Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing between the Parties, this Agreement will be incorporated by reference into and govern the Order Form. The Parties hereby incorporate by reference all schedules, exhibits and addenda attached to or otherwise referenced in this Agreement into this Agreement, including the Product-Specific Terms and the Beta and Trial Terms as made available to Customer by Haus (including via email or in the Customer’s account), and in each case as may be amended and modified from time to time by Haus in accordance with Section 14.12. The access to and use of certain Offerings are subject to additional terms set forth in the Product-Specific Terms, Beta and Trial Terms, the Documentation or Policies.

3. ACCOUNT

3.1. Customer Accounts. Customer is responsible for anyone who purchases, accesses or uses Offerings through Customer or Customer’s account credentials (including all Authorized Users), and any act or omission of any such person that is not in compliance with this Agreement will constitute an act or omission by Customer. Customer is responsible for safeguarding its account credentials and will not disclose its account credentials to any third party. Customer will notify Haus promptly of any actual or suspected unauthorized access to or use of its account or the accounts of any Authorized Users. If Customer’s account is canceled, terminated or suspended, Customer and, if applicable, any Authorized Users, will lose the ability to access and use such account and any Customer Data that Customer has uploaded or stored using any Offerings. Haus may immediately delete such Customer Data at the time of cancellation, termination or suspension of Customer’s account and Haus will not be liable to Customer or any third party in connection with such deletion of Customer Data or Customer’s loss of access and use of such account.

3.2. Customer Account Information.  Any account information Customer provides to Haus must be materially accurate, current and complete, and Customer will update such information to keep it materially accurate, current and complete. Haus reserves the right to suspend or terminate Customer’s account and access to and use of the Offerings if any account information Customer provides to Haus proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete.

5.2. Customer Data.  In order for Customer to access and use certain Offerings, or for Haus to provide Customer with certain services, Customer may provide Customer Data to Haus.  When Customer provides or makes accessible Customer Data to Haus, Customer hereby grants a non-exclusive, transferable (in accordance with Section 14.7), worldwide, royalty-free and fully paid-up right and license to Haus and its designees to use, reproduce, modify, perform and display, and distribute and make available the anonymized and aggregated results of any analysis of Customer Data solely in order to provide, develop, support and improve the Offerings and other Haus services (including, for avoidance of doubt, for use by other customers). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Haus sell any Customer Data to third parties or otherwise make any deanonymized or unaggregated Customer Data available to any third-parties other than as necessary in order to render the services contemplated under this Agreement. Customer (a) is responsible for ensuring that its provision of Customer Data to Haus for its use in connection with any Offering will comply with all Applicable Laws, including Applicable Data Protection Laws, and this Agreement, and (b) represents and warrants that Haus’ receipt or use of Customer Data pursuant to this Agreement will not infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property or proprietary rights of any Person (including privacy or publicity rights) or violate any Applicable Laws, including Applicable Data Protection Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer represents and warrants that, with respect to Customer Data that constitutes Personal Information, Customer will provide any legally provided notices to and obtain any required consent from any individual whose Personal Information Customer makes available to Haus or that Haus collects or otherwise processes on behalf of Customer pursuant to this Agreement.

Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, all payments under this Agreement will be made in U.S. Dollars. Customer is responsible for any fees associated with payment of Fees, including transaction fees and bank fees.

6.2. Taxes.  Payments made under this Agreement will be paid in full without deduction or set-off for any withholding taxes, levies, imports, duties, charges and fees imposed by any governmental taxing authority except as required by law. If Customer is required to make any such deduction, then Customer will pay to Haus such additional amounts as are necessary to ensure Haus’ receipt of the full amount that Haus would have received but for the deduction. Customer will be responsible for, and will pay promptly, all taxes, levies, imports, duties, charges and fees of any kind (including sales, use and withholding taxes) associated with any purchase or Customer’s receipt or use of the Offerings, except for taxes based on Haus’ net income. In the event that Haus is required to collect any tax for which Customer is responsible, Customer will pay such tax directly to Haus. Haus reserves the right to collect any applicable sales, use or value added tax.

6.3. Billing. Customer may be asked to provide Haus customary billing information, such as name, company name, billing address and credit card information, either to Haus or its third party payment processor. When Customer provides billing information to Haus or its third party payment processor, Customer (a) represents and warrants that Customer is authorized to provide and use such billing information, and (b) authorizes Haus or its third party payment processor to charge its credit card or otherwise process Customer’s payment for any Offerings or other fees incurred by Customer. If Customer is directed to Haus’ third party payment processor, Customer may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s privacy policy. Customer will review such third party’s terms and conditions and privacy policy before using such services.

6.4. Late Payments.  If Customer fails to timely pay any Fees in accordance with Section 6.1, then Haus may (a) suspend Customer’s access to or use of any Offerings until all Fees are paid by Customer upon seven (7) days’ written notice of pending suspension, and (b) charge Customer interest on the overdue amount at the monthly rate of 1.5% or the maximum interest rate permitted by law, whichever is less, for each calendar month that the payment is overdue.

6.5. Subscription Term.  The length of Customer’s subscription to each Offering will be indicated in the Order Form. At the end of the subscription term for an Offering, the subscription will automatically renew at the then-current price and terms for the Offering unless otherwise indicated in the Order Form. Haus will provide Customer with thirty (30) days advance written notice of any proposed increase in subscription price in accordance with Section 14.12. If Customer does not cancel a subscription before the end of the current subscription term, Customer’s subscription will automatically renew for the subscription term indicated in the Order Form. Haus may send Customer a reminder notice prior to the renewal date. Unless otherwise expressly provided for under this Agreement, all subscription fees are nonrefundable (except as required by law). Any statutory rights Customer may have under applicable law to cancel its subscription at an earlier time during the renewal term and to request a refund of the subscription fees for the unused part of the renewal period will remain unaffected by this provision.

Injunctive Relief.  Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Receiving Party may have under this Agreement or at law, the Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that, due to the nature of the Confidential Information, any threatened or actual breach of its confidentiality obligations would result in irreparable and continuing damage to the Disclosing Party for which there would be no adequate remedy in damages and accordingly the Disclosing Party will be authorized and entitle to injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any damages or other remedy to which it may be entitled.

11.4. Other Agreements.  This Section 11 will not cancel, terminate, or modify any nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements previously entered into by the Parties. The use and disclosure of Confidential Information shared in connection with this Agreement will be governed by the confidentiality terms of this Agreement and nothing in the previously entered agreements will limit the license or other rights granted to either Party in connection with access or use of the Offerings and related data.

12.1. Disclaimers.  THE OFFERINGS ARE PROVIDED BY HAUS ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. OTHER THAN ANY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,  HAUS AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, LICENSORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDING THE OFFERINGS, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, INTERFERENCE WITH QUIET ENJOYMENT, IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, AND ANY UNDERTAKINGS. HAUS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OFFERINGS OR ACCESS TO OR USE THEREOF WILL OPERATE UNINTERRUPTED OR WITHOUT DELAY OR BE ERROR FREE OR FREE FROM CORRUPTION, ATTACK, VIRUSES, INTERFERENCE OR OTHER SECURITY INTRUSION, OR THAT ALL DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. HAUS MAKES NO WARRANTY CONCERNING ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, INTEGRITY, TIMELINESS OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY RESULTS, DATA OR INFORMATION UTILIZED, STORED OR TRANSMITTED AS PART OF THE OFFERINGS, OR OBTAINED OR DERIVED THROUGH THE ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE OFFERINGS. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OFFERINGS ARE NOT INTENDED OR SUITABLE FOR USE IN SITUATIONS OR ENVIRONMENTS WHERE THE FAILURE OR TIME DELAYS OF, OR ERRORS OR INACCURACIES IN SUCH RESULTS, DATA OR INFORMATION COULD LEAD TO INJURY, ILLNESS, DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE. HAUS MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT THE OFFERINGS WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ACCESS TO OFFERINGS MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS, DELAYS AND OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. HAUS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DELAYS, DELIVERY FAILURES OR DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM SUCH PROBLEMS. UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED EXPRESSLY IN WRITING, HAUS WILL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO SUPPORT, OR BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR, ANY VERSION OF THE OFFERINGS OTHER THAN THE CURRENT VERSION AND IMMEDIATELY PRIOR RELEASED VERSION OF THE OFFERINGS. CUSTOMER WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO ITS DEVICES, COMPUTERS OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM ITS ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE OFFERINGS.

12.2 Limitations of Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL HAUS OR ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, LICENSORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE ANY LIABILITY (DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY) FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE; BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR LOSS OF USE; LOSS OF DATA; COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES OR OTHER COVER; OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM FORCE MAJEURE. HAUS’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OFFERING WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY CUSTOMER TO HAUS FOR THE RELEVANT OFFERING UNDER THE ORDER FORM IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS BEFORE THE DISPUTE, AND (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00). THE LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW TO ANY DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY), INDEMNIFICATION, RECOURSE, STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF HAUS OR ITS AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, LICENSORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE LIABILITY OR THE LIABILITY IS OTHERWISE FORESEEABLE, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LIMITED REMEDIES IN THIS AGREEMENT FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT PURPORTS TO RESTRICT OR EXCLUDE HAUS’ LIABILITY FOR (A) DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY HAUS’ WILLFUL INTENT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR (B) CUSTOMER’S DAMAGES OR LOSSES CAUSED BY HAUS’ FRAUD.

12.3. Indemnification.  Customer will, at Customer’s expense and at Haus’ option, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Haus and its Affiliates, partners, licensors and service providers and each of their officers, employees, independent contractors and agents (collectively, the “Haus Indemnified Parties”) against any claim, suit or proceeding (“Claim”) arising out of or relating to: (a) Customer’s or any of its Authorized Users’ access to or use of Offerings; (b) Customer’s breach (or any acts or omissions that, if true, would be a breach) of this Agreement; and (c) Customer’s breach or alleged breach of any Applicable Law. Customer may not enter into a settlement under this Section 12.3 without Haus’ prior written approval. Haus will provide Customer (i) prompt written notice of, and (ii) all information and assistance reasonably requested by Customer in connection with the defense or settlement of any such Claim.

13. Term; Termination; Suspension

13.1 Term.  The term of this Agreement will remain in effect until expiration or termination in accordance with these Terms (the “Term”). This Agreement will remain in effect during the term set forth in the Order Form (and for any subsequent renewals thereof in accordance with these Terms). For clarity, the term of the Order Form will be set forth in the Order Form.

13.2. Termination.  

13.2.1. For Breach.  Either Party may terminate this Agreement and the Order Form if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice of the breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Haus may (a) terminate this Agreement and the Order Form if Customer is in material breach of its obligation to pay Fees and Customer fails to cure such breach within seven (7) days after written notice of the breach, and (b) terminate immediately the Order Form upon written notice to Customer if Haus reasonably believes Customer is failing to comply with its obligations under Section 7.2.

13.2.2. For Insolvency or Change of Control.  Either Party may terminate this Agreement and the Order Form upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party: (a) becomes subject to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings; (b) becomes insolvent, makes an arrangement with or affecting its creditors (including an assignment for the benefit of a creditor) to commence a process of liquidation; (c) has a receiver or trustee appointed; (d) ceases or threatens to cease into carry on business; or (e) claims the benefit of any statutory moratorium. Haus may terminate this Agreement in connection with the sale of its business, whether by a sale of assets, sale of stock, reorganization, merger or otherwise.

13.2.3. Effect of Termination or Expiration.  Except as may be expressly provided in the Order Form, upon expiration or termination the Order Form and/or this Agreement, Customer’s rights with respect to the applicable Offerings will end. Except as may be expressly provided in the Order Form, immediately upon expiration or termination of the Order Form or this Agreement, Customer will: (a) stop all access to and use of the applicable Offerings; and (b) uninstall and destroy any and all copies of any Documentation, tools, materials, services or information made available by Haus in connection with or as part of the applicable Offerings. At Haus’ request, Customer will certify in writing to Haus its compliance with the provisions of this Section 13.2.4. Customer will remain liable for all fees and charges for the Offerings.

13.2.4. Survival.  The following sections of this Agreement, and any other sections and provisions of this Agreement and the Order Form which by their nature must survive for interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, will survive expiration or termination for any reason: Section 1 (Definitions), Section 7.2 (License Restrictions), Section 8.4 (License to Deliverables), Section 8.5 (Ownership of Work Product), Section 10 (Ownership), Section 11 (Confidentiality), Section 12 (Disclaimers; Limitations of Liability; Indemnification), Section 13.2.4 (Effect of Termination or Expiration), Section 13.2.5 (Survival) and Section 14 (General).

13.3. Suspension.  

13.3.1. Suspension of an Offering.  Haus may suspend Customer’s right to access or use any portion or all of any Offering immediately upon notice to Customer if Haus determines, in its sole discretion, to suspend provision of such Offering on a general and temporary basis (including for scheduled maintenance). Haus will use reasonable efforts to notify Customer in advance of any such suspension.

13.3.2. Suspension for Cause.  In addition to and without limiting Haus’ suspension rights under Section 3.2 and Section 6.3, Haus may suspend Customer’s right to access or use any portion or all of any Offering if Haus believes in good faith that Customer’s conduct or failure to act: (a) may pose a security risk or otherwise adversely impact Offerings, systems or other users; (b) constitutes or enables tampering with, removing, disabling or otherwise limiting the effectiveness of any technical protections; (c) may subject Haus or its Affiliates, licensors and service providers to liability; (d) constitutes a breach of Section 7.2; or (e) Customer is more than thirty (30) days overdue on any payment obligation under this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3. In the event of any such suspension, Haus will provide promptly Customer with notice of the suspension and a reasonably detailed explanation of the reason for such suspension. Haus will use commercially reasonable efforts to re-establish Customer’s access to such Offering after Haus determines, in its sole discretion, that the cause of the suspension has been resolved to Haus’ satisfaction. If Customer fails to cure and resolve the cause of the suspension, then notwithstanding any cure periods set forth in this Agreement or other termination rights in this Agreement, Haus may, but is not required to, terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Customer. Any suspension under this Section will not excuse Customer’s payment obligations under this Agreement during the period of such suspension.

14. General

14.1. Performance by Haus.  Haus will have the right to use third party service providers, subcontractors and Affiliates to perform any of its obligations and exercise any of its rights under this Agreement. In such event, Haus will remain responsible for performance of such obligations and exercise of rights.

14.2. Force Majeure.  Neither Party will be liable for any failure or delay in performance under this Agreement (other than for delay in the payment of Fees) to the extent due to unforeseen circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control and occurring without its fault and negligence, including acts of God, earthquake, fire, health emergency, flood, sanctions, embargoes, trade controls, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, pandemic, civil unrest, failure, unavailability or delay of service providers or licensors, riots, terrorist or other malicious or criminal acts, war, failure or interruption of the internet or third party internet connections or infrastructure, power failures, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, acts of civil and military authorities, severe weather and other similar events beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party (“Force Majeure”). The affected Party will give the other Party prompt written notice (when possible) of the failure to perform and use its reasonable efforts to limit the resulting delay in its performance. The dates by which any performance of obligations is scheduled to be met will be extended for a period of time equal to the time lost due to any delays so caused. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer will not be released from its payment obligations under this Agreement as a result of a Force Majeure event.

14.3. Audit.  During the Term and for one (1) year thereafter, Haus or Haus’ designated agent may, upon reasonable notice to Customer, audit Customer’s books, records and facilities to verify the installation of, access to, and use of any Offerings by Customer and its Authorized Users and Customer’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Applicable Law. Customer may not take any steps to avoid or defeat the purpose of any such verification measures and will cooperate with Haus so as to facilitate Haus’ audit. If any audit reveals an underpayment by Customer, Haus may invoice Customer for such underpayment in accordance with Haus’ standard policies. Customer will pay such invoice in accordance with the payment terms of this Agreement. Haus will pay for any audits, unless an audit reveals that Customer has underpaid by more than five percent (5%) of the fees in any three (3)-month period, in which case Customer will reimburse Haus for its reasonable audit costs. Haus reserves the right to seek any other remedies available at law or in equity.

14.4. Trade Control Laws. Each Party will comply with all applicable sanctions, export control, and similar laws and regulations of the United States and other countries and regions to the extent not inconsistent with the laws and regulations of the United States.  

14.5. Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption.  Customer represents and warrants that it complies with all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to antibribery or anticorruption, including those prohibiting the bribery of government officials, and will remain in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations while providing, accessing and using the Offerings; that it will not authorize, offer or make payments directly or indirectly to any government official in violation of applicable laws, rules and regulations; and that no part of any payments received by it (whether as compensation or otherwise) from any third party will be used for any purpose that constitutes a violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

14.6. Government Rights.  To the extent Customer or any of Customer’s Authorized Users are government entities, the following terms apply: the Offerings and all associated Documentation are “commercial computer software” and related commercial “computer software documentation” as those terms are defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) 2.101 and U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) FAR Supplement (“DFARS”) 252.227-7014(a) or similar provisions effective in the applicable jurisdiction, and thus are subject to the policies and requirements of FAR 12.212 or, for DoD, DFARS 227.7202, or similar applicable policies or requirements. All government entities will acquire the Offering and all associated Documentation or other related technical data subject to this Agreement as required in FAR 12.212 (Computer Software) or DFARS 227.7202 and their respective successors, as applicable, except to the limited extent a government end user is prohibited by the laws of its jurisdiction from accepting such terms. If and to the extent any provision of this Agreement is so prohibited, then such provisions will be deemed modified only to the extent reasonably necessary to conform to applicable law, but to give maximum effect to this Agreement as written. This Section 14.6 is in lieu of, and supersedes, any other FAR, DFARS, or other clause or provision that addresses government rights in computer software or technical data.

14.7. Assignment.  Customer may not, directly or indirectly, assign or transfer this Agreement, or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Haus, and any attempt to do so in breach of the foregoing will be null and void. Haus may assign this Agreement and delegate its obligations under this Agreement at any time and without notice. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

14.8. Notice.  

14.8.1. To Haus.  Customer will send any notices to Haus via email to zach@haus.io or by postal mail or delivery service to Haus, Attention: 2261 Market Street #5006, San Francisco CA 94114. Such notices will be effective when received by Haus.

14.8.2. To Customer.  Haus will deliver all notices, approvals or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement: (a) via e-mail to the email address provided in Customer’s account; or (b) in any other manner deemed reasonable by Haus that involves specific notification to Customer including sent by postal mail or delivery service to Customer’s address on file or Customer’s Agent of Service of Civil Process.  

 

14.9. Publicity.  Neither Party will make any public announcement or comment or issue any press release relating to this Agreement or its subject matter without the prior written approval of the other Party except as required by law or by any legal or regulatory authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Haus and its designees may identify Customer as a customer of Haus and use Customer’s name and logo for the purpose of advertising or publicizing the Offerings (but not to brand the Offerings).

14.10. Independent Contractors.  Haus and Customer are independent contractors, and neither Party, nor any of their respective Affiliates, is an agent, partner or joint-venturer of the other Party for any purpose or has the authority to bind the other Party.

14.11. Entire Agreement; No Waiver.  This Agreement, including all schedules, exhibits and addenda attached to or otherwise referenced in this Agreement, including the Product-Specific Terms, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes any previous agreement or understanding between the Parties in relation to such subject matter. Failure to enforce or exercise any provision of this Agreement is not a waiver of such provision unless such waiver is specified in writing and signed by the party against which the waiver is asserted.

14.12. Modification. No modification or amendment to this Agreement will be valid unless it is in writing and signed by or on behalf of each of the Parties to this Agreement. No oral agreement, course of dealing, or trade usage will be deemed to modify this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent such modifications do not materially expand Customer’s obligations, increase Customer’s Fees, or limit Customer’s rights under the Agreement, Haus may make reasonable modifications to this Agreement and will use reasonable efforts to provide Customer with reasonable advance written notice of such modifications.

14.13. Severability; Interpretation.  If and to the extent any portion of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any invalid or unenforceable portions will be interpreted to effect the intent of the original portion. If such construction is not possible, the invalid or unenforceable portion will be severed from this Agreement, but the rest of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any reference in this Agreement to “days” are to calendar days unless otherwise specified. The words “including” and “for example” or “e.g.,” and words of similar import, are not limiting or exclusive and will be deemed followed by “without limitation,” whether or not such language is included. Section and other headings are for ease of reference only and are not to be used to interpret the meaning of any provision. Any rights and remedies provided for in these Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available under applicable law.

14.14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement does not create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person that is not a party to this Agreement except for Haus’ Affiliates, licensors and service providers as set forth in the Product-Specific Terms and as applicable.

14.15. Counterparts; Execution.  This Order Form may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the Parties to it on separate counterparts, each of which will be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. The Agreement is not effective until each Party has executed at least one counterpart of the Order Form. Signatures to the Order Form may be made and delivered electronically.

14.16. Dispute Resolution.  In the event of a claim, dispute or controversy (each, a “Dispute”) arising from or in connection with this Agreement, prior to the commencement of any arbitration proceedings as provided in Section 14.17, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute by following the escalation path below. A Party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the Dispute to the other Party. Such notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the Dispute in detail; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought. The Parties will use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute directly, but if the Parties do not reach an agreement to do so within sixty (60) days after the notice is received, either Party may commence an arbitration proceeding as provided in Section 14.17.

14.17. Arbitration. This Agreement is governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without reference to conflict of laws principles. Subject to Section 14.16, any Dispute arising from or in connection with this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration in the State of Delaware in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1 et seq.), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

14.18. Class Action Waiver. Any arbitration will be conducted in the Parties’ individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action. The Parties each expressly waive the right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis either in arbitration or in court. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR IN ANY COURT. FURTHER, UNLESS BOTH CUSTOMER AND HAUS AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, AN ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTICIPATING PUBLIC AGENCY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, CUSTOMER AND HAUS WILL RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE ON AN INDIVIDUAL, NON-REPRESENTATIVE, NON-CLASS BASIS IN ARBITRATION, BUT IF FOR ANY REASON SUCH DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT, CUSTOMER AND HAUS WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE THE DISPUTE PROCEED AS A CLASS ACTION OR IN ANY REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY WHATSOEVER. IF THE DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT, CUSTOMER AND HAUS WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. If there is a determination that any term in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason as to any claim, then the arbitration provision set forth above will be inapplicable as to that claim, and that claim will instead proceed through litigation in court rather than by arbitration, but only after the conclusion of the arbitration of any claim or dispute subject to the Parties’ arbitration agreement.
