Arbitration
The Software is controlled and operated by Vheda Health from the United States, and is not intended to subject Vheda Health or its affiliates to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or territory other than that of the United States. Except to the extent otherwise provided by law, any dispute or claim arising out of or in any way relating to this License, the Software or the Services shall be finally resolved by arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration (Effective November 1, 2007), except as they may be modified herein or by mutual agreement of the parties. The arbitration shall take place in Delaware or such other location as agreed to by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties consent to the jurisdiction of the federal or state courts having jurisdiction in the location where the arbitration is conducted as to judicial proceedings relating to any aspect of the arbitration, including motions to confirm, vacate, modify or correct an arbitration award. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq., and judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets. The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator, who shall be selected by agreement of the parties or, failing such agreement within 30 days after the initiation of the arbitration, by the CPR. The parties shall be responsible for paying the costs of the arbitration in accordance with CPR rules. The parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it shall not be disclosed beyond the tribunal, the parties and their counsel, and any person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding. The confidentiality obligations shall not apply if disclosure is required by law or in judicial or administrative proceedings, or to the extent that disclosure is necessary to enforce the rights arising out of the award, provided that the parties agree to use best efforts to keep such disclosure confidential and agree, subject to court approval, to submit such disclosure to a court only under seal. Claims may not be brought in the arbitration proceeding by or on behalf of a purported class of claimants who are not parties to this engagement letter. This agreement to arbitrate shall constitute an irrevocable waiver of each party’s right to a trial by jury, as well as of rights to discovery or to an appeal that would customarily be available in a judicial proceeding but that may be limited or unavailable in connection with such an arbitration.
To the extent that this arbitration requirement is found to be entirely unenforceable, you agree that any dispute arising from or relating to this EULA will be brought exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction, federal or state, located within the Delaware, and in no other jurisdiction, and you hereby consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in, and agree to service of process issued or authorized by, such court. The Software is controlled and operated by Vheda Health from the United States, and is not intended to subject Vheda Health or its affiliates to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or territory other than that of the United States. Vheda Health reserves the right to make any claim against you and seek and be granted any legal or equitable remedy against you in any court anywhere in the world.
Third-Party Providers or Payors
The Software provides users with access to electronic schedules of the available appointments of doctors, hospitals and other third-party healthcare providers (“Third-Party Providers“). Additionally, the Software provides users with the ability to exchange certain information with Third-Party Providers. Although Vheda Health reserves the right (but does not have the obligation) to monitor, it does not control the content of such information and assumes no responsibility or liability of any kind for any inaccuracies contained therein, or for any qualifications, reference materials or other content available therein.
Vheda Health does not provide any information regarding coverage available, healthcare costs, or doctors and hospitals participating in your insurance or benefit plan. You should contact your insurance carrier or plan administrator (“Payors“) for this information. Payors are third parties, although certain third-party Payors may be affiliated with Vheda Health. In some cases, a Payor may contract with Vheda Health to provide such Payor’s members with information regarding coverage available, healthcare costs, doctors and hospitals participating in the plan, and other content and services (“Healthplan Services“). If your Payor has contracted with Vheda Health to make Healthplan Services available to you, you may be able to log in using your insurance or benefit plan member identification number, and access content and services related to your insurance or benefit plan. Although Vheda Health reserves the right (but does not have the obligation) to monitor the Healthplan Services (including but not limited to the content and services made available therein, such as network information, coverage and claim information and cost information), Vheda Health does not control the Healthplan Services, and assumes no responsibility or liability of any kind for any inaccuracies (including inaccuracies regarding network participation, plan benefits, coverage, features or claim status) contained therein, or for any messaging, reference materials or other content or services made available therein.
Vheda Health is not responsible for, and shall have no liability in connection with, any transactions or disputes between you and Third-Party Providers or Payors. If you have a dispute with a Third-Party Provider or Payor, you agree to release us (and our employees and agents) from claims, demands and damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed (including actual, consequential and punitive damages), arising out of or in any way connected with the use of the Software or such disputes. You waive any provisions of any state, province, or country law that limit or prohibit a general release, including, if applicable, Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

Miscellaneous
This EULA is the entire agreement between you and Vheda Health with respect to and supersedes any previous oral or written communications or documents (including, if you are obtaining an update, any agreement that may have been included with an earlier version of the Software) concerning the subject matter of this EULA. In no event will any additional or inconsistent term in any purchase order or similar document submitted by you modify the terms of this EULA.
You agree that this EULA is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, as such laws apply to contracts between Delaware residents entered into and performed entirely in Delaware, notwithstanding your place of residency or Delaware conflicts of law provisions. This EULA will not be governed by the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.
If any provision of this EULA is found to be invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the extent permissible and, to the extent invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed modified to the most limited extent necessary to be valid and enforceable, in accordance with applicable law, while still as fully as possible carrying out the intent of the original provision, and the remainder of this EULA will remain in full force and effect.
