You understand that aspects of this Website and the Services may not be available in all jurisdictions and that you are responsible for ensuring that it is lawful for you to use this Website and receive the Services in your jurisdiction.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right at any time to change: (i) the terms and conditions of these Terms and Conditions; (ii) this Website or the Services, including terminating, eliminating, supplementing, modifying, adding or discontinuing any content or feature or data or service on or available through this Website or the Services; (iii) any fees or charges, if any, related to the use of this Website or the Services; and (iv) the equipment, hardware or software required to use and access this Website or the Services.

Any changes we make to these Terms and Conditions will be effective immediately upon posting on this Website. Be sure to return to this Website periodically to ensure you are familiar with the most current version of these Terms and Conditions.

1. eRESERVATIONS

Generally

The payment of an eReservation allows you the opportunity to be one of the first to purchase a new, high-demand Audi vehicle that is featured on this Website and is available for eReservation (a "Vehicle"). eReservations may only be used at a participating, independently-operated Audi dealership in Canada (a "Dealer").

We reserve the right to refuse access to this Website or the Services to anyone, at any time, for any reason.

When placing an eReservation:

• you must use a valid credit card (i) that has been issued to you personally, (ii) that we accept, and (iii) that we are authorized to process a charge in the amount of the eReservation;

• you represent and warrant that: (i) the payment information that you provide to us is both valid and correct; and (ii) you are the person names in the credit card provided; and

• you consent to be billed for the eReservation in compliance with: (i) applicable legal requirements; and (ii) the requirements disclosed to you by your credit card issuer.

In addition, you may need to sign up for, open and maintain an account (“Account”). You agree at all times to: (i) provide accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by our registration form or otherwise; and (ii) maintain and update your information (including your e-mail address) to keep it accurate, current and complete. To the extent applicable, you agree not to: (i) disclose your username and password to any third party; or (ii) use the account, username, or password of anyone else at any time. You also agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use, theft or misappropriation of your Account, username, or password. We will not be liable for any loss that you incur as a result of someone else using your username or password, with your knowledge.

Under no circumstances will Audi be responsible: (i) for any charges that your credit card issuer may apply to you as a result of our processing the payment of your eReservation; (ii) if your credit card issuer refuses or fails to authorize payment by you; or (iii) for any delays in the purchase or non-availability of the Vehicle that you endeavored to reserve arising from any validation checks that may be carried out regarding your payment or identification.

Once processed (by our third party service providers), your eReservation will be paid directly to Audi and transferred to your selected Dealer. You may choose to apply your eReservation to the purchase of your requested Vehicle (or a different Audi vehicle). Any sale, lease or finance of a Vehicle shall be subject to your acceptance of the terms and conditions of your selected Dealer's vehicle sales contract, lease contract, and/or finance contract, as applicable.

Please note that you may not sell, give away, or otherwise transfer your eReservation to another person, entity or organization.

Wait List

If the number of the eReservations for a Vehicle exceeds the number of Vehicles available to be sold, you may request to record your interest in placing an eReservation by adding them to the cancellation wait list (“Wait List”). If you join the Wait List, you may be provided with a link to complete an eReservation if an eReservation becomes available. In any such case, you will only have 48 hours to complete your eReservation. After that time: (i) your opportunity to obtain an eReservation will automatically expire without any further notice to you; and (ii) you will be required to rejoin the Wait List (where you will be at the bottom of the list).

Please note that if you join the Wait List, there is no guarantee that an eReservation will be made available to you. Placement on the Wait List does not constitute an offer or agreement for the purchase of a Vehicle. For the avoidance of doubt, placement on the Wait List does not guarantee the sale of any Vehicle to you.

2. SERVICE LIMITATIONS

Please note each of the following important limitations with respect to the Services (including eReservations):


• only one (1) eReservation of a Vehicle is permitted per customer;

• the ability to make an eReservation is only available to legal Canadian residents of legal driving age with a valid licence;

• eReservations may not be made by: (i) employees of Audi and its related and affiliated companies; and (ii) owners and employees of Dealers;

• Audi does not sell cars directly to the public. Accordingly, Audi is not selling you a Vehicle. Any resulting sale or lease of a Vehicle in connection with an eReservation is strictly between you and your selected Dealer;

• as your selected Dealer is responsible for all Vehicle sales and leasing, your Dealer may assist you in securing financing for a Vehicle;

• the placement of an eReservation does not constitute: (i) an offer or agreement for the purchase of a Vehicle; (ii) a down-payment in connection with the purchase of a Vehicle; or (iii) a guarantee of a Vehicle or delivery of a Vehicle within a specific time period. For the avoidance of doubt, the placement of an eReservation does not guarantee your placement in an order queue to purchase your requested Vehicle, or guarantee the sale of that Vehicle (or any other Vehicle) to you; and

• the time period between payment of your eReservation and being granted the opportunity to purchase or lease a Vehicle may extend weeks or months. During this time, the eReservation will not accrue any interest or likewise be negatively affected in any way: the value of your eReservation remains unchanged from the amount paid by you.

Also note that vehicle pricing may not be available at the time you make your eReservation. All prices shown on the Website are in Canadian dollars, estimates based on the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price, and include applicable fees such as freight and PDI, environmental levies (for new vehicles) and any dealer administration fees, but do not include any applicable sales taxes. Neither this Website nor any eReservation is an advertisement to sell at specific prices or on specific credit terms. Models are shown for illustration purposes only and may include features that are not available on the Canadian model. Specifications, equipment, options and prices are subject to change without notice. Although we endeavour to ensure that the information contained on the website is accurate, as errors may occur from time to time. Please contact your local Audi dealer for details.

NEITHER AUDI NOR ITS DEALERS REPRESENT, WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THAT THE VEHICLE YOU WISH TO RESERVE WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR LEASE BY YOU. THERE MAY BE CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH YOUR eRESERVATION IS CANCELLED BY AUDI OR THE DEALER (AS DESCRIBED IN THE NEXT SECTIONS OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS) -- IN WHICH CASE YOUR SOLE REMEDY WILL BE A REFUND OF THE AMOUNT THAT YOU PAID FOR YOUR eRESERVATION.


3. CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS

Your eReservation is fully refundable and may be requested through this Website or by contacting us at auditalk@audi.ca. Refunds requested within 60 days of the eReservation will be processed by Audi and refunded to the same credit card used to make the eReservation. After 60 days, refunds of the eReservation will be processed by your selected Dealer by cheque. Alternatively, you may elect to have your selected Dealer apply the funds to the purchase of a different Audi vehicle.

Please note that both Audi and your selected Dealer reserve the right to cancel your eReservation for any reason, including: (i) by Audi, due to your non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions; (ii) an inability to contact you; (iii) an inability to fulfill the requested Vehicle, (iv) your inability to complete the purchase of the Vehicle within a reasonable time; or (v) any other reasonable occurrence beyond Audi’s or your selected Dealer’s control.

In the event your eReservation is cancelled by Audi or your selected Dealer, the amount that you paid for your eReservation will be refunded to you, and you will be removed from the order queue for your requested the Vehicle. This refund will be your only remedy in connection with any cancellation of your eReservation.

4. PRIVACY

We may also share your personal information from time to time with our third party information technology, data processing and payment processing service providers (and their agents) so that we may provide you with the Services.
