Openflow Connector for Oracle Addendum
Last Updated: August 29, 2025
This Openflow Connector for Oracle Addendum (the “Addendum”) supplements, and is made part of, the Connector Terms and governs Customer’s use of the OCO Offering. By accessing or using the OCO Offering, Customer is accepting all of the terms and conditions of the Connector Terms and this Addendum, which constitutes a Paid Connector Addendum to the Connector Terms. This Addendum is enforceable like any written agreement signed by Customer and Snowflake. In the event of any conflict between this Addendum and the Connector Terms, this Addendum will govern with respect to the subject matter herein.
IF YOU ARE USING THE OCO OFFERING AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONTRACTOR, OR AGENT OF A CORPORATION, PARTNERSHIP OR SIMILAR ENTITY, THEN YOU MUST BE AUTHORIZED TO SIGN FOR AND BIND SUCH ENTITY IN ORDER TO ACCEPT THE TERMS OF THIS ADDENDUM, AND YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DO SO. THE RIGHTS GRANTED UNDER THIS ADDENDUM ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON ACCEPTANCE BY SUCH AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.
1. DEFINITIONS. The definitions in Section 11 (Defined Terms) below and defined elsewhere in this Addendum apply to this Addendum. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Connector Terms.
2. GENERAL.
2.1. Applicability. This Addendum governs Customer’s use of the OCO Offering. Customer may elect to use the OCO Offering in one of two ways:
“Embedded License Use” means use of the OCO Offering wherein Customer pays OCO Fees to Snowflake to use the Supplier API as part of the OCO Offering; and
“Independent License Use” means use of the OCO Offering wherein Customer obtains and maintains a valid license (independently of Snowflake and this Addendum) to use the Supplier API as part of the OCO Offering.
2.2. Provisioning. Snowflake will make the OCO Offering available for use by Customer and its Authorized Users solely in accordance with this Addendum and the Documentation.
3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
3.1. License Grant for Embedded License Use. Subject to and conditioned on Customer’s payment of the OCO Fees and compliance with all other terms of this Addendum and the Connector Terms, Snowflake hereby grants to Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable license to use the Supplier API for the Permitted Use for the Duration.
3.2. Snowflake and Supplier Rights. Snowflake and its suppliers have and will retain all right, title, and interest (including, without limitation, all patent, copyright, trade secret, or other proprietary rights) in and to the OCO Offering, and any modifications, improvements, and derivative works of the foregoing. The OCO Offering is licensed, not sold.
4. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS.
4.1. Mutual. Each Party represents and warrants that it has validly entered into this Addendum and has the legal power to do so.
4.2. Embedded License Use. If Customer elects the Embedded License Use of the OCO Offering, Customer represents, warrants, and covenants that it will accurately and completely report to Snowflake within the Service, based on Customer’s use (including any subsequent changes) of the Supplier API: (i) Customer’s Licensed Core count; and (ii) any applicable Licensing Factors.
4.3. Independent License Use. If Customer elects the Independent License Use of the OCO Offering, Customer represents, warrants, and covenants that it has and will maintain a valid license to use the Supplier API as part of the OCO Offering pursuant to a separate, pre-existing agreement (e.g., for Oracle “GoldenGate” or successor program).
5. APPLICABILITY. The following sections of this Addendum will not apply to Customer’s Independent License Use of the OCO Offering: Section 3.1 (License Grant for Embedded License Use); Section 6 (Fees and Payment); and Section 7 (Oracle Passthrough Terms).
6. FEES AND PAYMENT.
6.1. Fees. Customer agrees to pay all OCO Fees as set forth in Exhibit A.
6.2. Payment.
6.2.1. Capacity. If Customer has sufficient Capacity, Snowflake will deduct OCO Fees from Customer’s remaining Capacity balance on a monthly basis in advance.
6.2.2. On-Demand. If Customer does not have sufficient Capacity for Snowflake to deduct the OCO Fees, Customer will pay Snowflake the OCO Fees in accordance with the on-demand payment terms of the Customer Agreement.
6.2.3. No Restricted Commercial Arrangements. Customer may not pay for its Embedded License Use using a Restricted Commercial Arrangement. If Customer originally elects the Embedded License Use under a Valid Commercial Arrangement and later switches to a Restricted Commercial Arrangement, Customer agrees to cease the Embedded License Use immediately at the end of the Duration. For clarity, this section does not restrict Customer’s Independent License Use of the OCO Offering.
6.2.4. Right of Acceleration.
6.2.4.1. Acceleration Triggers. If any of the following events occur, Snowflake may declare all outstanding and incurred OCO Fees due and payable immediately as a single lump sum payment: (i) this Addendum is terminated pursuant to Section 10 (Term and Termination); or (ii) Customer ceases to have a Valid Commercial Arrangement to pay OCO Fees.
6.2.4.2. Accelerated Payment. If Customer has a remaining Capacity balance, Snowflake will deduct the accelerated amount from such Capacity balance, and Customer will promptly remit to Snowflake any remaining amount in accordance with the on-demand payment terms of the Customer Agreement.
6.3. Taxes. OCO Fees do not include Taxes. Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder, including without limitation all use or access of the OCO Offering by its Authorized Users. If Snowflake has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, Snowflake will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides Snowflake with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. Taxes will not be deducted from payments to Snowflake, except as required by applicable law, in which case Customer will increase the amount payable as necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings, Snowflake receives and retains (free from any liability for Taxes) an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. Upon Snowflake’s request, Customer will provide to Snowflake its proof of withholding tax remittance to the respective tax authority. Where applicable, Customer will provide its VAT/GST registration number(s) to confirm the business use of the OCO Offering.
7. ORACLE PASSTHROUGH TERMS.
7.1. Customer may not permit its Affiliates to use the Supplier API under this Addendum. However, Customer may permit its users, agents, or contractors to use the Supplier API (subject to this Addendum) if such use is solely for the benefit of Customer.

Where any audit reveals an underpayment, Customer will promptly remit to Snowflake the full amount of such underpayment.

7.16. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Snowflake may report Customer’s Licensed Core count, any applicable Licensing Factors, name, and address to Oracle America, Inc.
