Professional Services

These Terms & Conditions for Professional Services (“Terms”) form part of the agreement under which Armanino LLP dba AMF Media Group (“AMF Media Group, “we” or “us”) will provide services to you (“Services”), as more specifically described in the document referencing these Terms (“Letter”) (together with the Terms, the “Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms will have the meaning assigned in the Letter.

1. Services. We will perform the Services described in the Letter. Any changes to the Services will be subject to the agreement of both parties, with e-mail approval being sufficient in every instance unless otherwise stated expressly in the Letter.

2. Fees; Payments; Taxes. You will pay us the fees and expenses described in the Letter (“Fees”). Invoices will be submitted to you as the Services are performed and expenses are incurred. Invoices become delinquent if not paid within 30 days of the invoice date and will be subject to a 1% per month late charge. In addition, if you are delinquent in paying any invoice, we may immediately stop performing the Services and you will no longer be entitled to any discounted rates described in the Letter. You will also be charged for our reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and travel expenses, as well as an administrative and technology fee equal to 5%-7% of the Fees, unless otherwise stated in the Letter. Our fees are exclusive of taxes or similar charges, as well as customs, duties or tariffs imposed in respect of the Services, all of which you will pay (other than taxes imposed on our income) and indemnify us for nonpayment.

3. Your Information; Confidentiality. (A) In connection with the Services, either party (in each such case, the “Recipient”) may access or come into possession of the other party’s (in each such case, the “Discloser”) Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any information that is (i) marked or identified as confidential information, (ii) given the nature of the confidential information or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure reasonably should be understood to be confidential, or (iii) relates to or includes the existence or terms of the Agreement. Recipient will (1) not disclose to any third party without Discloser’s consent any of Discloser’s Confidential Information and (2) maintain Discloser’s Confidential Information in confidence using at least the same degree of care as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential or proprietary information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Section; (ii) is, at the time of disclosure by Discloser, already known to Recipient without any obligation restricting disclosure; (iii) is or was received from a third party who did not acquire or disclose such information by a wrongful or tortious act; or (iv) is or was independently developed by Recipient without use of Discloser’s Confidential Information. Recipient agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to protect any of Discloser’s Confidential Information exchanged electronically or stored in Recipient’s systems. However, the parties understand that such efforts are not fail safe and, as such, agree that,provided Recipient has taken commercially reasonable efforts to protect such information, any unauthorized access to such information, or attack on the systems of Recipient or third party vendors or tools used in provision of Services, shall not constitute a breach of this Section. Recipient may share Discloser’s Confidential Information: (w) with subcontractors, as applicable,that are providing services in connection with this Agreement and that have agreed to be bound by confidentiality obligations similar to those in this Section; or (x) as may be required by law, regulation, judicial or administrative process, or in accordance with applicable professional standards, or in connection with litigation pertaining to this Agreement; or (y) in any matter or dispute when Recipient needs to make disclosures to defend itself and the Services Recipient performed; or (z) on an anonymized basis in data aggregation benchmarking, tools or products for clients or prospective clients. Additionally, you authorize us to use your data, on an aggregated, de-identified basis, to create or develop, by or on behalf of Armanino, reports, studies, analyses (including statistical, data and trend analysis or benchmarking), data models or other work product(collectively, “Compiled Data”), which we shall be free to use for our business purposes, including sharing publicly or with other of our clients.Your raw data would not be available to anyone outside of our firm, and nothing in this section allows us to gain ownership of your data. (B) We keep workpapers relating to the Services for 7 years after which time they may be destroyed. We will return documents you provided relating to the Services to you upon request. If we receive a request (including a subpoena,summons or discovery demand in litigation) requesting the production of any documents or testimony relating to the Services, we will bill you for our time and expenses incurred in responding to the request, including attorneys’ fees.We will promptly inform you of any such request unless legally prohibited from doing so. Charges may apply for any additional requests for us to provide copies of your records.
