With respect to either party, the term “affiliates” means any entities that directly or  indirectly control, are controlled by, or are under the same control as, such party or any other entities  affiliated with such party or entities.  1. COVERED SOLUTIONS. Subject to the conditions and limitations of this agreement and any  applicable Proposal, Hudson Advisors grants to Client a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non transferable right and license to access and use each Solution identified in such Proposal for the  Client’s internal business purposes, including in connection with any related Services provided  by Hudson Advisors in connection with such Solution. The foregoing license shall apply for each  applicable Solution for the term set forth in the applicable Proposal or, if no such term is  provided, for the duration of Hudson Advisors provision of Services in connection with such  Solution; provided that such license may be immediately terminated and the Client’s use of  such Solution suspended in the event of the Client’s material breach of this agreement. The  scope of the Solutions and any related Services may be further described in Hudson Advisors proposals and confirming memoranda submitted to the Client or as otherwise agreed by the  parties, including one or more commercial agreements referencing the Solutions (each a  “Proposal”). The Services shall include the evaluation or discussion of potential services and  Hudson Advisors preparation of Proposals, and the parties may meet at mutually agreed times to  discuss the progress of the Services and to exchange feedback. In order to be able to provide  the Solutions and Services within the agreed timeframe and budget and to fulfill its  responsibilities on a timely basis, Hudson Advisors will rely on the Client’s timely cooperation,  including the Client making available relevant data, information and personnel, performing any  tasks or responsibilities assigned to the Client and notifying Hudson Advisors of any issues or concerns  the Client may have relating to the Services.  2. COMPENSATION. The Client shall compensate Hudson Advisors for its professional fees and expenses in connection with the Services, if any, as set forth in the applicable Proposal.

Hudson Advisors will invoice the Client for professional fees and expenses in connection  with the Services monthly or as otherwise set forth in the applicable Proposal. All invoices are  due and payable immediately on presentation. Should any invoice remain unpaid for more than  30 days after presentation, interest will accrue on the outstanding amount at the rate of 1% per  month, calculated from the 31st day after presentation until the date of payment.  3. CONFIDENTIALITY. Hudson Advisors will keep confidential any confidential information,  including any personal data (as defined below), furnished by the Client to Hudson Advisors in  connection with the Services (“Confidential Information”).

Subject to its  confidentiality obligations, where the agreed upon Services include benchmarking services  Hudson Advisors may also incorporate Confidential Information into its benchmarking databases for  use in reporting on sanitized or aggregate trends and metrics without attribution to the Client.  To bring the best of Hudson Advisors resources to serve the Client, the Client agrees that  Hudson Advisors may transfer Confidential Information to geographies other than those in which it  was collected or received, including to Hudson Advisors affiliates and sub-processors that comprise  or support Hudson Advisors infrastructure and maintenance functions as set forth in the Protocols,  to facilitate any activities authorized by the Client, provided that at all times Confidential  Information will be treated as confidential and protected in accordance with the terms of this  agreement. Confidential Information shall not include information that is or becomes publicly  available, already known to Hudson Advisors, independently acquired or developed by Hudson Advisors or legally required to be disclosed. Hudson Advisors will reasonably cooperate with the Client, at its  expense, in responding to any legally required disclosure.

In the event that the Client transfers personal data that is subject  to the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) to Hudson Advisors outside of the European  Economic Area, or where otherwise agreed by the parties or required by applicable law, the  parties agree that the standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to processors  established in third countries under Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the  Council (or any successor thereto), as applicable to Hudson Advisors Services shall be deemed automatically incorporated  into this agreement and binding upon the parties hereto, including their affiliates, unless an  alternate data transfer arrangement authorized by applicable law is agreed by the parties.  Hudson Advisors will comply with the Client’s reasonable requests to furnish information regarding  Hudson Advisors processing activities as is reasonably necessary to enable the Client to verify that  Hudson Advisors is complying with its obligations under this agreement, 5.
