THIS AGREEMENT GOVERNS YOUR (“CUSTOMER”) ORGANIZATION’S ACQUISITION AND USE OF PDQ ECOMMERCE INC. (HEREAFTER “PDQ”) SOFTWARE SERVICES LOCATED AT HTTPS://WWW.PRETTYDAMNQUICK.COM/, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL SUBDOMAINS (THE “PLATFORM”).

IF YOU REGISTER FOR A FREE TRIAL FOR ACCESS TO THE PLATFORM, THIS AGREEMENT WILL ALSO GOVERN THAT FREE TRIAL. BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, EITHER BY CLICKING A BOX INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OR BY EXECUTING AN ORDER FORM THAT REFERENCES THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. 

IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, IN WHICH CASE THE TERM “CUSTOMER” SHALL REFER TO YOU AND/OR SUCH ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOU MUST NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT USE THE PLATFORM.

Customer may not access the Platform if Customer is a direct competitor of PDQ, except with PDQ’s prior written consent. In addition, Customer may not access the Platform for the purposes of monitoring its availability, performance or functionality.

Customer’s use of the Platform constitutes Customer’s agreement to these terms. It is effective between Customer and PDQ as of the date Customer signs or otherwise consents to an Order Form or Customer’s first use of the Platform, whichever is earlier.

‍

  1. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

‍

This Agreement sets forth the terms under which PDQ will provide access to the Platform to Customer. The Agreement incorporates the following components: (i) Appendix 1 – Definitions, (ii) the applicable transaction document such as an Order Form, and (iii) the Support Terms.

‍

  1. SUBSCRIPTIONS TO THE SERVICE

‍

  1. Subscriptions to the Platform.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable Order Form, PDQ grants Customer and its Authorized Users a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable (as provided herein) right to access and use the Platform during the Term solely for Customer’s internal business purposes. 
  2. Usage Limits. Subscriptions for the Platform are limited to the OPYs (Orders Per Year) described in the applicable Order Form.  If Customer exceeds its purchased OPY’s, Customer will pay PDQ’s invoice for the excess entitlements according to the Agreement. Customer may not reduce the quantity of entitlements (e.g., OPYs) during the applicable Subscription Term.
  3. Beta Platform. PDQ may invite Customer to try features of the Platform that are not generally available to customers (“Beta Platform”) at no charge. Customer is under no obligation to use the Beta Platform. The Beta Platform will be clearly designated. The Beta Platform is: (i) for evaluation purposes only and not for production use, (ii) is not considered part of the “Platform” under the Agreement, and (iii) is not subject to the Support Terms. PDQ may discontinue the Beta Platform at any time. The Beta Platform is provided “as-is” without warranty, and notwithstanding Section 11, PDQ will have no liability for any claim arising from Customer’s, its Affiliates’, or Users’ use of the Beta Platform.
  4. AI Features.  From time to time, PDQ may make available certain functionalities that allow Customer to utilize artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar technologies through or in connection with the Platform’s processing of Customer Data (the “AI Features”). Customer Data will not be used to train or improve PDQ or third-party foundation models without Customer’s prior written consent. Customer or its Users may provide input, including Customer Data, for use with the AI Features (“AI Input”) and receive “Customer-Consumable Output” which means the portion of the AI output that is presented, exported, transmitted, or otherwise made available to Customer in human or machine-readable form for Customer’s review, use, reuse, combination, analysis, modification, distribution, operationalization. “System-Embedded Output” is also generated from AI Input and is any portion of the AI output that consists of or is inseparably embedded within software source code, or object code, scripts, models, weights, algorithms, system logic, workflows, or other functional or machine-executable elements that are part of the operation of the Platform.  Customer owns “Customer-Consumable Output” and PDQ owns “System-Embedded Output”.  Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer is responsible for reviewing and validating Customer Consumable Output for its needs and technical environment. Customer agrees to comply with any applicable AI Feature restrictions communicated by PDQ. 
  5. Connected Applications. The Platform contains features designed to interoperate with Connected Applications. To use such features, Customer or its Users may be required to obtain access to such Connected Applications from their providers and grant PDQ access to Customer’s or its Users’ account(s) on such Connected Applications. If Customer uses a Connected Application with the Platform, Customer grants PDQ permission to allow the Connected Application and its provider to access Customer Data solely as required for the interoperation of that Connected Application with the Platform. Disclaimer: PDQ provides interoperability with Connected Applications on an as-is basis, and not part of the Subscription.  PDQ makes no warranty or guarantee as to the interoperability or availability of any Connected Applications and Customer’s use of any such Connected Applications is Customer’s responsibility. PDQ may terminate interoperability with Connected Applications at any time in PDQ’s sole discretion, after providing Customer commercially reasonable notice (except in the case where the Connected Application poses a security risk to the Platform). Any exchange of Customer Data between Customer and any Connected Application provider, product, or service, is solely between Customer and the applicable Connected Application provider. PDQ does not warrant or support Connected Applications. PDQ is not responsible for any disclosure, modification or deletion of Customer Data resulting from access by any Connected Application or its provider.
  6. Customer-Generated Scripts. The Customer acknowledges that Customer-generated scripts, third-party scripts, plug-ins, or integrations installed on their platform may interfere with or impair the operation of Platform functionalities. PDQ is not responsible for any interruption, errors, performance degradation, or data loss or discrepancies resulting from such scripts, code, tools, or integrations. The Customer assumes full responsibility for verifying compatibility before enabling or executing any such scripts.
  7. Support.  PDQ provides support and service levels according to the support terms found here: www.prettydamnquick.com/support (“Support Terms”).  PDQ is not responsible for supporting, or resolving errors originating from any third party tool, script, plugin, or Connected Application.
  1. PDQ RESPONSIBILITIES

  2. Professional Services.  PDQ may, as part of providing Professional Services, design or implement testing procedures — including without limitation A/B, multivariate, or other comparative experiments- that evaluate multiple versions of a buying experience or related workflows to determine relative performance or user engagement. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the inherent purpose of such testing is to identify both high-performing and low-performing variants, and that the existence of underperforming tests or versions is a natural and expected outcome of the testing process. Accordingly, PDQ shall have no responsibility or liability for any reduction in performance, conversion rates, or other metrics resulting from or during the course of such testing, provided that PDQ conducts such testing in accordance with Customer’s instructions. Furthermore, Customer acknowledges that certain Professional Services performed by PDQ in connection with the setup, configuration, or testing of the Platform may involve the exercise of human judgment and discretion. The parties agree that the nature of such services is inherently subject to human error. PDQ shall not be liable for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies arising from such Professional Services, provided that PDQ has performed such services in a manner consistent with the degree of care, skill, and diligence generally exercised by qualified professionals performing similar services. In the event Professional Services results in work product, PDQ shall all rights, title, and interest in and to the intellectual property rights of deliverables or work product resulting from the Professional Services (“Deliverables”), and grants to Customer a non-exclusive, worldwide right and license to use such Deliverables in connection with Customer’s permitted use of the Platform.  If any delay in launching or deploying the Company’s use of the Platform arises from the Customer, or occurs at the Customer’s request, the Customer shall not be entitled to any refund, credit, or other compensation for such delay, the delay shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. Likewise, any delay associated with feature requests, customizations, or professional services shall not give rise to any refund, credit, or other remedy.

‍

  1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND OWNERSHIP

No rights are granted to Customer hereunder other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Except for any obligations with respect to the Confidentiality of Customer Information in Section 8, nothing in this Agreement will impair PDQ’s right to develop, acquire, license, market, promote or distribute products, software or technologies that perform the same or similar functions as, or otherwise compete with, any products, software or technologies that Customer may develop, produce, market, or distribute.

‍

  1. Ownership and Processing of Customer Data. Customer and its licensors shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to all Customer Data stored or processed in connection with the Platform, including any modifications, updates, or derivative works thereof (including Customer-Consumable Output).

Feedback excludes Customer Data. PDQ shall have no obligation to treat Feedback as confidential or to compensate Customer or its Users for its use.

‍

  1. PAYMENT; TAXES

‍

  1. Fees/Payment. Customer shall pay all fees specified in each Order Form in the currency indicated therein, regardless of actual usage. All fees are non-cancelable and non-refundable except as expressly provided in this Agreement and will not be subject to setoff or deduction. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, fees are due in full, in advance, within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. PDQ may, but is not obligated to, allow Customer to pay by credit card in monthly installments.  If any undisputed amount remains unpaid more than ten (10) days after the due date, PDQ may, upon at least five (5) days’ prior written notice, suspend the Platform until the overdue amount is paid in full. Late payments may accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by law, if lower) on the outstanding balance.

‍

  1. Taxes. All fees are exclusive of any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including sales, use, value-added, excise, or withholding taxes (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for all Taxes associated with its purchases under this Agreement, excluding any taxes based solely on PDQ’s net income. PDQ may determine and invoice applicable Taxes based on Customer’s billing address, shipping address, or other relevant location information, and may include such Taxes on the same invoice as the associated fees or on a separate invoice, in accordance with applicable law. If Customer is exempt from any Taxes, it must provide PDQ with a valid tax exemption certificate or other legally sufficient proof of exemption. Customer will be liable for any Taxes, penalties, or interest arising from inaccurate or incomplete information provided by Customer. If customer is required to withhold Taxes from amounts payable to PDQ (e.g., VAT), Customer shall increase the payment such that PDQ receives the full amount it would have received had no withholding been required.

‍

  1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

‍

  1. Confidentiality. “Confidential Information” means any non-public information and materials disclosed by one party (“Discloser”) to the other party (“Recipient”) that are (i) marked as confidential at the time of disclosure, or (ii) disclosed in circumstances where a reasonable person would understand the information to be confidential. Confidential Information includes, without limitation, the terms of this Agreement, a party’s pricing, product roadmaps and development plans, strategic marketing plans, algorithms, business strategies, customer and prospect lists, design documentation, drawings, engineering information, financial data, forecasts, formulas, hardware configurations, know-how, inventions, market data, processes, products, research, specifications, software (including source code), trade secrets, and any other proprietary or sensitive information relating to the Platform, whether or not marked as confidential. Recipient may disclose Confidential Information only to its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, advisors, and contractors (collectively, “Representatives”) who have a legitimate need to know such information and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein. Recipient shall remain responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its Representatives.

‍

  1. Exclusions.  “Confidential Information” does not include information that: (i) was known to the Recipient without restriction prior to disclosure by the Discloser; (ii) is or becomes publicly available through no breach of this Agreement by the Recipient or its Representatives; (iii) is independently developed by the Recipient without use of or reference to the Discloser’s Confidential Information; (iv) is lawfully received by the Recipient from a third party without restriction and without breach of any obligation of confidentiality; (v) is approved for release by the Discloser in writing; or (vi) is generally made available by the Discloser to third parties without a duty of confidentiality.  The Recipient shall have the burden of proving that any of the foregoing exceptions apply.

‍

  1. Duties Regarding Confidential Information.  At all times during and after the term of this Agreement, the Recipient shall (i) protect the Discloser’s Confidential Information using the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information of like kind, but in no event less than reasonable care; (ii) not disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to any third party except as expressly permitted under this Agreement or with the Discloser’s prior written consent; and (iii) use the Confidential Information solely as necessary to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement. If the Recipient is required by law, regulation, or court order to disclose any of the Discloser’s Confidential Information, such disclosure will not constitute a breach of this Agreement, provided that (iv) the Recipient gives the Discloser prompt written notice (to the extent legally permitted) so the Discloser may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and (v) the Recipient discloses only the portion of Confidential Information that it is legally required to disclose. This confidentiality terms found in the Agreement supersede any prior nondisclosure or confidentiality agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and such agreement shall have no further force or effect.

‍

  1. Unauthorized Disclosures. The parties agree that any actual or threatened unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information by the Recipient may cause irreparable harm to the Discloser for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the Discloser shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief, without the requirement to post bond or other security, to prevent or restrain any such actual or threatened breach. Such injunctive relief shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies available to the Discloser at law or in equity.

‍

  1. WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMER

‍

  1. Warranty Claims. Except for the Customer’s right to terminate in accordance with Section 12.3, PDQ’s sole responsibility and Customer’s exclusive remedy in the event of any material failure of the warranties expressly stated in Section 9, shall be that PDQ shall make commercially reasonable efforts to remedy any resulting deficiencies. 

‍

EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 9, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE PLATFORM, CUSTOMER-CONSUMABLE OUTPUT, AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND PDQ MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE PLATFORM AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. PDQ SPECIFICALLY AND EXPLICITLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, THOSE ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OR TRADE, AND ALL SUCH WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. FURTHER, PDQ DOES NOT WARRANT THE PLATFORM OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR THAT THE USE OF THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED.

  1. INDEMNIFICATION

‍

  1. Indemnification by PDQ.    If a third party asserts or threatens a claim that Customer’s use of the Platform directly infringes the third party’s patent, copyright, or trademark (a “Claim”), PDQ will, at its expense: (a) assume the defense of the Claim, and (b) pay any damages, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees awarded in a final, non-appealable judgment or agreed to in a settlement approved by PDQ, to the extent attributable to Customer’s use of the Platform. PDQ’s obligations are subject to Customer: (i) being current on all applicable fees (or becoming current prior to requesting indemnification); (ii) providing written notice of the Claim to PDQ promptly, and in any event within fifteen (15) days of becoming aware of it; (iii) granting PDQ sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim, provided that Customer may approve any settlement that imposes a payment obligation or admission of liability on Customer; and (iv) providing reasonable cooperation in the defense.

‍

  1. Other Resolution.  If the Platform becomes the subject of any actual or anticipated third party infringement claim, PDQ may, at its sole option and expense, either: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the affected Platform consistent with this Agreement, (ii) replace or modify the affected Platform with a functionally equivalent service that does not infringe, or, (iii) if neither (i) nor (ii) is available on a commercially-feasible basis, terminate the Agreement and applicable Order Form and refund the pro rata amount of any prepaid fees for all unused portions of the then-current Subscription Term calculated as of the date of termination.

‍

  1. Exclusions. PDQ will have no obligation or liability under this Agreement for any Claim to the extent it arises from: (i) Customer’s use of the Platform in combination with any third-party products, services, hardware, data, or software (including Connected Applications) not provided by PDQ; (ii) use of the Platform in a manner not authorized by this Agreement, PDQ written instructions, or the applicable Order Form; (iii) compliance by PDQ with Customer’s specifications, designs, or instructions where the alleged infringement would not have occurred but for such compliance; or (iv) continued use of the Platform after PDQ has notified Customer to cease such use in order to avoid further infringement.  This Section states PDQ’s sole and exclusive liability, and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, with respect to any claims of intellectual property infringement or misappropriation arising from use of the Platform.
  2. Indemnification By Customer. If a third party asserts or threatens a claim against PDQ arising solely from PDQ’s processing of Customer Data uploaded to the Platform by Customer, Connected Applications, or its Users, or from Customer’s or a User’s breach of Sections 4, 5, or 9 of this Agreement, then Customer will: (i) assume the defense of the claim at its own expense, and (ii) indemnify and hold harmless PDQ from and against any damages, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent attributable to PDQ’s operation of the Platform in accordance with this Agreement. PDQ’s right to indemnification is conditioned on: (iii) PDQ providing prompt written notice of the claim to Customer (and in any event within a reasonable period after becoming aware of it); (iv) PDQ granting Customer sole control over the defense and settlement of the claim, provided that PDQ may approve any settlement that requires payment by PDQ or includes an admission of liability; and (v) PDQ providing reasonable cooperation in the defense at Customer’s expense.

‍

  1. Assignment. Either party may assign this Agreement without the consent of the other party to an Affiliate, or in connection with a merger, reorganization, acquisition, or other transfer of all or substantially all of such party’s assets (a “Sale”).  Assignment will not relieve the assigning party of its obligations under the assigned Agreement and such assignment will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. If Customer enters into a Sale with a direct competitor of PDQ or assigns the Agreement to a direct competitor of PDQ, PDQ may, in its sole discretion terminate the Agreement.

‍

  1. Compliance with Applicable Laws. Each party will comply with all applicable laws, including without limitation, applicable export-control restrictions, data privacy laws, and anti-corruption laws. 

‍

  1. Future Features and Functions.  Customer agrees that PDQ may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, modify and update the Platform. Customer understands and agrees that any features or functions related to PDQ products referenced on any PDQ website, or in any presentations, verbal or electronic communications, press releases or public statements, which are not currently available as a “Generally Available” release, may not be delivered on time or at all. The development, release, and timing of any features or functionality described for our products and services remains at PDQ’s sole discretion. Accordingly, Customer agrees that it is purchasing products and services based solely upon features and functions that are currently available as of the time an Order Form is executed, and not in expectation of any future feature or function.  Furthermore, Customer agrees PDQ may release functionality or features in the future not to be made available to the PDQ customer base generally, and that access to such new features may, in PDQ’s sole discretion, require payment of additional Fees.

‍

‍

  1. Non-waiver. The failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy will not constitute a waiver of such provision, right, or remedy, and will not limit that party’s ability to enforce such provision, right, or remedy at a later time or in any other instance. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to waive or limit either party’s rights or remedies with respect to acts or omissions occurring outside the scope of this Agreement.  

‍

  1. Dispute Resolution. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the Delaware, U.S.A., without giving effect to any conflicts of laws provisions.  Neither the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods nor the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act will apply to this Agreement. Any claim, suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its subject matter will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts of Wilmington County, Delaware, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts. No claim or action, regardless of form, arising out of this Agreement may be brought by either party more than one (1) year after the earlier of the following: a) the expiration or termination of all Subscriptions, b) the termination of this Agreement, or c) the time a party first became aware, or reasonably should have been aware, of the basis for the claim. To the fullest extent permitted, each party waives the right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

‍

  1. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable under applicable law by a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be replaced with the valid provision that most closely reflects the intent of the parties, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

‍

  1. Relationship of the Parties; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as creating an agency, partnership, or joint venture relationship between the parties hereto. Neither party shall have any right or authority to assume or create any obligations or to make any representations or warranties on behalf of any other party, whether express or implied, or to bind the other party in any respect. Each party may identify the other as a customer or supplier, as applicable. This Agreement is intended for the sole benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies on any person or entity other than the parties to this Agreement.

‍

  1. Force Majeure. Force Majeure Events shall excuse the affected party (the "Non-Performing Party") from its obligations under this Agreement so long as the event and its effects continue.  Force majeure events include acts which are beyond the reasonable control of a party, including without limitation, Acts of God, natural disasters, pandemic, epidemic, war, riot, network attacks, acts of terrorism, fire, explosion, accident, sabotage, strikes, inability to obtain power, fuel, material or labor, or acts of any government (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). As soon as feasible, the Non-Performing Party shall notify the other party of: (a) its best reasonable assessment of the nature and duration of the Force Majeure Event, and (b) the steps it is taking to mitigate its effects. If the Force Majeure Event prevents performance for more than sixty (60) days, and the parties have not agreed upon a revised basis for performance, then either party may immediately terminate the Agreement upon written notice.  PDQ’s suspension of the Platform in order to comply with laws is a Force Majeure Event.  A Force Majeure Event suffered by Customer will not suspend Customer’s requirement to pay Fees.

‍

  1. Publicity. During the term of this Agreement, Customer agrees to support PDQ’s marketing efforts in the following areas: (i) Customer’s name and logo may be used on PDQ’s website and in PDQ’s marketing materials (subject to PDQ’s compliance with any written trademark use guidelines provided by Customer to PDQ in advance), (ii) press release announcing Customer’s selection of PDQ and/or the Platform, and (iii) announcement of Customer’s use of PDQ (in a method of Customer’s choosing; blog, press release, email, other channels).  If Customer plans to submit or publish any research relative to Customer’s outcome of using PDQ Products and/or Platform, Customer agrees to inform PDQ prior to such submission or publication.

‍

  1. Entire Agreement; Execution. This Agreement, together with the Appendices and applicable Order Form(s) constitute the entire agreement between parties, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous proposals, quotes, negotiations, discussions, or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding its subject matter. Revisions to this Agreement must be made by a separate amendment, signed by each party, and must be expressly drafted for that purpose and identify the specific sections that are being revised.  However, if Customer agreed to these terms by reference in another binding instrument (e.g., on an Order Form which refers to these terms by URL), PDQ may change these terms by posting an updated version at the applicable URL and notifying Customer of the change. By continuing to access or use the Platform after such notice Customer agrees to be bound by the updated terms. Customer click-through terms, preprinted terms in Customer purchase orders or other customer-generated ordering documents, or terms referenced or linked within them, will have no effect on this Agreement and are hereby rejected, regardless of whether they are signed by PDQ and/or purport to take precedence over this Agreement. The order of precedence among all documents executed among the parties shall be: (1) the applicable Order Form, (2) this Agreement, and (3) the Support Terms. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which taken together shall form one binding legal instrument. The parties may use of electronic signatures in connection with the execution of this Agreement, and further agree that electronic signatures shall be legally binding with the same effect as manual signatures.
