Flexdrive - Rental Agreement

FLEXDRIVE VEHICLE RENTAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Updated as of May 17, 2024

These Flexdrive Vehicle Rental Terms and Conditions and other vehicle rental transaction documents and a return record with computed fees and charges shall collectively constitute the rental agreement (the “Rental Agreement” or “Agreement”) between You (the “Renter”, “you”, “your”), a member of the Flexdrive rental program (“Program”) and Flexdrive Services, LLC (“we”, “us”, “Flexdrive”) for each vehicle you rent under the Program. This Agreement is effective as of the date of your acceptance (e.g., by E-Signature), regardless of whether you use the Services (the “Effective Date”).

PLEASE BE ADVISED: THIS RENTAL AGREEMENT CONTAINS PROVISIONS THAT GOVERN HOW CLAIMS YOU AND FLEXDRIVE HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER CAN BE BROUGHT (SEE SECTION 21 BELOW). THESE PROVISIONS WILL, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, REQUIRE YOU TO SUBMIT CLAIMS YOU HAVE AGAINST FLEXDRIVE TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, GROUP OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

As used in this Agreement, “Lyft” means Lyft, Inc., a transportation network company for which Renter has been approved to use the Lyft network on an independent contractor basis (the “Lyft Platform”), and “Express Drive Program” means the program through which Flexdrive shall provide vehicles for rent to individuals who may drive on the Lyft Platform.

Pursuant to this Agreement, you and Flexdrive agree as follows:

REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT YOURSELF

A. . All information provided by you to Flexdrive and Lyft is true and complete, and you consent to Lyft sharing that information with us to the extent necessary for us to verify your eligibility to become a member of the Program and rent vehicles from us and otherwise to perform the fleet management, rental and ancillary activities described herein. To the extent this information changes during the term of this Agreement, as defined in Section 4 below (including without limitation, if you receive, are convicted of or admit to any traffic or moving violations), you will promptly notify Flexdrive and/or Lyft of the change. You have no authority to bind Flexdrive, and you do not hold yourself out as an employee, agent or authorized representative of Flexdrive or Lyft.

B. As part of the application process to become a member of the Program, Flexdrive, Lyft and/or their licensed insurance carriers may order one or more consumer reports on you. A consumer report may contain information on driving records and criminal activity, among other things. In the event that your membership in the Program is denied to you based wholly or partly on information in a consumer report, you will be notified of this fact and given the name and address of the consumer reporting agency making the report. Once your membership has been approved, you can reserve a Rental Car through the Express Drive program. Flexdrive maintains the right to suspend and/or revoke your membership in the Program at any time. You may terminate your membership at any time.

C. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Any information submitted or collected in connection with the Services or your participation in the Program is subject to our Privacy Policy, the terms of which can be found on the Flexdrive website at www.flexdrive.com/privacy-policy/.

FLEXDRIVE SERVICES

Under the Program, Flexdrive manages a fleet of vehicles and offers such vehicles for rent (each, a “Rental Car”) to Renters and enables Renters who are approved to drive on the Lyft Platform, in connection with the rental and use of such Rental Cars, to use the corresponding websites, mobile applications, online tools and features supplied by Lyft and/or Flexdrive for the rental usage and management by the Renters (provision of Rental Cars and such additional services are collectively, the “Services”). Renter acknowledges and agrees that (i) Flexdrive may not own all such Rental Cars, which may be provided by third parties subject to lease agreements (or, in certain states, loan agreements) with Flexdrive; (ii) Flexdrive provides its Renters the ability to rent Rental Cars for specified short term periods of up to the legal limit for rentals in the area where you rent; and (iii) while Flexdrive offers a method to connect drivers with suitable vehicles for their needs, it does not provide transportation services or act in any manner as a transportation carrier.

Any use of or access to the Services is subject to certain eligibility requirements, and the Services are not available to or authorized for use by any users previously removed as a Renter by Flexdrive or by any users or persons acting on behalf of an organization or entity and not in his or her personal or individual capacity, except as required by applicable law.

TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR AND TO MAINTAIN PARTICIPATION IN THE EXPRESS DRIVE PROGRAM, YOU MUST PASS AND MAINTAIN THE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS TO BE A LYFT DRIVER.

USE OF OUR SERVICES

Your membership in the Program and use of a Rental Car as a Renter must at all times comply with all the terms of this Agreement, as updated from time to time, and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations. Flexdrive reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement at any time, effective upon making the Agreement available to you, which may include posting an updated version of the Agreement on our website: www.flexdrive.com. You are responsible for regularly reviewing this Agreement. Continued use of our Services after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.

A. NATURE OF RENTAL; RENTAL PERIOD

(1) This is a contract for the rental of a Rental Car. The rental is made in connection with Renter’s membership in the Program. Renter does not have the right to sublease the Rental Car or assign any of his/her rights under this Agreement. The initial rental period for the Rental Car is 7 calendar days (i.e., one calendar week) (the “Initial Rental Period”). Unless you return the Rental Car on or before the date and time specified for return on the Rental Record (“Return Date”), the rental will automatically and continuously renew for additional 7-day periods, subject to applicable state law (together with the Initial Rental Period, the “Rental Period”); provided that you are in good standing and in compliance with your obligations under the Agreement, including the obligation to remain eligible for participation in the Program.

Renter acknowledges that taxes, fees, and other charges estimated during the Initial Rental Period may be subject to change during the remainder of the Rental Period or during subsequent Rental Periods. Renter must: (a) return the Rental Car for any reason upon Flexdrive’s request, and (b) exchange the Rental Car for any reason upon Flexdrive’s request. If a rental is not renewed, at the discretion of Flexdrive, regular late fees will apply, if a Rental Car is not returned at the end of the Rental Period. To the extent permitted by law, Flexdrive may repossess the Rental Car at your expense without notice to you, if the Rental Car is abandoned or used in violation of law or this Agreement.

Renter acknowledges that Flexdrive, in its sole discretion, may refuse to rent to you, terminate your membership, or terminate the Rental Agreement, for any reason including but not limited to the following: (i) your driver’s license has been or is currently suspended, revoked or otherwise similarly restricted in any way; (ii) you failed to provide Flexdrive all required documentation necessary for the rental; (iii) you are past due on payments owed to Flexdrive, our parent, and/or affiliated companies; or (iii) any of the following has occurred in the course of your current or prior rentals: your vehicle has been repossessed, you have returned a damaged vehicle, you have incurred an excessive cleaning fee, you have previously engaged in a Prohibited Use of a vehicle, or you have had excessive no shows or last minute cancellations.

(2) Reservation of a Rental Car through the Express Drive Program reservation system does not guarantee a reservation of the selected vehicle or the selected class of vehicle.

(3) Security deposits may be required to rent Rental Cars in some markets and are assessed by Flexdrive and/or Lyft at the time of or before the Renter’s Initial Rental Period. Security deposits are refundable after the return of a Rental Car, via the Lyft payment process in the next pay period following the return of a Rental Car, subject to vehicle condition and to payment by Renter of any other outstanding amounts due and payable under the Program or Express Drive Program (e.g., rental fees, tolls, violations, damage fees, etc.). At the time of return of a Rental Car, the Renter will either have the remaining balance of the security deposit held and applied to the next Flexdrive rental or refunded via the Lyft payment process.

B. GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE RULES

(1) Flexdrive connects drivers with Rental Cars available for rent. As such, we have a number of rules designed to ensure that our Rental Cars remain in good condition for the next driver. Accordingly, Renters should follow the guidelines below, as well as all other terms of this Agreement.

Report all damage: Before you drive away with your Rental Car, inspect your Rental Car inside and out. To report damage, a dirty Rental Car, low fuel, or less than 80% battery charge on an electric vehicle (“EV”), inform Lyft or Flexdrive before you take possession of the Rental Car by notifying a Lyft or Flexdrive representative on the rental lot or use other methods as instructed by Lyft and/or Flexdrive. If the Rental Car sustains any damage during the Rental Period, inform Lyft or Flexdrive as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable.
Keep all Rental Cars clean: Take personal belongings with you when you return your Rental Car and throw away or recycle any trash.
No smoking or using e-cigarettes: Smoking or using e-cigarettes is never permitted in a Rental Car, even with all the windows down or all the doors open. Smoking in a Rental Car is a violation of this Agreement.
Rental Car must be returned with the same level of fuel that it was originally rented with, otherwise the Renter will be charged a refueling fee as set forth in Section 3(B)(2) below. EV Rental Cars returned with less than 80% charge remaining on the EV’s battery will be subject to the recharging fees set forth in Section 3(B)(2) below.
Vehicles that are returned excessively dirty due to the presence of pets that are not service animals may be assessed an additional cleaning fee.
Cooperate with Lyft and Flexdrive, including returning your Rental Car upon request to ensure all vehicle requirements, including but not limited to, the Rental Car’s registration, emission testing, etc. are up to date and/or not expired.
Drive as if it is your own car: While Flexdrive and/or Lyft maintain insurance on all Rental Cars available through the Services, to the extent permitted by law and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, you will be responsible for all theft, uncovered damages, costs, and deductibles resulting from your use of the Rental Car and for all damages that result from a breach of this Agreement. Flexdrive and/or Lyft reserves the right to pursue any and all remedies available to it to recover its costs and expenses. Flexdrive and/or Lyft’s remedies include, but are not limited to collection, legal and statutory remedies.

(3) In the event Renter fails to satisfy and maintain satisfaction of the requirements under the Program during the Rental Period, and therefore does not qualify as eligible to participate in the Program with Flexdrive, Renter shall be charged the agreed upon rate for the Rental Car for the entire duration of the rental and will be required to return the Rental Car. In addition to the requirements stated throughout this Agreement, the following requirements apply, without limitation:

a. Completing a minimum number of paid rides on the Lyft Platform for each calendar week during the Rental Period. The number of rides required for this weekly minimum may vary by region and will be communicated to you by either Lyft or Flexdrive.
b. Maintaining all necessary licenses, permits, authorizations or permissions to use the Rental Car to provide “for hire” transportation of passengers in the jurisdiction where Renter provides such services;
c. Complying with Lyft’s terms of service (found at www.lyft.com/terms) and maintaining good standing on the Lyft platform at all times during the Rental Period; and
d. Complying with the terms of this Agreement.

C. PROHIBITED USES OF RENTAL CARS

(1) Any unreasonable, inappropriate or unlawful use of a Rental Car, as determined by Flexdrive in its sole discretion, may be deemed a breach of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Renters must always use Rental Cars in accordance with all traffic, motor vehicle, highway and other applicable laws and regulations. If you violate any laws, Flexdrive will report to the authorities information about you or the Rental Car as and to the extent required by applicable law.

A VIOLATION OF THIS SECTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATE YOUR RENTAL, AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IS AN EXCLUSION TO AND VOIDS ALL LIABILITY PROTECTION AND ANY COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER OR PARTIAL COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER THAT YOU HAVE ACCEPTED. IT ALSO MAY MAKE YOU LIABLE TO US FOR ALL PENALTIES, FINES, FORFEITURES, LIENS AND RECOVERY AND STORAGE COSTS, INCLUDING ALL RELATED LEGAL EXPENSES, FEES AND COSTS THAT WE MAY INCUR.

See Section 25 (LOCATION SPECIFIC DISCLOSURES) for any special terms that might apply in your state. Without limiting the foregoing, the use of a Rental Car under the following conditions is prohibited:

o Any speed race or competition;
o By anyone who is not an authorized driver, as per Section 4 (PERSONS PERMITTED TO USE RENTAL CARS) of this Rental Agreement;
o By anyone who has provided false or fraudulent information to Flexdrive or Lyft, and Flexdrive would not have rented the vehicle or approved the individual as an authorized driver if Flexdrive had received true or accurate information;
o For the purpose of towing, pushing, or propelling any trailer or any other vehicle;
o Driving on unpaved roads;
o For moving furniture, household goods, or other general moving activities;
o Any transportation services on the Lyft platform originating from locations outside of the “authorized territory” for Lyft operations as designated through the Lyft application;
o By any person who is under the influence of (i) alcohol; or, (ii) any drug or medication under the effects of which the Renter’s operation of a vehicle is impaired or the use of a vehicle is prohibited or not recommended;
o In the carrying out of any crime or for any other illegal activity or purpose;
o In an imprudent, negligent, reckless, or abusive manner or any other abnormal use of a vehicle, such as:

Driving with any Rental Car occupant not using their seat belt;
Transporting children without using properly installed child safety seats/restraints, whether such seat or restraint is provided by Flexdrive or yourself; or
Driving when a vehicle warning light is on or there is a mechanical situation which is likely to cause damage to the vehicle.

o Driving or transporting a Rental Car from the US into Canada;
o Driving or transporting a Rental Car from the US into Mexico;
o Carrying a number of passengers that exceeds the designated seating capacity of the vehicle or the number of available seatbelts;
o Carrying baggage, cargo or other items that would cause the Rental Car to be overloaded or otherwise exceed its recommended weight capacity;
o Carrying or transporting any hazardous, toxic, flammable, dangerous or illegal materials or substances; or
o Any other activity prohibited by law or public policy.

(2) Further, Renter agrees that Renter will not (and will not permit passengers or others to): (a) smoke cigarettes, cigars, pipes, other tobacco products, or e-cigarettes in the Rental Car; (b) remove, tamper with or disable any hardware, software or electronics that are installed in the Rental Car; (c) perform repairs or maintenance services on the Rental Car or make any modifications to the Rental Car; (d) make any cosmetic changes to the Rental Car including, without limitation, painting, striping or window tinting; (e) replace the Rental Car’s wheels or other parts; or (f) damage or deface the Rental Car.

D. IF YOU HAVE A BREAKDOWN OR AN INCIDENT

(1) Flexdrive provides Renter with all necessary and required routine maintenance on all Rental Cars. However, Renters are responsible for helping maintain the driving safety and performance of the Rental Car. Renters must be responsive to all warning lights, chimes and other indicators and alerts.
(2) Rental Cars may require Roadside Assistance from time to time. Flexdrive provides Roadside Assistance support as part of the Service. If, however, a Renter’s need for Roadside Assistance results from a breach of this Agreement, the Renter may be charged for the services provided. If Flexdrive determines that Renter’s use of Roadside Assistance amounts to abuse or misuse of the Service, the Renter may be charged for the services provided. Examples of abuse or misuse of Roadside Assistance include, but are not limited to, requesting tow services with the Renter’s home address as the destination, requesting tow services to the Flexdrive rental location for Rental Car return despite the vehicle being safely operable, and Renter requesting fuel services two (2) times or more in a 30-day period. Charges for Roadside Assistance abuse may appear mid-rental or at rental return.
(3) Atypical noises or driving feel, including but not limited to warning lamps, indicators, strange engine or other mechanical sounds, or performance changes, must be reported to Flexdrive or Lyft as soon as noted. Failure to report such irregularities during a Rental Period may result in the Renter’s immediate suspension or termination of membership in the Program, as well as the Renter being responsible for any damages resulting from the continued use of the Rental Car despite such irregularities to the extent permitted by law. Such damages are not covered by the insurance maintained by Flexdrive, Lyft, or otherwise through the Program.
(4) You should report all breakdowns to the Program’s Roadside Assistance line at (833) 274-5938 as soon as reasonably practicable. Accidents or similar incidents involving Rental Cars should be reported to Lyft immediately by calling Lyft’s Critical Response Line through the Lyft Driver app as well as calling 911.
(5) If a problem arises that prevents or limits the use of the Rental Car or that may compromise safety, you must notify Lyft and Flexdrive immediately and follow any communicated instructions from Lyft and/or Flexdrive.
(6) In case of an incident involving property damage or any third party, the Renter must take the following action:

o Contact law enforcement to file a police report as soon after the incident occurs as is reasonably practicable, and, if possible, provide law enforcement a jointly agreed-upon statement between you and the third party.
o Call Lyft’s Critical Response Line as soon after the incident occurs as is reasonably practicable to report the incident details, including:

. Date, time, and place of incident;
The license plate numbers of any other vehicles involved, their make and year, their identification number (serial number), and the insurance certificate’s number (with name, address and phone number of the insurance agent; if possible obtain a digital photo of the other driver’s insurance card);
. The names, addresses, and driver’s license numbers of the persons involved in the incident;

The name, address, and driver’s license number of the owner of the car (if he or she is not the driver);

The name, addresses, and phone number of witnesses, passengers, and any other involved persons;
Circumstances of the incident; and
If one was completed, any police report will be required regardless of liability or fault.

(7) The Renter must provide to Lyft, Flexdrive, and any other claims adjustment service the findings of any report or any notice or other written communications relating to a claim or a lawsuit against Lyft, Flexdrive or any other claims adjustment service regarding any incident involving a Rental Car. Renter agrees to cooperate fully with Lyft, Flexdrive, and any other claims adjustment service in the investigation and defense of any such claim or lawsuit. A Renter’s membership and Lyft platform access may be suspended until the investigation has been concluded.

(8) The Renter will be responsible for the charges related to the theft, repair, recovery and loss of use of any Rental Car and all third party injuries and property damages resulting from any of the foregoing to the extent they are not covered by insurance or a separately purchased Collision Damage Waiver or Partial Collision Damage Waiver and as permitted by applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, the Renter will be responsible for all applicable damages not covered by insurance or a separately purchased Collision Damage Waiver or Partial Collision Damage Waiver and charges arising from the Renter’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement. Information regarding Collision Damage Waivers is set forth in Section 6, information regarding Partial Collision Damage Waivers is set forth in Section 7, and insurance coverage included with the Renter’s Rental Program rental is set forth in Section 8, below.

E. TRAFFIC/TOLL/PARKING VIOLATIONS

(1) You are responsible for any traffic violations incurred during the Rental Period or as a result of your use of a Rental Car. These include, but are not limited to, parking, speeding, red light, photo enforcement, expired registration (due to your own failure to return the Rental Car to Flexdrive upon request), and toll violations. You are liable for all penalties/fees from any such violation, including fines for late payment and any processing penalties/fees added by the issuing municipality. You are liable for payment of all tolls and any fines for toll evasion. Wherever possible it is the Renter’s responsibility to pay the relevant authorities directly. Flexdrive and/or Lyft may impose a fee in connection with processing any such violations. You must report such violations to Lyft as soon as possible within the prescribed deadline for the violation (for example, if the case is being taken to court). While there may be a lag between when the infraction occurs and when you are billed for it, you are still liable for the cost regardless of the delay.

(2) Where a violation is incurred by a Renter and notice of the violation is sent directly to Flexdrive, Flexdrive will either pay the penalty/fee on behalf of the Renter and then add the penalty/fee to the Renter’s account (subject to Section 12 “Fees”) or Flexdrive may, if permitted by the authority issuing the violation, transfer liability for the penalty/fee to the Renter and the Renter will then be wholly responsible for all correspondence with the appropriate authority and any penalties/fees due. Flexdrive will always inform a Renter which one of these two courses of action it has taken and will endeavor to provide notice to Renters before it pays any penalties/fees attributable to them. Once paid by Flexdrive, it may not be possible for the Renter to challenge the penalty/fee. The right to appeal, or transfer liability, on any traffic or parking charge issued by any authority or body belongs to Flexdrive and will be at Flexdrive’s absolute discretion. In the case of certain violations, including but not limited to, speeding notices, Flexdrive is obligated to pass on the offending Renter’s details to the police, who will then contact the Renter directly.

(3) Renter is responsible for paying the charging authorities directly all tolls, including any fines for toll evasion, and other related fines, fees, and penalties assessed against Renter, Flexdrive or the Rental Car during the Rental Period. Renter should not rely on use of a toll transponder in the Rental Car (if any) in connection with Renter’s payment for tolls. In order to avoid a Processing Fee (as defined below) in connection with a toll, Renter must pay the toll in cash at the applicable toll plaza (where permitted) or Renter must make arrangements to pre-pay any applicable tolls, such as by contacting the toll operator and pre-paying online, by phone, or by mail. If Renter is provided a toll transponder and uses it to pay any tolls, the toll payments as well as any fees associated with the use or possession of the toll transponder will be charged to the payment card Renter uses in connection with this rental and Renter expressly authorizes such charges. If Flexdrive is notified that it may be responsible for payment of a toll or violation, Renter will pay Flexdrive or a processing firm of Flexdrive’s choosing (“Processor”) an administrative fee of up to $50 for each such notification (each, a “Processing Fee”) (such fee is a reasonable estimate of Flexdrive’s costs in administrating resolution for a violation or engaging a Processor to do so). If Flexdrive or the Processor pays a toll or violation on Renter’s behalf even in connection with the use of a toll transponder in the Rental Car (if any), Renter authorizes Flexdrive or the Processor to charge tolls or violations to the payment card Renter used in connection with this rental. As and to the extent necessary to enable Flexdrive to enforce its rights under this paragraph, Flexdrive may disclose Renter’s personal information to toll authorities and/or the Processor.

PERSONS PERMITTED TO USE RENTAL CARS

Only properly licensed, active members in the Program and Renters in good standing are allowed to drive Rental Cars, subject to applicable state laws. Renter understands and agrees that in states that require a rental company to inspect the driver’s license of a renter to validate that the license was issued to the renter, Renter will cooperate with Flexdrive by, as applicable, (a) physically presenting the driver’s license to the employee at the rental location and/or (b) transmitting true and actual photos of the driver’s license to Lyft via the Lyft app or other electronic means specified by Lyft or Flexdrive. To the extent permitted by applicable law, non-Renters are expressly prohibited from driving a Rental Car at any time. Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Renter may not permit any other individual to drive a Rental Car other than the specific Renter who has rented and been assigned to a specific Rental Car in compliance with this Agreement. Renter assumes liability for all damages, loss or injury to third parties arising from the use of the Rental Car by an unauthorized user, and, further, if Flexdrive is legally responsible for damages, loss or injury, then Renter agrees to defend and indemnify Flexdrive with respect to same to the extent permitted by applicable law.

REPAIR, MAINTENANCE AND ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

If Renter is notified by Lyft and/or Flexdrive of the need for routine maintenance on the Rental Car that Renter then currently has under rental, Renter will take the vehicle to the locations specified by Lyft and/or Flexdrive, which in all instances will be a Flexdrive-approved maintenance provider. If Renter believes that a Rental Car requires unscheduled repair or maintenance, Renter will contact Lyft, which will notify Flexdrive, and Flexdrive will arrange for the performance of such repair or maintenance by a Flexdrive-approved provider. Under no circumstances shall Renter arrange for repair or maintenance without Lyft’s or Flexdrive’s prior written authorization. If Renter requires roadside assistance, Renter will contact Flexdrive’s roadside assistance provider (identified above). Renter will not use an alternative roadside assistance provider without Flexdrive’s prior authorization.

COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER / NO DEDUCTIBLE

Collision Damage Waiver (“CDW”) / No Deductible is not insurance and is not mandatory. If we offer, and you accept CDW, you will be responsible to pay the weekly CDW rate for each full or partial week that the Rental Car is rented to you or otherwise in your possession. If you accept and pay for a CDW and are not in violation of the Rental Agreement, Flexdrive will waive all loss of or damage to the vehicle, except for loss or damage caused by any prohibited use specified in Section 3C (PROHIBITED USES OF RENTAL CARS) of this Rental Agreement, where permitted by applicable state law.

CDW is offered in select markets. See State-Specific Provisions in Section 25 (LOCATION SPECIFIC DISCLOSURES) or the very top of this Rental Agreement for additional information and limitations that apply to our CDW in certain states.

If you were offered and accepted a CDW, that selection will automatically renew every week. Please visit your Flexdrive rental location to change your deductible selection.

Partial Collision Damage Waiver (“PCDW”) / Low Deductible is not insurance and is not mandatory. If we offer, and you accept PCDW, you will be responsible to pay the weekly PCDW rate for each full or partial week that the Rental Car is rented to you or otherwise in your possession. If you accept and pay for a PCDW and are not in violation of the Rental Agreement, Rental Company will waive all loss of or damage to the vehicle SUBJECT TO A $500 DEDUCTIBLE, except for loss or damage caused by any prohibited use specified in Section 3C (PROHIBITED USES OF RENTAL CARS) of this Rental Agreement, where permitted by applicable state law.

All Rental Cars will be provided to Renters with auto liability insurance that will cover certain periods of driving (“Period(s)”), provided that the Renter is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and Lyft’s Terms of Use.

Where required by applicable law to be primary, insurance maintained by Flexdrive shall apply during Period 0, and insurance maintained by Lyft shall only apply during Periods 1, 2 & 3.

“Driver Mode” means the state of the Lyft Application where it is running and logged in on a Renter’s Lyft Driver account and is available to receive requests for transportation services from Lyft passengers.

Flexdrive reserves all rights not expressly granted herein. In addition, Renter acknowledges that all Rental Cars contain onboard hardware and software for tracking and monitoring Rental Cars, and that Renter is granted only a limited, personal, non-transferrable, and non-exclusive license to such hardware and software only for the purposes authorized by their use of the Services. All title and ownership interest in and to any intellectual property contained in the Services is the property of Flexdrive, Flexdrive’s licensors, or Lyft’s. Renter acknowledges that Flexdrive may aggregate anonymized data regarding the Program and the activities of Renters for purposes of analyzing the use of and improving the Flexdrive technology platform, analyzing trend data for purposes of product development and program development and otherwise using the aggregated data for internal purposes.

GLOBAL POSITIONING SATELLITE SYSTEM, TELEMATICS, EVENT DATA RECORDER

The Rental Car may be equipped with global positioning satellite (GPS) technology or another telematics system, and/or an event data recorder (EDR) (collectively, “Telematics Devices”). You acknowledge and authorize that your use of the Rental Car may be remotely monitored by us or on behalf of us through such systems to the extent permitted by law. This remote monitoring may include collection of vehicle data, such as: location (used for purposes such as: tracking or locating vehicles that are overdue or have been reported lost or stolen, tracking or locating vehicles not returned by the scheduled rental return date, tracking or locating vehicles to confirm the time, date, and/or location of the start or end of a Rental Period, or as may be required by law enforcement agencies), odometer (for the purpose of calculating rental pricing), oil life, fuel level, tire pressure, battery state of charge, diagnostic trouble codes, and other elements we may deem necessary (“Telematics Data”). To the extent permitted by law, we may disable the vehicle when we deem necessary, including if you breach this Rental Agreement. In addition, you acknowledge and authorize that Flexdrive may share your EV battery charge data with Lyft to enable Lyft to use the EV’s battery data to match you to rides within your EV’s battery range and improve your EV driving experience. In certain instances and to the extent permitted by law, the vehicle manufacturer of your Rental Car may be collecting Telematics Data which may be shared with third-party servicing entities.

These systems may use cellular communications, and you should have no expectation of privacy related to your use of this vehicle. You agree to inform all passengers of the Rental Car of the terms of this section, and that you have authorized release of information collected by Telematics Devices. We are not responsible for the operability of any telematics navigational or other system included with the vehicle. Any information provided through a Telematics Device is on an “as-is” basis, and we will not be liable to you or any user in connection with the use of that information. To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold us harmless from any damage to persons or property caused by failure of the Telematics Devices to operate properly, or otherwise arising from the use of such device.

With respect to certain Rental Cars, Flexdrive has partnered with Motorq, an analytics software platform company that enables Flexdrive to collaborate with original equipment manufacturers, including, but not limited to, General Motors (“GM”). (1) Motorq is using GM’s remote API services (“Remote API Services”) with the GM Rental Cars; (2) to the extent permissible by law, Flexdrive may keep the Remote API Services for Program Vehicles turned on all the time; (3) the Remote API Services may send vehicle tracking and other information to Motorq on a regular and continuous basis; (4) to the extent permissible by law, the information that is sent to Motorq through the Remote Data & API Services about the Rental Cars, includes but is not limited to: its features, systems, diagnostics, location, speed, seat belt usage; and (5) Motorq can also send commands to the Rental Cars through the Remote API Services that may include commands to lock and unlock a Rental Car, and/or alert horn and alert lights.

RENTER’S USE OF VEHICLE’S NAVIGATION AND INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM AND VEHICLE MANUFACTURE APPS

If Renter or any occupant pairs a mobile device with the Vehicle’s navigation or infotainment systems, personal information may be transferred to and stored on these systems. We cannot guarantee the privacy or confidentiality of such information and it is Renter’s responsibility to delete all personal information from these systems before returning Vehicle to avoid subsequent occupants or users of Vehicle accessing this information.

If Renter downloads a mobile application made available by the vehicle manufacturer and Renter registers the Vehicle in that application, Renter’s use of the application may result in the sharing of personal data, vehicle information, location information and driving characteristics with the vehicle manufacturer. Renter’s use of these applications is strictly governed by the vehicle manufacturer’s terms and conditions and privacy policy and we are not in any way responsible for, and Renter releases us from, any claim or cause of action which may arise from Renter’s use of these applications. Prior to returning the Vehicle, it is Renter’s responsibility to either remove the application or delete the Vehicle from the application.

FEES

To the extent permitted by law, Renter will be responsible for the payment of any and all rental fees, taxes, damage fees, claims, penalties, fines, deductibles related to Rental Car damage (if permitted by applicable law), tolls (as described in greater detail below), other miscellaneous fees, or other amounts set forth in this Rental Agreement. Such payments will be collected from Renter by Lyft or Lyft’s designated agents (“Lyft’s Agents”), and Lyft will forward such payments to Flexdrive. Flexdrive may coordinate with Lyft or Lyft’s Agents to deduct any such amounts Renter owes in connection with the rental of a Rental Car from the amounts Renter may earn while using the Lyft platform. In addition, Lyft or Flexdrive may require Renter to provide a credit or other payment card (subject to applicable terms and conditions) in order to reserve or rent a Rental Car, that an authorization or hold amount may be placed on the card provided, and that Lyft may charge the amount owed to the payment card Renter provides at any time and in any incremental amount (up to the total amount owed) upon notice to Renter. Prepaid cards (e.g., gift cards) are not valid forms of payment.

Flexdrive has designated Lyft as its agent solely for the purpose of collecting these amounts on Flexdrive’s behalf. For this purpose, Renter authorizes Lyft to offset these amounts from other amounts Lyft owes Renter, and if such offset does not fully pay such amounts, to charge the remaining unpaid amount to the payment method Renter has authorized for Lyft’s use in connection with the Lyft platform, to the extent permitted by applicable law and upon notice to Renter. Certain amounts may be charged at or after the end of the Rental Period, such as fees for vehicle damage as may be identified during final inspection, or for unpaid tickets or tolls and associated administrative fees that are identified after the Rental Period, or otherwise, as provided in the Agreement. Renter must keep a valid payment method on file with Lyft to pay the above amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Renter fails to pay to Lyft any such fees or other amounts due and payable in accordance with this Agreement, Flexdrive is entitled to seek to collect such amounts directly from Renter, and Renter hereby agrees that Lyft is entitled to provide to Flexdrive (a) a copy of the Rental Agreement; (b) any executed Payment Plan Agreement; (c) Renter contact information; (d) any correspondence between Renter and Lyft or its agents that relates to the collection of such amounts; and (e) Renter’s payment information. Flexdrive and/or Lyft reserves the right to avail itself of all remedies available to enforce this section and the Agreement as a whole. These remedies include, but are not limited to, internal collections, account referral to outside collection agencies, and other available legal and statutory remedies. Under this Agreement, Flexdrive shall be considered as the original creditor.

TERM

This Agreement and your membership in the Program shall be effective from the Effective Date, and shall remain in effect for one year, subject to automatic one year renewals, unless earlier terminated by either party as set forth in this Agreement. During the term of the Agreement, each Renter will have the ability to rent Rental Cars for those periods set forth in Renter’s registration process.

SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION

Flexdrive may immediately suspend or terminate the use of its Service by any Renter for any reason, including for a violation of this Agreement. Termination of this Agreement will additionally terminate any Renter reservation then placed or in effect, and you will promptly follow Flexdrive or Lyft’s instructions regarding the return of any Rental Car then in your possession. If your use of Services or any rental of a Rental Car is suspended by Flexdrive, we may, in our sole discretion, reinstate your eligibility for membership in the Program following your cure of any such violation. Subject to each Rental Period being for a minimum of seven (7) days, Renter may schedule a return and/or terminate this Agreement at any time. After the initial seven (7) day rental, the Renter can return the Rental Car to the location from which the Renter rented it at any time during normal business hours and receive a pro-rated charge. Any voluntary termination of this Agreement or reduction in Rental Period by a Renter shall not result in reimbursement of any rental fees for any outstanding reservation or rental of a Rental Car.

REPOSSESSION AND RECOVERY OF RENTAL CARS; USE OF STARTER INTERRUPT TECHNOLOGY

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Flexdrive reserves the right to recover or repossess or to assist in the recovery and repossession of the Rental Cars, at any time, without notice, and at Renter’s expense if Renter violates this Agreement (including, but not limited to, by failing to pay all fees or other amounts due and payable in accordance with this Agreement or by failing to return the Rental Car at the end of the Rental Period) or upon termination of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by and in accordance with applicable law, Flexdrive may assist in the recovery or repossession of a Rental Car or may recover or repossess a Rental Car by remotely deactivating such Rental Car through the use of starter interrupt technology that is part of or attached to the Rental Car. Renter agrees to pay all costs, including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees or attorneys’ fees, if any, associated with the repossession or recovery of any Rental Car pursuant to this Section 15. Renter hereby agrees to waive all claims for damages connected with the repossession or recovery of any Rental Car pursuant to this Section 15 and use of starter interrupt technology.

INDEMNIFICATION

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Renter agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Flexdrive and Lyft, and each of their respective subsidiaries, agents, licensors, managers, and other affiliated companies, and their employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s fees) arising from: (i) Renter’s violation of any term of this Agreement, including without limitation your breach of any of the representations and warranties above; (ii) Renter’s violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any right of privacy or intellectual property rights; (iii) Renter’s violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation; and (iv) any claims or damages that arise as a result of Renter’s use of a Rental Car which are not covered by insurance provided for Renter by Flexdrive or is subject to fee schedule provided by Flexdrive.

NO WARRANTY

The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Use of the Rental Car is at your own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Rental Cars are provided without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non- infringement. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from Flexdrive or through the Services will create any warranty not expressly stated herein, including with respect to driver or passenger safety. Without limiting the foregoing, Flexdrive, its parents, its subsidiaries, and its licensors do not warrant that the Services will meet your requirements; that the Services will be available at any particular time or location; that any defects or errors will be corrected; or that the Services are free of viruses or other harmful components. Any content downloaded or otherwise obtained through the use of the Services is downloaded at your own risk, and you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer system or mobile device or loss of data that results from such download or your use of the Service.

18. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

A. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Flexdrive, its affiliates, agents, directors, employees, contractors or licensors be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses, that result from the use of, or inability to use, the Services. Under no circumstances will Flexdrive be responsible for any damage, loss or injury resulting from hacking, tampering or other unauthorized access or use of the Services or your account or the information contained therein. In no event shall Flexdrive, its affiliates, agents, directors, employees, contractors, or licensors be liable to you for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses or costs in an amount exceeding $1,000.00.

B. . This limitation of liability section applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if Flexdrive has been advised of the possibility of such damage. The foregoing limitation of liability shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction. Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This Agreement gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under this Agreement will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

ARRANGEMENTS WITH THIRD PARTIES

In addition to providing the Services, Renters may elect to provide to or receive services from third parties in connection with the Program (collectively, the “Other Services”). For example, you may elect to rent a Rental Car with mounted sensors provided by a third party, or to have such sensors mounted, for the purpose of collecting driving, vehicle, mapping, or other data. You understand and agree that in such circumstances that you are engaging with the third party provider directly and not with Flexdrive or Lyft and that the Other Services are subject to the terms that you agree with the third-party provider. You agree that neither Flexdrive nor Lyft warrant the Other Services, and that Flexdrive and Lyft are not responsible and may not be held liable for the Other Services or the actions or omissions of you or the third-party provider. You should carefully review the terms and conditions of any of the Other Services with which you engage.

NOTICES

Flexdrive and Lyft may provide any notices required to you hereunder at the email address (or, if you opt out of such delivery method, at the home address) indicated in your reservation request, and you shall update any such information promptly to the extent such information changes; provided that Flexdrive and Lyft shall have no liability for your failure to provide such updates and any notices delivered by Flexdrive to the address on file in our records shall be deemed effective when given. You may give notice to Flexdrive by sending any such notice to Flexdrive Services, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 309 East Paces Ferry Rd NE Unit 400, Atlanta, GA 30305 or via email to memberservices@flexdrive.com.

ARBITRATION

(A) Pre-Dispute Resolution Procedure. Before asserting a claim in any proceeding (including, but not limited to, in an individual arbitration or in a small claims proceeding), you and Flexdrive agree that each party shall give the other party written notice of the claim to be asserted thirty (30) days before initiating a proceeding and make a reasonable good faith effort to resolve the claim. If you are intending to assert a claim against Flexdrive, you must send written notice of the claim to Attention: memberservices@flexdrive.com with a subject line of: Flexdrive Rental Claim / [Renter Name] / [Date of Submission] / [City]. If Flexdrive is intending to assert a claim against you, we will send the written notice of the claim to you at your billing address or email address appearing in our records. NO SETTLEMENT DEMAND OR SETTLEMENT OFFER USED IN THIS PRE- DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS MAY BE USED IN ANY PROCEEDING, INCLUDING AS EVIDENCE OR AS AN ADMISSION OF ANY LIABILITY OR DAMAGES (OR LACK THEREOF).

(B) ) Dispute Resolution. Except as otherwise provided below, in the event of a dispute that cannot be resolved informally through the pre-dispute resolution procedure, you and Flexdrive mutually agree to waive our respective rights to resolution of disputes in a court of law by a judge or jury and agree that all disputes between you and Flexdrive arising out of, relating to or in connection with your rental of a Rental Car from Flexdrive and the Rental Agreement shall be exclusively settled through binding arbitration through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to the AAA’s then-current rules for commercial arbitration. There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court and review by a court is limited. YOU AND FLEXDRIVE AGREE THAT ANY SUCH ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION (collectively, “Class Action Waiver”). Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary, in any case in which the dispute is filed as a class, collective, or representative action, and there is a final judicial determination that the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable as to any claims, then those claims shall be severed from any remaining claims and may be brought in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, but the Class Action Waiver shall be enforced in arbitration on an individual basis as to all other claims to the fullest extent possible. If you are an individual (instead of, for instance, a partnership, corporation, or other form of entity or non-natural person), in the event that (1) your claim is less than $10,000, and (2) you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, Flexdrive will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation. This arbitration agreement is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if Flexdrive seeks to delete or materially modify the agreement to arbitrate from this dispute resolution provision, any such deletion or material modification will not apply to any individual claim(s) that you had already provided notice of to Flexdrive. Information on AAA, its rules and procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim can be found by contacting AAA at 800-778-7879 or on its website at https://www.adr.org. Disputes and claims that are within the scope of a small claims court’s authority, as well as disputes and claims regarding personal injury and/or damage to or loss of a vehicle related to your Flexdrive Rental Car, are exempt from the foregoing dispute resolution provision.

DISPUTES AND GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia in the United States without regard to any conflict of law principles. This Agreement is a contract for services and not for the sale of goods. The UN Convention on the International Sale of Goods is excluded.

GENERAL

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof and supersedes all agreements, proposals, representations and other understandings, oral or written, of the parties. No alteration or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by each party. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach and any waiver must be in writing and signed by the affected party hereto. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Any terms of this Agreement which by their nature extend beyond its termination remain in effect until fulfilled and apply to respective successors and rightful assignees.

Your personal automobile insurance may already cover you for damage to a Rental Car. The purchase of a Collision Damage Waiver is optional and may be declined. For Massachusetts residents: If you have an automobile policy on your personal vehicle with coverage for collision, your policy will cover collision damage to the Rental Car, less the deductible on your policy. If you have comprehensive coverage on your vehicle, your policy will cover loss on the Rental Car caused by fire, theft or vandalism, less the deductible on your policy. Drivers who hold policies in other states should check with their insurance agents to determine whether their policies extend to rental vehicles.

Flexdrive will not hold you responsible if you buy a damage waiver. But a damage waiver will not protect you for the following:

(a) damage or loss caused intentionally, willfully or wantonly by an authorized driver
(b) damage or loss occurring while an authorized driver operates the rental vehicle while legally intoxicated or under the influence of any illegal drug or chemical as defined or determined under the law of the state in which the damage occurred;
(c) damage or loss caused while an authorized driver is using the vehicle to push or tow anything;
(d) damage or loss caused while an authorized driver is using the vehicle to push or tow anything;
(e) damage or loss incurred while an authorized driver is driving outside the United States or Canada, unless expressly authorized in the rental
(f) damage or loss incurred while the vehicle is driven, with the renter’s permission or accession, by anyone other than an authorized driver;

(g) damage or loss incurred after the private passenger automobile was rented or an authorized driver was approved as a result of fraudulent information provided to the rental company;
(h) damage or loss incurred as a result of commission of a felony by an authorized driver
