You agree to pay the applicable Subscription fee (the “Subscription Fee”) based on the Subscription plan you select as specified on the Platform when you sign up (the “Subscription Plan”) and any additional Platform Content you choose to add to your Subscription Plan (the “Add-on Content”). Once you select a Subscription Plan, we will charge the applicable Subscription Fee to the credit card number you provide to us at the checkout page (less any applicable Subscription discounts that may be applicable). The duration of your Subscription (the “Subscription Period”) will be one year unless you select another option (if available) when you choose your Subscription. Subscription Fees are subject to increase at any time, which increase will be applicable at the time your Subscription is renewed. You agree to provide us with updated credit card information prior to the expiration of the credit card you have on file so you always have a valid credit card on file with us. If you allow your Subscription to lapse, or it is otherwise cancelled for any reason, your access to and license to use the Platform Content will terminate and the Platform Content will no longer be available to you, including any Add-On Content.

a. Subscription Upgrades and Downgrades. At any time during your Subscription Period, you may choose to upgrade your Subscription to a higher tier Subscription Plan or downgrade your subscription to a lower tiered Subscription Plan, as applicable. If you change your Subscription Plan in the middle of your Subscription Period, your Subscription Fee will be prorated over the course of the remainder of your Subscription Period to account for the difference in cost between your current Subscription Plan and your new Subscription Plan. Upon finalizing a change in your Subscription Plan, your access to Platform Content will be adjusted to account for your new Subscription Plan features. This may mean that you will lose access to certain Platform Content and Subscription features if you downgrade your Subscription Plan.

b. Automatic Renewal. SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED FOR SUCCESSIVE RENEWAL PERIODS OF THE SAME DURATION AS THE ORIGINAL SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE SUBSCRIPTION PLAN SELECTED UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE END OF THE CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD BY LOGGING INTO YOUR ACCOUNT AND CLICKING THE “CANCEL” BUTTON. Upon such renewal, you authorize Atavus to charge the credit card number you provided to us at the time you signed up for your Subscription, or such updated credit card you may provide to us from time to time. If you chose to upgrade or downgrade your Subscription Plan during the Subscription Period, your Subscription will automatically renew at the new Subscription Plan you chose at the end of the Subscription Period. Atavus will notify you if the price of a Subscription that will be automatically renewed increases and, if required, seek your consent to continue.

c. Pricing. All prices for Subscription Plans and Add-on Content are shown in U.S. dollars and applicable taxes and other charges, if any, are additional.

You may cancel your Subscription at any time by accessing your account and choosing the “cancel” option.

Atavus reserves the right to cancel your Subscription at any time, with or without cause, including if we discontinue the Service. If we cancel without cause, we will issue a prorated refund of the Subscription Fee, and this will be your sole and exclusive remedy for any such cancellation. Upon the effective date of cancellation for any reason, your account and your license to the Platform Content will be terminated and you will no longer be able to access or use the Platform, the Services, any associated Platform Content (including any Add-On Content) , or your Certification.

You must cease representing that you have been certified after the expiration date stated in the applicable certificate of completion, unless you have become recertified.

Certifications are based solely on your completion of the designated certification course and your passing a written test, and you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the proper implementation of the techniques learned in the certification course.

11. Dispute Resolution. Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Atavus and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.

No Representative Actions. You and Atavus agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Subscription Terms, the Platform, the Platform Content, or our Services is personal to you and Atavus and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or Atavus seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or Atavus seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and Atavus waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Subscription Terms or our Platform, Platform Content, or Services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against Atavus or relating in any way to the Subscription Terms or our Platform, Platform Content, or Services, You agree to first contact Atavus and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to Atavus by email at contact@atavus.com or by certified mail addressed to:

Legal Agent

1560 1st Ave S.

Seattle, WA 98134

E-Mail Address of Designated Legal Agent: contact@atavus.com

Telephone Number of Designated Agent: +1 206-960-4280

The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and Atavus cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Seattle Washington, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

You and Atavus agree that these Subscription Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 11 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

The arbitrator, Atavus, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

You and Atavus agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee and Atavus will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by Company, Atavus will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and Atavus agree that the state or federal courts of the State of [state] and the United States sitting in [county, state] have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Any claim arising out of or related to these Subscription Terms or our Platform, Platform Content, or Services must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and Atavus will not have the right to assert the claim.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 11 by emailing us at contact@atavus.com. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with this Section 11.

If any portion of this Section 11 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 11 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 11; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 11is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 11 will be enforceable

12. Severability. If any provision of these Subscription Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
