The Order Form is approved (i) upon acceptance by the issuance of a purchase order by the Customer corresponding to the Order Form; (ii) upon execution or acceptance in writing; or (iii) upon the Customer accessing the Services following the issuance of the Order Form (the “Order Form Approval”).

The Order Form takes precedence over these Terms of Services in the event of a conflict between the Order Form and the Terms of Services.

Customer may request changes to certain parameters set out in its Order Form by means of an Order Form Change Request (a “Change Request”) which may be approved by Lanla on a case-by-case basis, as required by Customer and acceptable to Lanla, in Lanla’s sole discretion.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms of Service, Lanla may change the Fees prior to each Subscription Term Renewal. If Lanla decides, in its sole discretion, to change the Fee, Lanla will notify Customer at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current Subscription Term by sending an email to the Notification Email Address.

Fees; Payments; Refunds

Subject to Section 8 hereof, you agree, during the Subscription Term, to pay us the fees described in the Order Form for our provision of the Services, all in accordance with this Section 6and the payment terms set forth in the Order Form (the “Fees”).

Customer agrees to pay the Fees within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. After this period, Lanla will issue a notice of overdue payment. If the situation is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the original invoice date, Lanla may suspend the Services at the end of such sixty (60) day period without further notice, and until all prior invoices have been paid. If the suspension continues for more than an additional sixty (60) days, Lanla may terminate these Terms of Services (or a particular Order Form) for cause, and Lanla shall have no obligation to provide the Services until all invoices have been paid. Any unpaid portion of the Fee after the due date shall bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (18% annually). Customer is responsible for all reasonable costs (including attorneys’ fees) that Lanla may incur to recover the outstanding Fees. The foregoing does not apply if any portion of the Fees is disputed in good faith, including if the matter is referred to mediation under section 23.b)or arbitration under section 23.c).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lanla is under no obligation to make such methods of payment available to Customer, and various methods of payment may be made available to Customer under the terms and conditions of the Order Form. We may change our billing options at any time by providing at least thirty (30) days notice to you at the Notification Email Address.

If you pay the Fee directly to one of our Resellers, the terms of payment are subject to the terms and conditions of the Reseller. We are not responsible for any dispute with a Reseller regarding the Fee.

Subject to applicable law, and unless the Services are terminated by you for cause pursuant to Section 22, the Services are non-refundable, and we are under no obligation to refund any Fees that you have already paid to us for any reason.

Taxes

If Lanla is required by law or in the administration of the law to collect applicable taxes from Customer, Customer will pay such taxes to Lanla concurrently with and in addition to the payment of the Fees (and concurrently with and in addition to the payment of any other financial consideration payable under this Agreement), unless Customer qualifies for an exemption from the payment of such applicable taxes, in which case Customer shall, in lieu of payment of any applicable taxes to Lanla, provide Lanla with such certifications, elections or other documents as may be required by or in connection with the administration of the Laws to corroborate and give effect to the exemption requested by Customer. If Lanla is not required by the Law or in the administration of the Law to collect applicable taxes, Customer will pay such taxes directly to the appropriate taxing authority and will provide proof of such payment to Lanla upon request.

Customer shall make all payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for any taxes (a “Tax Deduction”) unless a Tax Deduction is required by law. If the Act requires a Tax Deduction, then (i) if the Tax Deduction relates to taxes other than income taxes imposed on Lanla’s net income, then the relevant amount payable by Customer hereunder will be increased to the amount that, as a result of any required Tax Deduction, would allow Lanla to receive the amount that would have been received had no Tax Deduction been required; (ii) Customer shall, upon being notified that it is required to make a Tax Deduction (or that a change is made in the rate or method of calculating a Tax Deduction), notify Lanla accordingly; and (iii) Customer shall, within the time period specified, remit the amount of the Tax Deduction to the applicable tax authorities. Customer will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax Deduction (including, without limitation, by taking advantage of any reduction in the rate of tax under any applicable international double tax treaty in effect at the time).

7.     DURATION

The term of these Terms of Services becomes effective upon the beginning of the Trial Period or upon the Order Form Approval, as applicable, and continues for as long as an Order Form is active or until the end of the Trial Period if no Order Form is approved/concluded following such period (the “Term”).

The Subscription Term begins on the beginning of your Trial Period or on the date specified on the Order Form (as applicable) and ends at the end of the period specified on the Order Form or at the end of your Trial Period if no Order Form has been concluded following such Trial Period (the “Subscription Term”).
