ENTIRE AGREEMENT; LAW AND JURISDICTION
Entire Agreement

8.1 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous Agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Other than as set forth in the Section 7 (“Revisions”), this Agreement may not be amended or modified, in whole or in part, except by an amendment in writing signed by the parties hereto.  Ryde may assign this Agreement in whole or in part without notice. Otherwise, neither party may assign this Agreement, or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other party.

Law and Jurisdiction

8.2 Law and Jurisdiction. 

To the full extent possible, this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Sweden, without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions. 

The courts located in Stockholm, Sweden shall have sole jurisdiction over any disputes arising hereunder, and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.  Where, however, the laws applicable to You do not permit the application of Swedish law or the application of Swedish jurisdiction, then in such case this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions.   

In such case, for any claims or requests for relief not subject to arbitration as set forth in Section 9 (“Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver”), if any, exclusive jurisdiction over and venue of any such claims or requests for relief arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be in the State and Federal Courts located in New York County, New York, and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. 

For the elimination of doubt, in no event shall the application of any law or jurisdiction other than Sweden affect, delete or change any provision of this Agreement.

AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
9.1 EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN,

YOU AND RYDE ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN A COURT (OTHER THAN SMALL CLAIMS COURT) OR BEFORE A JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A DISPUTE. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT.

Except as expressly stated to the contrary herein, You and Ryde each agree that all disputes (whether based in contract, tort, statute or otherwise) between You and Ryde that in any way relate to or arise from any aspect of Ryde’s relationship, this Agreement, Products or Services, including without limitation Your use or attempted use of Your Account, all provision or use of Your personal information and the terms of the Privacy Policy, marketing related to Ryde, and the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, including its arbitration provisions, any applicable warranty, or the sale, condition, or performance of Products or Services, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, and not by a court or jury.  Any such dispute shall not be combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person’s or entity’s product or claim. Specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, You shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class action.  The arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator, whose award may not exceed, in form or amount, the relief allowed by the applicable law.

The arbitration shall be conducted according to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) Arbitration Rules applicable to consumer disputes. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. This Agreement is entered into pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The laws of the State of New York, without reference to its choice of law principles, shall govern the interpretation of the Agreement and all disputes that are subject to the Agreement. 

The arbitrator shall determine the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement and all arbitrability issues, including without limitation whether a dispute is subject to arbitration. This arbitration agreement also applies to claims against Ryde’s employees, representatives, parents and other affiliates. If a lawsuit filed in court includes claims or requests for relief that are arbitrable and claims or requests for relief that are not, You and Ryde agree that any non-arbitrable claims or requests for relief shall be stayed pending the completion of the arbitration of the arbitrable claims or requests for relief.

Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. If the law allows for an award of attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, arbitration fees and/or costs incurred by You should You prevail in arbitration, an arbitrator may award them too. You will not be required to pay any fees or costs incurred by us if You do not prevail in arbitration, unless the arbitrator determines that the claim was brought in bad faith, in which case the arbitrator may award us Ryde’s attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, arbitration fees and/or costs. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The parties understand that, absent these mandatory provisions, they would have the right to sue in court (other than small claims court) and have a jury trial. They further understand that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration or small claims court; and review of an arbitration award (or small claims court judgment) also may be limited. 

Exception – Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims: Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court that only asserts claims for patent infringement or invalidity, copyright infringement, moral rights violations, trademark infringement, and/or trade secret misappropriation.  Claims expressly excepted from arbitration are subject to the jurisdiction and applicable law provisions set forth in in Section 8 (“Entire Agreement; Law and Jurisdiction”). 

Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for any individual disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. If an arbitration is filed, before the arbitrator is formally appointed either party can send written notice to the opposing party and the AAA that it wants the case decided by a small claims court, after which the AAA may close the case.

30 Day Right to Opt Out: You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration Agreement and class action waiver provisions above by sending written notice of Your decision to opt out to the following email address: hello@ryde-equestrian.com, using the subject line “Arbitration Opt Out.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of Your acceptance of the Agreement; otherwise You shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms above. If You opt out of these arbitration provisions, Ryde also will not be bound by them.  Opting out will not affect in any way the other benefits to which You otherwise may be entitled under the Agreement.
