In either case, Services for the VoIP line(s) will be referred to as “VoIP Service”, for which the following additional terms shall apply:
Grant of Rights
UNIVOXX grants You a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license, and right to use each VoIP line exclusively with one user under Your Account, subject to all the other terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, if You want to allow multiple users to use the VoIP Service, You will need to purchase at least one VoIP line for each user.
Charges and Plan Credits
UNIVOXX offers several different plan options for VoIP Service. You may change Your VoIP Service plan at any time; however, a one-time processing fee of ten dollars ($10) may apply when “downgrading” an existing plan to a plan with lower monthly fees (e.g., a plan with fewer minutes and/or features). In addition, certain plans may entitle You to receive discounts on equipment used in connection with UNIVOXX VoIP Service. If You receive any equipment discounts associated with a VoIP Service plan and subsequently change that plan to one that does not offer those equipment discounts, You agree to reimburse UNIVOXX, and hereby authorize UNIVOXX to charge Your credit card or ACH from your bank account on file, for such equipment discounts.
Equipment
To use the VoIP Service, You may need to purchase phones, headsets, computers, or other equipment (collectively, “Equipment”). All Equipment shipments are F.O.B. UNIVOXX’s shipping distributor facility. UNIVOXX’s liability for delivery shall cease, and title to such Equipment (if applicable) and all risk of loss or damage shall pass to You upon delivery to the shipping carrier.
All equipment obtained from UNIVOXX in connection with VoIP Service is subject to the Equipment Return Policy above. You understand and acknowledge that if You purchase an annual service plan and You cancel the Services plan prior to the end of Your initial term, cancellation or termination fees, or phone, hardware, and other equipment fees may apply in accordance with the terms and conditions of Your plan. You hereby authorize UNIVOXX to charge Your credit card, and You hereby agree to be liable for any and all such fees, costs, and charges.
VoIP 911 Service
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT 911 SERVICE IS ONLY PROVIDED BY UNIVOXX IP DESK PHONES, AND THE OTHER UNIVOXX SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES DO NOT PROVIDE 911 SERVICE.
UNIVOXX VoIP 911 Service (“VoIP 911 Service”) operates differently than traditional 911 service. We are required by the FCC to advise you of the circumstances under which 911 may not be available or may be in some way limited by comparison to traditional 911 service. Such circumstances include:
Internet Connection Failure. If the connection to the wired broadband Internet over which Your UNIVOXX VoIP Service is provided is interrupted, You would not have access to UNIVOXX VoIP Service during that interruption and therefore will not have access to VoIP 911 service during that interruption.
Number Flexibility & Service Portability. Traditional 911 service automatically sends Your 911 call to the appropriate local emergency responder, or Public Safety Answering Point (“PSAP”), based on Your telephone number. Traditional Enhanced 911 service (also known as E911) automatically sends Your 911 call to the appropriate PSAP along with Your registered address and telephone number. Because the UNIVOXX VoIP Service permits You to obtain a telephone number that does not correspond to Your geographic location (for example, You may obtain a UNIVOXX VoIP telephone number with a California area code even if You do not have a California address) and allows You to use UNIVOXX VoIP Service anywhere You have wired broadband Internet, the VoIP 911 Service functions differently than traditional 911 service in certain respects:
Because Your address does not necessarily correspond with Your telephone number, You must provide UNIVOXX with the street address(es) where You will be using UNIVOXX VoIP Service (“Registered Location(s)”) when You sign up for service.
If You relocate any equipment (PC with softphone, IP phone, or ATA with traditional phone) that You use to access the VoIP Service, You must update Your Registered Location(s). If You do not update your Registered Location(s), any 911 calls You make using the VoIP Service will be routed based on Your previously provided Registered Location and therefore may not be routed to the appropriate PSAP for Your new location.
In addition, because the VoIP Service will, where possible, automatically transmit Your Registered Location to the PSAP, You must update Your Registered Location to ensure that the VoIP Service transmits accurate location information to the PSAP.
Once You notify us of a change in Your Registered Location, there may be a delay in making the new Registered Location available to properly route 911 calls and advise PSAPs of Your new Registered Location.
In some parts of the country where direct routing to PSAPs is not available for VoIP 911 Service, the Service will route Your call to the National Emergency Call Center where trained agents will ask for the name, location, and telephone number of the person calling 911 and will contact the appropriate PSAP to send help. The call center will not automatically receive Your address and telephone number. In these situations, public safety response times may be delayed. As a result, there may be an additional delay before emergency services arrive.
Loss of Electrical Power. Unless You have a backup system to power Your wired broadband Internet connection and any equipment (PC with softphone, IP phone, ATA with traditional phone) that You use to access Your VoIP Service, You will not have phone service or 911 service during any power outage.
Emergency Pull-strings: If your location has pull-strings that trigger alarms, notifications, or alerts, UniVoxx shall not be held liable for any malfunctions, failures, or damages arising from:
- Internet connectivity issues, including but not limited to outages, insufficient bandwidth, or network failures.
- Any failure of the pull strings that results from improper use, lack of maintenance, or neglect by the Client.
- Failure by the Client to perform weekly testing of all pull-strings and report issues.
Registration of Physical Locations Required. As discussed above, You must register the Registered Location where You will be using VoIP service for each VoIP phone line You use from UNIVOXX (e.g., if You purchase UNIVOXX Office with three VoIP lines, You must provide a Registered Location for each of the three VoIP lines). UNIVOXX will obtain Your Registered Location as part of the service initiation process and will not provide VoIP Service until you have provided Your initial Registered Location. However, You must update Your Registered Location when You use Your VoIP Service from a new location. Regardless of what address You register, in some circumstances, such as unavailability of direct routing to PSAPs or the use of portable devices to access the VoIP Service, emergency calls will be routed to the National Emergency Call Center.
You agree to provide true, accurate, current, and complete Registered Location information to UNIVOXX as part of the service initiation process and to update as soon as possible Your Registered Location with true, accurate, current, and complete information whenever You use Your VoIP Service from a new location. If You provide Registered Location information that is, or that UNIVOXX suspects to be, false, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, UNIVOXX has the right to suspend or terminate the Services and refuse any and all current or future use of all Services, or any portion thereof. UNIVOXX will not, however, disable Your ability to make a 911 call during any service suspension.
You may update Your Registered Location by logging on to the UniVoxx management portal and adding or modifying a location, and updating the location on each extension. Alternatively, you may email [email protected] or call customer support at 3136265000. For purposes of 911 Dialing, You may only register one Registered Location for each VoIP line.
Notify All Users of 911 Limitations. You should inform all business colleagues, household residents, guests, and other persons who may be present at the physical location where You utilize the VoIP Service that 911 may not be available or may be in some way limited in comparison to traditional 911 service. UNIVOXX will provide VoIP subscribers stickers warning that “E911 Service May Be Limited or Not Available” for use with any VoIP equipment by mailing stickers to subscribers upon Service initiation. It is Your responsibility to place these stickers on the equipment You use to access VoIP Service. If You have not received a sticker, or You require additional 911 stickers, please contact customer support at 3136265000.
Disclaimer of 911 Liability. UNIVOXX disclaims all responsibility for the conduct of PSAPs, the National Emergency Call Center, and all other third parties involved in the provision of emergency response services. UNIVOXX does not have any control over PSAPs, the National Emergency Call Center, or other third parties and is therefore not responsible for whether they answer 911 calls made using the VoIP service, how they answer these calls, or how they handle or respond to these calls. UNIVOXX relies on third parties to assist it in the provision of 911 service and disclaims any and all liability for acts or omissions by third parties in the provision of UNIVOXX’s 911 service.
Operator Assisted Calling, 311, 511, and other X11 Calling
The VoIP Service does not support 0+ or operator assisted calling (including, without limitation, collect calls, third party billing calls, 900, or calling card calls). The VoIP Service may not support 311, 411, 511, and/or other X11 calling (other than 911 and 711 as specified in this Agreement) in one or more service areas.
711 Calling
The VoIP Service allows You to dial 711 to reach Telecommunications Relay Services (“TRS”). TRS enables persons with hearing or speech disabilities to access the public telephone system and communicate with voice telephone users through a communications assistant at a TRS relay center. Because the VoIP Service allows You to use a phone number that may not reflect Your geographic location, 711 calls made using the VoIP Service may not be routed to the appropriate TRS center for Your geographic location.
Publicity Rights
You agree that UNIVOXX may identify You as a user of the Services in its business deals; press releases; marketing materials; electronic, printed, and broadcast advertising; newsletters; mailings; tradeshows; other promotional materials; on UNIVOXX’s website; or any other third-party website where UNIVOXX or its designated agents may promote the Services. You hereby grant UNIVOXX and its agents an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free license (with right to sublicense) to use, reproduce, publish, and display Your name, trademarks, service marks, designs, logos, and symbols in connection with such purpose.
Non-disparagement
You agree not to directly or indirectly through a third party engage in any conduct or make any communication (public or private) that disparages UNIVOXX or the Applications or Services in any way. Such communications include, but are not limited to, publishing, posting, printing, disseminating, or otherwise making such disparaging statements on or through the Internet, in any blog, or through any other form of social media. You further agree not to solicit or encourage, directly or indirectly, any such statements, comments, or communications by any third-party. In accordance with the termination provisions below, UNIVOXX may terminate Your access to the Applications or Services if You breach the requirements of this section.
Copyright Infringement
Materials may be made available via the Service by third parties not within our control. We are under no obligation to, and do not, review content transmitted, sent, or received using the Applications or Services for purposes of determining copyright infringement. However, UNIVOXX reserves the right to terminate access to its Applications or Services if a user infringes on others’ copyrights, and will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate access to the Applications or Services if UNIVOXX determines that a user is a repeat infringer.
Pursuant to Title 17, Section 512 of the United States Code, all claims of copyright infringement for any material You believe to reside on UNIVOXX’s Applications or Services should be provided in writing to UNIVOXX’s Legal Department at UNIVOXX’s current address as posted on UNIVOXX’s Website.

You also acknowledge that the Applications and Services may be subject to other U.S. and foreign laws and regulations governing the export of software by physical or electronic means. You agree to comply with all applicable U.S. and foreign laws that apply to UNIVOXX as well as end-users end-use, and destination restrictions imposed by U.S. and foreign governments.
Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, You shall indemnify and hold harmless, individually and collectively, UNIVOXX, its affiliates, agents, members, owners, resellers, and other providers who furnish goods and services to You in connection with the Services, and their officers, directors, managers, employees, and shareholders (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liability, claims, losses (including loss of profits, revenue and goodwill), damages, fines, penalties, injuries to persons or property, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and dispute resolution expenses) arising from or related to (1) the use of or reliance upon the Applications or Services by You or any third party acting upon Your permission, knowledge, authority or direction, (2) a breach of this Agreement by You, (3) any negligent acts, omissions to act or willful misconduct by You or any third party acting with Your permission, knowledge, authority or direction, (4) the inability to use the Applications or Services or failure or outage of the Applications or Services for any reason, including but not limited to those related to calling, “911” or other emergency responders, (5) the use of the Applications or Services in connection with a violation of any applicable law, code, regulation, or ordnance, and/or (6) the misappropriation, breach, violation, or infringement of any right, title or interest of any third party, including but not limited to, contractual rights, intellectual property rights (including patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret rights), rights of privacy, and rights of publicity and personality.
Term

Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, or any subsequent renewal Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for an additional Term unless the Customer provides UniVoxx with written notice of non-renewal. The Term for all Service plans will renew automatically for successive Terms of the same length without further action by or notice to You unless You notify UNIVOXX customer service of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the end of the then current Term, unless otherwise provided in Your Services contract.
If the Customer terminates the Service prior to the end of the then current term, the Customer shall be liable for a termination fee equal to (i) all charges, taxes, expenses, fees, including without limitation, all unbilled charges and disconnect fees; plus (ii) an amount equal to the number months remaining in the then current term multiplied by the average monthly recurring charges on account (collectively, the “Termination Fee”). The Termination Fee shall be immediately due and payable to UniVoxx. If the customer has carried a balance for more than 1 month, UniVoxx may prevent transferring numbers until payment has been received in full.
For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Agreement relating to intellectual property ownership, customer representations, confidentiality, use policies and restrictions, equipment, number porting and availability, storage of user information, customer feedback, publicity rights, non-disparagement, additional software licenses, indemnification, force majeure, warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, notices, assignment, future changes, interpretation, dispute resolution and arbitration, and choice of law shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement for the maximum term allowable by law.

Interpretation of this Agreement
This Agreement, including the documents incorporated herein, constitutes the entire agreement between You and UNIVOXX with respect to the Applications and Services and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings regarding such subject matter.
If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed to reflect the parties’ original intent, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.
The failure of UNIVOXX to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or any other provision.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute or create employment, partnership, association, joint venture, agency, or fiduciary relationship between the parties hereto.
You agree and acknowledge that any breach of the provisions regarding intellectual property ownership contained in this Agreement shall cause UNIVOXX irreparable harm and UNIVOXX may obtain injunctive relief and seek all other remedies available in law and in equity.
The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
This electronic document and any other electronic documents, policies, and guidelines incorporated herein will be: (1) deemed for all purposes to be a “writing” or “in writing,” and to comply with all statutory, contractual, and other legal requirements for a writing; (2) legally enforceable as a signed writing as against the parties subject to the electronic documents; and (3) deemed an “original” when printed from electronic records established and maintained in the ordinary course of business. Electronic documents introduced as evidence in any judicial, arbitration, mediation, or administrative proceeding will, if established and maintained in the ordinary course of business, be admissible to the same extent as business records in written form that are similarly established and maintained.
Dispute Resolution and Optional Arbitration
In the event of any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement between You and UNIVOXX (“Dispute”), You and UNIVOXX shall first use reasonable best efforts to settle the dispute, claim, question, or disagreement. To this end, You and an authorized member of UNIVOXX’s legal department (or other representative of UNIVOXX designated by the legal department) shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties. Neither You nor UNIVOXX shall file or pursue any Disputes in any court, administrative, arbitral, or other adjudicative body prior to engaging in such consultations and negotiations.
Any conflict, controversy or claim which cannot be resolved between the parties shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the following provisions:
The arbitration will comply with and be governed by the provisions of the Michigan Rules of Civil Procedure and Evidence. If the parties are unable to agree on the selection of a single arbitrator to try and hear the case, the parties will each select one qualified arbitrator who will then select a third arbitrator whose decision will be final and conclusive on both parties. The cost of arbitration will be borne in such proportions as the arbitrators decide. The arbitrators’ decision shall provide a reasoned basis for the resolution of each dispute and for any award. The arbitrators shall not have the power to award damages in connection with any dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award consequential or punitive damages or award any other damages that are excluded under the provisions of this Agreement. The parties shall share equally the fees and expenses of the American Arbitration Association and the arbitrators. The arbitrators shall have power and authority to award any remedy or judgment that could be awarded by a court of law in the State of Michigan. The award rendered by arbitration shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Michigan, United States. All documents, communications, proceedings, and information, including transcripts or recordings, are confidential and will not be used or disclosed for any purpose outside the arbitration. All remedies and judgements shall be confidential.
Should You breach any of the terms this Agreement, You will be responsible for payment of all reasonable attorneys' fees, associated costs, and interest that UniVoxx incurred in the course of enforcing the terms of the Agreement, including demonstrating the existence of a breach and any other actionable efforts.
Choice of Law
This Agreement and Your use of the Applications and Services shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Michigan and the United States without regard to its conflict of law rules.
