  1. Fees and Payment

 

Unless otherwise indicated on the EVCS, each time you charge your vehicle at an EVCS utilizing the EVSTART Solution (each, a “Charging Session”) you will be required to pay usage fees to EVSTART (“EVCS Usage Fees”). The EVCS Usage Fees will include any and all excise, sales, use, value-added or other applicable taxes. The EVCS Usage Fees will be calculated using the usage rate determined by the applicable Site Host and will be displayed in the EVSTART Solution. If required by the applicable Reseller or Site Host, you may also be required to pay an access fee the amount of which will be set out in the EVSTART Solution (an “Access Fee”, and together with the EVCS Usage Fees, the “Fees”) for your access to an EVCS Location. You acknowledge and agree that, unless otherwise set out in an applicable Reseller Agreement or Site Host Agreement, EVSTART will collect your payment of the Fees and remit any portion of it to the Site Host as determined in the Site Host Agreement.

a. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT: (I) THE FEES ARE ESTABLISHED BY EVSTART AND IN SOME CASES BY EVSTART AND THE SITE HOST; (II) EVCS USAGE FEES MAY VARY BASED ON THE APPLICABLE SITE HOST OR THE APPLICABLE EVCS LOCATION; AND (III) EVSTART AND/OR THE SITE HOST MAY, IN THEIR DISCRETION AS PER THE SITE HOST AGREEMENT, CHANGE EITHER OR BOTH OF: (A) THE EVCS USAGE FEES; AND (B) THE ACCESS FEE. IT IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY TO REMAIN INFORMED ABOUT THE CURRENT FEES FOR THE EVCS YOU USE BEFORE STARTING A CHARGING SESSION. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EVSTART HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO THE FEES. YOU HEREBY REMISE, RELEASE AND FOREVER DISCHARGE EVSTART AND THE EVSTART PARTIES OF AND FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS WHATSOEVER WHICH YOU EVER HAD, NOW HAVE OR MAY HEREAFTER HAVE, WHETHER AT COMMON LAW, IN EQUITY, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER NOW KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, ARISING FROM, IN CONNECTION WITH OR IN RESPECT OF THE FEES.   

b. At EVSTART’s option and election and subject to Section 7(e), we may: (i) charge you the EVCS Usage Fees at the end of each Charging Session; or (ii) delay immediate processing of the charges for a particular Charging Session and later charge you the aggregate Fees you incurred in the immediately preceding 30-day period (the “Billing Cycle”). If we do not charge you at the end of each Charging Session, we may nonetheless process a pre-authorization for the amount of the Fees owing.  All Fees payable by you will be set out in the EVSTART Application and EVSTART will prepare and send to you, at the then-current contact information that you have on file with us, an invoice for the total amount of Fees incurred in connection with each Charging Session. You agree to remit payment for all such Fees in accordance with the payment terms set out in this Section 7. 

c. All Fees paid by you to EVSTART are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by EVSTART. Unless otherwise itemized in the EVSTART Application, the Fees include all applicable taxes. All EVCS Usage Fees will be in the currency identified in the EVSTART Application for the applicable Fees.

d. If EVSTART is collecting your payment of the Fees, then you will provide EVSTART or, if applicable, a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) with the information necessary to process a payment from you, including the billing information requested on the EVSTART Solution or the applicable Payment Processor’s platform. The processing of payments and your relationship with the Payment Processor will be subject to the terms, conditions, practices and privacy policies of the Payment Processor, if any, in addition to these Terms of Use. 

e. We are not responsible for any error by, or other acts or omissions of, any Payment Processor. You may pay for each Charging Session by credit card or any other manner then available on the EVSTART Solution or applicable Payment Processor’s platform. By submitting your payment information to us or the Payment Processor, you authorize us or the Payment Processor to charge the applicable payment method at our or their convenience, or as provided in the applicable payment network rules, including multiple attempts to charge the applicable payment method where prior charging attempts are unsuccessful. You represent and warrant that you will not use any credit card or other form of payment, unless you have all necessary authorization to do so.  We and any Payment Processor are not liable in the event persons acting with or without your permission use your credit card or other method of payment to make purchases on or through the EVSTART Solution or the Payment Processor’s platform. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that any Payment Processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment.  We reserve the right to remove or block any payment methods where such payment method has been repeatedly declined.

f. If EVSTART is collecting your payment of the Fees, you must provide current, complete and accurate information for any billing relating to your Account. You must promptly update all information to keep the billing information relating to your Account current, complete and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date), and you must promptly notify us if your payment method is cancelled (e.g., for loss or theft). Changes to such information can be made in your Account settings through the EVSTART Solution. If you fail to provide any of the foregoing information, you agree that we reserve the right to suspend your access to the EVSTART Solution until all due amounts are paid in full and terminate your Account and these Terms of Use. 

g. EVSTART may terminate these Terms of Use and your access to the EVSTART Solution if you fail to pay any Fees or other amounts payable to EVSTART by the date such payment becomes due.

Except as prohibited or restricted by applicable law, you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of courts in Ontario.

    2.

    3. Waiver. Our failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms of Use will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. A waiver of any provision of these Terms of Use must be in writing and a waiver in one instance will not preclude enforcement of such provision on other occasions.

    4. Severable. These Terms of Use apply to the extent permitted by applicable law and unless restricted or prohibited by applicable law. If any of the provisions contained in these Terms of Use are determined to be void, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be severed from these Terms of Use and all other provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect.

These Terms of Use will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties, their permitted successors and permitted assignees.
