TERMS OF USE
Date of Last Revision: November 1, 2014 Partsites, LLC (“Partsites”) is the owner and operator of Partsites.com and Partswebsite.com (collectively, the “Websites”). The Websites provide e-commerce storefront services (the “Services”) to automobile dealerships. The Websites include all pages under the Websites’ domain uniform resource locator (URL) and any related resources. Any access or use of the Websites constitutes acceptance of these Terms of Use and the terms and conditions contained herein (the “Agreement”), and constitutes a binding and enforceable agreement between you and Partsites. By using the Websites you acknowledge and agree that you have fully read and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement in its entirety, then you must immediately stop using the Websites. Once you click on “I Agree” on our Websites to accept Partsites’ standard Terms of Use during the registration process for our Services, this Agreement exists and is enforceable between you and Partsites. Dealers and Users: The term “Dealers” as contained herein, refers to all automobile dealerships that provide content to be displayed on our Websites and to whom Partsites provides Services. Dealers may be required to further agree to terms and conditions supplemental to this Agreement (the “Supplemental Agreement”.) This Agreement shall be incorporated by reference into any Supplemental Agreement. Where clauses between this Agreement and any Supplemental Agreement conflict, the Supplemental Agreement will be the controlling agreement. The term “Users” as contained herein, refers to all public consumers that access or use the Websites via the Internet to purchase automobile parts from a Dealer. Users have no capability of directly adding content to the Websites. The term “User” as contained herein, also refers to any party that gains access to the Websites via Partsites’ publicly available URLs and is a consumer of the information contained therein. Terms of Use Modifications: Partsites reserves the right to change or revise this Agreement at any time by posting a notification of changes on the registration page of the Websites. No notification of such revisions will be made known by any other mechanism. Partsites will notify you of revision dates by posting the last revised date preceding the first paragraph of this Agreement. The revised Agreement will take effect immediately after it has been posted on the Websites. Once you click on “I Agree” to accept this Agreement during the registration process, then an enforceable Agreement exists between you and Partsites. Your continued use of the Websites after the posting of a modification notification and clicking “I Agree” will signify your acceptance of any such changes or revisions to this Agreement. If this Agreement changes in any material way with respect to terms and conditions that apply to a Dealer, then the Dealer will be notified to re-register on our Website and click on the “I Agree” button that corresponds to acceptance of the modifications. Otherwise no such re-registration will be required. During registration Partsites logs the last revised date of this Agreement with the other information provided by a User or Dealer. Partsites uses this mechanism to determine the version of this Agreement under which a User or Dealer registered. This is done so that the correct and accurate version of this 2 Agreement, used during registration, can be produced should a dispute subsequently arise wherein a specific version of this Agreement becomes relevant. Dealer Content: You, as a Dealer, retain all ownership rights to content which you are a lawful owner or licensee of, and which you make available on the Websites via whatever mechanism that Partsites provides (the “Dealer Content”), excluding “Transmissions” as defined herein, and subject to any other rights granted to Partsites under this Agreement.

In the event of such termination, Partsites agrees to destroy or return to you any Dealer Content in its possession. Dealer represents, warrants, and guarantees that Dealer has the full right, ability, and authority to make the Dealer Content available on the Websites. Dealer further represents, warrants, and guarantees that by making available any Dealer Content on the Websites, Dealer is not violating any obligation owed by Dealer to any third party, including without limitation obligations of confidentiality, privacy, attribution or any intellectual property rights including, but not limited to, rights related to patent, trademark, copyright, or trade secrets.
