Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Alterwave hereby appoints Portlogic, and Portlogic hereby accepts its appointment, as Alterwave’s “Sales Partner” for the purpose of identifying and pursuing customers for the purpose of reselling Alterwave software systems and solutions (“Alterwave Products”).  The appointment of Portlogic as a Sales Partner is non-assignable and permits Portlogic to market and resell Alterwave Products.

2.

Term/Termination

This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall continue for a term of one (1) year with the understanding that either party may terminate this Agreement at any earlier date with thirty (30) days prior written notice and with no further obligation to the other Party, except full payment for services rendered as agreed herein and outlined in Section 7. This Agreement may be renewed for additional one-year periods upon mutual written agreement of the parties.

3.

Marketing Opportunities

Portlogic will be expected to independently promote the sale of Alterwave Products to customers in its target markets and generate its own leads.

Alterwave acknowledges that Portlogic may provide same or similar marketing services for its other partners.

Each party expressly undertakes to retain in confidence all information and know-how transmitted to the other that the disclosing party has identified as being proprietary and/or confidential (“Confidential Information”), and expressly undertakes to make no use of Confidential Information except as required to perform its obligations under this Agreement during its term.  All Confidential Information shall be treated by the receiving party with the same degree of care as is used with respect to the receiving party’s own information of like importance that is to be kept confidential to prevent disclosure to any third party.  However, neither party shall have an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of information that:  (a) is already in the public domain or subsequently becomes available to the public through no breach of this Agreement by the receiving party; (b) was lawfully in the receiving party’s possession prior to receipt from the disclosing party; (c) is received independently from a third party free to lawfully disclose such information to the receiving party; (d) is generally made available to third parties by the disclosing party without restrictions on disclosure; or (e) is disclosed pursuant to a court order, provided that the receiving party shall provide the disclosing party reasonable notice of such order and the opportunity to object to or limit such disclosure.


Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, the receiving party’s obligations hereunder with respect to each item of Confidential Information shall survive for twelve (12) months after the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
