Each Invoice will include (i) the Subscription Fee, (ii) any Charging Fees (iii) any Idle Fees based on the rates set forth on the Cover Sheet, and (iv) applicable Taxes (the “Total Use Fee”). Prior to the Charge Start Date, Customer shall pay the first Subscription Fee. Subscription Fees are payable in advance; Charging Fees and Idle Fees are payable in arrears.

6.2 Payments. Customer is required to provide payment information to authorize Forum to automatically draw payments for Customer’s specified payment account. Payments will be drawn following issuance of the Invoice (the “Payment Date”). If the draw is not honored on the Payment Date, Customer will be assessed a $35 administrative fee to reprocess the payment and amounts due shall accrue interest at the lesser of the ten percent (10%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed under applicable law (the “Interest Rate”).

In the event that Customer is unable to receive the Services in accordance with this Agreement and Customer believes such inability was solely the result of Forum’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Customer must notify Forum in writing within fifteen (15) days of the unavailability of such Services. Failure to notify Forum in writing within such thirty (30) day period constitutes a waiver of Customer’s right to make any claim for such unavailability. Following receipt of written notice from Customer, Forum shall diligently investigate the cause and the duration of the unavailability. If it resulted from Forum’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Forum will, as Forum’s sole and exclusive liability for the unavailability of the Services, credit to Customer a prorated amount of the Subscription Fee determined by Forum based on the duration and scope of the unavailability. In Forum’s sole discretion, Forum may make Services available to Customer from an alternate Service Location(s) within a ten (10) -mile radius of the Service Location as identified on the applicable Cover Sheet.

FOR BREACH OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR WHICH AN EXPRESS REMEDY OR MEASURE OF DAMAGES IS PROVIDED, THE RIGHTS OF THE NON-DEFAULTING PARTY AND THE LIABILITY OF THE DEFAULTING PARTY SHALL BE LIMITED AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, AS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE FULL, AGREED UPON, AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICABLE TRANSACTION, AND NOT AS A PENALTY, AND ALL OTHER DAMAGES OR REMEDIES ARE WAIVED. IF NO REMEDY OR MEASURE OF DAMAGES IS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED, OR IF A REMEDY OR MEASURE OF DAMAGES IS EXPRESSLY NONEXCLUSIVE, THEN THE NON-DEFAULTING PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO IT AT LAW OR IN EQUITY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE LIABILITY OF THE DEFAULTING PARTY SHALL BE LIMITED TO DIRECT, ACTUAL DAMAGES ONLY AND ALL OTHER DAMAGES AND REMEDIES ARE WAIVED. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, FORUM’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS IN RESPECT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS) WILL BE THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID BY CUSTOMER TO FORUM OVER THE LESSER OF TWELVE (12) MONTHS OR THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID BY CUSTOMER THROUGH THE DATE OF THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY.

17. DISPUTES

17.1 Disputes Subject to Arbitration. THE PARTIES AGREE TO RESOLVE DISPUTES ONLY BY ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT AS DISCUSSED BELOW. EACH PARTY HEREBY SURRENDERS ITS RIGHT TO BRING A CLAIM IN COURT OR IN FRONT OF A JURY. THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT. EXCEPT FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT CASES OR AS SPECIFICALLY NOTED BELOW, ANY DISPUTE THAT IN ANY WAY RELATES TO OR ARISES OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR SCOPE OF ANY PORTION OF THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE), OR FROM ANY EQUIPMENT, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES CUSTOMER RECEIVES FROM FORUM, OR FROM EFFORTS TO COLLECT AMOUNTS CUSTOMER MAY OWE FORUM FOR SUCH SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTES CUSTOMER HAVE WITH FORUM’S EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS, WILL BE RESOLVED BY ONE OR MORE NEUTRAL ARBITRATORS BEFORE THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) AS EXPLAINED BELOW. THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. UNLESS THE PARTIES AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE COUNTY WHERE THE APPLICABLE SERVICE LOCATION IS LOCATED. IF THE AAA REFUSES TO ENFORCE ANY PART OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION, THE PARTIES WILL SELECT ANOTHER ARBITRATION PROVIDER. IF THERE IS NO AGREEMENT, THE COURT WILL CHOOSE. UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY TO ARBITRATE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY CLAIM THAT ALL OR PART OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS VOID FOR ANY REASON.

17.2 Claims under $25,000. FOR CLAIMS OF TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($25,000) OR LESS, CUSTOMER MAY DECIDE WHETHER TO HAVE THE ARBITRATION CARRIED OUT BASED ONLY ON DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED TO THE ARBITRATOR, OR BY A HEARING IN PERSON OR BY PHONE. ALTERNATIVELY, FOR CLAIMS WITHIN THE JURISDICTIONAL LIMIT OF THE SMALL CLAIMS COURT IN THE STATE IN WHICH THE SERVICE LOCATION IS LOCATED, EITHER PARTY MAY CHOOSE TO BRING AN INDIVIDUAL ACTION IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT INSTEAD OF PROCEEDING IN ARBITRATION; FURTHERMORE, IF THE CLAIMS IN ANY REQUEST OR DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION COULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, THEN EITHER PARTY MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE THE CLAIMS HEARD IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, AT ANY TIME BEFORE THE ARBITRATOR IS APPOINTED, BY NOTIFYING THE OTHER PARTY OF THAT CHOICE IN WRITING. IF THIS PROVISION OR THE

LIMITATION ON BRINGING ACTIONS TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT IS FOUND TO BE INVALID, THEN THIS PROVISION SHALL BE SEVERABLE AND THE MATTER WILL PROCEED IN ARBITRATION; IN NO WAY WILL THIS PROVISION ALLOW FOR AN ACTION TO BE BROUGHT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS.

17.3 No Collective Arbitrations or Class Actions. THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT ALLOW CLASS OR COLLECTIVE ARBITRATIONS EVEN IF THE AAA PROCEDURES OR RULES APPLICABLE TO SUCH ARBITRATIONS DO ALLOW FOR SUCH CLASS OR COLLECTIVE ARBITRATIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD MONEY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. NO CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR GENERAL INJUNCTIVE RELIEF THEORIES OF LIABILITY OR PRAYERS FOR RELIEF MAY BE MAINTAINED IN ANY ARBITRATION HELD UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. ANY QUESTION REGARDING THE ENFORCEABILITY UNDER APPLICABLE LAW OR INTERPRETATION OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT AND NOT THE ARBITRATOR.

17.4 Notice of Dispute. IF EITHER PARTY INTENDS TO SEEK ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTY SEEKING ARBITRATION MUST FIRST NOTIFY THE OTHER PARTY OF THE DISPUTE IN WRITING AT LEAST SIXTY (60) DAYS IN ADVANCE OF INITIATING THE ARBITRATION. NOTICE TO FORUM SHOULD BE SENT TO FORUM AT THE CONTACT ADDRESS LISTED ON THE APPLICABLE COVER SHEET. THE NOTICE MUST INCLUDE ENOUGH INFORMATION TO ALLOW FORUM TO IDENTIFY THE CUSTOMER’S ACCOUNT AS WELL AS TO ASSESS AND ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE CLAIM, INCLUDING THE NAME OF CUSTOMER, THE APPLICABLE SERVICE LOCATION, A DESCRIPTION OF THE CLAIM, THE SPECIFIC FACTS SUPPORTING THE CLAIM, THE DAMAGES CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN SUFFERED AND THE RELIEF BEING SOUGHT. THE SUFFICIENCY OF THIS NOTICE OF DISPUTE IS AN ISSUE TO BE DECIDED BY A COURT PRIOR TO THE FILING OF ANY DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION. IF CUSTOMER HAS PROVIDED THIS INFORMATION AND FORUM AND THE CUSTOMER ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE WITHIN SIXTY (60) DAYS, EITHER PARTY MAY THEN PROCEED TO FILE A CLAIM FOR ARBITRATION. EACH PARTY SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS OWN FEES AND EXPENSES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH THE ARBITRATION; PROVIDED, THAT, IF THE ARBITRATOR DETERMINES THAT CUSTOMER’S CLAIM WAS FILED FOR PURPOSES OF HARASSMENT OR IS PATENTLY FRIVOLOUS, THE ARBITRATOR WILL REQUIRE CUSTOMER TO REIMBURSE FORUM FOR ANY FILING, ADMINISTRATIVE OR ARBITRATOR FEES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ARBITRATION.

17.5 Coordinated Arbitrations. IF TWENTY-FIVE (25) OR MORE CUSTOMERS INITIATE NOTICES OF DISPUTE PURSUANT TO SECTION 17.4 ABOVE OR FILE A COMPLAINT IN COURT, WHICH RAISE SIMILAR CLAIMS, AND COUNSEL FOR THE CUSTOMERS BRINGING THE CLAIMS ARE THE SAME OR COORDINATED FOR THESE CUSTOMERS, THE CLAIMS SHALL PROCEED IN ARBITRATION IN A COORDINATED PROCEEDING. IN THE FIRST STAGE, TWENTY-FIVE (25) ARBITRATIONS WILL PROCEED AND COUNSEL FOR THE CUSTOMERS AND COUNSEL FOR FORUM SHALL EACH SELECT FIVE (5) CASES TO PROCEED FIRST IN ARBITRATION IN INDIVIDUAL BELLWETHER PROCEEDINGS BEFORE SEPARATE ARBITRATORS. THE ARBITRATORS ARE ENCOURAGED TO RESOLVE THE CLAIMS WITHIN ONE HUNDRED TWENTY DAYS (120) DAYS OF APPOINTMENT OR AS SWIFTLY AS POSSIBLE THEREAFTER, CONSISTENT WITH FAIRNESS TO THE PARTIES. AFTER THE FIRST STAGE IS COMPLETED, THE PARTIES MUST ENGAGE IN A SINGLE MEDIATION OF ALL REMAINING CASES. IF THE PARTIES CANNOT AGREE HOW TO RESOLVE THE REMAINING CASES AFTER MEDIATION, THEY WILL REPEAT THE PROCESS OF SELECTING AND FILING FIVE (5) CASES TO BE RESOLVED IN INDIVIDUAL BELLWETHER PROCEEDINGS BEFORE SEPARATE ARBITRATORS, FOLLOWED BY MEDIATION. ADDITIONAL CASES INVOLVING SIMILAR CLAIMS BROUGHT BY THE SAME OR COORDINATED COUNSEL SHALL NOT BE FILED IN ARBITRATION UNTIL THE ARBITRATIONS AND MEDIATION FOR PRIOR SETS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. THIS PROCESS MAY CONTINUE UNTIL THE PARTIES ARE ABLE TO RESOLVE ALL OF THE CLAIMS, EITHER THROUGH SETTLEMENT OR ARBITRATION. IF SUCH A PROCESS IS INITIATED, THE FILING OF A NOTICE OF DISPUTE BY CUSTOMER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 17.4 OR FILING OF A COMPLAINT IN COURT WILL TOLL ALL APPLICABLE STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS FOR THAT CUSTOMER’S DISPUTE UNTIL THE COMPLETION OF THE PROCESS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION. A COURT WILL HAVE AUTHORITY TO ENFORCE THIS SECTION INCLUDING BY ENTERING AN INJUNCTION TO PROHIBIT FILINGS IN VIOLATION OF THIS SECTION.

17.6 Application of Arbitration Award . AN ARBITRATION AWARD AND ANY JUDGMENT CONFIRMING IT APPLIES ONLY TO THAT SPECIFIC CASE AND MAY NOT BE USED IN ANY OTHER CASE EXCEPT TO ENFORCE THE AWARD ITSELF.

17.7 Severability. IF A COURT, PURSUANT TO SECTION 17.3, DETERMINES THAT THE PROHIBITION ON CLASS ARBITRATIONS OR THE LIMITS ON THE ARBITRATOR’S AUTHORITY CANNOT BE ENFORCED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW AS TO ALL OR PART OF A DISPUTE, THEN THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE WILL NOT APPLY TO THAT DISPUTE OR PART OF THE DISPUTE, WHICH MAY PROCEED IN COURT EITHER ONCE THE ARBITRATED MATTERS HAVE CONCLUDED OR SOONER IF THE COURT SO REQUIRES.

17.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NO ACTION WILL BE BROUGHT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS AND THE PARTIES UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY WAY. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS SECTION MAY BE FILED TO SHOW A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT

18. ASSIGNMENT BY FORUM. Forum shall have the unqualified right to assign, pledge, transfer, mortgage, or otherwise convey any of its interests in this Agreement, in whole or in part, without notice to, or consent of, Customer. Forum has the right to assign this Agreement to any affiliate or as collateral for any financing purposes in each case on notice to Customer. If Forum collaterally assigns this Agreement to a lender and provides notice to that effect to Customer, then it will not seek to exercise its rights as the result of any of Default by Forum without Customer first giving to the lender a copy of any notice of Default and an opportunity to cure the same. Any such lender shall have thirty (30) days to cure any such Default from the later of (a) receipt of the notice of Default or (b) expiration of Forum’s applicable cure period.

CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER BY FORUM OR ANY ASSIGNEE SHALL NOT MATERIALLY CHANGE CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

19. MISCELLANEOUS

19.1 Notices. Any notices in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing (including email or other electronic form of writing) and may be given by either Party to the other by email, personal delivery, overnight courier, registered mail, or certified mail with return receipt requested, in each case addressed to the Parties at the addresses appearing on the Cover Sheet, but each Party may change the address by written notice to the other Party. A notice shall be effective on the Business Day when received if received during 7:30 am to 5:30 pm on a Business Day; otherwise, the notice shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day.

19.2 Entire Agreement; Modifications. This Agreement includes the Cover Sheet and all attachments thereto and supersedes any and all agreements, either oral or written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and contains all the covenants and agreements between the Parties with respect to such subject matter. Each Party to this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, have been made by any Party, or anyone acting on behalf of any Party, which are not contained herein, and that no other agreement, statement, or promise not contained in this Agreement shall be valid or binding. Any modification of this Agreement will be effective only if it is in writing signed by each Party.

19.3 Change in Law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Subscription Fee, the Charging Fees and Idle Fees are premised on Forum’s (a) receiving certain economic incentives, such as tax incentives and electric vehicle rebates, (b) generating certain Environmental Attributes that have a monetary value, such as low carbon fuel standard credits (collectively, (a) and (b) are the “Incentives”) and (c) having access to electricity at current retail rates. If there is a Change in Law after the Effective Date that eliminates or reduces the value of the Incentives or increases the cost of having access to electricity, then Forum may, on written notice to Customer, identify the change and advise Customer that the Subscription Fee, the Charging Fees and Idle Fees will be increasing by a specified amount due to such Change in Law. Any such increase will go into effect on the first day of the month occurring twenty (20) days after issuance of such notice, unless, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such notice, Customer elects to terminate this Agreement by giving notice of termination, which shall become effective at midnight on the third Business Day after Customer’s written notice of termination to Forum. As used herein, “Change in Law” means any change in any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Charging Services. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) a change in the charging fees that results from changes to the electricity rates charged by the local utility the effects of which are adjusted on a quarterly basis as set forth on the cover sheet, or (ii) a change in the subscription fee, charging fee or idle fee that results from changes in taxes, surcharges or assessments which are recovered pursuant to Section 6.4, in each case, does not trigger the customer’s right to terminate this agreement as set out in this Section 19.3.

19.5 Severability. If one or more of the provisions in this Agreement is deemed invalid, void or unenforceable by law, then the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be held to be excessively broad or partially invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, then it shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law.

19.6 Survival. All provisions of this Agreement that either expressly by their terms survive or by their nature are intended to survive or come into or continue in force and effect after the termination or expiration of this Agreement shall remain in effect and be enforceable following such termination or expiration.

19.8Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
