 WHEREAS, Provider has provided, or is expected to provide, software and information technology support services to Company, including configuration, maintenance, and enablement of point-of-sale (“POS”) system settings and functionalities (the “Settings and Features”), which may include capabilities allowing the processing of transactions with or without an active internet or cellular connection, commonly referred to as “Offline Mode” or “Store and Forward Mode”;
