##6.1 Fees
Subscriber will pay all fees specified in Service Orders and provide accurate and updated billing contact information. Except as set forth in a Service Order, all fees payable under the Agreement shall be made in Euro. Minimum commitments in Service Orders are (a) based on Services purchased and not actual usage; (b) non-cancelable; and (c) cannot be decreased during the specified term. Fees paid for minimum commitments are not refundable. Subscriber’s payments of fees are neither (x) contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features nor (y) dependent on statements not set forth in the Agreement or any Service Order.
##6.2 Invoicing Terms
If the Service Order specifies that payment will occur by a method other than a credit card, Subscriber will provide a purchase order number in the applicable amount (or reasonable alternative proof of Subscriber’s ability to pay the fees specified in a Service Order), and promptly notify Woleet of any changes necessary for payment of an invoice. Woleet will invoice Subscriber either monthly or according to the billing frequency stated in the Service Order. Invoices to be paid by credit card are due on the invoice date, all other invoices are due net 30 days from the invoice date. If any invoiced amount is not received by Woleet by the due date, then without limiting Woleet’s rights or remedies: (a) those charges may accrue late interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower and (b) Woleet may condition future subscription renewals and Service Orders on shorter payment terms. If Subscriber is paying for Services by credit card, Subscriber will provide Woleet’s authorized payment processer with valid credit card information and promptly notify Woleet’s authorized payment processor of any changes necessary to charge the credit card. The provision of credit card information to Woleet’s authorized payment processer authorizes Woleet, through its authorized payment processer, to charge the credit card for all Services specified in a Service Order, and any renewal subscription. Subscriber acknowledges that Woleet will not have access to Subscriber’s credit card information.
##6.3 Suspension of Service and Acceleration
If any amount owing by Subscriber is 30 or more days overdue (or 15 or more days overdue in the case of invoices to be paid by credit card), Woleet may, without limiting any rights and remedies, accelerate Subscriber’s unpaid fee obligations to become immediately due and payable, and block the provision of Services to Subscriber until the overdue amounts are paid in full. Woleet will give Subscriber at least 10 days’ prior notice that its account is overdue before blocking Services to Subscriber.
##6.4 Payment Disputes
Woleet will not exercise any rights to block Services, accelerate payments, impose late charges or change payment terms under Section 6.2 (Invoicing Terms) and Section 6.3 (Suspension of Service and Acceleration) with respect to an overdue amount for so long as Subscriber is disputing the overdue amount in good faith. The parties shall cooperate diligently to resolve the dispute.
##6.5 Refund or Payment upon Termination
If Subscriber terminates the Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2 (Termination for Cause), Woleet will refund any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of all Service Orders after the effective date of termination. If the Agreement is terminated by Woleet in accordance with Section 5.2 (Termination for Cause), Subscriber will pay any unpaid fees covering the remainder of the term of all Service Orders. In no event will termination relieve Subscriber of its obligation to pay any fees payable for the period prior to the effective date of termination. If Subscriber terminates without cause prior to the end of the then current term, Subscriber shall be immediately liable for the balance of the fees for the remainder of the term.
##6.6 Taxes
Fees for Services do not include any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use, or withholding taxes assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Subscriber is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its Service Orders. If Woleet is obligated by law to pay or collect Taxes for which Subscriber is responsible, Woleet will invoice Subscriber and Subscriber will pay that amount unless Subscriber can provide a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. Subscriber will provide Woleet any information Woleet reasonably requests to determine whether Woleet is obligated to collect Taxes. Woleet is solely responsible for taxes assessable against its income, property, and employees.

#11. Force Majeure

#12. Equitable Relief
The parties agree that a material breach of the Agreement adversely affecting Woleet intellectual property rights in Woleet Software may cause irreparable injury to Woleet and/or its licensors for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Woleet shall be entitled to equitable relief (without a requirement to post a bond) in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law.

Woleet and Subscriber each represent that it has validly entered into or accepted the Agreement and has the legal power to do so. Woleet may modify these Terms from time to time. Any and all changes to these Terms will be posted at doc.woleet.io and the Terms will indicate the date they were last updated. The changes will become effective ten (10) days after posting and Subscriber may terminate the Agreement without penalty upon notice to Woleet within ten (10) days of the effective date of the revised Terms. Subscriber is deemed to accept and agree to be bound by any changes to the Agreement when Subscriber uses the Service after the effective date of those changes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the parties enter into, or have entered into a separate formal written subscript agreement, the terms of that agreement shall control over the terms of the Agreement unless the parties expressly agree to supersede such agreement with this Agreement. Any term or condition stated in a Subscriber purchase order or other Subscriber order documents (excluding Service Orders) is void. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under the Agreement will constitute a waiver of that right. If any provision of the Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision will be deemed null and void, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in effect. All reference in the Agreement to “including” means “including but not limited to”.
