantee
        the right to port out numbers to another service provider. Please contact a FluentStream
        representative for details regarding number availability and pricing. All pricing is subject to
        change. Please note that E911 services are not available for international telephone numbers.

        subject to regulatory requirements of foreign jurisdictions, including with respect to rates,
        and such requirements may change without notice. FluentStream shall not be liable for any
        changes to the availability, terms or rates of or for international numbers.

      •  
      • 6.6.3

        Number Porting. FluentStream will use commercially reasonable efforts to
        facilitate number transfers or port requests submitted by Customer, in accordance with
        applicable law. Customer shall comply with the necessary and specific procedures for porting
        between service providers described herein, as the same may be modified from time to time due to
        applicable law or the requirements of third-party carriers. You acknowledge and accept that
        number porting depends on the co-operation of third parties outside of FluentStream’s control,
        including but not limited to FluentStream’s suppliers. Accordingly, you agree that FluentStream
        will not be liable for the failure or delay of any third party to cooperate in the porting of
        any telephone number, or for the allegedly unauthorized porting of any telephone number by a
        third party.

        • 6.6.3.1

          Number Portability. FluentStream may require a completed and
          signed Letter of Authorization (“LOA”) for any local or toll-free numbers the Customer
          wishes to port. FluentStream also requires a recent, applicable copy of the Customer’s
          phone bill which contains the Customer’s Billing Telephone Number (“BTN”) as well as a
          record of any other numbers that need to be ported. In some cases, a telephone number is
          not portable, in which case FluentStream will provide the Customer with a unique
          telephone number. FluentStream will comply with applicable state and federal laws
          regarding number portability.

        • 6.6.3.2

          Number Port-In Procedures. In order to request the porting of
          a telephone or facsimile number into an account, an administrator for your account must
          complete all steps and provide all information requested as part of the number port-in
          request process (which may include without limitation providing an executed Letter of
          Agency) or as otherwise requested by FluentStream.

        • 6.6.3.3

          Number Port-Out Process. In order to request the porting out
          to another services provider of a telephone or facsimile number currently assigned to an
          account, you must follow the instructions specified by that services provider and must
          provide all information and cooperation requested by the relevant other services
          providers, FluentStream, or any other relevant third party. You acknowledge and agree
          that: (i) the porting of telephone or facsimile numbers into or out of an account
          requires your provision of specific and detailed information to FluentStream and/or
          third parties (including without limitation other services providers) and completion of
          certain steps and procedures, as well as third parties’ completion of certain steps; and
          (ii) numbers may not be ported into or out of an account unless and until you are able
          to provide certain specific information that matches other information on record with
          FluentStream or other services providers. For these and other reasons, the completion of
          any number port request and the timing of and date by which any such request may be
          completed depend on a number of factors outside of FluentStream’s control, including
          without limitation the acts and omissions of both you and third parties, including
          without limitation other services providers. Customer acknowledges FluentStream may use
          additional security measures to protect Customer’s phone numbers, and Customer agrees to
          cooperate with FluentStream’s number porting processes and procedures.

        • 6.6.3.4

          Unauthorized Port Outs. You acknowledge and agree that
          telephone or facsimile numbers may be ported out from your Services or an account due to
          acts or omissions of third parties, and it may be difficult or impossible for
          FluentStream to: (i) prevent such port-outs: (ii) retrieve numbers ported-out of an
          account; or (iii) port such numbers back into an account. To the fullest extent
          permitted by applicable law, FluentStream disclaims all responsibility or liability due
          to such port-outs.

        • 6.6.3.5

          Accurate Porting Information. You agree, represent and warrant
          that all information or representations provided in connection with any request to port
          in or port out numbers (including without limitation any information or representations
          in any Letter of Agency) by you, any user or End User, or any party acting on behalf of,
          at the direction or request of, or with the permission or knowledge of any of the
          foregoing shall be true, accurate, and up-to-date.

        • 6.6.3.6

          Customer Compliance with Porting Laws. You acknowledge and
          agree that the porting of numbers is subject to telecommunications and other Laws and
          may be subject to third party terms and conditions. You agree, represent, and warrant
          that neither You; nor any user or End User; nor any party acting on behalf of, at the
          direction or request of, or with the permission or knowledge of any of the foregoing
          will at any time: (i) violate any applicable Law or engage in any fraudulent or
          deceptive conduct in its porting-related requests or activities; (ii) engage in or
          facilitate “slamming” or the porting out of any telephone or facsimile number or change
          or attempt to change any party’s telephony service provider without first obtaining the
          proper, requisite consents and authorizations; or (iii) violate contractual or other
          obligations to service providers or other third parties.

        • 6.6.3.7

          Release of Numbers. You acknowledge that in the event of
          account termination or cancellation, all telephone numbers associated with your account,
          which have not previously been ported to another provider, may be released. Similarly,
          the cancellation of individual lines may result in the release of the related numbers if
          those numbers have not previously been ported to another provider. You acknowledge that
          you are solely responsible for working with a third-party provider to port out any
          numbers prior to termination or cancellation of your account or Services, or any
          individual line.

    Term.
    If you have an Acquired Contract, your term of service under the Acquired Contract at
    the time of acquisition will continue as provided in the fourth introductory paragraph above. Thereafter, unless
    otherwise agreed by FluentStream in writing, the Term of your Agreement will continue in accordance with
    subsection 8.2.

    1.  
    2. 8.1

      The “Term” of this Agreement begins on the earlier date of: (a) when your signed
      Customer Service Order is submitted, unless FluentStream rejects such Customer Service Order in
      accordance with Section 6.1 of this Agreement; (b) when your first payment is processed, or (c) when you
      start(ed) using the Services. The Term shall continue for the greater of: (i) the period of time set
      forth in your Customer Service Order; (ii) for the period of time otherwise mutually agreed upon in
      writing by you and FluentStream; (iii) if not otherwise specified or agreed to, month-to-month,
      indefinitely, until terminated; or (iv) for as long as you access and use the Services, notwithstanding
      an otherwise specified expiration or termination date.

    3. 8.2

      If a Customer Service Order, or any related agreement including an Acquired Contract or
      FluentStream partner agreement, has a stated Term other than month-to-month, the Term of Customer’s
      Service shall automatically renew for a period equal to the initial term at the end of each term, unless
      either party provides written notice of cancellation to the other no less than 30 days prior to the end
      of the then-current Term. Agreements with a month-to-month Term may be canceled at any time by either
      party, upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the other.

    Cancellation of Services; Termination. If you are a party to an Acquired Contract, the
    termination provisions of your Acquired Contract will control during the Transition Period, except that
    violations of Section 7 above will be governed by this Section, and reductions in Services will be governed by
    Section 9.2.

      Termination by FluentStream. FluentStream may terminate or suspend this
      Agreement immediately if FluentStream determines, in its sole discretion, that you have violated any
      provision of Section 7, or may terminate this Agreement upon ten (10) days' prior written notice if you
      violate any other terms of this Agreement and fail to cure the violation within such ten (10) days.
      FluentStream may also terminate this Agreement for any other reason whatsoever by providing you with 30
      days’ prior written notice of such termination. Subscription Service Fees and Usage Fees will continue
      to accrue through the termination date.

    • 9.2

      Termination by Customer. You may terminate this Agreement or terminate or reduce
      any Services: (a) pursuant to the terms specified in this Agreement or as otherwise mutually agreed to
      in writing by the parties hereto; or (b) if neither the Customer Service Order nor any other written
      instrument executed by FluentStream specifies a procedure for termination, by providing FluentStream 30
      days’ prior written notice. Customer must provide notice by submitting a cancellation form located at
      https://www.fluentstream.com/cancellation-of-service/. If Customer wishes to cancel a previously
      submitted termination notice, the 30-day notice period must be adhered to with any subsequent
      termination notices. In the event that Customer terminates this Agreement or cancels a Service that is
      subject to a defined Term other than month-to-month, or reduces the volume of any such Service
      (including without limitation by reducing the number of activated devices or telephone numbers) agreed
      in a Customer Service Order or Acquired Contract, then Customer will be subject to termination fees as
      outlined in the Customer Service Order or Acquired Contract, which shall not be less than the monthly
      recurring charges (or the difference in monthly recurring charges, in the event of a Service reduction)
      for all affected Services and related Equipment prior to such termination or reduction, multiplied by
      the number of months remaining in the then-current Term. Customer shall also be responsible for
      returning any Equipment, including Equipment no longer used due to a reduction in Services, in
      accordance with the Equipment Addendum.

    • 9.3

      No Refund. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, or any reduction
      of Services pursuant to Section 9.2, Customer shall not be entitled to a refund of any prepaid or other
      fees. Customer is responsible for all charges through the effective termination date, including the
      notice period and, without limitation, any unbilled charges such as usage.

    • 9.4

      Survival. Upon termination of this Agreement, any provision which, by its nature
      or express terms should survive, shall survive such termination or expiration, including, but not
      limited to, (i) your representations and warranties, indemnification obligations, and use restrictions;
      and (ii) FluentStream’s limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, indemnification obligations,
      and intellectual property rights.

      Customer Obligations Upon Termination. Customer agrees that upon Termination of
      this Agreement:

    • 9.5.1

      You shall be responsible for payment in full for Services through the end of
      the month of the effective date of termination. You shall pay FluentStream any amounts owed for
      Services prior to termination within three (3) business days of FluentStream’s final invoice,
      and you agree that FluentStream may charge your payment method on file at the end of such
      three-day period. Subscription Service Fees will not be prorated.

    • 9.5.2

      If applicable, you must immediately notify FluentStream of all Customer
      Premises and other premises where FluentStream Equipment and materials are stored. You shall
      permit FluentStream, its employees, agents, contractors, or representatives to access your
      Customer Premises and other premises during regular business hours in order to remove all
      Equipment and other materials furnished by FluentStream, or upon FluentStream’s request and in
      its discretion, you agree to return all Equipment and materials furnished by FluentStream to a
      location specified by FluentStream using a reliable shipping method. You shall be responsible
      for all FluentStream Equipment and materials that are not received by FluentStream within a
      reasonable period of time post-termination, and FluentStream may deem you to have purchased the
      same and charge you in accordance with the Equipment Addendum and this Agreement.

    • 9.5.3

      You are solely responsible for notifying FluentStream of any and all requests
      to port out billable telephone numbers (also referred as “DIDs”) to a different service
      provider, whether port out options are known or unknown by you. You remain solely responsible
      for all billable charges until such time that port outs have been completed. You shall retain
      ownership of any purchased local or toll-free numbers and any existing numbers that were
      originally ported over to FluentStream from a different service provider.

    Service Level Agreement.
    If you are a party to an Acquired Contract, the terms described in
    this Section will replace your prior service terms after the Transition Period:

    •  
    • 10.1

      Service Guarantee. FluentStream guarantees that our Services will be available
      for its primary intended use 99.99% of the time in any given monthly billing period, excluding certain
      Exceptions as defined below. This guarantee shall include the ability to make and receive calls only and
      excludes the functioning of any other ancillary features offered by FluentStream. If FluentStream fails
      to meet this service level guarantee, Customer shall be eligible for a credit. Credits will be
      calculated as a percentage of the fees incurred over the billing period affected by the service outage
      and will be applied at the end of the billing cycle. Credits shall be calculated at three percent (3%)
      of the monthly Subscription Service Fee for the affected Service each hour of downtime, up to 100% of
      the total fees for the affected Service billed in the affected billing period. To obtain a credit,
      Customer must request a credit in writing from FluentStream within fifteen (15) days of the service
      outage. Credits shall be applied against future fees payable by Customer for the Service (the foregoing
      provisions of this Section 10.1, collectively, the “Service Guarantee”). This Service Guarantee is your
      sole and exclusive remedy for downtime in Services. For the purposes of the Service Guarantee, the
      following “Exceptions” are not eligible for service credits: (a) any act or omission by Customer or any
      End User; (b) issues with Customer’s or its End User’s Internet connectivity; (c) a Force Majeure event;
      (d) failure, interruption, outage, or other problem with any software, hardware, system, network,
      facility, server, or similar equipment and programming not supplied by FluentStream; (e) Scheduled
      Maintenance as outlined in Section 10.2; (f) issues, bugs, or delays caused by third-party applications,
      services, or other components; (g) the disabling, suspension, or termination of the Services by
      FluentStream in response to Customer’s failure to comply with this Agreement; and (h) third-party
      interference with or attacks upon the Services or the networks used to provide them.

    • 10.2

      Maintenance and Other Planned Service Outages. FluentStream will periodically
      perform routine system maintenance and/or system updates to ensure we are running the most reliable and
      secure software possible (“Scheduled Maintenance”). During periods of Scheduled Maintenance, it will be
      necessary to take the Service offline. FluentStream will return services as quickly as possible and
      typical Scheduled Maintenance is completed within 15 minutes. FluentStream will endeavor to perform
      Scheduled Maintenance after normal business hours (generally, 10PM EST – 5AM EST). FluentStream will use
      commercially reasonable efforts to notify Customer one or two days in advance of performing Scheduled
      Maintenance, so you can prepare for the planned service outage.

    • 10.3

      Service Level and Support Limitation of Liability. FluentStream shall not be
      liable or held responsible for any disruption in Service due to (i) Internet connectivity issues with
      Customer’s Internet Service Provider (ISP); (ii) disruption in Service related to Customer’s error,
      misuse, or failure to comply with this Agreement; (iii) outage due to a previous service provider’s
      failure to properly port over number(s) to FluentStream; (iv) power outage; or (v) a Force Majeure
      event. FluentStream may provide implementation, configuration, or similar Services support, either
      remotely or on-premise. Use of such Services by Customer is at Customer’s sole option and risk.
      FluentStream shall not be liable to Customer for any damages, loss, or liability arising out of or in
      connection with FluentStream’s implementation; configuration; firewall, router, or device configuration
      and setup; or similar implementation and Services support.

  • 11.Personal Information, Privacy Statement and Data.

    •  
    • 11.1

      Your personal information is governed by the FluentStream Privacy Policy available
      from time to time in the Legal Center at www.fluentstream.com. The FluentStream Privacy Policy is hereby
      incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement by this reference.

    • 11.2 Customer Proprietary Network Information.

      • 11.2.1

        In the normal course of providing services to its users and customers,
        FluentStream collects and maintains certain customer proprietary network information (“CPNI”)
        typical to the industry. CPNI includes the types of telecommunications and interconnected VoIP
        services Customer currently purchases or subscribes to, how Customer uses those services (for
        example, Customer’s calling records), and billing information related to those services.
        Customer’s FluentStream telephone number(s), name, and address do not constitute CPNI.

      • 11.2.2

        FluentStream does not sell, trade, or otherwise share Customer’s CPNI with
        anyone outside of FluentStream and those parties authorized to represent FluentStream to offer
        the Services or to perform functions on FluentStream’s behalf related to the Services, except as
        the law may require or Customer may authorize. Federal law generally permits FluentStream to use
        CPNI in its provision of the Services Customer purchases or subscribes to, including billing and
        collections for those Services. FluentStream may also use or disclose Customer CPNI for legal or
        regulatory reasons such as to respond to a court order, to investigate fraud, to protect
        FluentStream’s rights or property, to protect against the unlawful use of FluentStream’s
        services, or to protect other users. Customer acknowledges and agrees to such uses for itself
        and its End Users. In the event that FluentStream consents to the Customer’s resale of any
        Services, Customer shall ensure that it informs its customers or subscribers of FluentStream’s
        use and disclosure of CPNI in accordance with this Section.

      • 11.2.3

        Customer may elect to prohibit FluentStream’s use of Customer’s CPNI to
        market services other than services of the same type that Customer already purchases from
        FluentStream by providing FluentStream with Customer’s “opt-out” notice within thirty (30)
        calendar days of Customer’s Service commencement via marketing@fluentstream.com. If Customer
        fails to do so within such timeframe, Customer will be deemed to have given FluentStream consent
        to use Customer’s CPNI to market services other than services of the same type that Customer
        already purchases from FluentStream. Customer acknowledges and agrees that such communications
        may be directed to one or more Customer End Users, and Customer agrees that it will provide its
        End Users with notice that they may receive such marketing communications and instructions as to
        how to opt out. Restricting FluentStream’s use of Customer CPNI will not affect FluentStream’s
        provision of any Service, nor will it necessarily eliminate all types of FluentStream marketing.
        In the event that FluentStream consents (in its sole and absolute discretion) to Customer’s
        resale of the Services, Customer shall provide notice to its customers or subscribers that
        Customer will disclose or otherwise permit FluentStream to access such customers’ or
        subscribers’ CPNI for the provision of the purpose of marketing communications-related services;
        provide a method for such customers or subscribers to opt out; and provide FluentStream with
        current information concerning the “opt out” status of such customers or subscribers.

    • 11.3

      Other Disclosures of Information. Customer agrees that information concerning
      it, its End Users, locations, assigned telephone numbers and other identifying information, which may or
      may not constitute CPNI, may be disclosed to public safety answering points or other emergency call
      takers in connection with the completion of 911 calls, or to law enforcement or other governmental
      authorities as required by applicable law, regulation, court or administrative order, subpoena, warrant
      or other legal process. FluentStream shall have no liability to Customer, any End User or any other
      party using the Services under Customer’s Account for any such disclosure.

    • 11.4Data.

      • 11.4.1

        You acknowledge and agree that: (i) FluentStream and its affiliates shall have
        no obligation to store, retain, back-up, or ensure the availability of any stored Customer

        that such information is downloaded, saved, and/or backed-up outside of your Account, as
        necessary or appropriate for your and/or the End Users’ purposes; (iii) you shall not rely on
        your Services or account as a repository for or means by which to retain, store, or back-up
        account data or any other data, information, or materials; (iv) FluentStream may delete or purge
        any and all copies and versions of any stored Customer personal or account data or other data at
        any time, without notice, including without limitation after you delete any such information
        from an account or after termination of this Agreement or closure of an account; and (v)
        FluentStream may, in its sole discretion and option and without notice, implement reasonable
        limits as to the size or duration of storage of account data, including, but not limited to,
        call recordings, voicemail and call or communication detail records.

        performance of any of the following tasks or work by FluentStream, and in no event shall

        verification, or production of any account data, personal information, or any other records,

        stored through an account; (ii) the provision of legal or other advice; or (iii) the provision
        of assistance, cooperation, or information beyond that which is directly and specifically
        related to FluentStream’s fulfillment of its obligations under this Agreement or pursuant to
        applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, except as provided in this Agreement or required
        by Law, FluentStream is not obligated to: (i) determine, prove, or disprove any fact or claim;
        (ii) pursue or defend against any claim, allegation, action, lawsuit, demand, or proceeding;
        (iii) substantiate any party’s compliance with any Law or legal process; (iv) respond to or
        comply with any request or demand; (v) identify any party; or (vi) conduct any surveillance.

      • 11.4.2

        You acknowledge and agree that: (i) any stored communications, stored
        personal information or account data, or other information or materials that you export will not
        be under FluentStream’s control and will not be subject to or protected by FluentStream’s
        security controls; (ii) linking or integrating your Services or accounts(s) to or with any
        external service, environment, account or repository constitutes such exportation and
        FluentStream shall have no responsibility for, and makes no representation or warranty
        regarding, the security, privacy, or functionality of any such linked or integrated external
        service, environment, account or repository. You and your End Users, as applicable, shall comply
        with all applicable Law relating to the use, disclosure, access, or export of data from your
        account(s).

    • 11.5

      You hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless FluentStream from and against any and
      all liability relating to or arising from its acts or omissions in accordance with this Section 11 to
      the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

  • 15.Additional Provisions.

    •  
    • 15.1

      Governing Law. This Agreement, all matters related to the Services, and any
      dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes
      or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
      Colorado without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State
      of Colorado or any other jurisdiction). Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related
      to, this Agreement or the Services shall be subject to arbitration in accordance with Section 15.2
      hereof. Any proceeding which may be instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction, including
      proceedings pursuant to Section 15.3 or suits to enforce the arbitrator’s award, shall be instituted
      exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Colorado, in each
      case located in the City of Denver and County of Denver, although FluentStream retains the right to
      bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of this Agreement in your country of
      residence or any other relevant country. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of
      jurisdiction over you by the federal and state courts in and for Denver, Colorado, and to venue in such
      courts.

    • 15.2

      Arbitration. Subject to Section 15.3, all disputes arising out of or relating to
      this Agreement, including without limitation those regarding the formation, interpretation, breach or
      termination hereof, or any issue regarding whether a dispute is subject to arbitration hereunder, that
      cannot be settled by good faith negotiation between the parties within a reasonable period of time, will
      be conclusively determined by a final and binding arbitration proceeding to take place in Denver,
      Colorado. Such proceeding will be conducted in English and administered by JAMS pursuant to the JAMS
      Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect, or in the event one of the parties is
      located outside of the United States, pursuant to the JAMS International Arbitration Rules then in
      effect, before a panel of one arbitrator chosen in accordance with such rules. The arbitrator will not
      award punitive or exemplary damages, and will not have the authority to limit, expand or otherwise
      modify the terms of the Agreement. The ruling by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having
      jurisdiction over the parties or any of their assets. The parties will evenly split the cost of the
      arbitrator’s fees, but each party will bear their own attorneys' fees and other costs associated with
      the arbitration except as provided in Section 15.4 hereof. The parties agree that this arbitration
      provision may be enforced by injunction or other equitable order, and no bond or security of any kind
      will be required with respect to any such injunction or order. The parties, their representatives, other
      participants and the arbitrator will hold the existence, content and result of arbitration in
      confidence.

    • 15.3

      Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this Section will be construed to preclude either
      party from seeking provisional remedies, including but not limited to temporary restraining orders and
      preliminary injunctions, from any court of competent jurisdiction in order to protect its rights pending
      arbitration.

    • 15.4

      Costs of Enforcement. In the event that either party hereto brings an action
      with respect to any dispute arising hereunder, any alleged breach of the terms hereof, or the
      enforcement of the provisions and restrictions thereof, the substantially prevailing party in such
      action shall be awarded all reasonable costs and expenses incurred thereby, including reasonable
      attorneys’ and other legal fees and costs, whether prior to the formal initiation of such action, prior
      to trial, at trial, or on appeal and for post-judgment proceedings.

    • 15.5

      Limitation on Time to File Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY
      CLAIM OR DISPUTE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION HEREUNDER, THAT YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
      AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM OR
      DISPUTE ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

    • 15.6

      Notices. All notices and other communications pursuant to this Agreement shall
      be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent by facsimile or email
      transmission, sent by nationally-recognized overnight courier or mailed by registered or certified mail
      (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to the FluentStream’s address set forth below, to Customer
      at Customer’s address as set forth in the Customer Service Order, or to such other address as a party to

      the case of personal delivery, on the date of such delivery, (b) in the case of facsimile or email
      transmission, on the date sent if either (i) confirmation of receipt is received or (ii) such notice is
      promptly mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), (c) in the case of a
      nationally-recognized overnight courier in circumstances under which such courier guarantees next
      business day delivery, on the next business day after the date sent, and (d) in the case of mailing, on

HIPAA Business Associate Addendum

This HIPAA Business Association Addendum (this “HIPAA Addendum”) is an addendum to the Terms of Service
(and incorporated therein by reference). This HIPAA Addendum defines the rights and responsibilities of each of
us with respect to Protected Health Information as defined in the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including the HITECH Act and Omnibus
Rule, as each may be amended from time to time (collectively, “HIPAA”). This HIPAA Addendum shall be
applicable only in the event and to the extent FluentStream meets, with respect to you, the definition of a
Business Associate set forth at 45 C.F.R. §160.103, or applicable successor provisions. This HIPAA Addendum
shall be subject to the Terms of Service, and in the event of a conflict between the Terms of Service and this
HIPAA Addendum, the Terms of Service shall control except to the extent necessary to comply with HIPAA.

  •  
  • 1.
    Defined Terms of Service.

    For the purposes of this HIPAA Addendum, capitalized terms shall have the following meanings:

    •  

      “Agreement” shall have the same meaning as given in the Terms of Service.

       

      “Business Associate” shall mean the FluentStream entity from which you purchase Services.

      “Privacy Rule” shall mean the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health
      Information at 45 CFR part 160 and part 164, subparts A and E.

       

      “Protected Health Information” or “PHI” shall have the same meaning as the term “protected
      health information” in 45 CFR § 164.501, limited to the information received by Business Associate from
      or on behalf of Customer.

       

      “Required By Law” shall have the same meaning as the term “required by law” in 45 CFR § 164.501.

       

      “Security Rule” shall mean the Security Standards for the Protection of Electronic Protected
      Health Information, located at 45 CFR Part 160 and Subparts A and C of Part 164.

  •  
  • 2.
    Obligations and Activities of Business Associate.

    •  

    • (a)

      Business Associate shall not use or disclose Protected Health Information other than as
      permitted or required by this HIPAA Addendum or as permitted or Required by Law.

    • (b)

      Business Associate agrees to provide those physical, technical, and administrative
      safeguards described in the Terms of Service and the other parts of the Agreement including those
      safeguards and Services selected by you. If Business Associate agrees as part of this HIPAA Addendum to
      carry out an obligation of yours under the Privacy Rule, then Business Associate will comply with the
      requirements of the Privacy Rule applicable to such obligation.

    • (c)

      Business Associate agrees to mitigate, to the extent reasonably practicable, any harmful
      effect that is known to Business Associate of a use or disclosure of Protected Health Information by
      Business Associate or its agents or subcontractors in violation of the requirements of this HIPAA
      Addendum.

    •  
    • (d)

      Within five Business Days of becoming aware, Business Associate agrees to report to you
      (i) Security Incidents (as defined in 45 C.F.R. §164.304 and as further described below), (ii) the
      Breach of unsecured PHI (as defined in §13402(h) of the HITECH Act), or (iii) an access, acquisition,
      use or disclosure of PHI in violation of this HIPAA Addendum.

    • (1)

      Both parties hereto acknowledge that there are likely to be a significant number
      of meaningless or unsuccessful attempts to access Customer’s Hosted System or Services, which
      make a real-time reporting requirement impractical for both parties hereto. The parties hereto
      acknowledge that Business Associate’s ability to report on system activity, including Security
      Incidents, is limited by, and to, the Services which Customer has purchased.

    • (2)

      Certain FluentStream Services can provide detailed reporting of potential
      Security Incidents (including those listed above), and Customer is responsible for purchasing,
      implementing, and monitoring such Services for potential Security Incidents as appropriate based
      on Customer’s use of the Services.

    • (3)

      Other than as included with and permitted by those Services Customer purchases,
      Business Associate undertakes no obligation to report unsuccessful security incidents or to
      monitor Customer’s Services. Business Associate undertakes no obligation to report network
      security related incidents which occur on the FluentStream managed network but do not directly
      involve Customer’s Hosted System. Where Customer has purchased Services or devices which include
      reporting on network and system security events, the parties hereto agree that the following are
      illustrative examples of unsuccessful security incidents which, when they do not result in the
      unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification or destruction of PHI need not be reported by
      Business Associate: pings against network devices, port scans, attempts to log on to a system or
      database with an invalid password or username, malware.

    • (e)

      Business Associate agrees to obtain from any agent, including a subcontractor to whom it
      provides Protected Health Information, reasonable assurances that it will adhere to the same
      restrictions and conditions that apply to Business Associate under this HIPAA Addendum with respect to
      such information.

    • (f)

      All Protected Health Information maintained by Business Associate for you will be
      available to you in a time and manner that reasonably allows you to comply with the requirements under
      45 CFR § 164.524. Business Associate shall not be obligated to provide any such information directly to
      any Individual or person other than you.

    • (g)

      All Protected Health Information and other information maintained by Business Associate
      for you will be available to you in a time and manner that reasonably allows you to comply with the
      requirements under 45 CFR § 164.526.

    • (h)

      You acknowledge that Business Associate is not required by this HIPAA Addendum to make
      disclosures of Protected Health Information to Individuals or any person other than you, and that
      Business Associate does not, therefore, expect to maintain documentation of such disclosure as described
      in 45 CFR § 164.528. In the event that Business Associate does make such disclosure, it shall document
      the disclosure as would be required for you to respond to a request by an Individual for an accounting
      of disclosures in accordance with 45 CFR §164.504(e)(2)(ii)(G) and §164.528, and shall provide such
      documentation to you promptly on your request. In the event that a request for an accounting is made
      directly to Business Associate, Business Associate shall, within 2 Business Days, forward such request
      to Customer.

  • 3.
    Permitted Uses and Disclosures by Business Associate.
    Except as otherwise limited in this
    HIPAA Addendum or other portion of the Agreement, Business Associate may use or disclose Protected Health
    Information to perform functions, activities, or services for, or on behalf of, you as specified in the
    Agreement, provided that such use or disclosure would not violate the Privacy Rule if done by you.

  •  
  • 4.
    Specific Use and Disclosure Provisions.
    Except as otherwise limited in this HIPAA Addendum
    or other portion of the Agreement, Business Associate may:

    • (a)

      use Protected Health Information for the proper management and administration of
      Business Associate or to carry out its legal responsibilities;

    • (b)

      disclose Protected Health Information for the proper management and administration of
      Business Associate, provided that disclosures are (i) Required By Law, or (ii) Business Associate
      obtains reasonable assurances from the person to whom the information is disclosed that it will remain
      confidential and used or further disclosed only as Required By Law or for the purpose for which it was
      disclosed to the person, and the person will notify Business Associate of any instances of which it is
      aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached; and

    • (c)

      use Protected Health Information to report violations of law to appropriate Federal and
      State authorities, consistent with §164.502(j)(1).

    •  
    • 5.
      Your Obligations.
      You shall notify Business Associate of:

      •  
      • (a)

        any limitations(s) in your notice of privacy practices in accordance with 45 CFR §
        164.520 to the extent that such changes may affect Business Associate’s use or disclosure of Protected
        Health Information;

      • (b)

        any changes in, or revocation of, permission by Individual to use or disclose Protected
        Health Information, to the extent that such changes may affect Business Associate’s use or disclosure of
        Protected Health Information; and

      • (c)

        any restriction to the use or disclosure of Protected Health Information that you have
        agreed to in accordance with 45 CFR § 164.522, to the extent that such restriction may affect Business
        Associate’s use or disclosure of Protected Health Information.

You agree that you will not request Business Associate to use or disclose Protected Health Information in any
manner that would not be permissible under the Privacy Rule if done by you.

 

You agree to comply with those security obligations identified in the Terms of Service, and to implement,
purchase, or maintain appropriate safeguards (including security appliances, services, and practices) as
required for you to comply with the Security and Privacy rules as applicable to you.

 

  •  
  • 6.
    HIPAA Addendum Term and Termination.

    • (a)

      The term of this HIPAA Addendum shall continue for the term of the Agreement to which
      this HIPAA Addendum is incorporated by reference, and following termination of such Agreement until all
      Protected Health Information is destroyed or returned to you or your designee.

    • (b)

      If Business Associate materially breaches the terms of this HIPAA Addendum, then you may
      terminate any related Services Agreement(s).

    • (c)

      Upon termination of the Agreement for any reason Business Associate shall destroy all
      Protected Health Information which remains on your Service or otherwise in Business Associates
      possession. This provision shall apply to Protected Health Information that is in the possession of
      subcontractors or agents of Business Associate as well as Business Associate itself. Business Associate
      shall retain no copies of the Protected Health Information. In the event that Business Associate
      determines that destroying the Protected Health Information is infeasible, Business Associate shall
      promptly provide you notification of the conditions that make destruction infeasible. Business Associate
      shall extend the protections of this Agreement to such Protected Health Information and limit further
      uses and disclosures of such Protected Health Information to those purposes that make the destruction
      infeasible, for so long as Business Associate maintains such Protected Health Information. You shall
      bear the cost of storage of such Protected Health Information for as long as storage by Business
      Associate is required. This Section does not require Business Associate to segregate any Protected
      Health Information from other information maintained by you on Business Associate’s servers and Business
      Associate may comply with this requirement by returning or destroying all of the information maintained
      on its servers by you. Upon your written request FluentStream shall either physically destroy or
      multi-pass wipe any hard drive dedicated to your use, provided that FluentStream may charge you an
      additional fee at its then current rates for such additional services.

    • (d)

      If you request contemporaneously with any termination event or notice, Business
      Associate will allow you to have access to your Service for a reasonable period of time following
      termination as necessary for you to retrieve or delete any Protected Health Information at your then
      current monthly recurring rate; provided, however, that if the security of your servers has been
      compromised, or the Agreement was terminated for your failure to use reasonable security precautions,
      FluentStream may refuse to allow you to have access to your Service but will use reasonable efforts to
      copy your data onto media you provide to FluentStream, and will ship the media to you at your expense.
      FluentStream’s efforts to copy your data onto your media shall be billable at an hourly rate.

  • 7. Miscellaneous.

    • (a)

      Amendment. Each of us agrees to take such action as is reasonably necessary to
      amend this HIPAA Addendum from time to time as is necessary for you to comply with the requirements of
      HIPAA as they may be amended from time to time; provided, however, that if such an amendment would
      materially increase the cost of Business Associate providing service under the Agreement, Business
      Associate shall have the option to terminate the Agreement on 30 days advance notice.

    • (b)

      Survival. Our respective rights and obligations under this HIPAA Addendum shall
      survive the termination of the Agreement.

    • (c)

      Interpretation.Any ambiguity in the Agreement shall be resolved to permit you to
      comply with HIPAA and the Privacy Rule.
