INTRODUCING

Professional Services Agreement

Last Updated on May 22, 2024.

This Appspace Professional Services Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between the Customer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (“Customer”), and Appspace, Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the state of Delaware, with offices located at 400 N Tampa Street, Suite 1725, Tampa, FL 33602, USA, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates(“Appspace”). If Customer are agreeing to this Agreement not as an individual but on behalf of Customer’s company, then “Customer” means Customer’s company, and Customer is agreeing to bind, and representing that Customer has full authority to bind, Customer’s company to this Agreement. Customer and Appspace may be referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

This Agreement sets forth the terms under which Appspace will provide Customer with certain professional services described on a statement of work, or an online order flow or a change request form (“SOW” and such services, “Services”). Services may be provided on a subscription basis for a set term (the “Subscription Term”) or may be provided on a one-time or customized basis as designated in the SOW. This Agreement governs Customer’s initial purchase of Services as well as any future purchases made by Customer that reference this Agreement. This Agreement also includes any Appspace policies or documents attached to or referenced in this Agreement, as well as any SOW entered into by the parties hereto.

This Agreement is incorporated into the agreement that Appspace has with its Customers at https://www.appspace.com/legal/user-agreement (as may be modified by Appspace from time to time, the “Appspace End User Agreement”) regarding the use of Appspace’s products (the “Products”).

1. Services; Deliverables; and Customer Materials.
1.1.Services. During the applicable Services Term or as set forth on an accepted SOW, Appspace agrees to use diligent efforts to render the Services. If an accepted SOW specifies a delivery date(s) for provision of the Services, Appspace will use diligent efforts to render the Services by such specified date. SOW will be deemed issued and accepted by Appspace only if signed or otherwise acknowledged as accepted by Appspace.
1.2. Deliverables. Subject to Section 2 (Appspace Products and Ownership; Feedback) below, any materials, deliverables, modifications, derivative works, or developments provided by Appspace to Customer as part of the Services are “Deliverables”. During a valid License Term (as defined in the Appspace End User Agreement), Appspace grants Customer a limited, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the Deliverables internally in connection with Customer’s use of the applicable Products in accordance with the Appspace End User Agreement. The parties will agree upon the Deliverables and will set forth any and all specific or custom requirements and deliverables in the SOW(s). The details of the method and manner for performance of the Services by Appspace shall be under its own control, with the Customer being interested only in the results thereof. Customer agrees to (a) respond promptly to any reasonable requests from Appspace for instructions, information or approvals required by Appspace to provide the Services, (b) cooperate with Appspace in its performance of the Services, and (c) take all steps necessary, including obtaining any required licenses or consents, to prevent Customer-caused delays in Appspace’s provision of the Services.
1.3. Customer Materials. Customer agrees to provide Appspace with reasonable access to Customer materials, personnel, equipment, or facilities (including Customer’s instances of the Products) to the extent such access is reasonably requested by Appspace or necessary for the performance of Services or deliver the Deliverables. To the extent that Customer does not timely provide the foregoing access required for Appspace to perform the Services or deliver the Deliverables, Appspace shall be excused from performance until such access is provided. Customer grants Appspace a limited right to use any Customer materials or information provided to Appspace (the “Customer Materials”) in connection with the Services or delivery of the Deliverables, solely for the purpose of performing the Services or delivery of the Deliverables for Customer. Customer owns and will retain ownership (including all intellectual property rights) in and to the Customer Materials, except that Appspace owns and will retain ownership (including all intellectual property rights) of any underlying Products, service descriptions, documentation, and underlying technology.

2. Appspace Products and Ownership; Feedback

2.1. Appspace Products. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights to and delivery and use of any Appspace Products is governed by the terms of the Appspace End User Agreement and not the terms of this Agreement, and, even if listed in an SOW, no Appspace Products (including any updates, upgrades, patches, and bug fixes) shall be considered a Deliverable under this Agreement. Customer acknowledges that the Services are being purchased separately from any Product licenses or subscriptions and that no such license or subscription is being provided or offered under this Agreement. Fees for the Services are separate from any fees paid for Products, and Customer’s payment obligations under this Agreement are not contingent on the purchase or use of any Product.
2.2. Appspace Ownership. Except for any limited licenses granted herein, Appspace owns and will retain all right, title, interest, and ownership (including all intellectual property rights with exception of Customer Materials incorporated therein) in and to the Deliverables and any modifications, improvements and derivative works thereof (including any such materials to the extent incorporating any Feedback (as defined below)), unless otherwise specifically set forth in an accepted SOW.
2.3. Feedback. From time to time, Customer may choose to submit comments, information, questions, data, ideas, description of processes, or other information to Appspace about, or in connection with, and in the course of using the Products, Deliverables, or receiving the Services, (collectively “Feedback”), Appspace will have a royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, irrevocable, and perpetual, license to freely use any Feedback in any manner without any obligation payment or restriction.
3. Payment and Acceptance

3.1. Payment. Customer will pay Appspace in accordance with terms of each SOW. Although most of the Services may be performed remotely or virtually, Customer agrees to reimburse Appspace for pre-approved travel, lodging and meal expenses incurred in the course of performing the Services at any location other than Appspace’s site, unless otherwise specified on the SOW (including any data sheet incorporated by reference into the SOW). Other than as expressly set forth in the applicable SOW or in Section 7.2 (Indemnification; By Appspace), all amounts are non-refundable, non-cancelable and non-creditable. If Customer purchases any Services through a SOW with a Reseller, Customer owes payment to the Reseller as agreed between Customer and the Reseller, but Customer acknowledges that Appspace may terminate any SOW if Appspace does not receive corresponding payment from the Reseller, with at least five (5) business day’s prior notice to Customer. In the even the Reseller fails to pay Appspace, Customer agrees to use best efforts to have Appspace paid either by Reseller or Customer.

Upon termination of this Agreement, all payments for Services or support and maintenance services already provided shall be accelerated and become immediately due and payable. In addition to any other remedies that Appspace may have at law or equity, any late payments will be subject to a service charge equal to 1.5% per month of the amount due or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less. Customer also agrees to reimburse Appspace for all reasonable costs incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees. In addition to any other rights or remedies that Appspace may have at law or in equity, you acknowledge that if payment is not made within thirty (30) days of the date of the applicable SOW, whether owed directly to Appspace or an authorized Appspace reseller, then, notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Agreement (including the language in Section 9.9 (Dispute Resolution), or any other agreement which you may have with Appspace, Appspace will have the right to terminate this Agreement, disable all Products, and/or cease providing the Services with no liability to you, including any liability for loss of content or for lack of backup.

3.2. Taxes. Customer will be responsible for all related bank charges, taxes, withholdings, duties and levies in connection with the Services (excluding taxes based on the net income of Appspace).
3.3. Acceptance. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable SOW, each Deliverable shall be deemed accepted upon the earliest to occur of: (a) receipt by the Appspace from Customer of written notice that the Deliverable has been accepted by Customer following its testing thereof, or (b) the date which is ten (10) days after delivery of such Deliverable to Customer (“Accept(ance)”). A Deliverable may not be rejected unless it contains a material defect which would prevent such Deliverable from functioning substantially in accordance with the applicable specifications as set forth in the applicable SOW. If Customer, reasonably and in good faith, does not Accept the Deliverables, then Customer must within ten (10) days after delivery provide to Appspace written comments sufficient to identify the Customer’s objections and the applicable material nonconformities in the Deliverable. If Appspace reasonably and in good faith determines there is no material nonconformity with the Deliverable, the parties shall escalate such disagreement in accordance with Section 9.9 (Dispute Resolution). If Appspace agrees that a materially nonconformity exists within the Deliverable, Appspace shall have a commercially reasonable period of time, not less than ten (10) days, to resolve such nonconformities and deliver the Deliverables to Customer for additional Acceptance testing. Customer shall have ten (10) days upon delivery of the updated Deliverable to confirm resolution of the specified material nonconformities. Failure by Customer to confirm resolution of such material nonconformities within such ten (10) day period specified herein shall be deemed Acceptance of the Deliverable. This process shall continue until the Deliverable is Accepted.
4. Term and Termination.
4.1. Agreement Term. This Agreement takes effect on the Effective Date (as defined herein) and for as long as Customer has a valid SOW or completion of all projects in accordance with the outstanding SOW (the “Term”). The “Effective Date” of this Agreement is the date that is the earlier of (a) Customer’s initial receipt of Services or (b) the SOW Effective Date defined in the first SOW referencing this Agreement.
