2. Use of 911 Services

Crexendo 911 service is different from traditional 911 and cellular/wireless 911 service. Dialing 911 may differ depending on where you are located, and the device used, when using your Crexendo service. Please see the full terms of the Crexendo 911 policy at http://www.crexendotelecom.com/e911-policy.

When you dial 911 your Crexendo phone number and registered address are sent to the local emergency center serving your location, and emergency operators have access to this information in order to send help and call you back if necessary. When you dial 911 local emergency operators answering the call may not see your Crexendo telephone number or your registered address. The emergency center may not be equipped to receive, capture or retain your Crexendo telephone number and registered address, so you must be prepared to give them this information. Until you give the operator your phone number, he/she may not be able to call you back or dispatch help if the call is disconnected, dropped or otherwise terminated.

We require you to provide the physical address where you will be using our service for 911 purposes. This address is used to route 911 calls to your local emergency center. When you initially provide your physical address, it can take up to 24 hours to verify your address and activate 911 services at this address. It is advisable to have alternate 911 service until your 911 service has been activated and you have been notified by Crexendo of that activation. If you move this device to another location, you must update your address. The location must be in an area served by Crexendo. You may register only one location at a time. If you do not update your location, your 911 calls may be sent to an emergency center near your old address. There may be an additional delay of up to 24 hours after you notify Crexendo of the device having been moved.

If you have selected a service that enables you to utilize the same telephone number for two different devices you may be required to use an alternate service to contact local 911 service. 911 will only work at the location where the device is located. Please note that our 911 Dialing service will not function in the event of a broadband or power outage or if your broadband, Internet Service Provider (ISP), or Crexendo phone service is terminated.

13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND BINDING ARBITRATION.

It is important that you read this entire section carefully. This section provides for resolution of disputes through final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury.

Arbitration. Crexendo, its parent company, affiliates, assigns and successors and you agree to arbitrate any and all disputes and claims between you and Crexendo. You specifically waive any right to a trial by Jury or by Court. Arbitration includes all right in law or equity including but not limited to: disputes and claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and Crexendo, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; disputes and claims that arose before this or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); disputes and claims that may arise after the termination of this agreement; disputes and claims that are currently the subject of individual litigation; disputes and claims which may be raised in class action litigation whether or not you are or waive your right to be a member of a certified class; and disputes and claims concerning the scope of this arbitration provision.

Waiver of Jury Trial. You and Crexendo agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and Crexendo are waiving the right to a trial by jury.

14. MISCELLANEOUS TERMS

Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence will govern this agreement as well as the relationship between you and us, except to the extent such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law. Because this agreement is a transaction in interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and not state arbitration law, shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration provision.
