WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

14.2 Disclaimers. Each Visitor acknowledges that its consent and agreement to the following disclaimers and limitations is a material inducement for Converge to permit the Visitor to access the Website or use the System.

(a) THE WEBSITE, THE SYSTEM, AND THEIR CONTENT, INCLUDING ALL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES FROM CONVERGE, ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY.

(b) Converge does not warrant that the content, functions, or services contained in or accessed through the website or the system will be uninterrupted, accurate, reliable, or error-free. Each Visitor, and not Converge, assumes the cost of all necessary servicing, repair, or correction if there is any loss or damage arising from or in connection with the use of the Website, the System, their Content, or any Services. Converge does not warrant or make any representation regarding the use of the Website or the System or the results of their use related to accuracy, reliability, or otherwise. The Website or the System may include errors (including technical or typographical errors). Converge may make changes to the Website or the System at any time, with or without notice.

(d) Converge disclaims any liability arising out of or related to a Visitor’s use of this Website or the System if the offer or sale of any product or service or system offered through the Website is illegal in the Visitor’s jurisdiction. The materials on the Website or the System may not be appropriate or available for use in a Visitor’s location. Visitors who choose to access the Website or the System do so on their own initiative and at their own risk and are responsible for compliance with local laws, rules, and regulations applicable to them. Converge may limit the

Website's or the System's availability, in whole or in part, to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction.

(e) Viruses. Converge does not assume any responsibility or risk for a Visitor’s use of the Internet and the myriad of risks it presents. Converge can not and does not guarantee that the materials contained on this Website or in the System will be free of viruses, worms, or other code or related hazards that may have destructive properties (collectively, “Viruses”). Each Visitor is responsible to ensure that it has sufficient procedures, firewalls, checkpoints, and safeguards within its computer system to satisfy its particular requirements to protect against Viruses.

(f) Information Monitoring and Updates.

(1) Converge attempts to ensure that information on the Website is complete, accurate, and current. Despite Converge’s efforts, the information on this Website may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, and Converge makes no representation to any Visitor about the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of any information on the Website, such as information about the nature or characteristics of any services Converge provides, including pricing or terms of sale.

(2) While this Website facilitates transactions between Customers and Converge, not all terms of those transactions are available to Users of the Website who are not attempting to complete such a transaction. Any terms offered or described on this Website from time to time may be different from those available at any given time to any Customer or prospective Customer.

(g) Third Parties and Third-Party Websites

(1) The Website may contain links to other websites for the convenience and information of Visitors. Links may be contained on pages, or in blog posts, emails from Converge, or newsletters Converge may make available from time to time.

(2) Such links may be to advertisers, merchandise retailers, payment processors, content providers, social media or other companies who may use Converge’s logo or style as a result of a co-branding agreement. These websites may be operated by companies that are not affiliated with Converge and may have different privacy policies and terms of use. Notwithstanding the presentation of, or links to, any third-party information or website on the Website, such

presentation is not an endorsement, guarantee, representation, or warranty, either express or implied, by Converge on behalf of any third party. Converge does not control the content that appears on these websites or their privacy practices.

(3) Converge hereby disclaims any liability or responsibility for the content, subject matter, or substance of any information accessed or obtained from third-party websites accessed from or via the Website. Accessing third-party websites from the Website is therefore done at each Visitor’s own risk.

(h) These Terms apply only to the Website and do not apply to any websites, even those controlled by us, that are linked to the Website. For access to the terms of use or privacy policies of linked websites, a Visitor should refer to the policies of those websites.

14.3 Limitation of Liability.

(a) No party to these terms, its contractors, or their respective personnel will be liable to another party for any claims, losses, or liabilities relating to these Terms (“Claims”) for an aggregate amount in excess of the fees paid by the Customer to Converge during the 12-month period immediately preceding the date on which the initial act or omission giving rise to the liability first occurred. IN NO EVENT WILL A PARTY, ITS CONTRACTORS, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE PERSONNEL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT CONVERGE IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO SOME VISITORS. IF THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS ARE HELD INAPPLICABLE OR UNENFORCEABLE FOR ANY REASON, AND IF CONVERGE IS HELD RESPONSIBLE BY ANY COURT, THEN THE MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF CONVERGE TO A VISITOR FOR ANY TYPE OF DAMAGES WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT THE VISITOR PAID CONVERGE FOR THE SYSTEM, PRODUCTS, OR SERVICES.

(b) The provisions of this Section 14.3 do not apply to (1) any Claim for which one party has an express obligation to indemnify the other under these Terms, (2) a breach of Section 5 (Subscription) or Section 12 (Confidentiality), (3) any amounts owed by the Customer to Converge for the Fees provided for under these Terms, or (4) the extent resulting from a party’s bad faith or intentional misconduct. In circumstances in which any limitation on damages or indemnification provision under these Terms is unavailable, the parties shall ensure that the aggregate liability of each party, its contractors, and their respective personnel for any Claim does not exceed an amount that is proportional to the relative fault that such party’s conduct bears to all other conduct giving rise to the Claim.

14.4 Limited Warranties. Converge warrants that (1) the execution, delivery and performance of these Terms by Converge will not conflict with, breach, or cause a default under, any material contract with any third party; and (2) it has the right to provide a subscription for the System.

14.5 Time Limit for Bringing Actions. Any action, regardless of form, arising under or relating to these Terms must be brought not later than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued, except that an action for non-payment must be brought not later than two (2) years after the due date of the last payment owed to the party bringing the action.

15. Indemnification 15.1 Definitions.

(a) “Company Indemnitees” means any one or more of Converge, its directors, officers, equity holders, employees, agents, and affiliates.

(b) “Indemnifiable Losses” means losses and liabilities, including reasonably incurred legal fees, expenses, and costs of court, arbitration, and mediation.

15.1 Customer Indemnification Obligations. The Customer shall indemnify the Company Indemnitees against all Indemnifiable Losses arising out of or related to any claims asserted by a third party arising out of (1) any intentional misconduct or negligent act or omission of the Customer, (2) any violation by the Customer, its Authorized Users, or its representatives of any applicable law; (3) material or information created or provided by the Customer, including any

Indemnifiable Losses arising from the actual or alleged infringement by the Customer of any third-party intellectual property right pertaining to such material or information; (4) any investigations of or involving the Customer or the Customer’s conduct by Converge, law enforcement, or governmental authorities; or (5) User-Generated Content submitted by the Customer or its Authorized Users.

15.2 User Indemnification Obligations. Each User shall indemnify the Company Indemnitees against all Indemnifiable Losses or liabilities arising out of or related to any claims, including third-party claims and causes of action, arising out of or related to any one or more of the following: (1) any intentional misconduct or negligent act or omission of the User related to the Website or the System, (2) the User’s breach of these Terms; (3) material or information created or provided by the User, including any Indemnifiable Losses arising from the actual or alleged infringement by the User of any third-party intellectual property right pertaining to such material or information; (5) any investigations of or involving the User or the User’s conduct by Converge, law enforcement, or governmental authorities; (6) the User’s violation of any applicable law; (7) User-Generated Content submitted by the User; (8) any use of the User’s account or credentials to the extent not resulting from the Company’s negligence; and (9) the User’s use of this Website to investigate, initiate, or complete a subscription transaction, if the offer or sale of any products, services, or the System offered through the Website is illegal in any jurisdiction to which the User is subject.

15.3 Indemnification Procedures. Converge shall use reasonable efforts to provide the Customer or User, as the case may be, with prompt written notice of any claim for which indemnification is sought under these Terms and shall reasonably cooperate with the Customer or User, as the case may be, in connection with any such claim. Converge will be entitled to control the handling of any such claim with counsel of its own choosing and to defend or settle any such claim, provided, however, that Converge shall not enter into any settlement that would require the Customer or User, as the case may be, to admit to any liability or to take or refrain from taking any action, without such person’s prior written consent.

16. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under these Terms must be in writing. Notice will be deemed given (1) upon receipt when delivered personally or sent by a reputable commercial overnight courier, or (2) five (5) business days following mailing by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and addressed to Converge at its address set forth below or to the Customer or User, as the case may be, at the address provided by the Customer or User, as the case may be, on its account information page.

17. Additional Provisions

17.1 Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable to the other party for damages arising out of delays or failures to perform under these Terms to the extent that any such delays or failures result from any cause beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, such as fire, earthquake, explosion, casualty, strike, war, riot, civil disturbance, act of God, any reasonably unforeseeable change in state or national law, decree, or ordinance, or any executive or judicial order, provided that the affected party promptly informs the other of all relevant information.

17.2 Independent Contractor. Each of Converge and the Customer or the User, as the case may be, is an independent contractor and no party is, nor will be considered to be, nor shall purport to act as, another’s agent, partner, fiduciary, joint venturer, or representative.

17.3 Assignment. The Customer may not assign any of its rights or obligations under these Terms (including interests or claims relating to these Terms) without the prior written consent of Converge. A party may assign these Terms to any affiliate or subsidiary, without consent, upon prior written notice to the other party. Converge may assign these Terms to any acquirer of all or substantially all of its assets.

17.4 Entire Agreement. These Terms and the selections made by the Customer during the Checkout Process, if applicable, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to their subject matter and supersede all other oral or written representations, understandings, or agreements relating to their subject matter. Each party represents that it is not relying on any representation or promise not set forth in these Terms.

17.5 Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the provision will not affect any other provision, but the unenforceable provision will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable, preserving to the fullest extent permitted the intent of Converge and the Visitor, as set forth in these Terms.

17.6 Waivers; Amendments. No delay or omission by a party in enforcing its rights or remedies under these Terms will impair such right or remedy or be deemed to be a waiver of the rights or remedies. No waiver of any right or remedy under these Terms with respect to any occurrence or event on one occasion will be deemed a waiver of such right or remedy with respect to such occurrence or event on any other occasion. No amendment or waiver of these Terms by a Visitor will be valid unless in writing and signed by both parties, provided, however, that Converge may unilaterally amend these Terms in good faith.

17.7 Section Headings. The section headings contained in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms.

17.8 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. These Terms are governed by the laws of Montana. A party must bring and maintain any action arising out of these Terms exclusively in any state or federal court located in Montana. Each party hereby expressly consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of any such action. Each party hereby represents to the other that such courts are a convenient forum.

(a) Dispute Resolution. The parties shall first use good-faith efforts to attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Website, the System, the Services, these Terms, or the Privacy Policy by negotiation before bringing any action, other than an action for preliminary injunctive relief.

(b) Fees and costs. The prevailing party in any action or proceeding under these Terms will be entitled to recover legal fees and other costs reasonably incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which the party may be entitled.

(c) Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SYSTEM.
