or the use of telephone number(s) notified to it by Moblix Media
from time to time. The Customer shall not make any inference that
it has received approval in any form from Moblix Media as to the
content of the Customer's service.
19.8 The Customer shall give Moblix Media as much written notice
as possible (being not less than 30 days) prior to undertaking any
marketing or other activities or events which might reasonably be
expected to materially increase the volume of Calls processed using
the Service.
19.9 The Customer shall pay all charges relating to any porting
of numbers between different Carriers.
19.10 The Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless Moblix Media
from and against any and all losses, demands, claims, damages, costs,
expenses and liabilities (including any penalties imposed by ICSTIS,
OFCOM or a regulatory body) incurred by Moblix Media and arising
out of services provided by the Customer, including in connection
with the quality or content of such services or of marketing or
promotional material or from any fraudulent or alleged fraudulent
use (including Artificial Inflation of Traffic) of telephone numbers.
19.11 Without prejudice to any other right or remedy, Moblix Media
may recover an amount indemnified by the Customer under conditions
5 or 19.10 by deducting such amount from future Outpayments.
19.12 Where Moblix Media, in its absolute discretion, considers
that the Customer is or is likely to breach any provision of this
Clause 19, Moblix Media may immediately terminate this Contract
or suspend provision of the Services on notice to the Customer.
19.13 Moblix Media reserve the right to make a charge when failed
Calls represent more than 50% of total Calls in any given month.
This charge will be calculated for each short code or keyword individually
and will be calculated as follows:
19.13.1 Where between 50% and 75% of all Calls on a short code fail,
a charge of 1p per Call over and above the Failed Allowance applies
19.13.2 Where greater than 75% of all Calls on a short code fail,
a charge of 2p per Call over and above the Failed Allowance applies
19.13.3 The Failed Allowance is defined as twice the number of successful
Calls on the short code or keyword
20 OUTPAYMENTS
20.1 This condition 20 shall apply in respect of those Services
which support Premium Rate Services provided by the Customer and
for which Outpayments are agreed between Moblix Media and the Customer
in the Order Form.
20.2 Moblix Media shall notify the Customer on a monthly basis of
the number of Calls processed by Moblix Media during the relevant
month and the telephone number(s) of the Premium Rate Service(s)
to which such Calls relate. Such notification will, subject always
to the timely receipt of all relevant information from the Carrier,
be provided 21 to 30 days after the end of the month in which the
Calls were made. In the event that such information from the Carrier
is delayed beyond this 30 day period then Moblix Media will provide
the information to the Customer within 7 days of the eventual receipt,
by Moblix Media, of such information.
20.3 The Customer shall issue invoices to Moblix Media for Outpayments
on a monthly basis. The Customer shall prepare invoices based upon
the Call information notified by Moblix Media pursuant to condition
20.2. If there is any discrepancy between the Call information notified
by Moblix Media and any similar information maintained by the Customer,
the information notified by Moblix Media shall be used.
20.4 Moblix Media shall pay any invoice for Outpayments, raised
by the Customer pursuant to condition 20.3, within 14 days of receipt
of the Customer’s invoice, subject always to the timely receipt
of the inpayment to Moblix Media from the Carrier in respect of
such Calls. In the event that such inpayment is delayed beyond this
14 day period then Moblix Media will pay the Customer’s invoice
within 7 working days following the eventual receipt of such inpayment.
20.5 The calculation of Outpayments is based upon the rate of inpayments
received by Moblix Media from Carriers. If the cost of any inpayment(s)
increases or decreases at any time, or if there is any other modification
of the method of calculation of inpayments by a Carrier, Moblix
Media reserves the right to increase or decrease Outpayments or
modify the method of calculation proportionately. Moblix Media will
use reasonable endeavours to notify the Customer of any such increase
or decrease in Outpayments or in the method of calculation.
20.6 Moblix Media reserves the right to withhold Outpayments if
any service provided by the Customer is suspected or alleged to
be contrary to any code of practice, fraudulent (including Artificial
Inflation of Traffic), illegal or contrary to any legal or regulatory
requirement, subject to the outcome of a subsequent investigation
which may be commenced by Moblix Media, a Carrier, ICSTIS, OFCOM
or any other regulatory body.
20.7 If a Carrier withholds any inpayment or requires repayment
from Moblix Media of any amount in relation to Calls, Moblix Media
may give notice to the Customer and either:
20.7.1 if no Outpayment(s) have yet been made to the Customer in
relation to such Calls, withhold all or part of such Outpayment(s);
or
20.7.2 if Outpayment(s) have already been made to the Customer in
relation to such Calls, either:
20.7.3 (a) withhold an equivalent amount from any future Outpayment(s)
to the Customer; or
20.7.4 (b) require immediate repayment by the Customer of any Outpayment(s)
paid to such Customer by Moblix Media in respect of such Calls,
20.7.5 provided that, in each case, any amounts withheld by Moblix
Media or repaid by the Customer are promptly released or returned
to the Customer when and to the extent that a Carrier releases or
returns a relevant payment to Moblix Media.
20.8 Moblix Media may, if directed or requested by ICSTIS, OFCOM
or any other regulatory body: (a) withhold all or part of any Outpayment
otherwise due to the Customer or (b) pay or transfer all or part
of any Outpayment otherwise due to the Customer to ICSTIS, OFCOM,
any other regulatory body or third party.
20.9 Outpayments for a month shall be payable by Moblix Media only
where total Outpayments in the month equal or exceed £50.00
(excluded VAT). For the avoidance of doubt, where total Outpayments
at the end of a billing month are less than £50.00 (excluding
VAT) all Outpayments for that month shall be forfeited by the Customer
and shall not be carried forward into any subsequent month.
20.10 Outpayments will cease to be payable with immediate effect
upon termination of this Contract by Moblix Media for any reason.
Any accrued Outpayments will be paid to the Customer, less any costs
or losses incurred by Moblix Media as a result of termination.

shall not be validly given unless so addressed.
24.2 No forbearance or delay by either party in enforcing its rights
will prejudice or restrict the rights of that party, and no waiver

or unenforceable for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction,
such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the provisions
of this Contract shall continue in full force and effect as if this

rights as against Moblix Media than the rights which Moblix Media
has against such Carrier in respect of a Service.
