1. General

1.1 Scope. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Order Form, these MONDA ToS and the

Subscription Plan selected by Customer, MONDA shall (a) provide to Customer a Customer

Account, thus enabling Customer to access the Platform, (b) grant to Customer, subject to

the Availability, a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use such Customer Account, and

the Platform (including all Features comprised by Customer’s Subscription Plan) in the

Territory, and solely for the Purpose, (c) render additional Services to Customer (as

included in Customer’s Subscription Plan), and (d) provide Customer with applicable

support, including Scheduled Maintenance and Emergency Maintenance, for the Platform,

all (a) through (d) as further described in the Plan Overview and the Documentation. All

rights not expressly granted to Customer are reserved by MONDA. Through the Platform

Customer may (a) publish certain Data Offerings on one or multiple to get in touch and

close business with Channel Users; and (b) generally interact with Channel Users as

described in further detail herein-below and in the Documentation.

1.2 Role of Customer. By accepting these MONDA ToS, Customer acknowledges and agrees

that the Platform and all related Services are offered by MONDA solely and exclusively for

the Purpose and Customer confirms that in entering into an agreement with MONDA it is

acting in its capacity as a business. Any use of the Platform for private or other non-

business purposes is prohibited. MONDA may, at its reasonable discretion, request

additional information and evidence at any time during the Term to satisfy itself of

Customer's business capacity.

1.3 Role of MONDA. While Customer and Channel Users may directly interact and do business

with each other through the Channels that are accessible via the Platform, MONDA is not

a party to any contractual relationship between Customer and other Channel Users, and

MONDA cannot and will not guarantee any sales or sales opportunities with respect to

Customer Data Offerings on any Channel. MONDA neither sells nor buys any Data

Offerings, but it solely offers the Platform as an online software platform in order to make

the process of reaching Channel Users and creating business opportunities more efficient

and convenient for Customers.

1.4 Modifications of the Platform. Save Customer’s rights of use and MONDA’s warranties as

set out in the Order Form and these MONDA ToS, MONDA reserves the right, in its sole

discretion, to make changes to the Platform that it deems necessary or useful to: (a)

maintain or enhance (i) the quality or functionality of the Platform; (ii) the competitive

strength of or market for the Platform; or (iii) the Platform’s cost efficiency and/or

performance; or (b) to comply with any Applicable Laws. Modifications introduced by

MONDA pursuant to this section 1.4 may, at MONDA’s sole discretion, (x) include additional

Features that provide further functionality, compatibility, and/or interoperability to the

Platform and/or additional Services for Customer, and (y) be provided to Customer as (i) an

enhancement of an existing Subscription Plan; (ii) a new Subscription Plan; or (iii) an

optional Feature or Service for some or all Subscription Plans to which Customer may

subscribe (“Option”). Options may be subject to additional terms and conditions specific to

such Feature or Service which terms and conditions shall supplement and, in case of any

inconsistency, prevail over the terms and conditions of these MONDA ToS (“Option

Terms”). Options may also involve additional Subscription Fees or other forms of

remuneration, as more fully described in the relevant Option Terms.

Definitions. All capitalized terms used in these MONDA ToS shall have the meaning

ascribed to them in the Glossary (section 17). Terms defined in the singular shall have the

same meaning when used in the plural and vice versa.

2. Registration as a Customer, Customer Account

2.1 Selection of a Subscription Plan and Options. MONDA offers multiple Subscription Plans

for the Platform, and it may offer Options for the Platform during the Term. The Features

and Services available for Customer, and the Subscription Fees or other remuneration

payable to MONDA, differ depending on Customer’s selection of a Subscription Plan and

Options (if any). The Plan Overview comprises all information on the Features and Services

comprised by a given Subscription Plan and all Options available for that Subscription Plan,

and the Plan Overview contains detailed information on the applicable Subscription Fees

for each Subscription Plan and the additional remuneration for each Option (if any).

2.2 Subscription Request; Subscription Confirmation. An agreement between the Parties

with respect to the Purpose shall enter into force, and the terms and conditions of these

MONDA ToS shall inure to the benefit of the Parties only if Customer has signed in writing

or otherwise declared its acceptance of the terms and conditions comprised in a written

order form that contains the information pursuant to section 2.1 and incorporates the

terms and conditions of these MONDA ToS and any applicable Option Terms (if any), and

that has been provided to Customer by or on behalf of MONDA (“Order Form”). This

section 2.2 shall apply mutatis mutandis to any agreement between the Parties on

additional Option Terms.

2.3 Customized Subscription Plans; Order of Precedence. Customer may request, and

MONDA may, in its discretion, agree to provide to Customer a customized Subscription

Plan that differs from the Plan Overview in terms of the Features, Options, or Subscription

Fees. If the Parties agree on such customized Subscription Plan, all references in these

MONDA ToS to a Subscription Plan or the Plan Overview shall be construed to refer to the

customized Subscription Plan as set forth in the applicable Order Form. The Order Form

shall also prevail over the terms and conditions of these MONDA ToS in all other aspects.

2.4 Upgrade. Where Customer desires to augment its use of the Platform, Customer may, at

any time during the Term, request an upgrade of the agreed Subscription Plan. If MONDA

accepts such request, MONDA shall make available to Customer the Features and Services

comprised by such upgraded Subscription Plan and lift all Limitations in accordance with

the now applicable portion of the Plan Overview as of the date agreed between the Parties.

With each upgrade, section 7.1 of these MONDA ToS shall apply mutatis mutandis, the date

agreed between the Parties pursuant to this section 2.4 replacing the original

Commencement Date. Customer’s use of the upgraded Subscription Plan shall be subject

to the Subscription Fees payable by Customer for such Subscription Plan pursuant to the

Plan Overview. MONDA shall charge Customer with the balance between Customer’s

advance payment for the original Subscription Plan and the additional Subscription Fees

due for the upgraded Subscription Plan, calculated on a monthly pro rata basis.

2.5 Team Members. Upon registration of Customer’s Customer Account, Customer can

register Team Members for its Customer Account. Every Customer or Customer Affiliate’s

Representative that is or is supposed to be, directly or indirectly, working under Customer’s

Customer Account shall become a Team Member. Customer may create Team Member

accounts as it considers useful, whilst always bearing in mind the Team Member

Limitations of its Subscription Plan, the Territory, and the Purpose. The creation of Team

Member accounts requires the submission of a valid business email address that is

associated to the Customer’s business entity; using trashmail addresses or private

accounts (gmail.com etc.) for Team Members is not appropriate. Upon submission of the

information set out in the preceding sentence, MONDA will send an invitation email and

registration link to the email address indicated by Customer. MONDA is under no obligation

to verify whether the email address submitted by Customer is valid, or whether the holder

or each user of such email address is actually entitled to access Customer’s Customer

Account, including Data Offerings or other Confidential Information of Customer. Unless

otherwise agreed in writing, individual Team Member accounts and/or login credentials

may not be shared or used by more than one individual Team Member. Customer may, at

any time and in its sole discretion, initiate (a) the blocking of individual Team Member

accounts so as to temporarily exclude certain Team Members from further accessing

Customer’s Customer Account or (b) the deletion of individual Team Member accounts so

as to erase or anonymize all personal data relating to such Team Members in addition to

excluding them for further accessing the Platform.

2.6 SUSPENSION. MONDA MAY, WITH NOTICE TO CUSTOMER, SUSPEND CUSTOMER’S OR ANY

TEAM MEMBER’S ACCESS TO THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING THE CUSTOMER ACCOUNT IN

THE CASES DESCRIBED IN SECTION 6.5 (LATE PAYMENT) OR IF MONDA REASONABLY

CONCLUDES THAT CUSTOMER’S CUSTOMER ACCOUNT OR ANY SPECIFIC TEAM MEMBER

ACCOUNT:

(A) IS BEING USED IN VIOLATION OF THE RESTRICTIONS OF USE SET OUT IN SECTIONS 1.2

5.2 (COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS), 5.5 (RESTRICTIONS) OF THESE MONDA TOS; AND/OR

(ROLE OF CUSTOMER), 3.2 (CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES), 5.1 (USE OF THE PLATFORM),

(B) IS BEING USED IN VIOLATION OF THE APPLICABLE CHANNEL TERMS; AND/OR

(C) IS BEING USED TO ENGAGE IN DENIAL-OF-SERVICE ATTACKS, SPAMMING,

MISAPPROPRIATION OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS, OR ILLEGAL ACTIVITY; AND/OR

(D) IS CAUSING IMMEDIATE, MATERIAL AND ONGOING HARM TO MONDA OR OTHERS.

MONDA WILL ACT IN A DILIGENT, OBJECTIVE AND PROPORTIONATE MANNER IN APPLYING

AND ENFORCING THE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION 2.6, WITH DUE

REGARD TO THE RIGHTS AND LEGITIMATE INTERESTS OF ALL PARTIES INVOLVED,

INCLUDING THE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF CUSTOMER AND ITS TEAM MEMBERS, SUCH

AS THE FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, FREEDOM AND PLURALISM OF THE MEDIA, AND OTHER

AFFECTED FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS.

IN THE EXTRAORDINARY EVENT THAT MONDA SUSPENDS ANY SUCH ACCESS TO THE

PLATFORM OR CUSTOMER ACCOUNT, MONDA WILL USE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE

EFFORTS TO LIMIT THE SUSPENSION TO THE OFFENDING PORTION OR TEAM MEMBER

ACCOUNT(S) OF THE PLATFORM AND WORK WITH CUSTOMER TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES

CAUSING SUCH SUSPENSION, AND, AS APPROPRIATE IN LIGHT OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

PROMPTLY PROVIDE THE SUSPENDED TEAM MEMBER WITH A NEW TEAM MEMBER

ACCOUNT TO ACCESS THE PLATFORM. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT MONDA SHALL NOT BE

LIABLE FOR ANY SUSPENSION OF THE PLATFORM UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES

DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION 2.6.

3. Customer’s Data Offering

3.1 Publishing of Data Offerings. Subject to the Features and Services comprised by the

Subscription Plan and/or the Options selected, Customer may publish its Data Offering on

one or multiple Channels. Channels may be operated by Customer itself and/or by other

parties. Customer’s use of Channels to increase the exposure of Customer’s Data Offering

to Channel Users may be subject to specific Channel Terms and fees established for a

Channel, and the availability of certain Channels may vary depending on the Subscription

Plan and/or Options selected by Customer. Only upon Customer’s explicit opt-in and, if so

required in accordance with the applicable Channel Terms, confirmation from the owner

of the Channel, MONDA may activate a Channel for Customer to disseminate all or part of

Customer‘s Data Offering on such Channel and attempt to generate additional business

with Channel Users.

3.2 Customer’s Responsibilities. Customer has sole responsibility for the entry, deletion,

correction, accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual

property ownership or right to list, market, and disseminate Customer’s Data Offering

through each of the selected Channels, and, save sections 8 and 9 of these MONDA ToS, it

is Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure that the Data Resources for Customer’s Data

Offering have been collected and further processed at all times, including by uploading

them to the Platform and have them disseminated through one or multiple Channels, in

compliance with all Applicable Laws, in particular Data Protection Laws.

3.3 Technical Parameters. In addition to legal compliance pursuant to section 3.2, Customer

undertakes to always observe the technical parameters for any Data Offering as described

in the Documentation, and to avoid the upload of any duplicate Data Offerings.

3.4 MODERATION OF DATA OFFERINGS. MONDA RESERVES THE RIGHT, AT ITS DISCRETION,

(A) TO BLOCK OR DELETE ANY DATA OFFERINGS CUSTOMER HAS SET UP OR UPLOADED IN

VIOLATION OF SECTION 3.2; (B) TO BLUR ANY PERSONAL DATA THAT APPEARS IN THE DATA

RESOURCES; OR (C), IN CASE OF MINOR TECHNICAL NON-CONFORMITIES OF THE DATA

OFFERING, TO RECTIFY SUCH NON-CONFORMITIES. MONDA WILL ACT IN A DILIGENT,

OBJECTIVE AND PROPORTIONATE MANNER IN APPLYING AND ENFORCING THE

RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION 3.4, WITH DUE REGARD TO THE RIGHTS AND

LEGITIMATE INTERESTS OF ALL PARTIES INVOLVED, INCLUDING THE FUNDAMENTAL

RIGHTS OF CUSTOMER AND ITS TEAM MEMBERS, SUCH AS THE FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION,

FREEDOM AND PLURALISM OF THE MEDIA, AND OTHER AFFECTED FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

AND FREEDOMS UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS.

3.5 Rights to Data Offerings. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, and with the exception of the

warranties set out in the Order Form and these MONDA ToS, the Data Offering is provided

by Customer on an “as is” basis without any further warranties of any kind, either express

or implied, including but not limited to any warranties of fitness for a particular purpose.

Customer grants to MONDA a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license, during the

Term, to: (a) access, download, and store any Data Offering on the SaaS Infrastructure; and

(b) reproduce, copy, aggregate and otherwise use any Data Offering for the purposes of (i)

making available the Data Offering on the selected Channels and (ii) providing the Platform

and any additional Services to Customer.

3.6 Protection of Data Offerings. MONDA will maintain administrative, physical and technical

safeguards designed to protect the security, confidentiality, and integrity of the Data

Offering. Those safeguards will include, but will not be limited to, measures intended to

prevent unauthorized access, use, modification, or disclosure of the Data Offering. MONDA

shall only access Data Offerings as described in these MONDA ToS: (a) to support

Customer’s use of the Platform and/or the Channel(s) and prevent or address service or

technical problems; or (b) as Customer expressly permits in writing. Specifics on the

technical and organizational measures implemented to protect Data Offerings are set forth

in greater detail in the Data Processing Agreement.

3.7 Deletion of Data Offerings. Save any specific provisions in the applicable Channel Terms,

Customer will be enabled to delete any Data Offering from the Channels at any time during

the Term.

4. Information from Channels

4.1 Channel User Communications. Subject to the Subscription Plan and the applicable

Channel Terms, MONDA will synchronize information regarding the Customer's Data

Offering (if any) from the Channel(s) selected by the Customer to the Customer's Account

on the Platform. Information may include commercial leads, contact requests, requests for

data samples, or other Channel User requests. Customer may manage such requests on

the Platform although these MONDA ToS do not impose any obligation on Customer to

accept any commercial leads or to further communicate with any Channel Users upon

synchronization of such requests with the Customer Account on the Platform.

4.2 CRM Synchronization. Without prejudice to section 4.1 and subject to the Subscription

Plan and the applicable Channel Terms, Customer may, at its option, synchronize to its CRM

system the information received from the Channels. In using this Feature, Customer shall

at all times ensure that it acts in full compliance with applicable Data Protection Laws.

5. What Do We Need You to Promise?

5.1 Use of the Platform. Customer will: (a) be responsible for all activity occurring under its

Customer Account, including all Team Member accounts and its Team Members’

compliance with these MONDA ToS; (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent

unauthorized access to or use of its Customer Account, including by treating as confidential

all login credentials and access information provided to it, and notify MONDA promptly of

any such unauthorized access or use; (c) use the Platform and all Channels only in

accordance with the Documentation, these MONDA ToS and Applicable Laws, in particular

Data Protection Laws; and (d) provide MONDA with all reasonably available information if

Customer reports a non-conformance in the Platform and/or any Channel so that MONDA

may diagnose and remedy such non-conformance and/or inform the provider of such

Channel accordingly. In addition, MONDA will display to and have all Team Members

confirm to have acknowledged MONDA’s Acceptable Use Policy prior to accessing the

Platform.

5.2 Compliance with Laws. Customer will be solely responsible for, and agrees to comply

with, all Applicable Laws with respect to the use of and access to the Platform, including

without limitation any Applicable Laws regarding the export and re-export from any

jurisdiction of software, technical data and information or derivatives of such software, or

technical data and information.

5.3 Reporting Mechanism for Illegal Content. If Customer finds or suspects that information

available on the Platform is unlawful, Customer may report this content. MONDA provides

a procedure on the Platform for the purely electronic reporting of information that has

been identified as unlawful and is accessible on the Platform. Each report must contain (a)

a duly substantiated explanation as to why the reporting person considers the information

in question to be unlawful; (b) a clear indication of the exact electronic location of this

information, such as the exact URL address(es); (c) the name and email address of the

reporting person or entity, unless the information is deemed to relate to a criminal offence

involving the sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children and child pornography; and

(d) a statement that the reporting person or entity has a good faith belief that the

information and particulars contained in the report are accurate and complete. Upon

receipt of a report in accordance with the above section, MONDA will promptly send an

acknowledgement of receipt of the report to the electronic contact address provided by

the reporting individual. MONDA will process all reports in accordance with this section 5.3

and will decide on the reported information promptly, carefully, without arbitrariness and

objectively. If MONDA uses automated means for this processing or decision making, it will

provide appropriate information in connection with the provision of the reporting channel

in accordance with this section 5.3. MONDA will immediately inform the person concerned

of its decision regarding the reported information and point out the possible legal remedies

against this decision. In case of suspicion of a criminal offense, MONDA may be obliged to

inform the competent law enforcement or judicial authorities in accordance with

Applicable Laws.

5.4 Eligibility of Channel Users. Without prejudice to any provision of the applicable Channel

Terms imposing further know-your-customer obligations on Customer, Customer is

obliged to convince itself that (a) each Channel User is a company, duly established under

applicable laws at Channel User’s place of business; (b) Channel User is not a Restricted

Person; and (c) Channel User is not in any case a natural person that is acting for purposes

which are outside this person’s trade, business, craft or profession.

5.5 Restrictions. Customer is not allowed to and will not: (a) license, sublicense, sell, resell,

transfer, assign, distribute, or otherwise commercially exploit or make available to any third

party (with the exception of Customer Affiliates) the Platform or the Customer Account,

except as otherwise expressly permitted under these MONDA ToS; (b) modify or make

derivative works based upon the Platform, or otherwise violate MONDA’s Intellectual

Property Rights in the Platform; (c) download or otherwise copy any MONDA or third-party

data, data bundles, data products, or data articles so as to duplicate it outside the Platform;

(d) reverse engineer or access the Platform in order to: (i) build a competitive product or

service; (ii) build a product using similar ideas, features, functions or graphics of the

Platform; or (iii) copy any ideas, features, functions or graphics of the Platform; (e) send or

store infringing, obscene, threatening, libelous, or otherwise unlawful or tortious Data

Offerings or other material to the Platform; (f) send or store Data Offerings or other

material containing viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spam, or other harmful computer code,

files, scripts, agents, or programs to or from the Platform; (g) interfere with or disrupt the

integrity or performance of the Platform or any other MONDA or third-party data, data

bundles, data products, or data articles contained in it, including but not limited to engaging

in denial of service attacks; (h) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Platform, any

MONDA or third-party data, data bundles, data products, or data articles, or its systems or

networks; (i) submit for publishing any reviews concerning its own Data Offerings or its own

handling of Channel Users; or (j) use the Platform in violation of any Applicable Law,

including but not limited to Data Protection Laws.

5.6 Cooperation Duties. Customer shall support MONDA during the Term to a reasonable

extent, and Customer, in particular, shall designate at least one dedicated contact person

for the performance of the Order Form and these MONDA ToS, both for commercial and

technical questions, that is duly authorized by Customer to legally represent Customer.

Customer shall have the right to change any such contact person only upon prior written

notice to MONDA. MONDA shall not be liable for a failure to provide the Platform or

Customer Account in accordance with these MONDA ToS to the extent that such failure is

based on Customer’s failure to provide the cooperation or assistance pursuant to this

section 5.6. Furthermore, Customer shall reimburse MONDA for the costs reasonably

incurred due to Customer’s failure to provide the required cooperation or assistance.

However, this shall not apply to the extent that MONDA failed to take the mitigation actions

described hereinafter. If Customer fails to provide the cooperation or assistance pursuant

to this section 5.6, MONDA shall (a) prove to have advised Customer of the required

cooperation in advance; (b) notify Customer about its failure to provide the respective

cooperation or assistance; and (c) use commercially reasonable endeavors to avoid or

mitigate the impact of such omission by Customer on the (timely) provision of the Platform.

5.7 Indemnification. Customer will indemnify and defend MONDA and its Affiliates, and

Representatives against any and all costs, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses

(including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of (a) a claim by a third party alleging that

any of Customer’s Data Offerings infringes its Intellectual Property Rights; (b) a violation of

Applicable Laws , including, but not limited to, Data Protection Laws, Sanctions Regulations,

or Applicable Laws related to export controls; or (c) Customer’s violation of any applicable

Channel Terms. The rights and remedies granted to MONDA under this section 5.7 shall

only apply if Customer acted at least negligently. In the event of an indemnity obligation

under this section 5.7, MONDA shall: (a) promptly notify Customer in writing of such claim;

(b) allow Customer sole control of its defense and settlement; and (c) provide Customer

with all available information and reasonable assistance at Customer’s expense.

6. What Are Your Payment Obligations?

6.1 Subscription Fees. MONDA may charge and collect payments from Customer, including

without limitation Subscription Fees. All fees payable by Customer are set forth in the Plan

Overview. Customer agrees to pay MONDA all fees and expenses owed to MONDA in the

amounts and the times specified in an applicable MONDA invoice and these MONDA ToS.

6.2 Payment of Subscription Fees. Subscription Fees shall become payable and be paid to

MONDA, within the payment period specified in the Plan Overview for the applicable

Subscription Plan, upon Customer’s receipt of the respective invoice from MONDA. MONDA

shall invoice the Subscription Fees monthly, quarterly, or annually in advance in accordance

with Customer’s selection. All payments to MONDA shall be made in Euros (EUR) or US

Dollars (USD) and only via the payment methods explicitly suggested by MONDA.

6.3 Adjustment of Fees. MONDA may adjust the fees set forth in the Plan Overview as

appropriate. Adjustments shall be made to reflect increased value from new Features,

additional Channels, changes in cost incurred for salaries and wages as well as purchasing

IT services. Adjustments shall take effect from the date specified by MONDA, nonetheless

no sooner than one month after Customer’s receipt of notification of the fee adjustment.

6.4 Billing Information. Customer agrees to provide MONDA with complete and accurate

billing and contact information including (a) its legal company name, street address;

(b) email, name and telephone number of an authorized billing contact and/or responsible

person(s); (c) its Value Added Tax (or a similar tax) and company registration codes

(regardless of whether VAT is not applicable due to reversed-charge procedure); and

(d) any purchase order or other numbers or references MONDA should state in its invoices.

Customer agrees to update this information, by respectively updating the data on the

Platform, within thirty (30) days of any change to it. If Customer fails to provide or timely

update any of the foregoing information, MONDA shall be entitled to use for any invoice

the latest information provided by Customer; in such event, Customer shall have no claim

whatsoever to dispute the invoice or delay payment of the invoice on the ground of missing

or incorrect billing and/or contact information.

6.5 Late Payment. Delinquent invoices are subject to the statutory interest rates on any

outstanding balance and reimbursement of expenses incurred by MONDA. If a payment is

not disputed in good faith (and in addition to its other rights), MONDA reserves the right to

terminate the Order Form, or to suspend Customer’s access to the Platform in accordance

with section 2.6 if any delinquent payment is not received by MONDA within fourteen (14)

days after notice to Customer of such delinquency.

6.6 Taxes; Payment Fees. MONDA’s Subscription Fees or any other fees do neither include

Taxes, nor include any Payment Fees. Customer shall be responsible for paying all Taxes

associated with its use of the Platform and all Channels as well as all Payment Fees in

connection with its payment of MONDA’s invoices. If MONDA has the legal obligation to pay

or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this paragraph, MONDA will

invoice Customer, and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides MONDA

with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For

clarity, MONDA is solely responsible for taxes assessable against MONDA based on its net

income, property and employees.

6.7 Set-off. Customer may not set off any amount against invoices of MONDA unless MONDA

has acknowledged in writing to owe such amount, or it has been held in an uncontested

court decision that MONDA owes such amount.

7. When Does the Agreement Commence, and How Long Will It Last?

7.1 Term. The agreement between the Parties commences on the Effective Date. The

agreement will remain in force for the Initial Term, and it will be tacitly and automatically

renewed for consecutive Renewal Terms, unless either Party elects to terminate the

underlying Order Form by giving the respective other Party written notice at least ninety

(90) days prior to the then current end date.

7.2 Termination for Cause. Either Party may, by written notice to the respective other Party,

terminate the Order Form for cause and with immediate effect: (a) upon at least fourteen

(14) days’ written notice to the other Party of a material breach if such breach remains

uncured at the expiration of such period whereby all cases set forth in section 2.6 shall be

considered a material breach of Customer’s obligations; or (b) if the other Party becomes

the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency,

receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors and, as a consequence,

the other Party has reason to believe that such Party will no longer be able to fulfill its non-

payment obligations under the Order Form including these MONDA ToS. Any other

statutory rights of the Parties to declare extraordinary termination shall remain unaffected.

7.3 Consequences of Termination or Expiration. If the Order Form is terminated or if it

expires for whatever reason: (a) any rights to use the Platform shall expire; and (b)

Customer is obliged to cease using or attempting to access the Platform via its Customer

Account. However, a termination or expiration of the Order Form shall not relieve

Customer of the obligation to pay any Subscription Fees or other fees payable to MONDA

that exist at the effective date of such termination or expiration. Notwithstanding the

aforesaid, Customer acknowledges and agrees that MONDA has no right or obligation to

retain any Data Offerings or other Customer data more than thirty (30) days after

termination or expiration of the Order Form and will delete or destroy any Data Offerings

or other Customer data in its possession or control thirty (30) days after termination or

expiration of the Order Form, unless where Customer or MONDA is aware that a statutory

obligation requires MONDA to retain some of the Data Offerings or other Customer data.

In such circumstances, of which Customer or MONDA shall inform the other Party in writing

prior to or at the time of termination, MONDA will destroy this Data Offering or other

Customer data as soon as such statutory obligation to retain them expires. For the

avoidance of doubt, MONDA shall have no right to create Aggregated Data upon the

effective date of a termination of the Order Form.

8. What Do We Promise You?

8.1 MONDA’s Warranties. MONDA warrants that, when used in accordance with the

Documentation, the functionality of the Platform will be substantially in accordance with

the Documentation. In the event of defects or malfunctions attributable to MONDA,

MONDA may initially remedy the defect by releasing updates which do not contain the

defect or by patching the Platform to remedy the defect. If MONDA fails to rectify a defect,

Customer may, at its discretion, reduce the fees payable to MONDA or, unless the defect

only insignificantly impairs the contractual use of the Platform, terminate the Order Form

for cause. Subsequent performance, however, shall only be deemed to have failed if

Customer has given MONDA sufficient opportunity to remedy the defect within a

reasonable period of time without the due success having been achieved. The provision of

a provisional solution that circumvents the defect (‘workaround’) shall be taken into

account when determining the time limit.

8.2 MONDA Personnel. MONDA will be responsible for the performance of its personnel

(including employees and contractors) and their compliance with the obligations set forth

in the Order Form and these MONDA ToS.

8.3 Third-Party Claims. If Customer becomes aware of a third party's allegation that the

provision and/or use of the Platform infringes its Intellectual Property Rights or those of

other third parties, Customer shall immediately inform MONDA accordingly. As far as

possible, MONDA will take over, at its own expense, the defense against claims asserted on

the basis of the alleged infringement of Intellectual Property Rights and conduct any

negotiations regarding the settlement of the legal dispute. Customer shall support MONDA

in this respect as far as reasonable and conducive to defense and settlement discussions.

MONDA's liability for defects of title shall remain unaffected.

8.4 Limitations of Warranties. Customer acknowledges that MONDA does not control the

transfer of data over communications facilities, including the Internet, and that the use of

the Platform may be subject to limitations, delays, and other problems inherent in the use

of such communications facilities. Customer also acknowledges that MONDA factual power

to influence provision of the SaaS Infrastructure is limited. In addition, MONDA shall not be

liable if the use of the Platform is impaired due to improper installation, operation, or

maintenance by Customer or a third-party on Customer’s behalf. In particular, any

warranty shall be excluded for impairments caused by the fact that the Platform is used

under conditions that do not correspond to the hardware and software environment

specified in the Documentation. MONDA will not be responsible for any destruction,

damage, loss, or failure to store any Data Offering beyond its reasonable control or

resulting from a failure in data transmission or operation of the Platform by Customer.

9. To Which Extent Will We Be Liable to You?

9.1 General. With the exception of liability (a) due to injury to life, limb or health; (b) in the

event of willful misconduct or gross negligence; (c) for a breach of an independent quality

guarantee (“Beschaffenheitsgarantie”); and/or (d) that cannot be limited in accordance with

Applicable Laws, MONDA's liability shall be limited or excluded as follows.

9.2 Limitation of Liability. In the event of negligence, MONDA shall, in the absence of an

explicit agreement of the Parties on a liability cap, only be liable for the breach of

substantial contractual obligations, thus obligations, the fulfilment of which makes the

proper execution of the Order Form including these MONDA ToS possible at all, and the

breach of which endangers the achievement of the Purpose, and the compliance with

which Customer may, as a rule, rely upon. In these cases, the liability of MONDA is limited

to the damages that are foreseeable according to the type of the business in question, and

that are typical for the contract.

9.3 No Liability Without Fault. MONDA shall not be liable for defects in the Platform that

already existed at the Effective Date regardless of MONDA’s fault, unless MONDA (a)

maliciously concealed the defect from the Customer or (b) expressly promised the

availability of the respective functionality, compatibility or interoperability.

9.4 Exclusion of Liability. All other liability on the part of MONDA shall be excluded regardless

of its legal and factual foundation. All liability claims shall become statute-barred within

twelve (12) months.

9.5 Liability of MONDA Staff. Insofar as the liability of MONDA is excluded or limited, this also

applies to the personal liability of MONDA’s Affiliates, Representatives, and vicarious

agents.

10. Ownership of Intellectual Property Rights

10.1 MONDA’s Intellectual Property. No jointly owned Intellectual Property Rights are created

under or in connection with the Order Form including these MONDA ToS. MONDA owns all

rights, title and interest, including all related Intellectual Property Rights, in and to the

MONDA Technology, the Platform, and the Aggregated Data. The foregoing also includes

any and all system performance data and machine learning, including machine learning

algorithms, and the results and output of such machine learning unless stated to the

contrary in these MONDA ToS. In addition, Customer acknowledges that MONDA may use,

copy, extract, modify, distribute, analyze, compile and display the Aggregated Data for

routine business purposes, including without limitation for developing, enhancing,

improving, and supporting MONDA products and services, or as required by law, and may

share versions of the Aggregated Data.

Information shall belong and continue to belong to the Disclosing Party, and, unless stated

to the contrary in these MONDA ToS, no license is granted to the Receiving Party to use the

same other than for the Purpose, subject to the terms of these MONDA ToS.

10.4 Customer Ideas. Unless explicitly stated to the contrary at the time of their provision to

MONDA, by providing to MONDA any Customer Ideas, Customer agrees and/or undertakes

that (a) Customer Ideas do not contain the confidential or proprietary information of third

parties; (b) MONDA is under no obligation of confidentiality, express or implied, with

respect to the Customer Ideas; and (c) MONDA may have something similar to the

Customer Ideas already under consideration or in development. Customer, as regards

Customer Ideas, grants MONDA an irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual,

worldwide license to use, modify, prepare derivative works of, publish, distribute, and

sublicense any Customer Ideas, and Customer irrevocably waives, and causes to be waived,

against MONDA and any users of MONDA’s Platform or any other of MONDA’s or its

assertions of any moral rights contained in such Customer Ideas.

11. How to Deal with Confidential Information?

or make available the Confidential Information in whole or in part to any third party, except

as expressly permitted by these MONDA ToS; and/or (c) not copy, adapt, disclose, confirm

or deny (in each case orally, or in writing or in any other way) or otherwise record the

Confidential Information except as strictly necessary for the Purpose (and any such copies,

reductions to writing and records shall be Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party);

and/or (d) not modify, decompile, reassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise analyze any

parts of the Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party’s explicit written consent.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, nothing in this Agreement shall be read or

construed so as to impose an obligation on the Receiving Party that would conflict with any

obligations imposed on the Receiving Party by Applicable Laws, in which case the Receiving

Party shall notify the Disclosing Party of such obligation unless prohibited to do so under

such Applicable Laws.

11.2 Restrictions of Use. The Receiving Party may only disclose the Disclosing Party’s

Confidential Information to those of its Representatives who need to know the relevant

Confidential Information for the Purpose and provided that: (a) it informs the relevant

Representative of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information prior to any such

disclosure; (b) at the request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall ensure that

any such Representative signed an undertaking (in such terms as the Disclosing Party may

reasonably require) to be bound by the obligations contained in this Agreement or is under

professional secrecy obligations; (c) at all times, the Receiving Party is responsible for its

Representatives’ compliance with the obligations set out in these MONDA ToS; and (d) it

keeps a written record of each such Representative..

11.3 Security Precautions; Notification. The Receiving Party agrees to: (a) take (at its own

expense) all reasonable security precautions or other steps (at least as great as the

precautions and steps taken in respect of its own Confidential Information, but in any event

in a manner not less than reasonable care appropriate to the nature of the Confidential

Information) to protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and ensure that the

obligations of these MONDA ToS are met; and (b) notify the Disclosing Party immediately

upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential

Information or any other breach of this section 11 and will cooperate with the Disclosing

Party to prevent further unauthorized use or disclosure.

11.4 Aggregated Data. For the avoidance of doubt, Aggregated Data shall not constitute

Confidential Information of Customer. Aggregated Data shall, however, be Confidential

Information of MONDA.

11.5 Disclosure on Legal Reasons. Other than permitted pursuant to the preceding

paragraphs of this section 11. the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information

only to the extent required by Applicable Law, by any governmental or other regulatory

authority or by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction provided that, to the

extent it is legally permitted to do so, it gives the Disclosing Party as much notice of such

disclosure as possible and, where notice of disclosure is not prohibited and is given in

accordance with this section 11.5, it takes into account the reasonable requests of the

Disclosing Party in relation to the content of such disclosure. Without prejudice to the

generality of the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall use all reasonable efforts to protect

the Confidential Information by appropriate procedural measures, corresponding to the

nature of the Confidential Information.

11.6 Return or Destruction. At the written request of the Disclosing Party, however, at the

latest upon expiration or termination of the Order Form, the Receiving Party shall promptly:

(a) destroy or (at the option of the Disclosing Party) return to the Disclosing Party all

possession or control containing, reflecting, incorporating, relating to, derived from or

based on the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information; (b) erase all the Disclosing Party’s

Confidential Information to the extent possible from its computer systems and any other

duplicates of any such items; and (d) certify in writing (signed by an authorized

Representative of the Receiving Party) to the Disclosing Party that it has complied with the

requirements of this section 11.6, provided that a Receiving Party may retain documents

and materials containing, reflecting, incorporating, or based on the Disclosing Party’s

Confidential Information to the extent required by law or any applicable governmental or

regulatory authority, and to the extent reasonable to permit the Receiving Party to keep

evidence that it has performed its obligations under the Order Form including these

MONDA ToS, as well as copies of any computer records and files containing Confidential

Information that have been created by Receiving Party’s routine and automatic archiving /

backup procedures. The confidentiality provisions of these MONDA ToS shall continue to

apply to any such documents and materials retained by the Receiving Party.

11.7 Remedies. The Receiving Party acknowledges that damages alone would not be an

adequate remedy for the breach of any of the provisions of this section 11. Accordingly,

without prejudice to any other rights and remedies it may have, the Disclosing Party shall

be entitled to the granting of equitable relief (including without limitation injunctive relief

and specific performance) in addition to any damages or other remedy to which it may be

entitled, concerning any threatened or actual breach of any of the provisions of this section

11. The Receiving Party shall be liable to the Disclosing Party for the actions or omissions

of its Representatives in relation to the Confidential Information as if they were the actions

or omissions of the Receiving Party.

of the Order Form, regardless of cause, and shall continue to apply for a period of five (5)

years from the effective date of such termination or expiration.

not apply where, prior to the Effective Date, the Parties have entered, or, after the Effective

Date, enter into a separate agreement on the Parties’ obligations as regards the respective

other Party’s Confidential Information relating to the Purpose.

12. How to Deal with the Processing of Personal Data?

12.1 Processing by the Parties. The Parties hereto acknowledge that, for the purposes of

particular, make available to any Team Member, the privacy policy available in the

12.2 Data Processing on Behalf of Customer. Where Customer submits to the Platform any

Data Offering that consists of, comprises, or contains Personal Data, MONDA Processes

Personal Data as a Processor on Customer’s behalf, who will be the Controller. The

Processing of Personal Data will be carried out in accordance with the obligations and

information set forth in the Data Processing Agreement.

12.3 Evaluation of Compliance. Notwithstanding any liability obligation on the part of MONDA,

Customer, in order to best mitigate the adverse effects of such discovery, shall immediately

inform MONDA if, under Data Protection Laws, any Data Offering, Usage Data, or

Aggregated Data would constitute, consist of or contain a category of data the Processing

of which by MONDA, in accordance with such Data Protection Laws, would impose further

obligations on Customer, MONDA, or both Parties.

13. What Happens If We Disagree?

comprehensive trade agreements with relevance for the contractual relationship); (b)

regulatory gaps in the terms and conditions of these MONDA ToS; or (c) changes required

upon a modification of the Platform, including the introduction of new Features and/or

Services. Any such changes shall enter into force only on the date respectively specified by

MONDA and communicated in advance to Customer. For this purpose, MONDA shall

inform Customer in writing in good time, i.e. no later than six (6) weeks before the changes

shall come into force. This reservation of right to make changes shall not include changes

that would unreasonably disadvantage Customer by significantly disturbing the contractual

balance between the Parties, including by introducing changes that would counteract

individual arrangements between MONDA and the Customer in an Order Form.

14.2 Special Right of Termination. In the event of a modification or an amendment to these

MONDA ToS, Customer shall have a special right of termination. Customer may exercise

this right until the announced change takes effect, and it may terminate this MONDA ToS

weeks.

corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a

competitor of the other Party. In the event of an assignment as described in the preceding

assignment. Neither Party may assign the Order Form to a competitor of the other Party

without that other Party’s consent. Subject to the foregoing, the Order Form will bind and

inure to the benefit of the Parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any

assignment in violation of this section 15.6 shall be deemed void ab initio. The previous

sentences of this section 15.6 shall not apply, and nothing herein shall restrict the Parties
