MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT
This Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) shall govern the provision of services to the undersigned client (the “Client”) by Heaviside Group LLC (“Agency”), DBA Heaviside Digital. Additional terms, such as the services and deliverables provided hereunder, the schedule for the delivery thereof, and the amount of fees payable, therefore, are set forth on the appropriate Schedule of Work (the “SOW”), which is hereby incorporated herein by this reference and Agency may, from time to time, amend. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any SOW and this Agreement, the terms of the Agreement shall control.
1. ADDITIONAL SERVICES, PROJECT CHANGES
Any services outside the scope of the SOW or changes to previously approved work requested by the Client shall be the subject of an additional SOW or Change of Scope to be approved in writing by both parties. Each additional SOW or Change of Scope is hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
2. EXPENSES
Client will be notified in advance for pre-approval of any additional expenses over those set forth on the SOW. At Agency’s discretion, Client shall either pay such fees directly to the third-party vendor or reimburse Agency therefore upon presentation of applicable invoices. Agency shall maintain records of expenses.
3. TIME OF PAYMENT AND LATE-PAYMENT CHARGES
The Client shall pay Agency for the work performed hereunder as set forth on the applicable SOW. In no event will any payment under this Agreement be contingent on receipt of any monies or other compensation by the Client. For the avoidance of doubt, fees or commissions payable to Agency for media planning and buying services are in addition to, and not inclusive of, Agency’s fees for other services which may be listed in the SOW, such as design, branding, hosting, and content distribution and syndication. Delays resulting from the action or inaction of Client may result in an adjustment in fees by Agency, subject to Client approval. Each invoice hereunder is due and payable within 15 days after its invoice date. All rights of the Client herein are conditioned on Agency’s receipt of full payment.
In addition, Agency may suspend performance of services and withhold delivery of materials until payment in full of all amounts due – including taking the Client website offline. Agency shall not be liable for any damages, losses or liabilities that may arise out of Agency’s suspension of performance and/or withholding of materials due to Client’s non-payment.
Late payments may accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% per month. Agency shall be entitled to all of its costs of collection of amounts outstanding hereunder, including without limitation, the fees of its attorneys.
Client agrees to mediate service delivery disputes with the Agency and establish an updated agreement with a SOW. Agency will contest chargeback fraud in all cases where Agency has followed SOW terms and will pursue attorney and all other applicable fees in addition to the fraudulent chargeback amount plus interest.
4. CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE
In order to avoid miscommunication, the Client shall appoint a sole representative with full authority to provide or maintain any necessary information and approvals that may be required by Agency (the “Client Representative”). Unless the Client notifies Agency otherwise, Agency shall assume the Client Representative is the person with whom Agency corresponds. The Client Representative shall be responsible for timely coordination and review of the Agency’s services and notifying Agency of Client instructions, change orders and approvals. The signature or e-mail approval of the Client Representative shall be final and binding on Client. If after the Client Representative has approved a design, the Client or any authorized person alters the scope of work or requires additional services, the Client shall pay all fees and expenses arising from such changes and additional services as set forth in section 1 above.
5. OBLIGATIONS AND MATERIALS
The Agency’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement may be dependent on the Client fulfilling its obligations. The Agency shall not be liable for any costs, charges or losses sustained by the Client arising directly from any failure of the Client to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.
Client’s failure to fulfill obligations such as providing access to necessary systems, accounts, platforms, or any other relevant material shall not delay billing on subscription plans, and the Agency shall continue to perform work at its sole discretion.
Client’s failure to respond to Agency communications shall not delay billing on subscription plans, and the Agency shall continue to perform work at its sole discretion.
All copy provided by the Client shall be in electronic format such as email or a Microsoft Word document. Where photographs, illustrations or other visual materials are provided by the Client, they shall be of professional quality and in a form suitable for reproduction without further preparation or alteration. The Client shall pay all fees and expenses required to bring nonconforming materials up to such standards.
The Client warrants that all assets, concepts, materials, specifications, information and instructions provided by Client or its agents may be exploited pursuant to this Agreement and any applicable Statement of Work, including on the Internet, without violating any laws and without violating or infringing any rights of any third parties.

6. APPROVAL OF WORK
Work shall not commence until the initial payment has been received at the Agency’s sole discretion. Within two business days following receipt of any deliverables, the Client will provide Agency with either (a) written approval and acceptance of such deliverable (which will not be unreasonably withheld), or (b) a written list of reasonable modification guidelines that will bring the deliverables into compliance with the SOW. Each deliverable hereunder will be deemed accepted by the Client if, within two business days of its delivery to the Client, the Agency does not receive the foregoing written notice.
The Client’s written approval of any deliverables, materials, plans or other Work created or produced by the Agency in the course of the provision of the Services, or any cost estimate, will constitute the Agency’s authority to purchase, publish, and make contracts for talent, space, time and other facilities and otherwise to do any other act or thing which the Agency considers it reasonable to do in order to carry out its obligations under this Agreement or any Statement of Work.
The Agency will not be obliged to commit to any expenditure on behalf of the Client without first receiving written confirmation of the Client’s instructions and the Agency will not be responsible for the consequences of any delay on the part of the Client in providing such written confirmation.
7. SUPPLIERS
Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement or agreed by the parties in writing, the Agency’s contracts with suppliers in respect of the Services shall be made in accordance with suppliers’ standard terms or such other terms as the Agency is able to negotiate with the relevant supplier.
The Agency shall act as principal in all such contracts, but all rights and liabilities as between the Client and the Agency shall correspond to those between the Agency and the various suppliers under such conditions, including in particular any service levels and any rights of amendment, omission and cancellation. The Agency shall use reasonable efforts to procure best commercial terms for the Client, and on the Client’s written request the Agency shall supply the Client with the relevant terms and conditions.
Notwithstanding the above, unless the parties agree to different arrangements in writing, the Agency shall negotiate with any talent or celebrities (if applicable) on behalf of the Client, but the Client shall contract with such suppliers directly in order to derive maximum benefit from the relationship.
8. LEGAL CLEARANCES
The Client is responsible for obtaining all legal clearances required for the performance of services hereunder. The Client shall indemnify, defend (at its own cost and expense) and hold Agency and its officers, employees and agents harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, damages, losses and expenses arising from any breach, misrepresentation or other act or omission of the Client.

Agency shall not be held responsible for delays or nonperformance caused by activities or factors beyond its reasonable control, including delays and nonperformance caused by viruses, denial of service attacks, other acts or omissions by third parties, Internet service providers, the Client or its contractors, strikes, lockouts, work slowdowns or stoppages, accidents, fires, acts of God, terrorism, failure by the Client to timely furnish information or approve or disapprove work, or faulty performance by the Client or others, including third-party contractors hired by Agency or by Client.

Unless the parties agree otherwise in a written and signed Statement of Work, Agency shall retain ownership of any and all Background Technology, including any and all associated intellectual property rights. Agency hereby grants to Client a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform Agency’s Background Technology, in compiled machine readable object code form only, to the extent incorporated into deliverables provided hereunder strictly for the purposes and in the territories set out in the applicable Statement of Work.

(d) If the Client desires to utilize any of the Work, whether accepted or rejected by the Client hereunder, for any marketing campaign, promotion, product, service, advertisement or any other purpose outside the scope of this Agreement, then the Client shall hire Agency to design, create, develop, market and otherwise implement such work. The Client may solicit or hire a third party to implement such Work if, and only if, Agency declines to do so and such third party is hired on terms in no way more beneficial than the terms first offered to Agency.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 11, Agency grants Client the limited, exclusive, irrevocable right to use the Designs as set forth in any SOW.
12. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES
Agency is an independent contractor. Agency shall determine, in its sole discretion, the manner and means by which the Services are accomplished. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by this Agreement. Neither party is authorized to act as agent or bind the other party except as expressly stated in this Agreement. Agency and the work product or deliverables prepared by Agency shall not be deemed a work for hire as defined under Copyright Law. All rights granted to Client are contractual in nature and are expressly defined by this Agreement.
Agency shall be allowed to use third parties as independent contractors in connection with the services (“Design Agents”). Agency shall remain fully responsible for Design Agents’ compliance with this Agreement.
This Agreement does not create an exclusive relationship between the parties. Client is free to engage others to perform services of the same or similar nature to those provided by Agency, and Agency shall be entitled to offer and provide design services to others, solicit other clients and otherwise advertise the services offered by Agency.

Upon termination (as defined in Section 14 below) the Client will have up to the termination date to transfer their hosted website to their own hosting (“Client hosting”). Agency will provide notice upon termination that Client must provide access to Client hosting promptly so that Agency can facilitate the website transfer. If Client fails to provide such access, the Client will be placed on a hosting-only plan and billed $50 per month for website hosting until the website is moved to Client-provided hosting. This hosting plan will bill on day 1 following the termination of the Agreement, and will recur monthly until cancelled. The amount due shall not be prorated upon cancellation.
If Client fails to pay the website hosting for any reason, the website may be removed from Agency hosting immediately, and the website files shall be transmitted electronically to the Client.

Either party may terminate this Agreement for any reason upon giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the other. This notice must be given by email to the Agency, or by letter mailed to an address determined solely by the Agency and available to the Client upon request. The termination date shall be 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of notice, with “day 1” to be the day after notice.
Upon termination of this Agreement by Client without Agency’s fault or consent, Client shall pay Agency, in addition to all of the fees earned by Agency pursuant to the terms hereof, an early termination fee as specified on the SOW, plus any and all expenses and third-party costs reasonably incurred by Agency through the effective date of cancellation. At Agency’s election, Client’s delay of work under this Agreement for a cumulative period of more than 30 days without Agency’s fault or consent shall be considered a termination of this Agreement by Client within the meaning of the immediately preceding sentence.
If Client desires to terminate this Agreement due to Agency’s fault, Client shall give Agency written notice detailing the nature of Agency’s fault and possible remedies, whereupon Agency shall have a reasonable period of time (but in no event less than 30 days) to cure such fault. Termination by Client without providing the foregoing notice and cure period shall be considered “termination without Agency’s fault” as described above.

Each party hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts sitting in Clermont County, Ohio, or Hamilton County, Ohio for the purpose of hearing and deciding any and all disputes, claims and controversies arising out of and relating to this Agreement. The prevailing party in any such action or proceeding shall be awarded all of the costs and fees incurred by it reasonably related thereto, including the fees of its attorneys.
16. GENERAL
Failure by either party to enforce any right or seek to remedy any breach under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights nor shall a waiver by either party of default in one or more instances be construed as constituting a continuing waiver or as a waiver of any other breach.

Agency may, at any time, in our sole discretion, modify this Agreement with or without notification to the Client. Any such modification will be effective upon public posting. Client’s continued use of our Services and/or payment of invoices following any such modification constitute acceptance of these modifications.

Some law firms have started to target websites for ADA Compliance lawsuits. Therefore, Agency recommends the purchase of software to help mitigate Client risk and exposure to this practice.

Should you cancel Yelp ads and/or service with us, any unused ad spend will be refunded to you after the end of the billing month.
