If a claim is made that Issuer’s use of the Platform infringes on the rights of a third party then Diversified will, at its sole expense and as Issuer’s sole remedy, defend against such claim and pay any final judgment against Issuer, provided that Issuer promptly notifies Diversified of any such claim in writing and Diversified is given sole control over the defense and settlement of such claim. Diversified may, without the knowledge or consent of Issuer, agree to any resolution of the dispute that does not require on the part of Issuer a payment or an admission of wrongdoing. Without limiting the preceding sentence, Diversified may (i) seek to obtain through negotiation the right of Issuer to continue using the Platform; (ii) rework the Platform so as to make it non-infringing; or (iii) replace the Platform, as long as the reworked or replacement Platform does not result in a material adverse change in the “look and feel” or operational characteristics of the Platform. If none of these alternatives is reasonably available in Diversified’ sole discretion, Diversified may terminate this Agreement without financial penalty.
6.3.2. Exceptions. The foregoing warranty shall not apply to infringement caused by (i) Issuer’s modification or use of the Platform other than as contemplated by the Agreement; (ii) Issuer’s failure to use corrections or enhancements made available by Diversified to the extent that such corrections or enhancements would make the Platform non-infringing; or (iii) information, specification or materials provided by Issuer or third party acting for Issuer.
6.4. No Other Warranties. EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 6.1, 6.2, AND 6.3, THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING ANY MANUALS AND OTHER MATERIALS, AND THE SERVICES, ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR ANY WARRANTY THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION, OR THAT ISSUER WILL BE SUCCESS RAISING FUNDS THROUGH USE OF THE PLATFORM, OR THAT THE PLATFORM WILL OTHERWISE MEET ISSUER’S REQUIREMENTS OR COMPLY WITH SECURITIES LAWS. ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, OR OTHERWISE ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
7. Cooperation. The parties will work together to ensure that the Offering is conducted in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws. Without limiting the preceding sentence (i) the parties shall engage the services of a reputable third party provider to verify that each investor is an Accredited Investor, and (ii) the parties will cooperate and share materials and information, as reasonably requested, in order to perform their respective obligations.
8. Due Diligence. Diversified may at any time conduct a due diligence review of Issuer and Issuer’s principals, which may include, among other things, background checks under 17 CFR §230.506(d), requests for additional representations and warranties from Issuer and such other steps and procedures as Diversified may deem necessary or appropriate to allow Issuer to use, or to continue to use, the Platform and to conduct the Offering. Issuer shall cooperate with such due diligence review and shall cause its employees and agents to cooperate. If Diversified is dissatisfied with such review in its sole discretion, Diversified may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving written notice to Issuer.

10.2. Issuer’s Intellectual Property. Issuer is the exclusive owner of its name, logo(s), trademarks, URLs, and other intellectual property, provided that Diversified is hereby granted a nonexclusive, royalty-free licensed to use such intellectual property solely for purposes of this Agreement.

10.3. Data Collected on Platform. Diversified is the exclusive owner of all data that collected from the use and operation of the Platform, including but not limited to the names and other identifying information of registered users and the frequency and duration of visits.

11.1. In General. In consideration for the use of the Platform for the Offering, Issuer shall pay to Diversified a fixed amount each month in addition to variable transaction fees based on the legal requirements of the offering.

11.2. Reimbursement of Costs. Issuer shall reimburse Diversified for all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Diversified in the course of the Offering, including but not limited to KYC/AML fees, bank wire fees, ACH transfer fees, investor accreditation fees, and escrow charges, but not including the general overhead expenses of Diversified. If the Offering is completed, such costs may be paid from the proceeds of the Offering. If not, they shall be paid within ten (10) days following the termination of the Offering.
11.3. Compensation for Other Services. If Diversified and Issuer agree that Diversified will provide services beyond those described in this Agreement (for example, document preparation assistance, document review, technology training,, design and business consulting), they shall also agree on the additional compensation for such services to be paid by Issuer.

Any amount not paid within thirty (30) days of the due date shall bear a finance charge at the rate of 1½% per month. Under no circumstances may Issuer withhold any amount due hereunder or attempt to “setoff” any amounts due hereunder due to alleged liabilities of Diversified to Issuer or the failure of Diversified to perform its obligations hereunder. Diversified reserves the right to cease work without prejudice if amounts are not paid when due, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require Diversified to provide any products or services if Issuer is in default of its payment obligations under this Agreement. All payments shall be made in US dollars.
11.6. Taxes. The compensation set forth in this section is exclusive of all federal, state, municipal, or other government excise, sales, use, value-added, gross receipts, personal property, occupational, or other taxes now in force or enacted in the future, and Issuer shall pay any tax (excluding taxes on the net income of Diversified) that Diversified may be required to collect or pay now or at any time in the future with respect to the provision of services to Issuer. Issuer’s obligation to pay taxes shall include interest imposed by taxing authorities on uncollected taxes as well as penalties imposed by such taxing authorities to the extent applicable to taxes not paid at the request of Issuer or as a result of reliance by Diversified on representations of Issuer. If a certificate of exemption or similar document or proceeding is necessary in order to exempt a transaction from tax liability, Issuer shall obtain and pursue such certificate, document, or proceeding.

12.1. In General. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall begin on the date first written above and shall continue until terminated in accordance with this section 12.

12.6. Termination for Legal Reason. If either party receives a written opinion from qualified legal counsel concluding that there is a substantial risk that this Agreement will violate any Federal or State law or regulation, it shall promptly provide a copy of the opinion to the other party, which shall not constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege generally. For a period of thirty (30) days, the parties and their counsel will work in good faith to modify this Agreement in a manner to cause it to be permissible under applicable laws and regulations, while providing to both parties substantially all of the benefits they reasonable anticipated. If the parties are unable to modify this Agreement to their mutual satisfaction within such period, then either party may terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the other.
12.7. Result of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement the license granted pursuant to section 1 shall terminate and the securities of Issuer shall no longer be listed for sale on the Platform. The termination of this Agreement shall not affect the rights or obligations of the parties as in effect immediately before termination. Issuer shall not be entitled to any refund upon termination.
12.8 Suspension of Listing. If Diversified believes that (i) any of the materials concerning the Offering on the Platform are inaccurate in any material respect, (ii) Issuer is in breach of any of its representations or obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) Issuer is violating the Terms of Use for the Platform, then Diversified shall notify Issuer, explaining its belief in reasonable detail. If Issuer does not respond adequately to such notice within three (3) business days, then Diversified may suspend the listing of the Offering on the Platform and the performance of its own obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this paragraph, however, shall preclude Diversified from suspending the listing of the Offering on the Platform without notice to Issuer in the event Diversified reasonably believes that such suspension is necessary to protect Diversified or its other users.
