BUSINESS INFORMATION SERVICES AGREEMENT
FOR INTERNET DELIVERY
     This Addendum to ACCUFAX Div., Southvest Inc. Business Information Services Agreement for Internet Delivery (the "Addendum") is made as of Thursday, October 10, 2024 via: 44.200.122.214, by and between ACCUFAX Div., Southvest Inc.("Distributor" or "Reseller"), Experian Information Solutions, Inc.

     WHEREAS, Distributor (or Reseller) and Subscriber have entered into a Business Information Services Agreement, dated Thursday, October 10, 2024 via: 44.200.122.214 (the "Agreement") whereby Distributor (or Reseller) provides certain on-line business credit reporting services ("Services") to Subscriber; and

     WHEREAS, Subscriber has requested access to certain services offered by Experian through an Internet connection ("Internet Credit Delivery Services" or "ICDS"), and Experian desires to allow such access based on Subscriber's and Distributor's (or Reseller's) agreement to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, Experian, Distributor (or Reseller) and Subscriber agree as follows:

Subscriber will ensure that each Authorized Employee (i) is familiar with the requirements specified herein, and agrees to comply with such requirements, (ii) agrees not to disclose the User ID and password assigned to the Authorized Employee to any other person, and (iii) agrees not to order business credit reports or other data from Experian's site except in performance of Employee's official duties for Subscriber.
  3. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for all activities of Subscriber’s employees in utilizing Internet access and for assuring the facilities for receipt of information provided to it through the Internet are secure and in compliance with the Agreement. Subscriber shall not retransmit or otherwise make available to any person ICDS (including any of the information therein) on or through the Internet or other generally accessible network or delivery method.
  4. Subscriber agrees to notify Experian in writing immediately if it wishes to delete any employee as an Authorized Employee or if any Authorized Employee is terminated or otherwise loses his or her status as an Authorized Employee.
  5. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that this Addendum is in addition to the requirements of Distributor's (or Reseller's) membership application process, including Access Security Requirements (except where expressly modified by this Addendum) which are applicable to Distributor's (or Reseller's) provision of BOP reports and SBI services.

  6. Subscriber shall use its best efforts to ensure the confidentiality of all User ID's and passwords issued by Experian to Subscriber's employees. Subscriber shall indemnify Experian against any damage or disruption to Experian systems or business caused by Subscriber’s employees, subcontractors, subcontractor employees or its clients whether as a result of their access to such systems or compromise of password confidentiality or otherwise.
  7. Subscriber understands that its use of Experian networking and computing resources may be monitored and audited by Experian, without further notice.
  8. Experian may from time to time audit the security mechanisms Subscriber maintains to safeguard access to Experian information, systems and electronic communications. Audits may include examination of systems security and associated administrative practices.
  9. If Experian or Distributor (or Reseller) believes that Subscriber has breached a material obligation contained in this Addendum, Experian or Distributor (or Reseller) may terminate this Addendum immediately by providing the other parties notice of termination.
  10. Experian shall have no obligation or liability for or on account of any mechanical or other breakdown, malfunction or defect in the Internet connection accessed by Subscriber. EXPERIAN MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS ADDENDUM. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL EXPERIAN HAVE ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY TO SUBSCRIBER FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE RELATING TO, ARISING OUT OF, OR RESULTING FROM SUBSCRIBER'S INTERNET ACCESS TO THE SERVICES.

  12. Except as expressly amended by this Addendum, the Agreement remains in full force and effect. The terms of this Addendum shall prevail in the event of any inconsistency between this Addendum and the Agreement.
