TERMS

By purchasing or financing the equipment listed on page 1 (collectively, “Products”), Purchaser hereby agrees to the preceding and following terms (collectively, the “Terms”).

1. ACCEPTANCE. All sales are subject to availability of Products. Seller may accept or
reject this agreement and will not be required to give any reason for rejection. Seller rejects
any terms submitted by Purchaser not contained herein. Purchaser may issue a purchase
order for administrative purposes only, and any terms in any purchase order are rejected, not
binding on Seller, and are of no force.
2. TAXES. Purchaser agrees to pay all taxes, assessments, licenses, and governmental
charges of any kind resulting on account of Purchaser’s purchase, possession, or use of
Products.
3. FINANCING. If Purchaser finances Products, Seller’s acceptance of this agreement is
subject to the approval of Seller’s or Purchaser’s lender, and Purchaser shall sign any
security agreement and financing statement required by such lender.
4. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION. On Seller’s request, Purchaser shall, at its sole
expense, sign and deliver all such further documents and instruments, and take all such
further acts, necessary to give full effect to this agreement or otherwise required by Seller. If
Purchaser fails to sign and deliver such documents or instruments to Seller, the entire
balance of the purchase price will, upon Seller’s tender of performance and at Seller’s option,
become immediately due and payable.
5. SECURITY INTEREST. To secure Purchaser’s prompt and complete payment of any
present and future indebtedness of Purchaser to Seller under this agreement, or any
document or instrument signed in connection with this agreement, Purchaser hereby grants
Seller a security interest, in Products, wherever located, whether now existing or hereafter
arising from time to time, and all accessions thereto and replacements or modifications
thereof, as well as all proceeds (including insurance proceeds) of the foregoing. Purchaser
acknowledges that the security interest granted under this Section 5 is a purchase-money
security interest under applicable law. Seller may file a financing statement to perfect the
security interest, and Purchaser shall sign any statements or other documents necessary to
perfect Seller’s security interest. Purchaser also authorizes Seller to sign, on Purchaser’s
behalf, statements or other documentation necessary to perfect Seller’s security interest.
Seller may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law.
6. TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS; DELIVERY. Title and risk of loss to Products passes to
Purchaser upon Delivery. “Delivery” occurs upon Seller’s delivery of the Products to the
carrier in the event of shipment, or Purchaser’s receipt of Products at Seller’s location.
7. SHIPMENT. Seller shall deliver Products FOB at the location specified on Page 1.
Purchaser shall pay all shipping charges and insurance costs.
8. INSURANCE. Upon Delivery, and at all times thereafter while there is any balance due
under this agreement, Purchaser shall, at its own expense, have and keep Products insured
against loss by fire, theft, collision, vandalism, and any other hazard as Seller may require by
an insurance company acceptable to Seller and in an amount no less than the balance due
under or in connection with this agreement. On Seller’s request, Purchaser shall provide
Seller with a certificate of insurance from Purchaser’s insurer evidencing the coverages
specified in this Section. Purchaser shall provide Seller with 10 business days’ advance
notice in the event of cancellation or a material change in its policy.
9. BILL AND HOLD. If Purchaser requests to be billed prior to Delivery, in its sole
determination, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary herein, Purchaser assumes all
risk of ownership and liability for Products as of the date of the invoice, including insuring
Products in accordance with Section 8. Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless, and
defend Seller and its parent, officers, directors, partners, members, shareholders,
employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and permitted assigns against any loss or damage
to Products between the invoice date and the date and time of Delivery. Purchaser
acknowledges, other than Delivery, the transaction with respect to Products is complete, and
there are no outstanding obligations preventing Delivery.
10. DAMAGES; MAXIMUM LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER BE LIABLE FOR
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, ENCHANCED, INDIRECT, OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES, OR DIMINUTION OF VALUE,
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR PRODUCTS, REGARDLESS
OF: (A) WHETHER THE DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE; (B) WHETHER OR NOT
SELLER WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES; AND (C) THE LEGAL OR
EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ON WHICH THE CLAIM IS
BASED. IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR PRODUCTS, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE TOTAL
OF THE AMOUNTS PAID TO SELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE FOREGOING
LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF PURCHASER’S REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
FAIL THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
11. WARRANTY LIMITATIONS. Limited Warranties do not apply where Products: (a) are
subjected to abuse, misuse, neglect, negligence, accident, improper testing, improper
installation, improper handling, abnormal physical stress, abnormal environmental
conditions, or use contrary to any instructions issued by Seller or manufacturer; (b) have
been reconstructed, repaired, or altered by any persons other than Seller or its authorized
representative; or (c) have been used with any third-party product, hardware, or product that
has not been previously approved in writing by Seller. Notwithstanding anything in this
agreement to the contrary, Seller’s liability under any Limited Warranty is discharged, in
Seller’s sole discretion and at its expense, by repairing or replacing any defective Products,
or crediting or refunding the price of any defective Products, less any applicable discounts,
rebates, or credits.

Property Rights under this agreement. If Purchaser acquires any Intellectual Property
Rights in or relating to any Products by operation of law or otherwise, these rights are
deemed and are hereby irrevocably assigned to manufacturer or its licensors, as the
case may be, without further action by either party.
16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. Purchaser may not revoke its purchase of

17. FORCE MAJEURE. Seller will not be liable to Purchaser, and will not be deemed

emergencies, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances, delays in
