For the avoidance of doubt, Sections 3.1 and 3.2 below will be of no effect when the Customer purchases a Subscription through a Reseller, as payment and taxes will be addressed in the agreement between the Reseller and Customer.
3 PAYMENT AND TAXES
3.1 Payment. Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. will invoice Customer for the fees due under each Order Form or otherwise under this Agreement, and Customer will pay such fees within thirty (30) days after receipt of an applicable invoice. All invoices will be paid in the currency set forth on the applicable Order Form. Payments will be made without the right of set-off or chargeback. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any and all payments made by Customer pursuant to this Agreement or any Order Form are non-refundable, and all commitments to make any payments hereunder or under any Order Form are non-cancellable.
3.2 Taxes. All fees stated on an Order Form are exclusive of any applicable sales, use, value-added, and excise taxes levied upon the delivery or use of the taxable components, if any, of the Subscription purchased by Customer under this Agreement (collectively, “Taxes”). Taxes do not include any taxes on the net income of Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. or any of its Affiliates. Unless Customer provides Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. a valid state sales/use/excise tax exemption certificate or Direct Pay Permit, and provided that Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. separately states any such taxes in the applicable invoice, Customer will pay and be solely responsible for all Taxes. If Customer is required by any foreign governmental authority to deduct or withhold any portion of the amount invoiced for the delivery or use of Product and/or Support Services under this Agreement, Customer shall increase the sum paid to Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. by the amount necessary for the total payment to Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. equal to the amount originally invoiced.

4.5 Disclosure Required by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each party may disclose the other party’s Confidential Information in order to comply with applicable law and/or an order from a court or other governmental body of competent jurisdiction and, in connection with compliance with such an order only, if such party: (i) unless prohibited by law, gives the other party prior written notice to such disclosure if the time between that order and such disclosure reasonably permits or, if time does not permit, gives the other party written notice of such disclosure promptly after complying with that order and (ii) fully cooperates with the other party, at the other party’s cost and expense, in seeking a protective order, or confidential treatment, or taking other measures to oppose or limit such disclosure.

(d) Equitable Relief. A breach or threatened breach by either party of Section 4 may cause irreparable harm for which damages at law may not provide adequate relief, and therefore, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief without being required to post a bond.

9.13 Notices. Any notice or other communication under this Agreement given by either party to the other will be deemed to be properly given if given in writing and delivered in person or by e-mail, if acknowledged, received by return e-mail, or followed within one day by a delivered or mailed copy of such notice, or if mailed, properly addressed and stamped with the required postage, to the intended recipient at its address specified on the Order Form.

Each party shall be solely responsible for the supervision, direction, control, and payment of its personnel, including, without limitation, for taxes, deductions and withholdings, compensation and benefits, and nothing herein will be deemed to result in either party having an employer-employee relationship with the personnel of the other party.
9.16 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect, and such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible so as to give effect the intent of the parties and will be reformed to the extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.
9.17 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with any Order Forms executed by the parties, and the Support Services Policy, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by this reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and it supersedes and its terms govern, all prior proposals, agreements, or other communications between the parties, oral or written, regarding such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of any of the foregoing documents, the conflict shall be resolved based on the following order of precedence: (i) an applicable Order Form (but only for the transaction thereunder), (ii) an applicable Addendum (including any exhibits, attachments, and addenda thereto), (iii) this Agreement, and (iv) the Support Services Policy. To avoid doubt, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree that if Customer issues any purchase orders or similar documents in connection with its purchase of the Subscription, it shall do so only for its own internal administrative purposes and not with the intent to provide any contractual terms. By entering into this Agreement, whether prior to or following receipt of Customer’s purchase order or any similar document, the parties are hereby expressly showing their intention not to be contractually bound by the contents of any such purchase order or similar document, which are hereby deemed rejected and extraneous to this Agreement, and Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co.’s performance of this Agreement shall not amount to (a) an acceptance by conduct of any terms set out or referred to in the purchase order or similar document; (b) an amendment of this Agreement, nor (c) an agreement to amend this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be modified except by a subsequently dated, written amendment that expressly amends this Agreement and which is signed on behalf of Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. and Customer by their duly authorized representatives. The parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement result from mutual negotiations. Therefore, the rule of construction that any ambiguity shall apply against the drafter is not applicable and will not apply to this Agreement. Any ambiguity shall be reasonably construed as to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against one party, regardless of who authored the ambiguous language.

This Section shall survive for a period of one (1) year from the termination or expiration of the Agreement.

2.2 Third Party Contractors. If designated by Customer as support contact(s), Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. will provide the Support Services to one or more Contractors, solely in connection with such Contractors’ provision of services to Customer, and provided that (i) such Contractors do not offer Software as part of any software-as-a-service, (ii) Customer shall remain responsible to Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co. for the compliance of such Contractors with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Addendum, and (iii) such Contractors are contractually bound to obligations that reasonably protect Chipmunk Robotics Limited Liability Co.’s intellectual property and Confidential Information.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing internal use restriction is not intended to prohibit Customer from using the Support Services for a Project in which Software is used in connection with or as part of a Customer website or Customer’s own software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) offering, provided that any such SaaS offering must include substantial, additional value-added software application features and functions, in addition to the features and functions of the Software.
