Except to the extent finally determined to have resulted from BDO Group’s fraud or intentional misconduct, BDO Group’s aggregate liability to Client for all direct or third-party Claims shall not exceed two times (2x) the amount of fees paid by Client to BDO under this agreement during the 12 months preceding the date of the claim.

5. Third-Parties and Use. All Services and deliverables hereunder shall be solely for Client’s use and benefit pursuant to our client relationship. This engagement does not create privity between BDO and any person or party other than Client and is not intended for the express or implied benefit of any third party. No third party is entitled to rely, in any manner or for any purpose, on the Services or deliverables of BDO hereunder.
6. BDO Responsibilities. BDO’s Services will not constitute an audit, review, compilation, examination or other form of attest engagement. BDO shall have no responsibility to address any legal matters or questions of law. After completion of the Services, BDO will have no responsibility to update its advice, recommendations or work product for changes or modifications to the law and regulations or for subsequent events or transactions, unless Client separately engages BDO in writing to do so.
7. Client Responsibilities. For BDO to remain independent, professional standards require BDO to maintain certain respective roles and relationships with Client regarding the Services.
Client understands and agrees that BDO will not perform management functions or make management d ecisions on behalf of Client. However, BDO will provide advice and recommendations to assist management of Client in performing its functions and fulfilling its responsibilities. In connection with BDO’s provision of Services, Client agrees that Client shall perform the following functions: (a) make all management decisions and perform all management functions with respect to the Services performed by BDO; (b) assign an individual who possesses suitable skill, knowledge and experience to oversee such Services and to evaluate the adequacy and results of such Services; and (c) accept responsibility for the results of such Services.
Because professional and certain regulatory standards require us to be independent, in both fact and appearance, with respect to the Client in the performance of our Services, any discussions that you have with personnel of BDO regarding employment could pose a threat to our independence.
4 Therefore, BDO requests that you inform us prior to any such discussions so that we can implement appropriate safeguards to maintain our independence.
The Client shall not employ or divert any employee or independent contractor of BDO. The obligations imposed by this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and continue for a period of one year following such termination. As liquidated damages for any breach of the obligations imposed by this paragraph, the Client shall pay to BDO an amount equal to 100% of the annual salary of any employee or 100% of the payments to any independent subcontractor over the most recent 12-month period, payable by BDO to the relevant employee or independent subcontractor at the time of such breach.
8. Client Materials. BDO shall be entitled to rely on and assume, without independent verification, that all representations, assumptions, information and data supplied by or on behalf of Client, its personnel, representatives, and agents (the “ Client Materials ”) are complete and accurate. Client is responsible for ensuring that all Client Materials provided to BDO may be transferred to BDO and processed in accordance with the terms of this agreement and applicable laws, and that to the extent required thereunder Client has obtained all consents required for BDO’s receipt and use of the Client Materials. Client agrees that it will not transmit or make accessible to BDO in any manner personally identifiable information unless reasonably required for BDO’s performance of the Services. BDO will not audit or otherwise verify the accuracy or completeness of the data you submit, although we may need to ask you for clarification of some of the information. Client shall be responsible for maintenance and retention of its records. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, BDO shall not assume any responsibility for any financial reporting with respect to the Services.
9. Ownership of Working Papers. In connection with the performance of the Services, we will prepare records and deliverables as set forth above. We also will prepare documents that support our work and include items such as work programs and analyses that do not constitute part of Client’s records (“Working Papers”). The Working Papers prepared pursuant to this agreement are the property of BDO. The Working Papers constitute confidential, proprietary, and trade secret information, and will be retained by BDO in accordance with our policies and procedures and all applicable laws.
10. Additional Fees and Expenses. The amount of our fees is based upon the expectation that certain information and assistance will be received by BDO in a timely manner from Client as set forth in this agreement. If BDO believes an additional fee is required as the result of the failure of Client to meet any of these requests for information or for any other reason, BDO will inform you in a timely manner.
Our standard practice is to render our invoices on a monthly basis. Payment of our invoices is due upon receipt. Invoices that are unpaid 30 days past the invoice date are deemed delinquent and we reserve the right to charge interest on the past due amount at the lesser of 1.0% per month or the maximum amount permitted by law. If an account has fees that are not paid in a timely manner, we then reserve the right to suspend our Services, terminate the licensing arrangements under which you receive a license to use, or suspend your access to, External Computing Options provided through BDO, withhold delivery of any deliverables, or withdraw from this engagement entirely. If any collection action is required, you agree to reimburse us for all our costs of collection, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees.
5 11. Assignment and Sole Recourse. In performing the Services hereunder, BDO may assign its rights to perform a portion of the Services to, and may engage, the service of entities owned in whole or in part by BDO (“Affiliates”), members of the BDO Alliance USA (a nationwide association of independently -owned local and regional accounting, consulting and service firms, (“Alliance Firms”), independent member firms of the international BDO network (“Member Firms ”), and independent contractors, including but not lim ited to parties who render auxiliary services (“Contractors” and, together with Affiliates, Alliance Firms and Member Firms, collectively, “Third- Party Service Providers.” If a Third-Party Service Provider is utilized or assignment is made, Client agrees that, unless Client contracts directly with the Third-Party Service Provider, substantially all of the applicable terms and conditions set forth in the agreement, shall apply to the Third- Party Service Provider. BDO agrees that it shall not permit the Thi rd-Party Service Provider to perform any work relating to the Services until the Third- Party Service Provider agrees to be bound by the applicable terms and conditions of this agreement. BDO further agrees that it will remain primarily responsible for the Services, unless Client and BDO agree otherwise, and BDO will ensure that the work of the Third-Party Service Provider is performed in accordance with this agreement. Although applicable privacy laws may vary depending on the jurisdiction and may provide less or different protection than those of Client’s home country, BDO requires Third-Party Service Providers to agree to maintain the confidentiality of Client’s information and observe BDO’s policies concerning any confidential client information that BD O provides to Third-Party Service Providers. To the extent you have any Claims against a Member Firm that is a Third Party Service Provider in any way arising from, in respect of or in connection with the Services or this agreement, you agree that you sha ll bring such Claim(s) against BDO instead of such Member Firm, except to the extent finally judicially determined to have resulted from the fraud or intentional misconduct of such Member Firm. A Member Firm may enforce any limitations or exclusions of lia bility available to BDO under this agreement.
12. Without our prior written consent, Client may not assign this agreement except to a party that acquires substantially all of your assets and operations.
13. Dispute Resolution. Any dispute or claim between you and BDO arising out of or relating to this agreement or a breach of this agreement, including, without limitation, claims for breach of contract, professional negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, fraud or claims based in whole or in part on any other common- law, statutory, regulatory, legal or equitable theory, and disputes regarding all fees, including attorneys’ fees of any type, and/or costs charged under this agreement (“Arbitration Claims”) (except to the extent provided below) shall be submitted to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Arbitration Claims shall be brought in a party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Arbitration Claims shall be heard by a panel of three (3) arbitrators, to be chosen as follows: within fifteen (15) days after the commencement of arbitration, each party shall select one person to act as arbitrator; thereafter, the two individually selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within ten (10) days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. The arbitration panel shall have the power to rule upon its own jurisdiction and authority, including any objection to the initial or continuing existence, validity, effectiveness or scope of this arbitration agreement.
The arbitration panel may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitration panel shall have no authority to award non-monetary or equitable relief, but nothing herein shall be construed as a prohibition against a party from pursuing non- monetary or equitable relief in a
6 federal or state court. The place of arbitration shall be the city in which the BDO office providing the majority of the Services involved is located, unless the parties agree in writing to a different location. Regardless of where the arbitration procee ding actually takes place, all aspects of the arbitration and this agreement shall be governed by the provisions of the laws of the State of New York (except if there is no applicable state law providing for such arbitration, then the Federal Arbitration A ct shall apply) and the procedural and substantive law of such state shall be applied without reference to conflict of law rules. The parties shall bear their own legal fees and costs for all Arbitration Claims. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitration panel may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Except as may be required by law or to enforce an award, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the parties to this agreement.
The parties to this agreement acknowledge that by agreeing to this arbitration provision, they are giving up the right to litigate claims against each other, and important rights that would be available in litigation, including the right to trial by judge or jury, to extensive discovery and to appeal an adverse decision. The parties acknowledge that they have read and understand this arbitration provision, and that they voluntarily agree to binding arbitration.
14. Conflicts of Interest. BDO is not aware of any conflicts of interest with respect to any of the names Client has provided. BDO is not responsible for continuously monitoring other potential conflicts that could arise during the course of the engagement, although we will infor m Client promptly should any come to our attention. We reserve the right to resign from this engagement at any time if conflicts of interest arise or become known to us. Additionally, our engagement by Client will in no way preclude us from being engaged by any other party in the future.
Notwithstanding anything contained in confidentiality provisions set forth herein, BDO shall be permitted to disclose that it is engaged to provide the Services to Client under this agreement if BDO in its reasonable professional judgment determines that such disclosure is required in connection with BDO’s provision of services on behalf of other clients of BDO, including, without limitation, professional services engagements under which BDO personnel act as professionals in legal proceedings that require disclosures, arbitrators in post-acquisition disputes or act as expert witnesses.
15. Power and Authority. Each of the parties hereto has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this agreement and to carry out and perform its respective obligations hereunder. This agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of each party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms.
16. Subpoenas. If Client requests BDO to object to or respond to, or BDO receives and responds to, a validly issued third party subpoena, court order, government regulatory inquiry, or other similar request for, or legal process for the production of, documents and/or testimony relative to information we obtained and/or prepared during the course of this or any prior engagements with Client, you agree to compensate us for all time BDO expends in connection with such response, at our standard rates, and to reimburse BDO for all related out -of-pocket costs (including outside attorneys’ fees) that we incur.
17. Email Communications. BDO disclaims and waives, and the Client releases BDO from all liability for the interception or unintentional disclosure of e- mail transmissions or for the
7 unauthorized use or failed delivery of e- mails transmitted or received by BDO in connection with the performance of the Services.
18. External Computing Options. If, at the Client’s request, any member of the BDO Group agrees to use certain external commercial services, including but not limited to services for cloud storage, remote access, third party software and/or file sharing options (collectively “ External Computing Options ”), that are outside of BDO’s standard security protocol, the Client acknowledges that such External Computing Options may be associated with heightened security and privacy risks. Accordingly, BDO Group disclaims, and the Client agrees to release BDO Gro up from, and indemnify BDO Group for, all liability arising out of or related to the use of such External Computing Options.
19. Electronic Transmissions. This agreement may be transmitted in electronic format and shall not be denied legal effect solely because it was formed or transmitted, in whole or in part, by electronic record; however, this agreement must then remain capable of being retained and accurately reproduced, from time to time, by electronic record by the parties to this agreement and all other persons or entities required by law. An electronically transmitted signature to this agreement will be deemed an acceptable original for purposes of consummating this agreement and binding the party providing such electronic signature.
20. Severability. If any portion of this agreement is held to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, such portion of this agreement shall be amended to the minimum extent required to make the provision enforceable and the remaining portions of this agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

22. Confidentiality. Each of the parties hereto shall treat and keep all the “Confidential Information” as confidential, with at least the same degree of care as it accords to its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Each party shall disclose the Confidential Information only to its employees, partners, contractors, agents or its legal or other advisors, provided that they have: (i) each been informed of the confidential, proprietary and secret nature of the Confidential Information, or are subject to a binding, preexisting obligation of confidentiality no less stringent than the requirements of this agreement and (ii) a demonstrable need to review such Confidential Information. “Confidential Information" means all non -public information that is marked as “confidential” or “proprietary” or has commercial value in the party’s business and is obtained by one party (the “Receiving Party”) from the other party (the “ Disclosing Party”).
