3.1 Standard Per Op Fee. Veryable charges fees and collects payment for each Op performed. Veryable is responsible for and will initiate payment of any amounts owed to the Operators on a daily basis. You will be billed an amount equal to the payment made to the Operator for the Op plus the Per Op Fee once the Op has been completed by the Operator. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in written contract, the “Per Op Fee” for each Op is $45 for each single-day Op for each individual Operator. You may be charged for fractional Ops should your Op posting not conform to a standard Op. You will be billed weekly for Services performed in the respective week if you have provided a credit or debit card as your method of payment. You will be billed weekly for Services performed in the respective week with net 15 terms of payment, if You have chosen invoicing as your method of payment. You agree to provide Veryable with complete and accurate billing and contact information, including but not limited to, the Business’s legal name, e- mail address, and the name of an authorized billing contact. You agree to update this information within thirty (30) days of any change to it. If the contact information you have provided is false or fraudulent, Veryable reserves the right to terminate Your access to the Services, and any outstanding Work Opportunities, in addition to any other remedies at law.
3.2 Tiered Pricing and Annual Contracts. You may choose to enter into a Tiered Pricing and/or an Annual contract plan. Should You choose to do so, You agree to the terms of the Pricing Addendum to this Agreement that will supersede the terms in section 3.1 of this Agreement. All other sections and terms of this Agreement will be incorporated into the addendum and remain in full affect.
3.3 Taxes. Veryable’s fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including but not limited to value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any local, state, provincial, federal or foreign jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with your purchases hereunder. If Veryable has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which you are responsible under this section, the appropriate amount shall be invoiced to and paid by you.
3.4 Late Cancellation Fee. In the event that you cancel an Op that has already been awarded to a specific Operator less than 12 hours before the start time of the Op, you will be required to pay a minimum amount of 4 hours pay or 50% of a piecework Op. Cancellation or re-entry of any Op that has not been awarded to a specific Operator, regardless of timing, will not result in any cancellation fees.
3.5 Adjustment to Operator Hours. There may be occurrences when an Operator works fewer hours than the hours you posted for that specific Op. When this occurs, it is your responsibility to report the reduction in hours for that Op through the Platform by 11:00am central time the day following the Op's end-time. Failure to do so will result in the Operator being paid for the full amount of hours for that Op and you will be responsible for paying the full amount charged by Veryable.
3.6 Operator Extended Pay. In the event an Operator works in excess of 40 hours while performing Op(s) for you in a given week, you agree to being charged 1.5 times the Op pay rate plus the applicable Service Fee for any hours exceeding 40.
4. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ALL PARTIES
4.1 The Parties expressly agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency agreement exists between them as a result of this Agreement or any use of the Services.
4.2 Worker classification. Veryable Operators are independent contractors. Veryable does not, in any way, supervise, direct, or control an Operators’ work or Services performed in any manner. Veryable does not set an Operator’s work hours and location of work, nor is Veryable involved in determining the type or manner compensation to be paid for any work performed by an Operator. Veryable will not provide an Operator with training or any equipment, labor or materials needed for a particular Op.
4.3 Marketplace Platform. Veryable is an online platform for businesses to create and advertise Ops to prospective Operators and does not perform any operational services. Operators do not perform services for a predetermined wage paid on a periodic basis. Operator payment is a flat amount paid upon completion of the job. Business users post Ops for bids subject to competitive offers from qualified members of the public who register on the Veryable platform as a prospective Operator. Operators, not business users, make offers. Operator offers in response to an invitation for bids do not constitute acceptance by a business user. Responses to Ops are subject to negotiation of the terms and specifications of the Op, counter-offers, bid withdrawal by prospective Operators, and rejection or cancellation prior to an acceptance at the discretion of both Operators and business users. When an Operator’s offer is accepted by a business user, a contract is formed. As such, every payment amount is variable and based on several factors, including but not limited to the cost competitiveness of the offer or bid, the performance rating of an Operator, the Operator’s stated estimate of the time to complete the Op, the Operator’s stated availability to perform, as well as external factors, including regulatory developments, that may shape the supply of prospective Operators. As a condition of using the Veryable platform, you certify that your Ops and payments comply with these terms.

10. ARBITRATION, CLASS WAIVER AND JURY WAIVER
10.1 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement that cannot be resolved in small claims court will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, except that you and Veryable are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents.
10.2 Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute-resolution provision. Arbitration will be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. The rules of the arbitral forum will govern all aspects of this arbitration, except to the extent those rules conflict with this Agreement. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount sought is less than $10,000 USD may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount sought is $10,000 USD or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the arbitral forum’s rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
10.3 Authority of the Arbitrator. The arbitrator will decide the jurisdiction of the arbitration and the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Veryable. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Agreement. The arbitrator will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Veryable.
10.4 Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND VERYABLE WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JURY. You and Veryable are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and Veryable over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND VERYABLE WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.
10.5 Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
10.6 Confidentiality. No part of the procedures will be open to the public or the media. All evidence discovered or submitted at the hearing is confidential and may not be disclosed, except by written agreement of the parties, pursuant to court order, or unless required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party will be prevented from submitting to a court of law any information needed to enforce this arbitration agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
10.7 Arbitration Agreement Survival. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Veryable.
11. GENERAL
11.1 This Agreement contains the complete, full, and exclusive understanding of the parties as to its subject matter and shall supersede any prior agreement or verbal communication between the parties.

11.2 Amendment. Veryable reserves the right to change this Agreement and any additional terms at any time, effective upon making the modified provisions available on the Platform or by notifying you directly.

11.4 Survival on Termination. All disclaimers, indemnities and exclusions in this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Platform Agreement.
11.5 Severance. If any provision of this Agreement or part thereof is rendered void, illegal or unenforceable by any legislation to which it is subject, it shall be rendered void, illegal or unenforceable to that extent and no further and, for the avoidance of doubt, the rest of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the legality, validity and enforceability of the whole of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction shall not be affected.
11.6 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. To the extent the parties are permitted under this Agreement to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Veryable agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the use of the Platform will be litigated exclusively in the United States District Court of Delaware. Further, except to the extent they are preempted by U.S. federal law, the laws of Delaware govern this Agreement and any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its subject matter, including tort claims.
11.7 Termination. Unless otherwise agree to in an Addendum, Order Form or other contract, either party may terminate this Agreement without cause, effective immediately upon notice to the other party, at any time when there are no outstanding Ops or unpaid balances due hereunder.
11.8 Acknowledgment and Electronic Acceptance. BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT VIA THE VERYABLE WEBSITE OR VERYABLE APP, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS SET FORTH ABOVE AND AGREE THAT THE TERMS CONSTITUTE AN AGREEMENT THAT IS ENFORCEABLE AGAINST YOU. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT THE RECORD OF USER’S ACCEPTANCE WILL BE TREATED, FOR PURPOSES OF VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY AS WELL AS ADMISSIBILITY, THE SAME AS WRITTEN SIGNATURES.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT BEFORE ACCEPTING IT.
