Reseller or a third-party independent representative performing such audit or inspection shall execute a nondisclosure agreement with SFDC in a form acceptable to SFDC and Reseller and containing confidentiality provisions substantially similar to those set forth in the Agreement with respect to the confidential treatment and restricted use of any proprietary or confidential SFDC information. Any access at SFDC’s facilities shall be subject to SFDC’s reasonable access requirements and security policies, and shall be of reasonable duration and shall not unreasonably interfere with SFDC’s day-to-day operations. Such audit or inspection shall be conducted up to one time per year; Reseller must give SFDC at least 4 weeks prior notice of an audit or site inspection, provided that if such audit or inspection is required by applicable law and Reseller is unable to give such advance notice, such audit may be conducted with one week prior notice. Veeva shall pay for all expenses for an audit or inspection described herein, and if an audit requires the equivalent of more than one business day of time expended by an SFDC employee, Reseller agrees to reimburse SFDC for any additional time expended at SFDC’s then current professional services rates. Reseller may share a summary of the results of its audit or inspection with a Reseller Customer, provided that prior to sharing such summary, the Reseller Customer has entered into a non-disclosure agreement containing confidentiality provisions substantially similar to those set forth in the Agreement to protect SFDC’s proprietary information.
