software and/or hardware products and Reseller does hereby accept
such appointment and agrees to act as such Reseller in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

hardware products to Principal’s and Reseller’s existing and
potential customers and professionally represent the Principal’s
Company within the Reseller’s country or region agreed to between
the parties;
(b) Treat all information and specifications
regarding merchandise purchased under this Agreement as confidential
proprietary information of Principal and use its best efforts to

Principal to the Reseller, or at the Resellers written request. The
Principal may in its absolute discretion furnish the Reseller with
payment terms on application in writing by the Reseller. If Reseller
fails to pay or make good on any outstanding debt for the
Principal’s software products within ninety (90) days of the debt
falling due, the Reseller agrees with the Principal that the
Software Licenses issued to the Reseller's customers that remain
unpaid may be cancelled by the Principal in its absolute discretion
without notice to the Reseller and that in this event the Reseller
shall refund in full and is and shall remain absolutely liable for
any moneys collected by it to and from its customers. The Reseller
further agrees with the Principal that the Reseller shall hold the
Principal harmless from any and all claims made against the
Principal arising from its cancelling of the Software Licenses from
the Reseller's customers as set forth in section 7 herein (see
below);
5.
Reseller agrees that all sales obtained by the Reseller on behalf of
the Principal are on a one off basis as they are made, that they are
not perpetual and that the Reseller can not and does not expect to
receive any retainers, commissions or bonuses from any future sales
that the Principal’s clients and customers may make with the
Principal at any point in the future, other than those that the
Reseller makes themselves, in the course of their day-to-day
business;
6. Normal out-of-pocket expenses such as travel,
taxation, social security, medicare, all insurances (including those
mandatory), vehicle running and maintenance, mobile telephone
charges and any other costs not listed here shall be borne and paid
absolutely by Reseller;
7. Reseller shall have no authority
to bind Principal except upon written order or authorization by
Principal. It is further understood that the Reseller shall
indemnify and hold Principal harmless from and against any and all
claims, actions, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, damages, and
liabilities, including legal fees (on a solicitor and own client
basis) arising out of any conduct, actions or agreements whether it
be written, oral or implied known or unknown between the Reseller
and any third party without the written order or authorization by
the Principal;
8. The relationship hereby created is not
exclusive and Reseller hereby certifies that it has no ownership,
financial interest in, or any control of, the agencies or other
parties from which products or services are procured under, and that
no part of any payments under this Agreement shall enure to the
benefit of any such agency or other party. No part of any payment
made directly from Principal to an agency, other party or their
respective Resellers will enure to the benefit of Reseller either
through rebate, offset, or other means and Reseller will receive no
financial benefit, in any form, from such parties attributable to
the transactions covered by this Agreement;

shall, in all respects, be interpreted, construed and governed by
the laws of the State of Victoria in Australia;

the same subject matter is hereby superseded and terminated;
11. This Agreement is and sets forth the entire agreement between
the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and stands in the
place of any previous agreement, whether oral or in writing. The
parties agree that no amendment to this Agreement shall be binding
upon the parties unless it is in writing and executed by both
parties;
12. This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the respective heirs, executors, administrators and
assigns of each of the parties hereto;
13. In the event that
any provision, or portions thereof, of this Agreement are held to be
unenforceable or invalid by any court within Victoria of competent
jurisdiction, the validity or enforceability of the remaining
provisions, or portions thereof, shall not be affected thereby.
14. By clicking the “Apply & Agree to Terms” button on the application form
