All payments are due within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of an invoice from WSO2 and are non-refundable. WSO2 may suspend or cancel performance of all or part of the Subscription or Services and may change its credit terms (after notifying You) if actual payment is not received within sixty (60) calendar days of Your receipt of WSO2’s invoice. Payments past due sixty (60) calendar days will incur interest at the rate of 9 percentage points above the ECB basic interest rate per year.

If You are required under any applicable law or regulation, domestic or foreign, to withhold or deduct any portion of the payments due to WSO2, then the sum payable to WSO2 will be increased by the amount necessary so that WSO2 receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had Subscriber made no withholdings or deductions.
