and machine learning technology
and related functionality and services (the “Services”) offered by Brain Technologies, Inc. (“Brain”).
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS: WHEN YOU
AGREE TO THESE TERMS AS AN INDIVIDUAL USER, AND NOT ON BEHALF A
COMPANY OR LEGAL ENTITY, YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION)
TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND BRAIN THROUGH BINDING,
INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY

2.Privacy Policy. Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs your use of the
Services, for information on how we collect, use and share your

We may update the Terms at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do
so, we’ll let you know by notifying you through the Services
or through other communications. It’s important that you review the
Terms whenever we update them or you use the Services. If you continue
to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms, you are
agreeing to be bound by the updated Terms. If you don’t agree to be
bound by the updated Terms, then you may not use the Services anymore. Because our Services are
evolving over time we may change or discontinue all or any part of the
Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion. We
may add, remove, suspend or alter access to any functionality
available through or on the Services at any time and make no guarantee
as to the availability of specific functionality. The Services, or certain features or portions thereof, may be
offered in limited territories, and we may use geo-filtering
technology to restrict access outside of those territories.

Services (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us at feedback@brain.ai[ 5]. You grant to
us a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable,
fully-paid, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under any and all
intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy,
modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the
Feedback for any purpose.
6.Services. At your direction, the Services may allow you to use artificial intelligence (“AI”) functionality and Inputs (defined below) to take action
on your behalf, for example to place an order for goods or to purchase airline tickets, hotel stays, or rental cars (“Actions”).
(a)Third Party Terms. The purchase of all goods or services offered by third parties (“Third Party”) via this functionality of the Services are subject to separate terms and conditions made available by the applicable

(“Service Fees”).
(a)Input and Output. The Services will generate information or results from Actions (collectively, “Output”) in response to all information, data, content and other materials, in any form or
medium, that is provided, or otherwise made available through the
Services, by or on behalf you (“Input”). As between you and Brain, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 9(b), you own all Input and any
Output generated in response to such Input. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Output does not include any information that is proprietary to applicable
Third Parties.
(b)Brain’s
Ownership.
Brain does not claim any ownership rights in any Input
and nothing in these Terms will be deemed to restrict any rights that
you may have in and to your Input. Subject to the foregoing, Brain and its licensors exclusively own
all right, title and interest in and to the Services, including all
associated intellectual property rights.
(c)Rights in Input
and Output
Granted by You. By making any Input

in connection with operating and providing the Services and Output
to you and in connection with promoting or marketing the
Services. Brain may develop or derive data or insights from: (i) any Input or
Output; or (ii) your use of the Services, including without
limitation, any usage data or trends specific to the Services,
provided that, in each case, such data is de-identified of any “personal data” or “personal information” under applicable data protection laws (clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, “Service Information”).
(d)Your Responsibility for Input. You are solely responsible for all your Input. You represent and warrant that you own all your Input
or you have all rights that are necessary to grant us the license
rights in your Input
under these Terms. You also represent and warrant that neither your Input, nor your use and provision of your Input
to be made available through the Services, nor any use of your Input
by Brain on or through the Services will infringe, misappropriate or
violate a third party’s intellectual property rights, or rights of
publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law
or regulation.

limited,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to access and use the Services

not expressly granted to you under these Terms.

for further information.
DUE TO THE NON-DETERMINISTIC NATURE OF AI IN GENERAL, INCLUDING, LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS, AND THE PROBALISTIC NATURE OF MACHINE LEARNING (I) OUTPUTS
MAY NOT BE UNIQUE AND THE SERVICES MAY GENERATE THE SAME OR SIMILAR OUTPUT FOR ANOTHER USER OF THE SERVICES; (II) THE SERVICES MAY IN SOME SITUATIONS PRODUCE OUTPUT THAT IS
INACCURATE, INCORRECT, OFFENSIVE OR OTHERWISE UNDESIRABLE; (III) THE ACCURACY, QUALITY AND COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW OF THE
OUTPUT IS DEPENDENT UPON AND COMMENSURATE WITH THAT OF THE INPUT
PROVIDED AND YOUR COMPLIANCE WITH THESE TERMS; (IV) THE ACTIONS AND TRANSACTIONS MAY YIELD
INCORRECT RESULTS, BE INACCURATE
AND CONTAIN ERRORS.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW AND
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE SET OUT HEREIN, BRAIN
WILL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY TO YOU
OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGES RELATING TO OR
ARISING FROM INPUT, OUTPUT OR THEIR USE
AND ACTIONS OR TRANSACTIONS
AND THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
YOUR USE OF THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND BRAIN IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR HARM OF ANY KIND,
INCLUDING PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PHYSICAL INJURY, RESULTING FROM YOUR USE
THEREOF. YOU HEREBY AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT YOU HAVE A CLAIM ARISING
FROM ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, AS IT MAY RELATE TO AN ACTION OR TRASACTION PERFORMED
THROUGH THE SERVICES, YOU WILL SEEK RELIEF FROM SUCH THIRD
PARTY AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE ALL SUCH CLAIMS AGAINST US, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
(a)Disclaimer of Damages. NEITHER BRAIN NOR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR
DELIVERING THE SERVICES OR OUTPUT
WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST SAVINGS,
LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE
INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF
SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH
THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR OUTPUT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT BRAIN
OR ANY OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE
FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
(b)Liability Cap. IN NO EVENT WILL BRAIN’S
TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR
FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR OUTPUT
EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (I) THE SERVICES FEES YOU HAVE PAID TO BRAIN IN THE 12 MONTHS
PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY, OR (II) FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS ($500).
(c)Agreement. THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE
FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN BRAIN AND
YOU.
(b)Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 19(a) above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims
court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek
injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or
enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual
property rights.
(c)Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules
are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who
wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for
Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in
the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at
www.adr.org.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county where you
live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree
that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all
issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability
and scope of this arbitration agreement.
(d)Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be
governed by the AAA Rules, and we won’t seek to recover the
administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying,
unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in
arbitration, we’ll pay all of
our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you.
If you prevail in arbitration
you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to
the extent provided under applicable law.
(e)Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 19(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on
the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award
declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party
seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief
warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or
we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is,
injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of
prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public),
the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a
civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The
parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive
relief shall be stayed
pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in
arbitration.
(f)Class Action Waiver. YOU AND BRAIN AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER
ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR
CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the
arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your
claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a
representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is
found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute
Resolution section shall be null and void.
(g)Severability. With the exception of
any of the provisions in Section 19(f) of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver”), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that
any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts
of these Terms will still apply.[ 10]
20.General Terms.
(a)Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and
agreement between Brain and you regarding the Services and Output, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all
prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Brain and
you regarding the Services and Output. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by
an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision
will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other
provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. You
may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or
otherwise, without Brain’s
prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these
Terms, without such consent, will be null. Brain may freely assign or
transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing,
these Terms will bind and inure
to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted
assigns.
(b)Export Control. You represent and warrant that you are not named on or acting on behalf of any U.S. government denied-party list, and you
agree to comply fully with all relevant export control and sanctions laws and regulations of the
United States[ 11] (“Export Laws”) to ensure that neither the Services, any Outputs, nor any technical data related thereto is: (i) used, exported or
re-exported directly or indirectly in violation of Export Laws; or
(ii) used for any purposes prohibited by the Export Laws.
(c)Notices. Any notices or other communications provided by Brain under these
Terms, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be
given: (i) via email; or (ii) by posting to the Services. For notices made by e-mail, the date of
receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is
transmitted.
(d)Waiver of Rights. Brain’s
failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be
considered a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such
right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by
a duly authorized representative of Brain. Except as expressly set
forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its
remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other
remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

[ 1]Note to Brain: Insert name of AI Phone product if known.
[ 2]Note to Brain: Update with link to Natural’s privacy policy if a separate website
will be created. We have inserted the link to the Brain privacy policy
for now.
[ 3]Note to Brain:
Let’s discuss. Will the AI Phone offering only be made available in
Japan? We may need to have Japanese counsel review these terms,
particularly the Dispute Resolution section. We would be happy to
reach out to our local counsel colleagues to that end.
[ 4]Note to Brain: We have drafted the terms to require users to be a minimum of 18
years of age, in line with the previous Natural TOS. Let’s discuss the
considerations if you would like to lower this age (for example, to
13).
[ 5]Note to Brain: Please confirm email address.
[ 6]Note to Brain: Does the user pay Brain and then Brain pays the third party (e.g.
Amazon)? Or does the user pay the third party directly and Brain (or
its third party payment processor) facilitates the payment?
[ 7]Note to Brain: How will Brain charge users - e.g. will Brain charge a user’s Payment
Information on a Transaction by Transaction/Action by Action
basis?
[ 8]Note to Brain: Please confirm link.
[ 9]Note to Brain: Will linking to Third Party Services occur only in connection with
the Output, or are there instances where the Services link to Third
Party Services independent from Outputs?
[ 10]Note to Brain: The Governing Law and Dispute resolution sections may need Japanese
counsel review, especially if the AI Phone will only be offered in
Japan.
[ 11]Note to Brain: We can revise this section if the AI Phone will only be offered in
Japan.
[ 12]Note to Brain: Please confirm email address.
