Terms and Conditions

Diversified Funding, Inc. dba Invest Express (together, “Invest Express,” “we,” “us,” “our”  or the “Company“) operate the website located at investexpress.co (the “Site“). Our mission is to connect businesses that need capital (“Businesses“) with people who may be able to provide funding (“Investors“). Invest Express offers a web based solution to facilitate fundraising and also provides educational materials about the process and risks of investing, and crowdfunding in general. The services, features, and content that may be offered by Invest Express in connection with the Site and/or Invest Express’s business are collectively referred to as the “Services.”

1. Acceptance of the Terms of Service; Changes

By accessing the Site and/or using the Services, you agree to be bound by all of the provisions of the Terms of Service (the “TOS“). IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE TOS, OR IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE, YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS THE SITE OR USE THE SERVICES.

This TOS provides that all disputes between you and Invest Express will be resolved by BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract, except for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury, and your claims cannot be brought as a class action. Please review Section 15.3 (“Dispute Resolution“) for the details regarding your agreement to arbitrate any disputes with Invest Express.

As used in the TOS, the terms “you” and “your” mean each individual or entity that accesses, browses or uses the Site and/or the Services in any manner. If you are accessing the Site and/or using the Services on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant to Invest Express that you have the authority to bind the entity you represent to the TOS.

Invest Express may modify the TOS or add or remove terms at any time, and each such modification, addition or deletion will be effective immediately upon posting on the Site. Your use of the Site or the Services following any such posted modification, addition or deletion constitutes your agreement to be bound by and your acceptance of the TOS as so modified. It is therefore important that you review the TOS regularly. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS OF THE MODIFIED TOS, YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS THE SITE AND/OR USE THE SERVICES, AND YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE DOING SO.

15. Governing Law; Disputes; Arbitration.

The User Agreements shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under a User Agreement, then you and Invest Express agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Salt Lake County, UTAH for the purpose of litigating any dispute.

EACH OF YOU AND Invest Express HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIMS, COUNTERCLAIMS, CROSS-CLAIMS, OR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS) ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY USER AGREEMENT. FURTHER, EACH OF YOU AND Invest Express HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE OTHER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE OTHER WOULD NOT IN THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION.

15.2 Disputes With Other Users.

You are solely responsible for your interactions with users of the Site and the Services, and any other parties with whom you interact on or through the Site, the Services and/or the Linked Sites. Invest Express reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with these disputes.

15.3 Dispute Resolution.

15.3.1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Invest Express in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 15.3.2, you and Invest Express agree that every dispute between you and any Invest Express affiliate arising in connection with the User Agreements will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of any User Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this TOS. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS TOS, YOU AND Invest Express ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

15.3.2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 15.3.1, nothing in any User Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim; or (e) pursue any available remedies under federal or state securities law.

15.3.3 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Invest Express will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules“) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this TOS, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Invest Express.

15.3.4 Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice“). Invest Express’s address for Notice is: investexpress.co, Inc., 1 Broadway Cambridge MA 02142. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand“). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Invest Express may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Invest Express must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Invest Express will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Invest Express in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.

15.3.5. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this TOS, Invest Express will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Salt Lake County, Utah, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Invest Express for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

15.3.6 No Class Actions. YOU AND Invest Express AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Invest Express agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

15.3.7 Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Invest Express makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Invest Express’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Invest Express’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Invest Express will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

15.3.8. Enforceability. If Section 15.3.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 15.3 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 15.3 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 15.1 will govern any action arising out of or related to any User Agreement.

16. Indemnity.

You agree to defend Invest Express, its subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors and assignees and their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, agents, partners and employees (the “Invest Express Indemnitees“), from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, demands or other proceedings brought by or on behalf of any third party, and to indemnify and hold the Invest Express Indemnitees harmless against any losses, liabilities and other damages (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees), in any case arising out of or related to (i) your access to and/or use of the Site and the Services, including, without limitation, your use of the Site and the Services in connection with any transaction in securities; (ii) a violation or breach by you, or any user of your account, of any provision of the TOS or of any Additional Terms, including, without limitation, a breach of any of the representations, warranties or agreements set forth in the TOS and the Additional Terms; and/or (iii) any content that you post on or through the Site or the Services.

If any provision of the User Agreements are held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision (i) is deemed severable from the User Agreements and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions which shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to comply with the applicable law.
