2. The products licensed under this agreement are for Microsoft cloud software subscriptions.
3. The minimum term of this Agreement shall be 30 days following the first billing date.
4. Following the initial minimum term, unless terminated by either party in accordance with clause 14 below, this Agreement shall become a 30-day rolling agreement.
5. Microsoft cloud licences are supplied and provisioned by a Microsoft authorised licensing distributor (details of which can be provided on request).
6. The Customer authorises Strategy 365 to:
- be given Indirect Reseller access to its Microsoft 365 tenant (which includes Granular Delegated Administration (GDAP)) and will provide this access prior to or immediately after

8. The Customer acknowledges that complex software is never wholly free from defects, errors and bugs and/or security vulnerabilities. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Strategy 365 gives no warranty or representation that the Software will be wholly free from any such things or will be entirely secure.

- any outstanding customer invoices become overdue.
- a Direct Debit mandate is cancelled without alternative payment being arranged by the Customer and agreed by Strategy 365 Limited.

- the other party ceases, or threatens to cease, to carry on business.

Within 30 days following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Customer must pay to the Strategy 365 any charges in respect of licences in effect before the termination of this Agreement and any other services provided and invoiced to the Customer before the termination of this Agreement.
