2. DELIVERY-ONLY SERVICE POLICY

2.1 Delivery-Only Model. Houston Cartworks LLC operates exclusively as a delivery-based rental service. The Company does not maintain a storefront, retail location, or facility for customer pickup under any circumstances. All Equipment is delivered to and retrieved from the Renter's designated delivery address by Company personnel. No exceptions to this policy will be made.

2.2 Service Area. Delivery and retrieval services are available within Harris County, Texas, and approved surrounding counties within the Greater Houston metropolitan area. The Company reserves the right to assess, modify, or decline service to specific addresses based on logistical feasibility, safety, or distance. Delivery availability to a specific address is confirmed only upon issuance of a Booking Confirmation.

2.3 Accurate Delivery Address. The Renter is solely responsible for providing a complete, accurate, and accessible delivery address at the time of booking. If the address provided is incorrect, incomplete, or inaccessible to Company delivery vehicles, the Company shall bear no liability for failed or delayed delivery, and no refund shall be issued. Any rescheduling necessitated by Renter-provided address errors may be subject to additional fees.

2.4 Delivery Windows. Delivery windows are scheduled at the time of booking and confirmed in the Booking Confirmation. The Company will make reasonable efforts to arrive within the agreed delivery window. Minor delays due to traffic, weather, or unforeseen logistical factors do not constitute a breach of this Agreement and do not entitle the Renter to any refund or reduction in Rental Fee.

2.5 Required Presence at Delivery. The Renter, or a designated responsible adult who is at least eighteen (18) years of age, must be physically present at the delivery location at the time of scheduled delivery to: (a) receive and inspect the Equipment; (b) execute or acknowledge this Agreement; and (c) provide a valid government-issued photo identification upon request. Renter must designate any such responsible adult in writing at the time of booking.

2.6 Failed Delivery — Renter Absence or Inaccessibility. If the Company's delivery attempt fails due to: (a) the Renter's or designated adult's absence from the delivery location; (b) the delivery location being inaccessible to Company vehicles or personnel; or (c) any other condition attributable to the Renter, the full Rental Fee shall be charged and no refund shall be issued. The security deposit shall be refunded, less any applicable failed delivery administrative fee as disclosed at booking.

2.7 Right to Refuse Delivery. The Company reserves the right, at its sole and reasonable discretion, to refuse, delay, or cancel a delivery if: (a) the delivery location is deemed unsafe for Company personnel or equipment; (b) the access road or venue is unsuitable for delivery vehicles; (c) conditions at the site pose a risk of damage to the Equipment; or (d) the Company determines that applicable laws or ordinances prohibit delivery to the specified location. In such cases, the Company will make reasonable efforts to notify the Renter promptly, and an appropriate remedy or refund will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

2.8 Delivery and Pickup Fees. All applicable delivery and retrieval fees will be disclosed to the Renter prior to booking confirmation. Delivery and pickup fees are non-refundable once the delivery has been successfully completed or reasonably attempted.

3. ELIGIBILITY & AGE REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Minimum Age to Rent. Only individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years of age may enter into this Agreement as a Renter. By booking Equipment, the Renter represents and warrants that they meet this minimum age requirement.

3.2 Valid Identification. The Renter must present a valid, government-issued photo identification (e.g., driver's license, state ID, or passport) at the time of delivery upon Company request. Failure to produce acceptable identification may result in refusal of delivery without refund of the Rental Fee.

Any operator who is sixteen (16) or seventeen (17) years of age must have a signed parental or legal guardian consent form on file with the Company prior to or at the time of delivery. The Company will provide a consent form template upon request.

3.4 Proof of Age — Verification Right. The Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to require proof of age for both the Renter and any identified or apparent operator at the time of delivery or at any time during the Rental Period. Refusal to provide requested proof of age constitutes grounds for immediate termination of the rental without refund.

3.5 Renter's Responsibility for Operators. The Renter bears full and sole responsibility for ensuring that each and every person who operates the Equipment during the Rental Period meets the minimum age requirements set forth in this Section. The Company shall not be held liable for any violation of this requirement resulting from the Renter's failure to monitor or restrict access to the Equipment.

4. RENTAL RULES & PERMITTED USE

No person shall operate the Equipment while under the influence of alcohol, any controlled substance, prescription or over-the-counter medication that impairs cognitive or motor function, or any other substance that may impair the operator's ability to safely operate the Equipment.

The Company makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee regarding the legality of golf cart use at any specific location.

5.4 No Company Liability for Renter Violations. The Company bears absolutely no responsibility or liability for any fines, citations, penalties, impoundments, or legal consequences arising from the Renter's or any authorized operator's failure to comply with applicable laws governing where and how golf carts may be operated. All such fines, costs, and penalties are the sole responsibility of the Renter.

5.5 Special Municipal Jurisdictions. Renter acknowledges that certain municipalities within and surrounding the Greater Houston area — including but not limited to the City of Galveston, the Clear Lake area, and other communities — may have specific local ordinances regulating the use of golf carts on public streets, beaches, seawalls, or designated paths. It is the Renter's sole responsibility to research, understand, and comply with any such local ordinances applicable to the Renter's intended location of use. The Company expressly disclaims liability for the Renter's failure to comply with any such local regulations.

5.6 Equipment Registration Status. The Renter acknowledges that the Equipment rented from the Company may or may not be registered for on-road use.

The deposit amount applicable to the Renter's specific rental will be disclosed in the booking process and confirmed in the Booking Confirmation.

6.4 Itemized Deductions. If the Company withholds any portion or all of the security deposit, the Company will provide the Renter with a written itemization of all deductions, including a description of each charge and the corresponding amount, within the timeframe set forth in Section 6.3. Such itemization may be delivered via email, text message, or written notice at the Company's discretion.

6.5 Deposit Does Not Cap Liability.The security deposit does not represent a cap or limitation on the Renter's total liability. If the cost of damages, losses, or other charges incurred during the Rental Period exceeds the amount of the security deposit, the Renter remains fully liable for the entire outstanding balance. The Company reserves all rights to pursue recovery of amounts exceeding the deposit through all lawful means, including civil litigation.

7. DAMAGE FEES & RENTER LIABILITY

7.1 Full Liability During Rental Period. The Renter assumes full, exclusive, and unconditional responsibility and liability for all damage, loss, theft, or destruction of the Equipment occurring during the Rental Period, from the moment of delivery through the moment of successful retrieval by Company personnel. This liability applies regardless of fault, negligence, or the identity of the person who caused the damage.

7.2 Damage Fee Schedule. The following fee schedule reflects the Company's standard damage charges. Actual charges may vary based on the specific unit, extent of damage, repair costs, and applicable parts availability.

Reports must be made by phone call or text message to the Company contact number provided at delivery.

7.4 Pre- and Post-Rental Photographic Documentation. The Company photographs all Equipment prior to delivery and after retrieval as a standard part of its rental process. These photographs serve as the primary evidentiary basis for assessing any damage claims. By entering into this Agreement, the Renter acknowledges and agrees that pre-delivery and post-retrieval photographs constitute valid evidence of the condition of the Equipment at the commencement and conclusion of the Rental Period.

7.5 Waiver of Damage Dispute Rights. If the Company's pre-delivery and post-retrieval photographic documentation confirms that damage was sustained during the Rental Period, the Renter expressly waives any right to dispute the existence of such damage and its occurrence during the Rental Period. The Renter retains the right to dispute only the dollar amount assessed for repair or replacement, subject to Company's documented repair invoices or quotes.

7.6 Third-Party Claims. If any damage to the Equipment results in a claim by a third party against the Company, the Renter shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company from and against any and all such claims, losses, damages, costs, and attorneys' fees to the extent arising from the Renter's use or misuse of the Equipment during the Rental Period.

9.8 Cancellation Procedure. All cancellation and reschedule requests must be submitted in writing via email, text message, or through the Company's designated booking platform, and must reference the Renter's booking confirmation number. Verbal cancellations are not accepted. The effective time of cancellation is the time the written notice is received by the Company.

10. RENTAL PERIOD & LATE RETURNS

10.1 Rental Period. The Rental Period is the period expressly specified in the Booking Confirmation. The Renter's right to use and possess the Equipment is strictly limited to the Rental Period. Any continued possession of the Equipment beyond the conclusion of the scheduled Rental Period — without the Company's express written approval — constitutes unauthorized possession and is subject to late return fees as set forth herein.

10.2 Late Return Fees. In the event that the Renter fails to make the Equipment available for retrieval by the Company at the scheduled pickup time, the Renter will be assessed a late return fee of $50.00 per hour, or any fraction thereof, for each hour beyond the scheduled pickup time that the Equipment remains in the Renter's possession without approved extension. Late return fees will be charged to the payment method on file or deducted from the security deposit.

10.3 Retrieval Without Notice. If the Renter is unavailable, unresponsive, or unable to facilitate the timely retrieval of the Equipment at the scheduled pickup time, the Company reserves the right to retrieve the Equipment without prior notice to the Renter, provided the Equipment is located at or near the originally agreed delivery address. An additional retrieval coordination fee may be assessed in such circumstances. The Company shall not be liable for any inconvenience caused by such retrieval.

10.4 Extensions. Rental Period extensions are not guaranteed and are subject to Equipment availability and Company approval. Any request for an extension of the Rental Period must be submitted to the Company in writing (via text message or email) at least two (2) hours prior to the scheduled pickup time. Extension requests submitted after that threshold may be denied at the Company's sole discretion. Approved extensions will be confirmed in writing and will result in additional Rental Fees at the pro-rated daily or hourly rate applicable to the Renter's booking.

10.5 Obligations Survive Late Return. The Renter's obligations under this Agreement — including liability for damage, loss, and compliance with all operational restrictions — continue in full force and effect for any period beyond the scheduled Rental Period during which the Equipment remains in the Renter's possession, whether or not such extended possession is authorized.

11. EQUIPMENT CONDITION & MAINTENANCE

11.1 Delivery Condition. The Company warrants that it will deliver all Equipment in clean, fully operational condition, with batteries fully charged or fuel tank appropriately filled (as applicable to the unit type), and with all standard accessories included as specified in the Booking Confirmation. The Renter or designated adult recipient is responsible for inspecting the Equipment at the time of delivery and noting any pre-existing damage or deficiencies on the delivery form provided by the Company. Failure to note pre-existing conditions at the time of delivery may result in such conditions being attributed to the Renter.

11.2 Renter's Maintenance Obligations. During the Rental Period, the Renter is responsible for:

  • Keeping the Equipment reasonably clean and free from excessive dirt, mud, sand, food, beverages, and debris;

  • Ensuring the Equipment is not left unsecured or unattended in a location that exposes it to risk of theft, vandalism, or weather damage;

  • Returning the Equipment in substantially the same condition as received, subject only to normal wear and tear; and

  • Safeguarding all keys, charger cables, and accessories provided with the Equipment.

11.3 Prohibited Renter Maintenance Activities. The Renter shall not, under any circumstances:

  • Attempt to repair, service, or perform maintenance on the Equipment without the express written authorization of the Company;

  • Attempt to jump-start the Equipment using any external power source not provided or approved by the Company;

  • Charge the Equipment's battery using any charger or charging method other than the charger provided by the Company; or

  • Refuel the Equipment with any fuel type other than what is specified by the Company or indicated on the Equipment.

11.4 Equipment Malfunction or Breakdown. In the event the Equipment experiences a mechanical failure, electrical malfunction, or operational issue during the Rental Period, the Renter must immediately contact the Company by phone at the number provided in the Booking Confirmation. The Renter must not abandon the Equipment at any location other than the designated delivery address. Abandonment of Equipment may result in substantial additional charges, including retrieval fees and any damage resulting from abandonment. The Company will make reasonable efforts to resolve reported malfunctions in a timely manner, but does not guarantee on-site repair capability during the Rental Period.

11.5 Normal Wear and Tear. The Company acknowledges that minor, normal wear incidental to ordinary golf cart use is expected and will not be charged to the Renter. "Normal wear and tear" means superficial, minor soiling from ordinary use that is remedied by routine cleaning, and does not include significant dirt accumulation, staining, structural damage, or damage attributable to prohibited uses.

12. PROHIBITED PERSONS & OPERATOR RESTRICTIONS

12.1 Authorized Operators Only. Only those individuals who are identified and authorized at the time of booking may operate the Equipment. The Renter must disclose at the time of booking all individuals who are expected or likely to operate the Equipment during the Rental Period. The Company may request and record the names of authorized operators.

12.2 No Subleasing or Transfer. The Renter expressly agrees not to sublease, lend, assign, or transfer the Equipment or any right of possession or use thereof to any third party who was not disclosed to the Company at the time of booking. Any undisclosed transfer of possession or use of the Equipment constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.

12.3 Immediate Termination for Violation. Upon discovery of any violation of this Section 12, including but not limited to unauthorized operation, subleasing, or use by a person who does not meet the minimum age requirements, the Company reserves the right to immediately terminate the rental, retrieve the Equipment without advance notice, and forfeit all or part of the Rental Fee. No refund will be issued for early termination resulting from a Renter violation under this Section.

12.4 Renter Liability for Unauthorized Operators. Regardless of whether the Renter was personally present during any unauthorized operation, the Renter remains fully and personally liable for all damage, injury, costs, or legal consequences arising from the operation of the Equipment by any unauthorized person or by any person who does not meet the minimum age requirements set forth in Section 3.

By completing a booking with the Company, the Renter expressly consents to being contacted by the Company via phone call, SMS/text message, and email regarding matters related to the Renter's current or future rental(s), including booking confirmations, delivery updates, damage assessments, and payment notices. This consent is not a condition of any purchase and may be revoked by providing written notice to the Company; however, operational communications related to an active rental may not be suppressible.

13.5 Privacy Policy. For additional information regarding the Company's data practices, please refer to the Company's Privacy Policy, available upon request or on the Company's website.

14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

14.1 Cap on Company Liability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Texas law, the Company's total aggregate liability to the Renter for any claim arising under or related to this Agreement, including claims of Company negligence or breach, shall not exceed the total Rental Fee actually paid by the Renter for the specific Rental Period giving rise to the claim.

14.2 Exclusion of Consequential and Incidental Damages. Under no circumstances shall the Company be liable to the Renter or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from or related to this Agreement or the Renter's use of the Equipment, including but not limited to: loss of enjoyment, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunity, personal inconvenience, or emotional distress. This exclusion applies regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable or the Company was advised of their possibility.

14.3 No Liability for Renter's Legal Non-Compliance. The Company expressly disclaims all liability for any loss, injury, damage, fine, citation, or legal consequence arising from the Renter's failure to comply with applicable federal, state, county, or municipal laws, regulations, or ordinances governing the operation of golf carts or low-speed vehicles, including but not limited to those referenced in Section 5 of this Agreement.

14.5 Indemnification.

15.2 Venue. The exclusive venue for any legal action, proceeding, or litigation arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be the state or federal courts of competent jurisdiction located in Harris County, Texas.
