3. Subscription Terms, Fees and Payments


eMeals is a fee-based subscription service offered at varying subscription durations. When you sign up for a
subscription, you are committed to the term that you have chosen. Users of the Site may be unregistered Users,
registered Users and paying subscribers (Subscribers).

User Requirements. You must be 18 years or older to subscribe to any Services and provide eMeals with
accurate and complete registration information. Failure to comply with either of these requirements will
constitute a breach of this Agreement.

During registration you will create an account using your email address and password that will be used to
authenticate your ongoing access to the Services. You will not:

Use the name of another person with the intent to impersonate them
Use a name that eMeals, in our sole discretion, deems inappropriate
Use the rights of another person

You are responsible for the use of your account and you must make your best effort to keep your password
secure. You should not share your password with others. If you believe your account has been compromised,
you must immediately notify eMeals of the suspected breach by emailing support@emeals.com.

For a Single Household. The Content provided through your subscription is intended for your personal use and
should not be shared with others outside of your household apart from the approved sharing features of the
Service.
Access to Meal Plans and Content. You must have an active account to have access to your Content. Once
your subscription expires, you will no longer have access to current or previous meal plans or other Content on
the Services until such time as your account is either reactivated or renewed.

Termination of your Account. If eMeals, in its sole opinion, believes that you are acting in a spirit inconsistent
with this Agreement or have breached the Agreement, we may terminate your account. In such a case, you are
not eligible for a refund. We also reserve the right to terminate your subscription for any reason even if the
reason does not cause a breach of this Agreement. In such a case, we will refund any remaining unused portion
of your subscription. The refund will be your sole and exclusive remedy to such a termination.

Prices Subject to Change. eMeals may change our base subscription prices at anytime. However, with the
exception of any discount from coupon codes or promotional offers, the price for any renewal will be at the
same base price that you were originally charged when you subscribedunless we notify you otherwise.
Should your base subscription price change, we will notify you by email and give you a time period of at least
two weeks to opt out of the renewal if you do not want to continue your subscription at the new price.

Grocery Delivery Partners. eMeals enables the grocery shopping lists associated with our meal plans to be
delivered by various third-party grocery delivery and pickup partners (Grocery Delivery Partners). However,
eMeals does not delivery groceries and any terms related to the delivery of groceries are between the user and
the Grocery Delivery Partners.

3.1 Purchasing Directly from the eMeals.com Site

Payments. The payment options and fees will be displayed on the Site at the time the subscription is offered.
The terms applying to that subscription are incorporated into this Agreement. Prices for all Subscriptions
exclude all applicable taxes unless stated otherwise and are in the form of US Dollars. To the extent that the law
allows, you are responsible for any applicable taxes, whether or not they are listed on the Site.

eMeals uses a designated third-party PCI compliant payment platform to store credit and debit card information
and process transactions for your Subscription. You are responsible for all transactions processed through the
Service. eMeals is not liable for any loss or damage from errant or invalid transactions processed through the
third-party payment platform.

Initial Purchase. Charges are processed immediately during checkout in accordance with the details displayed
to you during the checkout process. When signing up for a free trial, your card information will be collected
upon activation and will be automatically charged at the end of the free trial period. There is no further action
required by you if you would like to continue to subscribe to the meal plan.

Automatic Renewal. With the exception of gift certificate purchases, all of our meal plan subscriptions renew
automatically at the end of their term. Once you sign up for a trial or become a Subscriber, your subscriptions
will be automatically renewed and your credit card will be charged at the end of your term. Your subscription
will be renewed based on the term you selected when initially setting up the subscriptionunless you choose to
opt-out or cancel your subscription as described below. The renewal of subscriptions takes place according to
the Terms in place on the date of the renewal. If a free trial, promotion, or other offers were made available at
the time of purchase, be sure to take note of any rules, conditions, cancellation dates or price changes that may
take effect when the promotional or free trial period ends. If a renewal charge is unsuccessful, eMeals may retry
charges to your credit card for up to 60 days.

Valid Credit Card. It is your responsibility to ensure that eMeals has valid credit card information for your
account. eMeals may also use third-party services to retrieve updated credit card information for your account.
Cancellation and Opting Out of Trial or Renewal. You may cancel your trial or opt out of your next renewal
by phone by contacting our Customer Success department at 855-328-2674. You may not cancel your trial or
opt out of your renewal by leaving a voicemail, email or through our live chat feature. To avoid the processing
of a renewal payment, you must opt out at least two business days prior to your subscription renewal date. You
may cancel a free trial during the free trial period and incur no charge. When cancelling a free trial or opting out
of renewal, you may continue to use the subscription until the end of the current subscription or the free-trial
period.

Refunds. You are eligible for a full refund for 14 days after a charge is processed. Requests for a refund can be
made by phone at 855-328-2674. For gift certificate purchases, the 14-day refund period starts on the date the
gift certificate is purchased. Refunds will be made to the credit card that was originally charged and may take
up to 10 business days to appear on your credit card account. We do not provide prorated refunds.

3.2 Purchasing from a Third-Party Partner

eMeals may make subscriptions available through third-party applications and web sites (Third-Party
Offering). If you purchase your eMeals subscription through a Third-Party Offering you are bound by the
payment, cancellation, renewal and refund terms of that particular Third-Party Offering and the terms in Section
3.1 do not apply. These terms will be disclosed by the Partner when purchasing a Third-Party Offering.

4. Communication Between You and eMeals


We will generally contact you to let you know about changes to our Services and the products related to our
Services. You may opt out of our email communications by following the unsubscribe instructions located
within the email communications. You agree that any disclosure, notice, agreement, or other communication
that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal requirement, including that such communication be in
writing.

5. Content Submissions
By submitting recipes, photographs, ratings or reviews, you grant eMeals an irrevocable, non-exclusive,
perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right and license to use, display, modify, reproduce, publish, distribute in any
manner existing now or to be developed in the future without compensation of any kind to you or any third
party.

eMeals reserves the right to delete or refuse to post, at our sole discretion, any submitted content for any reason.

eMeals does not allow submitted items that contain:

Copyright materials for which the person submitting does not have the authority to provide a release of
the Copyright
Any content that infringes on intellectual property rights of a third party
Obscene, profane, or pornographic content
Personal attacks on others such as slanderous, defamatory, threatening or harassing content

eMeals may monitor content submitted, but we cannot be responsible for the submissions of third parties. If you
see something that you believe violates these Terms or spirit of our Services, please let us know by contacting
the Customer Experience team.

6. Dietary Restrictions & Preferences


eMeals is committed to providing simple, balanced meals to help individuals make healthy choices in
consultation with their personal physician.

eMeals does not:

Guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any nutritional information in the food database
Adopt, endorse, or accept responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any nutritional
information

Under no circumstances will eMeals be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from your reliance on
nutritional information and for ensuring that the food you and the members of your household prepare or
consume are in accordance with your specific dietary needs and restrictions. You should always seek the advice
of a physician or Registered Dietician for your own specific conditions or dietary needs. eMeals will not be
liable for any health issues resulting from the consumption of ingredients to which you or a member of your
household is allergic or that is harmful to you in any way.

7. Disclaimer
Our Content and Services are provided on an as is basis without warranties of any kind, whether explicit or
implied. Use of our Content and Services are at your own risk.

Additionally we make no representation or warrant that any Content within our Services is accurate, complete,
reliable, or error-free. We do not make representation that the Content or Services is suitable for a particular use
by you or one of your family members.

eMeals does not warrant that our Content, Services, servers, or emails are free from viruses or any other
harmful components.

Limited Liability. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, eMeals limits our liability. In
particular we will not be liable for any damages that we cause unintentionally and we will not be liable to you
for any actual, incidental, indirect or consequential loss or damage however caused, provided that nothing in
this Agreement will be interpreted so as to limit or exclude any liability which may not be excluded or limited
by law. For example, we will not be liable to you for any of the following types of damages, whether in
contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or otherwise (whether such loss or damage was
foreseeable, known or otherwise): (i) loss of revenue; (ii) loss of actual or anticipated profits; (iii) loss of the use
of money; (iv) loss of anticipated savings; or (v) loss or corruption of, or damage to, data, systems or programs.
Because some states/jurisdictions do not allow exclusions as broad as those stated above or limitations of
liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitations may, in whole or in part, not apply to
you. If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the Site or the Services, or with any clause of these terms, as
your sole and exclusive remedy you may discontinue using the Site and the Services. Although we will not be
liable for your losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account, you may be liable to others as well as to
us if your account is used in violation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless eMeals, its affiliates, officers, directors,
employees and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or
expenses (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from: (i) your use of and access to the Sites and
Services; (ii) your violation of any term of this Agreement; (iii) your violation of any third-party right, including
without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right; or (iv) any claim that your Content Submissions
caused damage to a third party. This defense and indemnification obligation will survive this Agreement and
your use of the Sites and Services.
8. Governing Law; Disputes
By using the Services or the Site, you agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the law
of the State of Alabama, without regard to its principles on conflicts of laws, will govern these Terms, your use
of the Site and the Services, and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and eMeals.

If a dispute arises between you and eMeals, our goal is to provide you a neutral and cost effective way to
resolve the dispute quickly. You agree to first contact the eMeals Customer Experience team by phone or email
via the contact information below to describe the problem and seek a resolution. If that does not resolve the
issue, then you and eMeals agree that any dispute or claim relating to your use of the Services or the Site will be
resolved through binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims
court if your claims qualify. In addition, you and eMeals both agree that either party may bring suit in court to
enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court
rather than in arbitration, you and eMeals each waive any right to a jury trial.

You and eMeals agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and
not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative action. Further, unless
both you and eMeals agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one persons claims, and
may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal,
state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. This entire
arbitration provision will survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your eMeals account.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a certified letter requesting arbitration and describing your
claim to eMeals Inc., 2101 Devereux Circle, Birmingham, AL 35243. The arbitration will be conducted by the
American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the Commercial Dispute Resolution
Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes of the AAA, as modified by this
Agreement (collectively, "AAA Rules"). The AAA Rules and costs are available online at www.adr.org.

9. Assignment
eMeals reserve the right to assign or transfer our rights and obligations under this Agreement. These terms are
personal to you and, as a result, you may not, without the written consent of eMeals, assign or transfer any of
your rights and obligations under this Agreement. There will be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

10. Severability
In the event that any term of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, the remainder of these terms will remain valid and enforceable. We can replace any term that is not
valid and enforceable with a term of similar meaning, which is valid and enforceable.

11. Waiver
Any failure by us to enforce any aspect of the terms of this Agreement will not affect our right to require
performance at any subsequent time, nor will the waiver by us of any breach by you of any provisions of these
terms be taken to be a waiver of the provision or provisions itself.

12. Complete Agreement


This Agreement, including any terms, conditions and policies expressly referenced herein, together with any
legal notices published on the Site, will constitute the complete understanding and agreement between you and
eMeals, and will supersede and cancel any prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, except as
expressly provided otherwise by eMeals.

13. Copyright Complaints


eMeals respects the intellectual property rights of others and requires that users of our Site and Services do the
same. U.S. copyright law does not protect recipes that include only listings of ingredients. However, Copyright
protection may extend to a description, explanation, or illustration that accompanies a recipe or formula or to a
combination of recipes such as in a cookbook. Should you have a copyright complaint, please contact our
Customer Experience team.

Contacting eMeals
For questions or comments regarding our Terms or Services, please contact the eMeals Customer Success team
