1 DiamondDonate Service Agreement This service agreement ( AGREEMENT ) is made effective this day of, by and between the following parties: Diamond Payment Systems P.O. Box Salt Lake City, UT (877) voice (801) fax ( DPS ) ( CUSTOMER ) Section I. Products & Services To Be Provided. DPS agrees to license to CUSTOMER the DPS DiamondDonate software tools and its associated technologies ( DD ) for use to accept donations online. DPS shall provide, via DD, customized access to online donation processing tools for use by CUSTOMER. These tools will be custom-designed to closely match the web site design of existing CUSTOMER site. DPS will provide a unique URL for CUSTOMER to link to for accepting donations online. Section II. Fees. CUSTOMER agrees to pay DPS all applicable initial licensing fees and ongoing service fees according to the attached Exhibit A, as consideration for services rendered pursuant to the terms of this AGREEMENT. (See Exhibit A, Licensing and Service Fees ). All fees for the DD product are to be paid via automatic credit card billing, to a credit card instrument kept securely on file by DPS. CUSTOMER shall have the right to change this payment method at any time, and agrees to keep expiration date and other payment information updated and current at all times to prevent network decline of credit card billing transactions. CUSTOMER recognizes that during the entire lifetime of this AGREEMENT, the CUSTOMER must maintain an active, functioning gateway account with the Diamond Payment Systems Payment Gateway, and that fees for that service (if any) are separate and independent from the services to be provided in this AGREEMENT. Section III. Implementation Timeline. Implementation of DD will commence upon acceptance of the AGREEMENT by both parties and payment of any fees due at contract signing according to attached Exhibit A. (See Exhibit A). Readiness of the solution will depend upon resource availability at DPS, but is typically completed in less than 30 days. Ongoing service fees will not commence until implementation is completed and, at the sole discretion of DPS, live donations are ready to be accepted. CUSTOMER agrees to post appropriate, prominent links to the DD donation acceptance page within 5 calendar days after being notified in any manner by DPS that implementation is complete and the system is ready to accept donations. Section IV. Exclusivity. DPS shall serve as the sole and exclusive provider for online donation services for CUSTOMER during the term of this AGREEMENT. CUSTOMER shall not engage or implement any alternate online donation service during the term of this AGREEMENT, nor create a self-hosted replacement for the DD services. This restriction shall not in any way limit the ability of CUSTOMER to process other donation or fundraising transactions (provided such activity takes place away from the Internet environment). Section V. Web Site Branding and Hosting Expense. DPS reserves the right to add certain branding, graphical and textual elements to the online content delivered by the DPS online donation engine, subject to reasonable review by CUSTOMER. Initial donation engine template configuration is included with any setup fee indicated in Exhibit A; subsequent redesign of templates shall incur a nominal hourly charge. CUSTOMER employees will carefully follow the instructions of DPS employees regarding linking to the online donation engine, and shall not take any action that could compromise the security of or affect the normal operation or availability of the online donation engine. Internet hosting of the CUSTOMER s own website, and all related costs, are specifically excluded from this AGREEMENT, and are the sole responsibility of CUSTOMER. Internet hosting of the online donation engine, and all related costs, is the sole responsibility of DPS. Section VI. Term and Termination. This AGREEMENT shall remain in effect for thirty six (36) months following the completion of project implementation. Thereafter, the AGREEMENT will automatically renew for successive terms, the duration of each term lasting twelve (12) months, unless at the end of any term either party elects to terminate the AGREEMENT by providing written notice at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date of the currently active term Diamond Payment Systems SERVICE AGREEMENT: Page 1 of 5
