Provision of HubDialer® Services. HBD will make available to Customer the use of HubDialer Predictive, HubDialer Preview, and HubDialer Texting (the “HubDialer Services”) through the HBD dedicated website (the “Site”) or through a HBD dedicated telephone number. In order to access and use the HubDialer Services, Customer must provide at its own expense telephone, computer equipment and Internet service.
HubDialer® Predictive is a predictive dialer that is autonomous. The Predictive dialer uses heuristics to determine when to make calls and how many calls to place for a campaign. Agents indicate when they are ready to receive their next call, and dialing is automatic. Fees for HubDialer Predictive Service are priced per agent minute. An agent minute is a 60-second period, or any portion thereof, during which the call agent is connected to HubDialer Predictive, whether or not such agent is connected to a recipient of a call. The patch-through feature also uses agent minutes for the duration of the patched-through portion of the call. Prepaid minutes are non-refundable, non-transferable and expire one year after the date of purchase.
HubDialer® Preview is a service that is agent-controlled. Agents indicate when to place the next call to a target on the campaign’s list. When indicated, the Preview dialer will place a single call. Dialers for Preview and Predictive run as separate system processes, and campaigns created in the Preview service cannot be moved to the Predictive service, and vice-versa. Fees for HubDialer Preview Service are priced per agent minute. An agent minute is a 60-second period, or any portion thereof, during which the call agent is connected to HubDialer Predictive, whether or not such agent is connected to a recipient of a call. The patch-through feature also uses agent minutes for the duration of the patched-through portion of the call. Prepaid minutes are non-refundable, non-transferable and expire one year after the date of purchase.

Limitation of Liability.
(a) Customer agrees that HBD will not be liable for any interruption, delay or failure to
perform the HubDialer Services due to any factor beyond HBD’s control. Without limiting the
generality of the preceding sentence, HBD assumes no responsibility for any error, omission,
interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission arising from or caused by
scheduled downtime, which HBD may periodically schedule for the Site for maintenance or
other purposes. Unplanned system outages also may occur. HBD shall have no liability
whatsoever for unplanned system outages arising from our caused by fires, floods, natural
disasters, riots, strikes, labor disputes, war (declared or undeclared), terrorist acts,
actions of governmental authorities, inability to secure equipment, transmission bandwidth,
telephone system or communications lines failures, failures of Internet service providers,
denial of service attacks or service failures cause by malware or viruses, theft or
destruction or unauthorized access to, or alteration of, user communications. HBD is not
responsible for any interruptions caused by, or problems or technical malfunction of, any
telephone network or lines, computer systems, servers or providers, computer equipment,

including injury or damage to persons receiving telephone messages or to any other person's
phone or computer related to or resulting from participating or downloading materials in

times be limited to the amount paid, if any, by Customer to HBD for the use of the HubDialer

employees from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and
nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with Customer use of the

Code § 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor

if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

employees and agents (the “HBD Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any damages, losses,
judgments, costs (including reasonable attorneys fees), fines or penalties incurred by any of the

out of Customer’s use of HubDialer Services or from the breach by Customer or any Authorized User of
any warranty, representation or covenant of Customer set forth in these Terms.

electronic (facsimile or email) notice to the other party. HBD may also, at its sole discretion,
immediately terminate the Terms and Customer’s access to the Site should Customer's conduct fail to
conform to any provision of the Terms. HBD shall not be liable to Customer or any third party for
any such termination. Upon termination of these Terms or the Agreement, Customer's right to use the
HubDialer Services shall immediately cease. Termination shall not affect the duty to make payment
for Services performed. Paragraphs 5-15 shall survive any termination or expiration of the
Terms.
Miscellaneous. Neither party to this Agreement may delegate its obligations or assign its rights
under this Agreement to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of the other,
except that HBD may assign its rights or delegate its obligations, in whole or in part, to any of
its affiliated entities. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to Colorado’s choice of law rules. Any action
whatsoever to enforce any right under this Agreement shall be brought only in the courts of the
State of Colorado. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties relating to the
subject matter contained in this Agreement, supersedes all prior written and oral agreements and
understandings relating to such subject matter and cannot be modified or amended except by a written
instrument executed by both parties to this Agreement.
