For clarity, Document Count may be referred to as “Per Agreement” pricing on an Order Form. 

5.3  Overages.

(a) Seats. For a subscription to DocuSign CLM based on Seat Allowance, if Customer, through its Account Administrator, adds more Authorized Users than permitted under the Seat Allowance, then Customer shall be charged for one additional Seat for each additional Authorized User for the remainder of the Term on a pro rata basis, calculated based on the amount of time remaining in the Term, at the then-current list price for Users of the applicable subscription type (or such other amount as may be specified on the Order Form). Such charges would be immediately due and payable at the time the additional Authorized User(s) was added.

(b) eDocuments. For a subscription to DocuSign CLM based on Document Count, if Customer holds or processes eDocuments in DocuSign CLM in excess of the permitted Document Count specified on the applicable Order Form(s), then Customer shall be charged a per-eDocument overage fee for each eDocument held or processed in excess of the permitted Document Count at the then-current list price for the applicable subscription type (or such other amount as is specified on the Order Form). Such overage charges would be invoiced monthly in arrears.
