During the Spring of 2017 (2% of the school student population), our FitKit H.S. Youth Financial Literacy Program became popular among students with 20% of the student population and growing now requesting the course be added to their schedules. Although this course is not a requirement in Pennsylvania, the small sampling demonstrated a solid 40% increase in financial literacy scores being recorded based upon our course pre and post assessments with higher average increases among HS Freshman, Sophomores and Juniors. Three separate trends have also been identified which if they hold true over larger samples, will be very interesting as we move forward. They are the following: 1) Course effectiveness may be gender neutral. 2) Freshman taking the course showed some of the greatest improvement. 3) Course may be the most effective for those who enter the course knowing the least; indicating that we may be best at reaching those most in need.

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Jersey.
21. Binding Arbitration
In the event of a dispute arising under or relating to these Terms of Service or the Content (each, a “Dispute”), such dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Any election to arbitrate, at any time, shall be final and binding on the other party. NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIM IN COURT OR TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL, EXCEPT EITHER PARTY MAY BRING ITS CLAIM IN ITS LOCAL SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF PERMITTED BY THAT SMALL CLAIMS COURT RULES AND IF WITHIN SUCH COURT’S JURISDICTION. ARBITRATION IS DIFFERENT FROM COURT, AND DISCOVERY AND APPEAL RIGHTS MAY ALSO BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. All disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator selected jointly by the parties, whose decision will be final, except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted by JAMS pursuant to its then current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those rules, or, where appropriate, pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. All applicable JAMS’ rules and procedures are available at the JAMS website www.jamsadr.com. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. Judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. If conducted in person, the arbitration shall take place in the United States county where you reside. The parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay a proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. The parties shall cooperate in good faith in the voluntary and informal exchange of all non-privileged documents and other information (including electronically stored information) relevant to the Dispute immediately after commencement of the arbitration. As set forth in Section 20 below, nothing in these Terms of Service will prevent us from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect our proprietary interests.
22. Class Action Waiver
Any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the dispute between DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (2) there shall be no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there shall be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
23. Equitable Relief
You acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened violation of our intellectual property rights and confidential and proprietary information by you, we will suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce these Terms of Service. We may, without waiving any other remedies under these Terms of Service, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim, equitable, provisional, or injunctive relief that is necessary to protect our rights and property pending the outcome of the arbitration referenced above. All claims or disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms of Service shall be heard exclusively by any of the federal or state courts of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New Jersey.

Because some states or jurisdictions, including the State of New Jersey, do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for negligence, consequential, incidental, or other damages, in such states or jurisdictions the DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation Parties’ liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation Parties harmless from and against any claims, actions, damages, costs, liabilities, penalties, fines, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to (a) your breach of this Agreement; (b) your access to, use, or misuse of the Site; (c) any claims brought against any of DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation Parties by a third party as a result of your acts or omissions; or (d) your violation of the rights of any third party, including without limitation, any intellectual property or privacy rights.
15. Compliance with Applicable Laws
The Site is based in the United States, and is intended to be used only by residents of the United States that are age 13 years or older. We make no claims concerning whether the Site or any Content, functions, or materials made available to you through the Site may be downloaded, viewed, or be appropriate for use outside of the United States. If you access the Site from outside of the United States, you do so at your own risk. Whether inside or outside of the United States, you are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with the laws of your specific jurisdiction.
16. Changes to These Terms of Service
These Terms of Service are effective as of the date stated above. We may change, suspend, restrict or terminate these Terms of Service and/or your access to all or any part of the Site at any time and for any reason without prior notice or liability to you.

These Terms of Service are effective unless and until terminated by either you or us. You may terminate these Terms of Service at any time by ceasing to use the Site or by notifying us in writing that you no longer wish to use the Site.
If in our sole judgment you fail, or we suspect that you have failed, to comply with any term or provision of these Terms of Service, we may also terminate this Agreement at any time without notice and you will remain liable for all amounts due up to and including the date of termination; and/or accordingly may deny you access to the Site (or any part thereof).
19. Entire Agreement
This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties concerning the subject matter, and supersedes all existing agreements and all other oral, written, or other communications between the parties concerning its subject matter. Any ambiguities in the interpretation of this Agreement shall not be construed against the drafting party.
20. Governing Law
These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Jersey.
21. Binding Arbitration
In the event of a dispute arising under or relating to these Terms of Service or the Content (each, a “Dispute”), such dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Any election to arbitrate, at any time, shall be final and binding on the other party. NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIM IN COURT OR TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL, EXCEPT EITHER PARTY MAY BRING ITS CLAIM IN ITS LOCAL SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF PERMITTED BY THAT SMALL CLAIMS COURT RULES AND IF WITHIN SUCH COURT’S JURISDICTION. ARBITRATION IS DIFFERENT FROM COURT, AND DISCOVERY AND APPEAL RIGHTS MAY ALSO BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. All disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator selected jointly by the parties, whose decision will be final, except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted by JAMS pursuant to its then current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those rules, or, where appropriate, pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. All applicable JAMS’ rules and procedures are available at the JAMS website www.jamsadr.com. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. Judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. If conducted in person, the arbitration shall take place in the United States county where you reside. The parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay a proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. The parties shall cooperate in good faith in the voluntary and informal exchange of all non-privileged documents and other information (including electronically stored information) relevant to the Dispute immediately after commencement of the arbitration. As set forth in Section 20 below, nothing in these Terms of Service will prevent us from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect our proprietary interests.
22. Class Action Waiver
Any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the dispute between DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (2) there shall be no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there shall be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
23. Equitable Relief
You acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened violation of our intellectual property rights and confidential and proprietary information by you, we will suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce these Terms of Service. We may, without waiving any other remedies under these Terms of Service, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim, equitable, provisional, or injunctive relief that is necessary to protect our rights and property pending the outcome of the arbitration referenced above. All claims or disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms of Service shall be heard exclusively by any of the federal or state courts of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New Jersey.
