Common use of Proof of Entitlement Clause in Contracts

Proof of Entitlement. IBM specifies a Program’s authorized use in a Proof of Entitlement (called “▇▇▇”). Examples of the measure of the level of authorized use include, but are not limited to, the number of copies, processors, or users. This ▇▇▇, supported by your matching paid invoice or receipt, is evidence of your level of authorized use. During the period this Agreement remains in effect, and for two years thereafter, IBM has the right to verify your compliance with this Agreement on your premises during your normal business hours and in a manner that minimizes disruption to your business. IBM may use an independent auditor for this with your prior approval, which you will not unreasonably withhold.
