****************
 
  1. SERVICES, WORK ORDERS.
    1. Services. Contractor will provide services to Qualtrics in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (“Services”) as the parties may from time to time agree and specify in work orders (“Work Orders”) signed by Qualtrics. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Work Order, Contractor will provide all equipment, software and supplies required to perform the Services. Services under a particular Work Order are called a “Project.” Qualtrics makes no promises or representations whatsoever as to the amount of business Contractor can expect at any time under this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in a Work Order, any hosted Services shall be Available at least 99.9% of the time, calculated on a monthly calendar basis. “Available” means the Services are available and operable for access and use by Qualtrics and its users over the internet.
    2. Work Orders. This Agreement governs each Work Order, except that any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and a Work Order will be resolved in favor of the Work Order if the Work Order explicitly states that it is intended to modify the conflicting terms of this Agreement. This Agreement does not obligate Qualtrics to engage Contractor to perform any Services, or Contractor to perform any Services, until both parties have signed a Work Order and then only for the Project specified in the Work Order. Both parties must sign a Work Order for it to be effective. If Contractor commences Services for Qualtrics in the absence of a Work Order and Qualtrics accepts such Services, this Agreement will nevertheless apply, unless the parties otherwise mutually agree in writing. Contractor will, at no cost to Qualtrics, promptly and satisfactorily correct any Services or Work Product found to be defective or not in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement and the applicable Work Order.
    3. On-Site Services. If Contractor provides Services on Qualtrics premises, Contractor will (a) abide by all Qualtrics’ rules, policies, and procedures regarding such matters as safety, security, health, environmental and hazardous material management, misconduct, physical aggression, harassment and theft (collectively, “Rules”); and (b) at Qualtrics’ request, remove and promptly replace any Personnel (defined in Section 6 below) performing Services who behave in a manner that is unlawful or inconsistent with any Rule.
    4. Payment/Records. Contractor will submit each invoice against the applicable Purchase Order through the Coupa supplier portal at https://supplier.coupahost.com or Qualtrics’ current accounts payable procedures and system, and each invoice will be in a form reasonably acceptable to Qualtrics and contain sufficient information to allow Qualtrics to determine the accuracy of the amounts billed therein. Subject to the foregoing and Qualtrics’ acceptance of Services, Qualtrics will pay Contractor within 90 days of receipt of invoice, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Work Order. Contractor is entitled to no other compensation or reimbursement for the Services. Contractor will not raise its pricing on a per-unit basis from a given Work Order for any future or renewal Work Orders. Contractor will, in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards, keep copies of all books and records relating to the Services during the term of this Agreement and for three years thereafter. Qualtrics may upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours examine and make copies of all books and records relating to the Services.
    5. Taxes. Contractor may charge and Qualtrics will pay applicable federal, state or local sales or use taxes or value added taxes that Contractor is legally obligated to charge (“Taxes”), provided that such Taxes are stated on the original invoice that Contractor provides to Qualtrics and Contractor’s invoice states such Taxes separately and meets the appropriate tax requirements for a valid tax invoice. Qualtrics may provide Contractor an exemption certificate or equivalent information acceptable to the relevant taxing authority, in which case Contractor will not charge or collect the Taxes covered by such certificate. Contractor will be responsible for all other taxes or fees (including interest and penalties) arising from transactions and the documentation of transactions under this Agreement. Qualtrics may deduct or withhold any taxes that Qualtrics determines it is obligated to withhold from any amounts payable to Contractor under this Agreement, and payment to Contractor as reduced by such deductions or withholdings will constitute full payment and settlement to Contractor of such amounts.
  2. TERM This Agreement begins on the effective date of the applicable Work Order (“Effective Date”) and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement, continues for a period of one year; provided, however, that the terms of this Agreement shall survive and apply to any Work Orders outstanding as of the effective date of termination. Upon expiration of such period, this Agreement will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis until either party gives at least 60 days’ prior written notice of termination. A Work Order will commence on its specified start date and terminate on its specified completion date, provided that Qualtrics may terminate any Work Order or any portion thereof, without cause and/or without the occurrence of a default, with immediate effect, by providing prior written notice to Contractor. Upon any such termination, Qualtrics is only liable to pay for Services performed and for documented out-of-pocket liabilities incurred prior to expiration or termination; provided that Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such liabilities; provided, further that if the fee set forth in the Work Order is a fixed amount, Qualtrics will pay the fee to the extent the Project is complete. In addition, Qualtrics may terminate this Agreement or any applicable Work Order or any portion of the Services not then performed immediately upon written notice for Contractor’s material breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to any breach of Section 7 below. Upon any termination by Qualtrics pursuant to this Section 2, Contractor shall provide a pro rata refund of any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of the Work Order following the effective date of termination and/or the portion of the Services not performed. Contractor may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice if Qualtrics fails to cure a nonpayment of amounts due within 30 days after written notice of such nonpayment to Qualtrics. In connection with the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, Contractor will provide reasonable assistance to Qualtrics in order to enable and facilitate an orderly transition of the Services to Qualtrics or to another vendor.

However, the foregoing does not apply to the extent such Claim results solely from Qualtrics’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. Contractor’s duty to defend is independent of its duty to indemnify. Contractor’s obligations under this section are independent of all of its other obligations under this Agreement.

Contractor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without Qualtrics’ prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. In connection with any action to enforce Contractor’s obligations under this section with respect to any claim arising out of any bodily injury (including death) to any person directly or indirectly employed by Contractor, Contractor waives any immunity, defense or protection under any workers’ compensation, industrial insurance or similar laws and assumes liability for such claim. This paragraph will not be interpreted or construed as a waiver of Contractor’s right to assert any such immunity, defense or protection directly against any of its own employees or such employee’s estate or other representatives.
