Master Services Agreement

These terms and conditions, along with the agreement you executed with Telemitra, constitute the Agreement (“Agreement”) between Telemitra Inc. (“Telemitra”, “we”, or “us”) and the user (“you,” “user” or “Customer”) of Telemitra’s services, consulting, support, and any related products (“Service”). This Agreement governs both the Service and any equipment used in conjunction with the Service. Telemitra may, at its discretion and without notice, modify, change, add to or omit any terms and conditions in this Agreement without advance notice to you. Your use of this Service after one (1) full billing cycle constitutes your agreement to such changes. Upon request, Telemitra will mail to you a paper copy of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective the later of (i) the date it is signed by Telemitra or (ii) you first begin to use the Service (the “Effective Date”).

BY ACTIVATING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND FULLY ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTES THAT MAY ARISE UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

1. SERVICE
1.1 Terms.

(a) Monthly Terms: Unless 1.1b applies, Service is offered on a month to month basis that begins on the date Telemitra activates your Service, unless activation is delayed due to circumstances beyond the customer’s control – then the term starts once the impediment to activation is removed and ends on the last day in the following month. Subsequent terms of this Agreement automatically renew on a monthly basis unless you give us written notice of non-renewal at least ten (10) days before the end of the monthly term in which the notice is given. You are purchasing the Service for full monthly terms, meaning that if you attempt to disconnect Service prior to the end of a monthly term, you will be responsible for the full month’s charges to the end of the then-current term, including, without limitation, unbilled charges, plus a termination fee, if applicable, all of which will immediately become due and payable. You will also be responsible for the next full month’s charges in the event that you do not provide the requisite ten-day notice of discontinuation prior to the expiration of the then current term. Expiration of the term, suspension or discontinuation of Service will not excuse you from paying all accrued and unpaid charges due under this Agreement.

(b) Term and Termination: Some products/services are available under a term agreement (Term). The Term starts on the day of the last billed new Service, or product (if applicable) whichever is later, and billing for Service commences when each Service is activated, unless activation is delayed due to circumstances beyond the customer’s control— then the billing starts once the impediment to activation is removed. The Term and will automatically renew for successive terms equal to the initial term thereafter (in each case, a “Renewal Term”), until terminated in accordance with the remaining terms of this Agreement.

  1. Either party may terminate a Term Agreement, for any reason or for no reason, at the end of the current term or any Renewal Term by providing the other party with not less than ninety (90) days prior written notice of termination.
  2. Either party may terminate a Term Agreement if the other party has committed a material breach of this Agreement, and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days of the date the party in breach receives written notice of the breach. If we terminate this Agreement under this Section 1. (b) (ii) you shall pay us a termination fee equal to the sum of one hundred percent (100%) of the remaining minimum monthly fees that would have been incurred for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement (the “Termination Charge”), plus all fees incurred prior to the date of termination of services, plus any damages incurred by us as a result of your material breach.
  3. Before the end of the any term or Renewal Term, and without your breaching this Agreement, you may terminate a Term Agreement with respect to all Services by written notification to us. The Agreement shall terminate thirty (30) days thereafter, at which time you shall pay us a termination charge equal to the sum of one hundred percent (100%) of the remaining minimum monthly fees that would have been incurred for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement (the “Termination Charge”), plus all fees incurred prior to the date of termination of services. Provided that relevant Telemitra Vendor’s terms permit such reduction, Customer has a right to reduce its Services requested without penalty if the reduction is related to a change in the Customer’s business needs, and not to shift Services to a different provider.

1.2 Fair Use.
