I. Legally Binding Agreement

Please read this Agreement carefully. This Agreement forms a legally binding contract between you and Cityblock. We represent and warrant that Cityblock has validly entered into this Agreement and has the legal power to do so.

By opting to participate in the Cityblock Texting Program, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by this Agreement and affirm that you are able and legally competent to do so. If you do not agree to all terms set forth in this Agreement, then Cityblock does not agree to provide you with the Cityblock Texting Program, and you must not participate in the Cityblock Texting Program; or you must immediately stop accessing and using the Cityblock Texting Program by texting STOP to 57973. Otherwise, by continuing to access and use Cityblock’s Texting Program, you are agreeing to be bound by this Agreement.

II. Eligibility to Use the Cityblock Texting Program

The Cityblock Texting Program is offered to and intended for use only by Members who are 18 years of age or older and reside in the United States or any of its territories. You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Cityblock, meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements, and have validly entered into this Agreement. If you do not meet all of these requirements, then we do not agree to your use of the Cityblock Texting Program, and you must not use the Cityblock Texting Program. If you have already started using the Cityblock Texting Program, you must immediately stop participating in the Cityblock Texting Program and text STOP to 57973.

III. How to Opt-Out

You may choose to stop receiving text messages from the Cityblock Texting Program at any time. To stop receiving texts from Cityblock and opt-out of the Cityblock Texting Program, text STOP to 57973. When you opt-out, you will receive a final text confirming that your choice to opt-out has been recorded.

Cityblock will reasonably endeavor to comply with any text communications sent in which you indicate a clear and unmistakable intent to opt-out of the Cityblock Texting Program; however, you (a) understand that these messages go to a short code number that is entirely automated (is not monitored by a human) and the ability of our short code box to interpret your intent is severely restricted and, therefore, (b) you understand that unless you text only the word STOP to 57973, your request to opt-out of the Cityblock Texting Program may not be effective.

IV.General User Agreements

• You will be bound by all terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;
• You are the current wireless service plan subscriber and/or an authorized user of the mobile phone number that you used when Opting In (“Enrolled Phone Number”) to the Cityblock Texting Program, or that you have been granted permission by the wireless service plan subscriber and/or authorized user of the Enrolled Phone Number to opt-in to the Cityblock Texting Program;

Charges for text messages or data usage may appear on your mobile phone bill or be deducted from your prepaid balance by your wireless carrier.

VIII. Text Message Delivery

Cityblock does not guarantee the successful delivery of text messages by your wireless carrier. Text messages may not be delivered if the mobile device is not in range of a transmission site, or if sufficient network capacity is not available at a particular time.

Your use of the Cityblock Texting Program and any Resources provided in text messages through the Cityblock Texting Program is at your own risk. The Cityblock Texting Program and any Resources provided in text messages through the Cityblock Texting Program are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without any warranties of any kind, express or implied.

Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of implied warranties, which means that some or all of these exclusions may not apply to you. If any of the above provisions are void under applicable law, Cityblock’s liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

XV. Limitation and Release of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Cityblock, or any of its affiliates, service providers, employees, agents, officers, or directors be liable for losses or damages of any kind, including any direct, indirect, special, exemplary, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to, personal injury, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of revenue, loss of profits, loss of business or anticipated savings, loss of use, loss of goodwill, loss of data, and whether caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, under any legal theory, that arise out of or in connection with your use or inability to use the Cityblock Texting Program; the delivery, non-delivery, delayed delivery, or misdirected delivery of any text messages sent through the Cityblock Texting Program; or for your or others’ use or reliance on any content, including inaccurate or incomplete information or Resources, contained in any text messages from Cityblock sent through the Cityblock Texting Program.

If you are a California resident, you waive your rights with respect to California Civil Code Section 1542, which asserts that “a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

You acknowledge and agree that the above-asserted limitations of liability, together with all other provisions in this Agreement that limit liability, are essential terms, and that Cityblock would not be willing to grant you the rights set forth in this Agreement but for your Agreement to the above-asserted limitations of liability.

If the limitations of liability set forth in this section are inapplicable or unenforceable for any reason, Cityblock’s maximum liability for any type of damages hereunder shall be limited to $1,000.

XVI. Indemnification

You agree, at your own expense, to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cityblock and its subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, and third-party providers, as well as our third-party service providers’ subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, and agents, from and against all claims, actions, liabilities, losses, demands, damages, judgments, awards, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ and accounting fees) arising out of or relating to your participation in and receipt of text messages through the Cityblock Texting Program or arising out of or relating to your violation of any terms set forth in this Agreement, your violation of any rights of any third party, or your any violation of any applicable law, regulation, rule, or standard.

This indemnification provision does not apply to the extent it is prohibited by any applicable law. Cityblock reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification hereunder. No settlement that affects the rights or obligations of Cityblock may be made without Cityblock’s prior written approval.

XVII. Dispute Resolution

Choice of Law: Except for any disputes relating to intellectual property rights or infringement claims, all of which shall be governed by United States federal law, any disputes between you and Cityblock and our agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, or affiliates arising from or relating to this Agreement and the interpretation, formation, performance, breach, enforceability, termination, or validity thereof, or otherwise arising from or relating to the Cityblock Texting Program (each individually a “Dispute”; collectively, “Disputes”), shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, regardless of the location in which you reside or where you access the Cityblock Texting Program, and without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction).

Agreement to Arbitrate: You agree that any Disputes shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration in the State of New York by and pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). You further agree that:

• At least 60 days prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. Cityblock will provide notice by email to the email address you provided to Cityblock, and if Cityblock does not have an email address on file for you, Cityblock will send notice to you by certified mail to the mailing address you provided to Cityblock; and you must provide such notice to Cityblock by email at legal@cityblock.com.
• Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, notice of any claim arising from or related to this Agreement must be made within one (1) year after the initial facts supporting such claim arose or be forever barred.
• A single arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language.
• The arbitrator, rather than any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Disputes.
• The arbitrator will have the power to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
• The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages. Further, each party hereby specifically waives his/her/its right to receive punitive or exemplary damages relating to any Dispute.
• The arbitrator will apply applicable law and the provisions of this Agreement. Any failure by the arbitrator to do so will be deemed an excess of arbitral authority and grounds for judicial review.
• The arbitrator’s decision must include a written explanation of his/her decision and shall remain confidential.
• Any Dispute will be submitted to arbitration on an individual basis only. Neither party is entitled to arbitrate any Dispute as a class action, representative action, or private attorney general action. The arbitrator will not have authority to proceed with an arbitration submitted on a class, representative, or private attorney general basis.

Exception to Arbitration Agreement: Either party to this Agreement may obtain preliminary injunctive relief in a court of competent subject matter jurisdiction in Kings County, New York for the purpose of enforcing any of the terms of this Agreement pending a final determination in arbitration. Additionally, either party to the arbitration may seek permanent relief from a court of competent subject matter jurisdiction in Kings County, New York for the purpose of enforcing any arbitration award.

Your receipt of text messages from the Cityblock Texting Program is also subject to termination in the event your mobile phone service terminates or lapses.

If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, then: (1) this Agreement will continue to apply and be binding upon you in respect of your prior participation in the Cityblock Texting Program (and any unauthorized further participation in the Cityblock Texting Program), including your indemnification obligations; (2) this Agreement’s provisions regarding Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation and Release of Liability, Indemnification, and Dispute Resolution, as well as its Miscellaneous Provisions, will survive such termination; and (3) any rights, remedies, or licenses granted to Cityblock under this Agreement will survive such termination.
