10.3. Renewal of Subscription Term

a. Automatic Renewal. Unless otherwise agreed in the Order Form, after the initial Subscription Term, Customer’s subscription will automatically renew for additional successive twelve-month (12-month) periods until either Party gives the other Party a written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days before the end of the then-current Subscription Term. If such notice of non-renewal is submitted less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Subscription Term, the Subscription Term shall renew as provided in this Section 10.3. and the termination shall become effective only at the expiration of the renewed Subscription Term.

b. Number of Seats at Renewal. The number of Seats to be renewed for a new Subscription Term is based on Customer’s committed Seat count specified in the Order Form or Customer’s actual Seat count at the time of renewal, whichever higher. Customer may decrease the number of Seats to be renewed by contacting their Account Manager or via the admin panel within the Service, as applicable, provided that Customer has given notice of such decrease within the notice period set forth in Section 10.3 (a).

10.4. No cancellation. Customer cannot decrease the number of committed Seats during the Subscription Term or otherwise cancel or terminate an ongoing Subscription Term except as expressly permitted by Section 12.2. (Termination for Cause).


11. FEES AND INVOICING 

11.1. Fees and Currency. Customer will pay Happeo the fees specified in the applicable Order Form (“Fees”) for the duration of the entire Subscription Term specified in the Order Form, regardless of Customer’s actual use of the Service. Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, Fees are payable in USD for Order Forms executed with Happeo US and in EUR for all other Order Forms. All payments are non-cancelable and non-refundable, except where expressly set forth in Section 12.2 (Termination for Cause).

11.2. Standard Billing Interval. Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, Services are invoiced upfront at the beginning of the Subscription Term for the first 12 month period, and thereafter for each subsequent 12-month period in advance.

11.3. Fee Increases. All Fees are subject to an automatic increase of 8% over the then-current Fees for each renewing Subscription Term without prior notice. Happeo will provide a notice for any increases in Fees greater than 8%, at least 90 days prior to the applicable renewing Subscription Term. If Customer decreases its Seat count in accordance with Section 10.3. (b), or wishes to make  other changes in the commercial terms of its subscription (such as the length of the Subscription Term), Happeo reserves the right to increase Customer’s price upon renewal by more than 8%. Happeo shall notify Customer of such higher increase within a reasonable time from Customer’s notification regarding the changes to the commercial terms of its subscription.

11.4. Invoicing Additional Seats. If Customer or any of Customer's Administrators add Seats, either manually or by enabling automatic increase of Seats based on Customer’s actual user count per month, in excess of the number of committed Seats specified in the Order Form (“Additional Seats”), such Additional Seats will be subject to additional Fees as per the Order Form from the beginning of the calendar month during which the Additional Seats were added. The overage Fees for Additional Seats are charged monthly in arrears, but can be pooled and invoiced at a later date at Happeo’s discretion. After Additional Seats have been created, all invoicing of Seats will be based on the increased number of Seats for the remainder of the ongoing Subscription Term.

11.5. Taxes.  All Fees are exclusive of taxes and any other governmental levies. Happeo shall add any VAT or sales tax, if applicable, to the invoice according to applicable regulations. Customer shall be responsible for all taxes and levies associated with Services or use thereof other than taxes based on Customer’s net income. If Customer is under applicable laws or regulations required to withhold and deduct any taxes from the Fees, Customer shall promptly provide Happeo with a tax certificate or other such documentation authorized by appropriate tax authority needed to process any refunds Happeo is entitled to under the applicable laws and regulations. Customer shall compensate all reasonable losses, costs and expenses incurred by Happeo due to Customer failing to comply with this obligation.

11.6. Invoicing Information. Customer shall, by the date of signing the Order Form, provide Happeo with accurate and complete invoicing information, including but not limited to full legal name and address of the paying legal entity, and any purchase order numbers, as applicable, and is responsible for keeping invoicing information up-to-date. A failure by Customer to provide complete and accurate invoicing information to Happeo shall not waive Customer’s obligation to pay the Fees by due date. Happeo’s preferred invoicing method is electronic invoicing via email (as pdf) or e-invoice, where available. If Customer requests paper invoices sent via mail, Happeo has the right to charge a reasonable invoicing surcharge.

11.7. Payment Term.  The payment term is 14 days net, unless Customer is paying by credit card, or otherwise is agreed in the applicable Order Form.

11.8. Payment Method. All payments shall be made via wire transfer to Happeo’s bank account specified by Happeo in the invoice, or upon Customer’s written request, via credit card in which case 3% credit card surcharge will apply. All payments shall refer to the invoice reference number. Other payment methods need to be expressly agreed in the Order Form, and may be subject to surcharges.

11.9. Inaccuracies in Invoicing.

Customer is deemed to have received the invoice no later than the next business day after the invoice was sent to Customer by Happeo. Customer shall remain responsible to pay all undisputed Fees.

12. TERM AND TERMINATION

12.1. Agreement Term. This Agreement will enter into force on the Effective Date and, unless terminated early pursuant to Section 12.2 (Termination for Cause), continue until the expiration of Customer’s last Subscription Term (including any renewal Subscription Terms), or if applicable, until the expiration or termination of Customer’s rights to use the Services.  

12.2.  Termination for Cause. The Agreement can be terminated with immediate effect by a Party, if the other Party:

a. is in material breach of the Agreement (including failure to pay any amount when due) and fails to cure that breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice by the counterparty;

b. ceases its business operations or becomes subject to insolvency proceedings; or

c. is repeatedly in material breach of the Agreement notwithstanding any cure of such breaches.

Upon termination, except in case of Happeo’s material breach, all fees payable to Happeo until the end of the Subscription Term, will become immediately due and payable, and Customer’s right to use the Service ceases.

12.3. Suspension. Happeo may immediately suspend Customer’s and/or any Authorized User’s access to the Service if: (a) Customer or any of its Authorized User breaches Section 3.4. (Prohibited Use) or fails to pay any undisputed amount when due; or (b) Happeo determines in good faith that such suspension is reasonably necessary to avoid possible harm to its own, Customer’s, or any third party’s property, systems, or information. Happeo will notify Customer of the suspension and reason thereof as soon as commercially practicable, and restore service as soon as commercially practicable once the underlying issue is resolved. 

12.4. Rights and Obligations upon Termination,  Surviving Sections.

14. INDEMNIFICATION.

14.1. Customer agrees to defend and indemnify Happeo, its Affiliates and their directors, officers, employees, suppliers and agents against any third-party claims and liabilities (including reasonable legal fees) arising from the Customer’s (or its Authorized Users’) use of the Services in violation of the Agreement or applicable law, or alleging that Customer Content (including without limitation Controller Data) infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property Rights or other rights of such third party.
