IS A FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN US AND YOU. THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED FOR SALE TO YOU WITHOUT SUCH LIMITATIONS. IN NO
EVENT WILL OUR LIABILITY, OR THE LIABILITY OF OUR LICENSORS, AND OUR RESPECTIVE PARENTS, AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES,
ADVISORS, CONSULTANTS, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS, TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTIES IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS (US $100.00). SOME STATES OR OTHER
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
CHOICE OF LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
The Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama, without regard to its conflicts of law
provisions. In the event of any dispute, claim, question or
disagreement (“Claim”) between You and FEP arising from
or relating to Your use of the System, You and FEP will attempt, in
good faith, to resolve any Claim within thirty (30) days after written notice of the Claim. Any Claim not so resolved shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the
American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, using the Expedited Procedures. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any
court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall be an individual generally skilled in the legal and business aspects of the subject matter of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall have no
authority to impose penalties or award punitive damages. The arbitration shall take place in Madison County, Alabama, and the arbitrator shall apply the law of the State of Alabama and
applicable rules of evidence. If all parties and the arbitrator agree, arbitration may take place by telephone or by written communication. Unless the arbitrator otherwise directs, the
parties, their representatives, other participants, and the arbitrator shall hold the existence, content, and result of the arbitration in confidence. No action, regardless of form, related to
the obligations of the parties under this Agreement may be brought by either party against the other more than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued. In any proceeding to
enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will have the right, in addition to its other rights hereunder, to recover its reasonable litigation
costs and reasonable attorneys’
fees.
Nothing in this Section shall preclude any party from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction or exercising any self-help remedies, whether before, during or after
the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. The parties agree that taking any such action does not waive any right that either party has to demand arbitration at any time with respect to
subsequent or amended disputes claimed or filed against a party after commencement of litigation. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, ALL PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE ANY
RIGHTS TO A JURY OR COURT TRIAL. If any provision of this dispute resolution procedure is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and shall not
be affected by the invalidity of any other provision.
By tapping "Accept", you again agree and confirm that you have read and understood these Terms of Service and the
Disclaimer

ENTIRE AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENT; MISCELLANEOUS.
These Terms constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between You and us. It supersedes any and
all prior or contemporaneous agreement, oral or written, and any other communications, representations, warranties and understanding relating to the subject matter hereof. If there is a
conflict between an oral or written representation of any FEP employee or agent, or any Dealer or Distributor employee or agent, and these Terms, these Terms will prevail. These Terms
will prevail over other rules and policies on the System. Our failure to enforce any provision of these terms shall not be deemed either a waiver of such provision or a waiver of the right
to enforce such provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such provision shall be construed, as nearly
as possible, to reflect the intentions of the parties and the other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The provision of these Terms which, by their terms should survive
termination or expiration of these Terms, shall survive the termination or expiration hereof. FEP may assign this Agreement to any other entity of its choosing, with or without notice to
You. You may not assign these Terms to any other party without the prior written consent of FEP. FEP shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies unless such waiver
is in writing and signed by FEP. No delay or omission on the part of FEP in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or
remedies on future occasions. The section titles in these Terms are solely used for the convenience of the parties and have no legal or contractual significance.
