Charges to Your Payment Method. Panera charges you for your Subscription using the Payment Method you provide at the time of enrollment, unless otherwise updated by Subscriber. By enrolling in the Subscription, you authorize Panera to charge your Payment Method the Beverage Subscription monthly price then in effect for the Subscription whether you use the Beverage Subscription Benefits or not, until cancelled by you as described in this Agreement. Your Subscription provides you the opportunity to use the Beverage Subscription Benefits and your non-use will not obligate Panera to provide you with any refund, in whole or part, of your Beverage Subscription monthly price. Panera reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes, even if it has already requested or received payment, and to update your information from available third-party sources. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your Subscription, we may suspend your access to the Subscription until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details. 7. Recurring Billing and Cancellation. 7.1. Recurring Billing. By enrolling in the Subscription, you authorize Panera to charge your Payment Method on a recurring monthly basis beginning on the day you start your Subscription and every 30 days thereafter (the “Billing Cycle”) until you cancel as described in Section 7.2 below, or Panera suspends, ends, or otherwise terminates your access to the Subscription, which it may do at any time. You hereby accept responsibility for all recurring charges made to your Payment Method prior to cancellation or termination. Unless and until you cancel, your Subscription will be automatically extended for successive monthly periods at the then-current Beverage Subscription monthly price. If you cancel your monthly Subscription, you may use your Beverage Subscription Benefits until the end of the applicable Billing Cycle and your Subscription will not be renewed after that Billing Cycle ends. Your non-termination or continued use of the Subscription reaffirms that Panera is authorized to charge your Payment Method on the recurring basis to which you agreed at enrollment. Panera may submit those charges for payment, and you will be responsible for such charges. PANERA MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU AFFIRMATIVELY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION OR NOTIFY US THAT YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD INFORMATION. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE PANERA REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION, VISIT YOUR MYPANERA ACCOUNT SETTINGS ON PANERABREAD.COM. 7.2 Changes or Cancellation.

If you cancel your Subscription, you may use your Beverage Subscription Benefits until the end of the Billing Cycle and your Subscription will not be renewed once that Billing Cycle ends. In such event, you will not be entitled to a prorated refund of any unused portion of the Beverage Subscription monthly price. If you signed up for the Subscription using your account with a third party as a Payment Method and wish to cancel your Subscription, you may need to do so through that third party, for example by visiting your account with the applicable third party and turning off auto-renew or unsubscribing from the Subscription through that third party. If you cancel your Subscription but want to re-enroll, you may do so by visiting your MyPanera Account settings on panerabread.com. 7.3 Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to your Payment Method varies from the current rate set forth in your initial offer due to an increase in our current rates (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), Panera shall provide notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 10 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with the issuer of your Payment Method will govern your use of your Payment Method as a payment mechanism. You agree that Panera may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle 7.4 Other.

Refunds will not be available to paid Existing Paid Subscribers and Existing Free Trial Subscribers and Existing Discounted Subscribers will no longer be eligible for promotions available to new subscribers.

Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY PANERA IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELLED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR ACCOUNT, USERNAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE TO YOUR MYPANERA ACCOUNT SETTINGS IF YOU FAIL TO NOTIFY PANERA OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, YOU AGREE THAT PANERA MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, UNLESS WE HAVE EVIDENCE THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. 9. Mandatory Binding individual Arbitration. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS. Except as set forth below, you and we agree that we will resolve all existing and future disputes between us (including any disputes between you and a third-party agent of ours, and any disputes that arose prior to your acceptance of this Agreement) through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and we hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (defined below). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and us or you and a third-party agent of ours (each a “Claim”) shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Consumer Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and we agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, scope or formation of this Agreement including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator's fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. This arbitration agreement does not preclude either party from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and we also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and we retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with this Agreement, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided herein. Neither you nor we may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or our individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable law subject to any applicable limitation of liability, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or herein, the arbitrator may not issue a “public injunction” and any such “public injunction” may be awarded only by a federal or state court, which that party shall be permitted to pursue in the appropriate court. If either party seeks a “public injunction,” all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any prayer or claim for a “public injunction” in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party’s claim or prayer for “public injunctive relief.” Including a claim for “public injunctive relief” in any complaint shall not deprive the arbitrator of any right to hear and adjudicate all other claims in arbitration. In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator. If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this Section of this Agreement will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Agreement. This Section of the Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with us. THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. * Home * Our Menu * Locations * Gift Cards20% OFF * Catering * About Panera * Panera at Home * Panera Merchandise * Beliefs * Press Room * Careers * Panera Bread Foundation * Community Giving * Fundraising Nights * * Customer Care * Popular Links Become a member and start earning rewards today.
