  1.3. Intellectsoft and third-party subcontractors providing Intellectsoft Services are not engaged in the practice of law. Intellectsoft does not provide legal advice or representation. To achieve the highest quality and efficiency, Client and/or its counsel is responsible for reviewing Intellectsoft Services deliverables and work product and providing feedback on a regular basis.

 

  2. PAYMENT TERMS
  2.1. Price . Client will pay Intellectsoft in accordance with the price terms for the Intellectsoft Services listed on an addendum to this Agreement, Statement of Work or invoice. If additional services are requested outside the scope of the addendum or Statement of Work, Intellectsoft standard rate will apply, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.

  2.3. Payment . $18,200 payment required prior to project commencement. $10,00 will be applied immediately. $8,200 will be applied to the final project invoice. Invoices will be submitted bi-weekly. Client will pay Intellectsoft within 15 days of the date of each invoice submitted for all Intellectsoft Services. Intellectsoft’ acceptance of payment of any amount less than the full amount due will not be a waiver of the remaining amount due. Intellectsoft may apply any overpayment on any invoice or proposal to any other amount due from Client. Past due obligations will bear interest at the rate of 15% per annum, or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less. Any interest charged or received greater than the maximum amount allowed by law will be applied to the principal obligations, or if none is owed, will be refunded to Client. If any Client payment becomes past due, Intellectsoft will have the right to retain possession of any Client property in Intellectsoft’ possession, and any Images produced by Intellectsoft, and Intellectsoft may suspend performance on any work in process, including but not limited to, availability of the hosted review platform until payment is made.

Any amounts disputed may be deducted from the invoice; however, a disputed amount does not relieve the Client from payment obligations for the remainder of the invoice. The remainder amount of any invoice containing a disputed amount must be paid within 30 days of the date of the invoice. The disputed amount and the reasons for disputing the amount must be submitted to Intellectsoft in writing within 15 days of receipt of the invoice.

Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Intellectsoft and the Client, the Scheduled Downtime shall occur after three days advance notice to the Client and no more than once per month. In addition, there may be events that from time to time will services and support inaccessible for a limited amount of time due to unforeseen, unavoidable software, hardware, network, power and/or Internet outages (“Unscheduled Downtime”). Intellectsoft will use its best efforts to ensure that Scheduled Downtime and Unscheduled Downtime cause the availability percentage to be no less than ninety-nine and three-tenths percent (99.3%) in each calendar.
  3.2. Disaster Recovery .

In the event the applicable Services are not reinstated within the applicable Service Levels, Client may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, without further liability other than for payment for services already performed by Intellectsoft prior to a services interruption. In the event of a disaster, Intellectsoft shall not increase its charges under any Services Schedule under this Agreement or charge Client usage fees in addition to the charges set forth in this Agreement.
  3.3. Storage of Data . Upon conclusion of any Client project, and for a period of sixty (60) days after delivery to Client of all client data (the “Standard Storage Period”), Intellectsoft will store a copy of such client data provided to Client. After the foregoing Standard Storage Period, Intellectsoft may erase, write over, destroy or discontinue storage of any client data without any liability or obligation to Client.
  3.4. Client Inspection . Client (or Client’s counsel) shall review completely all services, documents and/or data delivered by Intellectsoft (“Deliverables”) to determine whether any Deliverables or any other aspect of the Intellectsoft Services fail to conform to the requirements of this Agreement.

  4. CONFIDENTIALITY
  4.1. Confidential Information . “Confidential Information” shall mean any non-public information of the other Party that is designated as confidential, or that the receiving Party knew or reasonably should have known was confidential because it derives independent value from not being generally known to the public.

Each Party shall limit disclosure of Confidential Information to its employees or agents who have a need to know related to the Parties’ business relationship.
  4.3. Upon termination of a Services Schedule or this Agreement, the recipient of Confidential Information shall promptly deliver to the other Party or destroy any and all such information in its possession or under its control, and any copies made thereof which the recipient of said information may have made, except as the Parties by prior express written permission have agreed to retain.
  4.4. Neither Party shall be liable for disclosure of Confidential Information if made in response to a valid order of a court or authorized agency of government; provided that, if available, five (5) days’ notice first be given to the other Party so a protective order, if appropriate, may be sought by such Party. The Parties acknowledge and agree that a breach of its obligations under this Section may cause harm to the other Party for which monetary damages are not a sufficient remedy. In such event the Parties understand and agree that the non-defaulting Party shall be entitled to seek to obtain from a court of appropriate jurisdiction immediate injunctive or other equitable relief to which it may be entitled under the circumstances in addition to other remedies allowed under this Agreement and under applicable law.

 

  5. PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION.
  5.1. “Personally Identifiable Information,” includes any information that can be associated with or traced to any individual, including an individual’s name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card information, social security number, or other similar specific factual information, regardless of the media on which such information is stored (e.g., on paper or electronically) and includes such information that is generated, collected, stored or obtained as part of this Agreement.

Intellectsoft shall provide Client with access to Personally Identifiable Information at any time as Client may request. Upon termination of this Agreement all Personally Identifiable Information in the possession of Intellectsoft will be provided to Client in a manner reasonably requested by Client and all copies will be permanently removed from all Intellectsoft systems, records and backups and all subsequent use of such information by Intellectsoft will cease.

Intellectsoft shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Client against all claims for damages by any third party relating to a claim that the use of the Intellect Services as provided by Intellectsoft in accordance with the terms of this Agreement infringes any patent, patent application, copyright, trademark, trade secret or any other intellectual property right of any third party that was publicly accessible as of Effective Date (the “IP Indemnity”). Provided, however, that the IP Indemnity is conditioned upon Client using commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any intellectual property claims as requested by Intellectsoft.

THE FOREGOING LIMITED WARRANTY IS INTELLECTSOFT’S SOLE WARRANTY FOR ANY INTELLECTSOFT SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NONINFRINGEMENT AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ALL SUCH WARRANTIES BEING HEREBY FULLY DISCLAIMED.
  6.6. Limitation of Liability . Regardless of any other provision except as to the IP Indemnity of paragraph 6.4 Client Indemnity herein, Intellectsoft’s liability for damages to Client for any cause whatsoever, and regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort or other theory of liability, including negligence, will be limited to the aggregate sum of payments made to Intellectsoft by Client for the Intellectsoft Services directly related to any claim. Intellectsoft will never be liable for any damage caused wholly or partially by Client’s delivery of damaged documents, data, media or other materials to Intellectsoft. Furthermore, Intellectsoft will never be liable to Client or any other person for any indirect, special or consequential damages, including without limitation, lost profits, business revenue or goodwill, however caused and whether arising under contract, tort or other theory of liability. The foregoing limitations shall apply notwithstanding the failure of the essential purpose of any limited remedy.

  9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS
  9.1. Developer warrants that Developer will not knowingly infringe on the copyright or trade secrets of any third party in performing services under this Agreement.

  A. The third party intellectual property rights involved were known to Developer prior to delivery of the Software
  B. Client has made all payments required by this Agreement
  C. Client has given prompt notice of the claim and permitted Developer to defend, and

Las Vegas, Nevada – (February 26, 2018) – IEG Holdings Corporation (“IEG Holdings”) ( OTCQB: IEGH ) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Investment Evolution Crypto LLC, (“IE Crypto”) has signed leading blockchain software consultants, Intellectsoft LLC (“Intellectsoft”) in Silicon Valley, California, to provide blockchain development services for IEG Holdings’ cryptocurrency. In addition, IE Crypto plans to develop and launch a new Philippines remittance and loan offering to US and Australian based Filipino Overseas Foreign Workers (“OFWs”) targeting the USD $28 billion annual Filipino OFW remittance market. Prior to launching these plans, IE Crypto will investigate the legalities and economic risks and benefits of its plans.

IEG Holdings Cryptocurrency, Updated IE Crypto Plans & Philippines Cryptocurrency Remittance Plans

 

  1) IE Crypto now plans to create its own IEG Holdings cryptocurrency, and offer loans and accept loan repayments in its own IEG Holdings cryptocurrency. After further investigation, management no longer believes that it requires the backing of a gold resource for its IEG Holdings cryptocurrency in order to be able to provide its planned services utilizing the IEG Holdings cryptocurrency. Therefore, IE Crypto has terminated its previous negotiations to purchase a gold project with gold metal in the ground and prospecting licenses.
     
  2) After further investigation, IE Crypto no longer plans to use other non-IEG Holdings cryptocurrencies for loans or loan repayments. If IEG Holdings proceeds with the use of a cryptocurrency for loans or loan repayments, it currently only intends to do so using its own IEG Holdings cryptocurrency.
     
  3) IE Crypto plans to develop and launch a new Philippines remittance and loan offering to US and Australian based Filipino OFWs targeting the USD $28 billion annual remittance market.

 

IE Crypto is in the incipient stages of planning these potential future actions.

 

     

 

 

Paul Mathieson, IEG Holdings’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are very excited to have moved to the development stage for our IEG Holdings cryptocurrency. We believe potentially combining the exciting new blockchain technology with a leading sophisticated online consumer finance system, individual US state lending licenses and exposure to the Philippines $28 billion OFW remittance sector is a very exciting proposition. We aim for IEGH to leverage off its existing fintech business credentials, specifically its extensive experience in online consumer loans, to potentially be a key player in the crypto/blockchain sector.”
