Co-Delivery — Tier B Addendum (Price-Lock Commitment)

DRAFT — 2026-05-12. Pending review by counsel. To be signed in conjunction with (or after) the base Co-Delivery Agreement.

Parties

This Addendum is entered into between Base2ML LLC ("Base2ML") and [FIRM NAME] ("Firm") and references their Co-Delivery Agreement dated [DATE].

Purpose

Following the successful completion of the no-fee co-delivery engagement under the base Co-Delivery Agreement, both Parties wish to extend their relationship through a price-locked commitment to additional engagements.

Tier B terms

The Firm commits to:

  • Three (3) additional AuditForge engagements at $1,000 per engagement over a 6-month period beginning on the effective date of this Addendum
  • Total monetary commitment: $3,000
  • The 3 engagements may be on any client matters the Firm chooses, subject to AuditForge's standard scope guidelines (30–500 documents per engagement, supported file types)
  • Each engagement is billed upon completion of the deliverable

Base2ML commits to:

  • Price guaranteed at $1,000 per engagement for the 6-month term, regardless of any future changes to Base2ML's list pricing
  • Quarterly product input session (~30 min) where the Firm's partners may suggest features, integrations, or workflow priorities for AuditForge's roadmap
  • Founder direct line — chris@base2ml.com / Slack-equivalent direct channel for engagement-level questions; no support tier, no ticket queue
  • Co-marketing rights — the Firm may publish that they use Base2ML's AuditForge platform; Base2ML may list the Firm as a customer (subject to Firm's pre-approval of any specific language). Either Party may opt out of co-marketing without affecting the other terms of this Addendum
  • Roadmap-priority slot — once during the 6-month term, the Firm may nominate one feature for the AuditForge roadmap. Base2ML commits to considering the nomination seriously (review + written response within 30 days); not a guarantee of build, but a guarantee of consideration

What the Firm provides Base2ML

  • One written reference quote — usable by Base2ML in marketing materials, sales conversations, and investor communications. The Firm has approval rights over the specific quoted text.
  • One warm intro — Base2ML may request an introduction to one comparable-sized firm in the Firm's network during the 6-month term. The Firm commits to making the introduction in good faith; the introduced firm is under no obligation.

Engagement-level terms

Each of the three engagements is governed by the existing Co-Delivery Agreement except that:

  • A fee of $1,000 applies (no longer free)
  • The Firm is responsible for ensuring partner-level review and sign-off on each engagement's findings
  • Standard data isolation, audit log, methodology disclaimer, and chain-of-custody provisions all apply

Term and termination

This Addendum begins on the date signed by both Parties and ends on the earlier of:

  • 6 months after signing
  • Both Parties have fully delivered their scoped commitments (3 engagements completed + reference quote + warm intro made)
  • Either Party providing 30 days written notice of termination

Termination does not affect engagements already underway at the time of notice; those continue under their original terms.

If the Firm terminates before completing the 3 engagements, the price lock terminates with the Addendum but engagements already completed remain billed at $1,000. No retroactive list-pricing adjustment.

Future relationship

After this Addendum ends, the Parties may elect to:

  • Extend Tier B for another 6 months at the then-current pricing
  • Upgrade to Tier C (Strategic Partner — see separate Tier C Addendum)
  • Continue on a pay-as-you-go basis at Base2ML's list pricing

Neither Party is obligated to extend.
