Safe Haven Security Services, LLC v. Donald Starks

Filed: Mar 10, 2026
Type: CS

What's This Case About?

Let’s cut to the chase: a security company is suing a man for $1,530.77 because he stopped paying for an alarm system he never actually paid for—because the contract says it was free. That’s right. Donald Starks signed up for a full home security package with Safe Haven Security Services, LLC, including cameras, motion sensors, smoke detectors, and 24/7 monitoring… and according to the paperwork, the equipment was free. Zero dollars. Zilch. And yet, here we are, in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, in early 2026, with a lawsuit over unpaid monthly bills that ballooned into over fifteen hundred bucks. How? Oh, you’re gonna love this.

So who are these people? On one side, we’ve got Safe Haven Security Services, LLC, a Missouri-based ADT-authorized dealer that sounds like it was named by a focus group of anxious homeowners. They sell peace of mind—or at least the idea of it—in the form of monitored alarm systems, outdoor cameras, and the ever-popular “Interactive Solution Services,” which, according to the contract, includes “web access” and “supplementary email notifications.” Revolutionary. On the other side is Donald Starks, a residential customer from Le Flore County, Oklahoma, who, on October 26, 2024, signed a 36-month contract for the “Video Lite” security package. He paid a $179 down payment—possibly for installation or setup—and agreed to $63.98 per month for monitoring and services. The equipment? Listed at $0.00. All of it. Three window sensors, two extended sensors, a carbon monoxide detector, a smoke alarm, a key fob, and three outdoor cameras—all free. Even the tax was $0.00. It was the ultimate “no money down” deal, the kind that makes you wonder what the catch is. (Spoiler: the catch is you.)

What happened? Well, the contract says Safe Haven fully performed. That means they allegedly installed the system, activated the monitoring, and sent bills every month like clockwork. Donald Starks, according to the filing, did not. He stopped paying. At some point—somewhere between October 2024 and January 2026—he ghosted the bill. No explanation given in the petition, no counterclaim filed (yet), no dramatic story of a botched installation or a false alarm that summoned the cops during a pizza night. Just… radio silence. And now Safe Haven wants its money: $1,530.77, to be exact. That includes the remaining balance on the contract, possibly with late fees, interest, or early termination charges baked in. Remember that $63.98 monthly fee? Over 24 months of nonpayment, that gets you to about $1,535—so this number tracks. He didn’t pay for nearly two years’ worth of service, and now the bill’s come due.

Why are they in court? Because Safe Haven is suing for breach of contract—the most common, most boring, and most petty reason for a civil lawsuit. They claim they held up their end: installed the system, monitored the house, sent the invoices. Donald didn’t pay. That’s it. That’s the case. No he-said/she-said. No missing package. No dog bites mailman. Just a man, a contract, and a trail of unpaid bills. The legal claim is straightforward: you agreed to pay, you didn’t, now pay up. And yes, the contract is stacked with clauses that would make a cult leader proud. You waive all liability. You agree to arbitration. You can’t sue in court. You can’t join a class action. You can’t even think about suing without sending a 45-day pre-arbitration notice. And if you cancel early? Boom—75% of the remaining balance. But none of that matters now. The only thing that matters is: the money didn’t come in.

What do they want? $1,530.77. Is that a lot? For a security system with free equipment? Honestly? It’s a lot. Let’s do the math: over three years, the total service cost was supposed to be $2,303.64. He paid $179 up front, so he owed about $2,124 over 36 months. If he paid for, say, six months, that’s about $384. Then stopped. So yes, $1,530 in unpaid bills lines up. But here’s the kicker: he never paid for the equipment. He only agreed to pay for monitoring. So Safe Haven isn’t suing because he stole a camera. They’re suing because he used their service and didn’t pay. And in their eyes, that’s theft of value. In our eyes? That’s capitalism with a monitoring fee.

Our take? The most absurd part of this case isn’t the amount. It’s the sheer density of the contract. This thing is 13 pages long, written in font size 9, filled with clauses that read like they were generated by a robot trained on legal horror stories. You waive your right to sue. You waive your right to complain. You waive your right to blame them if the alarm fails during a home invasion. You even agree that if someone sues them because of something you did, you have to pay their legal bills. And yet—and yet—the equipment is free. Why? Because this isn’t really a sale. It’s a subscription. The real product isn’t the alarm system. It’s the monthly bill. The hardware is just the Trojan horse. And Donald Starks? He played the game, got the free gear, used the service for a while… and then pulled the plug. And now, like a Netflix subscriber who forgot to cancel before the free trial ended, he’s got a bill.

Do we blame him? Not really. Do we blame the company? Not entirely. But do we root for the guy who got a bunch of free security gear and just… stopped paying? Absolutely. In the great pantheon of petty civil court dramas, this one’s a quiet masterpiece: a man outsmarted the system—until the system lawyered up. And now, in a courtroom in eastern Oklahoma, the final invoice is due.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. A. INSURANCE; WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. I agree that Dealer is not an insurer, and that Dealer is not providing me with insurance of any type.

Instead, the amounts Dealer charges me are based solely upon the value of the equipment and services Dealer provides and upon the limited liability Dealer assumes under this Contract. If I want insurance to protect against any risk of loss at my premises, I will purchase it. In the event of any loss, damage or injury, I will look exclusively to my insurer and not to Dealer to compensate me or anyone else. I release and waive for myself and my insurer all subrogation and other rights to recover against Dealer arising as a result of the payment of any claim for loss, damage or injury. B.

EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. IT IS IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE THE ACTUAL DAMAGES, IF ANY, THAT MAY RESULT FROM A FAILURE BY DEALER TO PERFORM ANY OF ITS OBLIGATIONS. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL I ATTEMPT TO HOLD DEALER LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGES TO PROPERTY.

H. WAIVER OF TORT CLAIMS. I AGREE THAT ANY DUTIES OWED TO ME BY DEALER ARE SET FORTH EXCLUSIVELY IN THIS CONTRACT AND I EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY CLAIMS OR DEFENSES BASED ON TORTIOUS CONDUCT, INCLUDING WILLFUL OR INTENTIONAL TORTS. I FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE ARE OTHER PROVIDERS OF THE EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES SET FORTH IN THIS CONTRACT AND AGREE TO CONTRACT WITH DEALER NOTWITHSTANDING THE PROVISIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH 6 AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON THE LIABILITY OF DEALER. 6. OTHER PARTY'S LIMITATION. IF I PURCHASED EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES FROM DEALER THROUGH ANOTHER BUSINESS OR PERSON, OR FROM DEALER THROUGH A REFERRAL FROM ANOTHER BUSINESS OR PERSON, I AGREE THAT SUCH OTHER BUSINESS OR PERSON ACTS SOLELY AS AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AND HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO ME FOR THE PERFORMANCE OR NONPERFORMANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY DEALER. I ALSO AGREE THAT ANY SUCH BUSINESS OR PERSON IS ENTITLED TO THE SAME RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS AS DEALER UNDER THIS CONTRACT, INCLUDING PARAGRAPH 6. 7. ARBITRATION. DEALER AND I AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN US SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THIS BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. Arbitration is a dispute-resolution process that does not involve a judge or jury. Instead, Disputes are decided by a neutral third-party arbitrator in a process that's less formal than court. As used herein, the term "Dispute" means any claim or controversy, including, but not limited to, Initiated claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims, whether based in contract; tort (civil); criminal; acts violative of any statute, code or regulation; or other legal theory. The term "Dispute" shall be given its broadest possible meaning and will apply to, without limitation, all claims and controversies arising from this Arbitration Agreement; sales activities; goods and services; advertisements; promotions and other customer issues, billing and collection practices; privacy; and any other dispute arising from my interaction or relationship with Dealer. Dealer agrees not to elect arbitration if I file a Dispute in a small claims court in my state of residence so long as the Dispute is individual and non-representative in nature and remains exclusively such as in small claims court. Pre-Arbitration Notice Requirement. Before initiating an arbitration or a small claims matter, Dealer and I agree to first provide to the other a written "Notice of Dispute" that will contain: (a) a written description of the issue and the supporting documents and information, and (b) a specific request for money or other relief. A Notice of Dispute to Dealer should be sent at the address written on Page One of this Contract, or as I may otherwise be directed by Dealer or its assignees. Dealer will mail a Notice of Dispute to my principal Premises address. Dealer and I agree to make attempts to resolve the Dispute prior to commencing an arbitration or small claims action. If an agreement cannot be reached within 45 days of receipt of the Notice of Dispute, Dealer or I may commence an arbitration proceeding or small claims action. Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding. If either party elects to arbitrate a Dispute, the Dispute shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement and the then-current code of proceedings of the national arbitration organization on which the Dispute is referred. A party may refer a Dispute to either the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS"). If Dealer elects arbitration and chooses one of the organizations administering the selection, I may object and automatically have the other organization administer the proceedings simply by notifying Dealer of my objection in writing within 30-days of my receipt of Dealer's initial selection. To obtain a copy of the procedures, or to file a Dispute, I may contact the organization at the following: (1) AAA, 335 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10022, www.adr.org, and (2) JAMS, 1920 Main Street, Suite 300, Los Angeles, CA 92614, www.jamsadr.com. IF EITHER PARTY ELECTS TO ARBITRATE A DISPUTE, DEALER AND I WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO OTHERWISE LITIGATE THE DISPUTE IN COURT. BY AGREEING TO THIS TRAP, THE PARTIES MAY ALSO WAIVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT WOULD OTHERWISc BE AVAILABLE IN COURT. FURTHER, IF EITHER PARTY ELECTS TO ARBITRATE A DISPUTE, I WAIVE MY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF ANY CLASS ACTION RELATING TO THE DISPUTE. This means that all Disputes selected for arbitration will be arbitrated on an individual basis between Dealer and Me only, without exception. A Dispute cannot be joined or consolidated with any other claim or action Arbitration Proceedings. because the transaction involves interstate commerce, this Arbitration Agreement and any Dispute arising hereunder shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"). The JAMS of AAA code of procedures, as chosen, will govern the arbitration, but if there is a conflict between the applicable code of procedures and this Arbitration Agreement, this Arbitration Agreement shall control to the fullest extent permitted by the FAA. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, the arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator at a location within the federal judicial district in which I reside. Upon My request, Dealer will reimburse Me for all filing and administrative fees required for initiating the arbitration. Otherwise, each party is responsible for its own respective costs and fees, including, but not limited to, attorney and expert fees. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law and, upon the request of either party, issue a written explanation of the basis for the decision. Judgment or the arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. PROCEDURE AS FOLLOWS: THE ARBITRATOR'S DECISION WILL BE FINAL AND BINDING. A party may appeal the arbitrator's initial award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the same arbitration organization upon written notice within 30 days of the initial award. The arbitration organization will notify the other party of the appeal. The panel shall consider any request of the initial award objected to by the appealing party and issue a decision within 120-days of the date of the notice of appeal. The majority decision by the three-member panel shall be final and binding. Any dispute regarding the applicability, enforcement or interpretation of Paragraph 5 above or this Paragraph 7, shall be resolved by a court having proper jurisdiction. This Arbitration Agreement will not prevent Me from bringing a Dispute to the attention of any federal, state or local government agency. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive termination of this Contract. 8. INSTALLATION. The equipment that Dealer installs under this Contract may be new or refurbished. In order for Dealer to install and service the equipment listed on this Contract, I agree that: (A) I own the premises or have authority to authorize Dealer to install the alarm equipment at the premises; (B) I will make the premises available without interruption during Dealer's normal working hours and will maintain the premises in a safe and sanitary condition suitable for work to be performed by Dealer's representatives without jeopardizing their health or safety; (C) the installation will require drilling into concrete walls and other parts of the premises; (D) I will provide Dealer with 110 AC electrical outlets for power equipment in locations designated by Dealer; (E) I will pay for and provide compatible internet connectivity, if applicable; (F) I will make arrangements for lifting and replacing carpeting, if required, for Dealer's installation of floor mats or wiring; (G) Dealer may not be able to connect any or all equipment or wiring; (H) Dealer will not be liable for property damage, personal injury, illness or other loss due to water intrusion, mold, fungi, wet or dry rot or bacteria that may result from the installation services; and (I) My premises complies with all applicable codes, regulations and laws and will continue to comply with all applicable codes, regulations and laws during the initial term and any renewal terms of this Contract. If applicable, Owner will attempt to convert the existing, previously installed alarm system to ADT or such other third party's monitoring center. Prior to connection, Dealer has the right to reject My system and My amenities to determine eligibility for Extended Limited Warranty/QSP coverage and may notify Me of any required repair/replace/rebuild costs related to the existing alarm system. Likewise or connection, if I desire to pay such repair/replace/rebuild costs, Dealer is not obligated to connect to the existing alarm system and may terminate this Contract without liability to Dealer. If the existing alarm system is connected to ADT's or such other third party's monitoring center, Dealer will have no liability for the maintenance, operation, non-operation, activation, non-activation or erroneous activation of the existing alarm system, connection or device(s), and any repairs will be performed on a bare and material basis by Dealer, subject to available parts, except for repairs/replacements covered by Extended Limited Warranty/QSP coverage if such coverage is provided under this Contract. Dealer shall not be liable for any losses whatsoever resulting from installation or other services either performed by Me or a third-party provider engaged by Me. I acknowledge and understand that any third-party provider engaged by Me is not an employee, subcontractor, or agent of Dealer and that any payment obligations to such provider are My sole responsibility. Terms and Conditions continue on accompanying sheets. 9. LIMITED WARRANTY. During the first 90-days after installation, Dealer (this reference to Dealer does not include ADT) will repair or, at its option, replace any defective part of the equipment Dealer supplies and installs, including wiring, and will make required mechanical adjustments, all at no charge to Me, if I am provided equipment for self-install, the 90-day warranty period for such equipment shall commence on the order date and will cover replacement equipment only. Dealer will use new or refurbished parts for replacements. This limited warranty is for My benefit only and may not be enforced by any other person. This limited warranty gives Me specific legal rights. The laws of the state where this Contract was signed may also give Me additional rights. To order service, call 800.682.5378. This limited warranty, and if purchased, the extended limited warranty, provided below, shall replace any other equipment warranty, including without limitation the manufacturer warranty. 10. EXTENDED LIMITED WARRANTY/QUALITY SERVICE PLAN (QSP). If I purchase Dealer’s Extended Limited Warranty, which is called the Quality Service Plan or QSP, Dealer will repair or, at its option, replace any part of the equipment supplied by Dealer that requires repair or replacement due to malfunction, excluding wiring and batteries. During the Extended Limited Warranty period, I will be charged a non-refundable on-site assessment charge in the amount of $85 for each service call booking for a Dealer technician to visit My premises for QSP service. On-site assessment charges may vary depending on the geographic location of the premises. Dealer has the right to change the QSP on-site assessment charge at any time by posting updated and current on-site assessment rates to myADT.com. It is your responsibility to check this link periodically for changes. Dealer will use new or refurbished parts for replacements. If I require services excluded from the QSP (see Paragraph 12 below for exclusions), then Dealer will provide the services at its current labor rate for such service call. The QSP and the billing for it will commence on the date the alarm system is installed, operational and communicating with Dealer’s CMIC and will continue for the term of this Contract. The QSP will automatically renew for successive thirty (30) day terms at Dealer’s then-current QSP rate unless terminated by either party’s written notice at least thirty (30) days before the end of the then-current term. If I purchase the QSP after the initial system installation, the alarm system must be in good working condition at the time I purchase the QSP. To purchase the QSP, call 800.682.5378. 11. WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS. Dealer performs warranty services only during normal working hours. IF I REQUEST DEALER TO PERFORM WARRANTY SERVICES OUTSIDE NORMAL WORKING HOURS, I WILL PAY FOR THE SERVICES AT DEALER’S THEN-CURRENT RATES FOR LABOR, PARTS AND EQUIPMENT. THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED UNDER THIS CONTRACT AND, IF PURCHASED, THE QSP DOES NOT APPLY IF DEALER DETERMINES UPON INSPECTION THAT ANY OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS CAUSED THE NEED FOR SERVICE: (A) damage resulting from accidents; theft; Acts of God; natural disasters, labor disputes, war, terrorism, civil strife, electrical surge, vibrations or misuse; (B) My failure to properly close or secure a door, window or other point protected by an alarm device; (C) My failure to properly follow the operating instructions; (D) trouble in a telephone line, use of non-traditional telephone line service (including but not limited to DSL, ADSL, VoIP, digital phone, internet-based phone, cellular, radio, etc.) or due to interruption of power; (E) loss or disruption of Internet connectivity; (F) repairs needed to window fail, security screens, exterior mounted devices (except for outdoor cameras, doorbells and door locks) or PRCD (Programmable Read Only Memory); (G) Ordinary wear and tear; (H) alterations to My premises or failure of My premises to comply with any applicable codes, regulations or laws; or (I) alterations or damage to the alarm system caused by fire or as a result beyond Dealer’s control. The limited warranty provided under this Contract and, if purchased, the QSP do not apply to household systems or devices not supplied by Dealer and connected to My alarm system for automation, alert or similar purposes, including but not limited to, the following: (a) Heating/air conditioning systems, lighting systems, doors, locks, garage doors, fans, blinds, shutters or appliances. Dealer will not perform warranty service in any device not supplied by Dealer even if installed by Dealer; (b) smoke or carbon monoxide detectors that have been installed for longer than five (5) years; or (c) any part, system or device that has been discontinued or is no longer supported by the device manufacturer. Additionally, I understand that I may be required to pay for the installation of new equipment if the installed equipment is, in whole or in part, discontinued or is no longer supported by the device manufacturer and My failure to pay for the installation of said new equipment shall not relieve Me of My obligation to pay any amounts owed for service hereunder. Battery replacement is excluded from all warranties. THE EQUIPMENT PROVIDED BY DEALER UNDER THIS CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH AND MAY NOT OPERATE WITH OTHER THIRD-PARTY ALARM OR HOME AUTOMATION SERVICES. This limited warranty and the QSP do not apply to promotional items or gifts. 12. NO OTHER WARRANTIES. OTHER THAN THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED UNDER THIS CONTRACT AND, IF PURCHASED, THE QSP, I AGREE THAT DEALER MAKES NO GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES DEALER PERFORMS OR THE EQUIPMENT IT PROVIDES. MY EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPHS 9, 10 AND 11 ABOVE. SOME STATES MAY NOT ALLOW THE PARTIES TO A CONTRACT TO LIMIT THE LENGTH OF AN IMPLIED WARRANTY. THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE THIS CONTRACT WAS SIGNED WILL DETERMINE WHETHER THESE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS APPLY. 13. ALARM MONITORING AND NOTIFICATION SERVICE. If I purchase a service that I rely upon response by police, fire department, guard, martial or other emergency notification or monitoring services and such an alarm is received at Dealer’s alarm monitoring center, Dealer may, at its sole and absolute discretion, attempt to contact Me and/or anyone on My Emergency Contact List to confirm that the alarm is not false. If Dealer does not contact Me and/or someone on My Emergency Contact List, or if Dealer questions the response I receives upon such contact, then (A) Dealer will attempt to notify the appropriate police or fire department or (B) if guard response service is provided and an alarm requires police response, Dealer will attempt to dispatch a representative to make an investigation of the exterior of the premises from his or her vehicle and, upon evidence of a crime, Dealer will endeavor to notify the appropriate police department. If Dealer provides supervisory alarm or trouble alarm monitoring services (or if such services are actively programmed into My alarm system) and Dealer’s alarm monitoring center receives an alarm, then Dealer may attempt to notify My premises and/or the representative I designate. Dealer may use an automated calling device to deliver such notification. If these calls emergency notification services are provided, I agree that the very nature of such services, regardless of any delay, involves uncertainty, risk and possible serious injury, disability or death, for which I will not attempt to hold Dealer responsible or liable; that the equipment furnished for medical emergency notification services is not “failsafe” and may experience signal transmission failures or delays for any number of reasons; and that the actual time required for medical emergency providers to arrive to My premises and/or to transport any person requiring medical attention is unpredictable with many contributing factors, including telephone network operation, distance, weather, road and traffic conditions, alarm equipment function and human factors both within and outside of Dealer’s control. The persons identified on My Emergency Contact List are authorized to act on My behalf. Local laws, ordinances or policies may restrict Dealer’s ability to provide the alarm monitoring and notification services described in this Contract and/or necessitate modified or additional services will addional charges to Me. Dealer employs a number of industry-recognized measures to help reduce occurrences of false alarms. These measures include, but are not limited to, implementation of default settings on alarm panels and various procedures at Dealer’s alarm monitoring centers to determine when and how to respond, if at all, to certain alarm events. I consent to Dealer’s use of these measures and agree that My alarm system has not been designed, programmed or installed pursuant to any law, code or rule that may be applicable to My particular premises, including, but not limited to, any code provisions of the National Fire Protection Association or the International Residential Code. Upon receiving notice on that an alarm signal has been received by Dealer, the police department, fire department or other responding authority may forcibly enter My premises. Dealer will never arrest or detain any person for any reason. If My service includes cameras or equipment with audio recording and/or monitoring, I will comply with all federal, state and local laws governing the placement, presence, operation and use of such equipment, including without limitation to privacy, video surveillance, eavesdropping and wiretapping laws and shall fully and conspicuously notify others in or around the premises or equipment. Whether by use of legible signs or other approved communications, that their activities may be recorded. I agree that the equipment installed by Dealer, including any outdoor camera, is not to be used to monitor activity in or near any swimming pool or other body of water and that I alone am responsible for supervising the well-being of any person in or near any swimming pools or other bodies of water or the premises. Florida law requires alarm verification before Dealer can contact a law enforcement agency for alarm dispatch. Customers both using the protected premises to store firearms or ammunition and holding a valid federal firearms license as a manufacturer, importer, or dealer of firearms ammunition may opt out of the alarm verification process by contacting Dealer at 800.682.5378. If video or audio verification of alarm events at My premises is included with My services or equipment, I agree and understand that Dealer and First Responders will access and view images, audio and other data captured by the equipment at My premises and endeavor to use these images and other data to provide visual or audio verification of an alarm event. Further, I understand and acknowledge the inherent limitations associated with visual and audio verification, including without limitation: (i) inadequate illumination of viewing areas; (ii) physical obstructions in the field of view of the video Camera; (iii) inadequate receipt, clarity, placement or quality of the images and (iv) uncertainty regarding the source of the audio content. Dealer does not guarantee that viewing the images or listening to audio captured by the equipment will result in effective verification of events requiring alarm response. I assume full responsibility for (a) the placement, direction and presence of equipment; (b) transmission, transfer or other use of any images, audio or other data captured by the equipment; (c) the manner of use of the equipment or data captured by the equipment; (d) complying with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and ordinances in connection with the use and operation of the equipment. Terms and Conditions continue on accompanying sheets. 14. FAMILIARIZATION PERIOD. UNLESS I HAVE REJECTED THE FAMILIARIZATION PERIOD BY INITIALIZING THE APPROPRIATE LINE ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS CONTRACT (EXCEPT WHERE FAMLIARIZATION IS REQUIRED BY LAW), I AGREE THAT, DURING A SEVEN (7) DAY FAMILIARIZATION PERIOD, OR LONGER PERIOD IF REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FOLLOWING COMPLETION OF THE INSTALLATION (AND DURING ANY APPLICABLE EXTENSIONS) DEALER HAS NO OBLIGATION TO, AND WILL NOT, RESPOND TO ANY ALARM SIGNAL FROM MY PREMISES. I ALSO AGREE THAT DURING SUCH PERIOD DEALER HAS NO OBLIGATION TO, AND WILL NOT, NOTIFY ANY AUTHORITIES, ME OR MY DESIGNATED REPRESENTATIVE, OR TAKE ANY OTHER ACTION WITH REGARD TO ANY ALARM SIGNAL DEALER RECEIVES, EVEN IF DUE TO AN ACTUAL EMERGENCY. 15. FAILURE TO PAY CHARGES OR HONOR CONTRACT. If I fail to make any payment when due or to honor any other term or condition of this Contract, Dealer may terminate this Contract and/or stop providing the alarm monitoring and notification services and repossess or disable the equipment without notice. I will grant Dealer access to My premises and allow it to reprogram or disable the Equipment. Dealer has no liability if Dealer stops providing the alarm monitoring and notification services and repossesses or disables the equipment. If Dealer terminates this Contract due to My failure to honor any term of this Contract and Dealer incurs costs before payment in full is received for all Installation Charges, Dealer may deduct 3% costs from any deposit I provided to Dealer. In addition to any other legal remedy available, Dealer is not required to redecorate or repair My premises as a result of repossessing or disabling the Equipment. In addition to these measures, Dealer does not waive and expressly retains the right to exercise any other legal remedy, including the right to charge Me a late fee at the highest legal rate for each month that a payment is not received and/or interest on the unpaid amount, and the right to report Me to one or more consumer reporting agencies if I become delinquent on My account (more than 60-days without a payment). 16. SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. IF THE ALARM SYSTEM INCLUDES SMOKE AND/OR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS, I AGREE THAT: (A) THE NUMBER AND PLACEMENT OF SUCH DETECTORS MAY NOT FULLY FULFILL THE REQUIREMENTS OR RECOMMENDATIONS IN CODES, LAWS OR STANDARDS THAT APPLY IN MY JURISDICTION, INCLUDING THE CODE PROVISIONS OF THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION AND THE INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE; (B) I HAVE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLYING WITH ANY AND ALL CODES, LAWS AND STANDARDS THAT MAY APPLY TO THE INSTALLATION, PLACEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF THE ALARM SYSTEM; AND (C) ANY SMOKE AND/OR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS DESCRIBED IN THIS CONTRACT ARE SUPPLEMENTAL DEVICES ONLY AND ARE NOT INTENDED TO BE PART OF A PRIMARY FIRE ALARM OR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTION SYSTEM. I UNDERSTAND THAT DEALER'S ELECTRICAL SMOKE DETECTORS AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS, IF INSTALLED ON MY PREMISES, ARE DESIGNED TO BE CONNECTED TO AN ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE. THESE DETECTORS WILL NOT OPERATE, THE ALARM WILL NOT SOUND, AND THE ALARM SIGNAL WILL NOT BE TRANSMITTED WHEN: THE ELECTRICITY IS CUT OFF; THE BACKUP BATTERY, IF INCLUDED AS PART OF THE SYSTEM, IS LOW OR DEAD; OR FIRE OR SOME OTHER CAUSE CUTOFF THE ELECTRICITY BEFORE THE ALARM IS ACTIVATED, SOUNDS AND TRANSMITTED. CONNECTING THESE DETECTORS TO A SEPARATE, DEDICATED ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT MAY INCREASE THEIR RELIABILITY, BUT EVEN DEDICATED CIRCUITS CAN FAIL. I UNDERSTAND THAT THESE DETECTORS ALL HAVE LIMITED USEFUL LIVES, AFTER WHICH TIME THEY WILL NOT FUNCTION. IT IS MY SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO MONITOR AND REPLACE ALL DETECTORS BEFORE OR AT THE END OF THEIR USEFUL LIVES. 17. BATTERY-POWERED AND WIRELESS DEVICES. I understand that all battery-powered motion detectors, smoke detectors, door and window contact transmitters and other detection sensors installed under this Contract are not connected to the electrical system of My premises and require batteries to operate. THESE BATTERY-POWERED DETECTION SENSORS WILL NOT OPERATE AND THE ALARM WILL NOT SOUND, IF THE BATTERIES ARE LOW OR DEAD. It is My sole responsibility to maintain and replace these batteries. Dealer recommends that I regularly inspect the sensors for dirt and dust build-up and test the sensors weekly to help maintain continued operation. Dealer also recommends that I carefully read and follow the owner's manual, instructions and warnings for all equipment. I understand that wireless devices, including but not limited to wireless motion detectors, door and window contacts, smoke detectors and other wireless devices installed by ADT will not communicate with the alarm system and THE ALARM SYSTEM WILL NOT FUNCTION IF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION FOR THE DEVICES IS IMPAIRED. THESE WIRELESS DEVICES MAY OR MAY NOT USE ENCRYPTION AND/OR AUTHENTICATION TECHNOLOGY AND ARE VULNERABLE TO INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL INTERRUPTION, INTERCEPTION, CORRUPTION AND TAMPERING. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to reduce the effectiveness of My alarm system, including intercepting or jamming the wireless signals of My ADT equipment. 18. ALARM SYSTEM COMMUNICATION. I authorize Dealer to request service from a telephone, wireless or other communication carrier under this Contract referred to as "Telephone Company") to transmit signals between My alarm system and Dealer's alarm monitoring. The Telephone Company's inability is noted in the same regard as Dealer's inability in Paragraph 5 of this Contract. Dealer will not receive alarm signals when the communication mode is not operating or has been cut, interfered with or is otherwise damaged, or if the alarm system is unable to acquire, transmit or maintain an alarm signal over the communication mode for any reason. If Dealer determines in its sole discretion that My communication mode is or later becomes non-compatible, or if I change to another communication mode that is not compatible, then Dealer requires that I use an alternate mode of communication acceptable to Dealer as the method to connect the alarm system to Dealer's alarm monitoring. Transmission of the alarm signals by means other than a traditional telephone line may not be in compliance with any cable fire alarm or other standards or codes, and it is solely My obligation to comply with such standards and codes. If the alarm system has a line-cut feature, it may not always be able to detect if My communication line is cut or interrupted. Dealer recommends that I test the alarm system monthly even though a successful test of the alarm system does not guarantee that Dealer will receive alarm signals from the system in the future. If My source includes Dealer ADT Interactive Security Solutions and/or automation features, Dealer may directly or through third party service providers, transmit, record, store, provide and/or receive unencrypted data, images, and e-mails and text messages via the Internet to the extent providing these interactive services, I will not be able to utilize those automation functions or receive e-mail or text alerts if My Internet connection is impaired, disrupted or unavailable for any reason. Dealer does not warrant or guarantee the integrity, accuracy, confidentiality or security of any such transmission or from any unauthorized or unexpected use, disclosure, corruption, interception or other improper act. 19. CANCELLATION. A. Dealer may, at any time, cancel this Contract at its option if: (1) Dealer's alarm monitoring center is destroyed or damaged so that it is impractical for Dealer to continue Service; (2) Dealer cannot acquire or retain the transmission connections or authorization to transmit signals between My premises and its alarm monitoring center, or the applicable fire or police department or other agency, or between Dealer's alarm monitoring center and the applicable fire or police department or other agency; (3) I fail to follow Dealer's recommendations to repair or replace any defective parts of the alarm system not covered under the Limited Warranty or QSP, if purchased; (4) I fail to follow the operating instructions for the alarm system or monitoring; or (5) Dealer determines in its absolute and sole discretion that it is impractical to continue Service due to the modification or alteration of My premises after installation. If Dealer cancels for any of the reasons stated immediately above, Dealer will refund any advance payments made for services to be supplied after the date of such termination, less any amounts still due for the installation of the equipment, for services already rendered, and any other charges due. Additionally, Dealer will not assess contract termination charges, if any, as described in Paragraph 2 above. B. Dealer may cancel this Contract upon written notice to Me if: (1) I fail to pay any monies when due under this Contract, (2) I change to a telephone/communications service not suitable for alarm signal transmission or (3) I fail to comply with any other term or condition of this Contract. Upon receipt of written notice from Dealer, I will have ten (10) days to correct the deficiency. If I do not correct the deficiency in a timely manner, and Dealer does cancel this Contract, Dealer may assess contract termination charges, if any, as described in Paragraph 2 above. Terms and Conditions continue on accompanying sheets. 20. ASSIGNMENT: I may not assign this Contract without prior written consent from Dealer. Dealer does have the right to assign this Contract or to subcontract any of its obligations under this Contract without My approval and without notice to Me. 21. DELAYS. DEALER HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO ME OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DELAYS IN THE INSTALLATION OR REPAIR OF THE EQUIPMENT REGARDLESS OF THE REASON. DEALER HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR INTERRUPTIONS OR SERVICE OR ANY RESULTING CONSEQUENCES, WHETHER DUE TO STRIKE, RIOT, FLOOD, FIRE, TERRORISM, ACT OF GOD OR ANY OTHER CAUSE WITHIN OR BEYOND DEALER'S CONTROL. IF THERE ARE SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS, DEALER HAS NO OBLIGATION TO SUPPLY ME WITH SUBSTITUTE SERVICES. 22. PERSONAL INFORMATION: I consent to Dealer's use of My personal information and that of third parties provided to Me for the purposes of monitoring, setting up and administering My security services including credit approval, invoicing, and collecting) and providing information on new services or equipment. I consent to Dealer recording My telephone conversations with Dealer representatives. I have obtained the consent of the third parties whose personal information I provided to Dealer to use such personal information for the administration of My account with Dealer. Dealer may collect, use, disclose and transfer My personal information, and that of third parties provided by Me to Dealer, Dealer's parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and successor entities, any subcontractor or assignee of this Contract or any applicable authority having jurisdiction that requests such information to administer alarm monitoring services or alarm system license, permit or similar programs. 23. INSPECTION SERVICE: Where Inspection Service is provided under this Contract, Dealer will perform periodic inspections of the Equipment in the manner and frequency indicated on the front page of this Contract. I authorize Dealer to make any repairs necessitated by damaged or misfunctioning Equipment noted during such an inspection. I further agree to pay Dealer for Service and Equipment charges in connection with those repairs at the then-current rates charged by Dealer unless I purchased QSP under the terms listed in this Contract and such repairs are covered by QSP, in which case the service charges will be as set forth in Paragraph 16 above. 24. INVESTIGATOR RESPONSE SERVICE: Where Investigator Response Service is provided under this Contract, Dealer has entered into a separate agreement with an Investigator Response Service to provide investigator response at My option. Neither Dealer nor the Investigator Response Service will be liable for Dealer's or the Investigator Response Service's failure to perform hereunder due to acts of God, fire, strikes, work stoppages, differences with workforce, restrictions imposed by government agencies, war, terrorism, riot or any cause outside of Dealer's or the Investigator Response Service's control as the case may be. Investigator Response Service may be terminated or substituted at any time at Dealer's option. 25. PRIVACY POLICY: Dealer will make its privacy policy available to Me. IF ADT ACCEPTS THIS CONTRACT, I UNDERSTAND THAT ADT MAINTAINS A POLICY AT WWW.ADT.COM/PRIVACY THAT IS APPLICABLE TO THE TERMS, CONDITIONS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS CONTRACT. 26. ENTIRE AGREEMENT CONTRACT: This Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. I am not relying on Dealer's advice or advertisements. Dealer is not bound by any representation, promise, condition, indulgence or warranty, express or implied, that is not included in writing in this Contract. The terms and conditions of this Contract apply as written without alteration or qualification, unless a change is approved in writing by an Dealer authorized representative. The terms and conditions of this Contract shall control and govern even if there are other documents with inconsistent or additional terms and conditions. If a court determines that any provision of this Contract is invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed amended and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. Each and every other provision of this Contract shall continue to be valid and enforceable. 27.

We would like you to know that in most jurisdictions there are ordinances regulating the installation and/or operation of security systems that may require construction, electrical, or fire alarm permit(s) as well as registering the security system with the local jurisdiction to obtain an alarm permit. You are responsible to pay all permits fees. Permit fees are determined by your local jurisdiction and are non-negotiable and non-refundable. CONSTRUCTION / ELECTRICAL / FIRE INSTALLATION PERMIT REQUIREMENTS Your local jurisdiction may require the company installing the security system to obtain one or more installation permits, regardless if it is a full or partial system being installed. This may affect the actual installation date outside of our control. Important: We will not install smoke detectors if the existing fire alarm system is not code compliant. When we do install smoke detectors, these devices do not replace or represent a primary fire alarm system. How Installation Permits are Obtained and Fees Paid We will request and obtain the required permit(s). When applicable, your account will be billed for the permit and processing fees. Permit fees are determined by your jurisdiction and are non-negotiable and non-refundable. Inspections As part of the permitting process, after the installation of your security system is complete, an inspection may be required by a local code enforcement department or third-party inspector. • We will mail you a copy of each approved permit. The time frame for this process varies depending upon the jurisdiction. • When you receive the permit(s), there will be instructions and a telephone number included for you to schedule the inspector(s). • There is no charge to you for the inspection. However, failure to schedule or complete an inspection within the specified period as well as not having the appropriate documents for the inspector at the time of the inspection may result in fines and/or additional filing fees. BURGLAR/FIRE PERMIT/ ALARM SYSTEM USER REGISTRATION INFORMATION Your local municipality may require the security system be registered with the police and/or fire department to obtain alarm permit(s). Alarm permits may require an annual renewal; contact your local municipality to determine your responsibilities. When we are required to collect the permit fee from you and submit it on your behalf, there will be a non-refundable alarm registration fee applied to your account. When notifying the authorities, ADT may be required to give an Alarm User Permit number to the dispatcher. If applicable, I acknowledge that if I am unable to provide ADT with the Alarm User Permit number at the time of activation, I must register the security system and contact ADT at 800.ADTS.ASP or e-mail [email protected] with the Alarm User Permit information as soon as it’s available. When e-mailing ADT, please include the following information: Name on the Account, Full Address, Phone Number, Customer Number and the Alarm User Permit Number and Expiration Date. Important: Failure to comply with these requirements may result in fines and/or no response from the authorities. By signing below, you acknowledge that we have advised you of applicable permit requirements and that you have read and understand the information contained on this form.

Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign, Inc. (DocuSign) electronic signing system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of this document. Getting paper copies At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign signer account, you may access them for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below. Withdrawing your consent If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below. Consequences of changing your mind If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of a DocuSign envelope instead of signing it. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents from us. All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures, authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures electronically from us. How to contact US: You may contact us to let us know of your changes as to how we may contact you electronically, to request paper copies of certain information from us, and to withdraw your prior consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically as follows: To advise US of your new e-mail address To let us know of a change in your e-mail address where we should send notices and disclosures electronically to you, you must send an email message to us at the address stated on your agreement (where your agreement is with an ADT Premier Provider, ADT Provider or ADT Authorized Dealer) or [email protected] (where your agreement is with ADT), and in the body of such request you must state: your previous e-mail address, your new e-mail address.
