Terms & Conditions VIPER SMARTSTART TERMS AND CONDITIONS Your SmartStart is an “always-on” connected device that communicates over the GSM network. Just like a cell phone, your SmartStart requires a service plan from a 3rd party provider to communicate over the network. Your SmartStart comes with one year of service included with the device purchase. After the first year, service plan renewals are available for $29.99/year. Our goal is to keep the service plan costs as low as possible; however, service plan terms and cost are subject to change without notice. Your annual service plan was designed to cover all the activity that a customer would use under any reasonable circumstances. Like all other "unlimited” services such as cell phone data plans, we do have a limit on the number of uses per month that we can enforce on a case by case basis in the event that a device is malfunctioning or a subscriber is clearly abusing the service (e.g. commercial purposes). In the unlikely event that you approach the usage limits of your service plan, you’ll receive a notice with an option to opt up to a higher usage plan for an additional fee. Feature availability of your SmartStart system may vary based on features enabled by the installer, the type of compatible Viper remote start/security system installed (with the VSM100 module), and the type of vehicle. Visit www.viper.com/SmartStart for more information on SmartStart hardware or installation requirements.

CalAmp is constantly innovating in order to provide the best possible experience for its customers. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services may change from time to time without prior notice to You. The Services are for vehicle location, if applicable, and communication with the Unit only, and are not intended as emergency services.

CalAmp may invoice You for system usage beyond the number of actions included under Your selected Service Plan at CalAmp’s standard access unit and/or action rates in accordance with the terms of your specific Service Plan.

Though CalAmp may revise the rates of Service Plans at any time, the rate you will pay for any Service Plan you purchase will not change for the initial term of Your subscription. You may renew any Service Plan or purchase additional Service Plans at the prevailing rates for those Service Plans at the time of renewal of the Service Plan or purchase of additional Service Plans.

All amounts paid for prepaid airtime are non-refundable. Prices relating to the Services purchased pursuant to this Agreement are exclusive of taxes including, without limitation, any federal, state, local or foreign excise, sales, use, property, retailer’s occupation or similar taxes, or any duties, customs or similar charges. You are solely responsible for and shall pay any and all sales, excise, use, transfer or other taxes, and fees assessed or imposed by any federal, provincial, state, county, municipal or local taxing authority in connection with the use of the Services.

CalAmp reserves the right in its absolute discretion to suspend or terminate the Services if any charges payable by You under this Agreement are delinquent in excess of thirty days from the due date or You are otherwise in default under this Agreement.

If Your account is placed in the hands of an outside agency for collection, You agree to pay reasonable attorney fees and collection costs, even though legal proceedings may not be filed, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ADVISE ALL OCCUPANTS OR USERS OF YOUR OR, IF APPLICABLE, YOUR CUSTOMERS’ ASSETS EQUIPPED WITH A UNIT ABOUT HOW INFORMATION ABOUT THEM MAY BE COLLECTED, USED AND DISCLOSED BY CALAMP. USE OF WEBSITE: CalAmp maintains a website that You may access in connection with Services You purchase from CalAmp or CalAmp’s authorized agents. You agree that You will not use or attempt to use this website for any purpose: 1) that is any way unlawful or prohibited, 2) that transmits any unauthorized or unsolicited advertisements, solicitations, schemes, spam, flooding, or other unsolicited e-mail or unsolicited commercial communications, 3) that transmits any viruses, 4) that interferes with CalAmp’s network services; 5) that attempts to gain unauthorized access to CalAmp’s network services, or 6) that impairs or limits CalAmp’s ability to operate this website or any other person’s ability to access or use the website. You agree that You will only access or use information related to You in accordance with the Services You purchase, and not for any illegal purposes. You agree that you will access this website at your own risk. YOU ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND RISK FOR THE USE OF THIS WEBSITE, SERVER AND THE INTERNET GENERALLY. You understand that CalAmp cannot and does not ensure continuous access to the website. Access may be interrupted due to technical limitations, such as heavy use and server malfunctions, or other circumstances such as maintenance. CalAmp reserves the right to modify this website at any time without Your consent. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT CALAMP WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO, YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, INABILITY TO USE, OR RELIANCE ON THE WEBSITE OR ANY MATERIALS, INFORMATION, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OBTAINED OR ACCESSED THROUGH THE WEBSITE. FOR THOSE JURISDICTIONS THAT EITHER DO NOT ALLOW OR PLACE RESTRICTIONS UPON THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF DAMAGES IN CERTAIN TYPES OF AGREEMENTS, THIS LIMITATION SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO PERMIT THE MAXIMUM EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: CalAmp shall not be liable to You or to any other person for any loss or damage caused by the use of the Services or for any interruption of the Services, regardless of cause. In no event shall CalAmp’s liability to You exceed the amount paid by You for the Services in question. CalAmp shall not be liable to You or any third party for consequential, incidental, general, special or exemplary damages, including, without limitation, loss of or damage to Your vehicles or assets or loss of profits, revenues or data, even if CalAmp has been advised of the possibility of such damages. You agree to indemnify and hold CalAmp harmless from and against any and all losses or damages caused by the use of the Services or for any interruption of the Services. No action shall be brought for any breach of this Agreement more than one year after accrual of such cause of action except by CalAmp for money due on an open account. Certain of the above limitations may not apply in some states. To the extent that any such limitations are precluded in a given state, such preclusion shall not affect any other limitations not so prohibited or precluded. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. CALAMP EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY MAY LAST, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES; FORCE MAJEURE: CalAmp shall have no liability for a failure to provide, or for delay in providing the Services due directly or indirectly to the Limitations of Technology or other causes beyond the control of CalAmp or its subcontractors. If CalAmp is unable to wholly or partially perform the Services because of any cause beyond its control, CalAmp may terminate this Agreement without any liability to You, other than the refund of any amounts paid for unused Services. LIMITATIONS OF TECHNOLOGY: You have read, understand and acknowledge the following inherent technical limitations relating to the use of the Services: (a) Wireless Network Coverage and Service. Complete coverage of the service area at all times is improbable. The existence of adverse conditions, such as short-term unpredictable meteorological effects and sky wave interference from distant stations, can interrupt the Services at times. Certain circumstances such as weather, tunnels, underground structures, terrain, high-rise buildings, enclosed or underground parking or driving areas, faulty installation, motor ignition and other electrical noises and radio signals from external sources may interfere with the Services. CalAmp utilizes wireless networks with broad coverage areas to access moving vehicles and assets. There are still areas within the service area that have not yet been included in the wireless coverage areas. Therefore, if a vehicle travels out of the available service area, communication with that vehicle is unavailable until it returns to the available service area. Also, from time to time, poor coverage areas (“holes”) occur even in fully developed areas, thereby limiting system performance. Other wireless network environmental issues may affect the communications link between the Units and the CalAmp Online System. Environmental issues may include; service interruptions, network congestion, roaming and similar access issues. (b) Global Positioning System (GPS) Drift and Urban Canyon. GPS is a satellite based positioning system providing expansive coverage throughout the world. The GPS antenna must have a direct line of sight to the satellites. If said path is impaired (e.g. underground parking lots or the shadow of tall buildings), it can affect the ability of the Services to recognize an accurate location. (c) Tampering with the Unit. If the unit is tampered with, disconnected, or the unit completely removed, the functionality of the Units and Services will be jeopardized. (d) Privacy. The Units and Services have many complex elements and are not guaranteed against eavesdroppers, hackers, denial of service attacks, viruses or interceptors. You acknowledge and agree, and undertake to inform any users of the Units and Services, that CalAmp and any of its Service Providers shall not be liable for any lack of privacy or security resulting from use of CalAmp products or Services. In addition, to the extent You have a privacy right in the location, characteristics, performance or operation of a vehicle equipped with a Unit, You agree to voluntarily waive such right. (e) Availability of Cellular Technology/Mapping. Services are based on cellular technology which may become obsolete in the future as a result of changes in wireless technology or actions by telecom regulators with respect to cellular technology in mapping applications. In such event, CalAmp shall have no obligation to issue a refund or furnish substitute services. In addition, CalAmp assumes no responsibility for the accuracy or inaccuracy of any maps upon which the Services are based. (f) Capacity Limitation. The parties recognize that unusual concentrations of usage may occur in certain locations. CalAmp shall incur no liability for its inability to provide adequate Services hereunder arising from or related to a lack of network capacity on the equipment which results from the aforesaid usage concentration, and nothing herein shall require CalAmp to expend any capital to insure capacity for Your use of the Services. TERM AND TERMINATION; RENEWAL: This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for the term of the Service Plan You purchase in connection with the purchase of any Unit, and shall automatically renew upon the purchase of any additional Service Plans for the Unit being activated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall terminate immediately without liability if the authorizations held by CalAmp are revoked by the FCC or other authority governing the provision of the Services. CalAmp may terminate this agreement, including the Services, at any time following the expiration of Your initial Service Plan upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to You. ARBITRATION. This Arbitration Provision describes when and how a Claim may be arbitrated. A “claim” is any claim, dispute or controversy between You and CalAmp that in any way arises from or relates to this Agreement and includes: initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims; disputes based on contract, tort, fraud and other intentional torts (at law or in equity, including any claim for injunctive or declaratory relief); disputes based on constitutional grounds or on laws, regulations, ordinances or similar provisions; and disputes about the validity, enforceability, arbitrability or scope of this Arbitration Provision or this Agreement. IF YOU OR WE CHOOSE ARBITRATION, ANY CLAIM WILL BE DECIDED BY ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY A JURY TRIAL. DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL ARE LIMITED BY THE ARBITRATION RULES OF THE ARBITRATION ADMINISTRATOR. YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS IN A CLASS ACTION (“CLASS ACTION WAIVER”). CLAIMS BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST ONE BUYER MAY NOT BE JOINED WITH CLAIMS BY A CO-BUYER OR CO-SIGNER. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. Either You or CalAmp may require any Claim to be arbitrated, except neither party is obligated to arbitrate a Claim that is brought and maintained as an individual (as opposed to a class) claim and that involves an amount in dispute or claim for damages of less than $25,000. Arbitration begins when a party gives written notice to the other party of the intent to require arbitration. This notice may be given before or after a lawsuit has been started over the Claim or with respect to other Claims brought later in the lawsuit. Arbitration of a Claim must comply with this Arbitration Provision and the applicable rules of the arbitration Administrator. We will not choose to arbitrate an individual claim that you bring against us in small claims court or your state’s equivalent court, if any. If that Claim is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court, or if You modify the claim to seek class relief, we then may choose arbitration. The arbitration Administrator shall be the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), 335 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017, www.adr.org, (800) 778-7879. If the AAA is unwilling to serve as the Administrator, the parties shall attempt to agree upon a substitute Administrator. If the parties are unable to so agree, each shall select one representative, and the two representatives shall select a third party, and the two representatives and the third party shall select the Administrator. Any arbitration hearing that you attend must take place at a location reasonably convenient to your residence. You give up Your right to participate in a class action. This means that You may not be a representative or member of any class of claimants or act as a private attorney general in court or in arbitration with respect to any Claim. Notwithstanding any other part of this Arbitration Provision, the validity and effect of the Class Action Waiver must be determined only by a court and not by an arbitrator. If a court limits or voids the Class Action Waiver, then this entire Arbitration Provision (except for this paragraph) will be null and void. An Administrator charges fees to administer an arbitration proceeding. This may include fees not charged by a court. When You choose an Administrator, You should carefully review the fees charged by the Administrator. CalAmp will pay these fees if required by applicable law, or if otherwise necessary to ensure that this Arbitration Provision is enforceable. CalAmp will not ask You to pay or reimburse CalAmp for any fees CalAmp pays the Administrator. If CalAmp requires a Claim to be arbitrated, CalAmp will pay or reimburse You for up to $1,000 in fees that would otherwise be charged to You by the Administrator. However, if either CalAmp or You require a Claim to be arbitrated, You may tell CalAmp in writing that You are unable to pay the fees charged by the Administrator or that You believe those fees to be excessively high. If You do so, CalAmp will pay or reimburse You for up to all of the fees that would otherwise be charged to You by the Administrator if your request is reasonable and in good faith. Each party must pay the expense of that party’s attorneys, experts, and witnesses, regardless of which party prevails in the arbitration, unless applicable law and/or this Arbitration Provision provide otherwise. In addition to the parties’ rights to obtain discovery under the arbitration rules of the Administrator, either party may submit a written request to the arbitrator to expand the scope for discovery normally allowable under the arbitration rules of the Administrator. The Arbitrator will have discretion to grant or deny that request. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. In response to a timely request from either party, the arbitrator must provide a brief written explanation of the basis for any award. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding, except for any right of appeal provided by the Federal Arbitration Act. However, if the amount of the award exceeds $100,000 or is a “take nothing” award, a party can appeal the award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the Administrator, which must reconsider any aspect of the initial award requested by the appealing party. Reference in this Arbitration Provision to the “arbitrator” means the panel of arbitrators if an appeal of the arbitrator’s decision has been taken. Subject to applicable law, costs of any appeal will be borne by the appealing party regardless of the outcome of the appeal. This Arbitration Provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not by any state arbitration law. The arbitrator must apply applicable statutes of limitations and claims of privilege recognized at law, and applicable substantive law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator is authorized to award all remedies permitted by substantive law that would apply if the action were pending in court. This Arbitration Provision survives the repayment of all amounts You owe CalAmp, the transfer of this Agreement, and any bankruptcy by You, to the extent not inconsistent with applicable bankruptcy law. Except as provided above, if any part of this Arbitration Provision is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, this Arbitration Provision and the Agreement will remain enforceable. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Arbitration Provision and the applicable arbitration rules or the other provisions of this Agreement or any other contract between You and CalAmp, this Arbitration Provision will govern. You may opt out of this arbitration provision by sending CalAmp written notice of your intent to do so by registered mail, provided You send the notice within 10 days of the date of this Agreement. If You are a corporation, partnership, association or other business or commercial entity, You agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph 17: (1) CalAmp will not pay any part of Your costs and expenses of arbitration unless ordered to do so by the arbitrator; (2) any arbitration under this Agreement will be held in Lake Forest, California; and (3) You will not have the right to opt out of this arbitration provision. GENERAL: No amendment or modification hereof shall be binding upon CalAmp unless such amendment or modification is in writing signed by an authorized officer of CalAmp. If any term hereof is contrary to, prohibited by or deemed invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such term shall be deemed omitted to the extent prohibited or invalid but the remainder of these Terms and this Agreement shall not be invalidated and shall be given effect so far as possible. Any waiver of any right in, or breach of, this Agreement shall not be a continuing waiver and shall not prevent any claim of breach of the same term or any other term of this Agreement. This Agreement is fully assignable by CalAmp to any person or entity and shall inure to the benefit of such assignee or successor. You may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of CalAmp. By signing (through electronic acceptance), You agree to all terms of this Agreement, including the arbitration provision under Section 17.
