PAYMENT OF FEES.

Subscriber will pay UPSWIFT the then applicable fees described in the Fee Schedule and Order for the Subscription Service and Professional Services in accordance with the terms therein (the “Fees”). Additionally, if Subscriber’s use of the Subscription Service exceeds the service capacity set forth on the Order or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees (per the terms of this Agreement), Subscriber shall be billed for such excess usage and Subscriber agrees to pay the additional fees in the manner provided herein, and at the price set forth in the Order.

If Subscriber believes that UPSWIFT has billed Subscriber incorrectly, Subscriber must contact UPSWIFT no later than thirty (30) days after the closing date on the first billing statement in which the error or problem appeared, in order to receive an adjustment or credit. Except for the foregoing adjustment or credit, all payments are final and non-refundable. Subscriber acknowledges that the Fees are based on Subscriber’s access requirements as provided to UPSWIFT by Subscriber.

Subject to earlier termination as provided below, this Agreement is for the initial service term as specified in the Order, and, unless otherwise provided in an Order, shall be automatically renewed for additional periods equal to the initial service term (collectively, the “Term”) at UPSWIFT’s then current prices, unless either party requests termination prior to the end of the then-current term.
