24. Dispute Resolution Provisions. The Agreement shall be treated as though it were executed and performed in New York, NY and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflict of law principles). The parties hereby agree to arbitrate all claims that may arise under the Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, should a dispute arise between the parties (including the Covered Parties) including, without limitation, any matter concerning the Site Offerings, the terms and conditions of the Agreement or the breach of same by any party hereto, (a) the parties agree to submit their dispute for resolution by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in New York, NY, in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration rules of the AAA, and (b) you agree to first commence a formal dispute proceeding by completing and submitting an Initial Dispute Notice which can be found here. We may choose to provide you with a final written settlement offer after receiving your Initial Dispute Notice (“Final Settlement Offer”). If we provide you with a Final Settlement Offer and you do not accept it, or we cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve your dispute and you wish to proceed, you must submit your dispute for resolution by arbitration before the AAA, in your county of residence, by filing a separate Demand for Arbitration, which is available here. For claims of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less, you can choose whether the arbitration proceeds in person, by telephone or based only on submissions. If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than our Final Settlement Offer, then we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if you retained an attorney to represent you in connection with the arbitration, we will reimburse any reasonable attorneys' fees that your attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Although we may have a right to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration, we will not seek such an award from you unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not bring, join or participate in any class action lawsuit as to any claim, dispute or controversy that you may have against the Covered Parties and/or their respective employees, officers, directors, members, representatives and/or assigns. You agree to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove you as a participant in the suit. You agree to pay the attorney's fees and court costs that any Covered Party incurs in seeking such relief. This provision preventing you from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits: (i) does not constitute a waiver of any of your rights or remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above; and (ii) is an independent agreement. You may opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice of your decision within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Site.

26. California Proposition 65 Warnings. Proposition 65, officially the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings to be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California state government as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California State consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more than 850 chemicals. In August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, effective on August 30, 2018, which change the information required in Proposition 65 warnings. We are providing the following warning for products linked to this page:
WARNING:
Bisphenol A (BPA): M8dical Product and Prescription Medication containers may have linings containing bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical known to the State of California to cause harm to the female reproductive system. Jar lids and bottle caps may also contain BPA. You can be exposed to BPA when you ingest LifeMD™ Products and/or Prescription Medications packaged in these containers. For more information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/BPA.

8. M8dical Weight Management Program Terms and Conditions. This section describes additional terms and conditions applicable to your participation in the M8dical Weight Management Program offered through M8dical and the affiliated professional entities that provide services on the M8dical platform.
The M8dical Weight Management Program is designed to provide access to routine and necessary services for weight loss with pharmacotherapy. The M8dical Weight Management Program is a primary care offering not intended for use in emergencies or mental health crises, or by patients with specialized needs that should be treated by appropriate specialists. The M8dical Weight Management Program is a membership-based service through which eligible Members can obtain limited medical care at the discretion of the Member’s provider, including medical provider services and laboratory testing, for a recurring quarterly payment. Although a Member’s provider may prescribe medication as appropriate, the cost of medication is not included in the M8dical Weight Management Program Fee. Medication is paid for separately and fulfilled through a pharmacy of the Member’s choice.
The M8dical Weight Management Program is not health insurance or a substitute for health insurance, does not meet any individual health insurance mandate under federal or state law, and cannot replace your relationship with any specialty provider. You should keep your existing health insurance coverage while you are participating in the M8dical Weight Management Program or obtain health insurance coverage if you do not currently have it.
As a primary care offering, the M8dical Weight Management Program features medical care that is available during normal business hours, Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Friday through Sunday 8:00 a.m Eastern Time to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, excluding holidays. Your provider will review messages within 48 hours. The M8dical Weight Management Program is not an emergency or on-call service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The operating hours of the M8dical Care Team (available to answer account or shipping-related questions by email at weight@m8dical.com) are Monday through Thursday, 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and Friday through Sunday 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, excluding holidays. In the case of an emergency, or if you are otherwise in crisis, call 911 immediately.
Onboarding and Diagnosis
In order to participate in the M8dical Weight Management Program, you must be evaluated by a health care provider on the M8dical platform and, in the professional judgment of such provider, meet the clinical criteria for participation. To be evaluated for participation, you must complete an initial onboarding telehealth medical assessment (the “Diagnosis Online Visit”) with a doctor or nurse practitioner, and, if ordered by your provider, complete a diagnostic blood test. If, following a review of the Diagnosis Online Visit and appropriate laboratory tests, your health care provider determines that you are a good candidate for treatment through the LifeMD Weight Management Program, he or she may initiate such treatment by writing you a prescription.
Program Membership and Additional Services
The M8dical Weight Management Program includes:
- Up to six (6) discrete medical consults per quarter with your M8dical -affiliated health care provider;
- Secure messaging with your care team between discrete medical consults;
- Lab work, as ordered by your M8dical -affiliated health care provider, and if lab work is conducted at a Quest or LabCorp location. M8dical does not cover the cost of labs collected at non-Quest and/or non-LabCorp locations;
- Evidence based onboarding curriculum.
TheM8dical Weight Management Program does not include the cost of medication, which is paid for separately.

TheM8dical Weight Management Program does provide insurance coverage support to Members, who, through our partner, will receive assistance with benefits verification for medication, which is ultimately fulfilled by a pharmacy of the Member's choosing.
In certain cases, you or your health care provider may request that you complete services (e.g., medical consults or laboratory testing) in excess of the M8dical Weight Management Program Services (the “M8dical Weight Management Program Additional Services”). For each medical consult above the quarterly limit, and for each additional laboratory test beyond the standard panel recommended by our providers for the M8dical Weight Management Program, you may be charged a separate fee per additional consult and/or lab. As part of your participation in the M8dical Weight Management Program, you agree that any M8dical Weight Management Program Additional Services Fees that you incur can be charged to your payment method on file within a timely manner.
The M8dical Weight Management Program Services may change from time to time.

If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than our Final Settlement Offer, then we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if you retained an attorney to represent you in connection with the arbitration, we will reimburse any reasonable attorneys' fees that your attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Although we may have a right to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration, we will not seek such an award from you unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not bring, join or participate in any class action lawsuit as to any claim, dispute or controversy that you may have against the Covered Parties and/or their respective employees, officers, directors, members, representatives and/or assigns. You agree to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove you as a participant in the suit. You agree to pay the attorney's fees and court costs that any Covered Party incurs in seeking such relief. This provision preventing you from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits: (i) does not constitute a waiver of any of your rights or remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above; and (ii) is an independent agreement. You may opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice of your decision within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Site.

26. California Proposition 65 Warnings. Proposition 65, officially the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings to be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California state government as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California State consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more than 850 chemicals. In August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, effective on August 30, 2018, which change the information required in Proposition 65 warnings. We are providing the following warning for products linked to this page:
WARNING:
Bisphenol A (BPA): M8dical Product and Prescription Medication containers may have linings containing bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical known to the State of California to cause harm to the female reproductive system. Jar lids and bottle caps may also contain BPA. You can be exposed to BPA when you ingest LifeMD™ Products and/or Prescription Medications packaged in these containers. For more information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/BPA.
