TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO TORONTO Raptors MEMBERSHIP PACKAGES

A.  GENERAL.

1.             These terms and conditions, together with all ticket order and account information submitted by a Member (collectively the “Terms and Conditions”) shall apply to the purchase and use by the Member of a package of tickets to Toronto Raptors (“Team”) games (“Tickets”) at the arena located at 40 Bay St., Toronto, Ontario (the “Arena”) from Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Partnership (“MLSE”). By tendering payment to MLSE or accepting a Ticket, the Member signifies its acceptance of these Terms and Conditions and its agreement to be bound thereby.

2.             For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, “Member” means the individual or entity entered on the records of MLSE as being the account holder in respect of the purchase of a package of Tickets, “Commercial Reseller Member” means a Member who: (i) is in the business of making available for sale tickets that were originally made available for sale by a primary seller; or (ii) a Member who purchases with the primary intent of resale for commercial gain, and “Traditional Member” means a Member who is not a Commercial Reseller Member (e.g., a Member who primarily uses Tickets for personal and/or hospitality purposes).

3.             Subject to any other agreement between the parties (e.g., club agreement, personal seat license, etc.), the Member acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions, the opportunity to renew this membership is a personal privilege granted by MLSE which may be withdrawn by MLSE at any time and that neither party has the  right or obligation to renew a season seat membership.

4.             These Terms and Conditions supplement the ticket back terms and conditions that are either printed on the reverse side of each physical Ticket or made available digitally for mobile Tickets (the “Ticket Back Terms”), which also apply to the Member and each individual using any of the Member’s Tickets from time to time. The current version of the Ticket Back Terms is attached as Schedule A hereto. If any of these Terms and Conditions conflict with the Ticket Back Terms, these Terms and Conditions shall prevail to the extent of the conflict.

5.             Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Member acknowledges that each Ticket is a limited, revocable license to attend the game described on the Ticket face. As a revocable license, each Ticket may be revoked at any time (including before or after MLSE delivers the Ticket) for any reason (including, without limitation, Preemption (as defined below)) by MLSE, and, upon such revocation, MLSE shall refund or credit the holder of the Ticket in the amount of the stated face value of the Ticket, less the portion of any discount allocable to that Ticket as a result of the Ticket having been purchased as part of a Member Ticket package. MLSE shall have no liability in connection with the revocation of a Ticket other than the aforementioned refund or credit. MLSE’s right to revoke described in this Section is in addition to any other right of MLSE to terminate set forth in these Terms and Conditions or otherwise. Use of the Tickets and attendance at any game are governed by (i) the Arena policies, including security, health and safety, alcohol and appropriate conduct policies (including the Code of Conduct attached hereto as Schedule B hereto) (the “Arena Policies”) and (ii) applicable laws, including without limitation laws governing consumer protection and the purchase and sale of tickets.

6.             The Member acknowledges that their Tickets may be subject to certain disclaimers set out in Schedule C hereto.   The Member’s Ticket invoice shall reference by number the disclaimer(s) that apply to their Tickets.

7.             The Member acknowledges and agrees that the Tickets being purchased hereunder are solely for the preseason and regular season Team games specified in the associated invoice and for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include tickets, to any other event or game, including, without limitation, any National Basketball League (“NBA”) All Star event, neutral site game, outdoor game, or playoff game (each a “League Special Event”), held in the Team’s market or hosted by the NBA at the Arena or otherwise in which the Team participates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Member is a Traditional Member (i) MLSE will make reasonable efforts to secure the Member an opportunity to purchase an equivalent number of tickets for any Team home game that is relocated to an alternate venue for the purposes of playing a League Special Game, and (ii) the Member will have the first right to purchase home playoff tickets corresponding to the rights specified in the Member’s Ticket package for games played at the Arena at the price(s), by the deadline(s) and upon such other terms and conditions as may be established by MLSE in its sole discretion, provided that if the Member declines to purchase playoff tickets on such terms and conditions, MLSE may sell such playoff tickets, or otherwise utilize the seats for such playoff games, as MLSE sees fit. MLSE may extend the foregoing benefits to Commercial Reseller Members in MLSE’s sole discretion.

8.             The Member acknowledges and agrees that the Team and/or NBA may cancel, postpone, reschedule or relocate games included in the Member’s Ticket package for any reason, as determined in its/their sole discretion, as well as modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any aspect of the rules, operations and presentations of NBA games (“Preemption”).

9.             In the event that a Team game or event for which Tickets have been sold to the Member is not played or presented in the Arena for any reason, including, without limitation, Preemption, such event shall in no way be deemed, argued or construed to be a breach by MLSE of any term, condition, agreement or any other duty or obligation in connection with the sale and use of these Tickets. In such event the Member shall have its membership account credited with an amount representing the amount of the stated face value of the Ticket, less the portion of any discount allocable to that Ticket as a result of the Ticket having been purchased as part of a Member Ticket package. Unless other arrangements are agreed between MLSE and the Member, the credited funds shall, where applicable, be held by MLSE and applied, at the direction of the Member, to the Member’s purchase of playoff Tickets (if applicable) in the season in which the cancelled game(s) occurred and/or to the Member’s renewal of a regular season Ticket package in the subsequently played Season. If the Member elects not to purchase playoff Tickets and/or does not renew its Ticket package for the subsequent season, the amount of the credit will be refunded following the Ticket renewal deadline or applied to the purchase of other ticket products, if requested. No interest or rebate will accrue on the amount of the credit at any time, unless MLSE determines otherwise in its sole discretion. The Member hereby waives and releases any and all claims it may have against MLSE and/or the NBA with respect to such game or event not played or presented in the Arena.

10.             MLSE reserves the right to relocate the seats in the Member’s Ticket package occasionally during the regular season and at any time during the playoffs due to broadcast, NBA and/or Arena security or health and safety requirements. If such a relocation is required, MLSE will endeavor to relocate the Member (or the individual using any of the Member’s Tickets) to seats in a substantially similar or better location within the Arena.

11.             A Member may be determined to be a Commercial Reseller Member by MLSE in its sole discretion at any time. MLSE shall provide written notice to a Member in the event such Member is determined to be a Commercial Reseller Member. Accounts belonging to Commercial Reseller Members will not be eligible to receive certain Membership Privileges (defined below) including, without limitation, preferred pricing, flexible payment options and/or additional member gifting opportunities.

12.             The Member’s Ticket rights and such other privileges as may be extended by MLSE from time to time (the “Membership Privileges”) remain subject at all times to the compliance of the Member (and, with respect to (ii) – (iv), of each individual using any of the Member’s Tickets from time to time): (i) with these Terms and Conditions; (ii) with the Arena Policies; (iii) with all applicable laws including, without limitation, laws governing consumer protection and the purchase and sale of tickets; and (iv) with the Ticket Back Terms, in each case as the same may be established, enacted, modified, amended, supplemented or restated as applicable from time to time. MLSE reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate a membership (and the Member’s Ticket rights and Membership Privileges), to temporarily suspend the Member’s Ticket rights or Membership Privileges, to withdraw or restrict access to Membership Privileges, to refuse to sell additional Ticket package(s) to the Member, or to not offer to renew the Member’s Ticket package(s), if MLSE (acting reasonably) determines that there has been a breach of these Terms and Conditions on the part of the Member or the individual using the Member’s Tickets, as applicable.

13.             MLSE reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to amend these Terms and Conditions from time to time upon written notice to the Member. MLSE will maintain a current copy of these Terms and Conditions on the member portal which can be accessed at www.mlse.com/membertermsandconditions.

14.             MLSE reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to extend optional Member promotional offers (“Promotional Offers”). Promotional Offers will be communicated to the Member at least thirty (30) days in advance of the Season(s) (as defined below) to which such Promotional Offer(s) apply. Promotional Offers may be subject to such additional terms and conditions as communicated by MLSE. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Promotional Offer and these Terms and Conditions, the terms of the Promotional Offer shall govern.

15.             If the Member or any Ticket user is ejected for any reason from a game or event in respect of which a ticket has been issued to the Member or otherwise acquired, MLSE reserve the right, in MLSE’s sole discretion, to revoke the Membership related to such ticket.

16.             MLSE’s acceptance of payment for a Membership from any individual or entity who is not the account holder for such Membership does not grant any rights to such Membership to such individual or entity. Any rights or privileges associated with a Membership belong only to the account holder of record as entered on MLSE’s records. MLSE reserve the right to require that any transaction pertaining to a Membership held in a corporate name be supported by appropriate corporate resolutions or other documents.

1.              Payment Authorization. The Member understands that by selecting a ticket package, the Member gives MLSE authorization to bill the Member for the Member’s Tickets in accordance with the selected payment plan. For all Member Tickets payments, this payment authorization shall remain in effect for so long as the Member’s account remains in good standing with MLSE. The Member hereby represents and warrants to MLSE that it has the authority to approve charges in accordance with the listed payment information for the purpose of paying for the Tickets. The Member understands and agrees that MLSE is not liable in any way for erroneous billing statements or incorrect charges, and that in the event of such a billing error, MLSE’s only responsibility is to correct it if and when MLSE receives written notice of the error. The Member understands that all deposits and/or payments made are non-refundable. The Member understands that it is the sole responsibility of the Member to ensure that its payment information is correct and current and to notify MLSE in writing of any errors, deficiencies or changes such that the payment information may be updated, and that the Member’s failure to do so within the specified time frame may result in a suspension or loss of Tickets and/or Membership Privileges at the sole discretion of MLSE. MLSE reserves the right to charge a processing fee of CAD$50.00 in the event a payment is refused for any reason. All payments are due on the dates specified regardless of game cancellations or rescheduling – refunds will be addressed in accordance with the applicable policy in effect at that time for the applicable game.

2.              Payment Plan Options for Traditional Members. Traditional Members will, unless otherwise communicated by MLSE, have the option of three payment plans:

a.      Annual Plan: This plan allows the Traditional Member to pay 100% of the cost of its Tickets for the following Season on or before the First Payment Date (as set out in the Notice). This payment may be made using Visa, Mastercard, or American Express (each a “Credit Card”), or electronic funds transfer.

These monthly payments may be made by Credit Card only.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, MLSE reserves the right to make modifications to the payment plan options (e.g., modify the payment dates, modify the number of payments, etc.) as may be required to align with scheduling changes to a Season. In such event, MLSE shall notify the Traditional Member of any such changes and the Traditional Member shall have thirty (30) days to select a payment plan from those made available by MLSE for the affected Season.

If the Commercial Reseller Member wishes to select a different payment plan at the start of a subsequent Season, the Member may do so by informing MLSE Service Team prior to the First Payment Date for the following Season provided that no change in a payment plan will be effective until it is confirmed in writing by MLSE.

4.              Failure to Make Payments. If a Member enrolled in the Annual Plan or Semi-Annual Plan misses a payment, and the payment remains outstanding for ten (10) or more business days, MLSE may suspend or terminate the Member’s account. If a Member enrolled in the Monthly Payment Plan fails to make a scheduled payment three (3) times in a Season, MLSE may suspend or terminate the Member’s account. If a Member on an MLSE approved alternate payment plan misses a scheduled payment, and the payment remains outstanding for ten (10) business days, MLSE may suspend or terminate the Member’s account.

In the event that MLSE terminates the Member’s account, MLSE will provide written notice to the Member. If a Member’s Credit Card on file is declined for a given payment for any reason, MLSE will re-run the Credit Card 24 hours later, and again 48 hours after the payment was initially declined. MLSE will make all reasonable attempts by email and/or telephone to request that the payment information be updated.  If after five (5) business days, a payment has not been made, the barcodes for the Member’s Tickets shall be suspended for all future games.  Please note, no refund will be issued for any games missed during this suspension.



5.             Automatic Payment Plan. In connection with the Member’s purchase of the Tickets for the upcoming Season, the Member is subject to an automatic payment plan (the “Payment Program”). Through the Payment Program, the Member will, unless otherwise communicated by MLSE, have its Tickets automatically renewed for the upcoming Season on the relevant First Payment Date, until such time as the Member or MLSE chooses not to renew the membership.

6.             Membership Deposit. MLSE may, in its sole discretion, require in advance of a Season the payment by the Member of a membership deposit (“Deposit”). If so required, MLSE will provide the Member with at least thirty (30) days advanced notice of (i) the Deposit amount, (ii) the date on which the Deposit payment is required, and (iii) any additional relevant Deposit information. The Deposit is to be made by the Member and will not be completed automatically by MLSE. MLSE will make reasonable attempts by email and/or telephone the Member to request that the Member complete payment of the Deposit on time.

Following payment of the Deposit, MLSE shall provide the Member with at least thirty (30) days advance notice of the amount and payment dates for the balance of the Member’s ticket package. The remaining balance of the Member’s ticket package will, unless otherwise communicated by MLSE, be processed automatically in accordance with the Member’s selected payment plan. To ensure that the balance of the Member’s ticket package can be properly processed, a Member may be required by MLSE to select a preferred method of payment and/or payment plan.

7.             Notice. MLSE may provide each Member with written notice at least thirty (30) days in advance of each upcoming renewal date (the “Notice”). The Notice shall include: (i) the relevant renewal date (the “First Payment Date”); (ii) new Tickets pricing; (iii) any Promotional Offers; (iv) any material changes to these Terms and Conditions; and (v) the method for the Member to indicate its desire not to renew its membership.

In addition, these terms and any disputes between you and the Arena, Team, and/or NBA will be governed by the laws of the province of Ontario without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the provincial and federal courts of Toronto, Ontario shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any disputes between you and the Arena, Team, and/or NBA (except for disputes brought in small claims court) that are not subject to arbitration. You have the right to opt out of arbitration under these Terms by sending the Team a personally signed, written notice of your decision to opt out via email to 50 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario, M5J2L2, Attn: General Counsel within thirty (30) days of purchase of your ticket. Such an opt out will not opt you out of an arbitration agreement you might otherwise have with the Arena, Team, and/or NBA.

5.    The Holder agrees not to create, transmit, distribute, misappropriate or sell (or aid in creating, transmitting, distributing, misappropriating or selling), in any media now or hereafter existing, any description, account (whether text, data or visual, and including (without limitation) play-by-play data), picture, photograph, image, video, audio, livestream or other form of exploitation or reproduction of the Event (collectively, “Event Works”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder agrees that by causing this ticket to be scanned upon entry, the Holder shall be deemed to have signed the ticket and granted to the Team and NBA an exclusive worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, sub-licensable, royalty-free license to all rights associated with any Event Works.

6.    This ticket and the Holder’s admission to the Arena are subject to all safety and health requirements and policies relating to the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and any resulting disease (together with any mutation, adaptation or variation thereof, collectively, “COVID-19”) put in place by the Team, NBA, and Arena, including any such policies and requirements described in the Supplemental Terms (collectively, the “Safety Requirements”).

8.    To ensure that all Event patrons agree to, and comply with, all Safety Requirements and all other NBA, Team and Arena rules, this ticket may not be resold or offered for resale on any platform other than a platform expressly authorized by the Team or the NBA. Without limiting the foregoing, any transfer of this ticket to any person who fails to satisfy any Safety Requirement may be voided by the Team and this ticket cancelled.

9.    Breach of any of these terms, failure to comply with Safety Requirements or NBA, Team and/or Arena rules, or the refunding to the Holder of the Face Value, shall automatically terminate any rights that the Holder may have hereunder; shall render illegal and unauthorized the Holder’s use of the ticket for any purpose; and shall authorize the Team and/or the NBA to withdraw the ticket, refuse admission to the Arena, or eject the Holder from the Arena, without refund or credit in each case, and subject the Holder to all legal remedies available to the NBA, Team and/or Arena.

10.   THE HOLDER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AN INHERENT RISK OF EXPOSURE TO COVID-19 EXISTS IN ANY PLACE WHERE PEOPLE GATHER AND THAT NO PRECAUTIONS (INCLUDING THE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS DESCRIBED ABOVE) CAN ELIMINATE THE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO COVID-19.
