This Customer Agreement – Terms of Service (“Agreement”) is between company named above (“Customer”) and Itembase Holdings Inc., a Delaware Corporation located at 2870 Peachtree Rd NW #915-8835, Atlanta, GA 30305, and entered into as of the last signature date above.

• Itembase Description.

 

Itembase has developed a platform to provide a “Service,” “Services” or “Connectivity Service” for the Commerce market to capture purchase data details from the systems Merchants (sellers of goods and services to buyers or “Consumers”) utilize, in order to make this data available to Merchant selected and participating Solution Providers (providers of applications and services).  Merchants that opt-in to participate, go through the verification steps and execute the Itembase Merchant Agreement – Terms of Service become “Certified Merchants,” which then allows Itembase to capture and make available purchase data details to Solution Providers who are Itembase’s “Customers.” 

• Commerce System: Defined as a Software System that captures and stores purchase data details on behalf of the Merchant or the Consumer or any party to the original transaction. Commerce Systems can be, but are not limited to, Shopping Carts, POS Systems, Marketplaces, Email Providers, ERP Systems or any other system that captures and/or stores purchase data details.

 

• Data Field: Defined as a predefined field that can contain one or more Data Values. Data Fields can both be found in a Database Architecture, and as an Endpoint from an Application Programming Interface (API).

 

• Data Value: Defined as the value that resides inside a Data Field in a Database or Data Payload and includes e.g. empty or null.

 

• Data Payload: Defined as the transportation vehicle that is used to transport data from one place to another. A Data Payload contains both the Data Fields and the Data Value.

 

• API: Defined in a broad sense to include both the widely used API that allows an Application to Read or Write Data, as well as Webhooks, RestHooks and similar technologies that allows to receive notifications without having to perform and read or write requests.

 

• API Call: Defined as a request to an API or a notification sent from a Webhook.

 

• Transaction: Defined as an Order, inclusive of the set of all items/line-items with associated Payloads and Payload updates processed for the sole purpose of delivering the information required for servicing a single complete Order. Exception: This Transaction definition explicitly excludes so called “Open Orders”, since they aren’t single or complete. An “Open Order” typically contains negotiated prices and minimum total quantity, while exact delivery quantities, delivery locations and delivery dates are determined by the buyer on later dates.  Itembase will count each delivery request as a Transaction in this case.

 

• Connector: Defined as a unique and specific integration for a specific application, service or business operation which requires a single set-up in a single language and no further modifications for any specific geography or other user group. It is not defined by names since a single name may contain multiple Connectors.  This is in most cases is a Customer’s choice.  Amazon, eBay, etc. provide a single interface for all Marketplaces, but Customer may for internal/operational reasons separate integration to Amazon Germany from that of Amazon USA which will become separate Connectors and charged separately.  In other cases, a single company may own multiple Marketplaces with different interfaces, and each one would become a Connector and charged separately.

 

• Instance: Defined as a unique instance, account or domain on a Commerce System. It is not defined by names since a single name may contain multiple Instances. Each Instance on the same or different System will be treated as a separate operational Instance. Magento, PrestaShop, etc. provide a single interface for all Instances, but Merchants may for internal/operational reasons separate Instances on the same PrestaShop System to run separate store-fronts on different domains with different Solutions installed which will become separate Instance and treated separately.  In other cases, a single Merchant may own multiple Marketplace Stores on e.g. Ebay with different accounts or domains, and each one would become an Instance and treated separately.

• Service Description.

• Itembase Services. The purpose of the Itembase Service is to provide the Commerce market with a single access point that connects to the systems Merchants utilize to sell to Consumers (business or individuals that purchase goods or services from Merchants) so purchase data detail can be made available to Solution Providers, who are Itembase’s Customers. This simplifies the process for Solution Providers in shipping, financial services, accounting firms, etc. to interface with Merchants, which makes more applications and services available for Merchants. The Itembase Service consists of access to and use of API’s, together with any accompanying or related documentation, executable applications and other materials and any updates, patches, bug fixes, or modifications made to any of the foregoing, as made generally available by us to participating Customers and Merchants from time to time.  The Itembase Service can be activated upon request by Customer. Detailed descriptions of the available Itembase Services are available at the Itembase Services Description in Exhibit A. All Professional Services are subject to the Itembase Professional Services Terms.

• API Limits: Customer is responsible for notifying Itembase in writing about API Limits for each of its Accounts and Agreements with the Commerce Systems before a Service can be activated. Itembase can increase the limits of API Calls per second based on Customers Agreements with the Commerce Systems and according to the need of Customer. Customer is responsible for notifying Itembase in writing if the overall usage at any point in time exceeds the Customers limitations of API Calls and System Requests on a Commerce System. Customer is responsible for incorporating processes that ensure neither any Service, IP or other System of Itembase will be blocked as a result of extensive usage. Itembase reserves the right to limit the number of periodic API calls Customer is allowed to make. Itembase may temporarily suspend Customers access to the API and the Service if the Customer exceeds API call limits. Attempts to circumvent API call limits may result in termination of this Agreement, suspension of Customers access rights to use the APIs and Services, and/or reduction of Customers access to all or some APIs. Unused API calls will not roll over to the next call limit period. In addition to its other rights under this Agreement, Itembase may utilize technical measures to prevent over-usage and/or stop usage of the API by an Application after any usage limitations are exceeded. The Itembase SLA is no longer valid for a Customer who exceeds their agreed usage with a Commerce System or Itembase.

Exhibit A: Itembase Services Description

1. The Itembase Service:Itembase’s Integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) allows companies providing applications and/or services to Merchants and/or Consumers to standardize data connectivity in support of Customers current and future business with Merchants and/or Consumers. Itembase ingests transaction data from Customer onboarded Merchants and/or Consumers through unlimited connectivity ("Connectors") to Commerce Systems and converts this data into an Itembase Normalized Data Payload. This standardized Data Payload normalization transforms the data from hundreds of incompatible Commerce Systems into a single, usable format for Customer. Connectivity to Itembase’s iPaaS will allow Customer to receive data from all Commerce Systems once the specific Connector has been launched and is live with connected Merchants. Itembase provides authorization, sign-on, data transport and data field normalization for all connected Commerce Systems and arrives with extensive documentation and onboarding tools. This makes it fast and painless to onboard Customer's Merchants in order to capture transaction data.
2. The Itembase Normalized Data Payload:This Agreement covers connectivity and data field normalization to the specific Itembase Normalized Data Payload ("Data Payload"). Through its iPaaS, Itembase will capture transaction data from Commerce System's where a Merchant has onboarded through Itembase. Transaction data is received in hundreds of incompatible formats across hundreds of Commerce Systems. Itembase normalizes all of these formats into one, consumable structure referred to as the Data Payload. The Data Payload includes all Data Payload data fields described in the Itembase Normalized Data Payload below.

Itembase may change the Itembase Normalized Data Payload to accommodate market and performance requirements on a regular basis. The last 3 versions of the Itembase Normalized Payload will be available at all times and Customer will be given notice at least 30 days before a past version of the Itembase Normalized Data Payload will be removed.

3. Native API:The Native API allows the Customer to extract additional information outside of the Itembase Normalized Data Payload and Write Back data to Commerce Systems such as Tracking Code, Inventory Update Status, etc. These transactions and updates are not part of standard Itembase formatted data sets received or sent through to the Commerce System. The Native API is turned off and not included unless Customer has specifically requested this access.
4. Custom Data Payload:Itembase supports Custom Data Payloads that allow the Customer to receive a unique Data Payload targeted towards business needs in a normalized data format. Custom Data Payloads are mapped and normalized according to the Customers requirements and maps the available data fields for each Commerce System into a Custom Data Payload that delivers the data as-is from the Commerce System.
5. Normalized Write Back:Itembase provides dedicated Write Back Features that allow Customer to replace parts of Customers own application by including relevant Read Data Payload and business logic with a Commerce System specific Write Logic and Mapping to perform Normalized Write Backs of Data into the connected Commerce Systems. Itembase provides pre-built Features such as Fulfillment, Cross Border, Dynamic Pricing, etc. or Customer can customize a Write Back Feature according to Customer specific business need.
6. Connectors:An Itembase Connector is a software application which covers the functionality of programmatically connecting to a Commerce Systems API or Extension/Plugin System which exposes an API. A Connector monitors webhook notifications from the Commerce System, or in the case where the Commerce System does not provide a webhook, the Connector emulates the webhook. A Connector stores access credentials such as API keys, username, passwords, token to the Merchant instance on a Commerce System in a secure, encrypted manner that is provided either directly by the Commerce Systems API, Extension/Plugin or through a form that the Merchant completes. The Connector ensures that each connection between Itembase’s iPaaS and a Merchant that exists on a Commerce System is constantly identifiable via a universal unique identifier. Every Data Payload that comes from a Merchants shop has the unique connection identifier attached for further matching and grouping.
7. Connector Directory: The Itembase Connector Directory allows Customer to internally search a library of over 700 Commerce Systems (new Connectors to recently launched Commerce Systems will be added monthly as part of the monthly maintenance fee). Customer can review insights on over 700 Commerce Systems and versions of Commerce Systems in order to market specific or unlimited connectivity to Merchants. Once Connectors are launched and active, Customer can share available Connectors with Merchants to begin the Merchant onboarding process. Included within the Connector Directory, Market Pulse enables Customer to track the Commerce System visits and additional Connectors requested by Merchants or internal Sales/Marketing team members.
8. Merchant Onboarding: Itembase provides its services and technical team to support Customer in onboarding Merchants to their specific applications. To do this, Customer can request Itembase to build and support a listing on public App Stores of the selected Commerce Systems to be found and recognized by search, or as a private App for specific Merchants that can receive a direct request to onboard with the Customer. Once the Merchant discovers or is invited to connect with Customer on the Commerce System’s they utilize Itembase provides Application Templates for Merchant registration & uptake information, Customer Application listing on a web-site/micro-site and Opt-In/Opt-Out capture.
9. Advisor: The purpose of the Service is to deliver Customer’s Merchants with an understanding of the Purchasing or Business optimization potential, and recommendations which may help Customer’s Merchants reach that potential.  The Service includes:

• The Service includes the import of Merchants historic and on-going transactional data and use it in the analysis required to assess the business potential and make recommendations for improvement.
• The Alerting Service generates a daily list of actions about potential opportunities which needs urgent attention - the Alerts.
• The Action Service provides a daily list of recommended management actions which are the most likely actions a Merchant can take to improve its business results. They are presented as discrete actions allowing the Merchant to cherry pick the ones the Merchant finds most compelling.
• The Purchasing Optimization Service compares Merchants Purchase KPIs to the Benchmark KPIs of the Category of Consumers to which Consumers belongs and makes recommendations for most compelling use cases - the use cases which are most likely to close the KPI gaps and improve the operating results.
• The Business Potential Service compares Merchant’s KPIs to the Benchmark KPIs of the Category of Merchants to which Merchant belongs and makes recommendations for most compelling use cases - the use cases which are most likely to close the KPI gaps and improve the operating results.

The optional Smart App Store Service (listed below) helps the Merchant identify candidate Solutions or Services which may be most applicable to meet the needs of the most compelling use cases. Candidate Solutions and Services are compared for a range of proven criteria and a short-list is created. If Merchant is sponsored by a Solution Provider, or self-sponsored, and within geographic scope, the Service may also include Itembase Consultants communicating directly with short-listed Solution and Service Providers to further qualify each Solution while confirming pricing and terms. This intent is to verify and refine the short-list order allowing the Merchant to gain further confidence in the recommended Solution or Service before making the purchase decision.  Such consulting services may also be available to the sponsored Merchants to handle the purchase process, the set-up and service initiation of the purchased Solution and/or Service and to manage the interaction with the Solution or Service Provider.

10. Smart App Store:Is a capability that Customer can provide for Merchants to search for Solution and Service Providers based on searchable specific and set criteria. Itembase tracks information on over 26,000 eCommerce Solution and Service Providers, Commerce Systems available worldwide and information on 17 million Merchants that utilize various Solution and Service Providers. In this way, Itembase can make recommendations on relevant applications and/or services that can help the Merchant’s business growth objectives. Information such as Company Name, Location, Size, Market Focus, Categorization of Capabilities, Market Penetration, Target Customers and other relevant data points are tracked and updated monthly. The Smart App Store can be available by Country, Region, based on specific applications and/or services that Customer would like to offer from Solution and Service Providers.
11. Reporting:Itembase Reporting is created/customized for Customer’s consumption or provided to Customer’s onboarded Merchants and consumes the raw data from any Commerce System connected. It includes a Sales KPI Dashboard focused on all Sales related Metrics which are broken down by Channel, Geography, Product Category, Customer Segment, Date etc. The format and frequency of these reports is defined by Customer.
12. Application Template: Itembase provides an alternative, and optional, Merchant Application Template when the Itembase Customer isn’t ready or fully able to deploy the ability to unify the Customer’s Merchant onboarding and operational needs across Commerce Systems. The Itembase Application Template includes a range of tools for Customers providing services to Merchants to build and customize Merchant applications, manage Merchant accounts & users, create global and service specific settings, build enrollment workflows for customer service, integration enrollment and operational interfaces where Merchants can manage and operate the Customer’s applications.
    Any such Service offered by Itembase is referred to in this “Customer Agreement - Terms of Services” as the “Application Template Service(s).” A current list of Features is available in the Itembase Application Template Feature List which is attached to this Agreement in an Exhibit, Amendment and/or Order Form. Any new features or tools which are added to the current Services will also be subject to this “Customer Agreement - Terms of Service.” Examples of a typical Itembase Customer Application Template include:

12a. Account & User Management

The Application Template enables Account and User Management with features such as Account Registration, Account Creation, Auto-Account Creation, Login, Reset Password, Profile & Identity Management, User Management, Email Notifications and other features enabling Merchants to sign-up for an Account and manage user-access to your Itembase-specific Application Template dashboard.

12b. Settings

Settings enable companies to define a range of settings Merchants can configure while being logged into the Application Template instance.  Settings cover Application Template wide settings like Account & User Management settings, Payment and Billing Settings, Enrollment Workflow Settings as well as vertical specific settings for the chosen Operational Interface Templates.

12c. Enrollment Workflows

Enrollment workflows enable companies to create enrollment flows for external integrations to e.g., Commerce Systems, as well as dedicated customer and service enrollment flows and forms for their own services offered to Merchants.  Enrollment Flows allows API Enrollment Flows, Payment Flows and Data Collection flows via Form or Wizard Modules enabling collection and storage for later use of data on e.g. Merchants, products, and customers.

12d. Operational Interfaces

Operational Interfaces are offered based on Industry Verticals enabling to launch an industry and use-case specific Operational Interface and related workflows, settings and connectivity.  Each operational Interface consists of a set of operational pages, settings page along with a number of workflows and API connectivity enabling the Merchant to operate the service(s) offered through the Application Template by the company.

Exhibit F: Itembase Professional Services Terms

These Terms and Conditions govern the provision of the Professional Services. The Professional Services are purchased separately from any other Service provided by Itembase Holdings, Inc. ("Itembase") and defined by a separate Exhibit, Amendment and/or Order Form, and accepted by Customer. Travel and related expenses are not included and will be invoiced separately. Unused Professional Service hours and fees do not rollover to subsequent Agreements.

In the event that Itembase uses any subcontractors in the performance of its obligations hereunder, Itembase will remain responsible for such subcontractors' performance. Itembase warrants that the Professional Services will be performed by Itembase personnel (including any contractors) in a professional and workmanlike manner. This warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Customer must report any deficiencies in the Professional Services within 90 days of performance in order to receive warranty remedies. Customer's sole remedy for breach of the foregoing warranty shall be the prompt re-performance of the deficient Professional Services as described and warranted. Should Itembase be unable to so re-perform, it will refund Customer all prepaid fees for the deficient Professional Services.

Anything provided to Customer by Itembase ("Deliverables") shall be owned soley by Itembase; provided, however, that any creative content (for example, creative copy for email and landing pages, custom queries, links, images, graphs and photos) created exclusively for Customer by Itembase in connection with the performance of the Professional Services (the "Work Product"), shall be the sole and exclusive property of Customer. For all Deliverables that are not Work Product, upon Customer's payment of fees due, Itembase grants Customer a global, non-exclusive, perpetual, non-transferable, royalty-free license to copy, maintain use and run (as applicable) the Deliverables, solely for its internal business purposes, associated with its use of the Services. Deliverables not rejected within five business days of delivery shall be deemed acceptable by Customer. Each party shall hold the other's Confidential Information in confidence and not use or disclose such Confidential Information other than in connection with performance of obligations hereunder. "Confidential Information" shall mean all confidential or proprietary information disclosed orally or in writing by one party to the other that is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or whose confidential nature is reasonably apparent. Confidential Information shall not include information which is: (a) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no fault of the receiving party; (b) was in the receiving party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure; (c) is lawfully disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without restriction on disclosure or any breach of confidence; or (d) is independently developed by or for the receiving party.

In no event shall either party be liable to the other for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, reliance, cover or lost profits damages, whether in contract or tort, even if the other party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Neither party's aggregate liability for damages hereunder shall exceed the total amount of fees paid and/or due from Customer for the Professional Services purchased under the Exhibit, Amendment and/or Order Form for the Professional Services giving rise to the liability.
