Dear Maurices' customer, We are making some updates to Maurices' Terms of Use that will apply to you and your interactions and/or relationship with Maurices. As a reminder, Maurices' Terms of Use include our Privacy Policy, our Text Message Program Terms and Conditions, and our mRewards Loyalty Program (Collectively, the "Terms"). For new users, these updated Terms will apply upon acceptance of the Terms on or after the Effective Date(s). For existing users like you, the updated Terms will apply as of 5/16/2026, unless you accept the Terms at an earlier date (by, for example, making a purchase or signing up for a program). For a full and complete copy of the new Terms, please visit the updated Terms linked above. A summary of the changes is below:
- We explained that the Terms apply (to the fullest extent authorized by applicable law) to all of your interactions and/or relationship with Maurices;

- We explained that the links we may provide to websites operated by third parties are provided "as is" without any warranties or representations (See Third-Party Services And Content);
- We separated our class action waiver from our arbitration clause and clarified that the class action waiver is not something from which you can opt out (See Class Action Waiver);
- We provided additional details regarding our requirement to resolve disputes between us via arbitration (See Dispute Resolution), including:
- We explained that the "disputes" to which the clause applies are any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Maurices that arise out of your interactions and/or relationship with Maurices (whether online or in a physical store) whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, for which either of us seeks legal recourse, including the validity, enforceability, or scope of the agreement to arbitrate or any portion of it;

- We explained the process for opting-out of our individual arbitration requirement;
- We changed our arbitration provider to National Arbitration and Mediation ("NAM");

- We added provisions creating a process for dealing with a situation in which multiple individual arbitrations (i.e., more than twenty-five) are filed against us by the same attorney or attorneys;
- We explained that the Dispute Resolution clause remains in effect between us even if other agreements are terminated, and that while we may revise the Dispute Resolution clause in the future, those changes cannot make the Dispute Resolution process less favorable to you after a dispute arises;
- We explained that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you or Maurices must start arbitration of a dispute subject to the Dispute Resolution clause within one (1) year from when the dispute first arose unless applicable law specifies a shorter time;
