Terms and Conditions
In these terms and conditions, DEFEND means DEFEND Limited (New Zealand company number 4067798) or related company (as that term is defined in the Companies Act 1993) that supplies any services to the purchaser of such services (Customer).The terms and conditions set out below apply to the supply of Goods and Services made by DEFEND to the Customer. By placing an Order with DEFEND the Customer agrees that it is bound by these Terms of Trade and that the Customer’s own terms and conditions do not apply.

Where the Customer has entered into a separate written supply agreement with DEFEND, these Terms shall also
apply except to the extent that there is any inconsistency between these Terms and the separate supply
agreement, in which case the relevant provisions of the supply agreement shall prevail.

Service Provision
1.0 DEFEND will supply services (Services) to the Customer as agreed between the parties in writing and recorded in a signed document, engagement letter (Letter of Engagement), purchase order or statement of work (Statement of Work).

The Customer and DEFEND shall engage in discussions to initiate the renewal process for the Initial Service Period, ensuring that such discussions take place at least 30 days prior to the specified end date of the Service Period. During these discussions, the Customer shall have the option to notify DEFEND of its intention to either terminate or extend the Service. In the event that a renewal contract is not in effect upon the conclusion of the Initial Service Period due to factors such as delays in procurement or signatory processes, both parties shall enter into a month-to-month Service Period to maintain uninterrupted Service continuity. Upon the commencement of the month-to-month Service Period, the Customer will be granted a 90-day window to either
renew or terminate the contract. If the Customer chooses to terminate the contract at any point, 60 days written notice is required.

1.1 In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between these terms and conditions and any Statement of Work,
the Statement of Work will take precedence.

1.2 DEFEND agrees to comply with the Customer’s relevant policies and procedures governing on-site access
that may be required for DEFEND to perform the Services and which have been notified to DEFEND in advance.

1.3 DEFEND will ensure that it deploys appropriately qualified and experienced personnel to supply the Services,
and that all Services are provided with reasonable skill, care, and diligence.

1.4 The Customer will be entitled to review the Services to establish whether they meet the requirements
specified in the relevant Statement of Work. DEFEND will inform the Customer of the date on which any Services
are ready for acceptance. The parties will agree the scope, timing, testing criteria and other relevant matters prior
to acceptance testing taking place.

1.5 To the extent that any of the Services do not materially meet the requirements specified in the Statement of
Work, DEFEND may at its option, following consultation with the Customer:

(a) replace or re-perform all or any part of the Services at no additional cost to the Customer; or

(b) refund to the Customer an appropriate proportion (as reasonably determined by DEFEND) of the fees paid by
in respect of such Services.

1.6 The Customer will complete all of the tasks allocated to the Customer in a Statement of Work in a timely
manner. DEFEND will be relieved of any failure or delay in performing its obligations to the extent that such
failure or delay results from any act or omission of the Customer or any of its employees or contractors.

Payment
2.0 Unless requested otherwise, invoices will be sent by email and all accounts must be paid by the 20th of the
month following.  If any item or part of any item in an invoice is disputed, the Customer shall notify DEFEND prior
to the last business day of the month in which the invoice is submitted specifying the item disputed.  Payment of
a disputed invoice may be deferred only in respect of the disputed part of the invoice.

respect of the supply of services, which the Customer must pay to DEFEND in addition to the fees.

management; or
