(“Hypertec”)


 


-AND-


 


GLOBAL
BIT VENTURES INC., a company incorporated under the laws of Nevada, having its registered office at 2 Burlington Woods Dr.,
Ste.100 Burlington, MA 01803 (“Customer”).


 


The
parties agree as follows:


 


	1.	SERVICES
	 	 
	1.1	Provision
    of Services: The Customer requests and Hypertec shall provide to the Customer the services and equipment described
    in Schedule A attached hereto as well as each schedule (each a “Service Schedule”) attached to this Agreement
    from time to time (the “Services”) on the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement and the applicable Service
    Schedules.
	 	 
	1.2	Standalone
    Service Schedules: The pricing, terms and conditions set out or referenced in each Service Schedule of this Agreement
    are not dependent upon the Customer taking any or all of the other services or equipment put forward by Hypertec or its Affiliates.
    The Customer may terminate each Service Schedule in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4, independently of
    any other service or equipment the Customer receives from Hypertec or its Affiliates.
	 	 
	2.	CHARGES
	 	 
	2.1	Charges
    and Taxes: The Customer shall pay the charges as listed in any Service Schedule as amended by section 3.4 in the case
    of a renewal (collectively the “Charges”). The Customer shall also pay applicable commodity taxes, including all
    sales, retail, use, goods and services, value-added, excise and similar taxes levied or assessed by any Government authority,
    as well as surcharges for foreign taxes and withholding, if any (collectively, “Taxes”). The Services shall be
    invoiced on the first of each month for the Services to be rendered during that month with payment terms of net 30 days with
    prior credit approval unless stipulated otherwise in any Service Schedule. The first monthly payment is due at the signing
    of this Agreement. If any legislation authorizes the Customer to purchase Services pursuant to this Agreement without the
    payment of commodity taxes, Customer agrees to supply Hypertec with evidence of such authorization. Any incident of late payment
    shall entail suspension of the Services, should the Customer fail to remedy the late payment within a delay of five (5) business
    days following the delivery of a written notice to the Customer requesting payment of the amount that is due and owing.
	 	 
	2.2	Late
    Payment Charges: Invoiced Charges and Taxes are subject to a late payment charge (“Late Payment Charge”)
    at the rate specified in the invoice, which rate may vary from time to time, calculated from the invoice date, if not paid
    within 30 days of the invoice date. Customer will be responsible for the payment of all costs reasonably incurred by Hypertec
    in collecting or attempting to collect any unpaid Charges or Taxes or Late Payment Charges. Except as provided elsewhere in
    this Agreement, all payments made by Customer will be non-refundable.
	 	 
	2.3	No
    Withholding, Deduction or Set-Off: Customer shall not withhold or deduct any amounts from, or set-off amounts owed
    by Hypertec to Customer against, any amounts invoiced by Hypertec for Charges, Taxes or Late Payment Charges.
	 	 
	2.4	Credits:
    The Customer shall notify Hypertec within 90 days of the date of the applicable invoice, of any charges that should
    not have been billed or that were over-billed. If Hypertec confirms that those charges should not have been billed or were
    over-billed, Hypertec will credit the Customer for those charges.
	 	 
	3.	TERM
	 	 
	3.1	Term
    of the main body of this Agreement: The term of the main body of this Agreement (the “Agreement Term”)
    will begin on the later of the date it is signed by the Customer and the date it is signed by Hypertec. It will expire or
    terminate on the date that the Service Term (as defined in Section 3.4) of the last remaining Service Schedule expires
    or terminates.
	 	 
	3.2	Term
    of Each Service Schedule: Each Service will be provided for the period set out in the relevant Service Schedule (the
    “Initial Service Term”);
	 	 
	3.3	Early
    Provision of Services: If Hypertec begins work to provide any Service, or if Hypertec delivers any Service, before
    the start of the Agreement Term or the relevant Initial Service Term, all work and services provided by Hypertec before either
    of those dates will be considered to have been provided under all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement including
    the relevant Service Schedule.

	3.4	Renewal
    Term(s): Unless the Customer or Hypertec gives a notice of non-renewal to the other party as described in Section
    3.5, each Service Schedule will automatically be renewed at the end of the Initial Service Term on the same terms and
    conditions for the consecutive renewal period(s) set out in that Service Schedule. If there is no renewal period set out in
    a Service Schedule, then that Service Schedule will expire and the Services provided thereunder will be terminated at the
    end of the Initial Service Term. Each renewal period described above is defined as a “Service Renewal Term”. The
    Initial Service Term and any Service Renewal Term(s) are collectively referred to as the “Service Term”. Hypertec
    may change the Charges for a Service Renewal Term by providing the Customer with at least ninety (90) days advance written
    notice of the change before the end of the then current Initial Service Term or Service Renewal Term, as the case may be.
	 	 
	3.5	Notice
    of Non-Renewal: Either party may send to the other party a written notice, at least thirty (30) days in advance of
    the expiration of the relevant Service Term, as the case may be, that it does not intend to renew a Service Schedule. As a
    result, that Service Schedule will expire and the Services provided thereunder will be terminated at the end of the then current
    Service Term.
	 	 
	4.	TERMINATION
	 	 
	4.1	Early
    Termination by Customer: Customer may terminate a Service it has requested under a Service Schedule (“Terminated
    Service”) at any time before the end of the relevant Service Term by giving notice of termination to Hypertec at least
    30 days before the proposed early termination date. Customer may not terminate a Service except as provided herein. If Customer
    terminates a Service under this Section, the Customer shall pay to Hypertec the Charges defined in paragraph 6 of the Service
    Schedule.
	 	 
	4.2	Termination
    for Cause: Either party may terminate this Agreement or any Service Schedule, or Hypertec may suspend the Services
    in whole or in part, by giving notice in writing to the other party, upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the
    other party materially defaults with respect to a material obligation under this Agreement or the applicable Service Schedule
    and does not remedy that default within five (5) days after receiving written notice of the default; or (ii) the other party
    enters into a compulsory or voluntary liquidation, or convenes a meeting of its creditors or has a receiver appointed over
    all or any part of its assets or takes or suffers any similar action in consequence of a debt, or ceases for any reason to
    carry on business. Hypertec has certain additional rights of termination as provided under this Agreement. Customer’s
    failure to pay any invoiced Charges, Taxes or Late Payment Charges when due is a material default with respect to a material
    obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Hypertec materially defaults with respect to a material obligation in the provision
    of a Service, and Hypertec has not remedied that default within 30 days after receiving written notice of such default, Customer
    shall only be entitled to terminate the Service Schedule for that Service.
	 	 
	4.3	Charges
    Payable: On the termination of this Agreement or a Service Schedule for any reason, all payments required to be made
    to Hypertec by the Customer under the Agreement or that Service Schedule, as applicable, shall be due and payable immediately,
    and Hypertec may apply any prepaid amounts by Customer towards any other amount payable by Customer. Termination of a Service
    Schedule or this Agreement shall not relieve the Customer from any liability, including amounts owing, which accrued before
    the termination became effective. Customer will not be required to pay Termination Charges if Customer terminates this Agreement
    or a Service Schedule in accordance with Section 4.2.
	 	 
	4.4	Additional
    Termination Rights: Hypertec may terminate this Agreement immediately without notice in the event of a change of Control
    of the Customer or other assignment of this Agreement by the Customer without the prior written consent of Hypertec as provided
    in Section 12.3. “Control” means control, as defined in Section 2(3) of the Canada Business Corporations Act,
    and includes control “directly or indirectly in any manner whatever”, as defined in Section 256(5.1) of the Income
    Tax Act (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Hypertec shall not terminate this Agreement in the event of a change of control
    of the Customer or other assignment to Marathon Patent Group Inc.
	 	 
	4.5	Collaboration:
    In the event of the termination of the present Agreement for any reason, the parties hereby agree to collaborate with
    each other and with their respective suppliers in order to facilitate the migration of material resources and/or to carry
    out any other adjustment required to transfer the Services to another supplier or to the Customer’s premises. Such collaboration
    may be subject to reasonable charges which shall be notified to the other party in advance.
	 	 
	4.6	Default:
    In the event that Customer fails to perform or fulfill any obligations under this Agreement or fails to remedy in the
    event of default as provided in section 4.2 herein, Hypertec may at Hypertec’s option (a) cure such default and the
    cost of such action may be added to Customer’s financial obligations under this Agreement; or (b) as permitted by law,
    take possession of Customer’s Equipment being hosted by Hypertec at the time of default. Hypertec may, at its option,
    hold Customer liable for any difference between any amount that would have been payable under this Agreement during the balance
    of the unexpired term of the Agreement.
	 	 
	5.	SERVICE
    OBLIGATIONS
	 	 
	5.1	Service
    Commitments: Hypertec undertakes to put into place all that is necessary to ensure the continuity and quality of its
    Services. Hypertec shall provide each Service in accordance with this Agreement, including the relevant Service Schedule,
    and any service level agreements that may be specified in that Service Schedule and shall employ the highest degree of care
    in accordance with industry standards, subject to the Force Majeure provisions contained in Section 10.

	5.2	Rights
    and Remedies: All of Customer’s rights and remedies relating to Hypertec’s failure to meet a service level
    agreement, including credits, refunds or rights of termination, are set out in the relevant Service Schedule. These rights
    and remedies are subject to the limitations of liability set out in Section 7 and are the only remedies for Hypertec’s
    failure to meet a service level agreement or for a service interruption.
	 	 
	5.3	Disclaimer:
    Customer acknowledges that Hypertec does not warrant (i) uninterrupted or error-free Services, or (ii) the content,
    availability, accuracy or any other aspect of any information including all data, files and all other information or content
    in any form, accessible or made available to or by the Customer or End Users (as defined in Section 6.1 below) through the
    use of the Services. During a Service Term, Hypertec may migrate a Service to an alternative service or technology as long
    as the alternative service or technology provides similar functionality for the Service. The definition of “Service”
    includes the alternative service. Hypertec shall not be responsible if any changes in the Services affect the performance
    of equipment, hardware or software other than Hypertec provided equipment or cause it to become obsolete or require modification
    or attention. Hypertec shall provide the Customer with a 60-day prior notice of any such change. Customer acknowledges that
    Hypertec may interrupt the Services, as may be specified in the Service Schedules or in case of emergency, in order to provide
    maintenance in respect of the Services.
	 	 
	5.4	WAIVER:
    THE WARRANTIES PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS. THE CUSTOMER WAIVES ALL OTHER
    WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
    PURPOSE, OR AVAILABILITY OR RELIABILITY OF THE SERVICES.
