  1. FEES AND TAXES
  1. You are responsible for determining and setting the retail price for each Food Product (the “Retail Price”), and you are responsible for the collection and remittance of all applicable Sales Taxes, where required under applicable law. The term “Sales Tax” includes any sales and similar transaction taxes, as well as any bottle, bag, plastic, or other similar fees. For the avoidance of doubt, the Retail Price for each Food Product excludes separately stated Sales Taxes.
  1. Restaurant will pay Komidaz a fee (the “Fee”) equal to the Retail Price (as defined below) of all Food Products that Restaurant sells via the Customer App (excluding any Sales Tax collected on Restaurant’s behalf) multiplied by the applicable fee percentage set forth on the Order Form. The Fee does not include any applicable taxes. Komidaz will remit to Restaurant the total Retail Price collected for all Food Products Restaurant sells through the Customer App (including any Sales Taxes collected on its behalf) less: (a) the applicable retained Fee; and (b) any refunds given to Customers (such final remitted amount being “Food Product Net Revenue”). All Food Product Net Revenue that is duly owed to Restaurant will be remitted within fourteen (14) business days of the sale of the Food Product or such other time as agreed upon by Komidaz.
  1. Restaurant hereby authorizes Komidaz to collect applicable Sales Taxes on Restaurant’s behalf based on information provided by Restaurant to Komidaz.  If Sales Taxes charged by Restaurant are not in accordance with any law or regulation, Komidaz expressly reserves the right to, upon prior notice to Restaurant, remove affected Food Products from Restaurant’s menu on the Customer App or remove Restaurant from the Customer App.
  1. Certain legislation may require Komidaz to collect and remit Sales Taxes directly to the applicable taxing authority. In jurisdictions with such laws that are applicable to Komidaz,  Komidaz may determine, as of a date specified by Komidaz, the amount of applicable Sales Tax which Komidaz will collect and remit to the taxing authority based on Food Product descriptions and other information provided by Restaurant. From the date Komidaz begins collecting Sales Tax for direct payment to any taxing authority, any covered Sales Taxes will be collected by Komidaz and remitted to the applicable tax authority on Komidaz’s own account, and not on behalf of Restaurant. A list of jurisdictions in which Komidaz will collect and remit Sales Taxes may be found at http://www.komidaz.com/salestax  as updated from time to time.
  1. Restaurant hereby appoints Komidaz and its affiliates, as the case may be, as Restaurant’s payment collection agent solely for the purpose of: (i) accepting payment of the Retail Price of Food Products sold by Restaurant via the Customer App plus any applicable Sales Tax collected on Restaurant’s behalf and (ii) remitting the Retail Price plus Sales Tax collected on Restaurant’s behalf less the retained Fee and, if applicable, any refunds given to Customers on behalf of Restaurant (“Food Product Revenue”). Further, Restaurant agrees that payment collected on its behalf by Komidaz or its affiliates will be considered the same as payment made directly to Restaurant. Restaurant is solely responsible for providing Komidaz with, and maintaining, accurate bank account information.  Komidaz and its affiliates may, from time to time, request information from Restaurant to confirm Restaurant’s identity as may be required or advisable under any applicable laws, rules or regulations before remitting any amounts to Restaurant and may refuse to process amounts owed to Restaurant if there exists a legal or regulatory risk or potential breach of law or regulation associated with such remittance to Restaurant. Komidaz may adjust the remittance of Food Product Revenue collected on Restaurant’s behalf for reasons including failure to deliver a Food Product as ordered or making a correction on an Food Product. Komidaz and its affiliates reserve the right to collect any amounts in connection with adjustments via a deduction from the remittance of Food Product Revenue collected on Restaurant’s behalf, by debiting the payment method or Restaurant’s bank account on record, or otherwise seeking reimbursement from Restaurant by any lawful collection methods available. Restaurant authorizes Komidaz and its affiliates to use any or all of the above methods to seek such adjustments and reimbursements. Certain, such as, without limitation, fraud (including any charges for Food Products that Customers did not place) or Customer complaints, Komidaz and its affiliates reserve the right to cancel a payment entirely. By agreeing to these terms, Restaurant gives Komidaz and its affiliates express consent to adjust payments collected on Restaurant’s behalf as set forth in this section.

23.DISPUTE RESOLUTION

  1. Arbitration. Any dispute, whether contractual or otherwise, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or these dispute resolution procedures, including any question regarding its existence, performance, validity, or termination, will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”, see www.adr.org) and not by a judge or jury.  The AAA Rules are deemed incorporated herein by reference. The arbitration shall be conducted by and in front of a single arbitrator, nominated according to the AAA rules (the “Arbitrator”). The parties agree that the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The Arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether this Agreement is unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.
  1. Procedure/Rights/Limitations and Waivers.  The Parties hereby agree:
  1.         In the event of a dispute or claim arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement, the complaining party shall notify the other party in writing. Within thirty (30) days of such notice, representatives of both parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. Should the dispute not be resolved within such thirty-day period, the complaining party’s exclusive remedy shall be arbitration, or as set forth in Section 24.
  1.         The Arbitrator’s award will be final and binding and judgment on the Arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

                   iii.        The place of arbitration will be New York, New York, or the AAA location closest to the complaining party’s principal place of business.

  1.         To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties agree to keep confidential all materials related to the dispute, including the existence and substance of the dispute, all the submissions by the parties to the Arbitrator, and awards rendered by the Arbitrator.
  1.         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 23, either party parties may (a) seek relief in small claims court, or (b)  seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.   Claims that are not arbitrable pursuant to the FAA are excluded from this agreement.
  1.         NEITHER PARTY MAY BRING ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY, OR PARTICIPATE IN OR RECOVER RELIEF UNDER ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION BROUGHT AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY BY A THIRD PARTY (the “Class Action Waiver”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the interpretation, validity and enforceability of the Class Action Waiver shall only be determined by a court, and not by the Arbitrator.

                  vii.        Each party shall pay its own proportionate share of Arbitrator fees and expenses and expenses of the AAA. At his discretion, the Arbitrator shall have the right to award the foregoing arbitration and administrative fees and expenses as damages.

                 viii.        Notwithstanding any choice of law or other provision in this Agreement, the parties agree and acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), will govern its interpretation and enforcement and proceedings pursuant thereto. It is the intent of the parties that the FAA and AAA Rules shall preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under this Agreement or the enforcement thereof, then that issue shall be resolved under the laws of the state of New York.

  1. Injunctive Relief.  You acknowledge that Komidaz would be damaged irreparably and would have no adequate remedy of law if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 23, you agree that upon any breach of this Agreement by You that Komidaz shall be entitled to obtain temporary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent such breach or use, in addition to any other remedy to which Komidaz may be entitled and without having to prove the inadequacy of any other remedy Komidaz may have at law or in equity and without being required to post bond or other security.
  1. FORCE MAJEURE.  Any delay in or failure by either party in the performance of this Agreement will be excused if and to the extent such delay or failure is caused by occurrences beyond the control of the affected party including without limitation decrees or restraints of Government, acts of God, epidemics, strikes, work stoppage or other labor disturbances, war or sabotage (each being a “Force Majeure Event”). The affected party will promptly notify the other party upon becoming aware that any Force Majeure has occurred or is likely to occur and will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any resulting delay in or interference with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.
  1. MISCELLANEOUS.  Restaurant agrees to receive calls, SMS messages and other communications, including those made available by autodialer, sent by or on behalf of Komidaz or its affiliates. The failure of either party to enforce the provisions hereof, or the failure of either party to exercise any option herein, will not be construed as a waiver of such provision or option and will in no way affect that party’s right to enforce such provisions or exercise such option. This Agreement may not be assigned, transferred, delegated or subcontracted, in whole or in part, by a party without the prior written consent of the other party, provided that each party may assign this Agreement, upon written notice to the other party, (a) to an affiliate of such party, or (b) in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of such party’s equity, business or assets to which this Agreement relates.  This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of each party hereto and its respective successors and assigns. Any purported assignment, transfer, delegation or subcontract in violation of this Section will be null and void. In the event any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by ruling of an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement (and each of the remaining terms and conditions contained herein) will remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to create any joint venture, joint enterprise, or agency relationship among the parties (except as otherwise expressly set forth above), and no party will have the right to enter into contracts on behalf of, to legally bind, to incur debt on behalf of, or to otherwise incur any liability or obligation on behalf of, the other party hereto. Each party will be solely responsible for its employees and contractors used in connection with such party’s performance obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement contains the full and complete understanding and agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporary understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, relating such subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by exchange of electronically signed counterparts transmitted by pdf format, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which, when taken together, will constitute one and the same original instruments.
