Master Services Agreement

REVPARTNERS LLC

Updated December 19, 2025

 

This Master Services Agreement and any schedules attached hereto (this “Agreement”), is dated as of the effective date (the “Effective Date”) set forth on the signature page hereof, and is made by and between RevPartners LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the “Company”) and the customer listed on the Order Form (hereafter, the “Customer”). Customer and Company may be referred to herein together as the “Parties”, and each may be referred to individually as a “Party”. 

 

This Agreement contains the terms and conditions upon which Customer has engaged Company to provide the Services (as defined herein). This Agreement is applicable to Customer regardless of the Services selected, as indicated on the Order Form and in any applicable Statement of Work (all as defined below), which may be updated by agreement of the Parties, from time to time, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy, and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Company and Customer agree as follows:

 

1 Services.

1.1. Nature of Services. Company provides managed services including, onboarding, data migration, integration, revenue operations enhancements, sales and marketing operations, inbound marketing, paid management, and search engine optimization, all with relation to HubSpot, and as reflected in an Order Form or Statement of Work (the “Services”).

 

1.2.Order Forms and Statements of Work. Company shall provide to Customer the Services set out in one or more order form (each, and “Order Form”) and/or one or more statements of work (each, a “Statement of Work”), agreed by and between Customer and Company. Each Order Form or  Statement of Work shall describe the Services with such reasonable detail as the Parties may determine to be necessary and appropriate, with such details to include (but not be limited to), as applicable: description of Services, expected deliverables, anticipated timeframes, and associated fees.

 

1.3. Third-Party Licenses. The Services may include, incorporate, utilize or work with other software, tools, applications, content, data or other materials, including related documentation, that are owned by persons other than Company and that are provided to  Customer  on  license  terms  that  are  in  addition  to  and/or  different  from  those contained in this Agreement, including but not limited to HubSpot’s license terms (“Third-Party Licenses”). Customer agrees to be bound by and shall comply with all Third-Party Licenses. Any breach by Customer or any of its authorized users of any Third-Party License shall be considered a breach of this Agreement as well. 

 

1.4. Amendments to Statement of Work.


(a) Either Party may request, in writing, changes to the Services, or to a specific Statement of Work (aChange Request”), as further described in Section 1.4(b). Material changes include, but are not limited to, requests for changes in scope, risks, specifications, costs, schedule, designs, deliverables, or other similar requirements. Company shall not be obligated to perform tasks described in any such Change Request unless and until the Parties agree, in writing, to the proposed change. The Parties agree that they shall evaluate any duly served Change Request in good faith, and, if agreed, implement all such changes, and, upon any such agreement and implementation, any fees which have been agreed to be adjusted shall, thereafter, be so adjusted, in accordance with such written change order.

 

(b) Any Change Request that a Party wishes to be considered shall be in writing, shall reference this Agreement, and any applicable Statement of Work (if applicable), and shall contain a reasonable and sufficient level of detail to allow the other Party to evaluate the same. Company may prescribe a written form for purposes of the same, and, if so, each Party agrees to use such form. For the avoidance of doubt, e-mail shall suffice for provision and acceptance of written notice with respect to Change Requests but shall specifically state in the same writing that the request is a “Change Request.”

 

(c) In addition to the foregoing, external project dependencies, which are not met and are not the responsibility of the Service Provider, may result in additional costs.

 

1.5. Privacy Policy. Customer acknowledges and agrees that use of the Services may require Customer to provide certain personal information about its authorized users. Customer may also share certain personal data about its contacts or customers in connection with the provision of the Services. All information Company collects through or in connection with the Services is subject to Company’s Privacy Policy (https://revpartners.io/privacy), as may be updated from time to time, which is incorporated herein by reference.

2. Company Obligations.

Promptly following the effective date of an Order Form or Statement of Work and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Company shall perform Services set forth in each Order Form or Statement of Work.

3. Customer Obligations.

 

3.1. Customer Resources and Cooperation. Customer will, in accordance with any Order Form or Statement of Work issued hereunder:

 

(a) provide Customer Materials and all such other resources as may be necessary to provide the Services;

 

(b) participate in meetings (scheduled with at least two (2) business days advance notice) to review and discuss the Services, Deliverables, and such other matters as may be relevant to this Agreement; and

(c) provide reasonable cooperation and assistance that Company may reasonably request, to enable Company to provide the Services and otherwise perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

3.2. Customer Delays

 

(a) Generally. This Agreement contemplates that each Statement of Work may provide estimated start dates, estimated completion dates, and, if applicable, milestone dates for providing Services (and Deliverables, as applicable). As used in this Agreement, a “Customer Delay” means any action or inaction by Customer or its officers, employees, or agents, that causes Company to delay providing Services or tendering Deliverables to Customer or to otherwise deviate from the delivery schedule or completion date set forth in a Statement of Work. In the event of any Customer Delay or failure by Customer to comply with Section 3.1 above, Company may, by written notice to Customer, suspend the Services until it receives the information or materials reasonably required for it to continue with the Services. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer Delays may result in additional costs and expenses for Company, and that Customer shall be responsible for the payment of all such additional costs and expenses that result from Customer Delays.

 

(b) Discovery Documentation and Delivery Delays. Without limiting subsection (a) above, Customer acknowledges that timely provision of discovery documentation (including, without limitation, property mappings, data line items, and related intake materials) is essential to Company’s ability to perform the Services. If Customer fails to provide required discovery documentation or otherwise prevents Company from delivering designated epics or milestones for a period exceeding ten (10) business days from Company’s written request, the project shall be deemed to have entered a “Delayed Discovery Period”. During any Delayed Discovery Period, Company may invoice Customer on a weekly basis at a rate $3,600 per week (the “Discovery Delay Fee”) until the requested discovery materials are received and work can resume. The Discovery Delay Fee is intended to compensate Company for resource allocation, scheduling impacts, and administrative overhead resulting from Customer’s delay. Company shall notify Customer in writing before initiating such weekly billing.

 

3.3. Compliance and Security. Customer acknowledges and agrees that it will comply with all applicable laws, regulations, rules, orders, and other requirements related to the Services and its obligations under this Agreement. Customer shall take all precautions to ensure data or software related to the Services is not used in breach of any laws or intentionally used to transmit or disseminate viruses or other harmful programs or features. 

 

3.4. Customer Materials.

 

(a) In the course of providing Services, Customer may provide to Company data (including data populated into HubSpot), documents, written works, design, layouts, technologies, software, systems, information, files, artwork, graphics, video, audio, reports or other proprietary information (the “Customer Materials”), that may be utilized by Company in the course of providing Services. As between the Parties, Customer is and will remain, the sole and exclusive owner of all rights, title, and interest in and to Customer Materials, including all Intellectual Property Rights therein, subject only to the license granted under Section 3.4(b). All other rights in and to Customer Materials are expressly reserved by Customer.

 

(b) Customer hereby grants to Company a fully paid-up and royalty-free, non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, perform, display, distribute, modify, and create derivative works and improvements of Customer Materials solely to develop the Deliverables and otherwise as necessary to perform the Services for the exclusive benefit of Customer. The term of such license will commence upon Customer’s first delivery of Customer Materials to Company, and shall expire automatically upon the earlier of (i) termination of this Agreement; or (ii) completion of the Order Form or Statement(s) of Work that require Company to utilize Customer Materials.

 

3.5. Non-Solicitation of Employees and Contractors. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of eighteen months (18) months thereafter, Customer agrees not to solicit, hire, recruit, engage, or attempt to hire, recruit, or engage, directly or by assisting others, any employees or contractors of Company, or induce the termination of employment or engagement of any employee or contractor of Company. This restriction shall apply to employees or contractors of Company who were employed or contracted at any time during the term of this Agreement up until the termination of the Agreement. In the event of a breach of this provision, Customer agrees to pay Company as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, an amount equal to two (2) times the total compensation paid to the employee or contractor by Company during the last twelve (12) months of the employee’s or contractor’s service with Company; provided, however, if such employee or contractor does not have a twelve-month history with Company the liquidated damages shall be calculated as follows: the average monthly compensation during the employee or contractor’s affiliation with Company times twenty-four (24). The Parties agree that these liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of the harm Company would suffer from such a breach and that actual damages would be difficult to ascertain. 

4 Fees and Expenses

 

4.1. Fees. Customer will compensate Company for the Services at the agreed rate(s), and on the terms and conditions of payment provided on the applicable Order form and/or Statement of Work (the “Fees”). 

 

4.2. Reimbursement of Expenses. Customer shall reimburse Company for all reasonable expenses incurred in performing Services hereunder (each, a “Reimbursement”) within fifteen (15) days of receipt by Customer of an invoice from Company or as otherwise agreed upon by Company. Company agrees to obtain approval from Customer, in advance, before incurring expenses on Customer’s behalf.

 

4.3. Taxes. Customer shall be responsible for all sales, use, VAT, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties and charges of any kind imposed by any national, federal, state, provincial, or local governmental entity on any amounts payable by Customer hereunder; provided, that, in no event shall Customer pay or be responsible for any taxes imposed on, or with respect to, Company’s income, revenues, gross receipts, personnel or real or personal property or other assets.

For the purpose this Agreement, “Kickoff Date” means the earlier date of the kickoff meeting between Company and Customer or thirty (30) days from the effective date of the Order Form or Statement of Work, as applicable.

 

4.5.Statement of Work Payments; Invoicing. Unless otherwise provided on a Statement of Work, Customer will be issued three equal invoices, together amounting to the total Fees and Reimbursements (inclusive of any implementation or setup Fees) reflected on the Statement of Work, on each the Kickoff Date, thirty (30) days from the Kickoff Date, and sixty (60) days from the Kickoff Date. Customer shall pay all invoices within fifteen (15) days of the invoice date.

 

4.6. Advertising Payments; Invoicing. Unless otherwise provided on a Statement of Work or Order Form, Customer will be issued invoices for Advertising fees by the fifth (5th) day of each month for the previous month’s advertising fees. The advertising fee will be calculated by multiplying the total ad spend by the applicable tier percentage as defined in Customer’s Order Form or Statement of Work. Customer shall pay all invoices within fifteen (15) days of the invoice date.

 

4.7. Payment Procedures. Customer will make all payments hereunder in US Dollars ($) via Credit Card or ACH Bank Transfer, or other such method that may be specified by Company from time to time. Customer will make payments to the address or account specified in the applicable Order Form or Statement of Work, or such other address or account as is specified by Company, in writing, from time to time.

 

4.8. Late Payments. All late payments shall bear interest at the lesser of the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate permissible under applicable law (not to exceed sixteen percent (16.0%) per annum under any circumstance), calculated daily and compounded monthly. Customer shall also reimburse Company for all reasonable costs incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law (which Company does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder), Company shall be entitled to suspend the provision of any Services if Customer fails to pay any undisputed amounts when due hereunder, and such failure continues for fifteen (15) days. Company will give five (5) days prior written notice to Customer prior to suspending the Services for late payment.

(b) IN ADDITION TO, AND IN NO WAY LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE COMPANY MAKES NO GUARANTEES OF SUCCESS RELATED TO THE GOALS OF THE CLIENT IN CONTRACTING FOR PROVISION OF THE SERVICES, IN ANY MANNER. FAILURE TO ACHIEVE STATED GOALS OF THE CUSTOMER, WHETHER RECTIED IN AN ORDER FORM OR STATEMENT OF WORK, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT CONSITUTE A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY THE COMPANY, IN ANY RESPECT, AND NO REFUND OF ANY FEES WHICH ARE PAID, OR DUE AND PAYABLE, SHALL BE MADE IN ANY SUCH EVENT. 

 

5.4. Limitations of Liability

 

(a) IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE TO THE CUSTOMER OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE OR PROFIT OR LOSS OF DATA OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

6. Intellectual Property

 

6.1. Company Intellectual Property Rights. All intellectual property rights, including copyrights, patents, patent disclosures and inventions (whether patentable or not), trademarks service marks, trade secrets, know-how and other confidential information, trade dress, trade names, logos, corporate names and domain names, together with all of the goodwill associated therewith, derivative works and all other rights (collectively, “Intellectual Property Rights”) that are owned by Company shall always remain the exclusive property of Company (or of its suppliers or licensors, if and when applicable). Nothing in this Agreement grants Customer a license to Company’s Intellectual Property Rights.

 

6.2. Customer Intellectual Property Rights. All Intellectual Property Rights in and to Customer Materials shall always remain the exclusive property of Customer (or its suppliers or licensors, if and when applicable). Nothing in this Agreement grants Company a license to Customer’s Intellectual Property Rights.

 

6.3. Deliverables. All Intellectual Property Rights in and to documents, final work products and other materials that are delivered to Customer under this Agreement, as identified in an Order Form or Statement of Work (collectively, the “Deliverables”) shall be owned by Customer; provided, however, Customer agrees that Company may produce similar deliverables for other customers using proprietary templates, workflow, and processes developed by Company, all of which shall remain intellectual property of Company. Intellectual Property Rights to all other items not identified as Deliverables in an Order Form or Statement of Work shall be owned by Company; provided, however, Company shall not incorporate any of Customer Materials into its intellectual property.

 

6.4. Derivative Works. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, to the extent that any Deliverables or the results of any Services by Company are additions, amendments, enhancements, modifications, or other changes to any intellectual property owned or otherwise provided by Company (the “Derivative Works”), all of the right, title, and interest to the Intellectual Property Rights to such Derivative Works shall remain solely and exclusively with Company. 

 

6.5. Residuals. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Customer understands, acknowledges, and agrees that Company shall have the right to retain, use and disclose, without accounting to Customer, any Residual Knowledge obtained by Company in the performance of Services hereunder. “Residual Knowledge” shall mean and include information, other than the Confidential Information of Customer, of the type that applicable law would permit an employee or other affiliate of Company to retain and use in subsequent employment or engagement with a third-party. This exception to the obligations of confidentiality and non-use is intended only to alleviate the possibility of inadvertent breach of this Agreement arising from routine, unaided memory retention by employees or other affiliates of Company and is not intended to permit Company to use or disclose information known to Company to be Deliverables or Confidential Information subject to this Agreement.

 

6.6. Feedback. If Customer provides Company with any feedback or suggestions about the Services or Company’s business operations (the “Feedback”), Company may use the Feedback without obligation to Customer, and Customer irrevocably assigns to Company all right, title, and interest in and to the Feedback. This Agreement is not a sale and does not give Customer any rights of ownership in, or related to, the Services or Company’s Intellectual Property Rights.

7. Confidentiality.

7.1. Confidential Information and Non-Disclosure. From time to time during the Term of this Agreement, either Party (as the “Disclosing Party”) may disclose or make available to the other Party (as the “Receiving Party”), non-public proprietary and confidential information of the Disclosing Party that is either marked as confidential or proprietary or that, given the nature of the information or the circumstances of the disclosure, reasonably ought to be considered to be confidential (“Confidential Information”); provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include any information that: (a) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of the Receiving Party’s breach of this Section 7; (b) is or becomes available to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third-party source, provided that such third-party is not and was not prohibited from disclosing such Confidential Information; (c) was in the Receiving Party’s possession prior to the Disclosing Party’s disclosure hereunder; or (d) was or is independently developed by the Receiving Party without using any Confidential Information. The Receiving Party shall: (x) protect and safeguard the confidentiality of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as the Receiving Party would protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than a commercially reasonable degree of care; (y) not use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, or permit it to be accessed or used, for any purpose other than to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement; and (z) not disclose any such Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to the Receiving Party’s Representatives who need to know the Confidential Information to assist the Receiving Party, or act on its behalf, to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement. 

 

7.2. Required Disclosure. If the Receiving Party is required by applicable law or legal process to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall, prior to making such disclosure, use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Disclosing Party of such requirements to afford the Disclosing Party the opportunity to seek, at the Disclosing Party’s sole cost and expense, a protective order or other remedy. 

 

7.3. Publicity. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, Customer grants Company the limited right to use the other Customer’s name and logo on customer lists and informational or promotional materials. Neither Party will issue any public communications concerning the specifics of this relationship without the prior written consent of the other Party.

8. Relationship.

8.1. Relationship of the Parties. Neither Party shall have, nor shall represent that it has, any power, right or authority to bind the other Party, or to assume or create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party or in the other Party’s name, except as herein expressly provided. Nothing stated in this Agreement shall be construed as constituting the Parties hereto as partners or as creating the relationships of employer / employee, franchisor / franchisee, or principal / agent between the Parties. Company is performing services for Customer as an independent contractor. Neither Party can bind the other to any agreement with any third-party.

 

8.2. No Exclusive Duty. Company shall not be required to participate in the provision of Services to Customer hereunder as its sole and exclusive function, and Customer understands and acknowledges that Company may have other business interests and may engage in other activities, in addition to those relating to Customer, including the provision of the same or similar services to other customers and clients of Company. Customer further understands and acknowledges that some such persons may otherwise be considered competitors of Customer, and such fact shall not alter the foregoing presumption and permission; provided that Company is otherwise abiding by its obligations hereunder (including its obligations of confidentiality).

 

8.3. Third-Party Service Providers. Company may fulfill its obligation to provide Services hereunder through the assignment and use of one or more subcontractors (each, a “Subcontractor”). To the extent that Company uses any Subcontractor to perform any portion of the Services hereunder, it shall remain fully responsible and liable for all actions of such Subcontractor and use of the same shall not relieve Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement. Company is under no obligation to notify Customer prior to its assignment or use of Subcontractors. In addition to the foregoing, in the case of any use of Subcontractors by Company, Company shall ensure that any such Subcontractor is under contractual obligations with respect to the handling of Customer’s Confidential Information that are at least as stringent as those obligations of Company hereunder.

 

8.4. Hosting Services. During the Term, Company may offer hosting services to Customer (the “Hosting Services”). Company may fulfill its obligation to provide Hosting Services through the assignment and use of one or more Subcontractors.

9.6. Effect of Termination. The rights and obligations of the Parties set forth in this Section 9, and any right or obligation of the Parties in this Agreement which, by its nature, should survive termination or expiration of this Agreement, will survive any such termination or expiration of this Agreement.

11.5 Waiver. No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

11.6. Assignment. Customer shall not assign, transfer, delegate, or subcontract any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Company. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 11.6 shall be null and void. No assignment or delegation shall relieve Customer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

The arbitration award will be valid and binding upon the Parties, and judgment thereon may be entered into and enforced as a final judgment in any court with competent jurisdiction.
