Credit Balances on Closed Accounts:
If a Service Client whose account for Service has been closed has a credit balance owing, LENDIVATE will transfer the credit balance to another account of the Service Client, if there is one, or will mail a check for the credit balance owed to the Service Client if LENDIVATE believes it has a valid and current address for the Service Client. If LENDIVATE is not certain it has a valid and current address for the Service Client, it will include a notice in the final invoice mailed to the Service Client’s last known address according to LENDIVATE’s records, asking that the Service Client verify the address so LENDIVATE can mail a check for the credit balance owing, or it will write to the Service Client at that address and request Service Client verification of the address. Verification may be achieved by a Service Client calling a designated telephone number or writing to a specified address. Upon receiving verification, a check for the credit balance owing will be mailed to Service Client. If the final invoice or the notification letter is returned to LENDIVATE by the post office as undeliverable, or if no Service Client response is received within thirty (30) days of the mailing of the final invoice or the notification letter, LENDIVATE may apply a closed account maintenance charge of $5.00 per month beginning in the second monthly billing period following the month in which the account was closed. This charge will apply until either the Service Client requests a refund in writing or the credit balance owed is exhausted.5.5. Recovery of Collection Costs:
Unless otherwise prohibited by law, Service Client shall reimburse LENDIVATE for any costs incurred by LENDIVATE in undertaking any collection activity, including, but not limited to, the reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees.

stop work and cease providing Services, by giving written notice to Service Client, until all outstanding amounts due to LENDIVATE hereunder and/or pursuant to the Agreement have been paid in full to LENDIVATE.Further, the Agreement may be terminated immediately by one party in the event that the other party shall have:
(i) Ceased to do business as a going concern,
(ii) Made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
(iii) Filed or had filed against it a petition seeking the reorganization, arrangement, composition, adjustment, liquidation, or dissolution of such party or seeking similar relief under any other statute, law, or regulation, or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, assignee, liquidator, or similar officer of the court for a substantial part of its properties; provided, however, that either party shall have a sixty (60) day cure period for any involuntary petitions in bankruptcy.6.2. Consequences of Termination:
Termination of the Agreement in accordance with the foregoing provisions will not affect:
(i) The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to invoices issued by LENDIVATE prior to the effective date of the termination,
(ii) The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to intellectual property rights, confidentiality, indemnification, non-competition, non-circumvention, non-solicitation, and governing law of the parties as set forth herein, or
(iii) Terminate liabilities arising out of conduct prior to the actual date of termination.Otherwise, all rights and obligations of the parties shall cease to exist upon termination of the Agreement. In the event any amount due from Service Client to LENDIVATE remains unpaid upon termination of the Agreement, Service Client irrevocably authorizes LENDIVATE to sell any and all goods of the Service Client in possession of LENDIVATE and in all other property of Service Client in LENDIVATE’s possession anywhere in the world, by any and all methods, manners, and media, including, without limitation, by digital marketing and internet sales. Service Client acknowledges and agrees that LENDIVATE and/or LENDIVATE’s affiliates or representatives may sell such goods and property of the Service Client in accordance with terms and conditions as LENDIVATE determines from time to time in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, purchase price, payment terms, and/or shipping terms. LENDIVATE is irrevocably authorized to bill, invoice, and collect all sales proceeds from the sale of such goods and property of the Service Client by LENDIVATE, its affiliates, and representatives. Upon satisfying any and all amounts due and owed to LENDIVATE by Service Client, including costs and expenses incurred in selling such goods and property and collecting upon such sales, LENDIVATE shall pay the excess proceeds, if any, to Service Client.6.3. Termination Not Exclusive Remedy:
Any remedy provided to LENDIVATE shall not be construed to be an exclusive remedy and shall not deprive LENDIVATE of its ability to pursue other available remedies. The parties agree that LENDIVATE’s damages in the event of Service cancellation or termination would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and, therefore, any early cancellation or termination charges invoiced to Service Client by LENDIVATE are intended to serve as liquidated damages rather than penalties.
7.1. Export Regulations:
Service Client acknowledges that certain Services sold by LENDIVATE hereunder and any documentation and other technology of LENDIVATE may be subject to application export control and sanction laws, regulations, and orders. Service Client certifies, represents, and warrants that it is in compliance and shall take all necessary acts to remain in compliance with all applicable export and re-export control laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the Export Administration Regulations maintained by the U.S. Department of Commerce, trade and economic sanctions and regulations maintained by OFAC (defined below), and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations maintained by the U.S. Department of State. Service Client hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold LENDIVATE harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, risks, liabilities, and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or related to any breach of the foregoing certification.7.2. FCPA; Anti-Bribery:
In carrying out its responsibilities hereunder and under any Agreement, Service Client shall comply with all applicable anti-bribery laws including, but not limited to, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, as revised (“FCPA”), and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Anti-Bribery Convention, as implemented in the Territory. Service Client understands that the FCPA generally prohibits the promise, payment, or giving of anything of value either directly or indirectly to any government official for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or any improper advantage. For purposes of this section, “government official” means any official, officer, representative, or employee of any non-U.S. government department, agency, or instrumentality (including any government-owned or controlled commercial enterprise), or any official of a public international organization or political party or candidate for political office. Service Client represents and warrants that, in the performance of this Agreement and in connection with its purchase of Services:
(i) Neither it nor any of its representatives are governmental employees or officials or candidates for political office and Service Client will advise LENDIVATE of any change in such representation;
(ii) Service Client and its representatives have not and will not make, offer, or agree to offer anything of value to any government official, political party, or candidate for office;
(iii) Service Client will comply with all provisions of the FCPA and the regulations thereunder as amended from time to time; and
(iv) Service Client agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold LENDIVATE harmless for damages and expenses resulting from a violation of the foregoing by Service Client or its representatives.7.3. OFAC:
Pursuant to United States Presidential Executive Order 13224 (“Executive Order”), Service Client may be required to ensure that it does not transact business with persons or entities determined to have committed, or to pose a risk of committing or supporting, terrorist acts and those identified on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (“List”) generated by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. The names or aliases of these persons or entities (“Blocked Persons”) are updated from time to time. Service Client certifies, represents, and warrants to LENDIVATE that:
(a) It is not acting, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of any person, group, entity, or nation named by any Executive Order of the United States Treasury Department as a terrorist, “Specially Designated National and Blocked Person” or any other banned or blocked person, entity, nation, or transaction pursuant to any Law that is enforced or administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control; and
(b) It is not engaged in this transaction, directly or indirectly, on behalf of, or instigating or facilitating this transaction, directly or indirectly, on behalf of, any such person, group, entity, or nation. Service Client hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold LENDIVATE harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, risks, liabilities, and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or related to any breach of the foregoing certification.7.4. Relationship among LENDIVATE, Service Client, and Third Parties:
Neither party nor any other agents or employees, officers, directors, managers, shareholders, or members of such party shall be deemed a representative or agent of the other, nor shall either party hold itself out as a representative or agent of the other beyond the scope of the Agreement and/or these Terms and Conditions, and neither party shall have any right or authority to conduct any business in the name of, or for the account of or on behalf of the other party. The parties hereto agree and understand that, solely with respect to the Agreement and/or these Terms and Conditions, LENDIVATE will be and act as an independent contractor of Service Client. Service Client and LENDIVATE are separate entities and that there is no master/servant, partnership, joint venture, principal/agent, or employer/employee relationship between the parties.7.5. Severability:
Should any part, portion, or provision of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Agreement be held invalid, illegal, void, or unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Agreement or the application of such provision shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.7.6. Choice of Law and Venue:
The Agreement and these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Miami applicable to contracts made and wholly performed in such state without regard to choice or conflicts of law principles. The Agreement and these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to have been entered into at Florida, Miami, U.S.A., regardless of the place or places of signing by the parties hereto or the order of their signing. Service Client hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Miami State Court or Federal Court sitting in Miami-Dade County, Miami, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement and/or these Terms and Conditions. Service Client agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.7.7. Non-exclusive Dealing:
The Agreement is non-exclusive. Nothing shall prevent LENDIVATE from entering into similar arrangements with, or otherwise providing Services to, any other person or entity.7.8. No Waiver:
No waiver of any of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Agreement shall be binding unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of either party to insist on the strict enforcement of any provision of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of the provision, and all terms and conditions herein and/or therein shall remain in full force and effect.7.9. Amendments:
Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement or in these Terms and Conditions, no modifications, additions, or amendments to the Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing as an addendum to the Agreement and signed by duly authorized representatives of both parties.7.10. Assignment:

The Agreement, together with these Terms and Conditions, will only inure to the benefit of the parties to the Agreement and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and, except as expressly set forth in the Agreement and/or these Terms and Conditions, there are no third-party beneficiaries to the Agreement or these Terms and Conditions.7.11.
