With respect to each Service, the term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until the earlier of the Expiration Date, the completion of the Services by Service Provider as reasonably determined by Purchaser in good faith, or the date such Service is terminated pursuant to the terms of Section 3.02 (each, a “Service Period”).

Section 3.02 Termination.

If Recipient does not withdraw such Termination Notice within such time period, termination of such Services will be final, including with respect to the termination of any other Service or Services identified by Service Provider as an Early Termination Consequence. Recipient shall not have the right to reinstitute any Service once such Service has been terminated for any reason.

(b) With respect to any Service(s), at any time following Service Provider’s good faith determination that Service Provider has completed such Service(s) in accordance with the corresponding Objective Standard of Completion set forth in the Transition Services Schedule, Service Provider may notify Recipient in writing of the completion of such Service (a “Completion Notice”).

(c) Service Provider may terminate this Agreement (with respect to all or with respect to any one or more of the Services) immediately upon written notice of termination to Recipient if Recipient breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 45 days after a written notice is delivered by Service Provider to Recipient.

(d) This Agreement will automatically terminate without any further action by either Party on the earlier of: (i) the Expiration Date or (ii) the date of termination or expiration of all Service Periods.

Section 3.03 Effect of Termination. Upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, all rights, obligations and liabilities of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate and become void, except that the following provisions shall survive such termination or expiration: this Section 3.03, ARTICLE I, ARTICLE VI, ARTICLE VIII, ARTICLE IX, ARTICLE XII, and ARTICLE XIII and any other definitions set forth in this Agreement necessary to interpret any of the foregoing provisions

In connection with the provision of a Service by Service Provider, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Recipient agrees to pay to Service Provider amounts as set forth on the Transition Services Schedule for such Services that are performed by Service Provider (the “Service Fees”).

Section 4.02 Taxes. To the extent that any sales Taxes or other similar Taxes are applicable to any of the Service Fees (the “Service Provider Sales Tax”), Service Provider is liable to account for and remit such Service Provider Sales Taxes to the relevant Tax Authorities according to applicable Law. Service Provider can charge such Service Provider Sales Taxes (the “Tax Amount”) to Recipient and Recipient will pay Service Provider such amount in addition to the Service Fees paid pursuant to Section 4.01 upon receipt of any documentation as may be requested by Recipient to assist it in substantiating or recovering such Service Provider Sales Taxes. In the event that applicable Laws require that any portion of a Tax Amount be withheld from any payment by Recipient under this Agreement, then the sum payable by the Recipient shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that after the making of that deduction or withholding of the Service Provider Sales Tax, the Service Provider receives a net amount equal to the amount that the Service Provider would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. For the avoidance of doubt, the Recipient has no obligation to reimburse the Service Provider for, or increase the sum payable to the Service Provider in respect of, any Taxes imposed on or measured by income or similar Taxes.

Section 4.03 Invoices. In each month during the Term, Service Provider shall deliver to Recipient an invoice on the first day of such month and the 15^th day of such month (or if not on a Business Day, then the first Business Day immediately preceding such day) (each invoice for the period of time commencing on the day of such invoice and continuing until the day of the next invoice, a “Billing Period”) for the Services to be performed by Service Provider in such Billing Period (each, an “Invoice”); provided that no Invoice shall be for an amount in excess of one half (1/2) of the maximum monthly amount of the Service Fee set forth on the Transition Services Schedule. Such Invoice shall set forth (a) a description of the Services to be performed by Service Provider during such Billing Period, (b) an itemized calculation of the Service Fees for each of the Services to be performed by Service Provider during such Billing Period, (c) an itemized calculation of the Tax Amounts in respect of such Services, and (d) payment instructions, including all wire transfer information, for the payment of such Service Fees and Tax Amounts.

Section 4.04 Payment. All amounts required to be paid by Recipient under this Agreement shall be due in cash within 10 days of Recipient’s receipt of the applicable Invoice (the “Payment Due Date”). Payment shall be deemed made on the date Recipient’s wire transfer is received by Service Provider.

Section 4.05 Right to Suspend Services. If payment in full of any Invoice is not received by Service Provider from Recipient on or prior to the applicable Payment Due Date, in addition to all other rights of Service Provider hereunder, Service Provider shall have the right, after giving 10 days’ prior written notice thereof to Recipient, to suspend all or any portion of the Services until such time as Recipient has paid in full all amounts then due, including any accrued interest. After such payment in full is received and as long as Recipient continues to perform hereunder, Service Provider shall promptly resume providing, or causing to be provided, the Services to Recipient until the Expiration Date, subject to earlier termination thereof in accordance with ARTICLE III.

Section 4.06 Audit Right. Service Provider shall keep and maintain all books and records relating to the Services. At any time during the term of this Agreement and for one year thereafter, Recipient shall have the right, at Recipient’s expense, to audit, examine and make copies of or extracts from the books and records of Service Provider (the “Audit Right”), to the extent necessary to verify the performance by Service Provider of the Services and its obligations under this Agreement. Recipient may exercise the Audit Right through such auditors (or other Representatives) as it may determine in its sole discretion. Recipient shall (a) exercise the Audit Right only upon reasonable written notice to Service Provider and during normal business hours and (b) use its reasonable efforts to conduct the Audit Right in such a manner as to minimize the inconvenience and disruption to Service Provider.
