GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

Except as otherwise provided in the section below entitled “Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver,” all matters relating to the Website and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Colorado without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Colorado or any other jurisdiction).

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. YOU AGREE THAT BY USING THE WEBSITE, OR BY OTHERWISE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE COMPANY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; YOU AND WE AGREE THAT CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, OR OTHER COMBINED PROCEEDINGS ARE NOT PERMITTED.

You and the Company agree that any and all claims and disputes arising from or relating in any way to the subject matter of these Terms of Use, your use of the Website, or your and the Company’s dealings with one another (including, but not limited to, your receipt of marketing telephone calls, text messages, emails, or other communications from or on behalf of the Company) shall be finally settled and resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION as described in this section. You and we also agree that the arbitration provision and class action waiver apply to claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct, and also apply to claims made independently or with other claims.

This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be interpreted broadly. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT “CLAIMS” AND “DISPUTES” SUBJECT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION THEREFORE ARE TO BE GIVEN THE BROADEST POSSIBLE MEANING AND INCLUDE CLAIMS OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, INITIAL CLAIMS, COUNTERCLAIMS, CROSS-CLAIMS, AND THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, AND CLAIMS BASED ON ANY FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL CONSTITUTION, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, WARRANTY, COMMON LAW RULE (INCLUDING RULES RELATING TO CONTRACTS, TORTS, NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, OR ANY OTHER INTENTIONAL WRONGS), AND EQUITY. THEY INCLUDE CLAIMS AND DISPUTES THAT SEEK RELIEF OF ANY TYPE—INCLUDING ACTUAL, STATUTORY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES AND/OR INJUNCTIVE, DECLARATORY, OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Generally, arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court, and review by a court is limited. Neither you nor the Company will be able to have a court or jury trial or participate in a class action or class arbitration. You and the Company each understand and agree that by agreeing to resolve any dispute through individual arbitration, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate or combine the claims or arbitrations of multiple parties.

In the event of a dispute, and before initiating an arbitration proceeding under this section, you and the Company agree that the party alleging a dispute must send to the other party a notice of dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, a brief summary the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any notice of dispute to [email protected] and/or via mail to Kredo Inc., 9540 Maroon Circle, Suite 310, Englewood, Colorado 80112, Attention: Legal. We will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information we have for you. You and the Company agree to attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the notice of dispute is sent. After that sixty (60) day period and not before, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding in accordance with this section.

If you and the Company do not resolve a dispute by informal negotiation, the dispute shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration will be governed by the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), as modified by this section. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS using one arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving consumer contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the JAMS Rules. If JAMS is unable or unwilling to arbitrate a dispute, then the dispute may be referred to any other arbitration organization or arbitrator that you and the Company both agree upon in writing or that is appointed pursuant to section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

For any claim where the total amount of the award sought is $10,000 or less, the arbitrator, you, and the Company must abide by the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted solely based on telephone or online remote appearances and/or written submissions (or some combination thereof); and (b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. If the claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules and the hearing (if any) will be conducted under the JAMS Rules in person (at a mutually agreeable location) or virtually by conference call, videoconference, or using other communications technology with participants in one or more geographical places, or in a combined form. The arbitrator’s ruling is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. The JAMS Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267.

This arbitration agreement involves interstate commerce and, therefore, shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (“FAA”), and not by state law. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE AUTHORIZED TO AWARD ALL REMEDIES AVAILABLE IN AN INDIVIDUAL LAWSUIT UNDER APPLICABLE SUBSTANTIVE LAW, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COMPENSATORY, STATUTORY, AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES, AS WELL AS DECLARATORY, INJUNCTIVE, AND OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF—INCLUDING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS.

In accordance with the JAMS Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or the Company) is responsible for paying the filing fee. However, if the arbitrator issues you an award of damages and: (a) that award is greater than the amount of our last written settlement offer; or (b) if we did not make a settlement offer, then in addition to paying for any JAMS Case Management Fees and all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services, we will reimburse you for the filing fees you incurred. Further, if you demonstrate that paying the arbitrator’s costs and fees would be prohibitively expensive for you, the Company shall pay those costs and fees regardless of whether you prevail in the arbitration—unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.

You and the Company empower the arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms of Use or the arbitration provision—including the formation of the Agreement, the arbitrability of any dispute, and any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use are void or voidable (such as, but not limited to, whether the arbitration provision is unconscionable).

Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary, you and we agree that if the class action waiver above is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration and any proceeding shall be brought and proceed exclusively in the state courts of competent jurisdiction located in Denver, Colorado, or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado.

If the arbitration provision in this section is found unenforceable or to not apply for a given dispute, then the proceeding must be brought exclusively in the state courts of competent jurisdiction located in Denver, Colorado, or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, as appropriate, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of each of these courts for the purpose of litigating such claims or disputes, and you still waive your right to a jury trial and waive any right to initiate or proceed in a class or collective action. You also remain bound by any and all limitations on liability and damages included in these Terms of Use. This arbitration agreement and class action waiver shall survive termination of your use of the Website or termination of our dealings.

AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY ENFORCE IT IN FULL WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS BETWEEN THEM ON THE ONE HAND AND YOU ON THE OTHER ARISING FROM OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THESE TERMS, OUR DEALINGS WITH YOU, OR THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. INTENDED BENEFICIARIES ARE OUR AGENTS, PRINCIPALS, REPRESENTATIVES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, SHAREHOLDERS, GOVERNORS, MANAGERS, AND MEMBERS. INTENDED BENEFICIARIES ALSO ARE OUR PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PARTNERS, LICENSEES, ATTORNEYS, PREDECESSORS, SUCCESSORS, JOINT VENTURERS, CONTRACTORS, ASSIGNS, DESIGNEES, SERVICERS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS. A SERVICE PROVIDER IS ANY THIRD-PARTY PROVIDING US OR ANY INTENDED BENEFICIARY ANY GOODS OR SERVICES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OUR DEALINGS WITH YOU OR THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. INTENDED BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE PERSONS LISTED IN THIS PARAGRAPH. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY BE ENFORCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PERSON OR ENTITY PURPORTING TO BRING CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF, INCLUDING ANY AGENT, REPRESENTATIVE, GUARDIAN, OR TRUSTEE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY ALSO BE ENFORCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PERSON OR ENTITY WHO ACQUIRES ANY RIGHT OR INTEREST THAT, BUT FOR THE TRANSFER OF THE RIGHT OR INTEREST, WOULD HAVE BELONGED TO US OR AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. YOU ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU SHALL BE ESTOPPED FROM DENYING AN OBLIGATION TO ARBITRATE COVERED DISPUTES WITH AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY.

GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

Except as otherwise provided in the section below entitled “Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver,” all matters relating to the Website and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Colorado without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Colorado or any other jurisdiction).

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. YOU AGREE THAT BY USING THE WEBSITE, OR BY OTHERWISE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE COMPANY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; YOU AND WE AGREE THAT CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, OR OTHER COMBINED PROCEEDINGS ARE NOT PERMITTED.

You and the Company agree that any and all claims and disputes arising from or relating in any way to the subject matter of these Terms of Use, your use of the Website, or your and the Company’s dealings with one another (including, but not limited to, your receipt of marketing telephone calls, text messages, emails, or other communications from or on behalf of the Company) shall be finally settled and resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION as described in this section. You and we also agree that the arbitration provision and class action waiver apply to claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct, and also apply to claims made independently or with other claims.

This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be interpreted broadly. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT “CLAIMS” AND “DISPUTES” SUBJECT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION THEREFORE ARE TO BE GIVEN THE BROADEST POSSIBLE MEANING AND INCLUDE CLAIMS OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, INITIAL CLAIMS, COUNTERCLAIMS, CROSS-CLAIMS, AND THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, AND CLAIMS BASED ON ANY FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL CONSTITUTION, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, WARRANTY, COMMON LAW RULE (INCLUDING RULES RELATING TO CONTRACTS, TORTS, NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, OR ANY OTHER INTENTIONAL WRONGS), AND EQUITY. THEY INCLUDE CLAIMS AND DISPUTES THAT SEEK RELIEF OF ANY TYPE—INCLUDING ACTUAL, STATUTORY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES AND/OR INJUNCTIVE, DECLARATORY, OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Generally, arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court, and review by a court is limited. Neither you nor the Company will be able to have a court or jury trial or participate in a class action or class arbitration. You and the Company each understand and agree that by agreeing to resolve any dispute through individual arbitration, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate or combine the claims or arbitrations of multiple parties.

In the event of a dispute, and before initiating an arbitration proceeding under this section, you and the Company agree that the party alleging a dispute must send to the other party a notice of dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, a brief summary the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any notice of dispute to [email protected] and/or via mail to Kredo Inc., 9540 Maroon Circle, Suite 310, Englewood, Colorado 80112, Attention: Legal. We will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information we have for you. You and the Company agree to attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the notice of dispute is sent. After that sixty (60) day period and not before, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding in accordance with this section.

If you and the Company do not resolve a dispute by informal negotiation, the dispute shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration will be governed by the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), as modified by this section. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS using one arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving consumer contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the JAMS Rules. If JAMS is unable or unwilling to arbitrate a dispute, then the dispute may be referred to any other arbitration organization or arbitrator that you and the Company both agree upon in writing or that is appointed pursuant to section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

For any claim where the total amount of the award sought is $10,000 or less, the arbitrator, you, and the Company must abide by the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted solely based on telephone or online remote appearances and/or written submissions (or some combination thereof); and (b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. If the claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules and the hearing (if any) will be conducted under the JAMS Rules in person (at a mutually agreeable location) or virtually by conference call, videoconference, or using other communications technology with participants in one or more geographical places, or in a combined form. The arbitrator’s ruling is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. The JAMS Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267.

This arbitration agreement involves interstate commerce and, therefore, shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (“FAA”), and not by state law. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE AUTHORIZED TO AWARD ALL REMEDIES AVAILABLE IN AN INDIVIDUAL LAWSUIT UNDER APPLICABLE SUBSTANTIVE LAW, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COMPENSATORY, STATUTORY, AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES, AS WELL AS DECLARATORY, INJUNCTIVE, AND OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF—INCLUDING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS.

In accordance with the JAMS Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or the Company) is responsible for paying the filing fee. However, if the arbitrator issues you an award of damages and: (a) that award is greater than the amount of our last written settlement offer; or (b) if we did not make a settlement offer, then in addition to paying for any JAMS Case Management Fees and all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services, we will reimburse you for the filing fees you incurred. Further, if you demonstrate that paying the arbitrator’s costs and fees would be prohibitively expensive for you, the Company shall pay those costs and fees regardless of whether you prevail in the arbitration—unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.

You and the Company empower the arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms of Use or the arbitration provision—including the formation of the Agreement, the arbitrability of any dispute, and any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use are void or voidable (such as, but not limited to, whether the arbitration provision is unconscionable).

Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary, you and we agree that if the class action waiver above is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration and any proceeding shall be brought and proceed exclusively in the state courts of competent jurisdiction located in Denver, Colorado, or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado.

If the arbitration provision in this section is found unenforceable or to not apply for a given dispute, then the proceeding must be brought exclusively in the state courts of competent jurisdiction located in Denver, Colorado, or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, as appropriate, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of each of these courts for the purpose of litigating such claims or disputes, and you still waive your right to a jury trial and waive any right to initiate or proceed in a class or collective action. You also remain bound by any and all limitations on liability and damages included in these Terms of Use. This arbitration agreement and class action waiver shall survive termination of your use of the Website or termination of our dealings.

AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY ENFORCE IT IN FULL WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS BETWEEN THEM ON THE ONE HAND AND YOU ON THE OTHER ARISING FROM OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THESE TERMS, OUR DEALINGS WITH YOU, OR THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. INTENDED BENEFICIARIES ARE OUR AGENTS, PRINCIPALS, REPRESENTATIVES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, SHAREHOLDERS, GOVERNORS, MANAGERS, AND MEMBERS.

THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY BE ENFORCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PERSON OR ENTITY PURPORTING TO BRING CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF, INCLUDING ANY AGENT, REPRESENTATIVE, GUARDIAN, OR TRUSTEE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION MAY ALSO BE ENFORCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PERSON OR ENTITY WHO ACQUIRES ANY RIGHT OR INTEREST THAT, BUT FOR THE TRANSFER OF THE RIGHT OR INTEREST, WOULD HAVE BELONGED TO US OR AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. YOU ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU SHALL BE ESTOPPED FROM DENYING AN OBLIGATION TO ARBITRATE COVERED DISPUTES WITH AN INTENDED BENEFICIARY.
