8.2 Payment. Licensee or, when applicable, a Partner will pay Netwrix for the Cloud Service and Services in accordance with the applicable Order. Any late payments will accrue an administrative fee of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the outstanding balance per month or the maximum rate permitted by law. In the event Netwrix engages a collection agency to collect any late payment, a collection fee of thirty percent (30%) of the outstanding balance plus any accrued administrative fees will be added.
8.3 Non-Payment. Netwrix may suspend access to the Cloud Service and deny Support Services during any Cloud Service Term if it has not received all applicable fees.

8.6 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement that by their nature are intended to survive termination or expiration of this Agreement shall survive any termination/expiration of the Agreement and remain in effect following such termination/expiration.
8.7 Assignment. Licensee may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement without prior written consent by Netwrix (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and any purported assignment or transfer without Netwrix's written consent shall be null and void.
8.8 Interpretation. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflicts of laws and Licensee irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by it will be brought and determined in the federal courts for the District of Delaware, or if there is no federal jurisdiction, by the state courts of Delaware, and Licensee hereby irrevocably agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts with regard to any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Cloud Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Licensee has a shipping address within the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland or another address within the European Union, this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without reference to the principles of conflicts of law, and the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine any dispute, legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including its subject matter and/or interpretation. The U.N. Convention of Contracts for the Sale of International Goods will not apply. Performance of any obligation required by a Party hereunder may be waived only by a written waiver signed by the other Party, which waiver shall be effective only with respect to the specific obligation described therein. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Netwrix will not be liable for any delay or failure of performance, and no delay or failure of performance will constitute a default or give rise to any liability for damages if such delay or failure is caused by causes beyond Netwrix's control, including, without limitation, acts of God, war, terrorism, and civil disturbance.
8.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any Order and SOW hereunder, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the Parties, whether written or oral, relating to the same subject matter. Any contrary or supplemental terms or conditions on any purchase order or other document issued by Licensee is for administrative convenience only and shall not be binding upon Netwrix, even if signed by Netwrix. Performance will not constitute acceptance by Netwrix of contrary or supplemental terms or conditions. Any amendment to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties only if such amendment references this Agreement and is executed by both Parties.

Priority | Description | Target Response Time | Bypass Delay | Target Resolution Time |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Critical Business Impact - means that the Cloud Service is not operational and no workaround is possible, or, a workaround exists but is unacceptable because of the impact on Licensee’s business. Error results in the use of the Software being severely affected or completely unavailable. In addition, error may involve downtime, outage, severe performance degradation, or other failure of one or more business critical systems, functions or services that adversely affects the ability of multiple end users to perform their functions. | 30 minutes | 1 business day | 4 business days |
2 | Serious Business Impact - means that the Cloud Service is operational, but its functionality is seriously affected, and implementing a workaround is time consuming and will adversely affect Licensee’s business. In addition, error may involve downtime, outage, serious performance degradation or other failure of one or more non-critical business systems, functions or services that adversely affects the ability of multiple end users to perform their functions. | Within 1 hour | 2 business days | 8 business days |
3 | Minor Business Impact - means that the Cloud Service is operational, but its functionality is affected and a workaround is available and acceptable. In addition, it may include an error or problem with a system, function or service that materially adversely affects an end user’s ability to process, but for which there is a reasonable and practical circumvention so that the affected end user can continue performing its functions with minimal loss of efficiency or functionality; or involves downtime, outages, performance degradation or other failure of a single non-critical system, function or service or affecting a single end user only. | Within 4 hours | N / A | 10 business days |
4 | Minor issue or question that does not affect the functionality of the Cloud Service, and can be readily circumvented. For example: “How to” questions; the text of a message, or page of documentation is worded poorly or misspelled, General Feedback, Feature Requests. | Within 2 business days | N / A | N / A |
Number of Cloud Service Administrators | Netwrix will provide Support Services to 2 administrators designed by Licensee (“Cloud Service Administrators”). Changes to the Cloud Service Administrators may be made by Licensee by email to the email stated below. |
