ORDERING OF SERVICE

1.1.  Service Agreement: Customer may, from time to time, request Onward provide it with Services as further

delineated, and agreed to, in an order (“Service Agreement”). Customer is solely responsible for the accuracy of the information provided in the Service Agreement(s). Onward agrees to provide to Customer, and Customer agrees to procure from Onward the Service(s) at the location(s) set forth in the applicable Service Agreement. Each Service Agreement shall clearly set forth the type of Service(s), location(s), monthly recurring charge (“MRC”), non- recurring charge (“NRC”), as well as any additional specific terms for the Service(s).

1.2.  Service Term: The term for the Service(s) will commence once all Services ordered, under such Service Agreement, are delivered to the Customer and will continue on a month-to-month basis until either Party provides the other with thirty (30) day notice of its desire to terminate (“Service Term”). Onward shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Service(s) to Customer on the date set forth in the Service Agreement(s); however, Onward does not guarantee that Service will be installed and provisioned on such date. Customer is responsible for providing all reasonable information, authorizations, and access required by Onward for the purpose of performing installation, maintenance and repair of the Service(s).

GENERAL COMMERCIAL TERMS

2.1.  Commencement of Billing: Upon installation and testing of the ordered Service, Onward will deliver to Customer a notice that such Service is installed, meets the agreed upon specifications, and is ready for Customer’s use (“Acceptance Date”). The Acceptance Date occurs per Service, per location, and billing shall commence for such Service on its respective Acceptance Date. The Acceptance Date is not contingent upon Customer’s need to procure equipment, support or other services from a different provider.

2.2.  Payment of Invoices: Invoices are sent monthly for the Service(s) currently being used. All invoices are due for payment within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Past due amounts bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month, or the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, and continue to accrue until paid in full. Onward shall be entitled to recover all costs of collection of past due amounts, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

2.3.  Billing Disputes: Customer must notify Onward in writing of any disputed charge within one hundred and twenty (120) days from the date of the invoice, unless applicable law requires a longer period. Any charge not disputed within said 120-day period will be deemed correct and Customer will be deemed to have waived its right to dispute the same. Onward will review any disputed charge, respond to all complaints within five (5) business days of the receipt of the complaint, unless an investigation requires a search of historical records in which case we will respond within fourteen (14) business days and, as appropriate, credit Customer’s account for any charge erroneously billed to Customer.

2.4. Taxes and Fees: Taxes, surcharges, fees, universal service fund charges associated with the Service, and other payments contractual or otherwise, are not included in the MRC stated in the Service Agreement and will be billed and paid by Customer as separate line items to the extent imposed on a pass-through basis without mark-up of any kind whatsoever. Customer shall not be liable for any taxes, fees, or other charges based upon Onward’s income.

CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS

3.1.  Customer’s Equipment: Customer is responsible for connectivity to the Service(s) and any inside wiring, facilities, or equipment located on Customer’s side of the Service will, at all times, be installed, maintained, repaired, operated, controlled, and remain the sole and exclusive property of Customer (“Customer’s Equipment”).

3.2.  Security: Customer shall be solely responsible for all the security and confidentiality of information it transmits using a Service.

IN THE EVENT OF CUSTOMER’S MATERIAL BREACH OF ANY PROVISION OF THESE TERMS, ONWARD, IN ADDITION TO ALL OTHER REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO IT HEREUNDER, AT LAW, IN EQUITY, OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE TARIFF, MAY SUSPEND OR TERMINATE THE PROVISION OF SERVICE TO CUSTOMER.

Disclaimer of Warranties: ONWARD MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

In the event Customer orders VoIP Service, a separate acknowledgement will be explained and signed by Customer.

Battery Backup Power: In the event Customer selects VoIP Service, Onward will provide Customer a backup power solution that offers twenty-four (24) hours of standby backup power.
