Client to manage the Client Site.  
“Administrator Login” means any Login giving the user 
administration-level privileges to the Client Site.   
“Client Content” means any data or other content uploaded to the 
Client Site by Client or provided by Client to GIS for incorporation in 
the Client Site.  
“Client Site” means a web-based application providing the

Site as updated by GIS from time to time in accordance with this 
Agreement.

Customization Services.

made available by GIS to the Client.  
“Fees” means the fees payable by Client to GIS, including the Initial 
Fees and Renewal Fees.  
“GIS Content” means any data or other content made available on 
or through the Client Site, other than Client Content or Third Party 
Content.  
“Hosting Services” means the hosting, maintenance and making 
available of the Client Site (including the Administration Interface) 
by GIS.

domain names, rights in get-up, goodwill and the right to sue for 
passing off or unfair competition, rights in designs, rights in 
computer software, database rights, rights to preserve the 
confidentiality of information (including know-how and trade 
secrets) and any other intellectual property rights, including all 
applications for (and rights to apply for and be granted), renewals 
or extensions of, and rights to claim priority from, such rights and 
all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection which subsist 
or will subsist, now or in the future, in any part of the world. 
“Login” means the unique access credentials (user name and 
password or as otherwise specified by GIS from time to time) for

licensors. 
“Principal Domain” means the principal domain (being a

the Client Site.

“Services” means all services provided by GIS under this 
Agreement, including the Hosting Services and any Customization 
Services.

1.2 The headings in this Agreement do not affect its interpretation. 
Unless the context otherwise requires words importing the 
singular will include the plural and vice versa; the words “include” 
and “including” will be construed as without limitation; and any 
reference to any legislative provision will be deemed to include 
any subsequent re-enactment or amending provision. This 
Agreement negates and takes precedence over any Client terms 
and conditions.  
2 
SERVICE DELIVERY 
Subject to Client’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement 
including but not limited to clause 5.4, GIS will provide the Services 
with effect from the Agreement Date.   
 
3 
HOSTING SERVICES  
3.1 Subject to clause 4 (where applicable), GIS will make the Client Site 
publicly available at the Principal Domain.  
3.2 GIS will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Client 
Site available and online for at least 99% of each calendar month. 
Client agrees and understands that the following will not be taken 
into account when measuring GIS’s performance against that 
target: (a) routine scheduled maintenance by GIS or its internet 
provider or hosting facility; (b) loss of connectivity by Client to the 
Client Site due to reasons which are beyond GIS’s control, such as 
problems with Client’s own network and/or computers or with any 
internet infrastructure.  
3.3 Where Client and GIS agree to use of a Custom Domain then the 
Custom Domain will map to the Principal Domain, so that end 
users of the Client Site access the Client Site at the Custom Domain 
and the Principal Domain redirects to the Custom Domain.  
3.4 Any Custom Domain is subject to GIS’s approval (not to be 
unreasonably withheld) and must not (a) be misleading; (b) 
infringe the IPRs of any third party; or (c) incorporate any of the 
Marks. Except as agreed in writing by GIS, any Custom Domain will 
be registered in the name of GIS and belong to GIS. Any change to 
the Custom Domain may be subject to additional charges at GIS’s 
standard rates.  
4 
CUSTOMIZATION SERVICES  
4.1 The provisions of this clause 4 apply only where the Term Sheet 
specifies that GIS is to provide any Customization Services.  
4.2 GIS will carry out the Customization Services to prepare the 
Customized Site for launch. 
4.3 Once the Customized Site is ready for the Client’s review, GIS will 
notify the Client, giving instructions on how the Customized Site 
can be accessed for approval by the Client.

4142-2887-6810, v. 8 
4.4 The Client will not unreasonably withhold or delay approval of the 
Customized Site. If the Client reasonably considers that the 
Customized Site fails to meet the requirements of this Agreement 
then the Client will notify GIS, giving full details, and the Client and 
GIS will cooperate in good faith to resolve the issues raised by the 
Client.  
4.5 Once the Client has approved the Customized Site, the Client will 
specify when it wishes the Customized Site to become publicly 
available, to be not less than seven days after the Client’s approval 
(or such shorter period as GIS may agree).  
4.6 The Client acknowledges that any target date for the Customized 
Site to become publicly available (“Go-Live Date”) set out in the 
Term Sheet is an estimate. GIS will use reasonable endeavors to 
achieve that target Go-Live Date, but the Client acknowledges that 
this is dependent upon the Client meeting its own obligations 
under this Agreement and may be affected by factors beyond GIS’s 
control. The actual Go-Live Date will be the date on which the 
Customized Site becomes publicly available under clause 4.5.  
4.7 GIS is under no obligation to make the Customized Site publicly 
available until it has received payment in full of the Initial Fees.  
5 
PROVISION OF THE SERVICES  
5.1 GIS will retain the sole and exclusive right to control and direct the 
manner or means by which the Services are performed, and may 
employ or subcontract others with respect to such services.  
5.2 Nothing in this Agreement entitles Client to actual possession of 
the Software or of the Client Site; use of the Software and the 
Client Site is provided on an application services basis only.  
5.3 Any changes or additions to the Services required by Client must 
be agreed upon in writing by the parties and subject to payment 
of any agreed additional fees and expenses. 
5.4 Client will cooperate with GIS and provide such assistance as GIS 
may reasonably request in relation to the services to be provided 
to Client under this Agreement, including but not limited to efforts 
to obtain all necessary third party consents and approvals.  
6 
USERS  
6.1 GIS will issue one (1) Administrator Login to the Client (or as 
otherwise agreed by GIS).  
6.2 Client acknowledges that any Administrator Login gives the user 
full access to the Client Site and the Administration Interface, 
including the ability to add or delete Client Content without 
restriction and to add or delete Users or Logins.  
6.3 The Administration Interface gives the Client the ability to create 
further Logins for the Users. Each Login will have varying privileges 
and access rights as specified in the Documentation. Client is 
responsible for all activity that takes place under each Login, and 
it is Client’s responsibility to ensure that each Login is kept secure 
and not shared by more than one individual. 
6.4 Each User may be required to agree to GIS’s individual user terms 
and privacy policy in order to access the Client Site using their 
Login.  
7 
CLIENT OBLIGATIONS  
7.1 Client will not obscure any legal or regulatory notices or links to 
legal or regulatory notices incorporated into the Client Site 
(including where the Client Site is embedded within another 
website).  
7.2 Client will comply with all applicable laws (including laws relating 
to data protection, privacy and direct marketing) in its use of the 
Services, including its use of GIS Content and Third Party Content. 
This includes Client ensuring that it includes on the Client Site any 
privacy notices, disclaimers or other notices that Client is required 
to provide to users.  
7.3 Client will not incorporate GIS Content or Third Party Content 
within any database or other system outside the Services without 
the prior written consent of GIS.  
8 
CLIENT CONTENT  
8.1 Client is solely responsible for any Client Content uploaded to or 
otherwise made available through the Client Site. Client must 
ensure that all Users are made aware of the terms on which Client 
Content is uploaded and used, including the licenses granted to 
GIS under this clause 8.   
8.2 Client (or the User uploading the Client Content, as applicable) 
retains ownership of and responsibility for all Client Content.  
8.3 Client grants (and will ensure that all Users who upload Client 
Content grant) to GIS a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-
free license to copy, distribute, make available, modify, perform 
and otherwise use Client Content for the purposes of:  
(a) providing the Services; and  
(b) making 
Client 
Content 
available 
through 
other 
ZoomProspector sites managed or provided by GIS.  
8.4 The Client must (and must ensure that all Users) only submit Client 
Content which they have the right to upload and make available 
through the Client Site.  
8.5 GIS has no obligation to monitor or moderate Client Content, but 
GIS has the right to remove any Client Content that GIS considers 
(in its sole discretion) to violate the terms of this Agreement or to 
expose GIS or its other clients or users to any legal liability or 
unacceptable commercial or reputational risk.  
9 
GIS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY  
9.1 Client acknowledges that all IPRs in the Services and the Software 
belong and will belong to GIS or the relevant third-party owners 
(as the case may be), and Client has no rights in or to the Software 
other than the right to make use of the Client Site as hosted by GIS 
under this Agreement. 
9.2 Client will not (and will not permit any third party to): 
(a) copy, adapt, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, 
modify, adapt or make error corrections to the Software in 
whole or in part; or  
(b) make any use of the Services or access the Client Site for the 
purpose of creating a competing service or any site, service 
or application that fulfils a similar purpose to any of the 
Services or the Software.  
9.3 Client acknowledges and agrees that: (a) all use of GIS’s Marks 
under this Agreement inures to the benefit of GIS; (b) GIS’s Marks 
will remain the exclusive property of GIS; (c) nothing in this 
Agreement will confer upon Client any right of ownership in GIS’s 
Marks; and (d) Client will not now or in the future contest the 
validity of GIS’s Marks or take any action impairing the rights of GIS 
in its Marks.

4142-2887-6810, v. 8 
10 WARRANTIES  
10.1 Each party warrants and represents to the other that it has the full 
power and authority to enter into this Agreement. 
10.2 GIS will use reasonable commercial endeavors to provide the 
Services in a professional and workmanlike manner. 
10.3 GIS undertakes at its own expense to defend Client or, at its 
option, settle any claim or action brought against Client alleging 
that the Client’s receipt or use of the Services in accordance with 
the terms of this license infringes the US or UK Intellectual 
Property Rights of a third party (“Claim”) and will be responsible 
for any reasonable losses, damages, costs (including legal fees) and 
expenses incurred by or awarded against Client as a result of or in 
connection with any such Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, this 
clause will not apply where the Claim in question is attributable to 
(a) Client Content, or (b) use of the Services other than in 
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This will be Client’s 
exclusive remedy and GIS’s only liability in respect of Claims and 
for the avoidance of doubt is subject to clause 11.6. 
10.4 If any third party makes a Claim, or notifies an intention to make a 
Claim against Client, GIS’s obligations under clause 10.3 are 
conditional on Client: (a) as soon as reasonably practicable, giving 
written notice of the Claim to GIS, specifying the nature of the 
Claim in reasonable detail;(b) not making any admission of liability, 
agreement or compromise in relation to the Claim without the 
prior written consent of GIS (such consent not to be unreasonably 
conditioned, withheld or delayed); (c) giving GIS and its 
professional advisers access at reasonable times (on reasonable 
prior notice) to its premises and its officers, directors, employees, 
agents, representatives or advisers, and to any relevant assets, 
accounts, documents and records within the power or control of 
Client, so as to enable GIS and its professional advisers to examine 
them and to take copies (at GIS’s expense) for the purpose of 
assessing the Claim; and (d) subject to GIS providing security to 
Client to Client’s reasonable satisfaction against any claim, liability, 
costs, expenses, damages or losses which may be incurred, taking 
such action as GIS may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, 
compromise or defend the Claim. 
10.5 If any Claim is made, or in GIS’s reasonable opinion is likely to be 
made, against Client, GIS may at its sole option and expense: 
(a) procure for Client the right to continue to use the Services (or 
any part of them) in accordance with the terms of this license; 
(b) modify the Services so that they cease to be infringing; or 
(c) terminate this Agreement immediately by notice in writing to 
Client and refund a pro rata proportion of the Fees paid by Client 
in respect of Services not yet provided as at the date of 
termination. 
11 LIABILITY  
11.1 It is hereby agreed that except as expressly set out in this 
Agreement and to the extent permissible by law, all warranties, 
conditions, representations, terms or undertakings, express or 
implied, statutory or otherwise are hereby excluded.  
11.2 Without limitation to clause 11.1, Client acknowledges and agrees 
that Third Party Content comes from a variety of sources and is 
provided on an “as is” basis. GIS makes no representation or 
warranty concerning the accuracy or completeness of any Third 
Party Content, or of the suitability of that Third Party Content for 
the needs of the Client or any end-users. Any projections, 
opinions, assumptions or estimates used are for example only and 
do not represent the current or future performance of any 
business. 
11.3 Client acknowledges and agrees that neither GIS nor its partners 
who have been involved in the creation, production or delivery of 
the Client Site will be liable for: a) any indirect, consequential, 
incidental or special loss or damages whatsoever or (b) for any loss 
of profits, revenues, income or goodwill or loss of data or 
anticipated savings arising from this Agreement, in each case 
whether reasonably foreseeable or actually foreseen and 
regardless of the cause of action. 
11.4 GIS will not have any liability to Client to the extent such liability 
arises as a result of a breach of this Agreement by Client. 
11.5 GIS does not exclude or limits its liability for death or personal 
injury caused by its negligence, for fraud or for fraudulent 
misrepresentation or for any liability which cannot be excluded or 
limited by law. 
11.6 Without prejudice to GIS’s right to payment of Fees owing and 
subject to clause 11.5, the aggregate liability of GIS for any breach 
of this Agreement or any representation, statement, negligent act 
or omission arising under or in connection with this Agreement will 
be limited to direct damages which in no event will exceed 125% 
the aggregate amount of the Fees paid or (if greater) payable by 
Client to GIS under this Agreement.  
12 PAYMENT 
12.1 Client will pay the Fees as set out in the Term Sheet. If no payment 
term is specified on the invoice, Client will pay the Fees within 30 
days of the date of the GIS invoice. Failure to pay undisputed Fees 
on time will constitute a material breach of this Agreement. Client 
will bear any additional costs arising from Client’s failure to comply 
with its obligations under this Agreement. Any additional Services 
provided by GIS that are not set out in the Term Sheet will be 
subject to additional Fees, to be agreed between GIS and Client.  
12.2 The Fees and all other charges are exclusive of value added tax 
(VAT) or any other sales or similar taxes which are or may be 
applicable. The Fee will be paid to GIS in full without deduction of 
any taxes, withholding taxes, charges and other applicable duties 
which may be imposed. If Client is required by law to make a set-
off, deduction or withholding then it will pay such additional 
amount to ensure that the net amount received by GIS is equal to 
the amount GIS would have been entitled to receive under this 
Agreement in the absence of any requirement to make such set-
off, deduction or withholding. Client will provide GIS with a valid 
tax certificate evidencing such amount withheld within 30 days of 
such set-off, deduction or withholding. 
12.3 If any sum payable under this Agreement is not paid within 7 days 
of the due date then (without prejudice to GIS’s other rights and 
remedies) GIS reserves the right to: a) charge interest on such sum 
on a day-to-day basis from the due date to the date of payment 
(both dates inclusive) at the rate of 4 per cent above the base rate 
of Barclays Bank Plc from time to time in force; and b) suspend the 
provision of the Services. 
13 TERM AND TERMINATION 
13.1 This Agreement will commence on the Agreement Date and will 
continue in force for the Initial Term. It will then renew 
automatically for further periods of one year (each a “Renewal 
Term”) unless terminated by either party giving not less than 30 
days’ notice in writing, to expire on the last day of an Initial Term 
or Renewal Term.

4142-2887-6810, v. 8 
13.2 Either party may terminate this Agreement if: (a) the other party 
is in material or persistent breach of any of the terms of this 
Agreement and in the case of a breach capable of remedy having 
been notified of any such breach has failed to remedy the same 
within 14 days; or (b) the other party is dissolved or ceases to carry 
on its business or has a liquidator, receiver or administrative 
receiver appointed to it or over any part of its undertaking or 
assets or passes a resolution for its winding up or a court of 
competent jurisdiction will make an administration order or 
liquidation order or similar order, or will enter into any voluntary 
arrangement with its creditors, or will be unable to pay its debts 
as they fall due or any analogous event occurs to the other party 
in any jurisdiction. 
13.3 GIS may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect if Client 
(or any of its shareholders or directors or equivalent) becomes 
subject to any Sanction, or continuation of the Agreement would 
(in the reasonable opinion of GIS) expose GIS or any of its affiliated 
companies to any Sanction, where “Sanction” means any sanction, 
prohibition or restriction under United Nations resolutions or the 
trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations of the European 
Union, United Kingdom, Hong Kong or United States of America. 
13.4 On termination for any reason all rights granted to Client under 
this Agreement will cease and Client will immediately return to 
GIS, GIS’s proprietary and confidential information, including 
software, if any, and all copies and documentation of the 
foregoing, along with a signed written statement certifying Client’s 
compliance with this clause 13.4. 
13.5 Any provision of this agreement which expressly or by implication 
is intended to come into or continue in force on or after 
termination of this agreement will remain in full force and effect. 
13.6 Any termination of this Agreement is without prejudice to any 
other rights or remedies a party may be entitled to under this 
Agreement or at law and will not affect any accrued rights or 
liabilities of either party. Termination of this Agreement will not 
relieve Client of its obligation to pay GIS any outstanding Fees.  
14 CONFIDENTIALITY 
14.1 Except as expressly permitted under this Agreement, each party 
agrees to keep confidential (both before, during and after the 
Term) the terms of this Agreement and all information, whether 
written or oral, concerning the business or affairs of the other 
(including information relating to the other party’s customers or 
suppliers, financial information, projections, technology, product 
ideas, marketing plans or business plans) that it has received or 
obtained from the other or may receive or obtain from the other 
and will not use the same without the prior written consent of the 
disclosing party for any purpose except as expressly permitted 
under this Agreement. This obligation will not apply to information 
which is in the public domain (other than as a result of a breach of 
any confidentiality obligation) or in the case of any disclosure 
required by law provided that Client will use all reasonable 
endeavors and act in good faith to consult with GIS wherever 
practicable before disclosing such information.  
14.2 Each party agrees not to make any announcement regarding this 
Agreement or the activities associated with it without the prior 
written consent of the other party, save that GIS may include the 
Client name and logo on its websites and in any list of clients or 
marketing materials issued by GIS and describe the project and the 
Services provided by GIS to Client. 
15 FORCE MAJEURE 
With the exception of Client’s obligation to pay the Fees, neither 
party will be liable for any failure to perform its obligations under 
this Agreement if such performance is hindered or prevented by 
any matter beyond the reasonable control of the party whose 
performance is hindered or prevented (including without 
limitation by reason of any failure, interruption, or degradation of 
any third party telecommunications network or system or 
hardware or the Internet or any part of it) (a “Force Majeure 
Event”). If a Force Majeure Event continues for more than one 
month then either party may immediately terminate this 
Agreement on written notice to the other (provided that the Force 
Majeure Event is still continuing on the date of that notice). 
16 GENERAL 
16.1 This Agreement does not confer any exclusive rights to Client. 
16.2 No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified, 
discharged or terminated other than by the express written 
agreement of the parties. 
16.3 No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or 
privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof 
nor will any single or partial exercise by either party of any right, 
power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or the 
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 
16.4 Any notice, consent or other communication required to be given 
hereunder will be made in writing to the Relationship Manager at 
the address set out on the Term Sheet (and when given by Client 
also copied to GIS’s General Counsel at The Financial Times, 
Number One Southwark Bridge, London SE1 9HL) and will be 
delivered by hand, courier or recorded delivery to the other party 
and will be deemed to have been received (if delivered by hand) 
at the time of the delivery or (if sent by courier or recorded 
delivery) upon the date of receipt (as evidenced by signature of 
the receiving party’s representative).  
16.5 Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to create a partnership, 
agency or joint venture between the parties. 
16.6 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the 
parties as to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous 
communications, representations and arrangements, either 
written or oral, and each party hereby acknowledges that no 
reliance is placed on any representation made by the other party 
before the Agreement Date but not embodied in this Agreement. 
16.7 If any provisions of this Agreement will be held illegal or 
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction then such 
provisions will be severed and the remainder of this Agreement 
will remain in full force and effect unless the business purpose of 
this Agreement is substantially frustrated thereby in which case 
this Agreement will automatically terminate. 
16.8 This Agreement may not be assigned, licensed, sub-licensed or 
otherwise transferred by Client without the prior written consent 
of GIS. 
16.9 Anyone who is not a direct party to this Agreement will not have 
any rights to enforce its terms. The rights of the parties to 
terminate, rescind or agree any variation, waiver or settlement 
under this agreement are not subject to the consent of any other 
person.
