In the event Client chooses to order products or Services from PC Connection Sales Corporation or any of its Affiliates (“Service Provider”) utilizing the Internet or Service Provider’s website, the terms and conditions contained therein shall apply to any such products or Services ordered. The cost, installation and functioning of all products not provided by Service Provider in rendering Services hereunder, including, without limitation, electric power, electrical wiring, cabling, telephone equipment, computers, modems, printers, tables, etc. shall be Client’s sole responsibility.

Pricing & Terms of Payment

(b) All terms are net 30 days, unless otherwise specified in the SOW, contingent upon Client qualifying for credit with Service Provider. Should Client not qualify for sufficient credit with Service Provider, payment must be made via other acceptable form such as credit card or prepayment. Failure to pay within specified terms may at the option of Service Provider result in the suspension of the contract, imposition of interest charges at the rate of a 1.5% per month or the highest allowed by law, whichever is lower, and may result in the termination of the contract by Service Provider upon written notice.

(c) The SOW shall specify whether the contract is based on a fixed price or hourly rate. All reasonable travel, lodging, car rentals, and meal expenses will be billed to the Client unless otherwise specified in SOW or Exhibit.

(d) Any sales and use taxes shall be added to the invoice. In the event Client claims exemption from sales and use taxes, Client must provide Service Provider with the appropriate tax exemption certificate from the taxing authority.

Fees & Taxes
Client, at its expense, shall pay, discharge, and be responsible for, all licensee fees, business, sales, use, or other similar taxes or assessments charged or levied by reason of anything performed under this Agreement, excluding, however, all taxes and assessments applicable to Service Provider income or applicable to Service Provider property. If Service Provider is required to remit any fee, tax, or duty on behalf of or for the account of Client, Client will reimburse Service Provider within ten (10) days after Service Provider notifies Client in writing of such remittance.

Proprietary Rights
Except for any Deliverables as set forth in a SOW, Service Provider does not convey or transfer nor does Client obtain any right or interest in any of the software programs, systems, tools, data or materials or process utilized or provided by Service Provider in connection with the performance of this Agreement, including but not limited to the WebSPOC® software. Service Provider grants to Client a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide right to use the technology imbedded in the Services.

Upon the failure of Client to comply with the responsibilities set forth in this Section (“Non-compliance”), Service Provider may, at its option, refuse to perform any Service where Non-compliance has occurred until such Non-compliance has been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Service Provider without any liability or obligation under this Agreement or any applicable law; provided further, that Service Provider may charge Client at its then current labor rates for any Service call at which no Service was performed by Service Provider as a result of Non-compliance.

In the event Service Provider holds, stores, or provides storage Services for any of Client’s property, including but not limited to any computer hardware or products, Client is required to maintain insurance on such property at its own expense and shall provide Service Provider with a certificate of insurance naming Service Provider as an additional insured. In case of loss, Client’s insurance shall be primary and Service Provider’s coverage, if any, shall be non-contributory. Unless otherwise provided by an Exhibit, Service Provider has no liability for Client’s property stored at Service Provider’s premises.

Limited Warranty
(a) Computer & Technical Services. Service Provider shall provide computer and/or other technical Services in a good workmanlike and professional manner consistent with current industry standards, and that such Services shall for a period of sixty (60) days following completion conform to the specifications in the Scope of Work. The foregoing limited warranty is contingent upon Client fulfilling the Client responsibilities set forth above and any other conditions that may be specified in the applicable SOW. All product and Service completion schedules provided by Service Provider are estimates and are provided for planning purposes only.

In the event Client finds any Services provided hereunder to be defective or nonconforming during the warranty period, subject to the limitations set forth above, Service Provider shall promptly correct such Services to the reasonable satisfaction of Client in accordance with the specifications set forth in the SOW. In the event such corrected Services fail to comply with the specifications set forth in the SOW, then at Client’s option, Service Provider shall again promptly correct such Services or shall reimburse to Client the payments made to Service Provider for such Services. The foregoing constitutes Client’s sole remedy for Service warranty claims relating to computer and technical Services.

To the extent Service Provider is supplying third-party hardware or software as part of the Services, such hardware and software shall be provided with the manufacturers’ or publishers’ standard end user warranties, if any. Service Provider makes no independent warranties with regards to third-party hardware or software.
