2. FEES AND PAYMENTS

2.1. Subscription Fees. You agree to pay KAYSE the applicable monthly or annual subscription fees as set forth by KAYSE in writing to you at the time of your signup for the Services. Fees are charged on the Billing Start Date and are payable in advance for the services rendered, based on the number of active cases and clients managed through the Service. The number of active cases and clients will be assessed on a monthly basis, and fees will be adjusted accordingly based on increases or decreases; provided, however, no prorated adjustments will be made for mid-term changes in case or client numbers. All fees paid are non-refundable. You authorize KAYSE, along with our payment affiliates or service providers, to process and store your payment card information. By subscribing to and using the Application, you acknowledge and agree to the pricing terms applicable to your subscription, as made available and clearly disclosed within the Application interface upon sign-in. These pricing terms may include subscription and usage fees, billing cycles, renewal terms, any other amounts due under this Agreement, and any applicable taxes or charges. Your continued use of the Application after sign-in constitutes your acceptance of then-current pricing terms. KAYSE reserves the right to update pricing from time to time, and any such changes will be communicated within the Application and will take effect upon your next billing cycle unless otherwise stated.

2.2. Usage Fees. In addition to subscription fees, KAYSE offers various usage-based services, including but not limited to SMS text messaging, email, voice AI calling, social media direct messages (DMs), mailed letters, contact enrichment, skip tracing, and local notary or door knocker services. Each of these services has its own pricing, which is subject to change. Usage fees, including charges for additional services beyond your selected plan, are non-refundable. Usage of services like SMS text messages, phone calls, or similar services will be calculated by rounding up to the nearest unit (e.g., minute, message, or instance of service). Spam calls or similar misuse may be excluded from billing at KAYSE’s sole discretion. If an adjustment is requested, please contact our support team.

2.3. Late Payments. If you fail to pay the fees or any other amounts due under this Agreement by the due date specified on the invoice or as otherwise provided herein, KAYSE is entitled to charge interest on the overdue amounts from the date payment was due. Interest will be calculated at a rate of 1.5% per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is higher, both pre-judgment and post-judgment.

2.4. Additional Fees for Certain Services. In some cases, KAYSE may incur additional fees related to porting phone numbers into or out of the platform. Certain regions (including, but not limited to, Alaska and the Yukon Territories) may incur extra costs for call forwarding or other services. Sending or receiving SMS and MMS messages to/from specific carriers or using any other additional services such as social media DMs, mailed letters, skip tracing, or local notaries, may also result in extra network or service-provider fees. KAYSE reserves the right to pass these charges on to you, and you agree to pay them.

2.5 Professional Services. During the term of this Agreement, Subscriber may request Licensor to perform computer professional services in the nature of software development, customization add-in, documentation and/or integration services (hereinafter, “Professional Services”). Upon receipt of a request, Licensor may provide Subscriber with a written proposal, and when the Parties agree to all requirements of the proposed Professional Services, a Task Order for the Professional Services shall be executed by the Parties. All Task Orders shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Services performed by Licensor are not exclusive to Subscriber, and Licensor may perform services of any type or nature for any other person or entity at any time.

2.6. Taxes. [You are responsible for promptly paying or reimbursing KAYSE for any applicable sales, use, excise, value-added, or similar taxes, assessments, duties, or other charges imposed by a governmental agency based on the Services provided, including any interest or penalties that result from your actions.][ Subscriber shall be responsible for all applicable taxes, excluding taxes based on Licensor’s income.]

2.7. Disputed Fees. If you dispute any portion of the fees billed to you, you must notify us in writing by identifying the specific fees which you dispute within sixty (60) days from the billing date, or the fees shall be considered correct. The Parties agree to work together to promptly resolve any disputes.

2.8. Deferred Payments and Security Interest. In some cases, in KAYSE’s sole and absolute discretion, KAYSE may defer payment for services rendered under this Agreement to KAYSE until resolution of the underlying mass tort cases (a “Deferral”), including but not limited to settlement, judgment, or any other monetary recovery (“Settlement Event”). Upon the occurrence of a Settlement Event, Subscriber shall  promptly, but in all cases within five (5) days of receipt of such funds, remit full payment to KAYSE for all outstanding fees and costs associated with the Services provided. Notwithstanding the timing or outcome of any Settlement Event, Subscriber unconditionally guarantees payment in full for all services rendered by KAYSE under this Agreement. This obligation is absolute, irrevocable, and independent of the success of any particular claim or case. In the event that no Settlement Event occurs within twenty-four (24) months from the execution of this Agreement, Subscriber shall pay all outstanding fees in full no later than thirty (30) days after the expiration of this period, unless otherwise agreed in writing by KAYSE. To secure the Subscriber’s payment obligations under this Agreement, Subscriber hereby grants KAYSE a continuing security interest and lien in all rights to payment to Subscriber arising from the legal or other services provided by Subscriber to its clients in connection with the underlying mass tort (or other) cases (any such amounts due to Subscriber, a “Recovery”),  whether now existing or hereafter arising, together with all proceeds and collections thereof, including without limitation, any attorney fees or costs recovered (collectively, a “Lien”). Subscriber shall not disburse or otherwise allow the Recovery to diminish unless and until KAYSE acknowledges in writing that the Lien has been fully satisfied. Subscriber represents and warrants that it has the authority to grant such a security interest and agrees to execute such further documents and take such further actions as KAYSE may reasonably request to perfect and enforce its security interest, including but not limited to the filing of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code. To the extent Subscriber may be required by applicable law and/or ethical rules to obtain Subscriber’s client’s consent in order for Subscriber to agree to any or all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Subscriber’s grant of a security interest in or against a Recovery or any portion thereof, Subscriber shall obtain such consent, and waives any claim, argument, or defense that Subscriber’s failure to obtain such consent relieves Subscriber from any obligations under this Agreement. Subscriber further agrees that, in the event Subscriber fails to pay KAYSE upon the occurrence of a Settlement Event as required by this Agreement, KAYSE shall, pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures herein, be entitled to entry of a final judgment against Subscriber, and Subscriber further waives any and all defenses to same except full and timely payment.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that KAYSE grants a Deferral in its sole and absolute discretion, this shall not create any course of dealing between KAYSE..

3. SERVICE DESCRIPTION, DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE. If the Service is delivered to Subscriber via a Display Device, KAYSE will make the Service available to the Subscriber upon successful sign-up and completion of the subscription process. The Service will be deemed accepted upon the Service Start Date. Any updates, bug fixes, or upgrades (“Corrections”) to the Service will be deemed accepted by the Subscriber on the day such Corrections are delivered.

KAYSE and its affiliates will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement where the delay or failure results from any cause beyond its respective control, including acts of God, pandemics, epidemics, labor disputes, or other industrial disturbances, systemic electrical, telecommunications, or other utility failures, earthquakes, hurricanes, storms or other elements of nature, blockages, embargoes, riots, acts or orders of government, acts of terrorism, or war.

11.13 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not create any third-party beneficiary rights in any individual or entity that is not a party to this Agreement. You shall not sublicense or allow another company or individual to use KAYSE without KAYSE written consent.

11.14. Not a Law Firm. KAYSE is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice whatsoever. Subscriber agrees that KAYSE is not providing any legal advice or legal services by or through its Website or by any other means, and, Subscriber acknowledges that and will govern itself accordingly.

Subscriber should not rely on any information contained in the Website regarding any legal issues.

11.15 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be exclusively governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. The venue for any proceedings hereunder shall be exclusively in the County of New York, New York.

11.16 Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute arising out of any of the terms contained in this Agreement (a “Dispute”), you agree to the following:

THESE TERMS REQUIRE THAT ALL DISPUTES BE RESOLVED THROUGH INDIVIDUAL MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS.

(a) INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. We would like to understand and try to address your concerns prior to formal legal action. Before either of us files a claim against the other, we both agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally. You agree to do so by sending us notice. We will do so by sending you notice to the email address associated with your account. If we are unable to resolve a Dispute within 60 days, either of us has the right to initiate arbitration. We also both agree to attend an individual settlement conference if either party requests one during this time. Any statute of limitations will be tolled during this informal resolution process.

(b) MEDIATION: Prior to the institution of any legal action, including Arbitration, the parties agree to participate, in good faith, in a mediation conference through the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures. The parties shall share the cost of the mediator equally. The mediation shall be scheduled within 45 days from the date that either party submits a written notice requesting the mediation conference to the other party. The mediation conference shall be conducted in the County of New York, New York or at another mutually agreed location.

(c) BINDING ARBITRATION: In the event either party does not agree or fails to participate in a mediation conference, pursuant to paragraph (a) above, the parties agree to submit any and all disputes arising out of these by-laws to binding arbitration to be conducted by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) under its Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures and/or Supplemental Rules for Mass Arbitration Filings. The arbitration shall be conducted within 60 days from the date of the impasse of the mediation conference, or within 60 days from the date either party submits the request through the NAM.

THESE TERMS REQUIRE THAT ALL DISPUTES BE RESOLVED THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION.

This section does not require informal dispute resolution or arbitration of claims for injunctive or other equitable relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, restrictive covenants herein, or intellectual property infringement or misappropriation.

(d). ENFORCING ARBITRATION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek an order compelling arbitration with the County of New York, New York, and waive the defenses of lack of personal and/or subject matter jurisdiction and/or forum of non-convenience.

(e). PREVAILING PARTY ATTORNEYS’ FEES: In the event the either party obtains a judgment or arbitration award, the prevailing party shall recover reasonable cost and attorney’s fees from the non-prevailing party including appellate fees and “fees for fees”.

(f). CLASS AND JURY TRIAL WAIVERS. Disputes must be brought on an individual basis only, and may not be brought as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, and representative actions are prohibited. Only individual relief is available. The parties agree to sever and litigate in court any request for public injunctive relief after completing arbitration for the underlying claim and all other claims. This does not prevent either party from participating in a class-wide settlement. The parties knowingly and irrevocably waive any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim. 

(g). Batch arbitration. If 25 or more claimants represented by the same or similar counsel file demands for arbitration raising substantially similar Disputes within 90 days of each other, then you and KAYSE agree that National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) under its Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures and/or Supplemental Rules for Mass Arbitration Filings will administer them in batches of up to 50 claimants each (“Batch”), unless there are less than 50 claimants in total or after batching, which will comprise a single Batch. NAM will administer each Batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one arbitrator, one set of arbitration fees, and one hearing held by videoconference or in a location decided by the arbitrator for each Batch. If any part of this section is found to be invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claimant or Batch, it will be severed and arbitrated in individual proceedings.  

11.17  Third-Party Legal Process. In the event that a subpoena, lawsuit, or other legal process (collectively, “subpoena”) commenced by a third party is served upon KAYSE in connection with this Agreement or the Services provided pursuant to this Agreement is served upon KAYSE, Subscriber agrees to pay or reimburse KAYSE, in KAYSE’s sole discretion,  for all legal fees and costs incurred by KAYSE in connection with such subpoena and, further, to cooperate with KAYSE in any lawful effort by KAYSE to contest, in whole or in part, the legal validity of such subpoena.
