By Abridge. Abridge shall defend or, at its option, settle any third-party claim, suit or proceeding (“Claim”) brought against You to the extent that such Claim alleges that the use of Abridge Telehealth Service by You or Your Connected Patients in accordance with these Terms infringes or misappropriates any third-party intellectual property right. Abridge shall have sole control of the defense or settlement negotiations for such Claims, and, subject to the limitations set forth below, Abridge agrees to pay and indemnify You against any final judgment entered against You or agreed to by Abridge in settlement as a result of such infringement in any such Claim defended by Abridge; provided that You give Abridge (i) prompt written notice of such Claim; and (ii) all reasonably available information and assistance, at Abridge’s expense, to settle and/or defend any such Claim.  ‍

Additional Rights. In the event that any Claim is brought or threatened, or, in Abridge’s opinion, a Claim is likely to be brought, Abridge may, at its sole option and expense: (i) procure for You the right to continue to use the Dashboard; (ii) modify or amend the Dashboard or replace the Dashboard with non-infringing services that do not materially impair the functionality of the Dashboard; or (iii) if either of the foregoing is not feasible on commercially reasonable terms, terminate these Terms and any Order Forms and refund on a pro-rata basis any Fees prepaid by You to Abridge, and upon such termination, You will immediately cease all use of the Dashboard.  ‍

Limitations. Abridge shall have no obligation to You under Section 12(a) to the extent a Claim arises from (i) Your breach of these Terms or any Order Forms; or (ii) use or resale of the Dashboard in combination with any products, services, data, software, hardware or business process not contemplated by these Terms or any Order Forms, if the alleged infringement would not have occurred absent such combination.‍

Sole Remedy. The foregoing provisions of this Section 12 state the entire liability of Abridge, and Your sole remedy, with respect to any actual or alleged claim of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.‍

Abridge may suspend access to the Dashboard if Abridge deems such suspension reasonably necessary to prevent any data breach or legal liability, without limiting any other remedies available at law or in equity.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU MAY SEEK RELIEF FROM US.‍

(a) Generally. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law and in the interest of resolving disputes between You and Abridge in the most expedient and cost effective manner, You and Abridge agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration, unless You are located in a jurisdiction that prohibits the exclusive use of arbitration for dispute resolution.

Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND Abridge ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. ‍

(b) Opt-Out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting clinicians@abridge.com within 30 days of first accepting this Agreement and stating that you (include your first and last name, and email address used to register for the Abridge Clinician Dashboard) decline this arbitration agreement.‍

(c) Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 15(a), nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either Party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.‍

(d) Arbitrator. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any arbitration between You and Abridge will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Abridge.‍

(e) Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Abridge’s address for Notice is: Abridge AI, Inc., 224 N. Euclid Ave. Suite 311 Pittsburgh, PA 15206. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The Parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the Parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, You or Abridge may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by You or Abridge must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in Your favor, Abridge will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Abridge in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.‍

(f) Fees. If You commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Abridge will reimburse You for Your payment of the filing fee, unless Your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location, to be agreed upon, in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, You may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of Your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, You agree to reimburse Abridge for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.‍

(g) No Class Actions. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND Abridge 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 OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both You and Abridge agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, to the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law.‍

(h) Claims. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, no action arising out of, in connection with, or relating to this Agreement shall be brought by You more than one (1) year after the accrual of the cause of action. This period shall not be extended for any reason, except by the written consent of both parties. All statutes or provisions of law which would toll or otherwise affect the running of the period of limitation are hereby waived, and no such statute or provision of law shall operate to extend the period limited in this paragraph, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

If Abridge makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Abridge’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Abridge’s address for Notice, in which case Your account with Abridge will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

If Section 15(f) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of Section 15 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 15 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 18 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

(a) Governing Law; Venue. To the fullest extent permitted pursuant to applicable law, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under this Agreement, then You and Abridge agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for the purpose of litigating any dispute. We operate the Dashboard from our offices in the United States, and we make no representation that Abridge Technology included in the Dashboard is appropriate or available for use in other locations.‍

(b) Independent Contractors. The Parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise or agency between You, Abridge, and no Party will have the power to act on the other Party’s behalf without the other Party’s prior written consent. ‍

(c) Assignment. No Party shall have the right to assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except that Abridge may assign this Agreement without consent as part of a corporate reorganization or upon a change of control, consolidation, merger, or transfer of all or substantially all of its business related to this Agreement, whether by sale of stock or assets, operation of law, or otherwise. Any attempted assignment or delegation in violation of the foregoing will be void.‍

(d) Force Majeure. Except for the obligation to pay money, no Party will be liable for any failure or delay in its performance under this Agreement due to any cause beyond its reasonable control, including acts of war, acts of God, labor shortages or disputes, pandemics, governmental acts or failure or degradation of the Internet or telecommunications services. The delayed Party will give the other Party prompt notice of such cause, and will make commercially reasonable efforts to promptly correct such failure or delay in performance.‍

(e) Severability; Waiver; Entire Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision shall be modified so as best to accomplish the original intent of the Parties to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect. The waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements. To the extent that any terms of the Order Form conflict with these Terms, the terms of the Order Form will prevail.‍

(f) Promotion. Abridge may include Your name and logo in lists of Abridge’s customers, solely to identify You as a user of the Dashboard and further provided that such customer lists shall not be presented in such a way as to indicate or imply any endorsement by or affiliation with You unless Abridge obtains Your prior written consent.‍

(g) Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted to be given hereunder will be deemed given (i) four days  after sent by certified mail, or (ii) two days after sent by a reputable overnight courier service, in either case with delivery confirmation and all delivery fees prepaid, to the address for the receiving Party set forth in the Order Form, or at such other address as receiving Party may provide by notice from time to time.
