9. Fees & Payment.
- Fees
Customer will pay, and authorises Matta to charge using Customer's selected payment method, for all applicable fees after any invoice or Order Form within 30 days or as otherwise provided in the Order Form. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Matta. Any amount not paid when due will bear interest from the due date until paid at a rate equal to 1% per month (12.68% annually) or the maximum allowed by law, whichever is less. Customer will be liable for all legal and other expenses associated with collecting any overdue fees. Fees are non-refundable except as required by law or specified herein. Matta may suspend or terminate the Services if fees are past due.
- Modifications to the Services
Matta may update the Services from time to time. If Matta changes the Services in a manner that materially reduces their functionality, Customer may provide notice within 30 days of the change to terminate the Agreement and receive a pro-rata refund of prepaid fees for the Services. This termination right will not apply to features provided on a beta or evaluation basis.
- Taxes
Customer is responsible for all taxes. Matta will charge tax when required to do so.
- Purchase Orders
If Customer requires the use of a purchase order or purchase order number, Customer (i) must provide the purchase order number at the time of purchase and (ii) agrees that any terms and conditions on a Customer purchase order will not apply to this Agreement and are null and void.
10. Suspension.
- Of End User Accounts by Matta
If an End User (i) violates this Agreement or the Matta Terms and Conditions, or (ii) uses the Services in a manner that Matta reasonably believes will cause it liability, then Matta may request that Customer suspend or terminate the applicable End User account and may suspend all or some of Customer’s access to the Services.
- Security Emergencies
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, if there is a Security Emergency then Matta may automatically suspend use of the Services. Matta will make commercially reasonable efforts to narrowly tailor the suspension as needed to prevent or terminate the Security Emergency. "Security Emergency" means: (i) use of the Services that do or could disrupt the Services, other customers' use of the Services, or the infrastructure used to provide the Services and (ii) unauthorised third party access to the Services.
11. Term & Termination.
- Term
Each Service will be provided for the subscription term set forth in the Order Form. This Agreement will remain in effect until Customer's subscription to the Services under all Order Forms expires or terminates, or until the Agreement is terminated.
- Renewal
Each Order Form will automatically renew for an additional subscription term of equal length, unless either party terminates the subscription at least 30 days prior to the existing subscription term’s end.
- Termination
In addition to termination at the end of a subscription term, either Matta or Customer may terminate this Agreement (including all Order Forms) if: (i) the other party is in material breach of the Agreement and fails to cure that breach within 30 days after receipt of written notice or (ii) the other party ceases its business operations or becomes subject to insolvency proceedings and the proceedings are not dismissed within 90 days. Matta may also terminate this Agreement with immediate effect in its sole discretion at any time (with a pro-rata refund of prepaid fees for unused Services).
- Effects of Termination
If this Agreement terminates: (i) the rights granted by Matta to Customer will cease immediately (except as set forth in this section); and (ii) Matta may provide Customer access to its account at reasonable fees so that Customer may export its Customer Data. Those terms that by their nature should survive either expiration or termination of this Agreement will survive, including but not limited to the parties’ obligations with respect to confidential information, intellectual property rights, ownership, indemnification and limitation of liability. For the avoidance of doubt, upon termination of this agreement, Customer may not use Matta Services and must ensure that any previously sold Customer products do not continue to use Matta Services.
12. Indemnification.
- By Customer
Customer will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Matta from and against all liabilities, damages, and costs (including settlement costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any claim by a third party against Matta and its Affiliates regarding: (i) Customer Data; (ii) Customer's use of the Services in violation of this Agreement; (iii) End Users’ use of the Services in violation of this Agreement; or (iv) Customer’s own products or services, including those integrating the Services, except as directly caused by the Services.
- By Matta
Matta will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer from and against all liabilities, damages, and costs (including settlement costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any claim by a third party against Customer to the extent based on an allegation that Matta's technology used to provide the Services to the Customer infringes or misappropriates any copyright, trade secret, U.K. or EU patent, or trademark right of the third party. In no event will Matta have any obligations or liability under this section arising from: (i) use of any Services in a modified form or in combination with materials not furnished by Matta and (ii) any content, information, or data provided by Customer, End Users, or other third parties.
- Possible Infringement
If Matta believes the Services infringe or may be alleged to infringe a third party's Intellectual Property Rights, then Matta may: (i) obtain the right for Customer, at Matta's expense, to continue using the Services; (ii) provide a noninfringing functionally equivalent replacement; or (iii) modify the Services so that they no longer infringe. If Matta does not believe the options described in this section are commercially reasonable then Matta may suspend or terminate Customer's use of the affected Services (with a pro-rata refund of prepaid fees for unused Services).
- General
The party seeking indemnification will promptly notify the other party of the claim and cooperate with the other party in defending the claim. The indemnifying party will have full control and authority over the defence, except that: (i) any settlement requiring the party seeking indemnification to admit liability requires prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) the other party may join in the defence with its own counsel at its own expense. THE INDEMNITIES ABOVE ARE MATTA AND CUSTOMER'S ONLY REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR VIOLATION BY THE OTHER PARTY OF A THIRD PARTY'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
13. Disclaimers

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR MATTA AND ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, AND DISTRIBUTORS MAKE ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

If a dispute is not resolved within 30 days of notice, Customer or Matta may bring a formal proceeding.
