and/or on your mobile device (the “Service”). This Terms of Use Agreement (“Terms”) governs the terms,
conditions, access, use and services provided by E&M to you. Your download of the App and your use of
the Service constitutes your agreement to these Terms.

However, in the event E&M decides to offer an Update, you agree that E&M may amend these Terms in connection with such Update without specific notice to you and that your installation and use of the Update is conditioned upon your acceptance of any revised Terms. By installing an Update, you are representing that you have reviewed the then-current version of the Terms and agree to be bound by such version. You may not install any Update unless you agree to the then-current version of the Terms and are at least 18 years old. All Updates will be governed by the version of these Terms published by E&M as of the date you install such Update.
We reserve the right, at any time, to modify, suspend, or discontinue the App and Service, or any part
thereof, with or without notice, subject to the terms of any agreement you have with E&M. You agree that
E&M will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of

PROVIDED THEREIN ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT
YOU HAVE NOT ENTERED INTO THESE TERMS IN RELIANCE UPON ANY WARRANTY OR
REPRESENTATION.
E&M HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE
APP, THE SERVICE AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION PROVIDED THEREIN EITHER
EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, OF SATISFACTORY QUALITY,

NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. E&M DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP,
THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT PROVIDED BY THEREIN, INCLUDING ANY PARTNER

NEITHER E&M, ITS AFFILIATES, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,

ALLOCATION OF RISK. THE APP AND SERVICE WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED WITHOUT SUCH
LIMITATIONS AND YOU AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS OF LIABILITY,
DISCLAIMERS AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES SPECIFIED HEREIN WILL SURVIVE EVEN IF

12. General Arbitration; Applicable Law
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Except for a claim by E&M of infringement or misappropriation of E&M’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret, any and all disputes between you and E&M arising under or related in any way to these Terms must be resolved through binding arbitration as described in this section. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be interpreted broadly. It includes, but is not limited to, all claims and disputes relating to your use of the App and Service.
BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AND E&M ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AND E&M AGREE THAT EACH
MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND
NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE
PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS
ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.
Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or related to these Terms shall be referred to, governed by, and finally resolved through arbitration with the International Center for Dispute Resolution (“ICDR”) of the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules. The place of the arbitration proceedings shall be held in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Minnesota law shall apply. The dispute, controversy or claims shall be decided by one (1) arbitrator who is licensed to practice law and has a minimum of ten (10) years’ of arbitration experience. The language of arbitration shall be English.
For any claim where the total amount of the award sought is $10,000 or less, the ICDR, you and E&M must
abide by the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted solely based on written submissions; 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 ICDR rules, and the hearing (if any) must take place in Minnesota.
The arbitrator’s ruling is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent
jurisdiction. In the event this agreement to arbitrate is held unenforceable by a court, then the disputes that
would otherwise have been arbitrated shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in
Minnesota. Claims of infringement or misappropriation of E&M’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade
secret shall be exclusively brought in the state and federal courts located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
13. Entire Agreement; Severability; Waiver
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and E&M and supersede all prior and
contemporaneous discussions between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. If any term of
these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions
of these Terms will remain enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified
so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. No failure or delay by E&M in
exercising any right hereunder will be deemed a waiver of any other provision of these Terms on any other
occasion.
14. Successors; Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries
This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of both parties and their respective successors,
heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, and permitted assigns. You may not assign or
transfer these Terms or your rights and obligations hereunder without E&M’s prior written consent, and
any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. No third party shall
have any rights hereunder.
15. Governing Law
Any claim relating to E&M’s App and Service shall be governed in all respects in accordance with the
substantive and procedural laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to any state’s choice of law rules.
