The 9S Platform provides a consolidated point of access to business intelligence data sourced from a range of online software applications (“Apps”) operated by third party suppliers ("App Providers").1.2 These Terms may be amended or modified at any time by posting the updated Terms and a notice of the changes at www.9spokes.com. 2. The Customer and Registration 2.1 In these Terms, "Customer" means the person (who may be a natural person, company or other legal entity capable of being a party to a contract) that registers for the right to access and use the 9S Platform.2.2 In these terms "9 Spokes" means the entity that makes the 9S Platform available for use in the Customer's country of residence for taxation purposes, which may be 9 Spokes International Limited (“9 Spokes International”), a New Zealand registered company (Company number 3538758), 9 Spokes Australia Pty Limited, an Australian registered company (ABN 23 169 029 001), 9 Spokes UK Limited, a company registered in England and Wales, or any current or future company related to any of these entities.2.3 Registration by a Customer to access and use the 9S Platform must be performed by:(a) if the Customer is an individual, the Customer personally, or by a person authorised to enter into this contract on the Customer's behalf (such as an employee of the Customer, or the Customer's accountant or other professional service provider acting for the Customer), in which case, that person warrants to 9 Spokes that they have and hold all authority necessary to execute this contract on behalf the Customer; or(b) if the Customer is a company or other legal entity, a person authorised to enter into this contract on the Company's behalf (such as a company director or secretary, a duly authorised employee, or a duly authorised third party service provider), in which case, that person warrants to 9 Spokes that they have and hold all authority necessary to execute this contract on behalf the Customer.2.4 Following registration, the Customer will be provided with an account on the 9S Platform ("9S Account") which may be customised for the Customer, 3. Users 3.1 In these Terms, "User" means a person who is authorised by the Customer to access and use the 9S Account. Unless otherwise stated in these Terms, a User may be any person acting on behalf of the Customer, including any employee, contractor or any provider of professional or other services (such as an accountant, consultant, bookkeeper or IT services supplier). For the avoidance of doubt, the person who completes the registration of the Customer is typically also the first User of the Customer's 9S Account.3.2 The Customer (or duly authorised representative of the Customer) may authorise any person to be a User.3.3 The Customer acknowledges that by its Users using the 9S Platform after registration, the Customer verifies its ongoing agreement to these Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Customer's registration for access and use of the 9S Platform was performed on the Customer's behalf by another person, the Customer will be deemed to be bound by these Terms if its Users use the 9S Platform after registration, even if the person who performed the Customer's original registration was not fully authorised to bind the Customer to these Terms.3.4 If a User does not accept these Terms, they must immediately stop their use of the 9S Platform and advise the Customer that they have done so. 4. Fees and invoicing 4.1 Prior to the Customer acquiring any part of the 9S Platform in respect of which fees are payable, 9 Spokes will give notice to the Customer that invoices will be issued.4.2 9 Spokes may issue to Customer invoices for any fees payable arising from the use of Apps with the 9S Platform.4.3 All issued invoices must be paid on the invoice due date.4.4 Customer must pay all taxes applicable to the supply of the 9S Platform to Customer (such as GST, VAT or other sales tax).

Support services 5.1 9 Spokes will make reasonable commercial efforts to resolve any problem with the 9S Platform of which it becomes aware within a reasonable time.5.2 The Customer and all Users acknowledge that 9 Spokes has no responsibility for any maintenance or support of any App. Any problems, defects or issues with an App are the sole responsibility of the App Provider.

For clarity, the purposes Anonymous Data may be used for include statistical analysis, aggregation with other data, supply to third parties (including in exchange for payment or other commercial benefit to 9 Spokes), benchmarking, publication and for the display through widgets to any user of the 9S Platform (including users unrelated to the Customer). 12. Usage Restrictions and Availability 12.1 The Customer and each User acknowledge that: (a) the internet is a public communications network that cannot be controlled by 9 Spokes or any App Provider, and interruptions or disruptions to the operation of any part of the internet may cause the supply of the 9S Platform to be delayed or not to be delivered;(b) access and use of the 9S Platform may be interrupted at any time for any reason and without notice;(c) while 9 Spokes will attempt to provide reasonable notice of any planned maintenance or other event that is expected to disrupt or interrupt the 9S Platform, 9 Spokes is not required to provide such notice;(d) 9 Spokes will have no liability for any delay, failure or error in any part of the 9S Platform; and(e) they use the 9S Platform at their own risk, and 9 Spokes will have no liability to them arising from any loss or damage caused by any reliance upon the 9S Platform. 13.

The privacy of all individuals for which 9 Spokes is a data controller is of great importance to 9 Spokes, and the Customer, and/or any of its impacted personnel who provide Personal Data to 9 Spokes must carefully read the terms of 9 Spokes’ Privacy Notice which will apply wherever the Customer uses 9 Spokes’ services.13.5 Where 9 Spokes processes any Personal Data on the Customer’s behalf or instruction, 9 Spokes will be a data processor over such Personal Data. Where we do so, a Data Protection Addendum to these Terms will set out the terms applicable to 9 Spokes’ processing activities as a data processor as well as the: types of Personal Data; the categories of data subject which will be processed; the nature and purpose of processing; and the duration of processing.13.6 The Customer acknowledges that the 9S Platform relies on systems and services supplied by third parties, and, in accordance with the 9 Spokes’ Privacy Notice and Data Protection Addendum (as applicable), 9 Spokes may supply Customer Data (in the case of Personal Data in accordance with clause 13.2) to these third party suppliers to the extent necessary to properly supply the 9S Platform.13.7 9 Spokes will in accordance with the 9 Spokes’ Privacy Notice 9 Spokes Privacy Notice (where 9 Spokes is a data controller) and the Data Protection Addendum (where 9 Spokes is a data processor):(a) comply at all times with applicable privacy and data protection laws;(b) take all reasonable steps to protect the security and integrity of (i) information that can be used to establish the identity of an individual, (ii) sensitive information about an individual and (iii) Customer Data; and(c) take reasonable steps to notify the Customer if 9 Spokes becomes aware of any disclosure of: (i) Customer Data or other data that can be used to establish the identity of an individual, or (ii) sensitive information about an individual that is associated with the Customer. 14.
