Recitals

WHEREAS, the Client desires to obtain, and the Service Provider desires to provide, certain professional services as may from time to time be agreed upon by the parties; and

WHEREAS, the parties wish to establish a master agreement to govern the general terms and conditions applicable to all such future professional services engagements, with specific details of each engagement to be set forth in separate Statements of Work (SOWs).

Term and Termination

This Agreement shall commence on {{effective_date}} and shall continue for an initial period of {{initial_term_years}} years, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions herein. Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive periods of {{renewal_term_years}} year(s) each, unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least {{notice_period_days}} days prior to the end of the then-current term.

Either party may terminate this Agreement for material breach, if such breach is not cured within {{cure_period_days}} days of receiving written notice thereof. Either party may also terminate this Agreement for convenience by providing {{notice_period_days}} days written notice to the other party.

Scope of Services and Statements of Work (SOWs)

The Service Provider shall perform professional services for the Client as described in individual Statements of Work (SOWs) signed by both parties. Each SOW shall be governed by the terms of this Master Professional Services Agreement.

Each SOW shall include, at a minimum: a description of the services to be performed, deliverables, timelines, payment terms specific to that SOW, and any special conditions. In the event of a conflict between the terms of an SOW and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, unless the SOW explicitly states otherwise and references the specific clause of this Agreement being amended.

Fees and Payment

Fees for services rendered under each SOW shall be as specified in the respective SOW. Unless otherwise stated in an SOW, invoices shall be submitted {{payment_frequency}} and are due and payable within {{payment_due_days}} days of the invoice date.

Late payments may be subject to interest at a rate of {{interest_rate_percentage}}% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, which shall be borne by the Client.

Confidentiality

Both parties agree to treat all non-public information received from the other party as confidential, including without limitation, business plans, financial information, client lists, and technical data (collectively, "Confidential Information"). Neither party shall disclose or use the other party's Confidential Information for any purpose other than as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. This obligation of confidentiality shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of {{confidentiality_period_years}} years.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise specified in an SOW, all intellectual property rights in any materials, deliverables, or works developed by the Service Provider specifically for the Client under an SOW shall vest in the Client upon full payment for the services. The Service Provider grants the Client a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any pre-existing intellectual property of the Service Provider incorporated into the deliverables.

Limitation of Liability

Neither party shall be liable to the other for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits or loss of business opportunity, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. The total liability of the Service Provider to the Client for any and all claims arising out of this Agreement or any SOW shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client to the Service Provider under the relevant SOW in the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of {{governing_country_or_province}}.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall first be attempted to be resolved through good faith negotiations between the parties. If successful negotiation is not possible within {{negotiation_period_days}} days, the dispute shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the rules of {{arbitration_body_name}}, situated in {{arbitration_city}}, {{arbitration_country}}.

Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with any SOWs executed hereunder, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, and representations, whether written or oral. No amendment or modification to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by authorised representatives of both parties.
