2. Service description

(a) Hospitality Wireless Internet

(i) Hospitality Wireless will provide Service that runs either over the same copper line as your Hospitality Wireless wireline telephone line, over a fiber-optic connection that runs directly to your location, or via a wireless connection to your location. If you do not have a Hospitality Wireless wireline telephone line, Hospitality Wireless will (a) provide Pure Broadband over either a copper or fiber-optic connection to your location or (b) provide Fixed Wireless over a wireless connection to your location. You must specify a Hospitality Wireless telephone number to use with the Service (unless you order Pure Broadband Service or Fixed Wireless). Hospitality Wireless may terminate your Service or charge you for Pure Broadband Service if you change your Hospitality Wireless local telephone service to another company, move your Hospitality Wireless local telephone service to a wireless service provider or otherwise terminate your Hospitality Wireless local telephone service.

(ii) Availability

Service may not be available in all areas or at the rates or speeds generally marketed. The speed(s) available at your location are identified during the ordering process and confirmed upon the provisioning of service at your location. Service speeds disclosed to you are "up to" a specific download speed via a wired connection under typical circumstances within the Hospitality Wireless network and at your location. Service is provided on a per-line basis, and the actual throughput speed of your Service depends on a number of factors such as Internet traffic and congestion or bandwidth, distance of your location from certain Hospitality Wireless data equipment, viruses or spyware, number, age, and capability of connected devices, server speed of the Websites you connect to, traffic and congestion on your home network or corporate LAN, and your PC settings. Service via a wireless connection may not deliver the disclosed throughput speed or "up to" speed and will vary, particularly when Service is accessed by multiple wireless devices. Speed tests may reflect a speed lower than actual throughput speed when connected via a wireless connection or when multiple devices are in use, and may be further limited by the speed capabilities of those devices, in addition to the other factors listed above. Uninterrupted or error-free Services are not guaranteed and Hospitality Wireless may limit speeds. Additional information about network performance, practices and policies is disclosed on Hospitality Wireless's Internet Service Disclosure.

Hospitality Wireless will provision your line at the maximum speed available at your location within the speed range of the Service you selected. Your location may be subsequently eligible for additional Services, including new speed options; provided that you will be charged for any Service change. Additionally, some ISPs may not be supported for all speeds and in all areas and, if you change speed you may no longer be able to utilize the ISP you originally selected. Availability of Service depends on availability and limits of Hospitality Wireless wire centers and facilities. Service will not be provided using unsuitable facilities or if provision of Service creates interference with other services. Service is offered only to location(s) qualified by Hospitality Wireless line qualification procedures. Some lines may not qualify for the Service even if initial tests qualified such lines. Speed and availability of Services are not guaranteed and may be limited by a variety of factors including but not limited to the physical condition of your line and wiring at and/or inside your location, your service location, phone line qualifications, computer or device performance/configuration, and network/Internet congestion. Each of these factors is outside of Hospitality Wireless's control and, as a result, none are Hospitality Wireless's responsibility. Any repairs or changes to these factors are your sole responsibility. Additionally, Fixed Wireless is subject to service limitations including but not limited to proximity and positioning of antennas, cell tower/site outage, tampering or damage to Equipment.

(iii) Moves

If you move to another location (including a move within the same building) you are not guaranteed to have either the same Service or any Service at the new location. Your line must be re-qualified for Service at any new location and MRCs and NRCs applicable to any new Service will apply.

(iv) Hospitality Wireless facilities and equipment to provide service; licenses

FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION, MOVING, CHANGING YOUR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER, OR MAKING A CHANGE TO ANY PART OF YOUR SERVICE THAT CARRIES A TERM COMMITMENT IS CONSIDERED TERMINATION OF THE ENTIRE SERVICE. THE EARLY-TERMINATION CHARGE IS NOT A PENALTY. RATHER, IT IS AN OFFSET OR RECOVERY OF HOSPITALITY WIRELESS COSTS RELATED TO EARLY TERMINATION AND THE DISCOUNTS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR TERM COMMITMENT. Hospitality Wireless may waive the early-termination charge. If you move or upgrade Service, your original term commitment period may start over. After the term commitment period, Service will continue month-to-month until terminated by you or by Hospitality Wireless.

Hospitality Wireless may terminate this Agreement, your password, your account, and/or your use of the Service, without notice and for any reason, including, without limitation, if you fail to pay any charges when due, or if Hospitality Wireless believes you or someone using your account has violated this Agreement.

For all other Service customers, if Services are terminated by you or Hospitality Wireless prior to the end of a monthly term, you will be required to pay a prorated amount of the MRCs for the month and the full amount for any NRCs or other charges for the month and any accrued but unpaid amounts related to Service and Equipment through the effective date of termination.

Hospitality Wireless may use new or reconditioned parts to repair the Equipment, or replace the Equipment with new, repaired, or reconditioned Equipment, all at Hospitality Wireless's sole discretion.

All replaced products or parts become the property of Hospitality Wireless and will not be returned.

(iv) Exceptions and Exclusions.

(v) No Other Express Warranties and Limitation of Implied Warranties. This Limited Warranty is the only express warranty extended by Hospitality Wireless in connection with the Equipment. Implied warranties which may not be disclaimed are limited in time to the duration of this Limited Warranty, and all remedies for all such implied warranties are restricted to the remedy and procedure set forth for this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, however arising, and all such other warranties are hereby disclaimed. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Hospitality Wireless and its affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees, or agents from any and all third-party claims, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees and punitive damages arising from: (a) violation of any provision of this Agreement by you or others who use your Service, Software, and/or Equipment; (b) installation, modification, or use of the Service, Software, and/or Equipment by you and/or any parties who use your Service, Software, and/or Equipment, with or without your permission; (c) claims for libel, slander, invasion of privacy, or infringement of any intellectual property rights arising from the use of the Service, Software, or the Internet; (d) patent infringement arising from your acts combining or using the Service in connection with facilities or equipment (circuit, apparatus, system or method) furnished by you; or (e) negligent acts, errors, or omissions, gross negligence, or intentional misconduct by you.

16. Dispute resolution

THIS SECTION 16 SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY ENTERPRISE CLASS CUSTOMER.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS (AS OPPOSED TO ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, MASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR COORDINATED BASIS), THROUGH PRE-SUIT DISPUTE RESOLUTION, AND IF APPROPRIATE, BY COURT ACTIONS DECIDED BY A JUDGE (NOT BY A JURY). IT LIMITS YOUR TIME TO NOTIFY HOSPITALITY WIRELESS OF A DISPUTE AND LIMITS YOUR TIME TO FILE ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, ACTION, OR LAWSUIT. THIS SECTION GOVERNS ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, ACTIONS, OR LAWSUITS BETWEEN YOU AND HOSPITALITY WIRELESS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, SERVICES, SOFTWARE, AND/OR EQUIPMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY.

(a) Pre-filing requirements

Before filing or commencing any lawsuit, claim, or action in any court, you must first present any claim or dispute to Hospitality Wireless in writing in a manner reasonably sufficient to allow Hospitality Wireless a fair and adequate opportunity to resolve the dispute without litigation ("Notice of Claim").

Any Notice of Claim should be emailed to legalaffairs@hospitalitywireless.net or mailed to Hospitality Wireless, Attn: Litigation Department, 106 N. Lookout Pt., Payson, AZ 85541.

THESE PRE-FILING REQUIREMENTS ARE MATERIAL TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDING YOU AND HOSPITALITY WIRELESS WITH SUBSTANTIVE, NOT MERELY PROCEDURAL, RIGHTS. YOUR FAILURE TO ABIDE BY THEM MAY BE GROUNDS FOR DISMISSAL OF ANY LAWSUIT.

(i) Notice of Claim must be on an individual basis

Your Notice of Claim must be on your own individual behalf and shall not be made on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis. Without limiting the generality of the requirement that any Notice of Claim must be on an individual basis, it is a violation of this agreement for two or more claimants to include claims in a single Notice of Claim or attempt to settle simultaneously their disputes, unless the two claimants are joint, named account holders of the same Hospitality Wireless account.

(ii) Fair and adequate opportunity to resolve the dispute.

(A) Hospitality Wireless commits to work with you in good faith to resolve any disputes you may have. For your individual Notice of Claim to provide Hospitality Wireless a fair and adequate opportunity to resolve the dispute without litigation, your Notice of Claim must include:

(1) the Hospitality Wireless account number(s) for the account(s) related to the claim or dispute;

(2) a reasonable description of the facts underlying the claim or dispute, including relevant dates when you experienced billing, service, equipment, software or other issues;

(3) an estimate of your money damages and how those damages were calculated;

(4) a description of any relief sought other than money damages; and

(5) supporting documentation, including copies of your bills supporting any billing dispute.

In addition to the information provided in your Notice of Claim, you also agree to respond within a reasonable time to any request from Hospitality Wireless for additional information to support or clarify your claim or dispute.

(B) If your individual Notice of Claim includes any claim based on any alleged false statement, fraud, deception, or misrepresentation, then your individual Notice of Claim also must identify:

(1) the content of any alleged false or misleading statement or advertisement;

(2) the approximate date(s) on which you received, heard, or read that statement or advertisement;

(3) how you received that statement or advertisement; and

(4) if the alleged false or misleading statement was made by a particular person, that person's name or affiliation with Hospitality Wireless (e.g., Hospitality Wireless employee, Hospitality Wireless-authorized service technician, or contractor).

(C) Using information you provide pursuant to Sections 16(a)(ii)(A)and (B), Hospitality Wireless will use reasonable efforts to search for and identify records of your account history, if any, that might be helpful in resolving your dispute. Hospitality Wireless will also attempt to contact you directly to discuss your dispute. If you do not provide the information required by Sections 16(a)(ii)(A) and (B), Hospitality Wireless is not obligated to search its records.

(iii) 60-day pre-filing period

If you and Hospitality Wireless are unable to resolve your claim or dispute within 60 days after Hospitality Wireless receives your Notice of Claim that meets the requirements of Sections 16(A)(I) and 16(A)(II) ("60-Day Pre-Filing Period"), you may file a court action consistent with these Dispute Resolution Terms. If your Notice of Claim is deficient, incomplete, or defective because it is not made on an individual basis, as set forth in Section 16(a)(i), or because it does not include the information required by Section 16(a)(ii), then the 60-Day Pre-Filing Period will not begin until the first date on which Hospitality Wireless has received information correcting those deficiencies or defects. Further, if your Notice of Claim otherwise meets the requirements of Sections 16(a)(i) and 16(a)(ii), but you fail to respond to a reasonable request from Hospitality Wireless for missing or additional information about your claim or dispute, then the 60-Day Pre-Filing Period will pause and not begin again until you provide the requested missing or supporting information.

(iv) Pre-filing tolling period

Any deadline to file a lawsuit will be extended up to a maximum of 60 consecutive days after Hospitality Wireless receives your Notice of Claim ("Pre-Filing Tolling Period"). If you fail to respond to a reasonable request from Hospitality Wireless for missing or additional information, then the Pre-Filing Tolling Period will end 14 consecutive days after the date of Hospitality Wireless's request.

(b) Waiver of any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis

By this Agreement, both you and Hospitality Wireless waive any right to pursue any disputes and claims on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis.

(i) Examples of class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis

Without limiting the generality of the requirement that disputes and claims be pursued and resolved in court solely on an individual basis, it is a violation of this agreement for two or more claimants to (1) include claims in a single Notice of Claim; (2) pursue their claims in a single court action; or (3) attempt to settle simultaneously their disputes, unless the two claimants are joint, named account holders of the same Hospitality Wireless account.

(ii) Consideration for waiver of any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis

As consideration for the Waiver of Any Right to Proceed on a Class, Representative, Mass, Collective, Consolidated, or Coordinated Basis in this Section 16(b), Hospitality Wireless agrees that:

(A) Hospitality Wireless will reimburse you for filing fees you incur for filing any lawsuit in small claims court, so long as your filing was consistent with these Dispute Resolution terms, regardless of whether you prevail on any claim in small claims court;

(B) If you both (1) prevail on a claim in court and (2) receive an award of actual damages that exceeds Hospitality Wireless's highest offer of settlement during the 60-Day Pre-Filing Period, Hospitality Wireless will reimburse you for your reasonable attorneys' fees, as well as any costs and expenses you or your attorney reasonably incurred for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your claims. The calculation of actual damages for purposes of this section excludes any award of attorneys' fees, statutory minimum damages, statutory multiple damages or penalties, consequential damages, exemplary or punitive damages, and any other costs or expenses incurred in pursuing your claims;

(C) Nothing in this Agreement, including the limitations on liability in Section 13, will prevent or limit the recovery of statutory remedies;

(D) The damage cap in Section 13(f)(iv) is increased so that it will not exceed the total charges you paid to Hospitality Wireless in the twelve months prior to notifying Hospitality Wireless of your dispute. If you give notice of a dispute after terminating service, the damage cap in Section 13(f)(iv) is increased so that it will not exceed the charges you paid to Hospitality Wireless during the last twelve months before terminating service; and

(E) Hospitality Wireless will waive its right to any award of attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses to which it might be entitled as a prevailing party in the lawsuit you filed, except that Hospitality Wireless retains its right, as allowed by applicable law, to seek attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses on the basis that your claim was frivolous or otherwise brought in bad faith or for the purpose of harassment.

Your right to attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses provided by this Section 16(b)(ii) is not intended to limit your rights to recover these items under applicable law (if any such rights exist). If applicable law entitles you to a greater award of attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses than allowed under Section 16(b)(ii), you may recover that greater amount. However, you may not recover duplicative awards of attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses under both Section 16(b)(ii) and applicable law.

(iii) Consideration for waiver of any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis not severable from waiver of any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis.

If a court deems Section 16(b) (Waiver of Any Right to Proceed on a Class, Representative, Mass, Collective, Consolidated, or Coordinated Basis) unenforceable as to your claims or action, then Section 16(b)(ii) (Consideration for Waiver of Any Right to Proceed on a Class, Representative, Mass, Collective, Consolidated, or Coordinated Basis) shall also be unenforceable and severed from this agreement.

(c) Waiver of right to jury trial.

BOTH YOU AND HOSPITALITY WIRELESS WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS. To the extent court action is appropriate under this Agreement, any trial of your claims and Hospitality Wireless's defenses or counterclaims shall be to a judge or court presiding without a jury (i.e., a "bench trial"), except as provided in Section 16(d).

(d) Waiver of jury trial not servable from waiver of any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis.

If a court deems Section 16(b) (Waiver of Any Right to Proceed on a Class, Representative, Mass, Collective, Consolidated, or Coordinated Basis) unenforceable as to your claims or action for any reason, the Waiver of Right to Jury Trial in Section 16(c) shall be unenforceable and severed from this agreement.

(e) Limitation on time to file any claim, dispute, or lawsuit.

YOU MUST NOTIFY HOSPITALITY WIRELESS OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AS SOON AS IT IS DISCOVERED, BUT IN ANY EVENT, WITHIN 6 MONTHS AFTER IT IS DISCOVERED. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU DISPUTE ANY CHARGE ON YOUR INVOICE, YOU MUST NOTIFY HOSPITALITY WIRELESS OF THE DISPUTE WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE DATE OF YOUR INVOICE. YOU ACCEPT ALL CHARGES NOT DISPUTED WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF YOUR DISPUTED INVOICE. ANY LAWSUIT ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ARISES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW. IF A COURT DEEMS EITHER OF THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS UNENFORCEABLE, THE LIMITATION(S) FOUND UNENFORCEABLE SHALL BE EXTENDED BY THE MINIMUM TIME NECESSARY TO MAKE THE LIMITATION(S) ENFORCEABLE.

17. Waiver of right to jury trial and any right to proceed on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis for Enterprise Class customers.

This Section 17 shall apply only to Enterprise Class customers. BOTH YOU AND HOSPITALITY WIRELESS WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR CLAIMS. By this Agreement, both you and Hospitality Wireless waive any right to pursue any disputes and claims on a class, representative, mass, collective, consolidated, or coordinated basis. Without limiting the generality of the requirement that disputes and claims be pursued and resolved in court solely on an individual basis, it is a violation of this agreement for two or more claimants to (1) pursue their claims in a single court action, or (2) attempt to settle simultaneously their disputes, unless the two claimants are joint, named account holders of the same Hospitality Wireless account.

18. Limitation on time to file any claim, dispute, or lawsuit for Enterprise Class customers.

This Section 18 shall apply only to Enterprise Class customers. YOU MUST NOTIFY HOSPITALITY WIRELESS OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AS SOON AS IT IS DISCOVERED, BUT IN ANY EVENT, WITHIN 6 MONTHS AFTER IT IS DISCOVERED. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU DISPUTE ANY CHARGE ON YOUR INVOICE, YOU MUST NOTIFY HOSPITALITY WIRELESS OF THE DISPUTE WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE DATE OF YOUR INVOICE. YOU ACCEPT ALL CHARGES NOT DISPUTED WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF YOUR DISPUTED INVOICE. ANY LAWSUIT ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ARISES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW. IF A COURT DEEMS EITHER OF THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS UNENFORCEABLE, THE LIMITATION(S) FOUND UNENFORCEABLE SHALL BE EXTENDED BY THE MINIMUM TIME NECESSARY TO MAKE THE LIMITATION(S) ENFORCEABLE.
