As complete and final payment for the Work, Client will pay Social Link the fees for the Work as set forth in the applicable SOW for such Work (“Fees”), in accordance with the payment terms in this Section 2. In no event will any payment under this Agreement be contingent on receipt of any monies or other compensation owed to the Client. For the avoidance of doubt, fees or commissions payable to Social Link for media planning and buying services are in addition to, and not inclusive of, Social Link's fees for other services which may be listed in the SOW, such as design, branding, hosting, and content distribution and syndication. Each invoice hereunder and any SOW is due and payable on receipt using the payment method on file. All rights granted to Client herein (including, without limitation, ownership of any products of the Work pursuant to Section 3) are conditioned on Social Link's receipt of full payment. In addition, Social Link may suspend performance of services and withhold delivery of the Work or any materials until payment in full of all amounts due. Social Link shall not be liable for any damages, losses, or liabilities that may arise out of Social Link's suspension of performance and/or withholding of the Work or any materials as a result of Client's non-payment. Social Link shall be entitled to all of its costs of collection of amounts outstanding hereunder, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

2.2 Payment Terms. Upon acceptance of a SOW, Client shall pay any invoice presented to it by Social Link upon receipt using auto draft of a credit card, debit card, or ACH transfer provided at the time of acceptance of the applicable SOW.

Client will bear sole responsibility for all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the Work, unless otherwise agreed to in advance and in writing by Client. Client will be notified in advance for pre-approval of any additional expenses in excess of more than ten percent (10%) of those set forth on the SOW.

Client may dispute any payable amount by notice to Social Link orally or in writing within three (3) business calendar days of Client's receipt of the invoice and charges, which claim of dispute shall set forth a description of the disputed amounts. All disputed amounts that Client subsequently agrees to pay, or that are required to be paid pursuant to a proper court order or award, will be paid on the payment terms set forth in this Agreement. Failure by Client to dispute any invoiced amount within the periods set forth above will not be deemed a waiver of any claims that were unknown to Client at the time.

2.5 Cost of Collection. In the event Social Link incurs any costs incident to the collection of any payment from Client under this Agreement, Client agrees to pay all reasonable attorneys' fees, court and other costs, and the reasonable costs of any collection efforts which may be commenced as early as thirty (30) calendar days after any balance is past due.
