STANDARD ENGAGEMENT TERMS
The following terms govern the engagement between the addressee of the accompanying engagement letter (You) and CFO Oncall, Inc. (CFO).
CONFIDENTIALITY
CFO treats all Client relationships as confidential and will not disclose your financial or tax information to anyone outside of CFO without your written permission except as required by law or regulation. Your permission may be granted by identifying the parties (e.g. financial advisor, attorney, banker, etc.) to whom disclosure is permitted below, or by other written correspondence. CFO further agrees to bind its employees and subcontractors to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
___________________________ ________________________________ _______________________________
CLIENT PROVIDED INFORMATION
You represent that all information provided to CFO is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge. Further, if these services involve tax return preparation, you represent that unless CFO is otherwise advised in writing or acts as your business manager, you possess the required supporting documentation for such tax deductions as travel, entertainment, business gifts, charitable contributions, automobile usage, etc. CFO is not responsible for any additional tax, penalties or interest that might result from the lack of documentation for such deductions upon audit.
PROFESSIONAL JUDGMENT
CFO will use its professional judgment in applying tax, accounting, or other rules applicable to this engagement. Wherever there are conflicting, reasonable interpretations of the rules, we will advise you of the possible positions you might take and follow the position you request as long as it is consistent with applicable professional, statutory or regulatory standards. Should the positions taken result in additional taxes, penalties, fines, interest or any other damages, we assume no responsibility for such costs.
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS IN SCOPE OF ENGAGEMENT
Should the scope of the engagement change, CFO will prepare a Change Order letter outlining the necessary changes and the modification of fees. CFO will not proceed with the modified scope without your prior approval. Fee increases resulting from Change Orders will be billed immediately and are due upon receipt.
BINDING ARBITRATION
In the event that a fee dispute arises at any time between CFO and you that cannot be resolved through discussion or mediation, you agree to submit to binding arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. Neither you nor CFO may claim or receive any amount as punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages. The arbitrator shall award the winning party in the dispute its reasonable costs, expenses, and attorney fees. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on both CFO and you. However, if a claim has been made or is anticipated to be made by a third party relating to these services and that third party does not agree to arbitration, CFO can elect not to arbitrate so that all claims may be decided in one forum.
TERMINATION OF ENGAGEMENT
Unless otherwise stated in the accompanying engagement letter, this engagement may be terminated upon thirty (30) days written notice by either party; provided, however, that these Standard Engagement Terms shall survive the termination of this engagement.
WORKPAPER OWNERSHIP
All documents and work papers, including, but not limited to, data in electronic form, which emanate from the services performed by CFO remain the sole property of CFO. CFO retains its work papers at its discretion and does not retain superseded materials.
