Notwithstanding the foregoing, invoices shall be issued in the event the Customer wishes to designate new Authorized Users beyond the number subscribed to in the Offer

Late Payment.

If the Customer fails to timely pay the Fees, Teech may, without limiting its rights and remedies: (a) suspend the Customer and its Authorized Users’ access to the Teech Business Services until the amounts owed are paid in full; (b) terminate the Agreement, or (c) accelerate the payment of the Fees such that all unpaid Fees shall be immediately payable; and (d) charge the Customer interest on the outstanding amount at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. Such suspension of the access to the Teech Business Services shall not release the Customer from its obligation to pay the Fees or extend the subscription period.

Currency and Taxes.

Fees are in US Dollars before taxes. They exclude sales tax, use tax, withholding tax, and VAT, where applicable. Any local taxes shall be collected by the Customer from the Student and there will be no such responsibility to pay such taxes on Teech.

Transactional Charges.

All charges of correspondent banks are at the parties’ own expense.

Refund.

Except as otherwise expressly stated in the Offer, all Fees paid to Teech are nonrefundable.

CONFIDENTIALITY.

Each party shall treat all Confidential Information received from the other party as strictly confidential, use it exclusively for the purpose of fulfilling its undertakings as set out in the Agreement, and shall not disclose any portion of it to any third party without obtaining the prior written permission of the disclosing party. The receiving party shall restrict access to Confidential Information and may only distribute it on a strictly need-to-know basis to affiliates, employees, consultants, subcontractors, or corporate officers who have entered into corresponding confidentiality obligations and need access to the Confidential Information for performing obligations under the Agreement. The party receiving Confidential Information shall not under any circumstances use a lesser degree of care in safeguarding the Confidential Information than it uses for its own confidential information, and upon discovery of any unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, it shall immediately notify the disclosing party and use its best efforts to prevent any further disclosure or unauthorized use thereof. In particular both parties shall not disclose pricing information to 3rd parties such as class prices agreed upon in the offer, private or group and other such terms. The foregoing shall not apply to any Confidential Information that: (a) is in the public domain at the time of disclosure or later becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the receiving party; (b) was known to the receiving party prior to disclosure by the disclosing party without obligation of confidentiality or is independently developed by the receiving party (without any use of Confidential Information), in each case as evidenced by the receiving party; (c) is disclosed to the receiving party by a third party who had the right to furnish such Confidential Information; (d) is required to be disclosed by operation of law or court order and is not protected by any claim of privilege, provided the receiving party attempts to notify the disclosing party prior to disclosure and any available governmental or judicial protection is obtained by the receiving party; or (e) is required to be disclosed under a party’s contract with a recognized stock exchange.
