However, unless expressly stated to the contrary, the Master Agreement and/or Agreement are not to supersede, or otherwise change, the Parties respective rights and duties under any previously executed written agreement between them or their Affiliates relating to any transactions outside of the scope of the subject matter set forth in the Agreement. |

(b) | Each Party acknowledges that it has entered into the Master Agreement and any Agreement in reliance only upon the representations, warranties and promises specifically contained or incorporated in the UMA, the relevant Schedule(s) and Supply Order and, except as expressly set out or referred to herein or in the relevant Agreement, each Party shall have no liability in respect of any other prior representation, warranty or promise unless it was made fraudulently. |
3.5. | Relationship of the Parties |
(a) | The Parties acknowledge that they are independent contractors. Nothing in the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement shall render any member of the Staff an employee, agent or partner of UBS or any UBS Affiliate and no member of Staff shall hold themselves out as such. Both Parties declare that they have no intention, for any purpose whatsoever, to form a corporate, corporate-like or other partnership. UBS shall not be liable for any of the acts or omissions of Supplier and/or the Staff. |
(b) | Supplier shall be solely responsible for the payment of compensation of its Staff, and for any worker’s compensation, disability benefits, unemployment insurance, withholding or employment-related taxes and visa costs for Staff. Supplier shall inform its Staff that they are not entitled to the provision of any UBS employee benefits. |
(c) | In the event that the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement authorizes Staff to interact with third parties, whether orally or in writing, on behalf of UBS, Supplier shall ensure that the Staff shall present themselves as acting on behalf of UBS (or such other manner of presentation as UBS may specify in the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement, including in any applicable UBS Policy, or as notified by UBS from time to time) and not as employees of UBS. |
3.6. | Third Party Rights |
(a) | Any UBS Affiliate that receives, directly or indirectly, Products or Services under an Agreement, whether or not named in that Agreement, may enforce the terms of that Agreement. |
(b) | Supplier or any Supplier Affiliate's sole right of action under a Supply Order against UBS (including for the avoidance of doubt its Affiliates) shall be against the UBS entity that entered into such Supply Order. |
(c) | Except for UBS Affiliates, no third party may enforce the terms of the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement. The Master Agreement and/or any Agreement may nevertheless be varied by the relevant Parties without the consent of any third party. |
4. | Products and Services The following provisions apply where the Parties wish to provide for the Master Agreement and any Agreement to cover the supply of Products or the provision of Services to UBS and UBS Affiliates. The Products and Services may be received and used by UBS, any UBS Affiliate and any other person or entity authorized by UBS or UBS Affiliates to receive and/or use the Products and Services, in UBS’s and each UBS Affiliate’s sole discretion. |
4.1. | Ordering |
(a) | With respect to each country or group of countries, if applicable, the Parties may at any time request a Supply Order to be executed (and therefore an Agreement to be entered into) by |
(i) | the appropriate Supplier Affiliate(s), (provided that such Affiliate is a Wholly Owned Affiliate) to provide and/or |
(ii) | the appropriate UBS Affiliate(s) to receive |
Products and/or Services pursuant to the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement. Any such Supply Order may set forth any supplementary provisions either (A) required by local law (“Local Law Matters“) or (B) any Special Terms appropriate due to the circumstances.
9/42
Exhibit 10.1
(b) | To be valid, any Supply Order must be assigned a Supply Order Number (and signed by two UBS Authorized Personnel, where at least one is signed (or authorized) by SDM, and an authorized representative of Supplier, as set forth in clause 2.4). Each Supply Order (including any Special Terms) so executed will, together with the UMA and the relevant Schedule(s), form an Agreement which shall be effective no later than upon the commencement of the delivery of Products or the provision of Services. UBS shall not be liable to pay any Charges for Services or Products provided by Supplier under an improperly authorized Supply Order. In the event that Supplier has any doubt as to whether a Supply Order has been authorized properly, Supplier shall discuss the matter with UBS’s manager prior to commencing the Services or providing the required Products in respect of the relevant Supply Order. If Supplier proceeds with performing the Services or providing the Products and has not clarified the validity of a Supply Order, then the performance thereunder shall be at Supplier’s sole expense until such Supply Order has been validated. UBS may issue system-generated, electronic purchase orders for the supply of Services or Products. The details with regard thereto shall be specified in the applicable Schedule(s) and/or Supply Orders. |
(c) | UBS may propose changes within the general scope of the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement at any time or as necessary to reflect the specific legal requirements and business practices from time to time applicable in the relevant jurisdiction in order to produce the legal and business result intended by the Parties. If any such change causes an increase in the cost of performance to Supplier or time required for such performance, the Parties shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith for an equitable adjustment to the Charges and timeframes, in line with any specific procedure or process which may be set out in the relevant Schedule and/or Supply Order. Upon receiving a notice or request from UBS, Supplier shall (at no additional cost to UBS) promptly submit to UBS a change in scope proposal which shall outline in detail the required changes to the scope of the Services and associated impact on the Charges. Any such changes must be agreed by both Parties in writing in accordance with clause 12.7. |
4.2. | Location |
(a) | If Services are performed at UBS Sites, Supplier confirms that it will inspect them without delay and: |
(i) | notify UBS if such UBS Sites are not adequate to allow Supplier to perform the Services in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agreement; or |
(ii) | promptly raise and discuss with UBS any additional accommodation and/or facilities that it reasonably requires to perform the Services in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agreement. |
(b) | To the extent required for the provision of Services, UBS shall allow the Staff to enter the UBS Sites during each day that such sites are open during reasonable business hours for the purposes of providing the Services and at other times on reasonable notice and with UBS’s prior written consent. UBS may revoke or suspend such permission in part or in whole including in respect of certain UBS Sites only and/or in respect of certain individuals or classes of individuals only. Supplier agrees that its use of any UBS Site is permitted solely on the basis that it has no right in the form of a lease, continuing license or tenancy and that it does not have any right of sole use or possession of any UBS Site or any part thereof. Other than for UBS Sites, Supplier shall secure, as applicable, all Location leases, licenses, authorizations and permits and will work with the building management company, at Supplier's sole cost and expense, to secure and maintain the same for the Term of the relevant Agreement. |
(c) | Supplier shall, whenever the Staff are present on the UBS Sites, require such Staff to adhere to the reasonable instructions of representatives of UBS and to observe any conditions, policies or procedures applicable to them from time to time, as communicated to Supplier or any Supplier Affiliate or the affected Staff. For the avoidance of doubt, without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, any conditions, policies or procedures communicated to Supplier shall be deemed communicated to all Supplier Affiliates and Subcontractors and all Staff under any Agreement. Upon reasonable request of UBS, Supplier shall arrange for all or any specific individual or class of Staff, whether on or off UBS Sites, to sign any related acknowledgements as are set forth by UBS indicating that such Staff will comply with such conditions, policies or procedures. |
(d) | Insofar as the Services are performed at Non-UBS Sites: |
| (i) | where a Non-UBS Site proposed by Supplier is, in the reasonable opinion of UBS, unsuitable for the provision of the Services, UBS shall promptly notify Supplier; or |
10/42
Exhibit 10.1
| (ii) | where a Non-UBS Site proposed by UBS is, in the reasonable opinion of Supplier, unsuitable for the provision of the Services, Supplier shall promptly notify UBS, |
and, in either case, Supplier shall, if requested by UBS, find an alternative Non-UBS Site acceptable to UBS.
(e) | Supplier shall |
(i) | obtain UBS's prior written approval of any relocation of a Supplier Location set forth in the relevant Supply Order (“Supplier Location“); |
(ii) | bear all of its costs of relocation of any Supplier Location; and. |
(iii) | reimburse UBS for the costs it incurs in connection with any such Supplier Location relocation, including any security audit thereof. |
4.3. | Notification |
Supplier shall promptly notify:
(i) | UBS on becoming aware that Supplier, a Supplier Affiliate or a member of Staff or its Subcontractor is in breach of any obligations under the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement, including any failure to comply with any Applicable Requirements or UBS Policies; and |
(ii) | UBS on becoming aware of any management issues, security problems, system failures and other developments which have or may have a material impact on Supplier’s ability to provide the Services or supply the Products and comply with its obligations in the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement; |
(iii) | any UBS Affiliate of the existence of the Master Agreement (with a copy to UBS) if Supplier is, during the term of the Master Agreement, discussing the provision to the respective UBS Affiliate of products and/or services similar to those provided under the Master Agreement. |
4.4. | Subcontracting |
(a) | Supplier may use Subcontractors (including Supplier Affiliates), provided that UBS’s written consent is first obtained, whether or not the Subcontractor is already in place at the Effective Date. No subcontracting shall in any way relieve Supplier from its obligations to provide the Services and Supplier shall at all times remain liable for any Subcontractor’s performance of Services under the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement in accordance with its terms as if such Subcontractor were Supplier. |
(b) | UBS is not responsible for the selection, instructions to and control of the Subcontractors by Supplier. |
(c) | Any permitted subcontract shall include: |
(i) | a representation that all Subcontractor personnel are employees of such Subcontractor for tax and employment law purposes; |
(ii) | the right for Supplier to terminate such subcontract with respect to the Services upon request by UBS if any deficiency in such Subcontractor’s performance is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of UBS within 30 days of notice thereof; |
(iii) | a provision requiring such Subcontractor to protect Confidential Information in accordance with the requirements of the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement, for the benefit of UBS and its Affiliates; |
(iv) | a representation that the Subcontractor has all necessary Intellectual Property Rights to supply the Services to UBS in accordance with the requirements of the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement; |
(v) | assignment of all rights to UBS (in accordance with clause 7.2) in any Work Product, deliverables, software, documentation, or other materials provided by such Subcontractor, in accordance with the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement; |

11/42
Exhibit 10.1
(vii) | an obligation to maintain insurance to the levels required of Supplier as set out in clause 12.5; and |
(viii) | any other terms reasonably specified by UBS. |
(d) | UBS and its Affiliates shall be specified as a third party beneficiary of any such subcontract and such subcontract shall contain the right for UBS (at its option), to directly enforce any obligations contained in such subcontract that deal with the protection of Confidential Information or the assignment of Intellectual Property Rights. Supplier shall take all actions to ensure that where its Subcontractors are responsible for any obligations dealing with the protection of UBS’s Confidential Information or the assignment of Intellectual Property rights, such Subcontractors shall execute directly with UBS, such confidentiality and/or rights assignment agreements as UBS deems appropriate to establish direct privity of contract with such Subcontractors, permitting UBS and it Affiliates to assert in its/their own name and for its/their own benefit, any claims alleging an improper disclosure of UBS Confidential Information or violation of UBS Intellectual Property rights by such Subcontractor. Until Supplier has complied with this provision, UBS may reject the affected Subcontractors even in case of prior approval by UBS. |
(e) | Supplier shall be solely responsible for ensuring its Subcontractors’ full compliance with all relevant terms and conditions of the Master Agreement and any relevant Agreement applicable to Staff. Supplier shall be solely responsible for all payments to its Subcontractors including any applicable taxes. A Subcontractor may not claim performance of any obligation, any taxes, compensations, expenses and similar directly from UBS; vice versa UBS may not claim performance directly from the Subcontractor (except as set out in clause 4.4(d)), however UBS may be entitled to place Service requests and give instructions to a local Subcontractor as agreed in the relevant Supply Order and for the avoidance of doubt Supplier shall remain responsible for the performance of the relevant Agreement. |
4.5. | Supplier Staff Confidentiality / Data Protection |
(a) | Supplier must ensure that the Staff are made aware of the confidential nature of Confidential Information and that they are reminded of their duties of confidentiality pursuant to their contracts of employment or their contracts for services, as the case may be. Supplier shall ensure that, if requested by UBS, any Staff accessing Confidential Information shall sign the Declaration of staff member regarding data protection / privacy and client confidentiality / bank secrecy obligations as attached as Exhibit 2.

In any case, UBS shall hereby be indemnified and held harmless by Supplier for its own related expenses and lawyer's fees. |

(i) | arrange that Supplier provide UBS with the right in dispute; or |
(ii) | have developed, at the expense of Supplier, a modified and technically equivalent Product, Service or Work Product which does not infringe rights of third parties |
Assuming Supplier accomplishes one of the foregoing (1) or (ii) successfully with no more than two weeks from the first notice of the infringement claim, however delivered or realized, then the limits on liability specified in Section 9.2 will apply to any claims which UBS may subsequently assert for damages or losses incurred as a result of infringing use prior to the point at which it had been successfully addressed,
Any cost caused to UBS as a result of a migration shall be borne by Supplier. The right to claim further loss or damage shall be reversed. Such claims by UBS for monetary damages and/or reimbursement of related costs shall be subject to the limitation on liability specified above only in those instances where the actions in (i) or (ii) have been successfully taken to resolve the infringing activity,.
Except as otherwise specified in this Section (c), the foregoing shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedies available to UBS in law or equity or under the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement.
(d) | The indemnity in this clause 8 shall not apply to any infringement to the extent that it is exclusively and necessarily due to Supplier having followed a design or instruction furnished or given by UBS in circumstances where Supplier could not reasonably have been expected to avoid such infringement, or UBS combines the Products with such products which Supplier has clearly stated in the relevant Supply Order would cause such an infringement. |

In the event of any third party claim being made against Supplier by virtue of its use of any UBS Pre-Existing Intellectual Property, UBS Software or UBS Systems in accordance with the provisions of the Master Agreement and/or any Agreement (and which does not itself arise as a result of any Services provided by Supplier), UBS shall have the option to (A) compensate Supplier for all reasonable losses and expenses it incurs in connection with such claim, or (B) defend such claims at its own expense. |
