III. SALE IN INSTALLMENTS

A. Sale and Purchase. Under this Agreement, Company agrees to sell, and Purchaser agrees to purchase E-bike and to pay the total purchase price of E-bike in installments as detailed in Property Sale Form. This agreement is conditioned upon the approval of the Purchaser's Application, including a background check, as stipulated in Section II of this Agreement.

B. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will be in force between Company and Purchaser from the Effective Date until all Installment Payments have been made and all other obligations under this Agreement have been fulfilled unless canceled by Purchaser or terminated by Company.

С. Changes to Agreement. Company may amend this Agreement in its sole discretion. Company will reasonably notify Purchasers of any changes via email, notification through the Whizz personal account and mobile application, or by other means. Company will post the revised Agreement on the website at https://getwhizz.com/ and through the Whizz personal account and mobile application. The revised Agreement is effective immediately upon notification. The continuous payment of the Installment Payments following any changes to the Agreement automatically constitutes Purchaser’s acceptance of the amended Agreement. However, any amendments to this Agreement will not apply to Purchasers who have already entered into this Agreement and made their initial payment prior to the effective date of such amendments.

IV. PAYMENT TERMS

A. Total Purchase Price. The total purchase price of E-bike will be detailed in Property Sale Form specific to the transaction.

C. Installment Payments. The balance of the purchase price shall be paid in installments as outlined in Property Sale Form. Payments are due monthly, starting from the date of signing and/or receiving Property Sale Form and continuing on the same day of each subsequent month for the duration specified in Property Sale Form.

D. Payment Terms. Purchaser represents and warrants to Company that Purchaser is authorized to use any credit or debit card Purchaser furnishes to Company. Purchaser authorizes Company to charge the card for all Payments and other applicable fees, including Late Fees, incurred by Purchaser, and to transmit Purchaser’s credit or debit card information to Company’s third-party vendors for the sole purpose of processing such charges. All fees and costs, including Installment Payments and Late Fees, are due when incurred. Acceptable forms of payment are limited to valid, non-expired credit or debit cards issued in the Purchaser's name. Cash, checks, and temporary or prepaid credit/debit cards are not accepted.

E. Prepayment. Purchaser may prepay the outstanding balance in whole or in part only upon obtaining prior written consent from Company.

F. Disputed Charges. Purchaser may not dispute any charges on Purchaser’s credit or debit card account directly with their card provider. Instead, Purchaser must contact Company directly of charges Purchaser would like to dispute. Company will promptly investigate the matter and will report back to Purchaser as soon as possible. In the event it is found by Company that there has been an error in billing, Company will reverse the electronic payment transaction. Company’s findings will be the final. If Purchaser initiates a dispute directly with his/her credit or debit card provider, Company reserves the right to impose a fee on Purchaser, which will be equivalent to the disputed payment along with Late Fees and any other applicable fines. Additionally, Company may terminate the Agreement, repossess E-bike, and proceed with legal action against Purchaser, all at Company’s sole discretion.

G. Returned Payments. Purchaser is billed automatically for amounts due via credit/debit card or other means. If payment of any amount due, including the Installment Payments or Late Fees, is rejected by the credit/debit card provided by Purchaser, Company may take the necessary steps to collect the payment. This may include performing manual charges in full or in part that, in sum, equal the amount owed. By agreeing to these terms, Purchaser consents to Company performing such manual charges toward settling the amount owed. Company may also issue an invoice to Purchaser for the outstanding amount. If payment is not received, Company reserves the right to suspend or terminate the Agreement at Company's sole discretion and repossess E-bike. In addition, Company may resort to involving legal authorities and professional debt collectors to collect the payment owed. Purchasers are required to keep their payment method information current and accurate (e.g. billing address, credit/debit card number, and expiration date) and to notify Company if Purchaser’s credit or debit card is no longer valid. Ongoing issues with credit/debit card billings may result in termination of use of the Agreement. Under no circumstances will Company be responsible for any overdraft or other fees charged by Purchaser's credit/debit card issuing bank.

H. Partial Payments. In the event Purchaser is delinquent on any amount due, including Installment Payments, Company may elect to charge Purchaser's credit or debit card for partial payments of the amount due, without prior notice to Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to allow Company to charge Purchaser’s card for such partial payments.

I. Charges for Damages. In the event Company repossesses E-bike for any reason and any damage has occurred to E-bike, Company will have the right to charge the Purchaser's credit card directly for the full amount of the damages to E-bike according to Annex В and Annex C of this Agreement.

If Purchaser entrusts E-bike to anyone else, Purchaser will be responsible for any actions taken by third parties if such actions do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement. Purchaser will be liable for any damage, regardless of whether the damage occurs due to Purchaser's actions or those of any other person, until all payments and other obligations have been fulfilled by Purchaser.

G. Prohibition on Transfer. Purchaser may not transfer E-bike to a third party until the Purchaser has fulfilled all payments and other obligations under this Agreement. Any attempt to transfer ownership of E-bike before fulfilling all payments and other obligations will be considered a breach of this Agreement. Such a breach may result in legal action, including repossession of E-bike.

H. Calculation of E-Bike Cost in сase of Default. If Сompany is unable to repossess E-bike, the cost of E-bike will be calculated as follows: the fee will be determined based on the price of E-bike specified in Annex C and the duration of the bike's usage. If Purchaser has paid for 1 month of usage, the amount equivalent to that 1 month will be deducted from the total price of the E-bike listed in Annex C. This calculation will be adjusted according to the number of months paid for. Purchaser is obligated to pay the remaining amount in accordance with this calculation.

I. Calculation of E-Bike Cost in case of Theft or Loss. In the event of theft or loss, the fee will be calculated based on the price of E-bike as specified in Annex C and the duration of the bike's usage. If Purchaser has paid for 1 month of usage, the amount equivalent to that 1 month will be deducted from the total price of E-bike listed in Annex C. This calculation will be adjusted according to the number of months paid for. Purchaser is obligated to pay the remaining amount in accordance with this calculation.

J. GPS Device Services for Repossession. Purchaser acknowledges that GPS Services are utilized to facilitate the Repossession of E-bike in the event that necessary payments are not made. Location data and personal data collected through GPS Services will be handled in accordance with the Company's Privacy Policy.

Purchaser is not permitted to tamper with or disable the tracking system on E-bike until all payments have been fully completed.
