3.16 BLACKLISTS A “Blacklist” is a list of mobile numbers that should not receive messages. Customer acknowledges that CellTrust, Carriers or other third parties may maintain Blacklist(s) that prevent sending of Messages to such mobile numbers. Customer agrees it will create and maintain a Blacklist of mobile numbers for any User that notifies Customer that the User does not want to receive messages whether such notification is made through the “STOP” or other opt-out command via the short code, email, phone call, or any other means. Customer shall ensure that no Message (except as set forth below) is sent to any mobile number on Customer’s Blacklist by either maintaining a system that electronically prevents sending Messages to such mobile numbers or by emailing CellTrust support with adequate information to add such mobile number to the appropriate CellTrust Blacklist. If Customer receives any Messages from any mobile number on a Blacklist, other than a proper opt-in command in accordance with Customer’s approved program, Customer will not send a reply Message. CellTrust, in its own discretion, reserves the right to add any mobile number to a Blacklist if CellTrust is notified that a mobile number should not receive Messages. Sending a confirmation response as required by MMA guidelines or by Carrier rules to (i) a User who has sent a message to indicate a desire to be placed on a Blacklist (i.e. the User texts “stop” to Customer), or (ii) to a User who texts “HELP”, will not be construed to be a violation of this Section.

If a Shared Short Code is part of Customer’s Purchased Services, CellTrust will grant access for Customer to its Shared Short Code, provided that the Customer Program is approved. Customer is responsible for payment of initial setup fees and periodic platform access fees for use of a Shared Short Code. Customer acknowledges that CellTrust’s Shared Short Code will remain under the control and ownership of CellTrust.

the keyword(s) for which the right of use has been granted specifically to Customer. Customer acknowledges that it is not guaranteed the right to any keyword utilized in a demo account, but Customer may request use of such keyword(s) upon purchase of Services. Customer acknowledges that it does not maintain any ownership rights to any keyword(s) and, upon termination of this Agreement, any such keyword(s) associated with a CellTrust Short Code may be made available by CellTrust to other customers.

Customer acknowledges that in addition to aforementioned fees, appropriate credit is required for both Dedicated and Shared Short Codes to send and receive MT and MO.

5.2 SHORTCODE APPROVAL / REFUND Program approval is required for activating a Dedicated Short Code and any Programs on CellTrust Shared Short Codes. Customer shall pay all setup and any other applicable processing fees prior to commencement of the approval process by CellTrust. In the case of Programs that are not approved by some or all Carriers, Customer has the option to cancel such Program(s), in which case Customer acknowledges that setup and processing fees are nonrefundable and any new Program approval, or resubmission of a Program for approval, shall bear new setup, processing, and other applicable fees.

Customer acknowledges that all leasing fees and hosting fees are nonrefundable. Customer’s Dedicated Short Code is launched with a Carrier when the Program is approved by that Carrier and the Dedicated Short Code has been set up for MO and MT for Users of that Carrier.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that Shared Short Code setup fees and periodic access platform fees are nonrefundable even if Customer has not used the Shared Short Code.

Customer acknowledges that the Short Code approval process is subject to change at the will of any Carrier or other third party necessary for the Services and that such changes are beyond the control of CellTrust. Customer acknowledges that new information, documentation, or other requests may be required to complete the Short Code approval process. Customer further acknowledges that any delay by Customer in responding to such requests will delay the Short Code approval process.

5.2.1 CREDIT REFUNDS/TRANSFERS Credits are nonrefundable and are revoked upon: (i) Customer’s proper request for cancellation; (ii) termination of all Services; or (iii) expiration of credits. Customer may request the transfer of any available credits to other Short Codes owned by Customer or any Shared Short Code that is part of Customer’s Purchased Services. Such transfer shall be subject to approval by CellTrust at its sole discretion.


5.3 PERIODIC FEE COMMENCEMENT Due to the nature of the Dedicated Short Code approval process, CellTrust has the right to begin charging the hosting fees upon Dedicated Short Code becoming live with three (3) Carriers, except in the event Customer chooses to initially or only submit its program to less than three (3) Carriers, CellTrust shall have the right to begin charging the hosting fees upon the Dedicated Short Code becoming live with each of the Carriers Customer initially selects. Leasing fee for Dedicated Short Code shall commence upon the registration of the Dedicated Short Code with CSCA, CWTA, or any other authority representing such functions.

Shared Short Code periodic fees shall commence upon activation.

5.4 ACCEPTANCE OF SHORT CODE TERMS Customer acknowledges that, in order to provide Content or otherwise utilize a Short Code, Customer is required to be aware of and accept the terms of the Common Short Code Administration (“CSCA”) Registrant Sublicense Agreement available at http://www.usshortcodes.com/csc_subLeaseAgree.html, which may be modified by the CSCA at any time and in the CSCA’s sole discretion. Customer agrees it shall abide by the obligations set forth within the CSCA Registrant Sublicense Agreement and Customer shall have sole responsibility for ensuring that it remains up-to-date on any changes or modifications that may be made to this agreement.

5.5 APPROVALS SUBJECT TO CHANGE Customer acknowledges that Carriers may revoke or require changes to Approved Program(s).

Unless expressly otherwise agreed to and approved in writing by an authorized member of the CellTrust accounting department, all payments must be received by CellTrust thirty (30) days from the date CellTrust sends the invoice to Customer.

For Dedicated Short Codes registered through CellTrust, Customer shall make payment of leasing fees directly to CellTrust and shall not pay CSCA, CWTA or any other agency directly. Customer acknowledges that leasing fees for Dedicated Short Code(s) are invoiced by CellTrust at least thirty (30) days prior to their due date by CSCA, CWTA or any other agency and failure to timely pay leasing fees shall cause deregistration of the Dedicated Short Code, requiring the leasing of a new code and re-completing the short code provisioning process. Any amounts not paid by Customer when due under this Agreement will be subject to a finance charge equal to one and one half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate allowable by law, whichever is less, determined and compounded monthly from the date due until the date paid.

8.6 PRICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE CellTrust reserves the right to change the prices for Services provided by CellTrust hereunder as necessary to account for considerations of CellTrust expenses, Carrier price changes, competition, and market conditions. Customer acknowledges that CellTrust does not have control over some industry-required price changes and does not always receive prior notice of such changes; however, CellTrust will use its best efforts to notify Customer at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the price change.

8.7 CONCATENATED MESSAGES Customer may submit a large Message to CellTrust Network, when supported by CellTrust Network, for the purpose of MT, which will be concatenated as multiple SMS Messages, and each Message in the series shall be considered a separate SMS Message for which Customer shall pay a separate Message fee.

8.8 TAXES Sales, use, gross receipts or other taxes or surcharges (excluding taxes on CellTrust income) properly due to federal, state or local taxing jurisdictions on the Services provided under this Agreement, and which are not already reflected in the fees for Services, shall be separately itemized on the bills rendered to Customer and shall be paid by Customer. Should any Federal, state or local jurisdiction determine that additional sales, use, gross receipts or other taxes or surcharges (and interest, penalty and/or surcharges thereon) are due on the provision of the Services provided under this Agreement, CellTrust shall so advise Customer, and Customer shall be liable for any such tax, interest, penalty and surcharge. However, if the Customer disagrees with the assessment of any such additional tax, penalty, surcharge and interest, the Customer shall, at its option and expense (including payment of any such assessment prior to final resolution of the issue), have the right to protest the assessment and participate in any legal challenge to such assessment, but shall be liable for any tax, penalty, surcharge and interest ultimately determined to be due. CellTrust shall, when requested by Customer and at Customer's expense, cooperate with Customer in any such protest or legal challenge.

If a demand is made upon Recipient under a legal or regulatory authority of competent jurisdiction or requirement of law for disclosure of Confidential Information of the other party, when feasible, notice of the demand or requirement shall be provided by Recipient to the other party prior to Recipient’s disclosure of the Confidential Information so that reasonable arrangements may be sought to protect the confidential and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information.

Each party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to protect Confidential Information of the other party from unauthorized or inadvertent disclosure or use, and in any event, to take precautions at least as great as those taken to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature. Recipient shall also notify the other party promptly in writing in the event Recipient learns of any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information of the other party, and will cooperate in good faith to remedy such occurrence to the extent reasonably possible. Upon request


of the other party, each party shall return to the other all materials, in any medium, which contain or reveal all or any part of any Confidential Information of the other party.

Each party acknowledges that breach of this section would result in irreparable harm to the other party, for which money damages would be an insufficient remedy, and, therefore, that the other party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to all other available legal or equitable remedies to enforce the provisions of this Section.

Customer agrees not to provide CellTrust with any Feedback that is subject to license terms that seek to require the licensing or sharing with a third party any CellTrust product, technology, service or documentation incorporating or derived from such Feedback, or any CellTrust intellectual property.

EXHIBIT A: SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT CellTrust Network Uptime: CellTrust’s SLA guarantees that the CellTrust Network will be available for transmission and reception of SMS messages, delivery receipts, and other meta-data around such messages, 99% of the time in a given month, excluding scheduled maintenance. If Customer experiences Downtime, CellTrust will credit Customer the pro rata portion of the monthly Access Platform fee equal to the portion of any Downtime experienced beyond 1% in that month provided that Customer request such credit in writing within 30 days of the Downtime. For example, if Customer experiences 5% Downtime, Customer may be credited 4% of Customer’s monthly Access Platform fee (CellTrust’s guaranteed Uptime of 99% minus Customer’s experienced Uptime of 95% = 4% refund). CellTrust Network uptime consist of correct functioning of CellTrust Network only and does not consist of the correct functioning of any other third party provider or network infrastructure beyond CellTrust’s Network. CellTrust has no ability to control the correct functioning of the Carriers’ infrastructure or the User’s mobile Device. The Uptime guarantee does not consist of situations where transmission or reception of data to or from the CellTrust Network is disrupted or affected due to the Customer, Carrier(s), aggregator(s), User(s), or any other party, or force majeure. Customer Downtime is measured from the time the trouble ticket is appropriately opened by Customer to the time the CellTrust Network is once again up.
