The Purchase Agreement shall become binding and enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms on the date, if any, that the Company accepts this Purchase Agreement in whole or in part. The Purchaser understands that, upon acceptance by the Company, the Purchaser is not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this Purchase Agreement.

 

2.3.         Regulatory Issues.

 

(a)           FDIC and SIPC Matters. The SAFT is not legal tender, is not backed by the government, and accounts and value balances are not subject to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or Securities Investor Protection Corporation protections.

 

(b)           Other Federal and State Regulatory Matters. The Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the SAFT is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that the Company is not registered or licensed with any federal or state regulator as an investment adviser, broker-dealer, money services business, money transmitter, or virtual currency business. As a result, the Purchaser will not be afforded the full set of protections provided to the clients and customers of such entities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), and any similar or applicable state laws.

  

(c)           International Regulatory Matters. The regulatory risks described in this Section 2.3 take into consideration U.S. law only. It is anticipated that the Tokens will also be sold or resold outside the United States, which could subject the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates or the Tokens to non-U.S. legal requirements, which could be significant. Non-U.S. regulation could lead to the same types of changes and outcomes described above with respect to U.S. regulation, and any of these outcomes would negatively affect the value of the Tokens and/or cause the Sponsoring Parties to cease operations.

 

2.4.         Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(a)           The Purchaser acknowledges and is aware that there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the SAFT, and there will be no public market for the SAFT for U.S. Purchasers. The SAFT will not be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This means that holders of the SAFT may not transfer the SAFT to any “U.S. Person,” within the meaning of Rule 902(a)(k) under the Securities Act; provided that holders of the SAFT may transfer the SAFT to U.S. Persons that are “accredited investors” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable U.S. securities laws.

 

(b)           The Purchaser acknowledges and is aware that disposition of the SAFT may constitute engaging in a virtual currency business requiring a license under the laws of New York, another state, or foreign country.

 

(c)           The Purchaser acknowledges and is aware that any transfer made in violation of the transfer provisions of the Purchase Agreement will be void.

 

2.5.         Authorization; No Conflict.

 

(a)        Authorization of Individuals. If the Purchaser is an individual:

 

(i)            The Purchaser has all requisite legal capacity for the purchase of a SAFT;

 

(ii)           The Purchaser has all requisite legal capacity for the execution and delivery of this Purchase Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Purchaser in connection with this Purchase Agreement for a SAFT; and

 

(iii)          Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Purchase Agreement or any other document required to be executed and delivered by the Purchaser in connection with this Purchase Agreement for a SAFT, nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby by the Purchaser, (a) will violate or conflict with any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any court or other governmental body, (b) will conflict with or result in any breach or default under, permit any party to accelerate any rights under or terminate, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance pursuant to the provision of any material contract, indenture, mortgage, lease, franchise, license, permit authorization, instrument or agreement of any kind to which the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser is bound or to which the properties or assets of the Purchaser are subject, or (c) will require the consent or approval of any person other than consents or approvals that have already been obtained.

 

(b)        Authorization of Entities. If the Purchaser is an entity:

 

(i)            The Purchaser is a corporation or other organization duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation or organization and has the requisite power and authority to carry on its business and operations as now being conducted,

  

(ii)           The execution and delivery of this Purchase Agreement and each other document required to be executed and delivered by the Purchaser in connection with its purchase of a SAFT, and the performance by the Purchaser under those agreements, have been duly authorized by appropriate action;

 

(iii)          The Purchaser shall deliver to the Company any evidence of the foregoing as the Company may reasonably require, whether by way of certified resolution or otherwise; and

 

(iv)          The person executing and delivering this Purchase Agreement and any other instruments on behalf of the Purchaser has all requisite power, authority and capacity to execute and deliver those instruments.

 

(c)        Ultimate SAFT Owners.

 

(i)            If the Purchaser is acting as trustee, agent, representative or nominee for the ultimate owner of the SAFTs (an “Ultimate SAFT Owner”), the Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the representations, warranties and agreements made in this Purchase Agreement are made by the Purchaser both (a) with respect to the Purchaser and (b) with respect to the Ultimate SAFT Owner. The Purchaser further represents and warrants that it has all requisite power and authority from the Ultimate SAFT Owner to execute and perform the obligations under this Purchase Agreement.

 

(ii)           Except as otherwise agreed to in writing with the Company, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Sponsoring Parties for any and all costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) in connection with any damages resulting from the assertion of the Purchaser’s lack of proper authorization from the Ultimate SAFT Owner to enter into this Purchase Agreement or perform its obligations under it.

 

2.6.         Offering Materials and Other Information.

 

(a)        Differences with Offering Materials. The Purchaser acknowledges that in the event of any differences between the terms provided in this Purchase Agreement and any Offering Materials, the terms and conditions of this Purchase Agreement shall supersede any contrary information set forth in the Offering Materials. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to (i) ask questions of and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of this Purchase Agreement, the Offering Materials, and the business of the Company; and (ii) obtain any additional information concerning the SAFTs and their offering, the Company and any related material to the extent the Company or the Company possesses relevant information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense.

 

(b)        No Reliance. The Purchaser acknowledges that in making a decision to purchase a SAFT, the Purchaser has relied solely upon this Purchase Agreement and the Offering Materials and independent investigations made by the Purchaser. The Purchaser is not relying and may not rely on any other marketing materials for purposes of making a decision to purchase a SAFT. The Purchaser is also not relying on the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates with respect to the legal, tax and other economic factors involved in this purchase and understands that it is solely responsible for reviewing the legal, tax and other economic considerations involved with purchasing the SAFTs with its own legal, tax and other advisers.

 

(c)        Purchaser’s Review. The Purchaser understands that it is solely responsible for reviewing the Offering Materials and this Purchase Agreement and, to the extent he, she or it believes necessary, for discussing with counsel the representations, warranties and agreements that the Purchaser is making in this Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser understands that Bull Blockchain Law LLC acts as counsel only to the Company and does not represent the Purchaser or any other person by reason of purchasing the SAFT.

  

(d)        No Guarantees. Neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has made any representations (whether written or oral) to the Purchaser (i) regarding the future value of the SAFT or the future value or utility of the Tokens or (ii) that the past business performance and experience of the Sponsoring Parties will in any way predict the current or future value of the SAFT or future value or utility of the Tokens.

 

(e)        No Claim, Loan or Ownership Interest. The purchase of Tokens (i) does not provide Purchaser with rights of any form with respect to the Company or its revenues or assets, including, but not limited to, any voting, distribution, redemption, liquidation, proprietary (including all forms of intellectual property), or other financial or legal rights; (ii) is not a loan to Company; and (iii) does not provide Purchaser with any ownership or other interest in Company.

 

(f)        Intellectual Property. Company retains all current and future right, title and interest in all of Company’s intellectual property, including, without limitation, inventions, ideas, concepts, code, discoveries, processes, marks, methods, software, compositions, formulae, techniques, information and data, whether or not patentable, copyrightable or protectable in trademark, and any trademarks, copyright or patents based thereon. Purchaser may not use any of Company’s intellectual property for any reason without Company’s prior written consent.

 

2.7.         Purchaser’s Knowledge. The Purchaser has sufficient knowledge, understanding, and experience, either independently or together with his, her or its purchaser representative(s), in financial and business matters, and of the functionality, usage, storage, transmission mechanisms, and other material characteristics of cryptographic tokens, token wallets and other token storage mechanisms, public and private key management, blockchain technology, and blockchain-based software systems, to understand the terms of this Purchase Agreement and the Offering Materials, and such knowledge, understanding, and experience enables the Purchaser to evaluate the merits and risks of purchasing the Tokens.

 

2.8.         Other Risks.

 

(a)        General Economic Risk. The Purchaser (i) is able to bear the economic cost of holding the SAFT for an indefinite period of time; (ii) has adequate means of providing for his, her, or its current needs and possible personal contingencies even in the event that the SAFT loses all of its value; and (iii) has no need for liquidity of the SAFT. The Purchaser’s purchase of the SAFT is consistent with the objectives and cash flow requirements of the Purchaser and will not adversely affect the Purchaser’s overall need for diversification and liquidity.

 

(b)        Additional Risk Disclosures. The Purchaser is solely responsible for reviewing, understanding and considering the risks above and any additional risks, including without limitation those described in the Offering Materials. The Company’s operations, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any one or more of those risk factors, as could the underlying value of each Purchaser’s SAFT, which may lead to the SAFT losing all value.

 

2.9.         Transfer and Storage of Personal Data.

 

(a)        Personal Data. The Purchaser understands and agrees that in connection with the services provided by the Company, its personal data may be transferred and/or stored in various jurisdictions in which the Sponsoring Parties have a presence, including in or to jurisdictions that may not offer a level of personal data protection equivalent to the Purchaser’s country of residence.

  

(b)        Disclosure of Personal Data. The Purchaser further understands and agrees that, although the Sponsoring Parties will use their reasonable efforts to keep the information provided in the answers to this Purchase Agreement strictly confidential, the Sponsoring Parties may present this Purchase Agreement and the information provided in it to any parties (e.g., affiliates, attorneys, auditors, administrators, brokers and regulators) as the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates deem necessary or advisable to facilitate the acceptance and management of the Purchaser’s SAFT purchase, including, but not limited to, (x) in connection with anti-money laundering and similar laws, (y) if called upon to establish the availability under any applicable law of an exemption from registration of the SAFT or to establish compliance with applicable law generally by the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates, or (z) if the information is relevant to any issue in any action, suit, or proceeding to which the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates are a party or by which they are or may be bound.

 

(c)        Disclosure by Law. The Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates may also release information about the Purchaser if directed to do so by the Purchaser, if compelled to do so by law or in connection with any government or self-regulatory organization request or investigation. Any disclosure, use, storage or transfer of information for these purposes shall not be treated as a breach of any restriction upon the disclosure, use, storage or transfer of information imposed on any person by law or otherwise.

 

2.10.       Anti-Money Laundering, Economic Sanctions, Anti-Bribery and Anti-Boycott Representations.

 

(a)        Identity of Purchaser and Beneficial Owners. Neither the Purchaser, nor any of its affiliates or direct or indirect beneficial owners, (i) appears on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”), nor are they otherwise a party with which the Company or Network Sponsor are prohibited to deal under the laws of the United States, (ii) is a person identified as a terrorist organization on any other relevant lists maintained by governmental authorities, or (iii) unless otherwise disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the Purchaser’s subscription for a SAFT, is a senior foreign political figure,(2) or any immediate family member(3) or close associate(4) of a senior foreign political figure as those terms are defined in the footnotes below.

(b)        Source and Use of Funds.

 

(i)                                     The Purchaser represents, warrants and agrees that no payment or other transfer of value to the Company and no payment or other transfer of value to the Purchaser shall cause the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates to be in violation of applicable U.S. federal or state or non-U.S. laws or regulations, including, without limitation, anti-money laundering, economic sanctions, anti-bribery or anti-boycott laws or regulations, including, without limitation, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT ACT”), the various statutes, regulations and Executive Orders administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

 

(ii)                                  The Purchaser represents, warrants and agrees that no payment or other transfer of value to the Company or Network Sponsor is or will be derived from, pledged for the benefit of, or related in any way to, (1) the government of any country designated by the U.S. Secretary of State as a country supporting international terrorism, (2) property that is blocked under any laws, orders or regulations administered by OFAC (“OFAC Regulations”), or that would be blocked under OFAC Regulations if it were in the custody of a U.S. national, (3) persons to whom U.S. nationals cannot lawfully export services, or with whom U.S. nationals cannot lawfully engage in transactions, under OFAC Regulations, or (4) directly or indirectly, any illegal activities.

 

(iii)                               The Purchaser represents, warrants and agrees that all payments or other transfer of value to the Company by the Purchaser will be made through an account (or virtual currency public address whose associated balance, either directly or indirectly, has been funded by such an account) located in a jurisdiction that does not appear on the list of boycotted countries published by the U.S. Department of Treasury pursuant to §999(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), as in effect at the time of the Purchaser’s payment or other transfer of value. In the event that the Purchaser is, receives deposits from, makes payments to or conducts transactions relating to a non-U.S. banking institution (a “Non-U.S. Bank”) in connection with the Purchaser’s purchase of a SAFT, the Non-U.S. Bank: (1) has a fixed address, other than an electronic address or a post office box, in a country in which it is authorized to conduct banking activities, (2) employs one or more individuals on a full-time basis, (3) maintains operating records related to its banking activities, (4) is subject to inspection by the banking authority that licensed it to conduct banking activities and (5) does not provide banking services to any other Non-U.S. Bank that does not have a physical presence in any country and that is not a registered affiliate.

3.                                      Rule 506(d) of Regulation D.

 

3.1.                            Disqualifying Events. In the event that the Purchaser becomes subject to an event specified in Rule 506(d)(1) of the Securities Act (“Disqualifying Event”) at any date after the date of this Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser agrees and covenants to use its best efforts to coordinate with the Company (i) to provide documentation as reasonably requested by the Company related to any Disqualifying Event and (ii) to implement a remedy to address the Purchaser’s changed circumstances so that the changed circumstances will not affect in any way the Company’s ongoing and/or future reliance on an exemption under the Securities Act provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D.

 

3.2.                            Remedies. The Purchaser acknowledges that, at the discretion of the Company, its remedies may include, without limitation, the transfer or sale of the Purchaser’s SAFT. The Purchaser also acknowledges that the Company may periodically request assurance that the Purchaser has not become subject to a Disqualifying Event at any time, and the Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall understand and deem the failure by the Purchaser to respond in writing to any requests to be an affirmation and restatement of the representations, warranties and covenants in this provision.

  

4.                                      Tax Information.

 

4.1.                            Waiver of Privacy. The Purchaser certifies that the Purchaser has completed and submitted any required waiver of local privacy laws that could otherwise prevent disclosure of information to a Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates, the IRS or any other governmental authority for purposes of Chapter 3, Chapter 4 or Chapter 61 of the Code (including without limitation in connection with FATCA, as defined below) or any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of the FATCA (an “IGA”), and any other documentation required to establish an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding tax or to permit the Company to comply with information reporting requirements pursuant to Chapter 3, Chapter 4 or Chapter 61 of the Code (including, without limitation, in connection with FATCA or any IGA).

 

4.2.                            Updated Tax Forms. The Purchaser further certifies that the Purchaser will, within 30 days of the Purchaser’s receipt of notice that the Purchaser has been issued a SAFT, provide to the Company an IRS Form W-9 (as included in Part IV of this Purchase Agreement) or other applicable IRS Forms and any additional documentation required by the Company for purposes of satisfying the Company’s obligations under the Code.

 

4.3.                            Purchaser Obligations.

5.                                      Indemnification.

 

5.1.                            Indemnification. PLEASE READ THIS INDEMNIFICATION PROVISION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT LIMITS A PURCHASER’S ABILITY TO SEEK RELIEF FROM AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY. The Purchaser acknowledges that he, she or it understands the meaning and legal consequences of the representations and warranties contained in this Purchase Agreement, and except as otherwise agreed to in writing with the Company, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with any of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all loss, claim, damage, liability or expense whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) due to or arising out of or based upon (i) any inaccurate representation or warranty made by the Purchaser, or breach or failure by the Purchaser to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser in this Purchase Agreement (including the Purchaser Questionnaire and the Purchaser’s tax forms) or in any other document furnished by the Purchaser to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction, (ii) any action for securities, commodities, or money transmission law violations instituted by the Purchaser that is finally resolved by judgment against the Purchaser, or (iii) any action instituted by or on behalf of the Purchaser against an Indemnified Party that is finally resolved by judgment against the Purchaser or in favor of an Indemnified Party.

 

5.2.                            Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Indemnified Party is an intended third party beneficiary of this Purchase Agreement. The remedies provided in this Section 5 shall be cumulative and shall not preclude the assertion by any Indemnified Party of any other rights or the seeking of any other remedies against the Purchaser.

 

5.3.                            No Waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Purchase Agreement shall constitute a waiver by a Purchaser of any of his, her or its legal rights under applicable U.S. federal securities and commodities laws or any other laws whose applicability is not permitted to be contractually waived.

 

6.                                      Limitation of Liability. PLEASE READ SECTIONS 6.1, 6.2, AND 6.3 CAREFULLY. THESE PROVISIONS LIMIT THE SCOPE OF THE COMPANY’S LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF THE SAFT.

 

6.1.                            To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) in no event will the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages of any kind (including, but not limited to, where related to loss of revenue, income or profits, loss of use or data, or damages for business interruption) arising out of or in any way related to the sale of the SAFT or otherwise related to these terms, regardless of the form of action, whether based in contract, tort (including, but not limited to, simple negligence, whether active, passive or imputed), or any other legal or equitable theory (even if the party has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable); and (ii) in no event will the aggregate liability of the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates (jointly), whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence, whether active, passive or imputed), or other theory, arising out of or relating to these terms exceed the amount purchaser pays to the company for the SAFT.

  

6.2.                            The limitations set forth in section 6.1 will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud or intentional, willful or reckless misconduct of the Company.

 

6.3.                            Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the limitations of Section 6 may not apply to the Purchaser.

 

7.                                      Dispute Resolution & Arbitration. PLEASE READ SECTIONS 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6, 7.7, AND 7.8 CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE ONLY TO INDIVIDUALS LOCATED, RESIDENT OR DOMICILED IN THE UNITED STATES. IF THE PURCHASER IS LOCATED, RESIDENT OR DOMICILED IN THE UNITED STATES, THIS SECTION REQUIRES THE PURCHASER TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH THE COMPANY AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH A PURCHASER CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM THE COMPANY.

 

7.1.                            Binding Arbitration. Except for any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, “Disputes”) in which either party seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, the Purchaser and the Company (i) waive the Purchaser’s and the Company’s respective rights to have any and all Disputes arising from or related to the terms of the Purchase Agreement or Offering Materials (the “Terms”) resolved in a court, and (ii) waive the Purchaser’s and the Company’s respective rights to a jury trial. Instead, the Purchaser and the Company will arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).

 

7.2.                            No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions, or Representative Actions. Any Dispute arising out of or related to the Terms is personal to the Purchaser and the Company and will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. There will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.

 

7.3.                            Federal Arbitration Act. The Terms affect interstate commerce and the enforceability of this section 7 will be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the federal arbitration act, 9 U.S.C.. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 

7.4.                            Notice. Each party will notify the other party in writing of any Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to the Company shall be sent by email to the company at cmbasile@gibfbp.com . Notice to the Purchaser shall be by email to the then-current email address in the Purchaser’s account. The Purchaser’s notice must include (i) the Purchaser’s name, postal address, email address, and telephone number, (ii) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (iii) the specific relief that the Purchaser is seeking. If the Purchaser and the Company cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either the Purchaser or the Company may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section 7, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in Section 7.1, file a claim in court.

  

7.5.                            Process. Any arbitration will occur in Delaware. Arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are hereby incorporated by reference. The state and federal courts located in Delaware will have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. The Purchaser may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county where the Purchaser resides if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

 

7.6.                            Authority of Arbitrator. As limited by the FAA, the Terms and the applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have (i) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitrable, and (ii) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by the Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct 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.

 

7.7.                            Rules of JAMS. The rules of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by the Terms, the Purchaser either (i) acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser has read and understands the rules of JAMS, or (ii) waives its opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

 

7.8.                            Severability of Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Provisions. If any term, clause or provision of Section 7 is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law, and all other terms, clauses and provisions of Section 7 will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth in Section 7.2 are severable from the other provisions of the Terms and will remain valid and enforceable, except as prohibited by applicable law.

 

8.                                      Miscellaneous.

 

8.1.                            Notices and Electronic Delivery; Privacy Policy.

(b)                                 The Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates will send emails to the email address that the Purchaser has included on the Purchaser Questionnaire.

The Purchaser also acknowledges that an email from the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates may be accessed by recipients other than the Purchaser and may be interfered with, may contain computer viruses or other defects and may not be successfully replicated on other systems.

 

(f)                                   The Purchaser understands that if it has any doubts about the authenticity of an email purportedly sent by the Company and their respective officers, directors, principals, members, employees, agents, and other affiliates, the Purchaser should contact the purported sender immediately.

The Purchaser agrees that when the Purchaser clicks on an “I Agree,” “I Consent,” or other similarly worded button or entry field with its mouse, keystroke or other device, its agreement or consent will be legally binding and enforceable against it and will be the legal equivalent of the Purchaser’s handwritten signature on an agreement that is printed on paper.
