6.4 Fixed Terms; Prices; Payment Methods. Subscription to Provider’s plans are for fixed terms, and the associated Fees payable for the Service are non-refundable. Prices for the Service are subject to change on thirty (30) days’ notice, provided that no price change will apply during the then-current annual subscription term. Depending on the jurisdiction of Customer, foreign exchange fees or differences in prices may apply, including because of exchange rates. Provider, or Reseller, as applicable, does not support all payment methods, currencies or locations for payment.

(c) any proceedings are instituted by or against the other Party under any insolvency laws or for reorganization, receivership or dissolution.

13.3 Termination between Reseller and Customer. Should Customer wish to terminate its use of the Service, and where Customer subscribes for the Service directly through a Reseller, Customer must notify Provider and Reseller of its intention to terminate. If Customer wishes to terminate its relationship with Reseller, and where Reseller billed Customer directly for the Service, Customer may continue to subscribe for the Service with Provider, provided that should Customer renew its annual subscription term, Customer will pay all Fees directly to Provider in accordance with Sections 6.1 and 6.3.

13.4 Consequences of Termination. Upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Customer will immediately discontinue use of the Service and, without limiting Customer’s obligations under Section 7.1, Customer will delete, destroy, or return all copies of the Provider IP and certify in writing to Provider that the Provider IP has been deleted or destroyed. No expiration or termination will affect Customer’s obligation to pay all Fees that may have become due before such expiration or termination, or entitle Customer to any refund.

14. PROCESS TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE

14.1 Free Trial. Customer may, if it chooses, engage in a twenty-eight day (28) free trial (the "Free Trial Period") prior to agreeing upon a subscription set out in an Order Form. In the event that Customer chooses to engage in the free trial, Customer acknowledges that the terms of this Agreement apply to Customer during the Free Trial Period, and where Customer subscribes to the Service after the Free Trial Period, the terms of this Agreement will continue to apply thereto.

14.2 Quote. Upon completion of the Free Trial Period, or at any time during the Free Trial Period, Customer may request a Quote from Provider.

14.3 Order Form. If Customer wishes to subscribe to the provision of the Service by Provider, or in the event Customer chooses to engage in the free trial and wishes to continue using the Service, prior to the end of the Free Trial Period, Customer will agree to an Order Form with Provider or Reseller, as applicable, and subscribe for an annual subscription term. The annual subscription term will automatically renew for one or more subsequent renewal periods as specified in the applicable Order Form, unless either of the parties hereto gives written notice to the other party of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current term. The Fees will be based on the number of Authorized Users indicated on the Order Form by Customer, subject to any audits/verifications of the number of Authorized Provider as conducted by Provider. Provider reserves the right to increase the Fees on renewal in accordance with the thirty (30) day notice provision set forth in Section 6.4. For greater certainty, the Fees set out in the Order Form will be paid to Provider, or Reseller, as applicable, for any and all terms subsequent to the Free-Trial Period.
