ROLLING ENERGY RESOURCES TERMS OF SERVICE

INTRODUCTION

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Rolling Energy Resources Inc. (“RER”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) governing your access to and use of the RER’s websites (the “Sites”) and mobile applications provided by RER (together with the Sites, the “Platform”) and the online and offline services which RER agrees to provide to you in connection with the Platform (the “Services”). The Platform and Services may be provided to you on behalf of your energy service provider (your “ESP”).

You represent and certify that you are of legal age to form a binding contract and are not a person barred from receiving Services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions. To register as a user of the Services you must be 18 years or over. In the event that you are agreeing to this Terms on behalf of a third party entity, you represent and warrant that you have sufficient right to bind such third party to these Terms, in which case, all references to “you” in these Terms shall be references to such third party.

BY CHECKING I AGREE, OR BY OTHERWISE ACCESSING THE PLATFORM OR USING ANY OF THE SERVICES YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

In the case of inconsistencies between these Terms and information included in any other materials related to the Platform or the Services (e.g., promotional materials and mailers), these Terms will always govern and take precedence.

 

      1. Services

         

        1.1. The Services. Depending on the particular Services you have selected to receive, the Services may include: (a) MyCharge reports; a connected electric vehicle analysis service that provides you with a monthly report with information on your electric vehicle, including charging, carbon mitigation, fuel costs based on charge times, and month to month comparisons; (b) a time-of-use rate assistance service that optimizes charging via your connected electric vehicle that shifts charging to less expensive (off-peak) rates by delaying the time at which the electric vehicle begins to charge; and (c) a demand response emergency service that electric utilities use to reduce the chance of interruption to electric service due to high load on the grid, thereby improving grid stability. You may opt-in to participate in this demand response service, during which your connected electric vehicle charging would have its charging delayed until the event is over. You may be incentivized by your local utility to participate in this service.

        1.2. RER uses reasonable efforts to ensure that the online features of the Services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. However, there will be occasions when the Services will be interrupted for maintenance, upgrades, and emergency repairs or due to failure of telecommunications links and equipment that are beyond the control of RER. RER will use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize such disruption where it is within the reasonable control of RER. You agree that RER shall not be liable to you for any unavailability, modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services. You are responsible for obtaining access to the Services and understand that such access may involve third party fees (such as Internet service provider or airtime charges). You are responsible for those fees. In addition, you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access the Services.

        1.3. You may access online features of the Services through your account on the Platform (your “Account”). You may log into your Account using a unique username and password. You are responsible for safeguarding your password and you agree not to disclose your password to any third party. You are solely responsible for any activities or actions taken under your username, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You agree that the information that you provide to RER about yourself upon registration of your Account, and at all other times, (“Customer Data”) will be true, accurate, current and complete, and you further agree that you will maintain and promptly update the Customer Data to ensure that it remains true, accurate, current and complete. You may not impersonate any other person or use a username or password that you are not authorized to use. RER reserves the right to require you to change your password for any reason at any time. If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your Account, you agree to notify RER immediately at privacy@rollingenergyresources.com.

        1.4. Subject to these Terms, RER grants you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license to access and use the Platform and Services. This license is exclusive to you and you may not sub-license the use of the Platform. RER expressly retains all ownership rights, title, and interest in and to all aspects of the Services and the Platform, including, but not limited to, all current and future patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, know-how, and other proprietary rights included or embodied in the Platform. You may not modify the Platform or Services, create derivative works of the Platform or Services, or reverse engineer, reverse compile, reverse assemble or do any other operation with the Platform or Services that would reveal any source code, trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information. This license shall not be construed or interpreted as granting or providing rights to you to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, perform, display, possess or control the source code or any other aspect of the Platform. You may not remove or modify any notice of confidentiality, trade secret, trademark or copyright encoded or embodied in the Platform or displayed by, on, or in the Platform. You may use the Platform only while these Terms remain in effect. Under no circumstances shall you have any rights of any kind in or to the Platform after any termination or expiration of your agreement to these Terms for any reason.

          2.3.

          • Fees. The Services are initially made available without charge. RER, however, reserves the right to charge for access to and use of the Services and Platform, or any component thereof. Any fees for the Services and Platform will be posted on the Platform.
            • Third Party Software and Linking. Although we may make software, hyperlinks, and other products of third-party companies available to you, your use of such products is subject to the respective terms and conditions imposed by the third party owning, manufacturing or distributing such products, and the agreement for your use will be between you and such third party. RER makes no warranty with regard to the products or website of any other entity. RER has no control over the content or availability of any third-party software or website. In particular, (a) RER makes no warranty that any third-party software you download or web Platform you visit will be free of any contaminating or destructive code, such as viruses, worms or Trojan horses and (b) RER notifies you that it is your responsibility to become familiar with any website privacy and other policies and terms of service, and to contact that website’s webmaster or website administrator with any concerns.

Further, you agree that RER shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Platform or Services. RER reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that RER shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.
                • RER respects the privacy of is users. RER collects, uses, and discloses information about you that you’ve made available to us, including your Energy Usage Data, in accordance with the RER Privacy Policy. You understand and agree that, notwithstanding any measures taken to prevent unauthorized disclosure, use of or connection to the Internet provides the opportunity for unauthorized third parties to circumvent such precautions and illegally gain access to confidential information.

                  • Disclaimer of Warranty. THE PLATFORM AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

RER (AND IF APPLICABLE, YOUR ESP) MAKES NO WARRANTY REGARDING ANY SOFTWARE, GOODS, SERVICES, PROMOTIONS, OR THE DELIVERY OF ANY GOODS OR SERVICES, PURCHASED, ACCESSED OR OBTAINED THROUGH THE PLATFORM OR ADVERTISED THROUGH THE PLATFORM. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION GIVEN BY RER, ITS EMPLOYEES OR AFFILIATES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY.

                            11.1. RER may modify these Terms at any time. Modifications become effective immediately upon your first access to or use of the Platform or Services after the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. If you have created an Account, we shall notify you of any material changes to these Terms by email sent to the address you have provided to RER for your Account. Your continued access to or use of the Platform or Services after the modifications have become effective will be deemed your conclusive acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree with the modifications, do not access or use the Platform or Services.

                            11.2. Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution. These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may require the application of the law of another jurisdiction. If you believe that RER has not adhered to these Terms, please contact us by e-mail at privacy@stagingwww.rollingenergyresources.com. We will do our best to address your concerns. If you feel that your complaint has been addressed incompletely, we invite you to let us know for further investigation. If you and RER are unable to reach a resolution to the dispute, you and RER will settle the dispute exclusively under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) at its Denver, Colorado office. Any election to arbitrate by one party will be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT IF EITHER PARTY ELECTS TO ARBITRATE, NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL. You and RER agree that any arbitration will be limited to the dispute between RER and you individually. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND RER ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and RER otherwise agree in writing, an arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of the Platform or the Services or these Terms must be brought, if at all, within one year from the accrual of the claim or cause of action or be forever barred.

                            11.3. No Resale of Services. You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade, resell or exploit for any commercial purposes, any portion of the Services, use of the Services, or access to the Services.

                            11.4. Independent Contractors. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and RER as a result of these Terms or use of the Platform or the Services.

                            11.5. If any legal action is brought to enforce these Terms, the prevailing party will be entitled to reimbursement of its attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other collection expenses, in addition to any other relief it may receive from the other party.

                            11.6. Force Majeure. RER will not be liable by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder on account of strikes, shortages, riots, insurrection, fires, flood, storm, explosions, epidemics, pandemics, acts of God, war, governmental action, labor conditions, earthquakes, material shortages or any other cause which is beyond RER’s reasonable control.

                            11.7. The failure of RER to enforce any right or provision in these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by RER in writing.

                            11.8. The headings of Sections of these Terms are for convenience and are not to be used in interpretation.

                            11.9. RER is located in Boulder, Colorado. Any questions, comments, or suggestions, including any report of violation of these Terms should be provided to the Administrator as follows:

                      By E-mail:                          privacy@rollingenergyresources.com

                      By Postal Mail:                  2500 30th Street, Suite 207, Boulder CO 80301

                       

                      11.10. Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and RER and govern your use of the Platform and the Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and RER. The failure of RER to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, you and RER nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
