4. SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES

Nexus Portal will provide Subscriber access to a calculator that will estimate the cost of shipping a vehicle in the United States (the "Cost Calculator"). The Cost Calculator amount is an estimate and is not a final quote for services to ship any vehicle.

Nexus Portal also grants Subscriber access to a list of Leads throughout the United States ("Lead List"). If Subscriber finds a Lead to pursue, Subscriber can use the posted contact information for the Lead Contact to directly communicate, through phone or email, an offer of terms for the purchase of the Vehicle. If the offer is accepted by the Lead Contact, a Deal is formed. Subscriber may use Lead Contact information solely to communicate with the Lead Contact for the exclusive purpose of evaluating and negotiating a potential purchase of the specific Vehicle described in the Lead.

Additionally, Subscriber may utilize the Website to monitor Subscriber's account history ("CRM Services"). CRM Services allow Subscriber to search all of Subscriber's previous offers to Lead Contacts. The offer history further provides Subscriber with a record of which of Subscriber's offers turned into Deals. Furthermore, CRM Services can be used by Subscriber to monitor the current status of Subscriber's active Deals.

The Cost Calculator, Lead List, CRM Services, and any other service provided to Subscriber on the Website (collectively, the "Subscription Services") shall constitute the entirety of Nexus Portal's services to Subscriber.

Nexus Portal is a neutral, online platform that solely provides tools, functionality, and communication channels enabling the Subscription Services. Nexus Portal is not a transportation service provider, shipper, dealer, agent, or representative of Subscriber, and Nexus Portal does not participate in, negotiate, broker, supervise, or consummate any transaction between Subscriber and Lead Contacts. All transactions relating to any Lead, including any offers, acceptances, terms, inspections, payments, and transfer of title or possession of any Vehicle, are solely between the applicable Subscriber and Lead Contact.

Nexus Portal does not examine, inspect, verify, or review any Vehicle submitted in a Lead, and makes no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, legality, genuineness, ownership, condition, or legitimacy of any Lead or Vehicle information. Nexus Portal has no obligation to investigate, confirm, vet, screen, or police any Leads, Subscriber Content, communications, or user conduct, including any fraudulent, misleading, inaccurate, or improper postings or behavior. Subscribers are solely responsible for conducting their own due diligence before entering into any transaction.

Furthermore, Nexus Portal is not responsible for moving or shipping any Vehicle nor will Nexus Portal take possession of any Vehicle.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

Subscriber shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Nexus Portal, its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives ("Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, actions, demands, proceedings, suits, investigations, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, fines, penalties, interest, fees, costs, expenses, and settlements (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) (collectively, "Claims"), arising out of, relating to, or in connection with: (a) your access to or use or misuse of the Subscription Services or the Website; (b) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms or any applicable law; (c) any Subscriber Content you submit or transmit; (d) any transaction or other interaction between Subscriber and any third party, including Lead Contacts; or (e) any actual or alleged personal injury (including death) or property damage resulting from Subscriber's acts or omissions.

The Indemnified Parties shall promptly notify Subscriber in writing of any Claim for which indemnification is sought. Failure to provide prompt notice shall not relieve Subscriber of its obligations except to the extent materially prejudiced thereby. Subscriber shall assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Parties may, at their own expense, participate in the defense.

Subscriber may not settle any claim without the Indemnified Parties' prior written consent if such settlement: (i) admits wrongdoing or fault by any Indemnified Party; (ii) imposes any non-monetary obligation on any Indemnified Party; or (iii) does not include a full, unconditional release in favor of all Indemnified Parties.

The indemnity obligations under this Section shall survive any termination, expiration, or cessation of these Terms and the Subscriber's use of the Subscription Services or Website.

The indemnification rights provided herein are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other rights or remedies available at law or in equity.

12. THIRD-PARTY SITES

The Subscription Services or the Website might contain links to third party websites, services, and advertisements for third parties (collectively, "Third Party Sites"). Such Third-Party Sites are not under the control of Nexus Portal and Nexus Portal is not responsible for any Third-Party Sites. Nexus Portal does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations with respect to Third Party Sites. You use all Third-Party Sites at your own risk. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any transaction in connection with such Third-Party Sites.

13. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Illinois, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the Parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Nexus Portal and Subscriber will attempt to resolve in good faith any claim, controversy, or dispute arising out of, relating to, or in connection with these Terms, Subscription Services, or any other engagement between the parties through consultation and negotiation in a spirit of mutual cooperation. Nexus Portal and Subscriber agree to make reasonable efforts to correspond and attempt to resolve any such dispute before resorting to arbitration.
If those efforts fail, and either Nexus Portal or Subscriber wishes to pursue any unresolved claim(s), such claim(s) shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may assert claims in small claims court if the claim(s) qualify; and may bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin infringement or misuse of intellectual property rights, including to seek temporary restraining orders or injunctive relief.
At least thirty (30) days before beginning an arbitration proceeding, the party seeking arbitration must send an individualized written notice, personally signed, identifying the party, its legal claims, the requested relief, and the intent to pursue arbitration. Such notice shall be sent by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS, or USPS express mail (signature required) to:
Nexus Portal, LLC
1320 Tower Road
Schaumburg, IL 60173

If Nexus Portal initiates arbitration, it shall send such notice to Subscriber at the last known address or by electronic mail if no physical address is available.
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law shall govern this arbitration provision. Except as otherwise provided herein, the arbitration shall be administered by the National Arbitration and Mediation ("NAM") under its rules, including for Consumer-Related Disputes. Nexus Portal and Subscriber also agree to delegate the issue of arbitrability to the arbitrator.
There shall be no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, the arbitrator shall have the authority to award the same damages and relief that a court could (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages).
Arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator with at least five (5) years' experience in commercial contract disputes, mutually agreed upon by the parties. If the parties cannot agree, the arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the NAM's rules. Unless otherwise agreed, the arbitration shall take place in Chicago, Illinois (or as close thereto as reasonably practicable).
The arbitrator shall allow for reasonable, limited discovery and may grant emergency or interim relief as necessary. The parties agree to work in good faith to expedite the proceedings and to cooperate in discovery.
Payment of administrative and arbitrator fees shall be governed by the NAM's rules, except that all filing fees shall be paid by the filing party. If Subscriber is the prevailing party, Subscriber may seek reimbursement of its reasonable fees and costs. If Nexus Portal is the prevailing party, it may seek reimbursement of its attorneys' fees and costs if the arbitrator determines Subscriber's claims were frivolous.
Nexus Portal and Subscriber agree that any arbitration proceedings, related communications, and the arbitration award (the "Arbitration Award") shall remain strictly confidential. The submission to arbitration and agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically enforceable, and judgment upon any Arbitration Award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If multiple disputes arise regarding the same or substantially similar issues, the claims shall be arbitrated in the order in which they were filed, and all claims must be filed within three (3) years of the occurrence of the dispute.
THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS.
ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. NEITHER PARTY MAY BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, NOR MAY ANY CLAIMS BE CONSOLIDATED OR ARBITRATED TOGETHER WITH THOSE OF OTHER SUBSCRIBERS OR THIRD PARTIES. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE. NOTHING IN THIS PROVISION, HOWEVER, SHOULD OPERATE TO PREVENT NEXUS PORTAL OR SUBSCRIBER FROM SETTLING CLAIMS ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS OR OTHERWISE COORDINATING CLAIMS FILED IN ARBITRATION.
If a court of competent jurisdiction or the arbitrator determines that applicable law precludes enforcement of any portion of the class or collective action waiver with respect to a particular claim, then such claim, and only that claim, shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Illinois in accordance with Section 16 of these Terms. All other claims shall remain subject to arbitration on an individual basis.

15. ADDITIONAL TERMS FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

Under Cal. Civ. Code § 1789.3, California consumers are entitled to know that they may file grievances and complaints with the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs, in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento CA 95834, or by telephone at (916) 445-1254 or (800) 952-5210 or by email at dca@dca.ca.gov.

16. EXCLUSIVE VENUE

17. JURY TRIAL WAIVER

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, Nexus Portal and Subscriber each waive any right to a jury trial.

18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.

19. NO AGENCY

Subscriber shall be deemed not to be an agent, joint venturer or representative of Nexus Portal, and Subscriber may not create any obligations or responsibilities on behalf of or in the name of Nexus Portal.

20. NO ASSIGNMENT

You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate your rights, interests, or obligations under these Terms.

21. CONSTRUCTION

Subscriber and Nexus Portal acknowledge that they have participated fully in the review and revision of these Terms and have had the opportunity to seek the advice of legal counsel. Any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in interpreting this Agreement.

22. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed separable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement and shall in no way affect or impair the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

23. WAIVERS

No delay or omission on the part of Nexus Portal in requiring performance by you or in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any provision hereof or of any right or rights hereunder; and the waiver, omission or delay in requiring performance or exercising any right hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of such performance or right, or of any right or remedy under this Agreement, on any future occasion. A waiver must be in writing and executed by Nexus Portal in order to be enforceable.

24. SECTION HEADINGS

Section headings are for descriptive purposes only and shall not control or alter the meaning of these Terms.

25. NO REPRESENTATION

You represent that you have carefully read and understand the scope and effect of the provisions of these Terms. Neither you nor Nexus Portal has relied upon any representations or statements made by the other party which are not specifically set forth in these Terms.

26. SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS

Any provisions of these Terms that by their nature are intended to survive termination, expiration, or cessation of access to the Subscription Services or Website shall so survive.
Without limiting the foregoing, all provisions relating to intellectual property rights, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, prohibited uses, confidentiality, dispute resolution, governing law, and any other provisions which must survive to give proper effect to their intent shall remain in full force and effect after termination.
