(Hotel Coupons requires that all coupons be available for consumer use and be honored during the full distribution period for each applicable Guide or other distribution medium). Client may change the text of any Advertising at no cost, no more than once per publication “run”.
  4. Hotel Coupons may also offer various products, services and/or other solutions that are provided by third parties and interoperate with one or more Ordered Products/Services hereunder (collectively, “Third-Party Products”), and Client agrees as follows with respect to any such Third-Party Products:
    1. Any use by Client of any Third-Party Products and any related implementation, customization and other consulting services, and any exchange of data between Client and any provider of such Third-Party Products, is solely between Client and the applicable third-party provider.

    3. During the Term hereof, Client shall not contract directly with any provider of Third-Party Products for any products or services that are the same as or similar to the Covered Products/Services provided by Hotel Coupons to Client under this Agreement.

FEES.

  1. For each Ordered Product/Service, Client shall pay Hotel Coupons all fees designated in the Advertising Agreement for that product or service, as the same may be hereafter modified, which may include one-time “upfront fees” or set-up fees and costs (including, but not limited to, applicable travel costs) and/or recurring “monthly fees” (collectively, the “Fees”).
  2. All Fees are exclusive of federal, state and local excise, sales, use and other taxes now or hereafter levied or imposed for the provision of Ordered Products/Services, and Client shall be solely liable for and shall pay all such taxes (except for any such taxes based on the net income of Hotel Coupons), regardless of whether included on any invoice.
  3. Except to the extent that any such fees are payable in advance, Hotel Coupons will invoice Client for all Fees on a periodic basis (which will be monthly in most cases), and all invoices are due upon receipt. If any Ordered Products/Services are provided on a bundled basis, Hotel Coupons will begin invoicing for those Ordered Products/Services when the first of those bundled Ordered Products/Services is deployed/activated. With respect to any Ordered Product/Service that requires customization or Client input (e.g., Client Websites, etc.), the parties expect the customization and/or activation to be completed by the beginning of the corresponding Contract Period, but if the customization and/or activation is delayed through no fault of Hotel Coupons, Hotel Coupons may begin invoicing for those services not later than the first day of such corresponding Contract Period.
  4. Any invoice that remains unpaid thirty (30) days after the original invoice date shall be subject to interest on any outstanding balance at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) 1.5% per month or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. If any outstanding Fees remain unpaid for thirty (30) (or more) days from the original invoice date, Hotel Coupons may, without limiting any of its rights and remedies, suspend the provision of the Ordered Products/Services in respect of which payment has not been received plus any or all other Ordered Products/Services. The foregoing rights and remedies of Hotel Coupons shall not apply to any invoice, or portion thereof, that is then subject to a good faith dispute between the parties, provided that all other invoices (or portions thereof) not in dispute have been paid by Client in full. All returned checks will incur a charge of $25 per incident on the account. If Ordered Products/Services are suspended for nonpayment and all outstanding payments are received within 120 days of suspension date customers Ordered Products/Services may be reinstated under the terms of this agreement.
  5. Hotel Coupons may modify any monthly Fees payable under this Agreement by giving Client at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice from time to time. Any such Fee modification shall not require an affirmative response by Client or any further action by the parties; provided, however, if any such Fee modification will result in an increase in the Fees that are payable in respect of an Ordered Product/Service, then, for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of notice of the increase, Client may cancel the applicable Ordered Product/Service by giving Hotel Coupons written notice of cancellation. If Client does not timely cancel the applicable Ordered Product/Service, then such Fee increase shall be effective (and binding on Client) as of the date specified in Hotel Coupon’s initial notice thereof.

TERM AND TERMINATION.

  1. This Agreement shall commence on the date that the initial Advertising Agreement is signed by an authorized Manager of Hotel Coupons and shall remain in effect until terminated in accordance with this Agreement (the period that this Agreement is so in effect, the “Term”).
  2. Each Advertising Agreement specifies an initial term/contract period (defined above as the Contract Period) for each Ordered Product/Service. After the initial Contract Period for any Ordered Product/Service expires, the Contract Period for such Ordered Product/Service shall, except as provided below, automatically renew for successive terms that are equal in length to the initial Contract Period, unless a party gives the other party written notice of its intent not to renew this Agreement for the applicable Ordered Products/Services not less than (i) ninety (90) days prior to the applicable renewal date, with respect to Ordered Products/Services that consist of print Advertising services, or (ii) sixty (60) days prior to the applicable renewal date, with respect to all other Ordered Products/Services, in which case this Agreement shall terminate effective as of the last day of the calendar month following the expiration of the applicable notice period (for instance, if notice of non-renewal for Ordered Products/Services consisting of print Advertising services is delivered on March 24, the effective date of termination would be June 30).
  3. The cancellation of one Contract Period shall not, in and of itself, cause the cancellation of any other Contract Period unless the cancellation is effected as a result of a breach and the non-breaching party expressly elects, in its sole discretion, to exercise its termination right under Section 9(d). This Agreement shall automatically terminate if for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days there is no Contract Period in effect for the provision of any Ordered Product/Service (e.g., all renewals have been cancelled).
  4. Client, on the one hand, or Hotel Coupons, on the other hand, may terminate this Agreement at any time by written notice to the other party if (i) the other party materially breaches this Agreement and the breach remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after notice of breach from the non-breaching party, or (ii) the other party ceases to do business in the normal course, a petition for relief under any bankruptcy legislation is filed by or against the other party, the other party makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a receiver is appointed for all or substantially all of the other party’s assets. In addition to and not in limitation of the foregoing, Hotel Coupons may terminate this Agreement (including any and all active Advertising Agreements) immediately upon written notice to Client in the event that Client, or any of its employees, agents or other representatives, engages in any conduct that Hotel Coupons in its reasonable discretion deems offensive, inappropriate or otherwise inconsistent with Hotel Coupon’s standards of conduct, including, but not limited to, use of abusive, insulting or derogatory language with any Hotel Coupons personnel.
  5. Following termination of this Agreement for any reason, all rights and licenses granted herein shall terminate and Client shall immediately cease use of all Ordered Products/Services (including by discontinuing use of all Hotel Coupons Proprietary Materials) and certify to Hotel Coupons that it has destroyed all copies of all applicable Hotel Coupons Proprietary Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination of this Agreement shall not limit either party from pursuing any remedies available to it at the time of or in connection with such termination, nor shall such termination release Client from its obligation to satisfy all payment obligations under this Agreement. Sections 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9(e), 10 and 11 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

The parties hereby expressly (i) agree that their respective rights and obligations shall be determined by the terms of this Agreement and (ii) waive and opt out of any application of the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, or any version thereof, adopted in any State in any form to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the state of Florida (subject to clause (ii) in the preceding sentence), without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each party irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any local, state or federal court that is located in Broward county, FL in connection with any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and waives any objections in the nature of jurisdiction or venue. In any action or other proceeding by which Client’s account is referred to an attorney or collection agency for collection, Client will pay for all collection fees, costs and expenses incurred by Hotel Coupons in connection therewith. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

  6. Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, a party’s remedies set forth herein are not exclusive and are in addition to any and all other remedies available at law or in equity, none of which shall be deemed as waived by virtue of a party’s exercise of any other remedy.

  7. Amendment; Assignment; Continuing Obligation. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein (such as, by way of example, in the case of Fee increases by Hotel Coupons), this Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified except by a writing signed by both parties.
