6. FEES AND TAXES


6.1 Fees and Payment.

Customer will pay fees as stated in the Order Form. Customer will be invoiced on Start Date (as provided in the applicable Order Form) for Year One. For each Subsequent Year and Renewal Term (if any), Customer will be invoiced in advance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, by electing credit card payment and inputting its billing and credit card information into the KNOIGE system (via a link sent by KNOIGE), Customer's credit card on file will be charged in advance the annual fees for the Subscription Term (including any agreed-to renewal term), provided that Customer remains responsible for fees. KNOIGE will also invoice Customer (or if applicable, charge Customer's credit card) at the time Customer adds any enhanced or additional LMSs. KNOIGE may provide invoices to an email address provided by Customer. Fees for non- recurring services will be invoiced by KNOIGE on a one- time basis and paid by Customer upon commencement of the Subscription Term. Customer will reimburse KNOIGE for all pre-approved (by Customer) and appropriately documented travel and related expenses incurred by KNOIGE in performing any support for the LMS. After prior written notice, KNOIGE may suspend Customer's use of the LMS until payment is made. Customer cannot withhold, reduce or set-off fees owed nor reduce Usage Metrics during the Subscription Term. All Order Forms are non-cancellable and fees non-refundable.


6.2 Excess Use

Customer's use of the LMS is subject to the Agreement, including the Usage Metrics and their volume stated in the Order Form. Any use of the LMS that exceeds this scope will be subject to additional fees. Fees accrue from the date the excess use began. KNOIGE may invoice and Customer will pay for excess use based on applicable pricing in the Order Form.

Customer will execute an additional Order Form to document subscriptions for additional Usage Metrics and their volume.


6.3 Taxes.

Fees and other charges imposed under an Order Form will not include taxes, all of which will be for Customer's account. Customer is responsible for all taxes, other than KNOIGE' income and payroll taxes. Customer must provide to KNOIGE any direct pay permits or valid tax-exempt certificates prior to signing an Order Form. If KNOIGE is required to pay taxes (other than its income and payroll taxes), Customer will reimburse KNOIGE for those amounts and indemnify KNOIGE for any taxes and related costs paid or payable by KNOIGE attributable to those taxes.


6.4 Fee Increases

At the beginning of each renewal term, KNOIGE may increase fees to reflect annual increases in consumer prices or costs. This increase will not exceed the greater of the percentage stated in the most recent consumer price index selected by KNOIGE or 3.3% per annum. The increase is applied on a cumulative, year-over-year basis beginning on either the start of the preceding term or date of last increase, whichever is later. Not raising fees is not a waiver of KNOIGE' right to do so. KNOIGE may increase fees if Customer elects to reduce the LMS, Usage Metrics or volume for any renewal term.


6.5 Payment

Customer will pay to KNOIGE all fees due within thirty (30) days of date of invoice. Unpaid fees will accrue interest at the maximum legal rate. Customer purchase orders are for administrative convenience and not a condition of payment. Payment is not dependent upon completion of any implementation or other services.
