2. Lease Only — No Ownership Rights

A NextDrive week-by-week lease is a temporary vehicle lease only. A lease is not rent-to-own, not lease-to-own, not financing, not a vehicle sale, and does not provide ownership, title, equity, payoff rights, or purchase rights.

Rent-to-own is separate and must be approved directly by NextDrive under a separate rent-to-own agreement.

3. Eligibility

Lessees must meet all NextDrive and applicable eligibility requirements.

At minimum, lessees must provide:

• Valid driver license
• Accurate lessee information
• Valid payment method
• Proof of active liability insurance when required
• Required protection selection when applicable
• Any documents required by NextDrive

NextDrive may refuse, cancel, or terminate a lease hold if a lessee provides false, expired, incomplete, or unverifiable information.

4. Lease Request Terms

Lease requests are reviewed and approved by NextDrive. Payment rules, verification rules, cancellation rules, protection rules, insurance rules, lease hold details, signed lease agreements, protection provider terms, if any, and claim procedures may also apply.

Week-by-week leases require a 1-month (4-week) minimum commitment unless NextDrive specifically agrees otherwise in writing.

5. Insurance and Financial Responsibility

Lessees must maintain active auto liability insurance or other legally acceptable financial responsibility for the entire lease period.

Damage protection, a damage waiver, or any similar product is not liability insurance unless the written protection terms specifically say otherwise. Any protection product may be limited to physical damage to the leased vehicle only, subject to eligibility, limits, exclusions, and claim rules. It does not cover third-party liability, injuries to others, damage to other vehicles, or damage to other property unless the written terms specifically say otherwise.

NextDrive does not promise that any personal insurance, credit card benefit, protection product, damage waiver, or platform coverage will cover a claim. Lessees remain responsible for all damage, loss, deductibles, excluded losses, uncovered losses, claim denials, third-party claims, and amounts not actually paid by insurance or a protection provider.

6. Payment Authorization

By requesting or leasing a vehicle, lessee authorizes NextDrive and/or its payment processor to charge the payment method on file for lease charges, deposits, protection products, taxes, surcharges, extensions, late fees, cleaning fees, smoking/odor fees, fuel charges, mileage overage, tolls, tickets, towing, impound, storage, recovery, damage, loss of use, administrative fees, deductibles, claim costs, and any other amount owed.

Some charges may be discovered or billed after the lease ends, including tolls, tickets, camera violations, damage, cleaning, smoking/odor, impound, towing, and claim charges.

If a payment method is declined, the lessee remains responsible for the unpaid amount.

7. Vehicle Use

Vehicles must be operated lawfully, safely, and only by approved drivers.

Prohibited uses include:

• Unauthorized drivers
• Driving without a valid license
• Driving under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, drugs, or impairing medication
• Illegal activity
• Racing, drifting, reckless driving, burnouts, stunts, or off-road use
• Towing, pushing, pulling, or hauling unless approved in writing
• Rideshare, delivery, taxi, courier, DoorDash, Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Amazon Flex, or similar work unless approved in writing and properly insured
• Travel outside the approved area or outside the United States without written approval
• Smoking, vaping, marijuana use, or allowing smoke/vape odor in or near the vehicle
• Pets unless approved in writing
• Tampering with GPS, tracking, telematics, immobilizer, license plate, registration, equipment, or vehicle systems
• Subleasing, lending, selling, hiding, abandoning, pledging, or transferring the vehicle

Violation of these rules may void protection coverage and make the lessee responsible for all resulting losses.

8. No Smoking / No Vaping

Smoking, vaping, marijuana use, tobacco use, cigar use, hookah use, and any similar smoke or vapor activity are prohibited inside or near the vehicle.

A violation may include smoke odor, marijuana odor, vape odor, ashes, residue, burns, cigarette/cigar materials, or other evidence consistent with smoking or vaping.

Lessees may be charged for smoking/odor violations, professional cleaning, ozone treatment, detailing, deodorizing, interior repair/replacement, and loss of use while the vehicle is unavailable.

9. Pickup and Return Condition

Lessee must inspect the vehicle at pickup and return it in the same condition received, except ordinary wear from normal permitted use.

Lessee may be required to complete pickup and return photos, video, odometer photos, fuel photos, and condition documentation through NextDrive or another approved process.

If lessee fails to report pre-existing damage before driving away, lessee may be responsible for damage found later unless clear evidence shows the damage was pre-existing.

10. Mileage, Fuel, Tolls, Tickets, and Fees

Lessee is responsible for mileage overage, missing fuel, cleaning, smoke/odor, late return, tickets, tolls, parking violations, camera violations, speeding tickets, red light tickets, towing, impound, storage, lost keys, damaged keys, missing equipment, tire damage, wheel damage, glass damage, and related administrative or processing fees.

Charges may be billed after the lease ends.

11. Damage, Theft, Loss, and Claims

Lessee is responsible for damage, theft, loss, loss of use, diminished value, towing, storage, impound, recovery, claim expenses, administrative expenses, appraisal or estimate fees, diagnostic fees, deductibles, keys, plates, registration, tires, wheels, glass, undercarriage, interior damage, smoke/odor damage, pet damage, biohazard, flood damage, and damage caused by negligent, reckless, prohibited, or unauthorized use.

Lessee must not abandon the vehicle or leave it unsecured.

Lessee must immediately report accidents, theft, vandalism, damage, towing, impound, police contact, warning lights, or unsafe mechanical issues to NextDrive and any protection provider when required.

12. Late Return, Extension, and Failure to Return

Vehicles must be returned by the scheduled lease return date and time unless NextDrive approves an extension in writing before the return deadline.

Payment alone does not guarantee an extension.

If lessee is late, lessee may be charged additional lease charges, late fees, loss of use, recovery costs, and related expenses.

If lessee fails to return the vehicle, refuses to return it, hides it, abandons it, disables communication, disables tracking, converts it, attempts to sell or transfer it, or keeps it beyond the approved period without authorization, NextDrive may treat the vehicle as overdue and may pursue all lawful remedies.

NextDrive may locate, remotely disable, tow, or recover the vehicle where allowed by law and without breach of the peace.

13. GPS, Tracking, and Telematics

Vehicles may be equipped with GPS, telematics, tracking, immobilization, diagnostic, or recovery technology.

Lessee consents to the use of this technology for vehicle location, mileage, maintenance, safety, insurance, theft prevention, recovery, claim investigation, and contract enforcement.

Tampering with, removing, shielding, jamming, disabling, or interfering with GPS, tracking, telematics, plates, or vehicle systems is prohibited.

14. Personal Property

NextDrive is not responsible for personal property left in, on, or around the vehicle. Lessees should remove all belongings before returning the vehicle.

15. Cancellation Policy

Lease cancellation terms may depend on the lease hold details, signed lease agreement, and applicable protection provider terms, if any.

NextDrive uses the cancellation policy shown in the lease hold details or signed lease agreement. Protection products, taxes, add-ons, and service fees may be refunded or withheld according to NextDrive lease terms, the payment processor, or applicable protection provider terms.

16. Electronic Signature and Online Acceptance

Lessee agrees that this transaction may be completed electronically. Electronic signatures, typed names, checkbox acceptance, online acceptance, lease hold confirmation, payment submission, IP address records, timestamps, and e-signature audit records may be used as proof of agreement.

By checking the acceptance box, completing checkout, signing electronically, paying, or taking possession of the vehicle, lessee agrees to these Terms.

17. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by Tennessee law unless applicable law requires a different dispute process.

Unless another venue or process is required by law, any court action between lessee and NextDrive related to a lease shall be filed in the appropriate court located in Shelby County, Tennessee.
