NOBLE
LIBERTAS VI CORPORATION — SOFTWARE LICENSE & SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
1. PARTIES AND SCOPE. This agreement is between Noble Libertas VI Corporation
("Noble"), provider of the Noble Libertas Tax Pro software division, and the
subscribing tax preparation business identified in its approved registration. Noble
grants only the limited access rights established by the executed contract and assigned
license.
2. LICENSE; OWNERSHIP. Subject to an active subscription, payment, verification and
compliance, Noble grants a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable right to access the
software for the subscriber's authorized internal tax preparation operations. Noble
and its licensors retain all rights to software, source code, branding and intellectual
property. No ownership is conveyed.
3. SUBSCRIPTION AND FEES. Applicable plan, included user capacity, return allowances,
additional charges, payment dates and renewal terms are those agreed upon in the
subscriber's approved order. Every newly registered PTIN holder, including a
replacement, owes the separately established annual PTIN registration fee. Company
obligations to recover employee-related charges do not transfer liability to Noble.
4. AUTHORIZED USERS. Subscriber must identify and maintain authorized company
administrators, EFIN holders and PTIN preparers; prohibit account sharing; secure
credentials; promptly terminate former staff access; and ensure each person acts solely
within their approved role.
5. TAX PRACTICE RESPONSIBILITIES. Subscriber remains independently responsible for
taxpayer engagement, client consent, accurate return preparation, compliance with
applicable tax laws, confidentiality, verification of EFIN/PTIN credentials, and
obtaining and retaining required taxpayer signatures and authorizations. Noble does not
become a taxpayer's engagement party solely by licensing software.
6. IRS E-FILING. A PTIN preparer's submission within the software is a submission
for internal EFIN-holder review, not transmission to the IRS. Only a specifically
designated and authorized EFIN holder may approve and initiate actual transmission when
supported and lawfully enabled. Product descriptions do not guarantee IRS connectivity.
7. SECURITY AND PRIVACY. Subscriber must safeguard taxpayer information, limit access to
authorized personnel, report suspected incidents promptly, follow written security
procedures and cooperate in remediation. Subscriber must use appropriate administrative,
technical and physical safeguards, restrict access to personnel with a business need,
and notify Noble promptly of known or suspected unauthorized platform access. Each party
must comply with applicable privacy and data-protection obligations.
8. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION. Noble may suspend access to mitigate a material security
risk or unauthorized use, and may suspend or terminate access for material breach or
unpaid charges after notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure where appropriate. Upon
termination, Subscriber may request export of its records through available platform
tools, subject to legal retention, security, and applicable account obligations.
Termination does not transfer ownership of the software to Subscriber.
9. WARRANTIES, LIMITATIONS AND DISPUTES. Noble will provide the software services
described in the applicable order and published product documentation. Scheduled
maintenance, third-party services, regulatory changes, and interruptions may affect
availability. Neither party waives rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.
The parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve contract disputes by written
notice and direct discussion. Any additional negotiated commercial terms must be
included in the applicable signed order or written amendment.
10. EXECUTION. The company representative must have authority to bind the subscribing
legal entity. A signature must identify the exact published document version and be
retained in Noble's secure acceptance history.
Read the entire agreement before signing. Applicable subscription details
must be confirmed in the company’s approved order.
