You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the porting of telephone or facsimile numbers into or out of an account requires your provision of specific and detailed information to LN and/or third parties (including without limitation other services providers) and completion of certain steps and procedures, as well as third parties’ completion of certain steps; and (ii) numbers may not be ported into or out of an account unless and until you are able to provide certain specific information that matches other information on record with LN or other services providers. For these and other reasons, the completion of any number port request and the timing of and date by which any such request may be completed depend on a number of factors outside of LN’s control, including without limitation the acts and omissions of both you and third parties, including without limitation other services providers. Customer acknowledges LN may use additional security measures to protect Customer’s phone numbers, and Customer agrees to cooperate with LN’s number porting processes and procedures.

“slamming” or the porting out of any telephone or facsimile number or change or attempt to change any party’s telephony service provider without first obtaining the proper, requisite consents and authorizations; or (iii) violate contractual or other obligations to service providers or other third parties.

6.7.3.7  Release of Numbers. You acknowledge that in the event of account termination or cancellation, all telephone numbers associated with your account, which have not previously been ported to another provider, may be released. Similarly, the cancellation of individual lines may result in the release of the related numbers if those numbers have not previously been ported to another provider. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for working with a third-party provider to port out any numbers prior to termination or cancellation of your account or Services, or any individual line.

7.2               Review of Plan Use and Unlimited Voice Services. You acknowledge that: (a) any reference made to “unlimited” minutes or features refers to our practice not to charge for the Services on a per-minute or per-use basis when use is reasonable; and (b) that we do not offer “unlimited” plans for telemarketing, call center operations, fax spamming, or other activities that use an extraordinary amount of connectivity to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). We may limit PSTN connectivity, impose per-minute charges for excessive use, or terminate this agreement if we determine that your average per-user PSTN connectivity exceeds the normal usage patterns, as determined by LN in its sole discretion. LN reserves the right to review usage of unlimited plans to ensure that Customer is using the Services in accordance with this VoIP Services Agreement, and not using unlimited Services in violation of any provision hereof or for any purpose other than permitted under this VoIP Services Agreement and the applicable plan. In addition to other uses prohibited by this Section 7, unlimited voice services may not be used for monitoring services, data transmissions, transmission of broadcasts, transmission of recorded material, or other connections which do not consist of uninterrupted interactive dialog between parties. If LN finds that you are using unlimited voice services for any purposes other than uninterrupted dialog between parties, LN may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate Customer’s Service or change Customer’s plan to one with no unlimited usage components. LN will provide notice to Customer prior to taking such action, and Customer may terminate the VoIP Services Agreement, provided, however, that Customer shall not be entitled to a refund of any kind.

7.3               Legal Compliance. You agree to use the Service in a manner that complies with all applicable federal and state laws, including, but not limited to laws governing the use of call recording, call monitoring, call barging, and telemarketing. LN does not dispense legal advice or provide Customer with any information regarding the legality of using the Service. You may be subject to civil or criminal prosecution for the unlawful use of Service. Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless LN from and against any claims that arise out of Customer’s failure to comply with applicable state and federal laws. Customer shall consult its own attorney for legal advice.

7.4               Message Blaster. Your use of the Services for your marketing activities shall comply with all applicable laws, and with this Section 7.4.

7.4.1        You represent and warrant that the owners of the phone numbers you initiate messages to through the LN Services have consented or otherwise opted-in to the receipt of such messages and broadcasts as required by applicable laws. You agree to include clear opt-out/unsubscribe information on your messages or broadcasts when required to do so by any applicable law or regulation, including without limitation the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 (CAN-SPAM Act), and the regulations of the FCC promulgated thereunder from time to time; and shall otherwise adhere to the Consumer Best Practices Guidelines promulgated by the Mobile Marketing Association, if and as applicable.

You are solely responsible for all acts or omissions that occur under your account, including without limitation the content of the messages and broadcasts that you create and initiate through the LN Services. You are ultimately responsible to make your own informed decisions regarding your messages, broadcasts, and campaigns. You are solely responsible for obtaining any rights or licenses to any data, including without limitation sound files, for inclusion in any outbound messages, broadcasts, and campaigns.

7.5.3        Update of Security Features. You acknowledge that some Services’ security features may require activation or installation of software or firmware updates, and software may be de-activated or uninstalled.

You acknowledge and agree that if you decide not to install updates, this may result in the functionality of the Services to be diminished and unstable or termination of this VoIP Services Agreement.

7.5.4        Account and End User Management. You acknowledge and agree that End Users you designate as account administrators may have the ability to make purchases and enter into transactions on your behalf and/or to perform acts related to your Services, or your Account, including any individual line or extension or ancillary services, that may significantly affect you or the operation of your Services, including without limitation adding, removing, or modifying numbers or extensions assigned to an Account; payment method(s); making changes to software or hardware; adding, removing, or modifying ancillary services; and/or modifying settings. You are responsible for any such changes made to your account. You agree to maintain sole and exclusive control over your Services or account at all times and to ensure that all account rights, permissions, and settings, and all use and usage, are effectively managed as necessary to prevent any unauthorized access to, use or usage of, or transaction or activity through or relating to your Services. You further acknowledge and agree that you will be responsible for all charges incurred by or under the credentials of your Account administrators.

7.6               For calls originated by Customer or any of its End Users, or by devices or numbers assigned to Customer or its End Users, or for calls that transit any network facilities owned, controlled or utilized by Customer for termination on or through LN’s Services, Customer agrees that if it receives a request from (i) a traceback administrator authorized by the US Telecom Industry Traceback Group (ITG), (ii)

LN, or (iii) any applicable law enforcement or regulatory authority (a “Traceback Requestor”) for information about robocalls that have been sent to a downstream provider or received by a consumer (a “Traceback Request”), Customer will promptly respond to the Traceback Request in good faith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer shall identify the immediately preceding source of the calls or numbers subject to the Traceback Request, if any, and provide other relevant information relevant to the determination of any immediately preceding source, and, to the extent possible, shall further identify any other upstream providers in the call’s path. Customer agrees to share this information without requiring a subpoena or other formal demand or request.

7.7               Customer is solely responsible for all content transmitted by or to Customer and/or its End Users using the Services, including without limitation with regard to third party intellectual property rights and the compliance of such content with all applicable laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer is solely responsible for its or its End Users transmission, disclosure, collection and/or safeguarding of any person’s personal information contained in any such content, as more fully set forth in LN’s Privacy Policy.

7.8               LN reserves the right to take any and all actions in LN’s sole discretion, whether at law or in equity, in response to violations of this section or as otherwise believed by LN, in its sole discretion, to be required to preserve the integrity of LN’s network and its Services, including, without limitation: (i) suspension or termination of the Services, including charging Customer any applicable rates and cancellation or termination fees, (ii) cooperation with law enforcement, (iii) providing requested information to third parties who have informed LN that they have been harmed by a Customer’s failure to abide by this Policy, and (iv) referral of violations of this

Section 7 to appropriate law enforcement agencies or other appropriate governmental authorities. LN’s failure to take action shall not be deemed a waiver of this right. LN’s exercise of its rights under this section shall not create a cause of action in any Customer or End User, nor shall LN have any liability for its actions, or the actions of other carriers or service providers taken to protect their respective networks or compliance with applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, LN shall have no liability to Customer for the level of attestation assigned by LN pursuant to the TRACED Act and FCC implementing rules to calls to or from Customer, nor shall LN be liable for the refusal of any other carrier or service provider to validate, transmit or terminate any call based on such carrier’s or service provider’s assessment of such calls or the attestation level assigned thereto.

8. Term. Unless otherwise agreed by LN in writing, the Term of your VoIP Services Agreement will continue in accordance with subsection 8.2.

8.1               The “Term” of this VoIP Services Agreement begins on the earlier date of: (a) when your signed Customer Service Order is submitted, unless LN rejects such Customer Service Order in accordance with Section 6.1 of this VoIP Services Agreement; (b) when your first payment is processed, or (c) when you start(ed) using the Services. The Term shall continue for the greater of: (i) the period of time set forth in your Customer Service Order; (ii) for the period of time otherwise mutually agreed upon in writing by you and LN; (iii) if not otherwise specified or agreed to, month-to-month, indefinitely, until terminated; or (iv) for as long as you access and use the Services, notwithstanding an otherwise specified expiration or termination date.

8.2               If a Customer Service Order, or any related agreement including an LN partner agreement, has a stated Term other than month-to-month, the Term of Customer’s Service shall automatically renew for a period equal to the initial term at the end of each term, unless either party provides written notice of cancellation to the other no less than 30 days prior to the end of the then-current Term. VoIP Services Agreements with a month-to-month Term may be canceled at any time by either party, upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the other.

9. Cancellation of Services; Termination. 

9.1               Termination by LN. LN may terminate or suspend this VoIP Services Agreement immediately if LN determines, in its sole discretion, that you have violated any provision of Section 7, or may terminate this VoIP Services Agreement upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice if you violate any other terms of this VoIP Services Agreement and fail to cure the violation within such ten (10) days. LN may also terminate this VoIP Services Agreement for any other reason whatsoever by providing you with 30 days’ prior written notice of such termination. Subscription Service Fees and Usage Fees will continue to accrue through the termination date.

9.2               Termination by Customer. You may terminate this VoIP Services Agreement or terminate or reduce any Services: (a) pursuant to the terms specified in this VoIP Services Agreement or as otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by the parties hereto; or (b) if neither the Customer Service Order nor any other written instrument executed by LN specifies a procedure for termination, by providing LN 30 days’ prior written notice. Customer must provide written noticefor the cancellation of the Services. If Customer wishes to cancel a previously submitted termination notice, the 30-day notice period must be adhered to with any subsequent termination notices. In the event that Customer terminates this VoIP Services Agreement or cancels a Service that is subject to a defined Term other than monthto-month, or reduces the volume of any such Service (including without limitation by reducing the number of activated devices or telephone numbers) agreed in a Customer Service Order, then Customer will be subject to termination fees as outlined in the Customer Service Order, which shall not be less than the monthly recurring charges (or the difference in monthly recurring charges, in the event of a Service reduction) for all affected Services and related Equipment prior to such termination or reduction, multiplied by the number of months remaining in the thencurrent Term. Customer shall also be responsible for returning any Equipment, including Equipment no longer used due to a reduction in Services, in accordance with the Equipment Addendum.

9.3               No Refund. Upon termination of this VoIP Services Agreement for any reason, or any reduction of Services pursuant to Section 9.2, Customer shall not be entitled to a refund of any prepaid or other fees. Customer is responsible for all charges through the effective termination date, including the notice period and, without limitation, any unbilled charges such as usage.

9.4               Survival. Upon termination of this VoIP Services Agreement, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, shall survive such termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, (i) your representations and warranties, indemnification obligations, and use restrictions; and (ii) LN’s limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, indemnification obligations, and intellectual property rights.

9.5               Customer Obligations Upon Termination. Customer agrees that upon Termination of this VoIP Services Agreement:

1. You shall be responsible for payment in full for Services through the end of the month of the effective date of termination. You shall pay LN any amounts owed for Services prior to termination within three (3) business days of LN’s final invoice, and you agree that LN may charge your payment method on file at the end of such three-day period. Subscription Service Fees will not be prorated.
2. If applicable, you must immediately notify LN of all Customer Premises and other premises where LN Equipment and materials are stored. You shall permit LN, its employees, agents, contractors, or representatives to access your Customer Premises and other premises during regular business hours in order to remove all Equipment and other materials furnished by LN, or upon LN’s request and in its discretion, you agree to return all Equipment and materials furnished by LN to a location specified by LN using a reliable shipping method. You shall be responsible for all LN Equipment and materials that are not received by LN within a reasonable period of time post-termination, and LN may deem you to have purchased the same and charge you in accordance with the Equipment Addendum and this VoIP Services Agreement.
3. You are solely responsible for notifying LN of any and all requests to port out billable telephone numbers (also referred as “DIDs”) to a different service provider, whether port out options are known or unknown by you. You remain solely responsible for all billable charges until such time that port outs have been completed. You shall retain ownership of any purchased local or toll-free numbers and any existing numbers that were originally ported over to LN from a different service provider.
4. Service Level VoIP Services Agreement. 

10.1           Service Guarantee. LN guarantees that our Services will be available for its primary intended use 99.99% of the time in any given monthly billing period, excluding certain Exceptions as defined below. This guarantee shall include the ability to make and receive calls only and excludes the functioning of any other ancillary features offered by LN. If LN fails to meet this service level guarantee, Customer shall be eligible for credit. Credits will be calculated as a percentage of the fees incurred over the billing period affected by the service outage and will be applied at the end of the billing cycle. Credits shall be calculated at three percent (3%) of the monthly Subscription Service Fee for the affected Service each hour of downtime, up to 100% of the total fees for the affected Service billed in the affected billing period. To obtain credit, Customer must request a credit in writing from LN within fifteen (15) days of the service outage. Credits shall be applied against future fees payable by Customer for the Service (the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.1, collectively, the “Service Guarantee”). This Service Guarantee is your sole and exclusive remedy for downtime in Services. For the purposes of the Service

Guarantee, the following “Exceptions” are not eligible for service credits: (a) any act or omission by Customer or any End User; (b) issues with Customer’s or its End User’s Internet connectivity; (c) a Force Majeure event; (d) failure, interruption, outage, or other problem with any software, hardware, system, network, facility, server, or similar equipment and programming not supplied by LN; (e) Scheduled Maintenance as outlined in Section 10.2; (f) issues, bugs, or delays caused by thirdparty applications, services, or other components; (g) the disabling, suspension, or termination of the Services by LN in response to Customer’s failure to comply with this VoIP Services Agreement; and (h) third-party interference with or attacks upon the Services or the networks used to provide them.

10.2           Maintenance and Other Planned Service Outages. LN will periodically perform routine system maintenance and/or system updates to ensure we are running the most reliable and secure software possible (“Scheduled Maintenance”). During periods of Scheduled Maintenance, it will be necessary to take the Service offline. LN will return services as quickly as possible and typical Scheduled Maintenance is completed within 15 minutes. LN will endeavor to perform Scheduled Maintenance after normal business hours (generally, 10PM EST – 5AM EST). LN will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Customer one or two days in advance of performing Scheduled Maintenance, so you can prepare for the planned service outage.

10.3           Service Level and Support Limitation of Liability. LN shall not be liable or held responsible for any disruption in Service due to (i) Internet connectivity issues with Customer’s Internet Service Provider (ISP); (ii) disruption in Service related to Customer’s error, misuse, or failure to comply with this VoIP Services Agreement; (iii) outage due to a previous service provider’s failure to properly port over number(s) to LN; (iv) power outage; or (v) a Force Majeure event. LN may provide implementation, configuration, or similar Services support, either remotely or on-premise. Use of such Services by Customer is at Customer’s sole option and risk. LN shall not be liable to Customer for any damages, loss, or liability arising out of or in connection with LN’s implementation; configuration; firewall, router, or device configuration and setup; or similar implementation and Services support. 11. Personal Information, Privacy Statement and Data.

11.1  Your personal information is governed by the LN Privacy Policy available from time to time at https://www.libermannet.com/. The LN Privacy Policy is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this VoIP Services Agreement by this reference.

11.2  Customer Proprietary Network Information.

11.2.1    In the normal course of providing services to its users and customers, LN collects and maintains certain customer proprietary network information (“CPNI”) typical to the industry. CPNI includes the types of telecommunications and interconnected VoIP services Customer currently purchases or subscribes to, how Customer uses those services (for example, Customer’s calling records), and billing information related to those services. Customer’s LN telephone number(s), name, address do not constitute CPNI.

11.2.2    LN does not sell, trade, or otherwise share Customer’s CPNI with anyone outside of LN and those parties authorized to represent LN to offer the Services or to perform functions on LN’s behalf related to the Services, except as the law may require, or Customer may authorize. Federal law generally permits LN to use CPNI in its provision of the Services Customer purchases or subscribes to, including billing and collections for those Services. LN may also use or disclose Customer CPNI for legal or regulatory reasons such as to respond to a court order, to investigate fraud, to protect LN’s rights or property, to protect against the unlawful use of

LN’s services, or to protect other users. Customer acknowledges and agrees to such uses for itself and its End Users. In the event that LN consents to the Customer’s resale of any Services, Customer shall ensure that it informs its customers or subscribers of LN’s use and disclosure of CPNI in accordance with this Section.

11.2.3    Customer may elect to prohibit LN’s use of Customer’s CPNI to market services other than services of the same type that Customer already purchases from LN by providing LN with Customer’s “opt-out” notice within thirty (30) calendar days of Customer’s Service commencement via [email protected]. If Customer fails to do so within such timeframe, Customer will be deemed to have given LN consent to use Customer’s CPNI to market services other than services of the same type that Customer already purchases from LN. Customer acknowledges and agrees that such communications may be directed to one or more Customer End Users, and Customer agrees that it will provide its End Users with notice that they may receive such marketing communications and instructions as to how to opt out. Restricting LN’s use of Customer CPNI will not affect LN’s provision of any Service, nor will it necessarily eliminate all types of LN marketing. In the event that LN consents (in its sole and absolute discretion) to Customer’s resale of the Services, Customer shall provide notice to its customers or subscribers that Customer will disclose or otherwise permit LN to access such customers’ or subscribers’ CPNI for the provision of the purpose of marketing communications-related services; provide a method for such customers or subscribers to opt out; and provide LN with current information concerning the “opt out” status of such customers or subscribers.

11.3  Other Disclosures of Information. Customer agrees that information concerning it, its End Users, locations, assigned telephone numbers and other identifying information, which may or may not constitute CPNI, may be disclosed to public safety answering points or other emergency call takers in connection with the completion of 911 calls, or to law enforcement or other governmental authorities as required by applicable law, regulation, court or administrative order, subpoena, warrant or other legal process. LN shall have no liability to Customer, any End User or any other party using the Services under Customer’s Account for any such disclosure.

11.4  Data.

11.4.1    You acknowledge and agree that: (i) LN and its affiliates shall have no obligation to store, retain, back-up, or ensure the availability of any stored Customer personal or account information; (ii) to the extent that you wish to retain any account data or other information relating to your services, an account, or the use thereof, you shall ensure that such information is downloaded, saved, and/or backed-up outside of your Account, as necessary or appropriate for your and/or the End Users’ purposes; (iii) you shall not rely on your Services or account as a repository for or means by which to retain, store, or back-up account data or any other data, information, or materials; (iv) LN may delete or purge any and all copies and versions of any stored Customer personal or account data or other data at any time, without notice, including without limitation after you delete any such information from an account or after termination of this VoIP Services Agreement or closure of an account; and (v) LN may, in its sole discretion and option and without notice, implement reasonable limits as to the size or duration of storage of account data, including, but not limited to, call recordings, voicemail and call or communication detail records.

11.4.2    You acknowledge and agree that the your Services do not include the performance of any of the following tasks or work by LN, and in no event shall LN be obligated under this VoIP Services Agreement to perform any of the following tasks or work: (i) the investigation, access, correction, alteration, gathering, compilation, review, verification, or production of any account data, personal information, or any other records, documents, information, or evidence related to you or your Services or transmitted, received, or stored through an account; (ii) the provision of legal or other advice; or (iii) the provision of assistance, cooperation, or information beyond that which is directly and specifically related to LN’s fulfillment of its obligations under this VoIP Services Agreement or pursuant to applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, except as provided in this VoIP Services Agreement or required by Law, LN is not obligated to: (i) determine, prove, or disprove any fact or claim; (ii) pursue or defend against any claim, allegation, action, lawsuit, demand, or proceeding; (iii) substantiate any party’s compliance with any Law or legal process; (iv) respond to or comply with any request or demand; (v) identify any party; or (vi) conduct any surveillance.

11.4.3    You acknowledge and agree that: (i) any stored communications, stored personal information or account data, or other information or materials that you export will not be under LN’s control and will not be subject to or protected by LN’s security controls; (ii) linking or integrating your Services or accounts(s) to or with any external service, environment, account or repository constitutes such exportation and LN shall have no responsibility for, and makes no representation or warranty regarding, the security, privacy, or functionality of any such linked or integrated external service, environment, account or repository. You and your End Users, as applicable, shall comply with all applicable Law relating to the use, disclosure, access, or export of data from your account(s).

11.5 You hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless LN from and against any and all liability relating to or arising from its acts or omissions in accordance with this Section 11 to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

12. Emergency 911 Services. Access to 911 services is governed by the E911 Policy provided to you, as the same may be amended from time to time, which is incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof. The E911 Policy contains important information regarding limitations on 911 service using the Services, and limits LN’s liability to you.
13. Indemnification. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LN, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents, and service providers from any and all third party claims, liability, damages and/or costs (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to: (a) your use of the Services; (b) your breach or other violation of this VoIP Services Agreement; (c) any actual or alleged infringement or violation by you, or any other user of your account, of any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity; (d) your actual or alleged violation of applicable law; and (e) all unauthorized use of, access to or theft of Customer’s or its users’ data, passwords or equipment, or of any data provided to Customer by third parties, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of LN.
14. Warranty Disclaimer and General Limitation of Liability.

14.1 NO WARRANTIES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE HEREIN, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND LN, ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS (COLLECTIVELY, “LN PARTIES”) EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY OF

MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, THE LN PARTIES MAKE NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION REGARDING THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES, REGARDING THE

ACCURACY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICES, OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET ANY

USER’S REQUIREMENTS, OR BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR ERROR FREE. USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. ANY MATERIAL OR DATA TRANSMITTED, DOWNLOADED, OR OTHERWISE SENT OR OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICES, IS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK. YOU WILL BE SOLELY

RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LIABILITY INCURRED OR DAMAGE TO YOU

RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER

MATERIALS OR WORK PERFORMED OR PROVIDED BY LN IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE ENTIRE RISK ARISING OUT OF USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER MATERIALS OR WORK PERFORMED OR PROVIDED BY LN IN CONNECTION THEREWITH REMAINS WITH YOU. LN DOES NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR RETENTION OF ANY USER INFORMATION, DATA, COMMUNICATIONS, OR OTHER CONTENT SHARED BETWEEN USERS, AND EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LN MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARDING, OR ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR, THE SECURITY OF SUCH INFORMATION, DATA, COMMUNICATIONS OR OTHER CONTENT. LN CANNOT GUARANTEE AND DOES NOT PROMISE ANY SPECIFIC RESULTS FROM USE OF THE SERVICES.

14.2   LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LN

PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS OR DAMAGE) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, ANY OTHER MATERIALS OR WORK PERFORMED OR PROVIDED BY LN IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, OR THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL OR OTHER SUPPORT SERVICES, WHETHER ARISING IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF THE LN PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE LN PARTIES’ MAXIMUM CUMULATIVE LIABILITY AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE SERVICES (IF ANY) IN THE MONTH OF THE EVENT OR

CIRCUMSTANCES GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIMS. Because some states and jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability, the above limitation may not apply to you.

15. Additional Provisions.

15.1           Governing Law. This VoIP Services Agreement, all matters related to the Services, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New Jersey or any other jurisdiction). Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, this VoIP Services Agreement or the Services shall be subject to arbitration in accordance with Section 15.2 hereof. Any proceeding which may be instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction, including proceedings pursuant to Section 15.3 or suits to enforce the arbitrator’s award, shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of New Jersey, although LN retains the right to bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of this VoIP Services Agreement in your country of residence or any other relevant country. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by the federal and state courts in and for the State of New Jersey, and to venue in such courts.

15.2           Arbitration. Subject to Section 15.3, all disputes arising out of or relating to this VoIP Services Agreement, including without limitation those regarding the formation, interpretation, breach or termination hereof, or any issue regarding whether a dispute is subject to arbitration hereunder, that cannot be settled by good faith negotiation between the parties within a reasonable period of time, will be conclusively determined by a final and binding arbitration proceeding to take place in the State of New Jersey. Such proceeding will be conducted in English and administered by JAMS pursuant to the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect, or in the event one of the parties is located outside of the United States, pursuant to the JAMS International Arbitration Rules then in effect, before a panel of one arbitrator chosen in accordance with such rules. The arbitrator will not award punitive or exemplary damages, and will not have the authority to limit, expand or otherwise modify the terms of the VoIP Services Agreement. The ruling by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties or any of their assets. The parties will evenly split the cost of the arbitrator’s fees, but each party will bear their own attorneys’ fees and other costs associated with the arbitration except as provided in Section 15.4 hereof. The parties agree that this arbitration provision may be enforced by injunction or other equitable order, and no bond or security of any kind will be required with respect to any such injunction or order. The parties, their representatives, other participants and the arbitrator will hold the existence, content and result of arbitration in confidence.

15.3           Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this Section will be construed to preclude either party from seeking provisional remedies, including but not limited to temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, from any court of competent jurisdiction in order to protect its rights pending arbitration.

15.4           Costs of Enforcement. In the event that either party hereto brings an action with respect to any dispute arising hereunder, any alleged breach of the terms hereof, or the enforcement of the provisions and restrictions thereof, the substantially prevailing party in such action shall be awarded all reasonable costs and expenses incurred thereby, including reasonable attorneys’ and other legal fees and costs, whether prior to the formal initiation of such action, prior to trial, at trial, or on appeal and for post-judgment proceedings.

15.5           Limitation on Time to File Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION HEREUNDER, THAT YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM OR DISPUTE ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

15.6           Notices. All notices and other communications pursuant to this VoIP Services Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent by facsimile or email transmission, sent by nationally-recognized overnight courier or mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to the LN’s address set forth below, to Customer at Customer’s address as set forth in the Customer Service Order, or to such other address as a party to whom notice is to be given may have furnished to the other party hereto in writing in accordance herewith. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been delivered and received (a) in the case of personal delivery, on the date of such delivery, (b) in the case of facsimile or email transmission, on the date sent if either (i) confirmation of receipt is received or (ii) such notice is promptly mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), (c) in the case of a nationallyrecognized overnight courier in circumstances under which such courier guarantees next business day delivery, on the next business day after the date sent, and (d) in the case of mailing, on the third business day following that on which the piece of mail containing such communication is posted.

15.7           Interpretation. The headings in the sections and subsections of this VoIP Services Agreement are inserted for convenience only and in no way alter, amend, modify, limit or restrict the interpretation of this VoIP Services Agreement or the contractual obligations of the parties hereto. For purposes of this VoIP Services Agreement, the word “including”, and correlative terms shall mean inclusion without limitation, and the word “or” is not exclusive.

15.8           Severability. No waiver by LN of any term or condition set out in this VoIP Services Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of LN to assert a right or provision under this VoIP Services Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of this VoIP Services Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the VoIP Services Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

15.9           Equitable Relief. You acknowledge that use of the Services contrary to this VoIP Services Agreement, or any transfer, sublicensing, copying or disclosure of information or materials related to the Services, may cause irreparable injury to LN, its affiliates, service providers, and agents. You hereby acknowledge and agree that LN, its affiliates, service providers, and agents are entitled to seek equitable relief, without posting bond or other security, including, but not limited to, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, in the event that you or a user of your account violates the terms of this VoIP Services Agreement.

15.10       Enhanced Service Provider Notice. LN does not directly provide Customer with voice origination and termination services. Voice connections with the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) are provided by wholesale service providers.

15.11       Assignment. LN may assign its rights and obligations under this VoIP Services Agreement to any party without the consent of Customer and may use a third-party service provider to provide any of the Services provided under this VoIP Services Agreement. Customer may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations under this VoIP Services Agreement without LN’s prior written consent.

15.12       VoIP Services Agreement and Other Terms. This VoIP Services Agreement, including the Customer Service Order, the E911 Policy, the Equipment Addendum (if applicable), and all policies and agreements referenced herein and the Master Services Agreement, constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto regarding its subject matter for the Services hereunder. No other representation, warranty, term, or condition, other than as expressly set forth in this VoIP Services Agreement and the Master Services Agreement, shall be binding upon LN. In the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of this VoIP Services Agreement and those of any addendum, Customer Service Order, the Master Services Agreement or other document, agreement, or policy, or prior service terms, the Master Services Agreement shall control and Customer further hereby agrees that such conflict shall be resolved by LN, in its sole discretion, and LN is hereby appointed and permitted by Customer to determine the appropriate governing terms and/or document that shall control in the event of any conflicting or ambiguous terms.
