NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged by both Parties, BizWorth and Company agree as follows:

SECTION 1.  CONTRACTOR.

A.  Independent Contractor. BizWorth and Company acknowledge and agree that BizWorth will serve as an independent contractor in the provision of business valuation services (the “Services”) and that no BizWorth employee or contractor will be an employee of Company.

B.  Authority. BizWorth will not have any right or authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of Company, or to bind Company, in any manner, and will not make any contrary representation. 

C.  Subcontracting. BizWorth may subcontract its obligations hereunder without permission of Company. BizWorth shall have full responsibility (a) for the provisions of all services, whether performed by BizWorth or its subcontractors, and for the acts, omissions, or negligence of its subcontractors and of all employees of BizWorth; and (b) for compliance by each of its subcontractors with the requirements of this Agreement, and all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, to the same extent that BizWorth would be responsible if it were performing the services directly. 

 

SECTION 2.  TERM.

A.  Term. This Agreement shall commence when executed by both parties.  This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for a one (1) year term and shall renew automatically for successive one (1) year terms unless terminated as provided in this Agreement or cancelled within the first 30 days of the trial period.  After the first one (1) year term, the Company may terminate this Agreement by providing BizWorth with thirty (30) days’ written notice of termination, with or without cause. Except for those amounts due and relating to ongoing transition services, Company shall pay BizWorth any amounts owed under this Agreement up to the date of termination.  BizWorth may terminate this Agreement by providing Company with thirty (30) days’ written notice of termination, with or without cause.

Neither the termination nor expiration of this Agreement shall relieve a party of any of their obligations under Section 8 (Confidentiality), Section 5 (Representations and Warranties), Section 6 (Indemnification) or any other obligations which, by their nature, relate to matters following termination or expiration of this Agreement. Further, BizWorth shall cooperate with Company for the orderly transition of services to Company or a third-party.

E.  Reassignment. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Engagement Letter, BizWorth reserves the right to reassign any BizWorth personnel performing services to Company to perform services for other BizWorth clients; however in such an event, BizWorth will assign a replacement resource to perform services to Company and will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain consistency of its resources for a particular service and ensure such personnel changes do not have a material adverse effect on the services.

L.  Electronic Signatures. Signature pages may be signed manually or electronically and may be transmitted by facsimile or another secure mode of transmission. Electronic signatures and electronically transmitted signatures shall have the same legal effect as an original.
