So originally I was going to do a top of pole mount (four poles, 6 panels each) but after talking with my HOA they denied it on grounds of it being "visible from another lot" which I'm pretty sure is not legal in Texas given it's solar access laws. They also insist that it is below my 6 foot wrought iron fence. (which I'm assuming is to keep it from being visible, but its a iron fence that you can see through) To help mask the panels from view, I figured I could try using EcoFoot2+ mounts, they are intended for flat roof installs, but should be fine on a ground mount setup and easier to hide. They also have the additional benefit of not needing to dig and pour concrete

So after talking with the city, they think I have everything in order, but want PE stamped designs for both electrical and structural as they normally get for their roof installs. I've spoke with renvu solar and they referred me to http://solarpermitservices.com, it seems most places that offer to do the permitting documents for you also offer to get PE stamps for an undisclosed additional fee, which I'm still not sure how expensive it will end up being or if they will not like using a flat roof mount on ground.

Anyone have any other suggestions on where to get PE stamps in/for Texas?

In terms of equipment I have already purchased the following:
-24 LG355S2W-A5 PV Panels
-24 IQ7Plus micro-inverters
-Enphase Q cables (landscape 72 cell), terminators, aggregator, combiner box
-60 amp AC disconnect
-PV label stickers

Waiting on getting the permit before buying any mounts, and I plan to get an electrician to do the final connection and help out with what he can

Edit: Noticed another post that mentions Yoursolarplans.com, so I'll try them too

My county (Riverside, CA) requires structural and electrical stamps. I was planning on using Yoursolarplans.com, they charge $450 to generate the plans and have a EE stamp them, and another $200 for the structural calcs and stamp. So $650 to have everything prepared and stamps, and minor revisions are free.

I also considered making the plans myself (I'm a PE, but mechanical) and hiring a PE to review and stamp them. I used PE 4 hire and got some quotes in the range of $150-$200 for each stamp. So I figured I might as well pay yoursolarplans.com to do everything. I'd only be saving $200, plus I'm sure I'd miss a few things and multiple trips to the permit office isn't worth $200.

Yeah, I'll probably try Greenlancer next, I got stamps and plans from http://solarpermitservices.com/ -- but I'm 90% sure they are just forging engineering stamps as I don't see the engineer who stamped what I got on the Texas PE board look up, total cost is at $690 right now, might have to dispute on my credit card

Edit: Now that I think about it, the point of a stamp is to be on a paper copy in ink and physically stamped, not the pdf I was emailed which is probably photoshopped

thank you for this. They have very good prices on basically rubber stamping exsisiting drawings, which is all I need for my current project. Is this how you use it too? I did not see many offers for a complete system design though. Seems like one has to do most of the leg work themselves. Of course could be different form state to state. What is your experience with them. ?

**awright2009** · 09-05-2019, 11:35 PM

Just to follow up, I sent the docs from solar permit services to the city to see what they would say. They didn't complain about the electrical stamp, but want structural analysis for wind loading according to the 2015 International Residential Code (which I'm not sure actually applies to ground mounted solar)

I'm dealing with BEStructural.com to get that done ($700) probably could have gotten it cheaper, but I think they will get it taken care of

solarpermitservices backed out of the structural part for some reason (refund pending)

**awright2009** · 09-28-2019, 06:28 PM

So I posted a while back here about to give up, but after the forum went down away my post went. (Which is probably a good thing) Oh well. I've had a change of heart since then, probably lacked will more so due to some extreme dieting and a long work day. I finally got a call back from the city and they have my permit after giving them the structural calc's from BEStructural. A lot more 4x8x16 astm blocks that I thought originally, but should work out fine in the end. What I didn't expect was the fact that my yard will need a lot of grading (one tree needs to get cut down too, but I saw that coming) I figure I'll just contact a patio company and have them do it for me, maybe paver bricks/stones/concrete depending on how much it ends up costing me.

Still waiting on the HOA though, hopefully I can still finish this year, if not no big deal. Still 100 degrees in Texas so the weather is cooperating

JUST SUBMITTED a lot of paperwork to Greenlancer, hopefully they can approve everything. with sunny15 coupon code only cost about $400 for structural and electrical which Is cheaper than I have found anywhere else. so I'm skeptical but hopeful.

Greenlancer can submit designs to an AHJ and work with an AHJ to get a design through review, any modification and AHJ approval, but I doubt Greenlancer can approve anything.

**khanh dam** · 10-07-2019, 08:26 PM

they provide stamped engineering structural drawings and do wind load calcs for s5! connectors from what I have read.

**khanh dam** · 10-07-2019, 09:00 PM

they do make you agree to an absurdly long list of terms:

CUSTOMER and FULFILLMENT PARTNER hereby agree as follows:

1. General Description of Services. FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) agree to provide the services set forth in detail in the scope of work ("FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services") to CUSTOMER. CUSTOMER understands that each Predefined Scope of Work, known as “Gigs,” set forth in the scope of work may be and likely will be assigned to different FULFILLMENT PARTNERS to perform each separate Gig. CUSTOMER understands that each FULFILLMENT PARTNER will be responsible solely for their assigned Gig and specified Deliverable, but that CUSTOMER will ultimately receive one final and complete Work Product for its use, as contemplated in this Agreement. CUSTOMER and any FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) agree and understand that multiple, separate FULFILLMENT PARTNERS may be counterparties to the CUSTOMER under this Agreement. CUSTOMER and FULFILLMENT PARTNER further agree that their identities shall remain anonymous from one another, and that they shall not attempt to learn the identity of one another. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GreenLancer shall be permitted to disclose the identity of any Users if legally obligated to do so or for any lawful purpose related to a lawsuit, a Claim, a dispute, or any other legal matter.

2. Addition/Modification of Services. The Services are not subject to modification or addition unless FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) or GreenLancer obtain written approval of the modification/addition electronically signed by CUSTOMER ("Change Order"). The contents of a written Change Order shall include at a minimum all of the following: (a) a description of the particular modification/addition to the Services; (b) the amount of any change in CUSTOMER’s price and FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S Compensation (as defined below) resulting from the modification/addition; (c) any revisions in commencement, completion, or delivery dates, if any, resulting from the modification; and (d) CUSTOMER's electronic signature. GreenLancer shall not assign any modification/addition to the FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services, nor shall GreenLancer or any FULFILLMENT PARTNER incur any Management Fees or FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation (as defined herein) with respect to such modification/addition until they have obtained an electronically signed Change Order for such modification/addition.

3. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date this Agreement and the scope of work are executed by CUSTOMER and all FULFILLMENT PARTNERS that will be a party hereto execute this agreement and accept their designated Gigs, and shall continue in effect until each Gig and all Work Product is completed under this agreement and accepted by CUSTOMER, or when GreenLancer and FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) receive notice of termination from CUSTOMER (“Termination Notice") terminating this Agreement, which termination may be with or without cause. If CUSTOMER terminates this Agreement without cause, FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) shall be paid by CUSTOMER for the Deliverables completed and rendered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement up to the Termination Date, and, if any Deliverable or Gig is completed and rendered to CUSTOMER, GreenLancer shall be paid its entire Management Fee.

4. FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation. Except as otherwise provided in any Change Order electronically signed or accepted by CUSTOMER, FULFILLMENT PARTNER shall be compensated ("FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S Compensation") on the basis specified in the gig documentation. FULFILLMENT PARTNER shall not be paid until the CUSTOMER has accepted all Work Product and any Deliverables. Once CUSTOMER accepts such Work Product and any Deliverables, GreenLancer shall distribute the compensation out of CUSTOMER’S Payment Method or third-party Payment Service Provider account, 45 days after acceptance of the work product. Receipt of Payment from the CUSTOMER to GreenLancer for the FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S work is a condition precedent to GreenLancer’s obligation to make a payment to the FULFILLMENT PARTNER, regardless of the reason for CUSTOMER’S nonpayment, whether attributable to any FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S), to GreenLancer, or to any other cause or no cause at all. At no time shall GreenLancer be liable to FULFILLMENT PARTNERS for any payment amount if a CUSTOMER fails to make payment through the GreenLancer Platform; GreenLancer simply facilitates the payment and makes sure it is paid out properly from the CUSTOMER’S Payment Method or third-party Payment Service Provider account. FULFILLMENT PARTNER acknowledges and agrees that its payment for the FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services is being paid from the CUSTOMER, and that GreenLancer is merely facilitating and approving of the payment as CUSTOMER’S agent. GreenLancer may, in its sole discretion and option, pre-pay FULFILLMENT PARTNERs for their work performed with cash on hand, regardless of whether or not the CUSTOMER has paid for that FULFILLMENT PARTNERs specific Gig. This option at GreenLancer’s discretion, however, does not waiver or alter the fact that GreenLancer is not obligated to make any payment until the CUSTOMER has made its payment, and waiver of GreenLancer’s obligation in one instance does not constitute a waiver in any other or future instances.

5. GreenLancer’s Management Fee. GreenLancer shall be paid a Management Fee from the CUSTOMER. CUSTOMER agrees that GreenLancer is entitled to this Management Fee for its services as CUSTOMER’s agent and for use of the GreenLancer Platform and Site. This amount is non-refundable and is due to GreenLancer as soon as CUSTOMER places the Work Product or any Deliverables contemplated in this Agreement, or are deemed to have requested such Work Product or any Deliverable. FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) agree that GreenLancer has the right and entitlement to have its Management Fee distributed to it prior to any FULFILLMENT PARTNER is paid its FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation, and in the event that a CUSTOMER’S Payment Method or third-party Payment Service Provider account has insufficient funds to pay all FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation and the GreenLancer Compensation, GreenLancer has the right to have its compensation distributed to it in full first, before paying any FULFILLMENT PARTNER(s).

**khanh dam** · 10-07-2019, 09:01 PM

6. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR STATUS. IN PROVIDING THE FULFILLMENT PARTNER SERVICES, FULFILLMENT PARTNER IS ACTING AS AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR TO THE CUSTOMER AND THIS AGREEMENT IS NOT INTENDED TO, NOR DOES IT, CREATE ANY EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND FULFILLMENT PARTNER, BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND GREENLANCER, OR BETWEEN GREENLANCER AND FULFILLMENT PARTNER, NOR SHALL IT BE CONSTRUED AS CREATING ANY JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN ANY OF THE FOREGOING PARTIES. FULFILLMENT PARTNER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT IS IN BUSINESS FOR ITSELF, HAS SOURCES OF INCOME AND LIVELIHOOD OUTSIDE OF ANY WORK IT MAY DO FOR CUSTOMER OR THROUGH THE GREENLANCER PLATFORM, IS NOT ECONOMICALLY DEPENDENT ON CUSTOMER OR GREENLANCER, AND IS ABLE TO AND WILL MANAGE ITS OWN WORKLOAD BY DETERMINING THE MEANS AND METHODS USED TO PERFORM ANY CONTRACTED-FOR GIG. FULFILLMENT PARTNER ALSO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT MAY ACCEPT THIS SERVICE AND GIG AGREEMENT AND AS MANY GIGS AS IT PLEASES, OR MAY REFUSE ANY WORK OFFERED TO IT FOR ANY REASON AT ANY TIME. FULFILLMENT PARTNER IS LEFT TO ITS OWN DISCRETION, DESIRE, AND BUSINESS DECISIONS TO TAKE AS MANY GIGS OR AS FEW GIGS AS IT WOULD LIKE (INCLUDING NONE AT ALL), TO WORK FOR AS MANY CUSTOMERS OR AS FEW CUSTOMERS AS IT WOULD LIKE (INCLUDING NO CUSTOMERS AT ALL), AND TO PROVIDE ITS SERVICES ON AND THROUGH OTHER PLATFORMS OTHER THAN WWW.GREENLANCER.COM, SO LONG AS SUCH WORK DOES NOT DIRECTLY CONFLICT WITH THE WORK PERFORMED ON GREENLANCER’S PLATFORM OR WORK CONTRACTED FOR WITH ANY CUSTOMERS. FULFILLMENT PARTNER WILL SET ITS OWN HOURS AND METHODS OF WORK, SO LONG AS ITS WORK MEET THE QUALITY STANDARDS CALLED FOR AND IS COMPLETED BY THE “COMPLETED BY” DATE OR TIME. FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S SERVICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AT ALL TIMES BY THE FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT, PREVIOUSLY EXECUTED BY FULFILLMENT PARTNER, WHICH IS EXPRESSLY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN.

7. Tax Reporting. FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) shall be responsible for all applicable federal, state, local, and other taxes related to FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S Compensation and neither CUSTOMER nor GreenLancer shall withhold or pay any such taxes on behalf of any FULFILLMENT PARTNER, including, without limitation, federal, state, and other local income taxes, and social security. Since FULFILLMENT PARTNER is acting solely as an independent contractor under this Agreement, FULFILLMENT PARTNER shall not be entitled to insurance, incentive pay, overtime, holiday pay, bonuses, healthcare, workers’ compensation, unemployment benefits, pension or retirement benefits, or other benefits that may be normally provided by either CUSTOMER to its employees or by GreenLancer to its employees.

8. Ownership of Work Product; CUSTOMER’s Works.

8.1 Work Product. It is understood and agreed that any Deliverables, including but not limited to drawings, designs, permits, plans, schematics, feasibility studies, studies of any kind, letters, maps, diagrams, investigations, permits, applications, materials, blue prints, publications, stamps, supplies reports, or any other items of any kind prepared or used in the course of performing the FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services (collectively referred to as “Work Product”) are for the sole and exclusive use of CUSTOMER and that CUSTOMER shall be deemed to be the sole and exclusive owner of all the intellectual property rights thereto under the common law, state law, federal law, any applicable international law, or any other applicable law of any kind. Upon payment by CUSTOMER of all undisputed fees and costs, all rights, title, and interest in and to the intellectual property rights to the Work Product, including but not limited to the copyrights thereto, shall be assigned, transferred, and conveyed to CUSTOMER and shall be the sole property of CUSTOMER. FULFILLMENT PARTNER(s) and GreenLancer agree not to challenge the validity of CUSTOMER's ownership of the Work Product and, upon termination of this Agreement, all of such Work Product (not previously delivered to CUSTOMER), shall be delivered to CUSTOMER or otherwise destroyed upon request by the CUSTOMER or by GreenLancer. GreenLancer and FULFILLMENT PARTNER agree, to the extent reasonably necessary, to cooperate with CUSTOMER or its designee(s), both during and after the term of this Agreement, in the procurement and maintenance of CUSTOMER's rights in the Work Product and to execute, when requested, any other documents deemed necessary by CUSTOMER to carry out the purpose of this Agreement, to apply for, register, perfect, confirm, and protect CUSTOMER's rights in the Work Product. Prior to payment of the undisputed fees, CUSTOMER shall have an exclusive license from GreenLancer and FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) to use the Work Product at its sole discretion. Any additional changes or modifications to the Work Product shall likewise become the sole property of CUSTOMER. FULFILLMENT PARTNER represents that it is the sole owner of any deliverable or Work Product copyrights that it delivers to CUSTOMER or that it is otherwise authorized to legally transfer exclusive copyright ownership to CUSTOMER. FULFILLMENT PARTNER further represents that the Work Product is an original creation for CUSTOMER. Work Product shall be delivered to CUSTOMER in whatever format is mandated in the scope of work.

8.2 CUSTOMER’s Works. In the course of FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S Services, CUSTOMER may furnish plans, materials, drawings, research, prototypes, blueprints, schematics, or other materials belonging to CUSTOMER (“CUSTOMER’s Work”). CUSTOMER's Works and all copyright interests thereto are now and, regardless of any work performed on CUSTOMER's Works by FULFILLMENT PARTNER, shall remain the sole property of CUSTOMER. FULFILLMENT PARTNER has no legal or copyright interest in all or any portion of CUSTOMER's Works, and any interest in them which FULFILLMENT PARTNER may acquire is hereby assigned to CUSTOMER. FULFILLMENT PARTNER has no right to use, copy, alter, distribute, or modify CUSTOMER's Works after the time this Agreement terminates, ends, or is no longer in effect.

8.3 Additional Terms Governing Work Product and CUSTOMER's Works. Neither FULFILLMENT PARTNER nor its employees, sub-contractors, or agents will distribute, copy, or otherwise use any of the Work Product or CUSTOMER's Works without CUSTOMER's express written consent. FULFILLMENT PARTNER will promptly deliver all originals and copies of the Work Product and CUSTOMER's Works at the termination of this Agreement or upon CUSTOMER's request, or, if requested to do so, destroy any CUSTOMER’s Work or information and provide verification of same in accordance with FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S Independent Contractor Agreement. As to both the Work Product and CUSTOMER's Works, CUSTOMER shall have the right to copy, distribute, and utilize such works on an unlimited basis to its divisions and affiliates, in any location, without the payment of any additional fee.

8.4 CUSTOMER’S Acceptance of Work Product and Deliverables. Once all Deliverables and Work Product are provided to CUSTOMER as final, CUSTOMER shall have three days (72 Hours) from the time it is electronically provided with the Work Product to either Accept the Work Product in whole, or to reject the Work Product for any reason. If CUSTOMER does not reject the Work Product within three days (72 Hours) of receiving the Work Product or at any time whatsoever uses the Work Product in or for its Project, the Work Product will be deemed accepted. Once the Work Product is Accepted, GreenLancer may facilitate the payment of all FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation and its own Management Fee out of the CUSTOMER’S Payment Method or third-party Payment Service Provider account and all Work Product and any Deliverables will be deemed as final with no further opportunity for refunds, returns, requested corrections or modifications, or any further obligations by any FULFILLMENT PARTNER or by GreenLancer. Any subsequent work, corrections, modifications, or any other requests after Work Product has been accepted or deemed accepted shall be an additional purchase, necessitating an additional Service and Gig Agreement, for an additional cost and Management Fee.

8.5 CUSTOMER’S Rejection or Requested Correction or Modification of Work Product and Deliverables. If, within the three day (72 Hour) period described in Section 8.4 above the CUSTOMER rejects the Work Product in whole or in part, or if any portion thereof does not meet the quality standards demanded in the scope of work or for any other just cause, GreenLancer will review the materials for quality assurance, or will contract such quality assurance to a FULFILLMENT PARTNER, as GreenLancer sees fit. If any work needs to be corrected or modified, GreenLancer or another FULFILLMENT PARTNER will make the corrections or modifications, at which time the CUSTOMER will be given the opportunity to review the Work Product as in Section 8.4 directly above and will have the opportunity to accept or reject the corrected Work Product (or have such Work Product deemed accepted). CUSTOMER will not be charged for the Work Product until such time it accepts the Work Product or it is deemed accepted. GreenLancer, however, reserves the right to dispute CUSTOMER’s rejections if GreenLancer believes, after adequate and reasonable review, that such Work Product is in conformance with the specifications in the scope of work. If GreenLancer, in its sole discretion, believes that a CUSTOMER is improperly rejecting conforming and adequate Work Product, it may freeze CUSTOMER’S Payment Method or third-party Payment Service Provider account in the amount allocated for the FULFILLMENT PARTNER Compensation and Management Fee called for in this Service and Gig Agreement. If GreenLancer takes this action, CUSTOMER shall have 90 days to initiate a Claim as set forth in Paragraph 14 of the User Account Agreement. If no Claim is initiated in that 90-day period, the Work Product in this Service and Gig Agreement will be deemed accepted and GreenLancer shall be entitled to distribute the amount attributable to all FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services called for in this Agreement and to receive its Management Fee.

9. Confidentiality. CUSTOMER, FULFILLMENT PARTNER, and GreenLancer each and all acknowledge and understand that all information relating in any way to any of the Parties’ or their business or affairs, whether written or oral, obtained by another Party in connection with this Agreement or any purchased FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services and any information regarding the nature and extent of the FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services (“Confidential Information”), shall, unless otherwise specified in writing, be deemed confidential. Furthermore, any Work Product created hereunder shall be considered Confidential Information. All Parties agree and acknowledge that the Confidential Information shall at all times be the sole and absolute property of the Party who furnished and/or owned or controlled the Confidential Information (the “Disclosing Party”) to any other Party (the “Receiving Party”) and no license or other rights to the Confidential Information is granted or implied hereby. The Parties acknowledge and understand that unauthorized disclosure of any Party’s Confidential Information would be extremely prejudicial to the Disclosing Party. Therefore, the Parties shall not disclose to any person or entity any Confidential Information unless such disclosure is authorized in writing by the Disclosing Party. If a Receiving Party discloses or threatens to disclose Confidential Information in violation of its obligations under this Section, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to temporary or permanent injunctive relief prohibiting the disclosure of such Confidential Information. All Parties may share Confidential Information with employees, subcontractors, or agents who agree to be and are similarly bound by this confidentiality provision. If any Party is served with any subpoena or other legal process seeking the compelled disclosure of another Party’s Confidential Information, that Party shall notify the Disclosing Party within twenty-four (24) hours after receipt of such legal process. A Disclosing Party may, in its sole and absolute discretion and at its sole expense, contest the disclosure of such Confidential Information sought under such legal process or otherwise seek to quash any legal process or subpoena. Only after a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction requiring the disclosure of such Confidential Information may a Receiving Party disclose such Confidential Information as required by law. This prohibition of disclosure of Confidential Information shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Any Receiving Party hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold a Disclosing Party and its affiliates, partners, employees, and agents harmless from any and all loss, damage, or liability which results from or arises in connection with the Receiving Party’s breach of its obligations under this Section.

UPON TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR UPON REQUEST, FULFILLMENT PARTNER WILL RETURN, OR GIVE WRITTEN CERTIFICATION BY EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT OF THE DESTRUCTION OF ALL CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION IN ANY FORM, WHETHER TANGIBLE OR DIGITAL FORM, INCLUDING ALL COPIES THEREOF, WHICH ARE IN FULFILLMENT PARTNER’S POSSESSION OR CONTROL.

10. Prohibited Activities.

10.1 FULFILLMENT PARTNER shall not, either individually or in association with any other individual or entity, knowingly perform services or engage in any activities that will either directly or indirectly conflict or compete with CUSTOMER’s or GreenLancer’s business(es) or interests.

10.2 FULFILLMENT PARTNER agrees, during the term of a Predefined Scope of Work, not to enter into a contract or accept an obligation that is inconsistent or incompatible with FULFILLMENT PARTNER'S obligations under any assigned Predefined Scope of Work, Service Agreement, or Gig Agreement. FULFILLMENT PARTNER warrants that there is no such contract or obligation in effect as of the date FULFILLMENT PARTNER accepts any Gig, Predefined Scope of Work, Service Agreement, or Gig Agreement and none will take effect thereafter that could interfere with such accepted work. FULFILLMENT PARTNER further agrees not to disclose to, deliver to, or induce CUSTOMER to use any confidential information that belongs to anyone other than CUSTOMER or FULFILLMENT PARTNER.

10.3 FULFILLMENT PARTNER agrees that should it learn the identity of the CUSTOMER that it came into contact with, learned the identity of, first came to know, or otherwise learned of through the GreenLancer Site or GreenLancer Platform or this Agreement, FULFILLMENT PARTNER will not contact CUSTOMER, will not solicit work from CUSTOMER, will not offer, advertise, or seek to provide his or her services to CUSTOMER, or will otherwise not accept any offers to provide his or her services or so provide his or her services to CUSTOMER outside of the GreenLancer Site or Platform. Should FULFILLMENT PARTNER perform any work for a CUSTOMER within a two-year period from the date of the last service provided by the FULFILLMENT PARTNER through the Site, FULFILLMENT PARTNER will forfeit any and all amount(s) earned from the CUSTOMER for such work and agrees that any such compensation will be due and owing to GreenLancer. FULFILLMENT PARTNER further agrees that any breach of this provision could cause immediate and irreparable harm to GreenLancer and that, as a result, GreenLancer will be entitled to seek equitable and injunctive relief against any FULFILLMENT PARTNER for violation of this provision or potential future provision, including but not limited to a Temporary Restraining Order, a Preliminary Injunction, and a Permanent Injunction.

10.4 CUSTOMER agrees to notify GreenLancer immediately of any violation of this Section 10.3. In the event of a violation of Subsection 10.3 above, FULFILLMENT PARTNER shall pay to GreenLancer any and all amounts received by CUSTOMER or any other individual or entity described above in violation of Subsection 10.3, however, such payment shall not limit, or operate as a waiver of, any other legal or equitable rights that GreenLancer may have against FULFILLMENT PARTNER at law, in equity, or under this Agreement, including without limitation, the right to equitable relief or punitive damages for such violation. Any violation of Section 10.3 is grounds for immediate and automatic disbarment of the offending FULFILLMENT PARTNER from the GreenLancer Platform and is a material breach of the FULFILLMENT PARTNER’s Independent Contractor Agreement.

10.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, FULFILLMENT PARTNER may, and represents that it does, perform work for any others aside from CUSTOMER or through the GreenLancer Platform, and represents that it does not rely solely on CUSTOMER or the GreenLancer Platform for its livelihood or income.

11. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, once CUSTOMER accepts any Work Product or Deliverables, CUSTOMER, for any reason, including for its own acts or failure to act, for those of its agents, employees, suppliers, or other representatives (including those employed directly or indirectly by such agents, employees, suppliers, etc.) (collectively, the “CUSTOMER Representatives”), shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless GreenLancer and FULFILLMENT PARTNER(S) and their affiliates or representatives, partners, stockholders, designees, officers, directors, agents, and employees and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”), from any and all losses, costs, expenses, reasonable attorneys' fees, and other costs of defense incurred in defending against any claim(s) or in enforcing this indemnity and defense obligation, liabilities, claims, court costs, demands, debts, causes of action, fines, judgments, and penalties (collectively, “Liability”) which may arise from or relate to: (a) any work, liabilities, damages, alleged negligence, product failures, product liabilities, or any and all claims of whatever nature arising out of the CUSTOMER’s Project; (b) death or injury to people or damage or injury to property in connection with the performance of the Project; (c) the negligent acts, errors, or omissions of FULFILLMENT PARTNER in connection with the performance of any FULFILLMENT PARTNER Services; (d) any and all liens, stop notices, and charges of any type, nature, kind, or description which may at any time be filed or claimed against the site of the Project or any portion thereof or the CUSTOMER in connection with performance of the Services; (e) any claim(s) under workers' compensation acts, disability benefits acts, and other employee benefit acts, (provided, however, the indemnity and defense obligation hereunder shall not be limited by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable under such acts); (f) violation of any local, state, or federal law, regulation, or code; or (g) infringement of any patent, trademark, or copyright, or violation of trade secret or other proprietary right, in connection with performance of the Services.
