MANAGER, ITS AFFILIATES, THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “MANAGER PARTIES”) MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE CONTENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED, TO ITS ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, OR RELIABILITY. MANAGER PARTIES SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO LIABILITY FOR TIMELINESS, RELIABILITY, SEQUENCE, TRUTH, ACCURACY, OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY INFORMATION CONVEYED TO THE USER OR FOR ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR OMISSIONS THEREIN OR FOR ANY DELAYS OR INTERRUPTIONS OF THE CONTENT FROM WHATEVER CAUSE. YOU AGREE THAT YOU USE THE WEB SITE AND THE CONTENT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

THE MANAGER PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEB SITE WILL OPERATE ERROR FREE OR THAT THIS WEB SITE, ITS SERVER, OR THE CONTENT ARE FREE OF COMPUTER VIRUSES OR SIMILAR CONTAMINATION OR DESTRUCTIVE FEATURES. IF YOUR USE OF THE WEB SITE OR THE CONTENT RESULTS IN THE NEED FOR SERVICING OR REPLACING EQUIPMENT OR DATA, NO MANAGER PARTY SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THOSE COSTS.

THE WEB SITE AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. MANAGER PARTIES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE WARRANTY OF TITLE MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTIES’ RIGHTS, AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY MANAGER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) RESULTING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEB SITE AND THE CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF A MANAGER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Some states do not allow exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. IN SUCH STATES, THE LIABILITY OF MANAGER PARTIES SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

  1. Indemnification.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Manager, from and against any and all claims, actions or demands, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising or resulting from (i) your access to, use or misuse of the Content or Web Site; (ii) your breach of this Agreement or any representation, warranty or covenant made by you in this Agreement; (iii) your violation of any applicable law, statute, ordinance, regulation or of any third party’s rights; or (iv) claims asserted by third parties which, if proven, would place you in breach of representations, warranties, covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement. Manager shall provide notice to you of any such claim, suit, or proceeding and shall assist you, at your expense, in defending any such claim, suit or proceeding. Manager reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification under this section. In such case, you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting Manager’s defense of such matter.

  1. Termination of the Agreement.

9.1 Manager reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to restrict, suspend, or terminate this Agreement and your access to all or any part of the Web Site or the Content, at any time and for any reason without prior notice or liability.

  1. User Must Comply with Applicable Laws.

10.1 This Web Site is based in Boston, Massachusetts. We make no claims concerning whether the Content may be downloaded, viewed, or be appropriate for use outside of the United States. If you access the Web Site or the Content from outside of the United States, you do so at your own risk. Whether inside or outside of the United States, you are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with the laws of your specific jurisdiction.

10.2 The United States controls the export of products and information. You expressly agree to comply with such restrictions and not to export or re-export any of the Content to countries or persons prohibited under the export control laws. By downloading the Content, you are expressly agreeing that you are not in a country where such export is prohibited or are a person or entity for which such export is prohibited. You are solely responsible for compliance with the laws of your specific jurisdiction regarding the import, export, or re-export of the Content.

  1. U.S. Government Restricted Rights.

The Content is provided with “RESTRICTED RIGHTS.” Use, duplication, or disclosure by the Government is subject to the restrictions contained in 48 CFR 52.227-19 and 48 CFR 252.227-7013 et seq. or its successor. Use of the Web Site or Content by the Government constitutes acknowledgement of our proprietary rights in the Web Site and Content.

  1. Choice of Law and Forum.

This Agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without respect to its conflict of laws provisions. You expressly agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Boston in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid by any court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. Failure of Manager to act on or enforce any provision of the Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other provision in this Agreement. No waiver shall be effective against Manager unless made in writing, and no such waiver shall be construed as a waiver in any other or subsequent instance.

  1. Severability and Integration.

Except as expressly agreed by Manager and you, this Agreement, together with your obligations with respect to the Subscription Agreement(s), if any, along with all other notices, disclaimers, policies and agreements displayed and/or made available through the Web Site, constitutes the entire Agreement between you and Manager with respect to the subject matter, and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter. The section headings are provided merely for convenience and shall not be given any legal import. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of our successors, assigns, licensees, and sublicensees. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the Subscription Agreement(s), if any, under which you are authorized to use the Services, then the terms of such Subscription Agreement(s) shall govern. If any part of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion will be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect.

Any information submitted or provided by you to the Web Site might be publicly accessible. Important and private information should be protected by you. Manager is not liable for protection of privacy of electronic mail or other information transferred through the Internet or any other network that you may use.

  1. Privacy.

Manager uses the personally identifiable information that it gathers primarily to communicate with you and, generally, it does not share this information with third parties. Manager uses return email addresses to answer the email that it receives. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties. However, Manager may disclose such information if it has received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when it believes that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.

Manager may also disclose personally identifiable information in special cases when it has reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against you or someone else who may be violating these Terms or may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally) with Manager’s rights or property, other users of the Web Site, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. Manager may disclose or access personally identifiable information when it believes in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that it deems necessary to maintain, service, and improve its products and services.

Manager does not sell or rent personally identifiable user information to anyone. Manager will notify you at the time of data collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a third party, and you will always have the option of not permitting the transfer.

Manager uses cookies to store and track information about Authorized Users. A “cookie” is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Use of the secure areas of our Web Site requires that Authorized Users accept cookies. Manager uses session cookies in order to uniquely identify an Authorized User so that the Authorized User can login and have access to the secure area for which the Authorized User has authorization. Unlike most cookies, however, this session cookie is not retained after the Authorized User’s browser is closed.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while Manager strives to protect your personally identifiable information, it cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to it, and you do so at your own risk. Once Manager receives your transmission, it makes its best effort within the Web Site to ensure the security of the information on Manager’s systems.

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, Manager has put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information it collects online. Providers and/or third parties linked to our Web Site have separate privacy and data collection practices. Manager has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies. For more information regarding each provider, its site, and its privacy policies, return to that provider’s home page and click on its information link. All investors also receive a Privacy Notice which is incorporated by reference herein.

  1. Dispute Resolution.

All disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Web Site (“Disputes”) will be settled by final and binding arbitration conducted in Massachusetts, by a neutral arbitrator, in accordance with this Agreement and the then-current commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. Each party will bear its own expenses, except that the prevailing party may recover the filing costs and the expenses of the arbitrator from the other party. Any award of the arbitrator will be in writing and will state the reasons for the award. Judgment upon an award may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will not have the power to order pre-hearing discovery of documents or the taking of depositions, but may compel attendance of witnesses and the production of documents at the hearing. The parties, their representatives and participants and the arbitrator will hold the existence, content and result of the arbitration in confidence, except to the limited extent necessary to enforce a final settlement agreement or to obtain or enforce a judgment on an arbitration decision and award. Any Disputes relating to your failure to pay billed charges for the Services are exempt from the requirement of binding arbitration. You agree that Manager will be entitled to obtain preliminary injunctive relief to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement against you pending a final determination in arbitration.
