  1. Applicability.
    • Only Terms. These General Terms and Conditions, and the terms and conditions contained in the Addendums to this Agreement (these “Terms”), are the only terms that govern the provision of services by Quick Quack Car Wash Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Quick Quack”) to the customer named on the applicable Cover Sheet (“Customer”) to which these Terms are incorporated or attached.
    • Entire Agreement; Order of Precedence. This Agreement, including its attachments and each Order Form entered into between Quick Quack and Customer under this Agreement (which are incorporated herein by this reference), comprise the entire agreement between the parties, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral.  In the event of any conflict between these Terms, the Order Forms, and any other terms, conditions, or other policies of Quick Quack incorporated herein by reference, these Terms first, the Order Form second, and any other terms, conditions, or other policies of Quick Quack incorporated herein by reference third, shall govern, unless the Order Form expressly states that the terms and conditions of the Order Form shall control.
    • No Standard Terms. These Terms prevail over any of Customer’s terms and conditions regardless whether or when Customer has submitted its request for proposal, order, or such terms.  Provision of services to Customer does not constitute acceptance of any of Customer’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms.

      • All Fees charged by Quick Quack in connection with the Services are exclusive of any taxes, levies, or duties imposed by any taxing authority, and you shall be, and hereby are, responsible for the payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties arising from your use of the Services.
      • All payments made to Quick Quack in connection with the Services are non-refundable, and Quick Quack does not offer, and is not required to provide, any refunds or credits.

    • Interest on Late Payments. In the event payments are not received by Quick Quack within the required period, Quick Quack may: (a) charge interest on any such unpaid amounts at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or, if lower, the maximum amount permitted under applicable Law, from the date such payment was due until the date paid; and (b) suspend performance for all Services until payment has been made in full.
    • Refunds. All payments made to Quick Quack or amounts accruing to Quick Quack in connection with the Services are non-refundable, and Quick Quack does not offer, and is not required to provide, any refunds, pro-rations or credits.  There is no circumstance in which Customer will be entitled to, or Quick Quack is required to provide, a refund, pro-ration or credit, including, without limitation, refunds, pro-rations or credits arising from changes to Customer’s Account mid-billing cycle.  Quick Quack may provide a refund, pro-ration or credit in its sole discretion in a manner Quick Quack deems reasonable.

    • Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, all fees for Services incurred up to and including the date of termination shall immediately become due and payable.  If Customer has paid for any Services in advance, Customer shall be entitled to reimbursement for the pro rata portion of Services rendered unless Quick Quack terminates this Agreement due to a breach by Customer of this Agreement.  In such case, Customer will not be entitled to any reimbursement.
  7. Taxes. Customer shall be responsible for all sales, use and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties and charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state, or local Governmental Authority on any amounts payable by Customer hereunder.

    • Force Majeure. No party shall be liable or responsible to the other party, nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement (except for any obligations of Customer to make payments to Quick Quack hereunder), when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond the impacted party’s (“Impacted Party”) reasonable control, including, without limitation, the following force majeure events (“Force Majeure Event(s)”): (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, earthquake, epidemics, pandemics, or explosion; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (d) Government Order, Law, or action; €  embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; (f) national or regional emergency; and (g) other similar events beyond the reasonable control of the Impacted Party.  The Impacted Party shall give notice within thirty (30) days of the Force Majeure Event to the other party, stating the period of time the occurrence is expected to continue.  The Impacted Party shall resume the performance of its obligations as soon as reasonably practicable after the removal of the cause.  In the event that the Impacted Party’s failure or delay remains uncured for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days following written notice given by it under this Section 3, the other party may thereafter terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ written notice.
    • Assignment. Customer shall not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Quick Quack.  Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section is null and void.  No assignment or delegation relieves Customer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture or other form of joint enterprise, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.
    • No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for Quick Quack’s affiliates and subsidiaries which are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms.
    • Arbitration. IN THE EVENT OF ANY DISPUTE (OTHER THAN ONE FILED IN A COURT THAT IS LIMITED TO ADJUDICATING SMALL CLAIMS, OR AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11) BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND QUICK QUACK (“QUICK QUACK” AS USED IN THIS PROVISION MEANS QUICK QUACK, ITS AFFILIATES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE PERSONNEL), CUSTOMER AND QUICK QUACK CONSENT TO ARBITRATE THAT DISPUTE BEFORE A SINGLE ARBITRATOR UNDER THE THEN CURRENT RULES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION RATHER THAN LITIGATE THE DISPUTE IN COURT. CUSTOMER AND QUICK QUACK ALSO AGREE THAT THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT GOVERNS THE ARBITRABILITY OF ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND QUICK QUACK.  IN ADDITION, CUSTOMER AGREES NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, A CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION, CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR CONSOLIDATED CLAIMS INVOLVING ANOTHER CUSTOMER’S ACCOUNT, IF QUICK QUACK IS A PARTY TO THE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL INTERPRET AND DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION, INCLUDING ANY ALLEGED UNCONSCIONABILITY.
    • Governing Law. All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of California.
    • Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding not required to be resolved in accordance with Section 7 shall be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of California in each case located in the City of Rocklin and County of Placer, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
    • Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any party institutes any legal suit, action, or proceeding, including arbitration, against the other party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party in the suit, action or proceeding shall be entitled to receive, in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action, or proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs.
    • Equitable Remedies. Customer agrees that Quick Quack would be irreparably damaged if this Agreement were not specifically followed and enforced.  In such an event, Customer agrees that Quick Quack shall be entitled, without bond or other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable relief in the event Customer breaches this Agreement, and that the awarding of equitable relief to Quick Quack will not limit its ability to receive remedies that are otherwise available to Quick Quack under applicable Laws.  Notwithstanding Section 7, Customer agrees that Quick Quack shall still be allowed to apply for equitable relief in any jurisdiction.
    • Notices. Except as set forth herein, all notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder (each, a “Notice”) shall be in writing and, if to Quick Quack, addressed to 6020 West Oaks Blvd #300, Rocklin, CA 95765, and, if to Customer, addressed at the address set forth in the Order Confirmation, or to such other address that may be designated by the receiving party in writing.  All Notices shall be delivered by personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier (with all fees pre-paid), facsimile (with confirmation of transmission) or certified or registered mail (in each case, return receipt requested, postage prepaid).  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Notice is effective only (a) upon receipt of the receiving party, and (b) if the party giving the Notice has complied with the requirements of this Section.
    • Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be illegal, void, or unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be modified so as to render it enforceable and effective to the maximum extent possible in order to effect the intention of the provision; and if a court or arbitrator finds the modified provision invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected in any way.
    • Survival. Provisions of these Terms, which by their nature should apply beyond their terms, will remain in force after any termination or expiration of this Agreement including, but not limited to, the following provisions: Sections 10 (Taxes), 11 (Intellectual Property), 12 (Confidentiality), 14 (Disclaimer of Warranties), 15 (Limitation of Liabilities), 16 (Indemnification), and 20 (General Terms).
    • Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
    • Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which is deemed an original, but all of which together are deemed to be one and the same agreement.  A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, email, or other means of electronic transmission is deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
