I. STRAIGHT TALK WIRELESS SERVICE

Please read these Terms and Conditions of Service carefully. These Terms and Conditions of Service are a legally binding agreement ("Agreement") between you and Straight Talk. Straight Talk is a brand of TracFone Wireless, Inc. d/b/a Straight Talk.

By purchasing, activating, and/or using any Straight Talk product ("Product") or the wireless services provided by Straight Talk ("Service"), you acknowledge and agree to these Terms and Conditions of Service. Straight Talk reserves the right to change or modify any of these Terms at any time. Any changes or modifications to these Terms and Conditions of Service are effective and will be binding upon you when posted on our website at straighttalk.com. Because these Terms and Conditions of Service are subject to change at any time you should always check our website for the most current Terms and Conditions of Service. For assistance or more information about your Straight Talk Product or Service, please contact Straight Talk Customer Care at 1-877-430-CELL (1-877-430-2355).

1. ACTIVATING YOUR SERVICE

To use Straight Talk Service, you must first purchase a Straight Talk phone or a Straight Talk Activation Kit ("Activation Kit") that can be used to activate a phone that is compatible with Straight Talk Service under the Bring Your Own Phone program. To activate your phone, you must also purchase and redeem a Straight Talk wireless plan ("Plan"). For more information about our Plans visit our website and see Section 3 below.

You may activate your Service by visiting our website at straighttalk.com or by calling our Customer Care from a phone other than the one you intend to activate. If you have purchased an Activation Kit to activate your own phone, follow the instructions that came with the Activation Kit to activate your Service. When you activate your Service, you will be provided with a telephone number unless you elect to transfer or "port-in" an existing telephone number you are using with another provider. In certain instances, you may not be able to transfer your existing telephone number for reasons outside of our control. Please note that you have no ownership rights to any telephone number, IP address or any other identifier associated with your wireless service, and you acknowledge and agree that we may change any such number, IP address or other identifier associated with your Service at any time without prior notice to you.

When you activate the Service, you will have the option of registering with us and creating an account ("Account") by providing your name, address, email address and alternative contact telephone number. If you elect not to register at the time of activation, you may not be able to obtain copies of your call detail records except upon service of a valid subpoena or a court order.

Straight Talk Service can only be activated where Straight Talk Service is offered and supported by Straight Talk. The wireless telecommunications networks used to transmit the voice, text, and data services that support the Service offered by Straight Talk are owned and operated by licensed commercial mobile radio service providers ("Carriers"), and not Straight Talk. Some Carriers differentiate the wireless service they sell by prioritizing the data traffic of their customers over the data traffic of customers on a non-Carrier brand at times and at locations where there are competing customer demands for network resources. Where the network is lightly loaded, a Straight Talk customer will notice little, if any, effect from having lower priority. This will be the case in the vast majority of times and locations. At times and at locations where the network is heavily loaded in relation to available capacity, however, a Straight Talk customer will experience increased latency during a data session, particularly, if the customer is engaged in a data-intensive activity. When network loading goes down or if a customer moves to a location that is less heavily loaded in relation to available capacity, the latency associated with a customer’s data connection will improve.

If you are activating your own compatible phone under the Bring Your Own Phone Program, you are responsible for ensuring that the phone is unlocked, compatible with the Service, does not interfere with the Service, and that it complies with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. You are also responsible for ensuring that your phone meets all federal laws and standards. You are further responsible for the purchase and maintenance of any additional hardware and/or software required to use the Service. Not all aspects of the Service are available on all Carrier networks or will function on all phones, including, phones activated under the Bring Your Own Phone program. Some functions and features referenced in the manufacturer’s manual provided with your phone may not be available when using the Service. Some Plans may not work on Smartphones or on phones activated under the Bring Your Own Phone program. Except for Straight Talk Mobile Hotspots and tablets activated under the Bring Your Own Tablet program (please see Section IV), devices capable only of using data service are strictly prohibited and your use of any such device is grounds for immediate deactivation and termination of your Service without a refund.

We may, at any time and without prior notice to you, modify, cancel, and/or deactivate your Service and/or take other corrective action, for any reason in our sole discretion, including, your violation of these Terms and Conditions of Service. Further, we may remotely change your phone’s software, applications, or programming without notice. This could affect information stored on your phone, your phone’s programming, and how you are able to use your phone.

All aspects of the Service, including, Plan rates, offerings, features, functionality and other product specifications are subject to change without notice or obligation. All talk and standby times are quoted in digital mode and are approximate.

2. TERMINATION OF SERVICE

Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time. Termination of this Agreement will result in the immediate termination of your Service which may be reactivated if you elect to do so. Each time you activate your Service you agree that you are consenting to the latest Straight Talk Terms and Conditions of Service. Any Service which remains unused at the time of termination cannot be refunded or transferred to another person.

We may terminate this Agreement at any time without notice if we cease to provide Service in your area. We may interrupt, suspend, cancel, or terminate your Service without immediate notice to you for any conduct that we believe violates these Terms and Conditions, including, but not limited to, the following:

(a) using or directing abusive, vulgar, derogatory, intimidating, or harassing language or conduct towards a Straight Talk representative, officer, employee, agent, or authorized retailer;

(b) using your Service for any unlawful, fraudulent, or illegal purpose;

(c) using your Service in any way that adversely affects the Service or the Carrier’s network;

(d) violating any Term or Condition contained in this Agreement.

Any term or provision of this Agreement which by its context is intended to apply after termination of the Agreement will survive, including, any limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, dispute resolution procedures, restrictions with respect to the use of a Product or Service and our Limited Warranty, Return Policy, and Privacy Policy.

3. STRAIGHT TALK PLANS

Your phone will only have Service after you have purchased and redeemed a Plan and so long as you have Service days left on your Plan cycle. All Plans come with a certain number of days of Service ("Service Days") per Plan cycle. You will have Service under your Plan so long as you do not reach your maximum allotment of minutes or data (to the extent they are capped) and so long as you have Service Days left on your Plan cycle. The Services that come with our Plans (e.g., talk, text and data) vary and change from time to time. Please also note that some Plans may only work with basic phones and are not intended for smartphones and a phone you activated with Straight Talk under the Bring Your Own Phone program. For the latest information about our Plans, including, any limitation that may apply please visit our website at straighttalk.com or call Customer Care.

4G/4G LTE networks are not available on all devices and in all locations. 4G/4G LTE networks require a capable device and SIM card. Actual availability, coverage, and speeds may vary. If your Plan comes with a fixed amount of high speed data, your data speed will be reduced to as low as 64 kbps for the remainder of your Plan cycle after you have reached your high speed data limit. Your data speed will be restored once your next Plan cycle begins unless you purchase a new Plan prior to the start of your next Plan cycle. If your data speed is reduced, the reduced speed may impact the functionality of some data applications, such as streaming audio or video or web browsing. Data transmitted over Wi-Fi does not count against your data usage.

Depending on the Carrier network, Plans that come with high speed data also come automatically enabled with a feature that optimizes all detectable video streaming to DVD-quality (typically 480p) through the Carrier’s network ("Data Optimizer"). Data Optimizer manages the amount of high speed data used when streaming video on your phone in order to improve your experience by reducing the chances of your video stalling or buffering. You may disable the Data Optimizer feature at any time by contacting Customer Care. Video streaming over a Wi-Fi connection will be delivered at the video’s native resolution.

4. USING YOUR SERVICE

Service Days. As mentioned above, all Plans come with varying amounts of Service Days. Once you start a new Plan cycle, you will lose any unused minutes, data, and Service Days remaining under your current Plan. You will not receive a refund or credit for any unused minutes, data or Service Days once you begin a new Plan cycle.

Service End Date. To keep your Service active, you must purchase and redeem a Plan prior to your Service End Date. Your Service End Date is the last day of your Plan cycle and is determined by the date on which you activated your Service by redeeming a Plan. If you fail to redeem a new Plan prior to your Service End Date, your Account will be deactivated on your Service End Date and, if applicable, you may lose your phone number. To prevent this from occurring, please keep your Service active by purchasing a Plan before your Service End Date. Notwithstanding your Service End Date, Straight Talk reserves the right to discontinue your Service and deactivate any Account for which there is no usage for a period of six (6) consecutive months for smartphones and twelve (12) consecutive months for basic phones. If your Account is deactivated, it may be reactivated by purchasing and redeeming a new Plan. Once reactivated, you will be assigned a new phone number. Service under a Plan which remains unused at the time of deactivation will still be available if Service is reactivated within sixty (60) days from the deactivation date for basic phones and within thirty (30) days for smartphones, otherwise any unused Service under a Plan you purchased will be lost.

Straight Talk Auto-Refill: You may enroll in Auto-Refill by registering your credit or debit card at straighttalk.com and selecting the Plan you wish to purchase on a recurring basis. When you enroll in Auto-Refill, a new Plan will be automatically purchased and redeemed to your Account at the end of your Plan Cycle and your credit or debit card will be automatically charged for the cost of the Plan you elected to purchase on a recurring basis.

Straight Talk Reserve: With Straight Talk Reserve, you may purchase and add to your Account one or more Plans at a time. If you have a Plan in Reserve it will be automatically applied to your Account on your Service End Date. You may redeem a Plan in Reserve at any time prior to your Service End Date, however, if you do so, you will lose any used Service and Service Days left under your previous Plan. If you are enrolled in Auto-Refill, the Plans in your Reserve will take precedence over Auto-Refill and will be redeemed before an Auto-Refill purchase is processed.

All plan rates, offerings, and features are subject to change without prior notice. Plans have no cash value and are non-refundable. Plans cannot be transferred to another account nor can they be used with or transferred to another brand owned by TracFone Wireless, Inc. or another wireless service provider. No refunds or discounts will be given for (i) unused Service that expires after your Service End Date; (ii) unused Service if your Phone if it is lost or stolen; or (iii) Plans purchased that are not compatible or supported by your Phone.

5. TEXT MESSAGING

Straight Talk does not participate in Premium SMS services or campaigns. Premium SMS refers to activities that usually involve sending a text message to a designated "short code" or buying or attempting to buy SMS services from anyone other than Straight Talk. Premium SMS campaigns include activities such as casting a vote, expressing your opinion, playing a game, subscribing to a service, or interactive television programs through the use of a wireless phone.

You should not attempt to participate in Premium SMS campaigns, unless it is a Straight Talk authorized campaign. Any charges you may incur as a result of an attempt to participate in Premium SMS services or campaigns (not authorized by Straight Talk) are not refundable. Some Straight Talk Phone Models do not support text messaging to e-mail addresses.

6. DATA SERVICES

All Straight Talk Plans provide data services. Your use of data services ("Data Usage") occurs whenever your phone is connected to the network and is engaged in any data transmission, including, but not limited to, (i) opening an internet browser or accessing a website, (ii) sending, receiving, or downloading emails, documents, pictures, multi-media messages and other content, (iii) downloading, updating, or using an app; or (iv) if internet access is initiated in any other way or for any other purpose.

Some apps, content, programs, and software that you download or that come pre-loaded on your phone automatically and regularly send and receive data transmissions in order to function properly, without you affirmatively initiating the request and without your knowledge. For example, apps that provide real-time information and location-based applications connect to our network, and send and receive updated information so that it is available to you when you want to access it. We will deduct all Data Usage from the amount of high speed data provided by the Plan you purchased whenever your Phone is engaged in a data connection, including, any type of connection which you affirmatively initiate or those that run automatically in the background without your knowledge whether they are successful or not. The duration of your data connection and the associated Data Usage is not determined from the exact moment you press a button on your Phone. Data Usage may depend on the amount of data or content transmitted during a data connection and the amount of time it takes to send or receive the data or content being transmitted. If you cancel or attempt to cancel a data or content transmission in progress, or if the process is otherwise interrupted through no action on your part, you will still incur Data Usage. Unless you are using Wi-Fi, any Data Usage on your Phone, will count against your data balance.

For content downloads from the internet or an app store, you may incur a charge for the content you download (a "Content Charge") from the provider of the content you have purchased. Unless Straight Talk is the provider of such content, you agree that Straight Talk is not responsible for the purchase, download, transfer, installation, use, transmission failure, interruption, or delay, or any web content, app store, or a app you access or purchase. Any support questions related to third-party downloads, including, but not limited to web content and apps should be directed to the third-party provider and not Straight Talk. When you use, download, or install web content and/or apps provided or sold by a third-party, you may be subject to separate terms and conditions, terms of use, privacy policies and other policies of the third-party. You agree that Straight Talk is not responsible nor liable to you for any third-party content, advertisements, websites, app stores, or apps you may download or access using your phone.

If you visit or use any third-party website, app store, or app, the third party may access, collect, use or disclose your personal information or require that the network carrier disclose your personal information, including, your location information (if applicable). If you access or use any third-party apps while using Data Services, you agree and authorize Straight Talk and the network Carrier to provide information related to such use. You understand that your use of a third-party app is subject to the third party’s terms and conditions and policies, including its privacy policy. You should refer to the third-party’s privacy policy for information regarding the use of information collected when you download, install, or use web content or applications from that third party.

Not all of the online content which is accessible to one using Data Services is intended for children. In the event that you, as a legal guardian allow your child to use Data Services, you acknowledge that your child has the permission to use the Data Services including, without limitation, email and web browsing capabilities. You further acknowledge that as a legal guardian, it is your responsibility to determine whether using Data Services is appropriate for your child. If you browse the internet using Data Services, you agree that you are of the minimum legal age to visit certain sites and you agree not to visit any illegal sites.

Availability, Interruptions, and Discontinuation to Data Services. Straight Talk does not guarantee the availability of Data Services and reserves the right to modify, suspend, cancel, interrupt, discontinue, terminate or reduce your data throughput speed without notice. Straight Talk is not responsible and will not be liable for any modifications, interruptions or discontinuation of the Data Services or for any failure to receive content you purchased using Data Services. If your Data Services are modified, suspended, canceled, interrupted, discontinued or terminated, Straight Talk will not provide you with a refund for any remaining used or unused Data Services.

7. UNAUTHORIZED USE OF SERVICE

Your Service (i.e., voice, text, or data services) may only be used for the following purposes: (a) person to person voice calls, (b) text and picture messaging, and (c) web browsing, email, ordinary content downloads and uploads, and video and audio streaming without excessively contributing to network congestion.

Your Service may not be used in connection with certain unauthorized uses that may adversely impact other customers using our Service or the Carrier’s network. Examples of some unauthorized uses include, but are not limited to, the following:

(i) continuous uninterrupted voice calls or otherwise using your voice service to provide monitoring services, data transmission, transmission of broadcasts, transmission of recorded material, interconnection to other networks, telemarketing activity, autodialed calls, or robocalls;

(ii) automated text or picture messaging to another mobile device or e-mail address;

(iii) uninterrupted and continuous web browsing uploading, downloading, or streaming of audio or video;

(iv) server devices or host computer applications, including, but not limited to, web camera posts or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, automated machine-to-machine connections or peer-to-peer ("P2P") file sharing;

(v) as a substitute or backup for private lines or dedicated data connections;

(vi) access to the internet, intranets, or other data networks except as the device’s native applications and capabilities permit (excluding all hotspot applications),

(vii) any applications that allow your phone to act as an internet access point or Wi-Fi for other devices and computers unless such use is allowed under your Plan.

A customer engaged in any unauthorized use may have their Service suspended and/or terminated in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to interrupt, suspend, cancel, or terminate your Service to protect the Carrier’s network from harm due to any cause including, without limitation, the excessive and/or unauthorized use of the Service. We further reserve the right to limit, deny, or terminate Service to anyone we believe is using their Service in an unauthorized manner or whose usage, in our sole discretion, adversely impacts a Carrier’s network or customer service levels. We will presume you are engaging in an unauthorized use in violation of these Terms and Conditions, if in our sole discretion, you are using more than 60 GB of data in a 30-day period, you are placing an abnormally high number of calls, or repeatedly placing calls of unusually long duration, if your voice minute total exceeds 43,200 minutes during a 30-day period, or if your talk, text or data usage is harmful or disruptive to the Carrier’s network or to our customer service levels. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that you are using your Service in violation of these Terms and Conditions or in any other manner that we deem to be unreasonable or excessive, we may interrupt, suspend, cancel, or terminate your Service.

8. COVERAGE MAPS

You will find Coverage Maps on our website. These maps are for general informational purposes only. The coverage maps depict the general coverage area of Straight Talk. The coverage maps are not a guarantee of coverage. Coverage is not available everywhere. The coverage maps display only the predicted and approximate optimal wireless coverage for voice calls, while outdoors, of the network on which your phone may be activated including the coverage area of the network’s roaming partners, if applicable. The coverage areas shown do not guarantee service availability, and may include locations with limited or no coverage. Within coverage areas, there may be significant limitations or interruptions in coverage that may impact service and result in dropped and blocked connections, slower Mobile Web Service and data speeds or no Mobile Web Service or data connectivity and call interference. This could occur due to many factors including your device, network changes, network traffic volume, network outages, technical limitations, signal strength, the terrain and your proximity to buildings, foliage and other obstructions, weather and other conditions. You will not be able to operate your phone or make 911 calls if service is not available. Some features on your device may not operate when roaming on the network of a network roaming partner. If you travel outside of your coverage area, your phone will not work. The coverage depicted on the Straight Talk coverage maps is based on the information provided by other carriers and public sources and we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Coverage maps for your network may also vary based on your home location so please refer to our website for the most up-to-date coverage map applicable to your device and geographic area. Your coverage will also vary based upon the Straight Talk plan you select. Straight Talk is not responsible for any Service outages, interruptions in service or decline in the quality of service regardless of the cause.

9. ROAMING

Depending on the Carrier network, it is possible that under certain circumstances your phone may roam if you are outside of your network coverage area and within the United States. Roaming occurs when a subscriber of one wireless service provider uses the facilities of another wireless service provider. Although there are no additional charges for using the Service while roaming domestically, Straight Talk does not guarantee your ability to roam nor the availability and/or the quality of Service. Domestic roaming may be discontinued or changed at any time without notice. Due to Carrier restrictions, Straight Talk reserves the right to terminate the Service of any customer whose roaming usage exceeds 50% of their total usage in any three (3) Plan cycles within a 12 month period. International roaming is not offered by Straight Talk and is strictly prohibited.

10. WI-FI CALLING

Wi-Fi Calling may be available only on phones that are Wi-Fi Calling capable and that have a Wi-Fi Calling enabled SIM card (depending on the Carrier). Wi-Fi Calling provides you the ability to make and receive phone calls and text messages over a Wi-Fi connection. Wi-Fi Calling enhances your coverage in buildings and other locations. If you use a Wi-Fi network for making or receiving calls and text messages or for any other reason, you acknowledge and agree that your use of such Wi-Fi network is permissible and that you are solely responsible for such use. Using your Wi-Fi Calling feature may provide you with access to an unsecured Wi-Fi network which could impact your data security. You can disable Wi-Fi Calling by toggling it off in your device settings menu.

Although we recommend that you use your wireless service as your primary method of contacting 911, you may be able to use Wi-Fi Calling for dialing 911 if your phone is equipped with this feature and you have access to the internet through your phone’s W-Fi connection. To dial 911 using Wi-Fi Calling, you must provide us with an address for your primary use of Wi-Fi ("Primary Address") at the time of activation. If the location at which you primarily use Wi-Fi changes, either temporarily or permanently, you must register the new address online at e911-reg.tracfone.com or by contacting Customer Care at 1-877-440-9758. It may take 24 hours or more to update your address information. If you do not give us your Primary Address, we will block your ability to use Wi-Fi calling. When you use Wi-Fi Calling to dial 911 and you are away from your Primary Address, we will have no information about your location. As such, always be prepared to report your precise location to emergency responders.

Please be aware that dialing 911 via Wi-Fi Calling requires access to the internet and operates differently than traditional 911 calling services. For example, 911 service via Wi-Fi Calling may be limited or not available due to various circumstances, including, relocation of equipment, loss or disruption of power, internet or wireless service, internet congestion or a connection failure, delays in availability of registered location information, and/or other technical problems.

TTY Limitations for 911 Calls: Due to technical limitations, Wi-Fi Calling cannot be used with TTY devices and will not support 911 calls over TTY devices. Persons with communications disabilities can still reach 911 services by either (1) calling 911 directly using a TTY over the cellular network or from a landline telephone, (2) sending a text message to 911 directly (in areas where text-to-911 is available) from a wireless device, (3) using relay services to place a TTY or captioned telephone service (CTS) call from a wireless phone over the cellular network or from a landline telephone, or (4) using relay services to place a IP Relay or IP CTS call over a cellular data or other IP network.

11. EMERGENCY CALLS

If you are in an area where your Service is searching for a wireless signal or there is no wireless signal or wireless service, it is highly probable that a call to 911 will not go through. Do not rely solely on your Service in an emergency situation. In an emergency, locate the nearest landline phone and call for help.

12. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

STRAIGHT TALK PRODUCTS AND SERVICE ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "WHERE IS" BASIS AND BY USING ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE YOU AGREE THAT TRACFONE WIRELESS, INC. D/B/A STRAIGHT TALK WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY FAILURE, DEFECTS, MALFUNCTIONS, OR ERRORS IN THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICE.

You acknowledge and agree that use of any Product or Service is at your sole risk and that your Service may be unavailable, interrupted, delayed or limited for a variety of reasons outside of Straight Talk’s control. Not all Products or Services (including Plans) are available for purchase or use in all sales channels, in all areas, or with all devices. Service is subject to transmission limitations caused by certain equipment and compatibility issues, atmospheric, topographical and other conditions. Further, Service may be temporarily refused, limited, interrupted, suspended, or curtailed due to system capacity limitations, technology migration or limitations imposed by the Carrier, or because of equipment modifications, upgrades, repairs or relocations or other similar activities necessary or proper for the operation or improvement of the Carrier’s radio telephone system. Straight Talk does not warrant or guarantee the availability of the Service or of any other services at any specific time or in any specific geographic location or that Services will be provided without interruption. Neither Straight Talk, nor any Carrier, shall have any liability for Service failures, outages, interruptions, delays, or limitations of Service. All aspects of the Service, including, Plan rates, offerings, features, functionality and other product specifications are subject to change without notice or obligation. At any time, Straight Talk reserves the right to substitute and/or replace any Product or Service with another Product or Service of comparable quality.

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

IN NO EVENT SHALL TRACFONE WIRELESS, INC. D/B/A STRAIGHT TALK OR ITS EMPLOYEES, VENDORS, SUPPLIERS, OR LICENSORS WILL BE LIABLE TO YOU OR OTHER USERS OF YOUR SERVICE FOR ANY ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE OR ENHANCED DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY DAMAGES CLAIMED FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, INCOME, SALES, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, DATA OR INFORMATION) HOWEVER CAUSED, WHETHER UNDER THEORY OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER NOTICE THAT SUCH LOSS MAY OCCUR WAS PROVIDED).

You should implement appropriate safeguards to secure your phone, computer or equipment and to back-up your information stored on each.

14. UNAUTHORIZED USE OF PRODUCTS

Straight Talk Products and Service are sold exclusively for use by you, the end consumer. The unauthorized unlocking or resale of your Straight Talk phone constitutes a violation of your agreement with Straight Talk and will invalidate the Limited Warranty associated with your phone. You agree not to unlock, root, re-flash, jailbreak, tamper with or alter the build state of your Straight Talk phone in a manner which conflicts with Straight Talk’s Unlocking Policy referenced in Section VII below. You also agree not to use unauthorized PINs associated with Straight Talk Plans or engage in any other unauthorized or illegal use of your Straight Talk Product or the Service, or assist others in such acts, or to sell and/or export Straight Talk Products outside of the United States. Any attempt to unlock your Straight Talk phone in an unauthorized manner or to root, re-flash, jailbreak, tamper with or alter the build state of your Straight Talk phone may result in the inability to unlock your device, maintain your device’s unlocked state, or otherwise cause your device to malfunction. Such use along with any other unauthorized use of your Straight Talk Product may result in the immediate suspension or termination of your Straight Talk Service without notice and legal action. Straight Talk will strictly enforce its rights under this provision and will prosecute violators to the full extent of the law. You agree that any violation of this provision through your improper, illegal, or unauthorized use or sale of your Straight Talk phone shall entitle Straight Talk to recover liquidated damages from you in the amount of not less than $5,000 per Straight Talk phone purchased, sold, acquired or used in violation of this provision. For more information about the unauthorized use of Straight Talk phones refer to www.stopcellphonetrafficking.com.

If your Straight Talk phone has a SIM card or if you have purchased an Activation Kit, then you agree to safeguard your SIM card and not to allow any unauthorized person to use your SIM card. You agree not to, directly or indirectly, alter, bypass, copy, deactivate, remove, reverse-engineer or otherwise circumvent or reproduce the encoded information stored on, or the encryption mechanisms of your SIM card or to allow any other person to do so. Any violation of the restrictions on the use of your SIM card that are contained in this Section may result in the immediate termination of your Service without notice. Straight Talk and its Carriers or other service providers, may, from time to time, remotely update or change the encoded information on your SIM card.

In the event of termination for any other unauthorized usage, you will forfeit unused Service and you will not be entitled to receive a refund for your Straight Talk phone or for any unused Service.

BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS (INCLUDING ONES THAT ALREADY ARE THE SUBJECT OF LITIGATION) THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF SUING IN COURT IN THE EVENT THAT THE PARTIES ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE A DISPUTE OR CLAIM. ARBITRATION IS BINDING AND SUBJECT TO ONLY A VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE AWARE THAT THERE IS NO JUDGE NOR JURY IN ARBITRATION BUT THAT AN ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD YOU THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO RECOVER IN A COURT OF LAW. YOU AND TRACFONE FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MUST HONOR THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, EITHER PARTY MAY BRING A CLAIM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT.

This provision is intended to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of your relationship with TracFone, arising out of or relating to the Service or any equipment used in connection with the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory). References to you and TracFone include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns.

All claims will be resolved by binding arbitration where permitted by law. You must first present any claim or dispute to TracFone by contacting our Legal Department, as set out above, to allow an opportunity to resolve the dispute prior to initiating arbitration. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the "AAA Rules"), as modified by this agreement. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA a 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting TracFone’s Legal Department as set out above. You and TracFone agree that use of the Service evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Additionally, for claims of $10,000 or less, you can choose to proceed with arbitration being decided on the documents submitted in an effort to minimize costs and the time it may take for an arbitrator to reach his or her decision.

You and TracFone agree that any arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis and not on a consolidated, class wide, or representative basis. Further, you and TracFone agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If the preclusion of consolidated, class wide, or representative proceedings is found to be unenforceable, then this entire arbitration clause shall be null and void.

Absent a finding that your demand is frivolous, brought for an improper purpose, or malicious as set forth by the standards of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), TracFone will pay the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees of an arbitration initiated in accordance with this Agreement. If, however, the arbitrator does deem that your demand was frivolous, was brought for an improper purpose, or was malicious under the same standard used in a court of law, payment of all fees will be divided between you and TracFone in accordance with AAA Rules. Additionally, TracFone hereby waives any right to seek its attorney’s fees from you in the event that it prevails in the arbitration, except where your demand is deemed frivolous, brought for an improper purpose, or malicious under the standard set out above. Nothing in this section shall be construed by an arbitrator as barring an award of attorney’s fees to you, the customer, where the law would so provide. If you initiate an arbitration in which you seek more than $50,000 in damages, the payment of fees will be governed by the AAA rules.

If TracFone made you a settlement offer that you rejected prior to entering arbitration and the arbitrator ultimately finds in your favor in any respect with an award that is greater than the last written offer made to you by TracFone, TracFone will pay you the amount of the award or a minimum of $5,000, whichever is greater. Additionally, TracFone will pay your attorney twice the reasonable expense of attorney’s fees as well as reimbursing any expenses that your attorney reasonably incurs for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your claim. If TracFone opted not to make you a written settlement offer, these same terms apply, meaning that you are guaranteed a minimum award of $5,000 if the arbitrator finds in your favor and that TracFone will reimburse your reasonable attorney’s fees twofold. The arbitrator will be the arbiter of what constitutes reasonable fees, and you and TracFone agree that the arbitrator may make any rulings as to the payment and reimbursement of fees and expenses for an additional 14 days after the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

Unless you and TracFone agree otherwise and in an effort to reduce the burden of arbitration on you, the location of any arbitration shall be in the county of your, the customer’s, residence for those customers located within the United States. For customers residing outside of the United States, the location of arbitration shall be Miami, Florida, unless you and TracFone agree otherwise. Either or both parties may participate in the proceedings by telephone. The arbitrator shall apply the law of the State in which you, the customer, reside to the dispute.

If for any reason this arbitration provision is deemed inapplicable or invalid, or to the extent this arbitration provision allows for litigation of disputes in court, you and TracFone waive to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) any right to pursue any claims on a class or consolidated basis and (ii) your right to serve in a representative capacity in any class or consolidated basis. Neither you nor TracFone shall disclose the existence, contents, or results of any arbitration except to the extent required by law. Judgment on the award rendered may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.

In the event that any claim proceeds in a court of law rather than through arbitration, you and TracFone agree that there will not be a jury trial. You and TracFone unconditionally waive any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any way. You and TracFone further agree that in the event of litigation, this section of the Agreement may be filed as an exhibit illustrating a knowing and written consent of any right to a trial by jury.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS PROVISION COVERING DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE ACTIVATION OF YOUR SERVICE. IN THE EVENT YOU ACTIVATE SERVICE WITH TRACFONE AND DO NOT OPT OUT OF THIS PROVISION WITHIN 30 DAYS, YOUR INACTION SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE CONSENT TO THIS PROVISION COVERING DISPUTE RESOLUTION. YOU MAY OPT OF THIS PROVISION BY CALLING US AT 1-877-430-2355 OR BY WRITING TO TRACFONE WIRELESS, INC., ATTN: LEGAL DEPARTMENT-CONSUMER CLAIMS, 9700 NW 112 AVENUE, MIAMI, FL 33178. ANY OPT-OUT RECEIVED AFTER THE OPT-OUT DEADLINE (OR, IN THE CASE OF THOSE MAILED, POSTMARKED AFTER THE OPT-OUT DEADLINE) WILL BE INVALID, AND YOU MUST PURSUE YOUR CLAIM IN ARBITRATION.

17. CHOICE OF LAW

This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the law of the State in which you reside without regard to its choice of law rules, except for the arbitration provision contained herein, which will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. If you reside outside of the United States, then this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the state of Florida.

6. Straight Talk ILD Service may be provided by other carriers, many of whom may not have a direct contractual relationship or service level agreements with Straight Talk. ILD Service provided by these third parties may not be the same as service provided in the United States or by other international long distance carriers. Events beyond our control may affect the availability and/or quality of service. No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made regarding the number of minutes available for calls to a particular country or, after having placed a call, the remaining number of minutes available for calls to any particular country.

7. Straight Talk ILD Service is intended for live dialogue between and initiated by two individuals for personal use and not for commercial use or resale.

The service is not for commercial use or resale. Loaning or renting your handset (mobile phone or cell phone) or service to other persons for their use or calling, hosting, establishing or maintaining a chat line is not considered personal use.

8. Straight Talk will presume certain usage, dialing or calling patterns to indicate that you are using the ILD Service in violation of these Terms and Conditions and we reserve the right to suspend, terminate or restrict your Straight Talk Service without prior notice. If you believe that we are in error, please contact Customer Care at 1-877-430-2355 and depending on the circumstances, we may reactivate your ILD Service.

Straight Talk shall not be liable for any service outages and/or your inability to access 911 emergency service personnel for any reason.

4. You are responsible for assessing whether the coverage available where you place your Straight Talk Home Phone indoors is acceptable to you in connection with your use of Straight Talk Wireless Home Phone service. Your Straight Talk Home Phone requires at least moderate coverage throughout the indoor premises where you are using the phone in order to successfully use the Service. Regardless of the coverage available, your Straight Talk Home Phone is not equivalent to traditional landline phone service.

7. STRAIGHT TALK SERVICE PLANS: Straight Talk Wireless Home Phone offers monthly Service Plans which may include unlimited nationwide calling, unlimited international calling to certain select destinations, and a fixed amount of data depending on the Service Plan you purchase.

To determine if your destination of choice is available please check our website and read the terms above for more information on Straight Talk’s $10 Global ILD Card. Please note that unlimited Service Plans do not track "per minute" usage for nationwide calls. The Plans are subject to certain limitations as set forth in these terms and conditions below.

All data that is directed to your device’s internet address, including data sessions that you do not initiate or complete, are counted against your data usage. Examples of data that will count as part of your data usage are: sending or receiving email, documents, pictures or other files; multimedia streaming (music and video); file uploads and downloads; gaming services, graphics and applications; web page graphics (including logos, pictures, banners, advertisements and updates to any of the aforementioned); automatic device updates and any other automatic updates; any additional data necessary in order to access, transport and route files on the network; data associated with incomplete or interrupted downloads; and data associated with unsuccessful attempts to upload or download a file, reach a website, use an application or complete an online form or purchase; and any data that is re-sent (such as when refreshing a page or browser). Data usage includes all data that is downloaded, even though you may not have listened to or watched the entire download. The data that is consumed and applied against your data usage is in addition to any charges you may incur for purchased data content (such as the cost associated with purchasing music, games, apps, movies, etc.). The amount of data consumed and calculated as your data usage will vary significantly even with respect to identical actions and data sessions. Estimates of data usage such as the size of downloaded files are not accurate indicators of actual data consumed during a session.

VII. STRAIGHT TALK UNLOCKING POLICY

For Customers with Straight Talk Phones Capable of Being Unlocked: Straight Talk will provide an unlocking code to customers who request unlocking, provided they meet the following conditions:

(a) Customers must request phone unlocking. Straight Talk will unlock phones of current and former Straight Talk customers without charge. Non-former customers may request unlocking, but Straight Talk may charge a reasonable fee.

(b) The Straight Talk phone must have been activated on Straight Talk Service for no fewer than 12 months with Service Plans redeemed in no fewer than 12 months.

(c) Customers must possess a Straight Talk phone that is not reported stolen, lost, or associated with fraudulent activity.

(d) If a customer in good standing requesting phone unlocking is deployed as military personnel, upon provision of deployment papers, Straight Talk will honor that customer’s unlocking request.

For Customers with Straight Talk Phones Not Capable of Being Unlocked: Straight Talk will provide customers with a partial refund or credit against the purchase of a new Straight Talk phone if they meet the following conditions:

(a) Customers must request phone unlocking.

(b) Customers must have had their locked phone activated on Straight Talk Service for no fewer than 12 months, redeemed air time cards in no fewer than 12 months, and not have had their telephone number recycled or ported.

(c) Customers must request this interim unlocking solution while their Straight Talk Service is active or within 60 days after their Service expires. This 60-day grace period applies even if the customer’s telephone number was recycled or ported.

(d) Customers must currently own a Straight Talk phone model launched on Straight Talk’s Service after February 11, 2014 or activated with Straight Talk’s Service after February 11, 2015.

(e) Customers must possess a Straight Talk phone that is in working condition.

(f) Customers must possess a Straight Talk phone that is not reported stolen, lost, or associated with fraudulent activity.

(g) If a customer in good standing requesting handset unlocking is deployed as military personnel, upon provision of deployment papers, Straight Talk will honor that customer’s unlocking request by sending a refund for the trade-in value of the used, locked phone returned by the customer without regard to the 12 months of service activation and Service Plan redemption eligibility requirements.

(h) Customers are eligible for this program only once every twelve (12) months.

After an eligible customer contacts Straight Talk to request the trade-in value of his or her phone, Straight Talk will provide a prepaid mailer for the customer to return the used, locked phone. Upon receipt of the phone, Straight Talk will send the customer a check for the trade-in value of the phone. The trade-in value is determined by a formula reached through agreement with the FCC. Eligible customers may elect to have the trade-in value of their phone applied to the cost of a new Straight Talk phone that is capable of being unlocked.

Customers who would like to check if they are eligible or submit an unlocking request can do so through an online portal at the Straight Talk website or by calling 1-888-442-5102.

Straight Talk may refuse any unlocking request that would result in an abuse of its Unlocking Policy or is part of an effort to defraud Straight Talk or its customers. Straight Talk’s Unlocking Policy is subject to change at any time without advance notice.
