TERMS OF USE
VITALPATCH® BIOSENSOR, VISTAPHONE AND VITALCONNECT PLATFORM

IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY.

IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY. THESE TERMS OF USE (“TERMS”) ARE A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU (OR YOUR LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE) (“YOU”) AND VITALCONNECT, INC. AND ITS AFFILIATES (COLLECTIVELY, “VITALCONNECT,” WE,“ “US,” OR “OUR”) FOR THE USE OF THE SERVICE AND ANY OF ITS COMPONENTS AND ACCESSORIES SOLD BY VITALCONNECT.

By clicking “I Accept”, or by accessing or using the Service (defined below), You represent and warrant that You have read, understand, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms, including the use of Your personal information as described herein and in our Notice of Privacy Practices, and that You are of legal age to enter into a binding contract. Your use of the Service is expressly conditioned on Your acceptance of the Terms contained herein. If You do not agree to these Terms, including the mandatory arbitration provision in Section 18, please do not use the Service.

Section 18 of these Terms contains a mandatory binding arbitration provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis and limits the remedies available to You in the event of certain disputes related to the Service. BY AGREEING TO THESE Terms, You understand and agree that You are waiving Your right to a jury trial and to participating in a class action. See Section 18.

Additional terms that are specific to a particular aspect of the Products or Services may be set forth in connection with the use of that particular aspect of the Products or Services. You may be required to agree to them as a condition of accessing or using aspects of the Products or Service. In the event of a conflict between other additional terms, on the one hand, and these Terms, on the other hand, these Terms shall control to the extent of the conflict.

18. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

18.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between You and VitalConnect in the most expedient and cost effective manner, You and VitalConnect agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims (including, without limitation, substantive claims and threshold questions of the applicability and scope of this Section 18) arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, products liability, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND VITALCONNECT ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

18.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 18.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

18.3 Arbitrator. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any arbitration between You and VitalConnect will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting VitalConnect.

18.4 Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). VitalConnect's address for Notice is: VitalConnect, Inc., Attention: Legal Department, 2870 Zanker Rd, Suite 100, San Jose, CA 195134. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, You or VitalConnect may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by You or VitalConnect must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.

18.5 Fees. If You commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, VitalConnect will reimburse You for Your payment of the filing fee, unless Your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Santa Clara County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, You may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of Your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of Your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, You agree to reimburse VitalConnect for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise Your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator's ruling on the merits.

18.6 No Class Actions or Mass Arbitration. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND VitalConnect AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, OR PARTICIPANT IN MASS ARBITRATION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both You and VitalConnect agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a mass, representative, or class proceeding.

18.7 Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If VitalConnect makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to VitalConnect's address for Notice, You may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to VitalConnect's address for Notice, in which case Your account with VitalConnect will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes You rejected will survive.

18.8 Opt-Out Procedure. You can choose to reject this Arbitration Agreement by mailing us a written opt-out notice (“Opt-Out Notice”) in accordance with the terms of this Section. For new users, the Opt-Out Notice must be postmarked no later than 30 days after the date You use the Service for the first time. You must mail the Opt-Out Notice to VitalConnect, Inc., Attention: Legal Department, 2870 Zanker Rd, Suite 100, San Jose, CA 95134. The Opt-Out Notice must state that You do not agree to the arbitration agreement and must include Your name, address, phone number, and the email address(es) used to log in to the Service to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way You can opt out of the arbitration agreement. If You opt out of the arbitration agreement, VitalConnect will likewise not be bound by these arbitration provisions. All other terms of these Terms will continue to apply. Opting out of the arbitration agreement has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that You may have with us. VitalConnect users who accepted a previous version of these Terms that included an arbitration agreement, and who did not timely opt out of that arbitration agreement, remain bound by the last arbitration agreement that they accepted. Upon receipt of a valid Opt-Out Notice, VitalConnect will provide the opting out user with a copy of the arbitration agreement from the last version of the Terms that the user accepted, if any exists.
