AGREEMENT

 

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and for good and valuable consideration, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

  1. SERVICES

 

  • “Services” means those services provided by the Company to the Client under a Statement of Work. Each Statement of Work shall be governed by, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement.  To the extent of any conflict between this Agreement and a Statement of Work, this Agreement shall supersede the Statement of Work to the extent of such conflict unless the Statement of Work Parties expressly provide to the contrary in the applicable Statement of Work.

  • Each Statement of Work and any modification(s) thereto shall be signed by an authorized representative of each of the Parties before the Company shall have any obligation to perform thereunder.

 

  • The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide qualified Assigned Personnel in connection with each Statement of Work. Should any Assigned Personnel be unable to perform the Services because of illness, resignation or other causes beyond the Company’s reasonable control, the Company will use reasonable efforts to replace such Assigned Provider Personnel within a reasonable time but shall have no other liability to Client.  The Company warrants that it will perform all Services in a manner consistent with generally accepted industry practices applicable to such Services.  “Assigned Personnel” means persons or entities placed or assigned by the Company to perform services for or on behalf of Client, provided that such placement or assignment shall be governed by the terms and conditions of an applicable Statement of Work.

 

  • For purposes herein, (i) “Affiliate” means any other entity Controlling, Controlled by, or under common Control with the Company or Client, as applicable. “Control” and its derivatives (including, but not limited to, the terms “Controlling” and “Controlled by”) shall mean: (a) the legal, beneficial, or equitable ownership, directly or indirectly, of (1) greater than 50% of the aggregate of all voting interests in an entity, or (2) equity interests having the right to greater than 50% of the profits of an entity or, in the event of dissolution, to greater than 50% of the assets of an entity; (b) the right to appoint, directly or indirectly, a majority of the board of directors or similar governing board; or (c) the right or power to control, directly or indirectly, the management or direction of the entity by contract or corporate governance document; (ii) “Statement of Work” means a legally binding document that describes the Services to be performed by the  Company for the Client, and which expressly references this Agreement.  The Statement of Work may contain other terms and conditions between the Parties, including, but not limited to, payment terms.

 

 

  1. FEES, EXPENSES AND INVOICING

 

  • In exchange for the Services, and as more particularly described in each Statement of Work, Client shall pay the Company the fees and other compensation or amounts set forth therein. To the extent any Statement of Work fails to specify the fees and other compensation or amounts due in exchange for the provision of the Services set forth therein, such fees, compensation or other amounts due shall be reasonable and determined by the Company after consultation with the Client.  Except as otherwise provided in a Statement of Work, (i) Client shall reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in connection with the Services to be provided thereunder, and (ii) fees and other compensation or amounts (including, but not limited to, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) will be invoiced monthly and shall be due and payable in full within thirty (30) Days of the date of each invoice, without deduction or setoff.  All invoices that are not timely paid shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, or to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower.  As used hereinafter, “Days” shall refer to calendar days.

 

  • Client shall pay any excise, sales, use, intangibles, property or other taxes, fees, and other charges and surcharges imposed upon the Company pursuant to any applicable law, rule, regulation or other requirement of law which results from, or is based upon, the provision of the Services by the Company to the Client under a Statement of Work (collectively the “Pass-Through Taxes/Fees/Charges”). For purposes of clarity, Pass-Through Taxes/Fees/Charges shall not include taxes based on the Company’s revenue, profit or income.  The Company will invoice the Client for any Pass-Through Taxes/Fees/Charges, which shall be due within thirty (30) Days of invoice unless otherwise specified in such invoice.

 

  • Client acknowledges and agrees that until any and all past due invoices are paid in full, including any interest assessed thereon and any Pass-Through Taxes/Fees/Charges set forth therein, the Company shall have the right, upon notice to the Client, to immediately suspend and/or terminate the Services and any work in progress under the Statement of Work for which the invoice is past due, in addition to such other remedies it may have at law, in equity or elsewhere in this Agreement. Any such suspension and/or termination shall not relieve the Client of its obligation to pay all charges, fees, and other amounts due that accrued prior to such suspension and/or termination, and such suspension and/or termination shall not result in any liability whatsoever to Company or its Affiliates.

 

  • Client acknowledges and agrees that where tax on the Services is required to be imposed by the Malaysian Sales Tax Act 2018 and/or Malaysian Service Tax Act 2018 or such other applicable and relevant legislation and/or regulations, the relevant rate of tax may be imposed on the fees and other compensation or amounts set forth therein payable to Company.

 

 

  • Client must notify the Company within ten (10) Days of the date an invoice is submitted to Client regarding any bona fide disputed amounts charged to the Client in such invoice (the “10-Day Notice Period”). Failure to notify the Company within the 10-Day Notice Period shall constitute acceptance of all amounts charged to Client in such invoice, and a waiver of any billing disputes thereunder.  Provided notice of a billing dispute is given within the 10-Day Notice Period, the Company and the Client shall work together in good faith to resolve any such dispute.  To the extent any billing disputes remain unresolved past the invoice due date, Section 2.3 shall apply.

 

  • In the event that Client directly hires any Assigned Personnel as an employee or contractor (“Direct Hire”), Client shall pay to Company a placement fee (“Placement Fee”) in form of a percentage of Assigned Personnel’s first year base salary as set forth below in the Conversion Schedule.

  • For purposes of clarity, not limitation, the rights set forth in this Section 3 above are in addition to any other rights or remedies set forth in this Agreement or under applicable law, and the exercise of the rights set forth in this Section 3 above shall not constitute an election of remedies.
