ROUTEMASTERS

Rights and Obligations of ROUTEMASTERS

If requested, ROUTEMASTERS will:
1. Enable customers to purchase goods and/or services from Merchant via i) ROUTEMASTERS’s proprietary ordering, advertising, delivery logistics, and billing system using its associated web-based and mobile properties and apps (the “ROUTEMASTERS Merchant Software”); ii) built upon ROUTEMASTERS’s e-commerce, logistics, and delivery platform (“Platform”).
2. Include Merchant on the Platform as provided herein, and will enable the transmission of orders to Merchant for pickup and/or delivery (the “Logistics Services”). The Logistics Services, together with the Delivery Services (each as defined below), will be referred to herein as the “Services.”
3. Connect Merchant with delivery service providers using ROUTEMASTERS’s Platform (the “Delivery Services”). For clarity, ROUTEMASTERS does not itself provide delivery or logistics services; instead, ROUTEMASTERS provides a platform for businesses to connect with delivery service providers to transport orders to customers and to receive information relating thereto. Delivery service providers are independent Platform users who access ROUTEMASTERS’s proprietary technologies to provide on-demand delivery and logistics services, and such independent contractors control the method and manner in which they deliver orders. Accordingly, ROUTEMASTERS will not be liable or responsible for any delivery service providers or any errors or misrepresentations made by them.
ROUTEMASTERS owns all right, title, and interest in and to the ROUTEMASTERS Merchant Software and the Platform, and any content supplied by ROUTEMASTERS. ROUTEMASTERS will have sole editorial control over the Merchant Software and Platform, including the presentation of any content provided by Merchant (“Merchant Content”). Merchant Content may include, without limitation, menus, photographs, trademarks and logos. For the term of the Agreement and for six (6) months thereafter, Merchant hereby grants to ROUTEMASTERS a royalty-free, worldwide, sub-licenseable, transferable, fully paid-up, irrevocable right and license to use the Merchant Content in connection with the Merchant Software, Platform, and for marketing and promotional purposes via any means now known or hereinafter developed. Merchant owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Merchant Content, subject to the license granted to ROUTEMASTERS herein. ROUTEMASTERS may remove Merchant Content on the ROUTEMASTERS Merchant Software or Platform at any time if it believes, in its sole discretion, that such Merchant Content violates any applicable laws, infringes upon any third-party rights, or otherwise impacts the integrity of the ROUTEMASTERS Merchant Software and Platform.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THE AGREEMENT, ROUTEMASTERS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION WITH THE AGREEMENT, THE ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE, PLATFORM, THE SERVICES, AND ANY USE THEREOF, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED OR EXPRESS WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, AND ROUTEMASTERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO ENTERPRISE FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE FAILURE OF THE ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE, PLATFORM, SERVICES OR ENTERPRISE CONTENT. ROUTEMASTERS WILL NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE LIABLE TO ENTERPRISE FOR INDIRECT, WILLFUL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OR INACCURACY OF DATA OF ANY KIND, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF THE PARTY IS APPRISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES OCCURRING. ROUTEMASTERS’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THE AGREEMENT WILL BE THE AMOUNT OF FEES EARNED BY ROUTEMASTERS DURING THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE EVENT WHICH GAVE RISE TO SUCH DAMAGES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THE AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Upon expiration or termination of the Agreement and as requested by ROUTEMASTERS, Merchant will deliver to ROUTEMASTERS (or destroy at ROUTEMASTERS’s election) any and all materials or documents containing the Confidential Information, together with all copies thereof in whatever form.
“Customer Data” means (i) any and all information about customers generated or collected by ROUTEMASTERS or Merchant through the Merchant Software, Platform, or Services, including, but not limited to, customer’s name, delivery address(es), email address(es), phone number(s), and customer preferences and tendencies and (ii) any information that may otherwise be considered “personal data” or “personal information” under applicable law.

Accordingly, Merchant will use Customer Data for the sole purpose of fulfilling applicable customer orders or otherwise satisfying Merchant’s obligations hereunder. Merchant (and any other persons to whom Merchant provides any Customer Data only as necessary to perform the Agreement) will implement and maintain comprehensive administrative, physical and technical safeguards in accordance with current best practices in Merchant’s industry in order to protect, handle, and secure Customer Data. Merchant will also be responsible for any breach of this provision by any third-party service provider engaged by Merchant. Merchant will notify ROUTEMASTERS in a secure manner immediately upon a data security breach or any reasonable suspicion thereof or any other unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, and assist and cooperate with ROUTEMASTERS concerning any remedial measures and any disclosures to affected parties, in each case as requested by ROUTEMASTERS or required under applicable law.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
THIS SECTION ENTITLED “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” HAS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION. IT AFFECTS THE ENTERPRISE’S LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE CAYMAN ISLANDS WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW RULES, NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY PARTY. Merchant and ROUTEMASTERS agree that all claims or disputes arising out of the Agreement will be decided by an arbitrator through arbitration and not by a judge or jury (“Arbitration Agreement”). This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and evidences a transaction involving commerce. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), which are available at www.adr.org. The arbitrator’s fees and the costs will be shared equally by the parties, unless prohibited by law. Parties are responsible for their own attorneys’ fees. The arbitration proceeding will take place in Los Angeles, CA, unless otherwise agreed. A court of competent jurisdiction will have the authority to enter judgment on the arbitrator’s decision and award. The parties agree to bring any claim or dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not as a class or collective action, and there will be no right or authority for any claim or dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action (“Class Action Waiver”). Regardless of anything herein and/or the applicable AAA Rules, the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of the Class Action Waiver may only be determined by a court and not an arbitrator. The following claims are excluded from this Arbitration Agreement: (a) claims in small claims court; (b) claims to enforce or to prevent the actual or threatened violation of a party’s intellectual property rights; (c) claims for temporary relief in connection with an arbitrable controversy; and (d) claims that are non-arbitrable per the applicable federal statute.

Miscellaneous Terms
ROUTEMASTERS and Merchant are independent contractors, and nothing herein may be construed to create any agency, partnership or joint venture between them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other party in any respect whatsoever. The Agreement are not intended to benefit, nor will it be deemed to give rise to, any rights in any third party. No ambiguity will be construed against any party based upon a claim that such party drafted the ambiguous language. The Agreement and any other agreements or terms incorporated herein by reference, constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior understanding (written or oral) on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the Agreement and any of the ROUTEMASTERS Terms of Use, or the ROUTEMASTERS Privacy Policy, the terms of the Agreement will control; in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Services Form and these Terms, the terms of the Services Form will control. ROUTEMASTERS hereby reserves the right to update and modify these Terms at any time at its sole discretion. It is Merchant’s responsibility to review these Terms periodically to ensure compliance. The Agreement may not be amended by Merchant unless such amendment is signed by an authorized representative of ROUTEMASTERS. If any provision of the Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party has reviewed, revised, and has been given the opportunity to have counsel review and revise, these Terms and that any rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of these Terms or any amendments, appendices, exhibits, or schedules thereto. In the event of a breach, in addition to any remedies at law or in equity, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek specific performance and immediate injunctive relief. Failure by either party to require performance or claim breach will not be construed as a waiver. A party will not be liable for any failure of or delay in the performance of the Agreement for the period that such failure or delay is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, war, strikes or labor disputes, embargoes, government orders or any other force majeure event. Merchant may not assign the Agreement without the prior written consent of ROUTEMASTERS, and if permission is secured, the assignor will provide ROUTEMASTERS with advance written notice so that payment can be directed appropriately. Any assignment by Merchant in violation of this provision will be deemed a nullity. ROUTEMASTERS may freely assign the Agreement. The Agreement will be binding on the parties’ permitted heirs, successors and assigns. Any dispute, controversy or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the relationship between the parties hereto will be governed by in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. This Section 6, the customer data, ownership, confidentiality, indemnity, limitation of liability and arbitration provisions and any other terms required for the full interpretation of the Agreement following expiration or termination will survive any expiration or termination of the Agreement. If applicable, these Terms may be signed in counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original, but which together constitute one and the same instrument. Copies of signatures sent by facsimile or by PDF scan/email transmission are deemed to be originals for purposes of execution and proof of these Terms.
