with the use of certain dedicated commercial motor vehicle equipment (“Equipment”) and related Services, including,
without limitation, pick-up, delivery, appliance-installation, and assembly services. PROVIDER represents and warrants
that PROVIDER has title to or is authorized to contract the Equipment and Services to FORWARDER. PROVIDER agrees to
provide sufficient Equipment and labor to perform all of the Services required of FORWARDER and its Customers in the
geographical region to be serviced by PROVIDER. In the event PROVIDER is unable to provide sufficient Equipment and

PROVIDER or contract with another service provider to ensure that the Customer’s needs are met. PROVIDER agrees to
be solely responsible for controlling the method, manner and means of accomplishing PROVIDER’s Services. PROVIDER or
its driver are responsible for determining the appropriate route for transportation. PROVIDER agrees that the terms and
conditions of this Agreement apply to all shipments handled by PROVIDER for FORWARDER and that the terms of this
Agreement control the relationship between the parties. Regardless of whether they are required by Applicable Law
(defined in Section 14 of this Agreement), in no event shall any provisions of PROVIDER’s tariff, terms and conditions,
service guide, bill of lading, or similar documentation apply to services provided under this Agreement.

personally, or by mail to the address shown at the end of this agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement,
FORWARDER shall have the right to holdback remaining payments due to PROVIDER until a final reconciliation is provided.
The ability of either party to terminate this Agreement shall in no way be interpreted as an at-will employment provision
and shall not otherwise affect PROVIDER’S status as an independent contractor under this Agreement.
3. COMPENSATION. It is expressly understood and agreed that PROVIDER’S compensation shall be as set forth in Appendix
A, and such compensation shall constitute the total compensation for everything furnished, provided, or done by
PROVIDER in connection with this Agreement, including driver’s services. PROVIDER represents and warrants that there
are no other applicable rates or charges except those established in this Agreement. The rates and charges in Appendix A
can be supplemented or revised only by written agreement signed by both parties. PROVIDER is entitled to compensation
only upon the full performance of any trip offered by FORWARDER and accepted by PROVIDER. Although FORWARDER
shall use reasonable efforts to make shipments available to PROVIDER for transportation during the term of this
2 Rev. October 2022

or amount of revenue to PROVIDER.

each settlement, FORWARDER will furnish to PROVIDER a statement detailing all debit and credit entries since the
preceding statement (“Settlement Statement”). The parties agree that all debit and credit entries detailed in each
Settlement Statement are conclusively presumed to be correct and proper if not disputed by PROVIDER within thirty (30)
days of FORWARDER’s issuance of the Settlement Statement. PROVIDER agrees that FORWARDER has the exclusive right
to handle all billing of freight charges to FORWARDER’s Customers for the Services provided herein, and, as such,
PROVIDER agrees to refrain from all collection efforts against FORWARDER’s Customers.

FORWARDER on behalf of PROVIDER, at the time of payment or settlement with PROVIDER, any liability or expense
FORWARDER has incurred or paid that under this Agreement or any addendum of this Agreement PROVIDER is obligated
to bear, including but not limited to those expenses set forth in Appendix A of this Agreement. FORWARDER may, at its
discretion, charge an administrative fee of up to 10% of the total claim for any property damage or cargo claim incurred
by PROVIDER in providing the contracted Services.

that PROVIDER receives an unsatisfactory, unfit, or equivalent safety rating, fails to maintain insurance required
hereunder, is notified that any of PROVIDER’s insurance required hereunder may become ineffective, or is otherwise
prohibited by Applicable Law from performing Services hereunder, PROVIDER shall notify FORWARDER immediately of
such fact and shall refrain from hauling any shipments on behalf of FORWARDER. PROVIDER shall comply with all
Applicable Law, including but not limited to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations and all other federal and state
laws or regulations specifically applicable to a motor carrier, its employees, drivers and personnel, related to the

FORWARDER that are reasonably related to transporting, loading and unloading, packing and unpacking, crating and
uncrating, debris removal, installation, and other Services relating to goods being transported and that do not conflict
with the terms of this Agreement. PROVIDER acknowledges that PROVIDER has a full and complete understanding and

the performance of any Services affected by the disqualification.

FORWARDER will pay PROVIDER a marketing fee set forth in Appendix A to this Agreement. Upon termination,
PROVIDER shall immediately remove and return the Decal at PROVIDER’s sole cost and expense and shall

(f)(4) LIABILITIES AND ENTITLEMENTS CONTINUE. If up to and including the date this Agreement is
terminated, one or more events occur that give rise, before or after the date of termination, to a liability or
entitlement of PROVIDER or FORWARDER under this Agreement, such liability or entitlement shall continue,
notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, until each such liability or entitlement is paid in full.
12. USE OF FORWARDER’S TRAILER(S) BY PROVIDER.
(a) PROVIDER’S RESPONSIBILITIES. In the event that PROVIDER utilizes a trailer or other equipment owned by or
leased to FORWARDER or its Customer, or otherwise provided to PROVIDER by FORWARDER or its Customer
(“Trailer(s)”) for the performance of the Services contemplated hereunder, PROVIDER shall be liable for any
damage to Trailers, destruction of Trailers, theft from Trailers, theft of any contents of Trailers, and for any claims
for bodily injury (including death) or property damage arising from or related to any accident involving Trailer(s)
regardless of whether such damage, injury, destruction, or theft is caused or occurs while the Trailer is attached
or unattached to any power unit operated by PROVIDER, except to the extent such damage, destruction, or theft
is directly and proximately caused by the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of FORWARDER or the
Customer. The initial burden of proving such damage, injury, destruction, or theft was directly and proximately
caused by the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of FORWARDER or the Customer in any proceeding
brought pursuant to this Agreement shall rest on PROVIDER. In the event that Applicable Law does not allow waiver
of liability to the extent contained in this provision, the parties expressly agree that FORWARDER’s and Customer’s
liability will be waived to the fullest extent allowed by Applicable Law. In no event will any such Trailer be used for
any purpose other than performing Services hereunder, and in no event will PROVIDER allow any third party or
any power unit not operating under PROVIDER’s for-hire motor carrier authority to operate any such Trailer, unless
expressly authorized to do so in writing, which written notice must be specific to the movement at issue. PROVIDER
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER FORWARDER NOR THE CUSTOMER MAKE ANY WARRANTIES,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE TRAILER INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR USE.
7 Rev. October 2022

(b) RETURN OF TRAILERS(S). PROVIDER agrees to return any Trailer in the same good condition as received by
PROVIDER, reasonable wear and tear excepted, along with any and all other equipment and property belonging to
FORWARDER or the Customer immediately upon FORWARDER’s request or upon termination of this Agreement.
If any Trailer is not in as good a condition as when it was delivered to PROVIDER (reasonable wear and tear
excepted), PROVIDER authorizes FORWARDER to restore such Trailer(s) to proper condition and to charge back to
PROVIDER the costs of these repairs or reconditioning. If PROVIDER for any reason fails to return any and all
Trailers, PROVIDER agrees to reimburse FORWARDER for all reasonable expense, including attorneys’ fees and
legal costs, incurred by FORWARDER in recovery of the Trailer(s). PROVIDER agrees that if it is necessary for
FORWARDER to enter upon PROVIDER’s private property or move PROVIDER’s private property in order to recover
any Trailer(s), PROVIDER grants FORWARDER permission to do so. PROVIDER agrees to defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless FORWARDER (and FORWARDER’s agents) from any form of liability whatsoever in connection with
the repossession
13. PROVIDER NOT EMPLOYEE OF FORWARDER.
(a) It is expressly understood and agreed that PROVIDER is an independent contractor for the Equipment and
Services provided pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement is between two independent businesses that are
separately owned and operated. PROVIDER agrees to defend, indemnify and hold FORWARDER harmless for all
reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs FORWARDER incurs in defending against any claims, suits, actions, or
administrative proceedings brought by PROVIDER or any of PROVIDER’s workers alleging that PROVIDER or any
of PROVIDER’s workers is an employee of FORWARDER, but which ultimately, upon completion of all appeals or
the running of all applicable appeal periods, fail to result in any final judicial or administrative decision holding
the allegation to be true.
(b) PROVIDER agrees to provide necessary documentation and apply for certification of its independent
contractor status where mandated by Applicable Law. Subject only to Applicable Law and safety considerations,
PROVIDER hereby assumes full control and responsibility for the selection, training, hiring, setting of grooming and
dress standards, disciplining, discharging, setting of hours, meal and rest breaks; wages and salaries, providing for
unemployment insurance, state and federal taxes, fringe benefits, workers’ compensation, adjustment of
grievances, all acts and omissions, and all other matters relating to or arising out of PROVIDER’S employment or
use of drivers and laborers, and any and all other employees or agents of PROVIDER that PROVIDER may provide
or use to perform any aspect of this Agreement. PROVIDER shall be solely responsible for complying with all
Applicable Law governing the terms and conditions of employment of PROVIDER’S employees or applicants for
employment, including, without limitation, compliance with the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act; verification of
immigration and naturalization status; proof of proper taxpayer identification number; proof of highway use tax
being currently paid when the PROVIDER purchases its license plates; proof of payment of income; unemployment;
Medicare and other state and federal payroll taxes; and, other required withholdings for PROVIDER’S employees.
If PROVIDER obtains any of the Equipment from a third party that is not exempt from 49 C.F.R. Part 376, PROVIDER
will ensure that such third party receives all of the rights and benefits due under 49 C.F.R. Part 376, and, upon
FORWARDER’s request, PROVIDER will provide FORWARDER with a copy of any agreement PROVIDER enters into
for the purpose of satisfying this obligation.
(c) PROVIDER is free to choose the form in which to operate PROVIDER’s business. PROVIDER agrees to file all
tax forms and returns that PROVIDER may be required by law to file, on account of PROVIDER’s workers used in
the performance of this Agreement, and to pay when due all taxes and contributions reported in the forms and
returns. In that regard, PROVIDER knows: (i) of PROVIDER’s responsibilities to pay estimated social security taxes
and state and federal income taxes with respect to remuneration received from FORWARDER; (ii) that the social
security tax PROVIDER must pay is higher than the social security tax an individual would pay if he or she were an
employee; and (iii) that the service provided by PROVIDER to FORWARDER under this Agreement is not work
covered by the unemployment compensation laws of any State, including Georgia; provided, however, that should
PROVIDER employ or use drivers, helpers, or other workers to fulfill PROVIDER’s obligations under this Agreement,
and the drivers, helpers, or other workers are covered by the unemployment laws of any State, including Georgia,
PROVIDER is solely responsible for providing unemployment insurance for the drivers, helpers, or other workers.
8 Rev. October 2022
(d) PROVIDER’S performance of all responsibilities set forth in this Section 13 shall be considered proof of its
status as an independent contractor in fact. Proof of such control and responsibility shall be submitted by
PROVIDER to FORWARDER as required by FORWARDER and may include, but not be limited to, proof of highway
use tax being currently paid, proof of income tax being currently paid (Federal Form 941), and proof of payment
of payroll tax for PROVIDER’S drivers. As required by law, FORWARDER agrees to file information tax returns (Form
1099) on behalf of PROVIDER if PROVIDER is paid more than the statutory amount in compensation during a
calendar year.
14. BREACH. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated
immediately, at any time, by either party upon written notice to the other party in the event the other party; (i) commits
– or attempts, conspires, or threatens to commit – a felony or intentional tort; (ii) violates any applicable federal, state,
local, and foreign authorities, including but not limited to DOT, state, provincial, or local highway safety, vehicle inspection,
vehicle maintenance, traffic, road, truck size-and-weight, hazardous materials transportation, cargo security, or other laws
and regulations ("Applicable Law"); (iii) materially breaches this Agreement; or (iv) loses its operating authority or
otherwise becomes disqualified to perform its obligations under this Agreement. In the event of a breach, the non-
breaching party may elect to terminate the Agreement by giving immediate oral, followed by written, notice of
termination to the offending party.
15. INDEMNIFICATION. PROVIDER shall fully defend, indemnify, and hold harmless FORWARDER, its Customers, and
each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates and subsidiaries from and against, and shall pay and
reimburse, any and all direct or indirect liabilities, claims, losses, fines, penalties, injuries, demands, judgments, costs,
expenses (including cost of defense, settlement, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs expenses), damages and
other obligations arising out of or in any way related to the performance or breach of this Agreement, or the ownership,
maintenance, use, or operation of the Equipment, by PROVIDER, its employees, agents, or independent contractors
working for PROVIDER, including, but not limited to, claims for or related to personal injury (including death) and
property damage; provided, however, that PROVIDER’s indemnification and hold harmless obligations under this
Section will not apply to the prorated extent that any claim is directly and proximately caused by the negligence or other
wrongful conduct of the party to be defended, indemnified or held harmless. PROVIDER hereby expressly waives any
exclusive remedy defense, including, but not limited to, those available under any workers’ compensation or other
occupational accident statutory regime, to the extent necessary to effectuate PROVIDER’s obligations under this
provision. PROVIDER authorizes FORWARDER to deduct or otherwise recover any amounts due to Broker under this
section.
16. CARGO LIABILITY.
(a) PROVIDER agrees to have the sole and exclusive care, custody and control of the cargo tendered
hereunder from the time it is tendered to PROVIDER for transportation until delivery to the consignee
accompanied by the appropriate receipts. PROVIDER shall notify FORWARDER immediately in the event any such
cargo is lost (including stolen), damaged or destroyed, or in the event PROVIDER becomes aware that applicable
delivery schedules will not be met.
(b) PROVIDER assumes the liability of a motor carrier for loss, damage or delay to any and all goods tendered
to PROVIDER pursuant to this Agreement from the time the shipment is tendered to PROVIDER until delivery in
accordance with the provisions of the Carmack Amendment as currently codified at 49 U.S.C. § 14706. PROVIDER
shall be liable for the full invoice value of the cargo lost, damaged, delayed, or destroyed, as well as any additional
costs or fees imposed upon FORWARDER by the cargo claimant, except that PROVIDER’s full value liability shall
not exceed $50,000 per claim. No other limitation of liability shall apply unless specifically agreed to in writing by
FORWARDER prior to PROVIDER’s receipt of the specific shipments to which such limitation applies, and
FORWARDER’s agreement to a limitation shall not be construed as a waiver of full-value liability with respect to
any other goods tendered to PROVIDER. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, PROVIDER’s cargo
liability limit shall NOT apply to the extent the loss, damage, delay, or destruction of cargo arises out of or relate
to PROVIDER’s, including its employees’, contractors’, officers,’ and/or agents’, gross negligence or willful
9 Rev. October 2022
misconduct (including but not limited to intentional torts). The liability of PROVIDER for any claim for cargo loss,
damage or delay shall not be limited by any exclusion in PROVIDER’S cargo insurance, or by the limit of such
insurance.
(c) PROVIDER waives any Applicable Law regarding processing of claims and handling of salvage, including,
but not limited to, the provisions of 49 C.F.R. Part 370. PROVIDER shall pay to FORWARDER, or allow FORWARDER
to deduct from the amount FORWARDER owes PROVIDER, all amounts owed by PROVIDER pursuant to this
Section. Payments by PROVIDER to FORWARDER or its Customer, or any deductions from PROVIDER’s
compensation, pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be made within 30 days following written notice
to PROVIDER of FORWARDER’s or Customer’s undisputed claim and supporting documentation. PROVIDER shall
fully assist FORWARDER in investigating any claim for cargo loss, damage, delay, or destruction. PROVIDER waives
any right to salvage goods subject to this provision, as well as any right to claim an offset for the value of salvage.
17. SUBCONTRACT PROHIBITION. PROVIDER specifically agrees that all freight tendered to it by FORWARDER shall be
transported on equipment operated only under the for-hire motor carrier authority of PROVIDER, and that PROVIDER
agrees that under no circumstances shall it broker, subcontract, or in any other form arrange for the freight to be
transported or the Services to be provided by a third party (other than independent contractors operating Equipment
under PROVIDER’s for-hire carrier authority), including but not limited to any other motor carrier, railroad, or other
transportation-related company, without the prior written consent of FORWARDER. In the event that PROVIDER breaches
this Section, PROVIDER shall remain directly liable as if PROVIDER transported such freight under its own authority in
accordance with this provision and shall indemnify FORWARDER and the Customer(s) for all damages, expenses, losses,
costs, fees, and charges of any type whatsoever, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs,
arising out of or in any way related to the use of any subcontractor in violation of this provision regardless of whether
arising from the conduct or omissions of PROVIDER, the subcontractor, or any other third party. If PROVIDER in any
manner sub-contracts, brokers, or otherwise arranges for freight to be transported by a third party, in addition to any
other rights and remedies available to FORWARDER, FORWARDER may, in its sole discretion, pay the underlying carrier
directly, which payment will relieve FORWARDER of any and all payment obligations to PROVIDER with respect to such
load.
18. WAIVER OF LIEN AND CUSTOMER BILLING. PROVIDER hereby expressly waives its right to any lien on any goods
transported pursuant to this Agreement under any applicable law. PROVIDER agrees that FORWARDER has the exclusive
right to handle all billing of freight charges to the Customer for the Services provided by PROVIDER, and, as such, PROVIDER
agrees to refrain from all collection efforts against FORWARDER’s Customer.
19. LOADING AND UNLOADING. In the event the shipper or consignee does not assume loading and/or unloading
responsibilities, PROVIDER shall be responsible for the loading and/or unloading of property transported on behalf of
FORWARDER at PROVIDER’S expense. PROVIDER shall not be granted access to FORWARDER’S terminal(s) or its Customers
for unloading purposes except for during normal business hours. PROVIDER will comply with handling instructions
provided by FORWARDER’s Customer (including such instructions from such that may be passed through to PROVIDER by
FORWARDER). Unless a shipment is loaded and sealed prior to arrival of PROVIDER personnel, the manner of loading and
securing freight upon Equipment shall be the sole responsibility of PROVIDER. With respect to unsealed loads loaded prior
to PROVIDER’s arrival, PROVIDER shall be obligated to inspect such loading prior to departing to ensure freight is properly
secured and in good condition. PROVIDER represents that each driver utilized by it shall be competent to manage the
loading and transportation of the goods subject to this Agreement.
20. CONFIDENTIALITY AND TRADE SECRETS.
(a) PROVIDER hereby recognizes and acknowledges that any list of FORWARDER’s Customers, including non-
public information pertaining to such Customers, as it may exist now or from time to time, is a valuable, special
and unique asset of the business of FORWARDER. PROVIDER agrees, during and after the term of this Agreement,
not to disclose the list of FORWARDER’s Customers or any part, including any Customer’s non-public information,
thereof to any person, firm, corporation, association, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever
without FORWARDER’S prior written consent. PROVIDER agrees to preserve as “Confidential Matters”, all trade
10 Rev. October 2022
secrets, knowhow and information relating to FORWARDER’S business, forms, processes, developments, sales and
promotional systems, prices and operations, which information may be obtained from tariffs, contracts, freight
bills, letters, reports, disclosures, reproductions, books, records, or other contractors, and other sources of any
kind resulting from this Agreement. PROVIDER agrees to regard such Confidential Matters as the sole property of
FORWARDER, and shall not publish, disclose or disseminate the same to others without the written consent of
FORWARDER. During the performance of this Agreement or after the termination or expiration of this Agreement,
neither Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement to a third party without the written consent of the other
Party except (1) as required by law or regulation; (2) where disclosure is made to its accountants, tax advisors,
attorneys, or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate company; or (3) to facilitate rating or auditing of transportation
charges by an authorized agent and such agent agrees to keep the terms of the Agreement confidential. In the
event of any breach or threatened breach by PROVIDER of the provisions of this paragraph, FORWARDER shall be
entitled to an injunction, restraining PROVIDER from disclosing, in whole or in part, the list of FORWARDER’S
customers, and all other Confidential Matters. Nothing hereunder shall be construed as prohibiting FORWARDER
from pursuing any remedies available to FORWARDER at law or in equity for such breach, including the recovery
of monetary damages from PROVIDER.
(b) To the extent the Confidential Matters constitute “trade secrets” under 18 U.S.C. § 1839(3), FORWARDER
provides the following notice to PROVIDER pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)(3): An individual shall not be held
criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is
made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney,
solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or is made in a complaint or other
document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. An individual who files a lawsuit
for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the
individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document
containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.
21. BENEFIT AND ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this
Agreement and their respective successors and supersedes all other agreements and all tariffs, rates, classifications and
schedules published, filed or otherwise maintained by PROVIDER. PROVIDER may not assign or subcontract all or a portion
of its obligations to another party without the prior written consent of FORWARDER.
22. NOTICE. All notices shall be in writing (unless permitted elsewhere in this Agreement to be oral) and will be deemed
to have been fully given: (i) upon delivery if emailed to the email address shown at the end of this Agreement (or to the
party’s other updated email address); (ii) upon delivery if delivered personally, by facsimile machine to the addressed or
fax number shown at the end of this Agreement, or other electronic means; (iii) on the next day after being deposited

The parties agree to be under a continuing duty to provide written notice to each other regarding changes to any of the
contact information appearing in the signature block after the main text of this Agreement.
23. WAIVER. PROVIDER and FORWARDER expressly waive any and all rights and remedies allowed under 49 U.S.C. § 14101
to the extent that such rights and remedies conflict with this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of the
Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a
continuing waiver. The failure or refusal of either party to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this
Agreement, or to exercise any right in any one or more instances or circumstances shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment of such provision or right, nor shall such a failure or refusal be deemed a customary practice contrary to
such provision or right. No waiver shall be deemed effective or binding upon the PROVIDER unless executed in writing by
the party making the waiver. The rights and remedies of FORWARDER under this Agreement or under Applicable Law are
cumulative, and the exercise of any of them will not be exclusive of any other right or remedy provided by this Agreement
or allowed under Applicable Law.
24. SEVERABILITY. If any Agreement or its appendices is deemed invalid for any reason whatsoever, the Agreement shall
be void only as to such provision, and this Agreement shall remain otherwise binding between the parties. Any provision
voided by the operation of the foregoing shall be replaced with provisions, which shall be as close as the parties’ original
intent as permitted under applicable law.
25. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTIONS.
(a) THIS AGREEMENT, AS WELL AS ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASPECT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES, IS TO BE
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES AND OF THE STATE OF INDIANA, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE
CHOICE-OF-LAW RULES OF INDIANA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. EXCEPT FOR CLAIMS OR DISPUTES COVERED

COUNTY, INDIANA. THE PARTIES CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THESE COURTS.
(b) PROVIDER AND PROVIDER’S WORKERS WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO INITIATE, JOIN (I.E., OPT IN TO), REMAIN

CONSOLIDATED ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION BROUGHT AGAINST FORWARDER, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO SUCH ACTIONS BROUGHT UNDER STATE OR FEDERAL LAW AND THOSE ARISING UNDER THE FAIR
LABOR STANDARDS ACT.
26. BROKER’S RECORDS. PROVIDER hereby waives its right to obtain copies of FORWARDER’s records as provided for under
49 C.F.R. Part 371. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that PROVIDER obtains records set forth in 49 C.F.R. §
371.3 by any means whatsoever, PROVIDER agrees to refrain from utilizing such records in negotiating for the provision of
services with any third party, including FORWARDER’s Customers. PROVIDER further agrees and understands that all such
records comprise FORWARDER’s confidential information and trade secrets. Nothing in this section is intended to relieve
PROVIDER of any other obligations imposed upon it by this Agreement, or to limit any rights of Broker to enforce such
obligations.

agreement between FORWARDER and PROVIDER pertaining to the subject matter contained herein and fully replaces and
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings. No supplement,

vendor. Otherwise, PROVIDER’s failure to object to the change constitutes PROVIDER’s consent to the change effective as

with an updated Certificate of Insurance or coverage overview reflecting the change and, upon request, a copy of the
insurance policy. If PROVIDER notifies FORWARDER of PROVIDER’s objection within that period set forth in the notice and

Appendix C
ESCROW
As authorized by Section 7 of this Agreement, FORWARDER shall establish and administer an Escrow Fund, which
PROVIDER and FORWARDER agree shall be governed by the following terms and conditions:
1. PRINCIPAL. The amount of principal to be held in the Escrow Fund shall be $5,000.00 per unit of Equipment. If, during
the term of this Agreement, PROVIDER adds additional units of Equipment, the principal shall be increased at such time
by $5,000.00 per added unit of Equipment. This amount is to be deducted from PROVIDER’S compensation at a rate of
$150.00 per week per unit of Equipment, beginning the first week of services provided by PROVIDER under the Agreement.
If, at any time, the principal amount in escrow falls below $5,000.00 per unit of Equipment, PROVIDER authorizes
FORWARDER to deduct from PROVIDER’S compensation an amount of $150.00 per week.
2. SPECIFIC ITEMS TO WHICH ESCROW FUND MAY BE APPLIED. FORWARDER shall hold the Escrow Fund for the purpose
of ensuring compliance with the provisions of the Agreement. The specific items to which the Escrow Fund shall apply are
all advances, expenses, taxes, fees, fines, penalties, damages, losses, or other amounts paid, owed, or incurred by
FORWARDER, or owed by PROVIDER to a third party under a purchase or rental contract, that are PROVIDER’S
responsibility under the Agreement – specifically, the chargeback and deduction items set forth in Appendix A and other
appendices (hereafter “Escrow Items”).
3. ACCOUNTINGS. While the Escrow Fund is under FORWARDER’S control, FORWARDER shall provide an accounting to
PROVIDER, upon request, of all transactions involving such funds by clearly indicating on individual settlement sheets the
amount and description of any deduction or addition made to the Escrow Fund.
4. FINAL SETTLEMENT. To have any remaining balance in the Escrow Fund returned following termination of the
Agreement, PROVIDER must first comply with all of the specific obligations set forth in the Agreement, and make payments
to FORWARDER for all Escrow Items. At the time of the return of any remaining balance in the Escrow Fund, FORWARDER
may deduct monies for all Escrow Items.
5. RETURN OF ESCROW BALANCE.
(a) If, during the term of this Agreement, PROVIDER reduces the total number of units of Equipment, the
required principal shall remain the same except as permitted in this Section 5(a). FORWARDER may, in its
discretion, upon written request from PROVIDER, return the balance (if any) of the principal amount attributed to
each such removed unit of Equipment if the following are satisfied with respect to each such removed unit: (i) at
least 60 days have passed since PROVIDER used the removed unit to provide Services and generate revenue
pursuant to the Agreement; and (ii) there are no outstanding or unsatisfied claims remaining with respect to the
removed unit and its corresponding principal amount. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any removed unit
has zero balance in its corresponding principal amount and unsatisfied claims, FORWARDER is authorized to
deduct from the then-current total principal balance, for all units of Equipment, to satisfy such amounts.
(b) In no event shall the Escrow Fund be returned to PROVIDER until after all pending claims have been
resolved. If after 60 days from the date this Agreement is terminated, PROVIDER has no outstanding liabilities to
FORWARDER or any Customers, the remaining balance in the Escrow Fund shall be returned to PROVIDER.
FORWARDER’S use, or post-termination return to PROVIDER, of any balance in the Escrow Fund shall not
constitute a waiver of FORWARDER’S right to recover, through arbitration or other available legal means, any
additional amounts PROVIDER owes, or comes to owe, FORWARDER under this Agreement.

Arbitration Agreement
RAS Logistics, LLC (“RAS”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of Indiana, and the undersigned
independent contractor and its authorized representative (both in its capacity as an authorized representative and in
his or her individual capacity) (“Provider”), hereby enter into this Arbitration Agreement (“Arbitration Agreement”).
Important Information Regarding This Arbitration Agreement
This Arbitration Agreement is optional and not a condition of entering into a business relationship with RAS.
If Provider elects to sign this Arbitration Agreement, Provider will be required to arbitrate any claim (except
as otherwise noted) that Provider may have against RAS unless Provider elects to revoke its assent to the
Arbitration Agreement within 30 days of signing pursuant to Section 9. This Arbitration Agreement will pre-
clude Provider from bringing any class, collective, consolidated, or non-Private Attorney General Act repre-
sentative action against RAS. It also precludes Provider from participating in or recovering relief under any
current or future class, collective, consolidated, or non-Private Attorney General Act representative action
brought against RAS by someone else. By signing this Agreement, Provider also waives Provider’s right to
a jury trial. Whether to agree to arbitration is an important business decision. It is Provider’s decision to
make, and Provider should not rely solely upon the information provided herein, as it is not intended to
contain a complete explanation of the consequences of arbitration. Provider should take reasonable steps
to conduct further research and to consult with others—including Provider’s attorney—regarding the con-
sequences of Provider’s decision, just as Provider would when making any other important business deci-
sion. Provider has the right to unilaterally revoke its assent to this Arbitration Agreement within 30 days of
signing it (see Section 9).
1. Disputes Covered by this Arbitration Agreement
Except as provided in Section 2, any claim, controversy, or dispute between the Parties, or arising out of or relating to
the relationship between the Parties (including any request for preliminary or other injunctive relief), whether arising
before or after this Arbitration Agreement is signed (together, “Claims”) must be submitted to final and binding arbitration
to be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). For the avoidance of doubt, Claims include but are
not limited to claims (i) arising out of or relating to any acts, omissions, conditions, or events taking place during the
term of this Arbitration Agreement; (ii) arising out of or relating to any Dedicated Contract Carrier Agreement or other
written contract between the Parties; (iii) of breach of contract, tort, fraud, and any cause of action arising under the
statutes, regulations, or common law of any governmental authority, whether local, state, federal, or foreign, including
but not limited to claims arising under the Fair Labor Standards Act or the Federal Leasing Regulations; and (iv) as-
serted against a Party or a Party’s customer by workers engaged by the other Party, regardless of how those workers
are classified and what type of claims they assert. The arbitration must be conducted in accordance with the procedure
described in this Arbitration Agreement and the Commercial Arbitration Rules (and related arbitration rules governing
requests for preliminary or other injunctive relief) of the AAA (www.adr.org). If the AAA is unable to serve as the admin-
istrator, JAMS (www.jamsadr.com) shall serve as the administrator; in the event JAMS is unable to serve as the admin-
istrator, the Parties shall confer in good faith to mutually select an administrator. The Parties agree this Arbitration
Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) (“FAA”) and is not exempt from the FAA. If
the FAA is held not to apply, this Arbitration Agreement will be governed by the arbitration laws of the State of Indiana.
2. Claims Not Covered by this Arbitration Agreement
The arbitration clause of Section 1 shall not apply to the following claims:
2.1. Claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court that either Party elects to file in such a court, as long as
the matter remains in such court (or, solely for appealing the judgment of the small claims court and not for
removing the original trial of the Claim therefrom, in such other court as the applicable law may designate for
such appeals) and advances only an individual (non-class, non-collective, non-consolidated, and non-repre-
sentative) Claim.
2.2. Claims for workers compensation, state disability insurance, or unemployment insurance benefits.
RAS Logistics, LLC. Arbitration Agreement – Page 1 Rev. 09/20/2022

2.3. Claims brought before an administrative agency if applicable law permits access to such an agency notwith-
standing the existence of an agreement to arbitrate. Such administrative claims include without limitation
claims or charges brought before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (www.eeoc.gov), the U.S.
Department of Labor (www.dol.gov), the National Labor Relations Board (www.nlrb.gov), and the Office of
Federal Contract Compliance Programs (www.dol.gov/esa/ofccp). Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall
be deemed to excuse a Party from bringing an administrative claim before any agency in order to fulfill the
Party's obligation to exhaust administrative remedies before making a claim in arbitration.
2.4. Claims that may not be the subject of a mandatory arbitration agreement as provided by Section 8116 of the
Department of Defense ("DOD") Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Pub. L. 111-118), Section 8102 of
the DOD Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Pub. L. 112-10, Division A), and their implementing regula-
tions, or any other DOD appropriations act addressing the arbitrability of such claims.
2.5. Claims brought under the California Private Attorney General Act, Cal. Lab. Code § 2698, et seq. (“PAGA”),
pursuant to which Provider seeks to recover civil penalties (a portion of which would be allocated to the
California Labor and Workforce Development Agency) on behalf of anyone who has provided services to
RAS other than Provider. For the avoidance of doubt, private claims pursuant to which Proivder seeks claim-
ant-specific relief (e.g. statutory damages), including claims alleging violations of the California Labor Code
that may be the predicate of a PAGA claim for civil penalties, are covered by this Arbitration Agreement unless
applicable law requires that they be adjudicated before an administrative agency notwithstanding the exist-
ence of an agreement to arbitrate.
2.6. Statutory claims for public injunctive relief.
2.7. Any other claim for which it is unlawful for the parties to agree, on a predispute basis, that the claim must be
arbitrated pursuant to the terms of this Arbitration Agreement.
3. Issues Delegated to an Arbitrator
An arbitrator shall decide all issues arising out of or relating to the interpretation or application of this Arbitration Agree-
ment, including the enforceability, revocability or validity of this Arbitration Agreement or any portion of it, except the
issue of the availability of class, collective, consolidated, or representative arbitration of claims, which issue shall be
reserved.
4. This Arbitration Agreement Waives Class, Collective, Consolidated, And Representative Actions
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES

AGREE THAT NO CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION OF CLAIMS
SHALL BE ALLOWED AND THAT THE ARBITRATOR IS NOT EMPOWERED TO CERTIFY, CONDUCT, OR AWARD
RELIEF IN ANY SUCH ARBITRATION. IF A COURT OR ARBITRATOR NEVERTHELESS ALLOWS OR REQUIRES
A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT
SUCH A DETERMINATION IS IMMEDIATELY APPEALABLE TO THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS SERVING
THE CITY OF ELKHART, IN THE STATE OF INDIANA, AS CONTRARY TO THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES IN
ENTERING INTO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND THAT ALL ARBITRAL PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING
DISCOVERY, SHALL BE STAYED PENDING APPEAL. IN THE EVENT THE DETERMINATION IS NOT REVERSED
ON APPEAL, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID IN ITS
ENTIRETY WITH RESPECT TO THE PENDING DISPUTE, ANY ARBITRATION AWARD UNDER IT WITH RESPECT
TO THE PENDING DISPUTE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID, AND ANY SUCH DISPUTE BETWEEN THE PARTIES
SHALL BE RESOLVED BY COURT ACTION, NOT ARBITRATION, IN THE FOREGOING STATE OR FEDERAL
COURTS. IF AT ANY POINT THIS PROVISION IS DETERMINED TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THE PARTIES AGREE
THAT THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT BE SEVERABLE, UNLESS IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE ARBITRATION
WILL STILL PROCEED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY.
5. Filing of Arbitration Demand
Any demand for arbitration shall be filed pursuant to the Administrator’s directions and delivered by hand, by First Class
U.S. Mail, or by overnight delivery service to the other Party at the address such Party last provided written notice of to
the other Party. The demand shall be filed and served within the time allowed by the shortest statute of limitations

applicable to at least one claim set forth in the demand. The Arbitrator shall resolve all disputes regarding the timeliness
or propriety of the demand for arbitration. At least 60 days before filing a demand for arbitration, the Party with a Claim
shall provide written notice to the other Party clearly identifying the claimant, the factual support for the Claims, and the
relief to be requested. In addition to any requirements herein, any demand for arbitration must include an express
authorization by the claimant to the filing of the demand on claimant’s behalf.
6. Arbitration Procedure
The Arbitrator shall be selected by agreement of the Parties. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the Arbitrator shall be
an attorney licensed to practice in the location where the arbitration proceeding will be conducted or a retired federal
or state judicial officer who presided in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted. If the Parties cannot
agree to an Arbitrator, the Arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the Administrator’s rules. The location of the arbitration
shall be in a city agreed to by the Parties or, absent such agreement: (a) the City of Elkhart, in the State of Indiana; (b)
if Provider is not headquartered or does not reside within 100 miles of the location designated in Section 6(a), the
county of RAS’s terminal from which Provider was dispatched; or (c) if Provider is not headquartered or does not reside
within 100 miles of RAS’s terminal, the county in which Provider is headquartered or resides. In the arbitration, the
Parties shall have the right to conduct adequate civil discovery, bring dispositive motions, and present witnesses and
evidence as needed to present their cases and defenses, and any disputes in this regard shall be resolved by the
Arbitrator.
7. Arbitration Expenses and Attorneys’ Fees
Each Party shall pay its own arbitration filing fees and an equal share of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and
the cost of the arbitration site, provided that if Provider operates no more than one vehicle in its overall transportation
business, RAS shall pay the full fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and the full cost of the arbitration site as well as
(a) the full arbitration filing fee, if RAS is the claimant, or (b) the portion of the arbitration filing fee that exceeds the filing
fee then in effect for civil actions in the United States District Court for the district that includes the City of Elkhart, in
the State of Indiana, if Provider is the claimant. In all other respects, except to the extent otherwise determined by law,
as construed and applied by the Arbitrator, the Parties shall be responsible for their own respective arbitration expenses,
including attorneys’ fees, subject, in the case of arbitration expenses of Provider, to any attorneys’ fees or related
remedies to which the Arbitrator finds Provider to be entitled under applicable law. Both Parties agree to be fully and
finally bound by the arbitration award, and, where allowed by law, a judgment may be entered on the award in any court
having jurisdiction thereof.
8. Post-Arbitration Procedure
Within 30 days of the close of the arbitration hearing (which period may be extended by stipulation of the Parties), any
Party shall have the right to prepare, serve on the other Party, and file with the Arbitrator a post-arbitration brief. Except
as provided in the waiver provision of Section 4 of this Arbitration Agreement, the Arbitrator may award any Party any
remedy to which that Party is entitled under applicable law and which would otherwise be available in a court of law for
the claims presented to and decided by the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator shall issue a decision or award in writing, stating
the essential findings of fact and conclusions of law. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter
a judgment upon the award made pursuant to the arbitration.
9. Provider’s Right to Revoke this Arbitration Agreement
Arbitration is not a mandatory condition of Provider’s relationship with RAS. If Provider does not want to be subject to
this Arbitration Agreement, not only may Provider elect not to sign this Arbitration Agreement in the first place, but
Provider may subsequently revoke its assent to this Arbitration Agreement by notifying RAS in writing of such desire
within thirty (30) days of the date this Arbitration Agreement is signed by Provider, which writing must be delivered either
(1) by email to CarrierRelations@raslogistics.com, stating Provider’s name and intent to revoke this Arbitration Agree-
ment or (2) by sending a letter by U.S. Mail, or by any nationally recognized delivery service (FedEx, etc.), or by hand
delivery to 2113 Aeroplex Dr., Elkhart, IN 46514. Provider’s revocation will be effective as of the date RAS receives
such notice. The original or a copy of Provider’s notice shall be maintained by RAS. SUCH UNILATERAL ELECTION
BY PROVIDER SHALL NOT RESULT IN TERMINATION OF ANY OTHER AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
OR ANY FORM OF PENALTY, RETALIATION, OR DISADVANTAGING OF PROVIDER BY RAS. If Provider is or was
party to an earlier agreement to arbitrate disputes with RAS at the time it enters into this Arbitration Agreement and

then later revokes its assent to this Arbitration Agreement pursuant to this Section 9, the earlier arbitration agreement
will remain in full force and effect consistent with its terms.
10. Term and Termination
This Arbitration Agreement shall begin at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on the latest date appearing the Signature Block
below (“Effective Date”) and, except as provided in Section 9 above, end upon termination by written agreement of both
Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, this Arbitration Agreement shall continue in effect beyond its termina-
tion date with respect to any disputes covered under Section 1 of this Agreement. If Provider revokes its assent to this
Arbitration Agreement and at the time of its receipt of this Arbitration Agreement Provider was bound by an existing
agreement to arbitrate any Claims, that existing arbitration agreement will re-main in full force and effect.
11. Severability and Waiver
IF THE WAIVER PROVISION OF SECTION 4 OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS DECLARED INVALID BY

ANY COURT OR ARBITRATOR FOR ANY REASON, THE PARTIES INTEND THAT THIS ENTIRE ARBITRATION
AGREEMENT BE VOID. If any other provision (including any sentence or part of a sentence) of this Arbitration Agree-
ment is declared invalid by any court (overseeing a claim pursuant to Section 2) or Arbitrator for any reason, this
Arbitration Agreement shall be void only as to the provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall remain otherwise
binding between the Parties. Any provision voided by operation of the foregoing shall be replaced with provisions that
shall be as close to the Parties’ original intent as permitted under applicable law. No waiver of any of the provisions of
this Arbitration Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver
constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be deemed effective or binding upon either Party unless executed in
writing by the Party making the waiver. The failure or refusal of either Party to insist upon the strict performance of any
provision of this Arbitration Agreement or to exercise any right in any one or more instances or circumstances shall not
be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the provision or right, nor shall the failure or refusal be deemed a cus-
tomary practice contrary to the provision or right. The rights and remedies of either Party under this Arbitration Agree-
ment or under applicable law shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any of them shall not be exclusive of any other
right or remedy provided allowed under applicable law.
12. Benefit and Assignment
This Arbitration Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties to this Arbitration Agreement
and their respective successors. Neither Party shall be authorized to assign or subcontract this Arbitration Agreement
or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party.
13. Confidentiality and Nondisclosure
Except to the extent applicable law provides otherwise, the Parties agree to keep confidential and not to disclose (and
shall make all reasonable best efforts to cause their employees, agents, and attorneys to keep confidential and not to
disclose) the existence and/or terms of any decision (whether final or otherwise) issued by an arbitrator concerning a
Claim except (i) as authorized in writing by the non-disclosing Party; (ii) as required by law; (iii) as ordered by a court,
administrative, or governmental entity, or (iv) to the Party’s attorney.
14. Completeness and Amendments
This Arbitration Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between RAS and Provider pertaining to the resolution of
disputes between the parties and the subject matter contained herein, and fully replaces and supersedes all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings regarding the same, except as provided in Sec-
tion 9 of this Agreement. No modification or amendment to this Arbitration Agreement is binding unless in writing and
signed by both RAS and Provider.
