          RIDER should CAREFULLY READ all terms and conditions before entering this Agreement.

          1.	PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT
          This document constitutes the entire Agreement ("Agreement") between (a) "RIDER", the person agreeing to lease and use a non-pedal assisted bike ("Classic Bike") and/or an electric pedal-assist bike ("eBike") (collectively ("Bike"), and (b) HEARTLAND BIKE SHARE ("HBS").

          2.	GENERAL RENTAL AND USE OF BIKE:  Agreements and Restrictions
          2.1	RIDER is sole user:  HBS expressly agrees to let, and the RIDER expressly agrees to take on, rental of the Bike subject to the terms and conditions set out herein.  HBS and the RIDER are the only parties to this Agreement.  The RIDER is the sole leasee and is solely responsible for compliance with all terms and conditions contained herein.
          2.2	RIDER is 12 years of age or older to operate a Classic Bike.  RIDER is 16 years of age or older to operate an eBike
          2.2.1    eBike RIDER is 16 years of age or older:  RIDER represents and certifies that RIDER is at least 16 years old to operate an eBike.  If RIDER intentionally or unintentionally misrepresents his/her age, RIDER accepts full responsibility and is liable for any consequence, claims, demands, causes of action, losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs and expenses, penalties, attorneys fees, judgments, suits or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever related to any such misrepresentation.
          2.2.2    Classic Bike RIDER is 12 years of age or older:  RIDER represents and certifies that RIDER is at least 12 years old to operate a Classic Bike.  If RIDER intentionally or unintentionally misrepresents his/her age, RIDER accepts full responsibility and is liable for any consequence, claims, demands, causes of action, losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs and expenses, penalties, attorneys fees, judgments, suits or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever related to any such misrepresentation.
          2.3	RIDER is a competent bike operator:  RIDER represents and certifies that he/she is familiar with the operation of the Bike, and is reasonably competent and physically fit to ride the Bike.
          2.4	Bike is exclusive property of HBS:  RIDER agrees that the Bike and any equipment attached thereto, at all times, remains the exclusive property of HBS.  RIDER will not make any modification to the Bike at any time.
          2.5	Bike Operating Hours and Bike Availability:  RIDER agrees and acknowledges that the Bikes are available seasonally, 7 days/week.  Bikes must be rented within the maximum rental time limits set forth in 2.6 below.  Bikes are limited and Bike availability at any station is never guaranteed.
          2.6	MAXIMUM RENTAL TIME AND CHARGES:  THERE ARE NO FREE RIDES. Maximum rental time is 24 hours.  RIDER agrees that RIDER will return the Bike to a designated Heartland B-cycle Bike Station within 24 hours of time that rental of the Bike began.  RIDER may then rent again.  RIDER agrees that they are solely responsible for being aware of any elapsed time related to the timely return.  Bike Rental Charges are $0 for the first hour and $5 each hour thereafter.  The maximum day charge is $50 and is based on a calendar day.  Upon return of the Bike, RIDER will be charged the accumulated rental charges, or the maximum day charge; whichever is less.  Bikes not returned within 72 hours will be considered stolen, and if RIDER has not communicated with HBS about the missing Bike nor made a good faith effort to recover the same, RIDER will be charged the full cost of a replacement Bike ($1600.00 for a Classic Bike or $2500.00 for an eBike).  The determination of whether RIDER is making a good faith effort to recover the Bike is solely within HBSs discretion.  If RIDER attempts in good faith to locate the missing Bike, and the Bike is recovered, the following fee structure applies:
If found 1 to 3 days after 72 hours of checkout: $75.00 fee
If found 3 to 7 days after 72 hours of checkout: $100.00 fee
If found beyond 7 days after 72 hours of checkout: $125.00 fee
Regardless of RIDERs good faith efforts at recovery, any Bike missing for more than 15 calendar days will be classified as lost and the replacement Bike cost may be assessed against RIDER.  All costs and fees are in addition to the parts & labor costs.  Labor fee is $25.00 per hour and will be charged for all time spent returning the recovered Bike to operational form. If Bike is found and deemed unsafe or beyond repair, the replacement fee will be assessed in addition to the others identified above.  The applicable local and state sales tax of 7% will be included in Rental and Replacement Charges.
          2.7	REFUND POLICY: Any users with concerns or questions about the above billing should call Heartland B-cycle at 402-957-2453.  THERE ARE NO FREE RIDES.  For valid charges such as access fees and accrued fees, partial refunds may be given at discretion of Heartland B-cycle with additional leniency given to first time users.  For incorrect charges due to user error full refunds may be given based at the discretion of Heartland B-cycle.  For incorrect charges due to system errors full refunds will be given to the user.
