f) put up with the disabling of the Payment Terminal and/or the accessories thereto for any necessary period of time, in particular if illegal conduct or any breach of this Contract is suspected or upon the direction of the Provider of the payment service provided through the Payment Terminal or because of a delay in the payment of an amount due to the Company or as a result of the termination of this Contract;

4.5. If, after the period of time for which the Package is stipulated, the Customer suspends the use of the Package for a definite period of time and asks the Company to continue the Lease of the Payment Terminal for the time during which the use of the Package is suspended, then the Customer must pay the Company a monthly rent as per the currently valid Price List.

5. SALES AND CALCULATION OF PRICE FOR PACKAGE

5.1. The Parties agree that the price for a Package depends on the Customer’s Sales. The Customer agrees that the Price List prices for the Package are specified for different bands of sales, resulting in the fact that following the calculation of the Sales for the reporting period as per 5.5 of these Terms and Conditions, the Customer will be invoiced, for the following calendar month, the price of the Package as per the pertinent band of sales achieved by the Customer in the immediately previous reporting period. If the Customer has arranged an annual subscription and fails to realise the defined Sales during any reporting period, the Customer will be invoiced, for the month following the pertinent reporting period, an amount equal to the difference between 1/12 of the price list price of the Package defined for the pertinent sales band which the Customer actually reaches in the reporting period and 1/12 of the price of the Package paid by the Customer for the annual subscription (the “Price Difference”); the Price Difference may be invoiced to the Customer either immediately after the end of the pertinent reporting period or when the Price Difference for one or more months during the pertinent reporting period of the annual subscription reaches, when aggregated, a sum no lower than CZK 1,000 or after the end of the given annual subscription when aggregated for all the as yet unpaid Price Differences payable to the Company for the given annual subscription of the Customer, always as the Company may choose.

5.2. If the use of multiple Payment Terminals for a single Licence is stipulated for the Customer’s Package, each band of sales is multiplied by the number of Payment Terminals stipulated for the Licence and the total price shall be arrived at by comparing that multiple with the sum of the Sales realised on each of those Payment Terminals.

5.3. If the Customer uses multiple Packages, the Customer shall be responsible for the correct assignment of the Payment Terminals to the pertinent Packages and shall notify the Company of any change without undue delay.

5.4. The Customer hereby grants the Company his/her express consent to the Company ascertaining the Customer’s Sales in order to determine the price for the Package.

5.5. 5.5. The Parties agree that the first calculation of the Sales-based Package price will take place 3 (three) calendar months after the activation of payment services for the Customer, with the next Sales-based Package price always to be calculated after each next calendar month. Three previous calendar months are always the reporting period for calculating the Sales-based Package price.

5.6. If the annual subscription fee for the Package is renewed, the price of the Package for the next period shall be ascertained using the Customer’s Sales for the last three calendar months as realised in the immediately previous annual subscription of the Customer.

5.7. For the avoidance of doubt the Parties state that in the prolonged period the price of the Sales-based Package shall be calculated by analogy to 5.1–5.6 of these Terms and Conditions.

6. CHANGES TO PACKAGE

6.1. The Customer may request that the Licence ordered as part of a Package be changed by the Company for the next period. Such a request must be made no later than ten days prior to the end of the current period for which the Package is stipulated. Along with the change to the Licence, the Customer must sign a request for amendment of the contract entered into with the Payment Service Provider, such amendment to update the Transaction Fees as per the current Price List valid as of the date on which the Customer requests a change to the Licence.

6.2. If the Customer requests that the Licence ordered as part of the Package be changed to a lower-class Licence, the soonest moment when the change to the Licence may take effect is the moment when the change is approved by the Payment Service Provider. Unless the request is approved by the end of the pertinent calendar month, the Licence is taken to be changed no sooner than the moment when the request is approved by the Payment Service Provider.

In such case the other terms and conditions of the existing Licensing Agreement and/or the Package (with account to be taken of the changes pursuant to Article 5 of these Terms and Conditions, Article 16.5 of the Terms and Conditions and Article 15.1 of these Terms and Conditions) shall be preserved;

b) by withdrawal from the Licensing Agreement and/or the contract whereby the Package is provided, for reasons specified in Article 15.5 or 15.6 unless it results from the Contract otherwise;

15.5. The Customer may withdraw from the Licensing Agreement and/or the Contract whereby the Package is provided if the Software Product and/or the Payment Terminal do/does not work properly for longer than 30 days for reasons caused solely by the Company.

15.6. The Company may withdraw from the Licensing Agreement and/or the Contract whereby the Package is provided if:

a) the Customer is in default in the payment of the fee for the Licence or the price for the Package or any amount due to the Company by the Customer for more than ten days despite being notified thereof;

b) the Customer provided false information when concluding the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract;

c) the Customer failed to provide the assistance to the Company that was required for the proper performance of the Licensing Agreement and/or the provision of the Package;

d) another person uses the Software Product and/or the leased Payment Terminal without the Customer having obtained the Company’s prior written consent thereto;

e) the Customer uses or distributes tools that could threaten the security, functionality or integrity of the Software Product and/or the Payment Terminal;

f) the Customer otherwise seriously breaches the Licensing Agreement and/or the Contract or the present Terms and Conditions;

g) the Customer has entered into liquidation, faces opened or ongoing insolvency proceedings, has been placed under receivership or is subject to enforcement of a decision or distrainment by selling his/her business.

15.7. Withdrawal from the Licensing Agreement or the Contract whereby the Package is provided only has effect as from the time of withdrawal, that is, the Parties are not required to return to each other any performance provided prior to the withdrawal from the Licensing Agreement and/or the contract whereby the Package is provided. So as to avoid doubt, it is established that the withdrawal from the Licensing Agreement and/or the Contract whereby the Package is provided does not relieve the Customer, in particular, of his/her obligation to pay the Company the price for the Licence and/or the Package provided (or, if applicable, the price for the proportional part thereof for the period up to the date of the early termination of the Agreement by a notice of termination or withdrawal; in the event of withdrawal from the Licensing Agreement and/or the contract whereby the Package is provided except for a withdrawal for causes under Article 15.5 of the present Terms and Conditions, the Customer is not entitled to a discount which the Customer would be entitled to if the Agreement lasted at least for the period agreed by the Parties, i.e. in such a case the Customer is under an obligation to pay the Company the difference in the price for the Licence and/or the Package as invoiced in accordance with Article 15.3 of the present Terms and Conditions), including interest on late payment, if any.

16. FINAL PROVISIONS

16.1. In the event that any provision of the present Terms and Conditions is or becomes invalid, unenforceable or null, such invalidity, unenforceability or nullity will not cause the invalidity, unenforceability or nullity of the remaining provisions of the Terms and Conditions.

16.2. The present Terms and Conditions come into force and take effect on the date of their issue.

16.3. All information relating to the Software Product, the Payment Terminal or other Products, the Terms and Conditions or the Price List will be made available to Customers at the contact points of the Company or its partners (an up-to-date list of contact points shall be posted on the Company’s website), on the Company’s website or in a different appropriate manner.

16.4. The Parties agree that the Terms and Conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Company unilaterally, in particular as a result of changes in legislation or technological changes affecting, for example, the communication with Customers and/or the manner of the conclusion, amendment and termination of the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract, but also as a result of extensions or changes to the Products or Packages provided by the Company. The Company is also entitled to change the Terms and Conditions unilaterally if the market conditions or the terms and conditions or licensing conditions of trading partners with whom the Company collaborates and whose services the Company uses to provide services to the Customer change.

16.5. The Customer shall be informed about the amendment and/or supplementation of the Terms and Conditions on the website www.dotykacka.cz, through the customer account of the Customer accessible on the Company’s web interface and/or by email, if an email address was provided when the Licensing Agreement or any other Contract was signed, at least seven days before the date of the coming into effect of the amendment or supplementation of the Terms and Conditions. This amendment or supplementation will not affect the rights and obligations of the Parties arising during the period of validity of the previous version of the Terms and Conditions. The Customer has the right to refuse the amendment or supplementation of the Terms and Conditions and, on the basis of this reason, terminate the Licensing Agreement and/or the contract whereby the Package is provided in writing before the date of the coming into effect of the revised and/or supplemented Terms and Conditions at the latest. In the event that the Customer does not exercise this right before the date of the coming into effect of the revised and/or supplemented Terms and Conditions, it is assumed that he/she has expressed his/her consent to the content of the amended or supplemented Terms and Conditions. The price for the Licence for the agreed duration of the Contract cannot be unilaterally increased on the basis of an amendment to the Terms and Conditions. The amended price shall not be applicable until the new period of the duration of the Contract pursuant to 15.4(a); this is without prejudice to Article 5 of these Terms and Conditions.

16.6. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Company is entitled to communicate amendments to the Terms and Conditions made in favour of the Customer in a manner set forth in Art. 16.5 of the present Terms and Conditions even within a period shorter than the period specified in the given article and that amendments that are not to the detriment of the Customer do not give rise to the right to terminate the Licensing Agreement and/or the contract whereby the Package is provided pursuant to
Article 16.5 of the present Terms and Conditions.

16.7. The rights and obligations of the Parties not governed by the present Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the relevant provisions of the law, in particular by the applicable provisions of the Civil Code.

16.8. The Parties agree that all communication between them shall be in the Czech language.

16.9. In accordance with Section 89a of the Code of Civil Procedure, the Parties agree that the District Court for Prague 5, or the Metropolitan Court in Prague if subject matter jurisdiction is vested in regional courts for first instance hearings, shall have local jurisdiction over any litigation of disputes arising under or in connection with the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract, and that these disputes shall be settled exclusively under the laws of the Czech Republic.

16.10. The Parties exclude the application of the provisions of Section 557 of the Civil Code to the rights and obligations arising from the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract.

16.11. Pursuant to Section 558(2) of the Civil Code, the Parties exclude the possibility that, beyond the scope of the express provisions of the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract, any of the rights and obligations are drawn from practice established by them or from generally accepted commercial practices relating to the subject matter of the Licensing Agreement and/or any other Contract.
