Oyi will set the retail price for each resale of advertising space and time under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements on an individual project basis in the exercise of its sole, unrestricted discretion.

    • Your Obligation To Fund Media Commitments. Funds must be available from you in advance to cover all non-cancelable media commitments made by Oyi for resale to you under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements. Lead times for various media partners differ, so the payment schedule will be set forth in the Media Plan for each campaign. Funds may be made available by advance payment, bank letter of credit, escrow account, or any other reasonable method the parties agree upon from time to time. If sufficient advance funds are not available at any given time, Oyi may refrain from purchasing advertising space and time for resale to you or cancel any media commitments that have not been funded, as Oyi may determine in the exercise of its sole, unrestricted discretion. Alternatively, media partners may require you to fund media commitments directly by credit card or other billing, in accordance with the applicable media partner’s terms, conditions and policies, including API integration terms and conditions. In cases where media partners may require you to fund media commitments directly: (i) Oyi will purchase the advertising space and time as the principal and resell such advertising space and time to you (for the avoidance of doubt, Oyi shall not be purchasing advertising space and time as your agent on behalf of a disclosed principal), (ii) you hereby agree to pay such media partners directly in accordance with the applicable media partner’s terms, conditions and policies, including API integration terms and conditions, and (iii) the applicable media partner shall look solely to you, and not to Oyi, to fund such media commitments, it being understood and agreed that Oyi shall bear no responsibility or liability to you or any third party (including the applicable media partner) for non-payment of any such media commitments in any instance(s).

    • Your Ownership Of Your Ideas and Plans For Advertisement Placements. As between you and Oyi, any idea or plan for the placement of Advertisements developed or produced under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements which is prepared by Oyi for you and adopted by you in connection with the placement of such Advertisements will become your property when you have paid our invoice. For avoidance of doubt, nothing herein grants you any rights in or to the Oyi Platform and Services, including any of Oyi’s proprietary advertising measurement and optimization systems.

    • Cancellations of Media Plans. You have the right at any time to direct Oyi to cancel any Media Plans in progress for the placement of Advertisements developed, produced or distributed by Oyi on your behalf under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements, but you agree to indemnify Oyi against any loss, cost or liability Oyi may sustain as a result of such action. Oyi will be entitled to the difference between (i) the wholesale price of any advertising space and time assessed by Oyi’s network of media partners, and the resale price of such advertising space and time for each resale of advertising space and time under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements on an individual project basis (such difference, the “Oyi Media Placement Margin” for any services performed by Oyi prior to your instructions to cancel, and for media commitments made by Oyi on your behalf under these Terms pursuant to a Media Plan if Oyi is unable to halt such payment or delivery. Under no circumstances will Oyi be obliged to breach any lawful contractual commitment to third parties for the placement of any Advertisements developed or produced by Oyi under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements.

    • Collections. In the event that Oyi is required to resort to collection procedures or litigation for the collection of any Oyi Media Placement Margin due under Section 7(e) above for services performed by Oyi prior to your instructions to cancel for the placement of Advertisements development or produced by Oyi on your behalf under these Terms or any Definitive License Agreements, the prevailing party shall be entitled to collect from the other reasonable attorney’s fees and costs in addition to such compensation.

    • Data and Analytics. For all media commitments made by Oyi as a principal under these Terms pursuant to a Media Plan, as part of the Advertisement Distribution Tools and Services, Oyi will make available to you data and information regarding the execution of such campaigns, as determined by Oyi in the exercise of its sole discretion. Examples of the types of data and information that Oyi may make available to you under these Terms include digital impressions delivered, media placement spending and CPMs. All such data and information will constitute the Confidential Information of Oyi in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 20(a) of these Terms (Confidentiality; Non-Disclosure).

    • Procedures. The persons and entities entitled to be indemnified under Sections 10(a) and 13(b), above (individually and collectively, “lndemnitee”) shall (i) promptly inform the indemnifying party under such Sections (“lndemnitor”) of each Claim with respect to which it seeks indemnity (failure to give such prompt notification will not relieve the lndemnitor of its indemnification obligations except to the extent such failure has materially prejudiced the lndemnitor’s ability to defend such claim), (ii) furnish to the lndemnitor a copy of each communication, notice or other action related to such Claim, and (iii) give the lndemnitor the authority, information and reasonable assistance necessary to settle or litigate such Claim using counsel selected by the lndemnitor (provided, however, that the lndemnitee shall have the opportunity to participate in the defense of such Claim with counsel of its choice, at the lndemnitee’s sole cost).

  14. Taxes. All amounts payable by you to Oyi, including, without limitation, Oyi Commissions, Generic Voice Model License Fees and Oyi Media Placement Commissions, will be gross amounts and you will be responsible for, or otherwise will pay, any taxes, duties, fees, expenses or charges incurred by you in remitting your payment. Oyi is not responsible for determining the tax implications of your transactions using the Oyi Platform and Services. You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your transactions using the Oyi Platform and Services. If you are legally required to deduct or withhold taxes from any amounts payable to Oyi hereunder, including, without limitation, Oyi Commissions and Generic Voice Model License Fees, then you may deduct and withhold the applicable taxes from such amounts, however, you shall gross-up payments to Oyi, including, without limitation, Oyi Commissions, Generic Voice Model License Fees and Oyi Media Placement Commissions, in respect of such deductions and withholdings such that Oyi receives the full amount owed to Oyi. Promptly following Oyi’s written request in each instance, you will provide Oyi with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as Oyi may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid. Upon request, you shall provide Oyi with a validly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service form to establish your U.S. or non-U.S. status and any other necessary tax documentation that Oyi may request from you, such as an IRS Form W-9 or W-8BEN. You will not be liable for any taxes that are based upon Oyi’s income.

  15. Independent Contractor. In entering into these Terms, Oyi and you have and will have the status of independent contractors. Accordingly, there is no joint venture, partnership, agency or fiduciary relationship existing between the parties, and the parties do not intend to create any such relationship by these Terms

  16. Assignment. Oyi may assign its rights under these Terms in whole or in part to any person or entity, and such rights may be assigned by any assignee thereof. Any purported assignment by you will be null and void. These Terms will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to these Terms and their heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, and, where permitted, successors and assigns.

  17. Notices.

  18. Applicable Law, Arbitration and Waiver of Right To Bring Class Action.

    • Initial Dispute Resolution. Oyi can be contacted via the contacts provided in Section 23 of these Terms (Contact Information) to address any concerns you may have regarding your participation in the Oyi Platform and Services. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. Each of you and Oyi agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

    • Agreement to Binding Arbitration.

      If you and Oyi do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 18(a) above in these Terms, then either party may initiate binding arbitration. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your participation in the Oyi Platform and Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered on a confidential basis by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The interpretation and enforcement of these Terms shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.

      Arbitration proceedings will be held in Travis County, Texas unless you are a consumer, in which case you may elect to hold the arbitration at the JAMS office closest to your residence. For purposes of this Section 18, a "consumer" means a person using the Oyi Platform and Services for personal, family or household purposes. Additionally, arbitrations may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $10,000. You and Oyi agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Texas and the United States sitting in Travis County, Texas have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

      The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

      The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

    • Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver. You and Oyi each further agree that any court action or arbitration shall be conducted in our respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and you and Oyi each expressly waive our respective right to file a class action, class arbitration, or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action and class arbitration waiver set forth in this Section paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above in Section 18(b) above in these Terms shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

    • Exception - Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

    • Exception – California Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) Action. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.

    • Exception – Intellectual Property Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an individual (non-class) action in a court of competent jurisdiction (which jurisdiction shall be exclusive), with respect to any dispute relating to a party’s intellectual property rights where the only relief sought is for injunctive or equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property.

    • Arbitration Fees. If you are a consumer and you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250.00), Oyi will pay the additional cost. If Oyi is required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and Oyi will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. Oyi will also be responsible for paying all other fees or amounts payable to JAMS with respect to the arbitration, excluding costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. If you are not a consumer, each party will be responsible for applicable fees or other amounts payable to JAMS with respect to the arbitration.

    • 30 Day Right to Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in Sections 18(a) and 18(b) above in these Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out by emailing us at help@oyi.ai. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of creating your Business User Account for the Oyi Platform and Services, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those Sections. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by these arbitration provisions.

    • Exclusive Venue for Litigation. To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 15(b) of these Terms do not apply or if you have opted out of arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Travis County, Texas (State and Federal) for any litigation other than small claims court actions. In the event of litigation relating to these Terms, the parties agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial.

    • Consolidation of Arbitration Claims. Although you and Oyi have agreed that no disputes may proceed as part of a class arbitration, the JAMS mediator may consolidate an individual arbitration filed under these Terms with other individual arbitration(s), at the request of either party, if the arbitrations share common issues of law or fact. The consolidation issue shall be determined by the arbitrator appointed for the earliest filed application. Any disputes over whether an arbitration claim should be consolidated with others, or which arbitrator shall hear any consolidated matter, shall be resolved by JAMS. If multiple individual arbitration proceedings are consolidated, JAMS and the arbitrator may treat the consolidated proceedings as one arbitration for purposes of assessing JAMS fees and the arbitrator’s compensation, and you consent and agree not to object to any reduction or elimination of JAMS fees or arbitrator compensation.

  19. Limitation of Liability. BUSINESS USER SHALL HAVE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO DETERMINE WHETHER ANY ADVERTISEMENTS DERIVED FROM AI VOICE STEMS PRODUCED BY OYI ON YOUR BEHALF UNDER THESE TERMS OR ANY DEFINITIVE LICENSE AGREEMENTS, AND ALL RELATED IDEAS, CONCEPTS, GRAPHICS, SYMBOLS, DESIGNS, AND OTHER COMPONENT PARTS THEREOF, WHETHER OR NOT CONTRIBUTED THROUGH THE OYI PLATFORM AND SERVICES, ARE APPROPRIATE FOR ANY AND ALL PURPOSES, INCLUDING MARKET PLACEMENT, AND BUSINESS USER SHALL HAVE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO DECIDE WHETHER AND IN WHAT MANNER SUCH ADVERTISEMENTS AND CAMAPIGNS FOR THE PLACEMENT OF SUCH ADVERTISEMENTS SHALL BE EXECUTED. BOTH PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE SUCCESS OF ANY ADVERTISEMENTS AND CAMAPIGNS FOR THE PLACEMENT OF SUCH ADVERTISEMENTS DEPEND UPON A NUMBER OF FACTORS BEYOND THE REASONABLE CONTROL OF EITHER PARTY, AND THAT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ANY ADVERTISEMENTS AND CAMAPIGNS FOR THE PLACEMENT OF SUCH ADVERTISEMENTS IN ACHIEVING BUSINESS USER’S PROMOTIONAL OBJECTIVES CANNOT BE GUARANTEED BY OYI. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 13 OF THESE TERMS, NEITHER PARTY HERETO WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, AND THE LIKE, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

  20. Restrictions.

    • Confidentiality; Non-Disclosure. Neither party may issue a press release or announcement with respect to these Terms without the other party’s prior written consent. You acknowledge and agree that all information, documentation or material not in the public domain concerning the business and operations of Oyi, and the applicable Premium Voice Talent including, without limitation: (i) information relating to its services (including the Oyi Platform and Services), pricing, trade secrets, patents, business methods, financial and cost data, budgets, forecasts, business plans and strategies (whether or not pursued); marketing and selling strategies; unpublished financial statements; licenses (including Definitive License Agreements); Proposals; intellectual property and any work thereon prior to any filing or the use thereof in commerce; timing, know-how; and (ii) any other information, documentation or material not in the public domain by virtue of any action by or on behalf of you, the knowledge of which gives or may give you or the applicable Premium Voice Talent a material competitive advantage over any person or entity not possessing such information (collectively, the "Confidential Information") will remain the property of Oyi or the applicable Premium Voice Talent, as applicable. You recognize and agree that all of the Confidential Information that will be developed by you or made available to you by virtue of your participation in the Oyi Platform and Services and involvement with the business and affairs of Oyi and the applicable Premium Voice Talent, other than information that is generally known to the public, is a unique asset of the business of Oyi or the applicable Business User, the disclosure of which would be damaging to Oyi or the applicable Premium Voice Talent. Accordingly, you agree to hold such Confidential Information in the strictest confidence for the benefit of Oyi, the applicable Premium Voice Talent, as applicable. You will not, at any time, during or after the Term for any reason, directly or indirectly, (w) disclose to any person or entity any Confidential Information of Oyi or the applicable Premium Voice Talent, other than information that is already known to the public, except as may be required pursuant to applicable law, regulation or subpoena or with the prior written consent of Oyi and the applicable Premium Voice Talent; (x) act or fail to act so as to impair the confidential or proprietary nature of any Confidential Information; (y) use any Confidential Information other than for the sole and exclusive benefit of Oyi and the applicable Premium Voice Talent; or (z) offer or agree to, or cause or assist in the inception or continuation of, any such disclosure, impairment or use of any Confidential Information. For the avoidance of doubt, Prompts supplied by you under these Terms and any Business User Scripts generated by Script Vendors in response to Prompts supplied by you shall not be deemed to constitute your Confidential Information.

    • Non-Solicitation of Premium Voice Talent. During the Term and continuing through and including the date that is twelve (12) months after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, you hereby agree that for any Premium Voice Talent who has either initiated or responded to a Proposal via or in connection with the Oyi Platform for the use and exploitation of a Premium Voice Model during the Term, you will not engage in any transactions with such Premium Voice Talent, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the Territory, with respect to the same subject matter of the Proposal, that involves the use or production of an AI-generated voice derived from the voice of the applicable Premium Voice Talent, by an entity other than Oyi, for use in an advertisement.

  21. Injunctive Relief. You acknowledge and agree that damages may not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach of any of your obligations under these Terms. You therefore agree that Oyi will be entitled (without limitation of any other rights or remedies otherwise available to Oyi and without the necessity of posting a bond) to obtain an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the continuance or recurrence of any breach of these Terms.

  22. Miscellaneous. These Terms contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties, and supersedes any and all other prior and/or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, all of which are merged herein. Each party to these Terms acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, have been made by either party, or anyone acting on behalf of either party, which are not embody herein, and that no other agreement, statement or promise not contained in these Terms will be valid or binding. No waiver of any provision of these Terms will be valid unless made in writing and signed by the party making the waiver. No waiver of any provision of these Terms will constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor will any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. These Terms will be construed and interpreted without regard to any presumption against the party causing these Terms to be drafted. Whenever examples are used in these Terms with the words “including,” “e.g.,” “such as,” “etc.” or any derivation thereof, such examples are intended to be illustrative and not in limitation thereof. The paragraph headings herein are used solely for convenience and shall not be used in the interpretation or construction of these Terms. Each term and provision of these Terms is severable; the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability or modification of any term or provision of these Terms will not affect the validity, legality and enforceability of the other terms and provisions of these Terms, which will remain in full force and effect.
