This Agreement governs your relationship with the Company and your use
of and access to all services and products provided, including any content, functionality, and services offered
on or through, the Company’s website of WWW.RECITE.IO (the
“Website”, and the foregoing services collectively, the

the Services, whether as a trial user or paid subscriber, you are bound by the terms of this Agreement and the
Company’s Privacy Policy, as all may be amended from time to time and
which are incorporated herein by reference (collectively the “Terms”). The Company’s Privacy Policy describes what the Company can do with information you provide the Company or
information the Company may otherwise receive regarding you. By accessing or using the Services, you further
acknowledge and agree to the terms of the Privacy Policy, including the
transfer of your information to other countries for storage, processing and use. If you
do not want to agree to the Terms, you acknowledge you must not, and agree not to, and hereby cannot, access or
use the Services. By accessing, using or uploading or downloading any
information or materials to or from the Services, or by indicating your assent to these Terms by creating an
account, clicking “sign up”, “register”, “join”, “subscribe”, or
any similar mechanism, you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use
the Services.
- Important Notices.
- Notice Regarding Dispute Resolution: These Terms contain provisions that govern how
disputes between you and the Company are resolved, including an agreement to arbitrate, which will, unless you
reside in the European Union, with limited exception, require you to submit claims you have against us to
binding and final arbitration and limit you to claims against the Company on an individual basis, unless you
opt-out in accordance with the instructions below.
- If you access or use the Services on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that
you have authority to bind such entity and its Affiliates to these Terms and that it is fully binding on them.
In such case, the term “you” will refer to such entity and its Affiliates. If you do not have
authority, you may not access or use the Services. These Terms contain disclaimers of warranties and limitations
on liability that may be applicable to you.
- Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean, as to any individual, corporation, partnership, limited
liability company, association, trust, joint venture, unincorporated entity, governmental authority or any
agency or department thereof, or any other entity of any kind (each a “Person”), any other Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more
intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or under common control with such Person. As used in this
definition, “control” (including, with correlative
meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) shall mean possession,
directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies (whether
through ownership of securities or partnership or other ownership interests, by contract or otherwise).
- Requirements for Use. You may not use the Services unless
all the following apply to you, and you represent and warrant
that you meet all of the following requirements:
- You are an adult over the age of eighteen (18) years old with the ability to
legally bind yourself to these Terms;
- You are legally allowed to use the Services where you live and anywhere you access
the Services;
- You are not using the Services or accepting these Terms on behalf of any other
entity, such as a company or organization, unless you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms;

- You have not been banned, suspended, or otherwise restricted by the Company, from

- Updates. The Company may modify this Agreement, any of these Terms, or
any additional terms that apply in part or in whole to the Services to, for example, reflect changes to the law
or changes to the Company’s Services. You should look at these Terms regularly. The Company
will post notice of modifications to these Terms on the applicable web pages. The Company will post notice of
modified additional Terms in the applicable Service as soon as is reasonably possible and will attempt to notify
you through other means at the addresses provided to the Company. Changes will not apply
retroactively and will become effective no sooner than fourteen days after they are posted. However, changes
addressing new functions for the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective
immediately. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of revised Terms
means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you do not agree to the modified Terms for the Services, you
should and must discontinue your use of the Services immediately. If there is a conflict between these Terms and
any additional or subsequent terms, the additional or subsequent terms will control for that conflict. These
Terms control the relationship between the Company and you. They do not create any third-party beneficiary
rights. Your failure to comply with these Terms, and the Company’s failure to take immediate action will
not be construed as a waiver of any rights the Company may have. If it turns out that a particular term or
provision in these Terms is not enforceable, this will not affect any other term or provision. Except for the
statements in this document and the documents expressly incorporated herein by reference, no statement by the
Company or anyone associated with the Company, whether verbal or written, can modify or supplement these Terms
unless the modification or supplement is stated expressly in writing by referring to this Agreement.

third-party service providers, payment card networks and payment processors to receive, store and encrypt your

account settings. If you paid through a third party (such as Stripe), you may change your Payment Method through

your subscription or add new categories of service to your account, such changes may result in a new billing
date. You agree to pay the subscription fees, and other charges you incur in connection with your account,
whether on a one-time or subscription basis. The Company reserves the right to increase subscription fees, any
associated taxes, or to institute new fees at any time upon reasonable advance notice.

at the start of the monthly or annual period, as applicable. These fees will auto-renew until your subscription
is terminated. Your subscription fee will be the same as your initial charges unless you are otherwise notified
in advance. You may cancel your subscription at any time, as described below.

- Intellectual Property; Infringement.
- The Services and Website, their entire contents, features, and functionality
(including, but not limited to, all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the
design, selection, and arrangement thereof) are owned by the Company, its licensors, or other providers of such
material and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and
other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. This Agreement permits you to use the Website for your
personal, non-commercial use only. The Company reserves all rights not expressly granted hereunder.
- You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly
display, publicly perform, republish, or transmit any of the material on our Services or Website, except as
follows:
- Your computer may temporarily store copies of such materials in RAM incidental
to your accessing and viewing those materials.
- You may store files that are automatically cached by your web browser for
display enhancement purposes.
- You may print or download copies of a reasonable number of pages of the Website
for your own use and not for further reproduction, publication, or distribution.
- If we provide desktop, mobile, or other applications for download, you may
download a single copy to your computer or mobile device solely for your own use, provided you agree to be bound
by our end user license agreement and any other applicable terms, including without limitation these Terms, for
such applications.

otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, no right, title, or interest in or to the Services or any
content on the Services is transferred to you, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Company.
Any use of the Services not expressly permitted by our Terms is a breach of our Terms and may violate copyright,
trademark, and other laws and rights.
- Copyright Infringement; DMCA.
- The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that
material appearing on the internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. The Company also reviews
claims of trademark infringement. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by the Company infringe
your copyright or trademark rights, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be
removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or
electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is
allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work or trademark claimed to have been infringed
(or, if multiple copyrighted works or trademarks located on the Services are covered by a single notification, a
representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the
subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow the Company to locate the
material on the Services; (d) the name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address (if available) of the
complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material
in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright or trademark owner, its agent, or the law; and
(f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the
complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Please be advised that the Company reserves the right to disregard any complaints that do not meet the above
requirements. If the Company determines that the materials alleged to infringe your copyright or trademark
rights do not require removal, the Company may only remove those materials only pursuant to a court order
declaring the content or use of the materials unlawful.
- If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been
wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Counter-notices must include the
following information: (a) your name, address, and telephone number; (b) the source of the content that was
removed; (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the content was removed
in error; (d) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial
district in which your address is located; or, if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial
district in which the Company may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who
provided the original complaint; and (e) a physical or electronic signature (for example, typing your full
name).
- Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Services must meet the
then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA (see https://copyright.gov/title17/92appb.html) and should be sent to the agent identified below. Consult your legal advisor before filing a
notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there may be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

- California Notice. Under California Civil Code Section
1789.3, California Services members are entitled to the following specific consumer rights notice: The Complaint
Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs may be
contacted in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at
(800) 952-5210.
- Arbitration; Choice of Law.
- You hereby agree to arbitrate any dispute that you have with the Company. YOU AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES WITH THE COMPANY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION WITH THE AMERICAN
ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) IN DENVER,
COLORADO, unless the dispute meets the requirements for small claims court and is filed in Denver
County, Colorado. If for any reason this agreement to arbitrate is determined by a court or arbitrator to be
unenforceable, you agree that the federal and state courts with jurisdiction over Denver County, Colorado will
have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute involving you and the Company, and you hereby consent to such
jurisdiction and venue. Any arbitration will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, Consumer Due
Process Protocol, and Supplementary Procedures for Resolution of Consumer-Related Disputes. For disputes that
involve a claim of less than $10,000 USD, the arbitration will be conducted only by telephone, online, or based
solely on written submissions and not by personal appearance of any party or witness. This Agreement, these
Terms, the Privacy Policy, and any and all disputes between you and the
Company will be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, excluding any applicable choice of law provision.
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR ARBITRATION DEMAND MUST BE COMMENCED OR SUBMITTED TO THE AAA WITHIN
ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE ALLEGED INJURY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED OR REASONABLY COULD HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED. IF SUCH
CAUSE OF ACTION IS NOT FILED WITHIN THE ONE (1) YEAR PERIOD DESCRIBED ABOVE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR DEMAND IS
PERMANENTLY BARRED
- You and the Company further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual
capacities only, and not as a class action or other representative action. You further specifically agree that
you will not, and hereby waive the right to, participate in a class action claim against the Company. Nor will
you participate in any other kind of representative action or arbitration. Nor may an arbitrator consolidate
your claims with the claims of any other Person. Nor may an arbitrator grant any relief on your claims
that applies to someone else (such as injunctive relief that applies to a class of Persons), except where such a
contractual limitation is not permitted by law. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class-action
waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason, or that an arbitration can proceed on
a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and
you and the Company shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes. This Section shall not limit the
Company’s recourse for any material violations of Section 9.
- Jury and Class Action Waiver. WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS
OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SERVICES FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST
BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED
CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER
APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE
PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND. This Section shall not limit the
Company’s recourse for any material violations of Section 9.
- Thirty-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt
out and not be bound by the arbitration- and class-action-waiver provisions set forth in this section by sending
written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address via United States mail with proof of
delivery:
Recite, LLC
Re: Arbitration Opt Out,
PO Box 16249,
Golden, CO 80402
The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of registering to use the
Services; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with these Terms. If you opt out of
these arbitration provisions, the Company also will not be bound by them. In addition, if you elect to opt out of
these arbitration provisions, the Company may terminate your use of the Services.
- Termination. You agree that the Company may, under certain
serious circumstances and without prior notice, immediately terminate your account and/or access to the
Services. Cause for such termination shall include, but not be limited to, (a) breaches or violations of these
Terms or other incorporated agreements, policies or guidelines, (b) requests by law enforcement or other
government agencies, (c) a request by you (self-initiated account deletions), (d) discontinuance or
material modification to the Services (or any portion thereof), (e) unexpected technical or security issues or
problems, (f) extended periods of inactivity, and/or (g) nonpayment of any fees owed by you in connection with
the Services. Termination of your use of the Services may include (x) removal of access to all offerings
within the Services, (y) deletion of your information, files, account, membership, and Content associated with
your account, and (z) barring of further use of the Services. Further, you agree that all terminations for cause
shall be made in the Company’s sole discretion and that the Company shall not be liable to you or any
third party for any termination of your account or access to the Services.
- Waiver. No waiver by the Company of any term or condition
set out in this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver
of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
- Severability; Reformation. If any term or provision of
these Terms is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any applicable jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality,
or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of these Terms or invalidate or render
unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. If any one or more of the provisions or parts of
a provision contained in these Terms shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in
any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a
provision of these Terms; and these Terms shall, to the fullest extent lawful, be reformed and construed as if
such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of a provision, had never been contained herein, and
such provision or part reformed so that it would be valid, legal, and enforceable to the maximum extent
possible. Without limiting the foregoing, if any provision (or part of provision) contained in these Terms shall
for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, activity, or subject, it shall be construed by
limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent compatible with then existing applicable
law. Furthermore, the word “including” or any variation thereof, as used here and in all of these
Terms, means “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general
statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it.
- Cumulative Remedies. All rights, powers, and remedies
provided to the Company under this Agreement, these Terms, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in
equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any thereof by the Company shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by the Company.
- Entire Agreement. The Terms constitute the sole and entire
agreement between you and the Company regarding the Services and supersede all prior and contemporaneous
understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the
Services.
