DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with VERY and limits the manner that you can seek relief.

Agreement to Arbitrate

The United States Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. You and VERY agree that any and all controversies, claims, and disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or the Services or any information provided through the Services, whether based in contract, tort, warranty, statute, or any other legal or equitable basis, including, without limitation, any dispute or claim relating to the formation, interpretation, or enforceability of any part of these Terms (including the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement) and any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable (collectively, “Claims” and individually, a “Claim”), shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court; except that you and VERY each retain the right: (i) to bring an individual action in small claims court (if the Claim in question qualifies for small claims court); and (ii) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court against actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of intellectual property rights. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court.

This Arbitration Agreement has been in effect since June 14, 2022, and is binding for you.

Procedures

Arbitration will be conducted by a single and neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) Consumer Arbitration Rules and procedures (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, the terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. To learn more about arbitration through the AAA, visit http://www.adr.org.

Prior to initiating arbitration, you and VERY agree to first make reasonable efforts to try to resolve a Claim amicably through good-faith negotiations. If a Claim cannot be resolved amicably within 60 days after a party gives written notice (email sufficient) of the Claim to the other, then either party may initiate arbitration in accordance with this Arbitration Agreement.

To initiate arbitration, a party must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. If you initiate arbitration, please send your written Demand for Arbitration to:

Very.Health P.C.

Attn: Legal / Arbitration

1801 California St, Suite 2400, Denver, CO 80202

Email: legal@very.health

If we initiate arbitration, we will send our written Demand for Arbitration to you at the email or mailing address you have provided to us. In arbitration, the arbitrator will: (i) follow these Terms and apply internal laws of the Delaware, consistent with the United States Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations (or, to the extent (if any) that federal law prevails, will apply the applicable federal laws of the United States, irrespective of any conflict of law principles); (ii) entertain any motion to dismiss, motion to strike, motion for judgment on the pleadings, motion for complete or partial summary judgment, motion for summary adjudication, or any other dispositive motion consistent with Delaware or U.S. federal rules of procedure, as applicable; (iii) honor claims of privilege recognized at law; and (iv) have authority to award any form of legal or equitable relief consistent with applicable laws (except that the arbitrator may not award any punitive, incidental, indirect, special, or consequential damages). The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on both parties. Judgment on the arbitration award rendered may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Authority of Arbitrator

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and VERY. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other proceedings or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual party under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which any award (or decision not to render an award) is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.

Confidentiality

You and VERY agree that the entire arbitration proceeding will be conducted in a confidential manner and that the arbitrator’s decision and award will be kept confidential by both parties and, except as may be required by applicable law or a valid court order, will not be disclosed to any third party without the express prior written consent of both parties.

Waiver of Jury Trial

YOU AND VERY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT (OTHER THAN SMALL CLAIMS COURT AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS AS PERMITTED HEREIN) AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and VERY are instead electing that all covered claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in herein above stated provision. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief

ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE FOR CLAIMS COVERED BY THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER OR PERSON. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this provision’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then the applicable claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought in the state or federal courts located in the state of Delaware in accordance with the herein below stated provision regarding exclusive venue. All other claims shall be arbitrated.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Assignment

These Terms, and your rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by you without VERY’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

Exclusive Venue

To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms to initiate litigation in a court, both you and VERY agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms will be litigated exclusively in the state of Delaware or federal courts located in the state of Delaware and may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

Governing Law

THESE TERMS AND ANY ACTION RELATED THERETO WILL BE GOVERNED AND INTERPRETED BY AND UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, CONSISTENT WITH THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW OR OTHER PRINCIPLES THAT PROVIDE FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

Waiver

Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of these Terms on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.

Severability

If any portion of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

Notice

You may give notice to VERY by emailing legal@very.health or serving delivering such mail by nationally recognized overnight delivery service or first-class postage prepaid mail to 1801 California St, Suite 2400, Denver, CO 80202.
