b) Changes – As between you and HOPR, HOPR reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Charges for any or all services or goods obtained through the use of the Services at any time in HOPR’s sole discretion. Further, you acknowledge and agree that Charges applicable in certain geographical areas may increase substantially during times of high demand. HOPR will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof. HOPR may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services or goods obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you.

c) Cancellation – You may elect to cancel your request for Services at any time prior to the commencement of such Services, in which case you may be charged a cancellation fee.

d) Use of Charges – HOPR may use the proceeds of any Charges for any purpose, subject to any payment obligations it has agreed to with any Third Party Providers and/or other third parties.

e) Charges Owed to Third Party Providers – In certain cases, with respect to certain Third Party Providers, Charges you incur will be owed directly to Third Party Providers, and HOPR will collect payment of those charges from you, on the Third Party Provider’s behalf as their limited payment collection agent.  In such cases, payment of the Charges shall be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Third Party Provider. This payment structure is intended to fully compensate such applicable Third Party Provider for the services or goods obtained in connection with your use of the Services. In all other cases, Charges you incur shall be owed and paid directly to HOPR.

6.2 CREDIT CARDS. You represent and warrant to HOPR that you are authorized to use the Credit Card provided under section 4.1 to register for an Account. You hereby authorize HOPR to charge the Credit Card for all costs (including fees, expenses and tickets) incurred by you under this Agreement, including under sections 5.8, 5.9 and 5.10, and all such costs are subject to applicable taxes and other local government charges, which may be charged and collected by HOPR. In the event that the Credit Card is

declined for any reason, HOPR may suspend any and/or all of your Rental Plans and your ability to use any Bikes until all of your prior charges are paid in full and you have paid a $10.00 reinstatement fee (unless expressly waived by HOPR). Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by HOPR in its sole discretion.

6.3 THIRD PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR.

a) Processor – HOPR may, in its sole discretion, use a third party payment processing company

(“Processor”) to collect payments, fees, expenses and other costs owing under this Agreement. In collecting such costs, the Processor may process your Credit Card transactions and obtain personal information from you.

b) Server in United States – The Processor may provide some or all of its services from systems located within the United States. As such, your Credit Card data (“Card Data”) and personal information may be transferred, processed and stored outside of Canada on servers located in the United States, and may be subject to disclosure as required by applicable laws, such as the provision of information such as your name, Credit Card type, expiration date, and the last four digits of your Credit Card number. Unless otherwise indicated to you by HOPR, this information will only be used to make single payment requests or to register you for an ongoing membership plan that requires automatic payments in the future.
