If, after the Effective Date but before we fund the Advance under this Agreement, you make payments on Future Receivables that we purchased from you under the Existing Terminating Revenue Share Agreement and that remained undelivered as of the Effective Date, those payments will be deemed a partial payment of the Specified Amount under this Agreement.

 

4.3. Discount Credits

 

Provided that no Event of Default has ever occurred and that you are in compliance with this Agreement at all times, we will deduct the Discount Credit from the Specified Amount you are required to deliver to us.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that any Discount Credit that is applied under this Agreement or was applied under any Existing Terminating Revenue Share Agreement with respect to any transaction that did not settle or was otherwise refunded will be cancelled from the total Discount Credits applied hereunder.

4.5. Deposit of Future Receivables

 

You agree that all Future Receivables generated by your business will be deposited in the bank account we have on file for you (“Company Bank Account”), to which an irrevocable ACH authorization agreement or direct or pre-authorized debit agreement, as applicable (any such agreement, the “Authorization Agreement”), relates. You agree to provide us with the Authorization Agreement on or immediately prior to the Closing Date. You understand that we would not pay you the Advance without you providing the Authorization Agreement.

In your request you will provide your legal business name, the Advance identification number related to the Error Transaction, the date of the Error Transaction, the excess amount you believe was delivered in the Error Transaction and why you believe it to be an Error Transaction (along with all supporting documents, materials and information). If, after reviewing the Error Transaction, we determine, in good faith based on our records, that you delivered an excess amount in the Error Transaction, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred or continuing, we will return such excess amount delivered to us in the Error Transaction within thirty (30) business days after the date we completed our review of the Error Transaction and communicated our findings to you. We may also collect from you any shortfall in all deliveries, including by debiting the Company Bank Account. Any review or other reconciliations we perform will not relieve you or otherwise delay you from delivering the full Specified Amount and any other amounts owed to us.

 

4.7. Change in Future Receivables

 

If your generation of Future Receivables changes or is expected to change significantly, you may request a change in the Specified Percentage on a go-forward basis. You will provide us any documents, materials or information we ask for to support your request, including your bank statements. We may approve or deny your request in our sole and absolute discretion. We will notify you if changes will be made, and any changes will be deemed the new Specified Percentage until a subsequent change by us.

 

You agree to diligently engage in continuous activity that generates Future Receivables to be delivered in accordance with this Section 4.7, starting no later than five (5) business days from the date that you receive the Advance. If you generate less Future Receivables than we anticipated or projected because your business has slowed down, or if your business ceases operations in the ordinary course of business, and if you have not in any way otherwise breached this Agreement, you will deliver less than the Specified Amount and not be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement.

 

4.8. Use of Advance

 

You agree that the proceeds of the Advance will be used solely for, and the Approved Card and the Invoice Payment Dashboard may permit spending for, only the purposes permitted in Section 7.7. You acknowledge and agree that we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, reject any Approved Card or Invoice Payment Dashboard transaction, including those which do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement, our internal policies, or applicable laws and regulations. You acknowledge and agree that the Clear Bank Account, the Approved Card and the Invoice Payment Dashboard are subject to rules and restrictions imposed by us from time to time, including with respect to access and spending rights. For your convenience, and without prejudicing any of our rights to receive the Specified Percentage of Future Receivables and the Specified Amount of Future Receivables, you may choose not to spend the entire amount of the Advance on a single day.

 

You may from time to time direct us to pay in whole or in part the proceeds of the Advance to eligible third parties you designate on the Invoice Payment Dashboard (such direction, the “Directed Payment Instruction”). If the balance of your unused and available Advance is less than the amount of the Directed Payment Instruction, you may not use the Invoice Payment Dashboard to facilitate payment of the Directed Payment Instruction. You agree to assume sole and absolute responsibility for any Directed Payment Instruction and such instructions may be relied upon by us, whether or not an error could be detected by us. You do not have the right to cancel or amend any Directed Payment Instruction once given to us. You acknowledge and agree that we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, reject any Directed Payment Instruction, including those which do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement, our internal policies, or applicable laws and regulations.

All transactions processed on or through the Approved Card and the Invoice Payment Dashboard (together, the “Approved Payment Methods”) will be deemed approved by and made by you, including, regardless of whether such charges were authorized or made by you, your affiliates or your employees. If you believe that the Approved Card has been lost or stolen, or the Approved Card number (and, if applicable, cvc/cvv/cv2, password or pin), your Invoice Payment Dashboard log-in and password or a device that you use to access the Approved Payment Methods has been lost or stolen, or you suspect that someone is using your Approved Payment Methods without your permission, or that a transaction that you have not affirmatively authorized (without prejudice to the first sentence herein) has occurred, you must notify us immediately at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. You are responsible for all such transactions and losses. You agree and understand that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the Approved Card number (and, if applicable, cvc/cvv/cv2, password or pin) and your Invoice Payment Dashboard log-in and password. You must cooperate fully in any investigation by us, any bank, service provider and the authorities. We can, and you hereby authorize us to, at any time, without prejudicing our rights in this Agreement, block use of the Approved Card and the Invoice Payment Dashboard, dispute any charges and terminate and prevent use of the Approved Card and the Invoice Payment Dashboard (a) if we suspect unauthorized or fraudulent use, (b) during the course of any claim of fraud, (c) if we believe unusual or suspicious transactions are occurring, including if we believe a violation of Section 7.7 may occur, or (d) upon a default or an Event of Default. You understand, acknowledge and agree that we will not be responsible or liable in any way should any Approved Card or Invoice Payment Dashboard transaction not be approved or accepted, whether by us or a third party, even if you have sufficient funds available.

 

10.6. Set-Off

 

We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, recoup, set off or otherwise credit against the Advance or other amounts payable by us or our affiliates to you all present and future amounts owed by you to us or our affiliates arising from this Agreement or any other transaction with you or any of your affiliates whether or not related to this Agreement.

 

10.7. Additional Services

 

From time to time we may make available to you additional services and benefits, such as a rewards program or other loyalty-based offer. The additional services and benefits will be subject to separate terms and conditions. By accessing, accepting or using the additional services and benefits, you agree to the separate terms and conditions that apply to them. The additional services and benefits may be changed or cancelled at any time for any reason without notice to you. You understand and acknowledge that certain additional services and benefits may be provided by third parties. We are not responsible or liable in any way for any additional services or benefits that we do not directly provide to you. If you have any dispute regarding such additional services or benefits, you understand that you must deal directly with the third-party provider of such additional service or benefit. You understand that we may receive compensation from the third-party provider as a result of your access, acceptance or use of such additional services and benefits, and our compensation will vary by third party provider and the additional service or benefit.

 

11. MISCELLANEOUS

 

11.1. Modifications; Amendments; Construction; and Exchange Rate

 

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing and duly signed by us and you. The headings of the sections and subsections are inserted for convenience only and under no circumstances will they affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “include”, “includes,” and “including” mean without limitation by reason of enumeration.

 

If funds are received, distributed, or spent in a currency other than the “Currency”, any requisite currency translation will be based on the rate of exchange between the applicable currency and the “Currency” as determined by us.

 

 

11.2. Notices

 

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any notice given under this Agreement must be in writing but may be provided to you electronically. Notices will be deemed given when properly addressed and deposited in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, First Class mail; delivered in person; or sent by registered mail; by certified mail; by nationally recognized overnight courier; by electronic mail to you; posted on our website or in your customer account with us; or otherwise made available to you. Notice to you will be sent to your last known address in our records. Notice to us may be sent to Clear Finance Technology Corp., ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ #▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ with a copy ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ (which such copy will not constitute notice to us). You agree to notify us immediately if you change your name, your physical or electronic mail address or your other contact information or other information that you provide to us or that is provided to us on your behalf, or if you are the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

 

11.3. Waiver

 

No delay on our part in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of any other right or remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all of our rights and remedies in connection with this Agreement may be exercised at any time by us, are cumulative and not exclusive, and are in addition to any other rights and remedies available to us in law, equity or otherwise.

 

11.4. Binding Effect

 

This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

 

11.5. Governing Law; Forum

 

This Agreement is governed by, and will be construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflict of laws. By executing this Agreement, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in New Castle County, Delaware for any and all disputes asserting a breach of this Agreement. The forum selection provision does not apply to Section 11.11 or to any arbitration proceeding.

 

11.6. Term and Survival

 

This Agreement will continue in full force and effect until all obligations, covenants and agreements in this Agreement have been paid and satisfied in full. Without limiting the previous sentence, (a) Sections 10 and 11 will survive beyond termination or expiration of this Agreement without limitation, and (b) our rights, remedies and benefits under Sections 10 and 11 will survive any sale, assignment or other transfer (whether undertaken in connection with a sale, merger or other change of control transaction, and whether voluntarily or by operation of law) by us of our rights and obligations under this Agreement.

 

 

11.7. Severability

 

Except as provided in Section 11.11, if any provision of this Agreement is to any extent held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be excluded to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and all other provisions will remain in full force and effect. To the fullest extent possible, the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed replaced by a provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable provision. If application of this severability provision should materially and adversely affect the economic substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the party adversely impacted will be entitled to compensation for such adverse impact, provided the reason for the invalidity or unenforceability is not due to the action or inaction of the party seeking compensation.

 

11.8. Entire Agreement

 

This Agreement and the Authorization Agreement contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or in writing, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement.

 

Except with respect to the Existing Terminating Revenue Share Agreement, this Agreement will not by implication or otherwise, limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect our rights and remedies under any revenue share agreement between you and us, royalty agreement between you and us or other agreement between you and us relating to Future Receivables, and will not alter, modify, amend, constitute a waiver of or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained therein, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and will continue to be in full force and effect and will continue to constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Company.

 

11.9. Jury Trial Waiver

 

THE PARTIES WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ON ANY MATTER ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH WAIVER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT EACH MAKES THIS WAIVER KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND WITHOUT DURESS, AND ONLY AFTER BEING PROVIDED WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSIDER THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER WITH THEIR LEGAL REPRESENTATION (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS).

 

 

11.10. Class Action Waiver

 

THE PARTIES WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO ASSERT ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY, ITS PARENT COMPANIES, AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, PREDECESSORS, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR REPRESENTATIVES, AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH WAIVER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW. TO THE EXTENT THIS PROVISION ALLOWS EITHER PARTY TO PROCEED WITH A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER LEGAL FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS OR ANY OF THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PURSUING THE CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION (NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT).

 

11.11. Arbitration

 

If either party requests to arbitrate any Claim (defined below) before an answer or dispositive motion is filed in a proceeding that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the other party agrees to arbitrate such Claim. The party making the request (the “requesting party”) must commence an arbitration proceeding within thirty (30) days of its request with either the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The parties agree that any such arbitration proceeding will take place in Wilmington, Delaware and hereby waive any objection that such venue is an inconvenient forum. The arbitration proceeding will be governed by the rules and procedures for commercial disputes of the arbitration organization to which the Claim is referred. Streamlined arbitration rules and procedures will be used if available. If for any reason the selected arbitration organization cannot, will not, or ceases to, serve as an arbitration administrator, the requesting party may substitute the other organization identified in this paragraph or another widely recognized arbitration organization that uses similar rules or procedures and is mutually acceptable to both parties. In the event of a substitution where the parties cannot agree on an arbitration organization, then either party may ask a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a qualified arbitration organization.

 

For purposes of this arbitration provision, “Claim” means any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) past, present or future. The term “Claim” is to be given the broadest possible meaning and includes any Claim arising from or relating to (a) your offer for sale and our acceptance for purchase of Future Receivables, (b) your or our use or non-use of the Approved Card, the Invoice Payment Dashboard, or any online customer portal we may make available to you through our website, (c) a Directed Payment Instruction, (d) any transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement, (e) provisions of, or change of, or addition of, provisions to this Agreement, (f) collection of your obligations arising from this Agreement, (g) advertisements, promotions or oral or written statements relating to this Agreement or any transactions between you and us pursuant to this Agreement, including any Claim regarding information obtained by us from, or reported by us to, credit reporting agencies or others, (h) disputes between you and us or our parent companies, wholly or majority owned subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, assigns, agents, contractors, employees, officers, directors or representatives arising from any transaction between you and us pursuant to this Agreement, (i) disputes regarding the validity, enforceability or scope of this arbitration provision or this Agreement, or (j) this Agreement.

 

YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE YOU SIGN THIS AGREEMENT BY SENDING NOTICE OF YOUR DECISION TO OPT-OUT, ALONG WITH YOUR NAME, PHONE NUMBER, EMAIL ADDRESS AND MAILING ADDRESS, TO ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ OR CLEAR FINANCE TECHNOLOGY CORP. ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ #▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇.

 

 

IF ARBITRATION IS COMMENCED, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEITHER YOU NOR WE WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO (I) HAVE A COURT OR JURY DECIDE THE CLAIM BEING ARBITRATED, (II) ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY (THAT IS, THE RIGHT TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM THE OTHER PARTY) TO THE SAME EXTENT THAT YOU OR WE COULD IN COURT, (III) PARTICIPATE AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OF CLAIMANTS IN A CLASS ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION, RELATING TO ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION, OR (IV) JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OTHER THAN YOUR OWN OR OUR OWN. OTHER RIGHTS AVAILABLE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. IF A CLAIM IS BROUGHT SEEKING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND A COURT DETERMINES THAT THE RESTRICTIONS IN THIS SECTION AND/OR THE SECTION TITLED “CLASS ACTION WAIVER” ARE UNENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO THAT CLAIM (AND THAT DETERMINATION BECOMES FINAL AFTER ALL APPEALS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED), THE CLAIM FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF WILL BE LITIGATED IN COURT AND ANY INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS SEEKING MONETARY RELIEF WILL BE ARBITRATED. IN SUCH A CASE THE PARTIES WILL REQUEST THAT THE COURT STAY THE CLAIM FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNTIL THE ARBITRATION AWARD PERTAINING TO INDIVIDUAL RELIEF HAS BEEN ENTERED IN COURT. IN NO EVENT WILL A CLAIM FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF BE ARBITRATED.

 

Except as set forth below, the arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding. Only a court may decide the validity of items (iii) and (iv) in the preceding paragraph. If a court finally holds that items (iii) or (iv) are limited, invalid or unenforceable, then this entire arbitration provision will be null and void. You or we can appeal any such holding. If a court holds that any other part of this arbitration provision (other than items (iii) and (iv)) are invalid, then the remaining parts of this arbitration provision will remain in force. An arbitrator will decide all other issues pertaining to arbitrability, validity, interpretation and enforceability of this arbitration provision. The decision of an arbitrator is as enforceable as any court order and may be subject to very limited review by a court. An arbitrator may decide a Claim upon the submission of documents alone. A party may request a telephonic hearing if permitted by applicable rules and each party hereby consents to the other party participating by telephone. The exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Claim between the parties is permitted and encouraged. Either party may submit relevant information, documents or exhibits to the arbitrator for consideration in deciding a Claim. Unless both you and we otherwise agree in writing, any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. However, you and we each retain: (a) the right to bring an individual action in a small claims court having jurisdiction over claims not exceeding US$10,000; and (b) the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.

 

For a copy of relevant rules and procedure, to file a Claim or for other information about JAMS and AAA, write them, visit their website or call them at: (a) for JAMS, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, or 1-800-352-5267; or (b) for AAA, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇.▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇, or ▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇.

 

 

If your claim does not exceed US$10,000, then any arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and we submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing and the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the rules of the selected arbitration organization.

 

If either party fails to submit to arbitration following a proper demand to do so, that party will bear the costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements, incurred by the party compelling arbitration. The party initiating the arbitration will pay the filing fee. You may seek a waiver of the initial filing fee or any other fees incurred in arbitration. IF YOU BELIEVE YOU CANNOT PAY OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PAY THE FILING FEE OR OTHER FEES REQUIRED TO INITIATE ARBITRATION, NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, WE RECOMMEND YOU OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE.

 

Except in the case of an Event of Default provided for in Section 8 (in which case the terms in Section 9 will apply) or the situation in which either party fails to submit to arbitration following a proper demand to do so, each party will pay for its respective legal representation (including attorneys), experts’ and witness fees, regardless of which party prevails in the arbitration. A party may recover any or all expenses from the other party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines. Allocation of fees and costs relating to appeals in arbitration will be handled in the same manner. For an explanation and schedule of the fees that apply to an arbitration proceeding, please contact the organizations at the addresses above. The appropriate fee schedule in effect from time to time is incorporated by reference into this arbitration provision. The cost of arbitration may be higher or lower than the cost of bringing a Claim in court, depending upon the nature of the Claim and how the arbitration proceeds. Having more than one Claim and holding face-to-face hearings can increase the cost of arbitration. Again, neither you nor we will be permitted to arbitrate claims other than an individual basis. An arbitration proceeding can decide only your or our Claims. You cannot join other parties (or consolidate Claims).

 

This arbitration provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., as amended, notwithstanding any other governing law provision in this Agreement. The arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations and will honor claims of privilege recognized at law. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered and enforced, including by garnishment, attachment, foreclosure or other post-judgment remedies, in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, in which case any party can appeal the award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the selected arbitration administrator. The panel will reconsider de novo (that is, without deference to the ruling of the original arbitration) any aspect of the initial award requested by the appealing party.

 

This arbitration provision will continue to govern any Claim that may arise without regard to any termination or expiration of this Agreement. If any portion of this arbitration provision (other than the provisions prohibiting class-wide arbitration, joinder or consolidation) is deemed invalid or unenforceable under the FAA, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of this arbitration provision. If a conflict or inconsistency arises between the rules and procedures of the selected arbitration administrator and this arbitration provision, this arbitration provision will control.

IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY: (A) SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, EXTRAORDINARY, LIQUIDATED, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; (B) LOST PROFITS OR BUSINESS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, TEMPORARY INTERRUPTIONS IN SERVICES (INCLUDING IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPLETE A TRANSACTION), LOSS OF BUSINESS REPUTATION, LATE PENALTIES, LATE PAYMENTS, CANCELLATION OF THIRD PARTY CONTRACTS OR LOSS OF GOODWILL; OR (C) COSTS OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES; IN EACH CASE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY RELATED PRODUCT OR SERVICE. UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATEVER AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO US$500. THE LIABILITIES LIMITED IN THIS PARAGRAPH APPLY: (I) WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM ANY CLAIM BASED UPON BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE; (II) WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE DAMAGES IN QUESTION AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE; AND (III) EVEN IF YOUR REMEDIES FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IF NO FEES HAVE BEEN PAID TO US IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, YOU WILL BE LIMITED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY, UNLESS OTHERWISE PERMITTED BY LAW, AND WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO DAMAGES OF ANY KIND FROM US, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IF APPLICABLE LAW LIMITS THE APPLICATION OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION, OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

We will rely on those acknowledgments in entering into this Agreement. You agree that you will not claim that we have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or we owe a fiduciary or similar duty to you.
