Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose the other party’s Confidential Information if and to the extent that such disclosure is required by applicable law, provided that the receiving party uses reasonable efforts to limit the disclosure and provides the disclosing party a reasonable opportunity to review the disclosure before it is made and to interpose its own objection to the disclosure.

Neither party hereto shall in any way sell, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of any of the rights, privileges, duties and obligations granted or imposed upon it under this Agreement; provided, however, either party shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an Affiliate. Assignment of this agreement by either party to a successor organization by merger or acquisition does not require the consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 11.2 shall be void.

11.3Compliance with Laws.

(A)General. Supplier shall be responsible for complying with all laws that apply to Supplier in its capacity as a provider of the Services, including obtaining necessary approvals and permits required by such laws to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Customer shall be responsible for complying with all laws that apply to it in connection with its receipt or use of the Services, including obtaining any necessary approvals and permits required by such laws. Customer will be responsible to ensure that Supplier’s performance of Services in accordance with agreed services descriptions meets Customer’s legal and regulatory requirements.

(B) Sales Support. If Services include sales support activities, Customer shall ensure that materials provided to Supplier, such as call scripts and leads, comply with applicable laws and regulations, including any required instructions or disclosures. Unless agreed otherwise in an SOW, Customer will be responsible for screening prospect lists against applicable “do not call” or similar registries, documenting individual opt-out requests in its own registry, and obtaining any necessary third party consents.

(C)Export. The parties acknowledge that certain transactions hereunder and equipment, software and technical data to be provided hereunder may be subject to export controls and sanctions laws and regulations, including those of the United States and other countries that prohibit or limit export or services for certain uses or to certain end users. Neither party shall export or re-export any such items or any direct product thereof or undertake any transaction in violation of any such laws or regulations.

(D)Data Privacy. For purposes of data processing or any trans-border data flows that are subject to applicable data privacy laws, Customer shall be deemed the “controller” of personal information provided by Customer and shall determine the purposes and means for which such personal information may be accessed and used by Supplier. Supplier shall be deemed a “processor” of such personal information and shall process such information in accordance with the Customer’s direction. To the extent the parties and/or our respective Affiliates execute data transfer agreements for purposes of compliance with applicable data privacy laws, such agreements shall be subject to the terms of, this Agreement. Customer shall be responsible for obtaining all consents from, and providing all notices to, individuals to enable Supplier to process such personal information. Customer agrees that Supplier, its Affiliates, and contractors may use Customer personnel contact information (including names, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses) in connection with its business relationship anywhere it does business.

(E)Changes in Law. Supplier may, on written notice to Customer, adjust pricing to account for any change in law that materially affects Supplier’s costs related to the services. If any such adjustments exceed, in the aggregate, 5% of the charges payable under an SOW, the parties will discuss in good faith alternatives, such as changes in delivery locations, to mitigate adjustments in price. If the parties are not able to agree on a mutually acceptable alternative, either party may terminate the affected SOW upon 90 days’ prior written notice. In the event of such termination, in addition to other amounts payable hereunder, Customer will reimburse Supplier for its reasonable and actual wind-down costs.

11.4Publicity. Supplier may refer to its relationship with Customer in internal communications and in connection with its sales and marketing activities. Otherwise, neither party grants the other the right to use its (or any of its Affiliates’) trademarks, trade names, or other designations in any promotion or publication without prior written consent.

11.5Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, except in those instances where removal or elimination of such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or


Concentrix and SYNNEX Confidential	Page 7 of 8

provisions would result in a failure of consideration under this Agreement, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall be severed and shall not affect any other provision hereof. Furthermore, the severed provision shall be replaced by a provision which comes closest to such severed provision, or part thereof, in language and intent, without being invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

11.6Force Majeure and Impairment of Performance.

(A)Except for payment obligations, neither party shall be liable to the other for any delay in performance or failure to perform, in whole or in part, due to labor dispute, strike, war or act of war (whether an actual declaration is made or not), insurrection, riot, civil commotion, act of public enemy, epidemic, accident, fire, flood, earthquake, or other act of God, act of any governmental authority, judicial action, or other causes beyond the reasonable control of such party. If any event of force majeure occurs, the party affected by such event shall promptly notify the other party of such event and take all reasonable actions to avoid the effect of such event.

(B)Supplier shall be relieved from its obligations under this Agreement to the extent performance is impaired by the Customer’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement or by the acts or omissions of the Customer’s employees or representatives.

(C)Customer is responsible for ensuring that its systems are adequately secured against unauthorized intrusion. Supplier will not be responsible for any losses or damages to the extent arising from Customer’s failure to implement and maintain reasonable data security and transaction monitoring measures in systems under its control or supervision. Customer will promptly advise Supplier if it identifies any activity that may indicate an issue within any of Concentrix’s systems or operations.

11.7Relationship of the Parties. Supplier and Customer are and shall be independent contractors to one another, and nothing herein shall be deemed to cause this Agreement to create an agency, partnership, fiduciary relationship, or joint venture between the parties. This Agreement does not create any right or cause of action for any third party.

11.8Disputes. Both parties agree to negotiate in good faith the settlement of any disputes that may arise under this Agreement. If necessary, such disputes shall be escalated to appropriate senior management of each party. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential, will be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence, and shall not be admissible in any proceeding between the parties. Except for disputes arising under Section 5 (Proprietary Rights), Section 6 (Confidentiality), and Section 7 (Staffing), in the event that such good faith settlements fail, any and all disputes and controversies of every kind and nature between the parties arising out of or in connection with the existence, construction, validity, interpretation, or meaning, performance, non-performance, enforcement, operation, breach, continuance, or termination of this Agreement shall be submitted to binding arbitration, pursuant to the Arbitration Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”), before a single arbitrator in the state of California. In the event the parties cannot agree on the arbitrator, then the President of the ICC (or his/her nominee) shall select an appropriate arbitrator with experience in commercial disputes related to technology services. In the event of any litigation or arbitration arising out of this Agreement or its enforcement by either party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, as part of any judgment or award, reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.

11.9Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California without regard to its conflicts of laws principles, and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply.

11.10Notices. All written notices required by this Agreement must be delivered in person or by means evidenced by a delivery receipt and will be effective upon receipt. Notices related to breach, termination, and indemnification must also be provided to the other party at the address specified on the signature page of this Agreement, if any. Additional information or requirements regarding notices may be set out in an SOW.

11.11Waiver. The exercise or waiver, in whole or in part, of any right, remedy, or duty provided for in this Agreement will not constitute the waiver of any other right, remedy, or duty hereunder.
