We will use our reasonable endeavours to give you as much notice as reasonably possible of our prices upon expiry of your 12 Month Subscription Term.
6.4. You acknowledge and agree that we may change the prices we charge for your use of Final Accounts, Corporation Tax Returns or Personal Tax Returns at any time. We will use our reasonable endeavours to give you as much notice as is reasonably possible of any such changes.

"Bank Feeds Service" has the meaning given to it in the Appendix to the Accounting Terms of Use. The Bank Feeds Service is included as part of your subscription to Accounting or Accounting Start.
6.6. You acknowledge that due to the variety and differing requirements of online banking security arrangements, you will procure that where your clients require the Bank Feeds Service they: (a) will ensure that their online banking facility is compatible with the Bank Feeds Service; (b) are solely responsible for ensuring that they sign up to and use the Bank Feeds Service in full compliance with the terms and conditions of their applicable online banking facility; (c) enter into such third party terms and conditions that we may provide to them during the sign up process for the Bank Feeds Service; and (d) do not disclose their internet banking credentials to you or any other third party which would render them in breach of their online banking facility.

7. Price and payment method
7.1. You acknowledge that we are moving to a direct billing subscription model for our products and in order to facilitate this model, we are making some changes to the way we pay you for those clients for whom you introduce, set up (or have set up) and administer an Accounting account.
7.2. For each new client you introduce to and set up and administer an Accounting account through Sage Accountant Cloud, you may: (i) procure for that client to pay us directly (rather than pay you) in full for all applicable fees for that account, in accordance with such instructions as we may provide to you from time to time (" Direct Billing Customers"); or (ii) those new clients may pay you directly for their use of Accounting (in the same way as your existing customers pay you pursuant to clause 7.3 below). Where (ii) applies, your client will not be eligible for a free trial of Accounting. If you do not elect how your new client will pay, they will automatically be set up as a Direct Billing Customer and in these circumstances, your client will be entitled to receive a free trial if requested.
7.3. You will continue to invoice your existing clients for whom you have already set up and administer Accounting accounts via your Sage Accountant Cloud and you will continue to pay us in full for all applicable fees for those accounts until such time as we may advise you that those existing clients will pay us directly for their use of Accounting. We will pay you Commission (as defined in clause 7.6 below) for Direct Billing Customers as well as for your existing clients and your new clients who pay you directly for their use of Accounting (rather than paying us) pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this clause 7 (even though this clause 7 refers to Direct Billing Customers) and such instructions as we may issue to you from time to time. If those clients pay us directly (rather than paying you), those clients will then become (and will be known as) Direct Billing Customers.
7.4. For a client who subscribes to more than one Accounting application, the same billing model must be adopted for that client's use of Accounting. By this we mean that your client would either: (a) pay you for their entire use of the Accounting applications and you would pay us for their use pursuant to clause 7.3; or (b) they would pay us for their entire use of the Accounting applications as a Direct Billing Customer.
7.5. You acknowledge and agree that your clients cannot use a different billing model to pay for different Accounting applications. However, you may have clients on different billing models with some clients paying you for their use of Accounting applications and your other clients paying us for their use of Accounting applications as a Direct Billing Customer.
Calculation and Payment of Commission
7.6. For each Direct Billing Customer that you introduce (or have introduced in the case of an existing client (or will introduce pursuant to clause 7.2(ii) above) ) to Accounting and which are linked to your Sage Accountant Cloud account, we will pay you a commission which we will calculate as a percentage (such percentage to be notified to you in writing from time to time) of the Net Monthly Fee paid to us by the Direct Billing Customer for their use of Accounting (" Commission"). "Net Monthly Fee" means in relation to Accounting, the price actually charged by us to the Direct Billing Customer after any discounts or other deductions and less any VAT (as defined below) or other sales tax. Commission is not payable in respect of any use by a client of Accounting where that use is free of charge and we will give you 30 days' notice in writing of any changes to the percentage of Commission payable to you.
7.7. Any and all Commission due to you shall be accrued monthly but shall be paid to you quarterly in arrears in accordance with this clause 7 (unless we advise you of such other billing periods). We will advise you in writing of the quarterly periods which we will use to calculate the Commission payable to you for the Direct Billing Customers.
7.8. We will pay you Commission only in respect of cleared funds that we have received from the Direct Billing Customer for their use of Accounting (and only in respect of revenue we have been able to recognise in accordance with our accounting rules and standards). Payment will be made via electronic transfer to such bank account as you may notify to us in writing from time to time and payment shall be made within 15 days of the end of each quarter unless we notify you otherwise.
7.9. We may, at any time and without notice, set off any liability of yours (including, without limitation, any outstanding balances you may owe to us) from the Commission and whether that liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated, and whether or not it arises under this Agreement. Any exercise by us of our rights under this clause shall not limit or affect any other rights or remedies available to us under this Agreement or otherwise.
Restrictions around the Payment of Commission
7.10. We will only pay you Commission for so long as a Direct Billing Customer: (i) remains an active client of yours; and (ii) that client continues to pay their subscription fee in full for their use of Accounting. By an "active client of yours" we mean those clients using Accounting whom you introduced to and are linked to your Sage Accountant Cloud account.
We do not mean those clients who signed up directly to Accounting and then subsequently linked to your Sage Accountants Cloud account. Once a Direct Billing Customer is no longer an active client of yours and/or they are no longer paying (or have failed to pay) for their use of Accounting, you will no longer be entitled to receive Commission for that Direct Billing Customer.
7.11. If, during any quarter, a Direct Billing Customer fails to pay their subscription fee for their use of Accounting and/or their agreement with us to use Accounting is terminated, your entitlement to Commission will be calculated on a pro rata basis for that quarter (the " final Commission payment"). You will not be entitled to receive any further Commission for that Direct Billing Customer once you have received the final Commission payment and this will apply even where that customer subsequently recommences the payment of its subscription fee to use Accounting.
Self-Billing and VAT
7.12. Unless we advise you otherwise, if you are VAT registered you will only be entitled to receive Commission if you have entered into and maintain a valid self-billing agreement with us for VAT purposes. This is because we will pay you Commission against a self-billing VAT invoice which we will raise on your behalf. We will provide you with a self-billing agreement (including, without limitation, any renewals of that agreement) which you must sign and return to us in such form (and in accordance with such instructions) as we may provide you from time to time.
7.13. Where you are VAT registered (and unless we have advised you otherwise), you understand and agree that in order for us to calculate and pay you Commission during any quarter we must have a valid and binding self-billing agreement in place between us. This means that we will not be required to pay you any Commission which accrues during a period where we have no self-billing agreement in place.
7.14. If you are VAT registered, you will provide us with your VAT registration number and such other information as we may reasonably require in the performance of our obligations under this Agreement and you will advise us immediately in writing if there is any change to your VAT registration number or your VAT status.
7.15. If you are not VAT registered, we will pay you Commission at the end of each quarter in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If, at any time, you become VAT registered you will notify us in writing within 7 days of making that registration and you will promptly enter into a self-billing agreement with us pursuant to clauses 7.10 and 7.13 above to enable us to pay you Commission.
Payment Terms
7.16. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by us, you will pay our fees and other prices and charges in advance and by monthly direct debit or within 30 days of the date of any invoice we issue in respect of such fees, prices and charges incurred during the previous month.
7.17. We may amend our prices and payment terms (including individual credit terms) from time to time in our absolute discretion and we will take reasonable steps to notify you in advance of any price increases or changes to credit terms.
7.18. All amounts payable under this Agreement will be:
7.18.1. paid in pounds sterling (where you subscribe to the Sage Accountants Cloud in the UK) or Euros (where you subscribe in the Republic of Ireland); and
7.18.2. exclusive of value added tax ("VAT") or similar sales tax, which if applicable and subject to receipt of a valid VAT invoice you shall pay, as well as all other duties, charges and taxes (if any) which shall be paid at the rate and in the manner for the time being prescribed by law.
7.19. While you understand that we have other rights and remedies, you agree that if any payment due to us is paid after the due date, we may charge you interest on a daily basis at the rate of 4% above the base rate of Lloyds Bank plc if you subscribe to the Sage Accountant Cloud in the UK (or The Bank of Ireland if you subscribe in the Republic of Ireland) from time to time in force, and from the due date until the date of actual payment. Interest shall accrue before as well as after judgment and in respect of any part payment. You agree to reimburse us for any costs (including our own and any third party costs) we incur in recovering any outstanding sums due to us from you.7.20. All payments you make to us under this Agreement will be made in full without any set-off, restriction or condition and without any deduction or withholding, unless you are required by law to make any such deduction or withholding.
7.21. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy we may have, if you fail to make any payment in accordance with this
Agreement or fail to perform any other obligation to us, we:
7.21.1. may at our option and upon written notice terminate this Agreement or suspend performance of our obligations under this Agreement until such time that you make payment or perform such obligation in full; and
7.21.2. reserve the right to access your account and delink any and all of your clients from your Sage Accountant Cloud as set out in clause 5.4 and provide Accounting to these clients directly at our discretion. If we elect to take this action you will not be entitled to Commission for these clients from and including the date we delink them.
7.22. You agree to provide us with complete and accurate billing and contact information, and shall promptly notify Sage of any change to this information.
7.23. If funds are unavailable from your account on the due date for payment and/or any amount owing by you under this Agreement or any other agreement for our services is [10] or more days overdue, we may, without limiting our other rights and remedies, accelerate your unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and/or suspend your access to the Services for you until such amounts are paid in full. We will give you at least [5] days' prior notice that your account is overdue before suspending the Service to you.

If you end this Agreement pursuant to this clause 14.2, you will not be entitled to receive a refund for any fees you have paid in advance and you agree to pay all sums due to us under this Agreement which are due and payable up to and including the date of termination (and this will include, without limitation, payment by you of all fees due for your clients who have an Accounting account during the month of termination). Once this Agreement ends you will not be entitled to receive any further Commission but we will pay you any Commission which is properly due to you up to and including the date of termination of this Agreement. We will make this payment to you in accordance with clause 7 above.
14.3. We may end this Agreement at any time upon 30 days' written notice and, in such circumstances, we will repay to you any sums you have paid to us in respect of any unexpired portion of your subscription period for your Sage Accountant Cloud (and for Final Accounts, Sage Corporation Tax Online and Personal Tax Returns (where applicable)) calculated from the date of termination.
14.4. If you or we discover that the other has done something which is not allowed by this Agreement, or has not done something that must be done, the one making such discovery can give the other written notice that the matter must be put right within 30 days. If the matter is put right in that time, no further action will be taken. If it is not put right in that time, the person who made the discovery may end this Agreement upon giving the other notice in writing.

This Agreement will automatically (i.e. without us having to tell you) and immediately end without refund if you become bankrupt (or something similar happens) or your business is unable to pay its debts, stops trading or becomes insolvent (or something similar happens), or if the other party suspends or ceases, or threatens to suspend or cease, to trade. In those circumstances, we will have no further obligation to you and any monies due from you will become immediately due and payable to us in full.
14.6. Where we suspend or terminate your access to your Sage Accountant Cloud in accordance with this Agreement, we may at our discretion agree to reactivate your account subject to you paying to us a reactivation fee.
14.7. On termination of this Agreement for any reason, (i) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the Agreement which existed at or before termination shall not be affected or prejudiced; and (ii), each party shall, at the request of the other party, destroy all materials that may contain the other party's Confidential Information and/or (to the extent legally and technically practicable) erase the other party's Confidential Information from all computer and communication devices used by it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may retain the other party's Confidential Information to the extent required by law or any applicable governmental or regulatory authority.
14.8. Any provision of this Agreement that expressly or by implication is intended to come into or continue in force on or after termination or expiry of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
14.9. Suspension for non-payment. If funds are unavailable from your account on the due date for payment and/or any amount owing by you under this Agreement or any other agreement for our services is 10 or more days overdue, we may, without limiting our other rights and remedies, accelerate your unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and/or suspend your access to the Services for you until such amounts are paid in full. We will give you at least 5 days' prior notice that your account is overdue before suspending services to you.

18. Confidentiality
18.1. Definition of Confidential Information. Subject to clause 18.2, "Confidential Information" means all information of a party ("Disclosing Party") disclosed to the other party ("Receiving Party"), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure, including the terms of this Agreement, the Customer Data, the Service, business and marketing plans, pricing and payment information, technology and technical information, product designs, and business processes.

18.3. Confidentiality Obligations. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care as it uses for its own confidential information of like nature, but no less than commercially reasonable care, to protect the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information from any use or disclosure not permitted by this Agreement or authorized by the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information to its employees, Affiliates and service providers who need access to such Confidential Information in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, provided that they are bound by confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than those in the Agreement.

If the changes have a material adverse impact on and are not acceptable to you, then you must notify Sage within 30 days after receiving notice of the change. If Sage cannot accommodate your objection, then the prior terms shall remain in force until the expiration of your then current subscription period. Any renewed subscription will be governed by Sage's then current terms.

21.14. If you or we fail to, or delay in, exercising any rights under this Agreement, that will not mean that those rights cannot be exercised in the future.
21.15. This Agreement is personal to you and may not be assigned, subcontracted, licensed (including sub-licensed), charged or otherwise dealt with or disposed of (whether in whole or in part) by you without our prior written consent.
