      3. Forward each Marketplace Order to the relevant Restaurant Merchant Store; and

      1. Provide Clubfeast with the Restaurant Merchant’s dishes and their agreed upon price;

      7. Notify Clubfeast of any changes to the availability, pricing, description, or other characteristics of the Restaurant Merchant Products;

      8.

      11. On an ongoing basis, review and confirm the transactions, fees and charges on orders via the Restaurant Merchant Portal or via email as appropriate, and promptly communicate to Clubfeast any inaccuracies.

  4. Deductions from Restaurant Partners. When customers send feedback to Clubfeast regarding late, incorrect, or not-total items, Clubfeast may communicate this feedback to the Restaurant Partners if the information provided helps to improve the Restaurant Partner Operations or the relationship between Restaurant Partners and Clubfeast. Based on the feedback, if items are reported missing from the delivery order, meals are prepared without the entire portion, meals are late, or Clubfeast determines any other fault of the Restaurant Partner, Clubfeast may refund or compensate customers and deduct such refunds/compensations to customers from Restaurant Partners Payment automatically.

  5. Order Equipment. With respect to the Clubfeast Marketplace, Restaurant Merchant will install any equipment reasonably required by Clubfeast for Restaurant Merchant to receive and process Orders (including, without limitation, a tablet, fax machine, or other automated, electronic means of receiving Orders) (“Order Equipment”). If any Order Equipment is provided by Clubfeast, Restaurant Merchant will pay Clubfeast an Order Equipment Fee, as set forth in the Sign-Up Sheet, in exchange for the right to use the Order Equipment to access the Clubfeast Platform in order to receive, process, and accept Marketplace Orders. Any Order Equipment provided by Clubfeast will remain Clubfeast’s sole property and may be used solely for purposes related to fulfilling Restaurant Merchant’s responsibilities under this Agreement. Restaurant Merchant will inspect all hardware and shall notify Clubfeast in writing if any Order Equipment is missing or was damaged as soon as practicable after discovering such damage. Clubfeast may restrict or rescind Restaurant Merchant’s right to use the Clubfeast Platform at any time. Restaurant Merchant will be responsible for any damage to or loss of any Order Equipment provided by Clubfeast (excluding ordinary wear and tear), which will be promptly reimbursed by Restaurant Merchant (at the replacement cost thereof). Clubfeast may recover the replacement cost of damaged or lost Order Equipment by deducting such amount from weekly payments.

    1. Clubfeast Marketplace. Clubfeast will pay for Marketplace fulfilled by Restaurant Merchant on a weekly basis, consistently each week, subject to change with at least 10 days' notice to Restaurant Merchants by email or service notification.

    2. If Restaurant Merchant has opted for Clubfeast to provide Order Equipment, Clubfeast will also deduct a weekly Order Equipment Fee, as set forth on the Sign-Up Sheet, in exchange for the Restaurant Merchant’s right to use the Order Equipment to access the Clubfeast Platform in order to receive, process, and accept Orders. Restaurant Merchant agrees Clubfeast may charge the customer fees, including but not limited to a Delivery Fee, Service Fee, Surcharge Fee, and Small Order Fee where applicable in Clubfeast's sole discretion. Restaurant Merchant shall be responsible for all taxes, duties, and other governmental charges on the sale of Restaurant Merchant Products and for remitting such taxes, duties, and other governmental charges to the appropriate authorities. In the event that Restaurant Merchant raises the price for a menu item, Clubfeast shall not be required to remit the higher price until 20 business days after receiving formal notice and complete pricing details from the Restaurant Merchant. Furthermore, Clubfeast is expressly absolved from any obligation to remit the new pricing to orders already confirmed by the client and accurately reflected in the restaurant portal. This provision applies irrevocably and without exception.

    3. To the extent that a third-party provider provides services to Restaurant Merchant via the Platform (for example, a middleware provider) and charges fees to Clubfeast, Clubfeast may pass through such third party’s fees to Restaurant Merchant.

    4. In some jurisdictions in the United States, Clubfeast may be required to collect sales, use, or similar taxes from the Customer and remit such taxes directly to the tax authority. In such jurisdictions, Clubfeast will inform Restaurant Merchant that Clubfeast will remit Collected Taxes to the tax authority and Clubfeast will be relieved of any responsibility to remit such Collected Taxes to Restaurant Merchant.

    5. Restaurant Merchant agrees, on an ongoing basis, to review and confirm its transactions, fees and charges on orders and invoices and via the Restaurant Merchant Portal, and to promptly communicate to Clubfeast in writing any claimed inaccuracies, so that Clubfeast has the prompt opportunity to address and resolve any issues and so such issues do not persist, which Clubfeast and Restaurant Merchant agree is in the best interests of both parties and their commercial relationship. Restaurant Merchant agrees to communicate to Clubfeast any disagreement, non-conformity or any issue with any transaction, fee, charge or order within 60 days of the transaction, fee or order. Restaurant Merchant shall be deemed to have acquiesced in and ratified, and to have waived any claim or objection regarding, each transaction, fee, charge and order if Restaurant Merchant does not communicate a written claim or objection to Clubfeast regarding such transaction, fee, charge or order within such 60-day period.

    6. Restaurant Merchant agrees that Restaurant Merchant holds title to the goods or products that Restaurant Merchant provides through the Platform until the goods are picked up from Restaurant Merchant, and that title passes from the Restaurant Merchant to the customer upon pickup at the Restaurant Merchant’s location. Restaurant Merchant agrees that neither the Clubfeast Delivery Partner nor Clubfeast holds title to or acquires any ownership interest in any goods or products that Restaurant Merchant prepares or provides through the Platform.

  7. Payment Processing. Payment processing services for Restaurant Merchants on the Clubfeast Marketplace are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Services Agreement. By agreeing to these Terms, Restaurant Merchant agrees to be bound by the Stripe Connected Account Agreement and the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of Clubfeast enabling payment processing services through Stripe, Restaurant Merchant agrees to provide Clubfeast accurate and complete information about Restaurant Merchant’s representative and its business, and Restaurant Merchant authorizes Clubfeast to share it and transaction information related to Restaurant Merchant’s use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

  17. Dispute Resolution. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH Clubfeast AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. THIS SECTION 19 OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE REFERRED TO AS THE “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”.

    1. Scope of Arbitration Agreement. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this contract, including the breach, termination or validity thereof, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or Clubfeast may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). Clubfeast and Restaurant Merchant agree that, because both are business entities that mutually benefit from streamlined and confidential resolution, this Arbitration Agreement shall apply to all disputes arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or the relationship between the parties and their personnel. In that regard, this Arbitration Agreement shall be binding upon and enforceable by not only the parties, but also their affiliates, and their owners, officers, directors, managers and employees. This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of this Agreement. CASES HAVE BEEN FILED AGAINST Clubfeast—AND OTHERS MAY BE FILED IN THE FUTURE—THAT ATTEMPT TO ASSERT CLASS ACTION CLAIMS, AND BY ACCEPTING THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT YOU ELECT NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN SUCH CASES. IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH Clubfeast, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVER MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF IN ANY SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUIT. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST Clubfeast IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR.

    2. Arbitration Rules and Forum. This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act in all respects. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to Clubfeast’s registered agent. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its rules and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available athttp://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available athttp://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com (under the Rules/Clauses tab) or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitration fees will be governed by JAMS’s rules. In addition, Clubfeast will reimburse all such JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for claims with an amount in controversy totaling less than $10,000. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, video conference, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location.

    3. Arbitrator Powers. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Clubfeast. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other proceedings or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and this Agreement (including this Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator will issue a written statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which any award (or decision not to render an award) is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding on you and Clubfeast.

    4. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND Clubfeast WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and Clubfeast are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration, except as specified in Section 17(a) above. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.

    5. Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions; Severability. YOU AND Clubfeast AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE RESTAURANT MERCHANT CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or dispute, neither you nor Clubfeast is entitled to arbitration of such claim or dispute. Instead, all such claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court as set forth in Section 20, and all other provisions of this Section 19 (Dispute Resolution) shall remain in force. If any provision of this Section 19 is adjudged to be void or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the void or unenforceable provision shall be severed and such adjudication shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Section 19.

    6. Opt Out. You may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you do so, neither you nor Clubfeast can force the other to arbitrate as a result of this Agreement.
