PMG shall provide reasonable assistance to help Customer install and operate each new Release, provided that such assistance, if required, shall be subject to rates set forth in the Master Agreement, Exhibit B.
1.6 PMG shall consider and evaluate the development of Enhancements for the specific use of Customer and shall respond to Customer's requests for additional services pertaining to the Licensed Program (including, without limitation, data conversion and report-formatting assistance), provided that such assistance, if agreed to be provided, shall be subject to rates in Master Agreement, Exhibit B or a new Order mutually agreed to by PMG and Customer.
1.7 After Hours Support charges shall apply regardless of the underlying cause of the issue for which support is sought, including, without limitation, application errors, bugs, and errors caused during Regular Hours Support.
