Except as provided in this condition 10.1, this EULA does not create any right enforceable by any person who is not a party to it. 10.2 We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under this EULA. 10.3 You may only transfer your rights or obligations under this EULA to another person if we agree in writing. 10.4 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this EULA, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you. 10.5 Each of the conditions of this EULA operates separately. If any court or competent authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining conditions will remain in full force and effect. 10.6 Please note that this EULA, its subject matter and its formation, are governed by English law.

DATE OF POSTING: 6/12/2016 RIIDE - TERMS OF USE SECTION A: INTRODUCTION AND PRELIMINARY TERMS 1 Welcome 1.1 These Term of Use apply to your use of the services Riide Ltd (we, you or us, as applicable) provide to you through the mobile software application that we make available for download (App) from certain third party retailers (App Stores). For further information about us and our contact details, please see the Contact us section at the end of this page. 1.2 The terms and conditions of the software licence of the App are set out in our End User Licence Agreement (EULA) and together, with these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy (collectively the Terms), govern the services you access and use through the App (Riide Services). They all form part of our agreement with you so please take the time to read them. 1.3 To make these terms and conditions quicker to read, we use a few definitions. We refer to users that have registered an account to use the Riide Services via the App as Users, to the third party operators of licensed private hire vehicles that Users can book using the App as Operators, to the transportation services provided by Operators as Transportation Services, to the booking a User makes for Transportation Services using the App as Bookings and to the electronic mobile device that a User uses to run the App as a Device. 1.4 These Terms of Use are organised into three sections. Those terms and conditions in Section B apply specifically to Users that make a Booking. Those in this Section A and in Section C apply to all Users. 1.5 You will see that each section of these Terms begins with a ‘highlight’ text box which summarises the key terms in that section. These highlights are an informal summary and do not form part of these Terms or any of the contracts made between us. 1.6 Please read these Terms carefully before you download the App, start to use the Riide Services or make a Booking, as these will apply to your use of the App and the Riide Services available through it. In particular, please read the terms relating to the limitations of our liability to you below in Promises, liability and disclaimer under paragraph 18, before making Booking. 1.7 By using our App and the Riide Services, you confirm that you accept these Terms and that you agree to comply with them. If you do not accept these Terms, you should not use the App or the Riide Services. 1.8 We may revise these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy from time to time in accordance with the provisions under ‘Changes to these Terms of Use’ in Section C so please check these Terms regularly to ensure you understand the Terms which will apply at that time you make a Booking. These Terms of Use were most recently updated on the date of posting that appears at the top of this page. 1.9 If you have any queries or concerns regarding these Terms or require any technical assistance in relation to the App, please contact us at info@riide.co. 2 The Riide platform and our role 2.1 We provide a platform, comprising the App and Riide Services, which allows Users to obtain fare estimates and book Transportation Services with Operators from their Device using the App. Accordingly, our role is to facilitate Bookings and transactions between Users and Operators through provision of the App and Riide Services. We are not an agent of the Operators and we have no continuing authority to negotiate, deal with, manage, conduct or conclude any Bookings for, or the sale or purchase of, Transportation Services on behalf of Operators. 2.2 We are not involved in, and bear no responsibility for, the actual transactions between Users Operators. The contract for the provision of Transportation Services is made directly between the User and the Operator (Contract). 2.3 Whilst we may provide relevant information from the Operator as part of our Services (e.g. price estimates), such information is for information only. We have no control over, and are not in any way responsible for, the existence, quality, safety or legality of the Transportation Services advertised. Users should select and satisfy themselves as to the most appropriate Booking for their needs and we do not provide any suggestion, advice, recommendation or guidance as to the appropriate Booking or Transportation Services requirements for a User. 2.4 The responsibility for compliance and enforcement of all obligations under the Contract is between the User and the Operator. 2.5 If a User chooses to pay for a Booking using the App, we will process those payments and payment will be passed directly to the relevant Operators on the User’s behalf in accordance with these Terms. 3 Accessing and using the Riide Services 3.1 To use the Riide Services or make a Booking you must be 18 years of age or older and: 3.1.1 download the App from an Appstore and install it on a compatible Device that has an internet connection. For further details regarding the devices supported by the App, please visit our website at www.riide.co; and 3.1.2 register for the Riide Services by creating an account using the App. 3.2 We try to make the Riide Services available at all times, but, of course, due to the inherent nature of online and internet based services, we cannot guarantee this. 3.3 You must make sure that all the information you provide when registering an account and making a Booking is true, accurate, current and complete. 3.4 If you change any of your registration details (e.g. name, email address or postal address) you must promptly update your account. 3.5 To help us maintain the security of the Riide Services, you must keep your registration and login details confidential. If you become aware of any misuse or unauthorised use of your registration details, then you must inform us immediately by sending us an email at info@riide.co. 3.6 If you have breached, or we have justifiable reason to believe that you have breached, or will breach, these Terms, we may terminate or suspend your registration and/or access to the Riide Services including access to your account. 3.7 You can close your account at any time. If you would like to do so, please contact us by email at info@riide.co. 3.8 We reserve the right to delete your account and any personal data or other information associated with your use of the Riide Services if there is no activity on your account for more than 24 consecutive months. 4 Your privacy 4.1 We take your privacy very seriously. Please read our Privacy Policy to see how we use your personal information. 4.2 We may send service notifications and other messages to you via the inbox feature within the App or, where you agree, using push notifications. SECTION B: MAKING A BOOKING 5 Booking a journey 5.1 You may request at any time a Booking for immediate travel or booking for a time or date in the future. Please see the provisions below in this Section B for step-by-step instructions on how to make a Booking. 5.2 We may make changes to the Riide Services at any time but will make every effort to ensure that these do not substantially and adversely affect your use of those services. 6 Booking requirements 6.1 To make a Booking you must first login to your account using the App and must have the means of payment and sufficient funds to pay the final fare. 7 Making a Contract with Operators for the Transportation Services 7.1 Your Booking request is an offer to buy from the relevant Operator. When you are making a Booking, the following steps have to take place before a Contract is made between you and that Operator: 7.1.1 after selecting or inputting your pick-up and drop off locations, you will be presented with a fare estimate for your journey together with details of the Operator that will fulfil your Booking, including their contact telephone number. Before making your Booking request, you will be given the opportunity to review and, if necessary, to change your selected journey details. 7.1.2 you make your Booking request by pressing ‘Book Now’. 7.1.3 you will see an on-screen acknowledgement that your Booking request has been made. 7.1.4 the Operator accepts your order at the time you receive an email confirming your Booking (Confirmation Email). Accordingly, nothing that we or an Operator says or does will amount to any acceptance of your offer until you receive a Confirmation Email, at which point a Contract will be made between you and the Operator unless, prior to sending that email, we or the Operator notifies you that your Booking has not been accepted (see paragraph 8.1 below). We keep a record of your Booking history which you can view by logging-in to your account on the App. Your Booking and the provision of the Transportation Services will incorporate the terms and conditions of the applicable Operator allocated to fulfil your Booking. Please contact the individual Operator for details by using the contact telephone number and email address for that Operator in your Confirmation Email. 8 Refusal of your Booking request 8.1 Your Booking may be refused at the Operator’s sole discretion, including if the Operator has no cars available or if the User requesting the Booking has been blacklisted due to previous inappropriate behaviour. 9 Accessibility requirements 9.1 If you would like the vehicles you book to be accessible by wheelchair by default, please turn this feature on using the settings options within the App. 9.2 Unless agreed in advance with an Operator, child seats will not be provided for your journey. If you are travelling with any minors, you will be solely responsible for fitting and removing any child seat in a vehicle. 10 Substitute Operators 10.1 In the unlikely event the Operator allocated to your Booking is unable to fulfil your booking after you have submitted your Booking request, we may endeavour to find an alternative Operator to fulfil your Booking. We will inform you of the change of Operator using the contact information you have provided to us. 11 Fare estimates and payment 11.1 The fare estimates for your journey quoted on the App are inclusive of VAT and in British pounds sterling (GBP). 11.2 The period during which you can make a Booking based on the fare estimate presented to you varies due to factors including the particular Operator allocated to your journey, the time of day, the date, your journey details and the availability of cars. Consequently, we cannot guarantee that any quoted fare estimate will be active for any period of time. 11.3 The fare estimate quoted is not a fixed price and your actual fare will be calculated using the meter rate of the applicable Operator together with any initial pickup charge. Fare estimates exclude any extras services such as waiting time, parking or unscheduled stops. If available, extra services may be requested directly from the Operator and, if agreed, will be subject to their terms and conditions and may be subject to the payment of additional fees. 11.4 Operators currently accept payment by cash or if paying electronically using the App by debit card and via the following credit/charge cards: Visa, Mastercard and American Express. When making a Booking, you confirm that the form of payment that you use to make payment to us is yours and that you have authority to make the Booking. Charges vary across taxi operators! Please see your local operator or the company you booked with for current charges. 11.5 All charges for Bookings are payable after the completion of your journey. If you have chosen to pay electronically, payment for the charges, together with any auto-tip you have pre-selected (see Tips under paragraph 12) will be taken from your chosen payment method automatically after your journey has completed. 12 Tips 12.1 If you would like to tip the driver for your journey you may do so in cash at the end of your journey or by turning on the ‘auto-tip’ feature within the settings of the App and selecting the tip percentage (e.g. 10%). 12.2 If you turn on the auto-tip’ feature, until you turn the feature off, the payment taken using your electronic payment method at the end of every journey will include an additional amount for a tip that is equal to the percentage of the final fare that you selected at the time you turned that feature on. 13 Cancelling your Booking 13.1 If you would like to cancel your Booking, you can do so using the relevant option within the App or by contacting the applicable Operator by telephone directly. 13.2 You may cancel your Booking without charge at any time prior to dispatch of the vehicle by the applicable Operator. 13.3 If you wish to cancel your Booking after your vehicle has been dispatched a cancellation charge may apply. The cancellation charge will be based on the standard rates of the applicable Operator but will not exceed five British pounds sterling (£5) except in relation to airport pickups where the cancellation charges may be more. Please check the terms and conditions of service for the applicable Operator before making your Booking. 13.4 If you have chosen to pay for the Transportation Services using an electronic payment method, payment of your cancellation charge will be taken automatically using that method and a receipt will be provided to you by email. 14 Contacting your driver 14.1 If you have any difficulty locating your driver after making a Booking or if your driver does not arrive at the pick-up location, please contact the relevant Operator directly using the contact details provided within the App. Please quote your Booking reference number for your journey included in your Confirmation Email or provide the journey time and your full name. 15 Refunds and disputes with Operators 15.1 Any refund requests should be made directly to the applicable Operator using the contact details provided in the App and/or relevant Confirmation Email. We are not responsible for managing or obtaining refunds on your behalf. 15.2 Should a dispute arise between a User and Operator they should use their best efforts to resolve that dispute between them and all complaints and queries with respect to a Booking should be directed to the other party involved. We have no obligation to mediate between you and an Operator or to enforce any Contract.

The minimum requirements will be set out in the EULA and/or the relevant listing for the App on the App Store.

You agree to receive communications from us electronically and that electronic communications will satisfy any legal requirement for communications to be in writing. 25.2 Language. These Terms may be presented to you in more than one language. However, the English language version of these Terms shall prevail. Each Contract between you and an Operator will be concluded in English. 25.3 Our reliance on these Terms. We intend to rely on these written Terms and any document expressly referred to in them in relation to their subject matter. We and you will be legally bound by these Terms. 25.4 References to ‘including’ and other similar expressions. In these Terms, words that appear after the expression ‘include’, ‘including’, ‘other’, ‘for example’, ‘such as’ or ‘in particular’ (or any similar expression) will not limit the meaning of the words appearing before such expression. 25.5 We may transfer the agreement between us to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another organisation. 25.6 Events or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

No person other than you and us shall have any rights to enforce any of these Terms of Use. 25.9 If a court finds part of these Terms illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect. 25.10 Even if we delay enforcing these Terms, we can still enforce them later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of you breaking these Terms, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. 25.11 Which laws apply to these Terms. These Terms and any Contracts are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of them in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms or any Contract in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms or any Contract in either the Northern Irish or the English courts. 25.12 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we or an Operator has handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider we use. You can submit a complaint to the IDRS (part of the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution) via their website at http://www.cedr.com/idrs/. IDRS will not charge you for making a complaint and if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can still bring legal proceedings.
