If the Offering Identification applicable to the Consulting Services sets out Working Days, time consumed by medical or holiday leave will not be counted towards any pre-purchased Working Days, however, medical or holiday leave will not extend the Term for which Working Days are applicable.

At your request, Unity will furnish you with copies of receipts and other customary documentation for any expenses for which Unity requests reimbursement hereunder.
4. Working Days
If the Offering Identification sets out Working Days, metrics and/or timelines, you acknowledge and agree that these are estimates and that such estimates may increase where Unity ascertains that additional work is required or where there are any delays caused by you.
If you have purchased a prepaid pool of Working Days, Unity will determine, in its sole discretion, the number of Working Days required to fulfill each of your requests; and (c) as permitted by applicable law, the pool of Working Days must be consumed within twelve (12) months of purchase, or prior to the end of the Term, whichever is sooner. Any Working Days not so scheduled will otherwise expire.
If you require hours in addition to the hours provided for standard Consulting Services or a mutually agreed upon in the Statement of Work, such additional hours must be requested by you and approved by Unity in writing in advance (“Additional Hours”). If approved, Additional Hours will be charged on a pro-rata basis and uplifted by 200% on weekends and public holidays in the country the Services are being delivered from and 150% on Working Days.

You agree to provide Unity with timely updates of any changes in requirements, delivery schedule or other project-related information that may impact Unity’s delivery of Consulting Services. Upon receipt of your Change Request, Unity will estimate the financial and schedule impact, if any. The parties will review these estimates to determine whether the Change Request and its impact are mutually acceptable. If the parties agree on the Change Request, Unity will attach the final Change Request to the applicable Offering Identification.
