3.1 Unless expressly stated otherwise in a signed proposal or addendum, all Services are provided on an effort-based (inspanningsverbintenis) basis within the meaning of Article 7:401 of the Dutch Civil Code. Sales Surge commits to performing Services with the care of a professional service provider, but does NOT guarantee any specific results, outcomes, revenue increases, cost savings, conversion rates, lead volumes or other business improvements. 3.2 Any projection, estimate, forecast, ROI calculation, benchmark, demo, scan output or potential outcome shared during sales conversations, Quick Scan assessments, AI Sprint sessions, proposals or service delivery is illustrative only and does not constitute a guarantee, warranty or binding commitment. 3.3 The success of implementations depends on numerous factors outside Sales Surge's control, including but not limited to: - Client's internal adoption, change management and end-user behaviour - Quality, completeness, accuracy and lawfulness of data provided by Client - Client's timely decision-making, approvals, feedback and resource allocation - Behaviour, pricing, availability, breaking changes, deprecations and updates of third-party software, APIs, AI models or platforms - Market conditions, regulatory changes and external economic factors - Client's existing processes, technology stack, data quality and organisational culture 3.4 A Result-Based Engagement (resultaatsverbintenis) only applies when (i) explicitly stated in a signed proposal or separate addendum, (ii) specific, objectively measurable success criteria are defined in writing, and (iii) both parties have signed and dated the relevant document. 3.5 The Client expressly acknowledges that engaging Services does not guarantee any particular outcome and waives any claim based on unmet expectations regarding results.

The Client acknowledges that AI output may contain inaccuracies, hallucinations or biases and must be reviewed by the Client before being relied upon. Sales Surge will not knowingly deploy AI systems that fall under the prohibited practices of Article 5 of the EU AI Act, and will respect transparency obligations applicable to limited-risk AI systems. Where the Client itself becomes a deployer of an AI system delivered or configured by Sales Surge, the Client is responsible for compliance with the EU AI Act, including risk classification, transparency, human oversight and (where applicable) fundamental rights impact assessments. 7.6 Neither party may use the other's trademarks, names or logos without prior written consent, except as set out in Section 11.

8.1 Both parties shall maintain strict confidentiality of all non-public information disclosed in the context of the Agreement, including business, technical, financial, commercial, customer, prospect, strategic and personnel information ('Confidential Information'). 8.2 Confidential Information may only be disclosed: - To employees, contractors or sub-processors with a need to know and bound by equivalent confidentiality obligations - When required by law, court order or competent authority (with prior notice to the other party where legally permitted) - With prior written consent of the disclosing party 8.3 Confidentiality obligations apply during the Agreement and survive for 5 years after termination. Trade secrets within the meaning of the Dutch Trade Secrets Protection Act (Wet bescherming bedrijfsgeheimen) remain protected for as long as they qualify as such. 8.4 Exceptions: information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving party, was already lawfully known prior to disclosure, was independently developed without use of the Confidential Information, or was rightfully received from a third party without confidentiality obligations. 8.5 Each party shall apply the same level of care to the other party's Confidential Information as it applies to its own, but in any event no less than reasonable care.

9.1 Both parties shall comply with the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), the Dutch GDPR Implementation Act (UAVG), the Dutch Telecommunications Act (cookies/electronic marketing) and, where applicable, the NIS2 Directive as implemented in the Dutch Cybersecurity Act. 9.2 Where Sales Surge processes personal data on behalf of the Client, Sales Surge acts as a processor and the Client as controller. The parties shall conclude a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) compliant with Article 28 GDPR, which forms an integral part of the Agreement. 9.3 Sub-processors: the Client provides a general authorisation for Sales Surge to engage sub-processors (such as cloud providers, CRM platforms, AI providers and email services). A current list is available on request. Sales Surge will notify the Client of intended changes; the Client may object on reasonable, documented grounds within 14 days. 9.4 International transfers: where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, Sales Surge relies on adequacy decisions (including the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where applicable), the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (2021/914) and additional safeguards as required by the EDPB and the Schrems II ruling. 9.5 Sales Surge implements appropriate technical and organisational measures (Article 32 GDPR), including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, logging, MFA, secure development practices and an incident response procedure. 9.6 In the event of a personal data breach, Sales Surge shall notify the Client without undue delay and in any event within 48 hours of becoming aware, to enable the Client to comply with its 72-hour notification obligation under Article 33 GDPR. 9.7 The Client remains responsible for the lawful basis, purpose, transparency, data minimisation and exercise of data subject rights regarding personal data within its systems.

12.1 Project-based engagements continue until completion of the agreed scope or earlier termination in accordance with this Section. 12.2 Retainer or other ongoing services have an initial term as stated in the proposal (default: 12 months) and renew automatically for successive 12-month periods unless terminated in writing with at least 2 months' notice prior to the renewal date. 12.3 Either party may terminate the Agreement with immediate effect, without judicial intervention and without owing damages, if: - The other party materially breaches the Agreement and fails to cure within 14 days after written notice - The other party is granted a moratorium on payments, files for bankruptcy, is declared bankrupt, applies for the WHOA proceedings or otherwise loses control over its assets - Continued performance becomes impossible or unlawful 12.4 Sales Surge may suspend the Services without being in default if the Client is in default of any payment or other material obligation. 12.5 Upon termination: - Client remains liable for all fees for work performed and committed costs up to the termination date - Sales Surge will provide reasonable transition assistance at standard rates - Each party shall return or, at the other party's option, securely destroy Confidential Information within 30 days, save for statutory retention obligations - Licences granted under Section 7 survive only if all fees have been paid 12.6 No refunds are provided for prepaid fees unless Sales Surge is in proven material breach. 12.7 Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14 and 15 survive termination.

13.1 Neither party is liable for failures or delays caused by force majeure within the meaning of Article 6:75 Dutch Civil Code, including but not limited to: natural disasters, pandemics and epidemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government measures (including export controls and sanctions), strikes, energy shortages, internet, telecommunications or cloud outages, cyber-attacks, AI provider outages, and breaking changes, deprecations or unavailability of third-party software, APIs or AI models. 13.2 The affected party must notify the other party promptly and use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact. 13.3 If force majeure continues for more than 60 days, either party may terminate the Agreement in writing without liability, save for amounts due for work already performed.

14.1 During the term of the Agreement and for 12 months thereafter, the Client shall not, directly or indirectly, hire, engage as a contractor or solicit any employee, contractor or sub-processor of Sales Surge who has been involved in the Services, without prior written consent of Sales Surge. 14.2 Breach of this Section results in an immediately payable, non-mitigable fixed penalty of €25,000 per violation, plus €1,000 per day the violation continues, without prejudice to Sales Surge's right to claim full damages.

15.1 Governing law: this Agreement and all matters arising out of or in connection with it (whether contractual or non-contractual) are governed exclusively by the laws of the Netherlands. The applicability of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is excluded. 15.2 Dispute resolution: - Step 1: good-faith negotiation between authorised representatives (minimum 14 days) - Step 2: mediation under the rules of the Netherlands Mediation Institute (MfN) or another mutually agreed mediator - Step 3: if mediation fails or is refused, disputes shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent court in Amsterdam, the Netherlands 15.3 Notwithstanding the above, Sales Surge may seek injunctive or summary relief (kort geding) in any competent court to protect intellectual property rights, confidential information or to enforce payment. 15.4 Each party bears its own costs unless the court orders otherwise. 15.5 The parties shall continue to perform their obligations during dispute resolution to the extent reasonably possible.

16.1 Entire agreement: these Terms, together with signed proposals/SoWs and addenda, constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior agreements, representations and understandings. 16.2 Amendments: no modification is valid unless in writing and signed by both parties (electronic signature accepted). 16.3 Sales Surge may amend these Terms unilaterally for valid reasons (e.g. changes in law, services or operations). Material changes will be notified at least 30 days in advance. If the Client does not accept the changes, the Client may terminate any continuing engagement in writing before the changes take effect. 16.4 Assignment: the Client may not assign or transfer the Agreement without prior written consent. Sales Surge may assign the Agreement to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition or restructuring. 16.5 Waiver: the failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of the right to enforce it later. 16.6 Notices: all formal notices must be in writing and sent by email with confirmation of receipt or by registered post to the addresses stated in the proposal or to the registered office of the receiving party. 16.7 Severability: if any provision is found invalid, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions continue in effect. 16.8 Language: these Terms are available in English and Dutch. In case of conflict between language versions, the Dutch version prevails for the purposes of interpretation under Dutch law. 16.9 Whistleblowing: Sales Surge complies with the Dutch House for Whistleblowers Act (Wet bescherming klokkenluiders) and supports lawful reporting of suspected wrongdoing.
