   Microsoft may modify a Product or release a new version of a Product at any time and for any reason including, but not limited to, to address customer needs or otherwise address competitive demands, to respond to a government regulation, order, or law, or to advance innovation in its Product offerings.

8. A NOTE ON CANCELLATION

   For all Products, Client will have thirty (30) days after a cancellation to migrate any Client Data to either a new Subscription with Insight, with Microsoft directly, or some other service. The Client shall be responsible for any migration process including any associated costs.

9. FINANCIAL TERMS FOR ALL PRODUCTS

   Fees.

   1. Product Fees. Subject to subsection paragraph (c) below (Changes in Usage), as consideration for the Products purchased by Client under this Agreement, Client shall pay Insight the Fees, which will be calculated from the applicable pricing rate for the Products and the Usage Commitment. For price increases and decreases resulting from a change in the market price of the Product, Insight will update the price for the affected Products in the Portal from time to time.
   2. Pricing Rates. For the Initial Term and unless otherwise provided, the pricing rates for the Products ordered under this Agreement shall be (i) derived from the Order Form (if applicable); (ii) in a quote provided by Insight; or (iii) based upon the Standard Rate. For any Renewal Term, the pricing rates shall be the Standard Rate for such Products based upon the applicable Usage Commitment at commencement of the then-current Renewal Term, unless otherwise agreed upon by Insight in writing. Insight’s prices for Products are available at the Portal, or through any other process designated by Insight. Insight may change the price lists by publishing an updated price list to the Portal from time to time. Insight may provide notice of price list changes by either electronic or physical mail.
   3. Changes in Usage. By accepting this Agreement, receiving access to or using the Products, the parties agree that all future quantities used, enabled or consumed for existing purchased Products will be invoiced on an actual use basis, including without limitation, any increases.

   Invoicing.

   Charges for the Products will accrue on the date when, depending on the nature of the Products, the Products are activated or made available by Microsoft to Client. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Fees are non-refundable. Insight will invoice Client the Fees in accordance with this Agreement.

   Payment Terms.

   Client must pay all undisputed invoices in full within 30 days of the invoice date. All payment terms are measured from the date of invoice and are payable in the currency specified on the invoice. If an invoice is the subject of a bona fide dispute, Client shall notify Insight in writing, including a description of the nature of such dispute in sufficient detail, within such 30-day period. Failure to comply with the requirements of this provision shall preclude the Client's right to dispute such invoice. All payments must reference the invoice number. Insight reserves the right to charge interest of 1.5% per month or the maximum allowable by applicable law, whichever is less, for any undisputed past due Fees. Client is responsible for all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, for any payment default on undisputed Fees. In addition, Insight may hold all pending orders, suspend further shipments, or delay Client’s access to Products under any agreement between Client and Insight without liability thereunder until Insight receives all payments due under this Agreement. If Insight chooses to take any of these actions, it does not waive any other right or remedy it may possess. Client may not withhold payment or take deductions from any invoice amount (by offset, counterclaim, or otherwise) before Insight issues a credit. This includes returns, rebates, price adjustments, billing errors, shipping claims, handling fees, allowances, remittance costs and other charges.

   Taxes.

   All amounts the Client must pay under this Agreement do not include any taxes. Client must pay taxes imposed on or with respect to its activities in connection with this Agreement, if any, and Insight and or Microsoft will have no responsibility for the payments. Client must pay or reimburse Insight for all taxes which are permitted to be collected by Insight under applicable law. Client may provide a valid exemption certificate in which case Client will not be charged the taxes covered by such certificate, and further Insight and or Microsoft will be under no obligation to apply credits for any periods for which Client had not timely submitted a valid exemption certificate. If Client is located in a jurisdiction that utilizes the VAT numbers for tax identification purpose, it will provide Insight with its VAT number together with its address details.

   If income taxes are required to be withheld by any government on payments to Microsoft or Insight, Client may deduct such taxes from the amount owed and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority; provided however, that Client promptly secures and delivers an official receipt for those withholdings and other documents reasonably requested to claim a foreign tax credit or refund. Client will ensure that any taxes withheld are minimized to the extent possible under applicable law. Client remains obligated to pay Insight for the amount of tax withheld until Client provides to Insight the official receipt and other documents reasonably requested.

   The withholding taxes referred to in this section apply to withholding taxes required by the taxing authorities on payments to Insight only and do not include any withholding taxes suffered by Client for payments made to Client by its customers. Those withholding taxes will be Client’s financial responsibility.

   This “Taxes” section shall govern the treatment of all taxes arising as a result of or in connection with this Agreement notwithstanding any other section or any other document included in this Agreement.

   Product Credits.

   In the event that a credit for the Products is due to Client in accordance with the Vendor Terms, the parties agree that any credit due will be credited by Insight to Client’s account within a reasonable time after Insight’s receipt the corresponding credit amount from Microsoft following Microsoft’s verification of Client's claim. Client expressly acknowledges and agrees that Insight is not obligated to provide any Product credit if Microsoft is unable to verify, or otherwise rejects, Client’s claim for any reason or if Microsoft fails to provide the Products credit for any reason even if it has verified Client’s claim. ANY CREDITS OR TERMINATION RIGHTS DESCRIBED UNDER MICROSOFT’S SLAs SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF CLIENT IN CONNECTION WITH ANY UNAVAILABILITY OF THE PRODUCTS OR BREACH OF SUCH SLAs.

10. SUPPORT.

    Insight’s support offering is Cloud Care. Insight will provide the Client with support for the term of this Agreement in accordance with Exhibit C below (excluding EMEA Clients with legacy Cloud Care Lite, Cloud Care Essentials or Cloud Care Advanced offerings, where Insight shall provide Clients with the applicable Service Description until the next anniversary date of the Client’s Cloud Care Agreement, at which point Exhibit C shall apply upon renewal). Insight’s technical support and the Client’s requests for support shall be in the English language only. The Client shall also provide support for data integration tools and processes developed or maintained by the Client in order to connect the Products to the Client's other software and databases.

15. LIMITATIONS ON AND EXCLUSIONS OF DAMAGES.
    1. Limitation. UNLESS APPLICABLE LAW REQUIRES OTHERWISE, THE ONLY REMEDY THAT EITHER PARTY WILL HAVE FOR ANYTHING RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT IS TO OBTAIN DIRECT DAMAGES FROM THE LIABLE PARTY UP TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID OR PAYABLE BY CLIENT TO INSIGHT DURING THE PRIOR ONE-YEAR PERIOD, MINUS ANY AMOUNTS PAID BY THE LIABLE PARTY DURING THAT SAME PERIOD FOR ANY PRIOR LIABILITY. NEITHER PARTY CAN RECOVER ANY OTHER DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER, INCLUDING LOSS OF REVENUE OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF DATA, LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, EVEN IF THE PARTY KNEW THEY WERE POSSIBLE. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION APPLY TO: (I) ANYTHING RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS; AND (II) CLAIMS FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. IT ALSO APPLIES EVEN IF CLIENT IS NOT FULLY COMPENSATED FOR ANY LOSSES, OR INSIGHT KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES.
       
       THE LIMITATIONS DO NOT APPLY TO (i) CLAIMS FOR NON-PAYMENT, FRAUD, BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, (ii) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, AND (iii) any loss, liability, OR damage arising directly or indirectly out of Client’s breach of, or Client’s use of the Products under, THE MCA. EACH PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE) IS REDUCED TO THE EXTENT THAT THE OTHER’S AGENTS CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THAT LOSS OR DAMAGE.
    2. When These Exclusions May Not Apply. The provisions of any local law which implies terms into this Agreement will not apply to the extent that local law permits the parties to contract out of the law. However, the limitations and exclusions in this Agreement do not change Client’s rights if the laws of its state, province or country do not allow. For example, the limitations on liability may not apply to Client if applicable law does not allow it.
       
       If applicable law gives Client any implied terms, despite the exclusions and limitations in this Agreement, then to the extent permitted by applicable law, Client’s remedies are limited to repair or replacement of the Product and if Microsoft cannot repair or replace the Product, Insight will refund the amount Client paid for it.

    3. Unsolicited Commercial Email. Neither party may use the other party's Marks in connection with the transmission or distribution of unsolicited commercial email.

    7. No Representations. Insight has not made any representation to Client about any Products other than as specifically stated in this Agreement. Client has relied on its own skill and judgment (or that of its advisers) in deciding to enter into this Agreement. However, neither party limits nor excludes liability for fraudulent misrepresentations.
    8. Services Supply in New Zealand Client agrees that if Services are supplied to Client in New Zealand (i) the Services are supplied for the purpose of a business and that the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (NZ) does not apply; and (ii) sections 9, 12A and 13 of the Fair Trading Act 1986 do not apply to the Services. Client acknowledges and agrees that it acquires the Services in trade as defined in the Fair Trading Act 1986, and that it is fair and reasonable to be bound by this clause.
    9. Applicable Law; Attorneys’ Fees. The law governing this Agreement will depend on where You are located and Your Insight contracting party as follows:
       • If You procure Products in the United States, then this Agreement is governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona. The Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in courts sitting in Maricopa County, Arizona.
       • If You procure Products in Canada, then this Agreement is governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario.
       • If You procure Products in Europe with the exception of Italy, then this Agreement is governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the country where Insight is located.
       • If You procure the Products in Italy, then this Agreement is governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Italy and the parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Milan for the resolution of any disputes between them.
       • If You procure Products in APAC, then this Agreement is governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the country set forth here:
         • If You procure Products in Australia, then the law of NSW shall apply;
         • If You procure Products in New Zealand or Singapore, then the laws of those respective countries shall apply;
         • If You procure Products in Hong Kong, then the laws of Hong Kong shall apply; and
         • If You procure Products in any other APAC region not listed here, the laws of the country where Insight is located shall apply.
       
       If either Party begins litigation in connection with this Agreement, the substantially prevailing Party will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and other expenses. The 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not govern this Agreement. This choice of jurisdiction and venue does not prevent either Party from seeking injunctive relief for violation of intellectual property rights; breach of confidentiality obligations; or enforcement or recognition of any award or order in any appropriate jurisdiction.
       
       If You procure the Products in Italy, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been negotiated between them before being finalized and therefore the articles 1341 and 1342 of the Italian Civil Code do not apply.

Service Level Objectives

Ticket Management and Prioritization Process

Insight will use the following process to manage tickets:

1. Insight’s Service Desk shall receive an incoming request for support via the provided phone number, ticketing system, or email (as applicable), and will log any further information into the ticketing system as required. For Incidents which are determined by the Client as high priority (Priority 1 or Priority 2), the Client must always notify Insight by telephone.
2. Client shall be directed, as appropriate, to a technical specialist who will coordinate Client request, problem determination, attempt resolution, perform incident analysis, track calls to closure.
3. An Insight support representative will assign a priority level to each reported request or problem based upon information provided by Client using https://www.insight.com/en_US/help/managed-services-service-levels-and-requests.html as a guide. A Priority 1 incident requires a Client representative available 24x7 to work with Insight resources to resolve (if not provided then Insight may downgrade the Priority).
4. Incident information will be updated in the Insight ticketing system and available on-line via the self-service portal.

Incident Management Service Level Objectives

Insight’s Incident Management Service Level Objectives are detailed at https://www.insight.com/en_US/help/managed-services-service-levels-and-requests.html

Incidents designated by Insight as being Priority 1 & Priority 2 Incidents will be supported 24x7. All other incidents or requests will only be supported during Normal Business Hours.

Request Management Service Level Objectives

Microsoft Escalation

Insight escalates issues through our support tiers as necessary and maintains a Premier Support Agreement with Microsoft for issues which are deemed by Insight as requiring Microsoft escalation. When escalating to Microsoft, Insight adheres to Microsoft’s severity levels. Severity levels are assigned to a case when it is opened, based on an assessment of the issue type and customer impact. Issue resolution times may be dependent on Microsoft. Please refer to Microsoft documentation regarding its support Service Level Objectives, such as at https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/docs/view/Service-Level-Agreements-SLA-for-Online-Services.

Support contacts

Insight’s contact details for utilising the Insight Cloud Care service are as follows, in most cases Clients should contact support through the portal as the primary form of contact unless the incident requires an escalated priority.

Thank you for choosing to entrust your Microsoft cloud to Insight!

EXHIBIT D
Azure Plan

PROVISIONING AND USE OF AZURE. Insight performs the initial tenant set-up for Client, including adding Client’s subscription and configuring Client’s owner rights. Once a subscription has been created for Client, Cloud Services may be enabled and consumed by Client via the Microsoft Azure Services Portal. Use, reporting and invoicing of Cloud Services are based on a consumption or actual use model, as further described below. Client will be invoiced for Cloud Services consumed in accordance with usage reports provided by Microsoft.

TERM/TERMINATION. Cloud Services start once provisioned by Insight on Client’s behalf. Client can cancel the Cloud Services at any time by providing written notice. If Client terminates its use of Cloud Services, Client will remain responsible to Insight for the prior month’s consumption and all accrued charges for such Cloud Services which will be billed in the next scheduled invoice.

FEES AND INVOICING. Cloud Services will be invoiced monthly in arrears on an actual use basis (i.e. “pay-as-you-go”) as measured and reported to Insight by Microsoft. For any extension of a subscription term or the provisioning of a Cloud Service upgrade, the then-current price will apply, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by Insight and Client. Insight may change the fees it charges all clients for Cloud Services due to changes in Microsoft’s pricing and changes to its channel partner programs.

MICROSOFT AZURE PLAN

• For North America clients, with administrative access Client will earn 3.95% off of MSRP for consumption-based resources.
• For EMEA and APAC Clients, please work with your account team to understand the pricing for your Azure environment.
• If Insight’s administrative access is removed from Client’s account, then Client will be invoiced 13% above MSRP.
• If Client has signed a separate Azure order form or has written custom agreement with Insight, that will supersede the terms contained herein.
• Upon creation of Client’s Azure subscription, Insight is assigned administrative access to Client’s Azure subscriptions via the Foreign Principal Group by default. The Foreign Principal Group is a type of Azure Active Directory Group within Azure. The Foreign Principal Group grants Insight’s specified CSP administrators and engineers the ability to assist with managing Azure subscriptions and the resources contained within. Insight utilizes the Foreign Principal Group to assist Client with specific requests such as: Azure support resolution, assignment of owner rights, password resets, Azure Reserved Instances and adding new Azure subscriptions. Insight’s administrative access through the Foreign Principal Group is only utilized with Client’s specific authorization to perform a Client directed request and does not grant Insight access or visibility to Client’s data. Should Microsoft change the levels of access administered through the Foreign Principal Group such that Insight is able to access client data, Insight will notify client of such change and work with client to identify a new level of access if required, as mutually agreed.

AZURE SERVICES NOT SUBJECT TO DISCOUNT
Microsoft offers several types of Azure services that are not subject to discount such as (but not limited to) Azure Reservations, Savings Plans, and TelCo Credits. Client agrees to pay fees quoted at the time of Client’s order of any such item. Such purchases may be invoiced (i) monthly; or (ii) up-front, in full, for the entire term. All such programs have their own unique coverage period (not coterminous to any previous Azure Reservation purchase). In addition, the following terms apply to such purchases:

• Exchange Policy:
  • Client can return multiple existing reservations to purchase a new reservation of the same type. Client can’t exchange reservations of one type for another.
  • An exchange is processed as a refund and repurchase – different transactions are created for the cancellation and the new purchase. The prorated reservation amount is refunded for the reservations that are traded in. Client is charged fully for the new purchase.
  • The new purchase total must be equal to or be greater than the returned amount to qualify.
  • The new reservation purchased as part of the exchange has a new term starting from the time of the exchange.
  • There is no penalty or annual limits for exchanges.
• Refund Policy:
  • If Client cancels a reservation, Microsoft may issue a 12% early termination fee.
  • The refund Client receives for a cancellation is the remaining pro-rated balance minus the 12% early termination fee, if applicable.
  • The client refund amount is subject to change at Microsoft’s discretion as set forth in the Microsoft Product Terms.

AZURE MARKETPLACE
Client may purchase Offers from Microsoft’s Azure Marketplace (“Marketplace”). The purchasing and billing terms for Marketplace purchases will be governed by this Agreement and the applicable Microsoft terms governing all Marketplace purchases. Microsoft’s Azure Marketplace Terms and Conditions are referenced here. Client must have an active Azure subscription through Insight for all Marketplace purchases.
