THE PLATFORM AND THE SERVICES The Platform and Services provide a home rental offering by Marriott whereby you may browse listings for homes (a “Home” or the “Homes”) and book short term rentals of such Homes through the Platform.

Guests who book Homes through the Platform are entitled to earn and use Loyalty Program points (“Points”) as set forth in these Terms and the Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Rules and as described below. EARNING LOYALTY PROGRAM POINTS * You are eligible to receive Loyalty Program Points for a completed Stay in a Home that is purchased through the Platform. However, Members cannot earn or receive benefits at multiple Homes in different cities for the same stay dates. * To ensure Points are posted to the correct Loyalty Program member account, your account number must be entered correctly at time of purchase on the Platform. You must already be a member of the Loyalty Program or sign-up for the Loyalty Program prior to purchase in order to earn Points on purchases through the Platform. * Points will be awarded based on a value of 5 base Points earned per qualifying $1 USD on all Qualifying Charges incurred and paid for by the Member through the Platform for up to three (3) Homes in the same city with the same check-in and check-out dates, provided they stay in one (1) Home and pay for all three (3) Homes. * Elite Point bonuses, based on Elite tier, will be awarded in accordance with the Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Rules. * Elite Night Credit will be earned on completed Stays booked through the Platform, whether it is purchased with Points or paid for. Members receive Elite Night Credits for one (1) Home and not any additional Homes they may have purchased with the same check-in and checkout dates. * Charges that do not qualify for Points include taxes and fees (e.g. cleaning fee, resort fee) applied to the Homes booked through the Platform, as well as add-on services purchased (e.g. incremental housekeeping, etc.). * Points will only be awarded for purchases made through the Platform and will not be given for any associated partners that may be promoted within pre-arrival or in-stay experience. * Points will not be issued on refunded purchases. * Effective January 1, 2022, Qualifying Charges on completed Stays in a calendar year at Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy will be applied to the Ambassador Elite Annual Qualifying Spend. * Miles cannot be earned for purchases made through the Platform. * If you are purchasing on behalf of other party, Points will be distributed to the account that is entered at time of booking. Only the Member who completes a Stay can earn Points and Elite Night Credit on a single purchase order made through the Platform. * Provided that the correct Loyalty Program account number is added as part of the booking process, Points will automatically appear in the member's account three (3) to six (6) weeks following the completion of their Stay. * Members who use their Marriott Bonvoy co-branded credit card for purchases through the Platform will also receive their bonus Points in their Marriott Bonvoy Account at the same time. * All Loyalty Program Rules apply to purchases made on the Platform. REDEEMING LOYALTY PROGRAM POINTS * A Member is eligible to redeem Points for Homes booked through the Platform at a ratio of 178.571428571 Points to every U.S $1 purchased (including fees, taxes). * Members have the flexibility to select the amount of cash and the amount of Points to be redeemed as combined payment for a Stay in a Home booked through the Platform (“Cash & Points Payment at HVMB”). * There are no fixed amounts of either cash to pay or Points to be redeemed. At least one-thousand (1,000) Points are required for the Cash & Points Payment at HVMB. * Members cannot use more Points than what they currently have in their Membership Account. * Major credit cards and Points are the accepted methods of payment for Cash & Points. * Marriott Gift Cards and Marriott Bonvoy Free Night Awards cannot be used as part of the Cash & Points Payment at HVMB. * Members will earn Points on the cash portion of their Cash & Points Payment at HVMB once the stay is completed, subject to the previous Section (“Earning Loyalty Program Points”). * Please note, Cash & Points Payment for Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy is different from Cash + Points Awards at Participating Properties (see Section 3 Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Rules). * Bookings purchased with Points or Cash & Points Payment at HVMB are eligible for earning Elite Night Credit in accordance with the Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Rules. * If bookings are cancelled, Points will be reimbursed in accordance with the Home cancellation policy. * Award Redemptions at Participating Properties listed under Section 3 of Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Rules are not available for use at HVMB including: all Award Redemption Stay types outlined in Section 3, Instant Redemption Awards, and Suite Night Awards.

GOVERNING LAW These Terms and all disputes, claims or controversies (collectively, “Disputes”) between you and Marriott relating to these Terms, the Services, the Platform, or the Content, are governed by and shall be construed and enforced under the laws of the State of Maryland, USA, applicable to contracts executed and performed within Maryland, USA. For all claims not subject to the arbitration clause, you specifically agree and submit to the jurisdiction of the State and Federal Courts situated in the State of Maryland and stipulate to the fairness and convenience of proceedings in such courts for all disputes arising out of or relating to the use of the Platform and the Services. You will not object to jurisdiction or venue on the grounds of lack of personal jurisdiction, inconvenient forum or otherwise. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. In the event of any Dispute relating to these Terms, the Platform, the Services or the Homes, including disputes before creation of your account of after termination of these Terms or your account, you and Marriott agree as follows: The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement section. Prior to initiating arbitration as described in this section, the party alleging a Dispute will first send a written notice to the other party with a detailed description of the nature of the Dispute, including all relevant facts, and the requested relief. All notices to Marriott must be sent by email to arbitrationhomesandvillas@marriott.com and by certified U.S. mail to Marriott Bonvoy, Inc., 10400 Fernwood Road, Bethesda, Maryland 20817-1102; ATTN: Legal. Marriott will send all notices to the email address associated with your account. We will both use reasonable, good faith efforts to resolve any Dispute via discussion and negotiation within 30 days from receipt of such notice, but if we are not able to resolve the Dispute within the 30-day time period, either party may initiate arbitration as described in this section. Arbitration is an alternative method of dispute resolution which is determined by an arbitrator, unlike litigation which is determined by a judge or jury. Arbitration awards are subject to limited court review. Where the relief sought is $10,001 or more, resolution shall be in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Procedure Rules for claims that do not exceed $250,000 and the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures for claims exceeding $250,000 in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. To start an arbitration with JAMS, you must do the following: (a) write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover (you may find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com); (b) send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to JAMS, Two Embarcadero Center, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94111; and (c) send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to Marriott Bonvoy, Inc., 10400 Fernwood Road, Bethesda, Maryland 20817-1102; ATTN: Legal. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties. All issues in dispute between the parties are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration and Class Action Waiver provision, as well as the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms or the Privacy Policy, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms or Privacy Policy is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator costs and expenses imposed by JAMS will be governed by the JAMS rules, provided that if you are initiating an arbitration against Marriott, then Marriott will advance all filing, administrative and arbitration costs and expenses imposed by JAMS (subject to reimbursement as set forth below). In the event that the arbitrator determines that all of the claims you assert in arbitration are frivolous according to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, you agree to reimburse Marriott for all such cost and expenses that Marriott paid and that you would have been obligated to pay under the JAMS rules. If you are a U.S. resident, arbitration will be held in the U.S. state in which you reside. If you are not a U.S. resident, arbitration will be held in Bethesda, Maryland. You and Marriott further agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the State of Maryland in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. If your claim is solely for monetary relief of US $10,000 or less (and does not include a request for equitable relief), then you may decide whether the arbitration will be conducted through a telephone or in-person hearing, or based solely on documents submitted to the arbitrator. If your claim exceeds US $10,000, AAA Rules will govern the right to a hearing. The arbitrator shall issue a written reasoned decision explaining the essential findings and conclusions on which the decisions and award are based. Exception: Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims: Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all Disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property, and claims based on unauthorized website access in state or federal court or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for Disputes within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. 30-Day Right to Opt Out: You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending (from the email address you used to register for your account) written notice of your decision to opt out to optouthomesandvillas@marriott.com with the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Platform or the effective date of the first set of Terms containing an Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Marriott also will not be bound by them. Class Action Waiver: You and Marriott agree to resolve all Disputes in an individual capacity, and not on behalf of or as part of any purported class, consolidated or representative action. You further agree not to participate in any class, consolidated or representative brought by a third party. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver in this Section is unenforceable, then that Dispute will not be subject to arbitration and must be brought in court. Changes to This Section: Marriott will provide thirty (30) days’ notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Platform, sending you a message, or otherwise notifying you when you are logged into your account. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Service or sent to you. Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on “Changes to This Section” is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled “Arbitration and Class Action Waiver,” and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the Service. Survival: This Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your account or the Service.
