MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Fivetran Master Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between Fivetran, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Fivetran”) and each party (a “Customer”) that executes an Order Form for the Services, as defined below. Between Fivetran and each Customer the Agreement consists of these terms, each Order Form, including any exhibits, and each amendment of any of the foregoing. This Agreement is effective as of the date of Customer’s initial Order Form (the “Effective Date”). By executing the initial Order Form, Customer agrees to all the terms set forth below.

In certain cases Fivetran may provide a trial version of the Services. In that case each Customer consents to this Agreement by clicking Agree or using the Services. If Customer and Fivetran execute a subsequent agreement regarding commercial use of the Services, its terms will supersede the terms here to the extent of any conflict.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1. SERVICES AND SUPPORT

1.1. Services. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Fivetran will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Customer the services identified on each Order Form and the technical support on Exhibit A. As used in this Agreement, the term “Services” includes the customer-facing services, implementation services, support, Software (as defined below) and any other services provided by Fivetran to Customer. As part of the registration process, Customer will identify an administrative username(s) and password(s) for Customer’s Fivetran user(s).

1.2. Orders by Affiliates. Customer’s Affiliates may, upon executing a new Order Form and agreeing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement use the Services identified in that Order Form. Upon execution of an Order Form by Fivetran and the Affiliate(s), the Affiliate(s) will be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as if they were an original party hereto. “Affiliate” means an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with a party to this Agreement at any time during the term of this Agreement, for so long as such ownership and control exists, provided such entity is not a competitor to Fivetran or in the business of developing and offering products or technologies that are substantially similar to the Services.

2. RESTRICTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

2.1. Use of Software Underlying Services. Customer will not, directly or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code or underlying structure, ideas, know-how or algorithms relevant to the Services or any software, documentation or data related to the Services (the “Software”); modify, translate, or create derivative works based on the Services or any Software (except to the extent expressly permitted by Fivetran in writing or authorized within the Services); frame, mirror or use the Services or any Software for timesharing or service bureau purposes or otherwise for the benefit of a third party, except as part of a Powered by Fivetran deployment identified on an Order Form; or remove any proprietary notices or labels.

2.2. Appropriate Use of Services. Customer will not, and will not permit its users to:

  • (a) Post, upload, forward, or otherwise transmit any file or software code which contains, facilitates, or launches viruses, worms, trojan horses or any other contaminating or destructive features, or that otherwise interfere with the proper working of the Services; or

  • (b) Attempt to access any other Fivetran systems that are not part of these Services.

  • (c) Use the Services to upload, post, process, distribute, link to, publish, reproduce, or transmit any of the following, including but not limited to:

    • (ii) Any information, software or content Customer does not have the legal right to process or transmit.

2.3. Although Fivetran has no obligation to monitor Customer’s use of the Services, Fivetran may do so and may prohibit any use of the Services it believes may be in violation of the foregoing.

3. CONFIDENTIALITY

3.1. Confidential Information. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.2, all information disclosed by one party to the other party during the term of this Agreement, whether in oral, written, graphic or electronic form, shall be deemed to be “Confidential Information”.

Confidential Information of Customer includes all data provided by Customer to Fivetran to enable the provision of the Services (“Customer Data”).

3.2. Exceptions. Confidential Information does not include information which: (a) is part of the public domain at the time of disclosure; (b) becomes a part of the public domain through no fault of the receiving party or persons or entities to whom the receiving party has disclosed, transferred or permitted access to such information; (c) becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source legally entitled to share the information without confidential treatment; (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or access to the disclosing party's Confidential Information; or (e) is released from the confidentiality obligations herein by written consent of the disclosing party.

3.3. Nondisclosure. Each party covenants that it will not disclose any Confidential Information of the other party to any person or entity except: (a) to agents of the receiving party who have a need to know such information, who are subject to confidentiality agreements with the receiving party at least as protective of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as this Agreement, or (b) pursuant to the terms of a valid and effective subpoena or court order, provided that the receiving party immediately notifies the disclosing party (to the extent permitted) of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such a request so that the disclosing party may seek appropriate protective action. Neither party may use the other party's Confidential Information in any directly competitive manner or for any purpose other than to exercise its rights and comply with its obligations under this Agreement.

3.4. Return; Destroy; Protect. On the disclosing party’s request, the receiving party must return or destroy all Confidential Information of the disclosing party which has been supplied to or acquired by the receiving party other than: (a) records the receiving party has a separate legal right or obligation to retain; and (b) copies of Confidential Information created in the ordinary course of the receiving party’s business and retained in accordance with its internal document retention and information technology policies.

Customer owns all right, title and interest in and to the Customer Data as well as any data that is based on or derived from the Customer Data and provided to Customer as part of the Services, and all intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing. Fivetran owns and retains all right, title and interest in and to (a) the Services and Software, all improvements, enhancements or modifications thereto, (b) any software, applications, inventions or other technology developed in connection with the Services, and (c) all intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing.

4.3. Removal of Customer Data. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, in the event Fivetran has any Customer Data, Fivetran shall delete all such Customer Data from its systems without retaining any copies thereof.

4.4. Injunction for Breach. The parties agree that damages would be an inadequate remedy in the event of a breach of Sections 3 or 4. Therefore, the parties agree that a party is entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies otherwise available, to seek injunctive and other equitable relief in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the other party of Sections 3 or 4.

5. PAYMENT OF FEES

5.1. Calculation of Fees. Customer will pay Fivetran the applicable fees described in each Order Form (the “Fees”). The initial Fees are identified on the initial Order Form. Except as otherwise provided herein all fees are noncancelable and nonrefundable. If Customer’s use of the Services exceeds the Services capacity set forth on the Order Form(s) or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees (per the terms of this Agreement), Fivetran will invoice Customer for such additional usage and Customer agrees to pay the additional Fees in the manner provided herein.

5.2. Payment Terms. Fivetran will bill through an invoice. Full payment for invoices issued in any given month must be received by Fivetran within 30 days after the mailing date of the invoice (which may be sent by email). Unpaid amounts are subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection and may result in immediate termination of Services. Customer is responsible for any sales, use, value added, excise, property, withholding or similar tax and any related tariffs, and similar charges, except taxes based on Fivetran’s net income. If Customer is required to pay any such taxes, Customer shall pay such taxes with no reduction or offset in the amounts payable to Fivetran hereunder. If an applicable tax authority requires Fivetran to pay any taxes that should have been payable by Customer, Fivetran will advise Customer in writing, and Customer will promptly reimburse Fivetran for the amounts paid. If Customer believes that Fivetran has billed Customer incorrectly, Customer must contact Fivetran no later than 60 days after the date of the first billing statement in which the error or problem appeared, in order to receive an adjustment or credit. Inquiries should be directed to Fivetran’s customer support department. Without limiting its other remedies, Fivetran may suspend Services for nonpayment of fees.

6. TERM AND TERMINATION

6.1. Term. This Agreement will continue from the Effective Date until the earlier of: (a) the expiration of all Services subscriptions, or (b) termination pursuant to Section 6.2 below (the “Term”). Each Services subscription will run for the subscription term specified in the applicable Order Form and will renew automatically for additional one-year periods unless a party provides notice of nonrenewal to the other party at least 30 days prior to expiration of the applicable term.

6.2. Termination for Cause. In addition to any other remedies it may have, either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice (or without notice in the case of nonpayment), if the other party (a) materially breaches any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 30 days after written notice describing the breach; or (b) files for bankruptcy or is the subject of an involuntary filing in bankruptcy (in the latter case, which filing is not discharged within 60 days) or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a trustee is appointed over all or a substantial portion of its assets (“Termination for Cause”). If Fivetran terminates this Agreement for Customer’s breach, Customer remains obligated to pay the balance due on Customer’s account for the remainder of the Term, computed in accordance with the applicable Order Form(s), and will be billed for such unpaid fees.

6.3. Survival. All sections of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued rights to payment, confidentiality obligations, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

If, due to a claim of infringement, the Services are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be or are believed by Fivetran to be infringing, Fivetran may, at its option and expense (x) replace or modify the Services to be non-infringing provided that such modification or replacement contains substantially similar features and functionality, (y) obtain for Customer a license to continue using the Services, or (z) if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and provide Customer a refund of any prepaid, unused fees for the Services.

8.2. By Customer.
