TENREHTE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

STANDARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

  1. Offer and Acceptance

Tenrehte Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“TENREHTE”) offers to perform certain consulting, design, development, or other services for Buyer in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein (“TERMS”). Acceptance of this offer is expressly limited to such TERMS. TENREHTE hereby objects to and rejects any additional or different terms proposed by Buyer, including those contained in Buyer’s purchase order, unless TENREHTE expressly agrees to such terms in writing. Each of TENREHTE and Buyer is sometimes referred to in this contract as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” For purposes of this contract, “Personnel” means collectively TENREHTE or any of its employees, representatives, agents, contractors, or subcontractors.

  1. Services and Fees

As an independent contractor and general consultant, TENREHTE agrees to perform for Buyer certain consulting, design, development, or other services, for which the Parties may elect to define a set of deliverables (collectively the "SERVICES") as the parties may from time to time agree and specify in a Professional Services Agreement (“PSA”), a Statement of Work (“SOW”), or Purchase Order (each a "WORK ORDER") incorporating these TERMS by reference. This contact shall become effective, final and binding once the WORK ORDER is executed by both Parties (“Effective Date”).

Unless otherwise indicated in a WORK ORDER, all SERVICES will be provided on a time and materials basis, and each WORK ORDER may contain estimates of the time and materials needed for performing the SERVICES, and associated fees for completion of the SERVICES (“ESTIMATES”). Such ESTIMATES will reflect a reasonable estimate of total fees for the SERVICES and not a fixed price, and TENREHTE will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the SERVICES within the ESTIMATES specified in any WORK ORDER agreed to by the Parties.

Buyer agrees to pay TENREHTE all fees indicated in the WORK ORDER. All fees paid are non-refundable. Each party agrees to cooperate reasonably and in good faith with the other in the performance of the SERVICES and acknowledges that delays may otherwise result. Any changes to the scope of work under a WORK ORDER shall be made by written change order or amendment to the WORK ORDER signed by an authorized representative of each party prior to implementation of such changes. Buyer acknowledges that such changes to the scope of work under a WORK ORDER may impact: (i) the WORK ORDER schedule, (ii) the WORK ORDER fees charged by TENREHTE, and (iii) other relevant factors.

  1. Reimbursement of Expenses.

Buyer agrees to pay TENREHTE its actual out of pocket expenses as reasonably incurred by TENREHTE in furtherance of its performance of the SERVICES, such expenses to include, travel by the TENREHTE to Buyer’s facilities in furtherance of SERVICES, and any design tools, development boards and the like TENREHTE acquires to complete the SERVICES, provided that TENREHTE shall obtain Buyer’s prior written consent for such additional expenses that exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000). TENREHTE agrees to provide Buyer with access to such receipts, ledgers, and other records as may be reasonably appropriate for Buyer or its accountants to verify the amount and nature of any such expenses.

  1. Price

TENREHTE’s price in effect at the time TENREHTE receives Buyer’s purchase order shall continue to apply for a term of (3) months. Otherwise TENREHTE shall have the right and Buyer shall have the obligation to renegotiate the price of all SERVICES not yet invoiced, and if an agreement is not reached, TENREHTE shall have the right to terminate this contract without liability.

If the price of fuels, metals, raw materials, equipment or other such costs increases significantly, TENREHTE shall have the right and Buyer shall have the obligation to renegotiate the price of all SERVICES not yet invoiced, and if an agreement is not reached, TENREHTE shall have the right to terminate this contract without liability.

  1. Accuracy of Information

To the extent TENREHTE provides SERVICES information, TENREHTE attempts to be as accurate as possible. However, TENREHTE does not warrant the accuracy of SERVICES descriptions, SERVICES price, SERVICES availability or other information on its websites, sales brochures, or other matter as accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. Furthermore, in the event that SERVICES are mistakenly listed at an incorrect price, TENREHTE reserves the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for such SERVICES, regardless of whether the order has been confirmed or Buyer is charged. If Buyer has already been charged for the purchase and Buyer’s order is cancelled, arrangements will be made to issue a credit to Buyer in the amount of the incorrect price.

  1. Title and Delivery

Shipments inside the U.S. shall be delivered FOB TENREHTE’s shipping dock. Shipments outside the U.S. shall be delivered FCA (Incoterms 2000) TENREHTE’s shipping dock. Title and liability for loss or damage shall pass to Buyer upon TENREHTE’s delivery to Buyer’s designated carrier. Any subsequent loss or damage shall not relieve Buyer from its obligations. Buyer shall reimburse TENREHTE for insurance and transportation costs on international shipments and shall be responsible for all import duties, taxes and any other expenses incurred or licenses or clearances required. TENREHTE may deliver SERVICES in installments. Delivery dates are estimates. TENREHTE shall not be liable for any damage, losses or expenses incurred by Buyer if TENREHTE fails to meet the estimated delivery dates.

  1. Payment Terms
  1. Buyer agrees to pay TENREHTE a down payment of thirty percent (30%) of the total SERVICES fees; such down payment is due in full before any SERVICES are started. SERVICES requiring material expenses may incur a substantially higher down payment.
  2. For the balance of the SERVICES fees after down payment, if TENREHTE extends credit to Buyer, payment terms shall be net thirty (30) days after TENREHTE’s invoice. TENREHTE may change or withdraw credit amounts or payment terms at any time for any reason. If the SERVICES are delivered in installments, Buyer shall pay for each installment in accordance with the above payment terms. If Buyer fails to make any payment when due, TENREHTE may suspend or cancel performance under any agreements in which TENREHTE has extended credit to Buyer. TENREHTE’s suspension of performance may result in rescheduling delays. If, in TENREHTE’s judgment, Buyer’s financial condition does not justify the payment terms specified herein, then TENREHTE may terminate this contract unless Buyer immediately pays for all products that have been delivered and pays in advance for all products to be delivered. Termination in accordance with this clause shall not affect TENREHTE’s right to pursue any other available remedies.
  3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if Buyer fails to make any payment when due, TENREHTE will add a service charge at the rate of 1.5% per month (18% per year) or the maximum legal rate, whichever is less, to unpaid invoices from the due date thereof. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that if TENREHTE retains a collection agency or attorney to collect unpaid amounts, TENREHTE may invoice Buyer for, and Buyer will pay, all reasonable costs of collection, including without limitation reasonable attorney's fees.
  4. Buyer may make a direct bank (“wire”) transfer. Wire transfers must be complete before a Buyer’s order can be released. Wire transfers may incur additional administrative costs to process and service the Buyer’s order. Wire transfers may incur additional time to process and service the Buyer’s order.
  5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Buyer’s outside the United States must remit payment in advance using wire transfer. Wire transfers must be complete before a Buyer’s order can be released. Wire transfers may incur additional administrative costs to process and service the Buyer’s order. Wire transfers may incur additional time to process and service the Buyer’s order.
  6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, remittances will be received by a bank simply as clearing agency. The receiving bank has no authority to determine whether or not the amount remitted constitutes payment in full. Remittances marked to indicate payment in full will be deposited by the bank not with standing such markings and such deposit shall not indicate TENREHTE’s acceptance of the remittance as payment in full unless the remittance actually constitutes payment of all sums owed.
  1. Taxes

Prices do not include applicable taxes or duties. Buyer is solely responsible for paying all applicable taxes and duties. TENREHTE will add sales taxes to the sales price where required by applicable law, and Buyer will pay such taxes unless Buyer provides TENREHTE with a duly executed sales tax exemption certificate. If Buyer is required by law to withhold any amount of tax from its payment to TENREHTE, Buyer shall promptly pay such amount to the appropriate tax authority and take all reasonable steps to minimize such withholding tax.

As an independent contractor and general consultant, Personnel are not Buyer employees. Buyer shall not take any action or provide Personnel with any benefits or commitments inconsistent with any of such undertakings by TENREHTE. In particular: (i) Buyer will not withhold FICA (Social Security) from TENREHTE payments; (ii) Buyer will not make state or federal unemployment insurance contributions on behalf of TENREHTE or Personnel; (iii) Buyer will not withhold state and federal income tax from payment to TENREHTE; (iv) Buyer will not make disability insurance contributions on behalf of TENREHTE; and (v) Buyer will not obtain workers’ compensation insurance on behalf of TENREHTE or Personnel.

  1. Contingencies

TENREHTE shall not be in breach of this contract and shall not be liable for any non-performance or delay in performance if such non-performance or delay is due to a force majeure event or other circumstances beyond TENREHTE’s reasonable control, including but not limited to, shortages of labor, energy, fuel, machinery or materials, technical or yield failures, war, civil unrest, any government act, law or regulation, including any judicial order or decree, any communication or power failure, labor dispute, natural disaster, fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, terrorist act or Act of God.

  1. Representations and Warranties
  1. Each Party hereby warrants to the other Party that it possesses the full right, power and authority to enter into this contract.
  2. TENREHTE warrants that the SERVICES shall be performed by qualified Personnel in a professional manner conforming to generally accepted industry standards and practices. TENREHTE represents that TENREHTE has the qualifications and ability to perform the SERVICES without the advice, control or supervision of Buyer. TENREHTE shall have sole discretion and control of TENREHTE’s work and the manner in which it is performed.
  3. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS CONTRACT, THE SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY TENREHTE UNDER THE WORK ORDER AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS AND INFORMATION PROVIDED BY TENREHTE TO BUYER ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TENREHTE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TENREHTE DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY PERSONS OTHER THAN TENREHTE. BUYER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY OTHER MATERIALS AND INFORMATION PROVIDED BY TENREHTE TO BUYER MAY HAVE DEFECTS OR ERRORS WHICH WILL NOT BE CORRECTED BY TENREHTE, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS NOT SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH HEREIN.
  4. Safety-Critical, Military and Automotive Applications

TENREHTE SERVICES are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TENREHTE SERVICES would reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing such use. Buyer shall fully indemnify TENREHTE and its representatives against any damages arising out of the unauthorized use of TENREHTE SERVICES in such safety-critical applications.

TENREHTE SERVICES are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TENREHTE SERVICES are specifically designated by TENREHTE as military-grade or certified for aerospace operation. Only SERVICES designated by TENREHTE as military-grade meet military specifications. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any such use of TENREHTE SERVICES which TENREHTE has not designated as military-grade is solely at the Buyer’s risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.

TENREHTE SERVICES are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TENREHTE SERVICES are designated by TENREHTE as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. In any case of such use of non-designated SERVICES, TENREHTE will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS 16949 requirements.

Buyer represents that it has all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of its applications, and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning its products and any use of TENREHTE SERVICES in Buyer’s applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TENREHTE.

  1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, SERVICES resulting in the release of (i) SOFTWARE PRODUCTS, (ii) EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS, (iii) PROTOTYPE PRODUCTS, (iv) DEVELOPMENT PRODUCTS, and (v) PRE-PRODUCTION PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” TENREHTE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING SUCH SOFTWARE PRODUCTS AND EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS AND PROTOTYPE PRODUCTS AND DEVELOPMENT PRODUCTS AND PRE-PRODUCTION PRODUCTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
  1. Limitations and Damages Disclaimer

IN NO EVENT SHALL TENREHTE’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FROM ANY WARRANTY, INDEMNITY, OR OTHER OBLIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS CONTRACT, OR ANY USE OF ANY TENREHTE PRODUCT PROVIDED HEREUNDER, EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID TO TENREHTE FOR THE PARTICULAR SERVICES SOLD UNDER THIS CONTRACT WITH RESPECT TO WHICH LOSSES OR DAMAGES ARE CLAIMED, OR THE SUM OF $10,000.00, WHICHEVER IS LESS. THE EXISTENCE OF MORE THAN ONE CLAIM AGAINST THE PARTICULAR WORK ORDER SOLD TO BUYER UNDER THIS CONTRACT SHALL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THIS LIMIT.

  1. BUYER UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING LIABILITY LIMITATIONS ARE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF THIS CONTRACT AND THAT IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH LIMITATIONS THE MATERIAL AND ECONOMIC TERMS OF THIS CONTRACT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT.
  1. CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE
  1. As used in this Section 10.1, the term “CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION” shall mean any information disclosed by one Party to the other pursuant to this contract which is in written, graphic, machine readable or other tangible form and is marked “Confidential”, “Proprietary” or in some other manner to indicate its confidential nature. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION may also include oral information disclosed by one Party to the other pursuant to this contract or the WORK ORDER, provided that such information is designated as confidential at the time of disclosure and is reduced to writing by the disclosing Party within a reasonable time (not to exceed thirty (30) days) after its oral disclosure, and such writing is marked in a manner to indicate its confidential nature and delivered to the receiving Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing designation requirements, Intellectual Property identified in the WORK ORDER as TENREHTE Intellectual Property shall be deemed to be CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of TENREHTE, and Intellectual Property identified in the WORK ORDER as Buyer Intellectual Property shall be deemed CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of Buyer. The confidentiality obligations of this Contract shall be in addition to any other confidentiality obligations between the Parties.
  2. Each Party shall treat as confidential all CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of the other Party, shall not use such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION except as set forth herein, and shall not disclose such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION to any third party, except as expressly permitted in this Contract. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties shall use at least the same degree of care which it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of like importance to prevent the disclosure of CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed to it by the other Party under this Contract, provided, however, that in no event shall such degree of care be less than reasonable in light of general industry practice.
  3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall have liability to the other with regard to any CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of the other which: (i) was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed or becomes in the public domain through no fault of the receiver (CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public); (ii) was known to the receiver, without restriction, at the time of disclosure as shown by the files of the receiver in existence at the time of disclosure; (iii) is disclosed with the prior written approval of the discloser; (iv) was independently developed by the receiver without any use of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; (v) becomes known to the receiver, without restriction, from a source other than the discloser without breach of this Contract by the receiver; or (vi) is disclosed pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided, however, that the receiver shall provide prompt notice thereof to enable the discloser to seek a protective order to otherwise prevent such disclosure.
  4. Each Party shall use all reasonable efforts, including, but not limited to, the execution of proprietary non-disclosure agreements with employees and consultants, to enforce compliance with the provisions of this Section 10 by its directors, officers, employees, and any third party having access to the other Party’s CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
  5. Each Party agrees to notify the other promptly in writing of the existence of any circumstances surrounding unauthorized access, disclosure, distribution, possession, alteration, transfer, reproduction or use of the other Party’s CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION or any portions thereof.

The ownership rights to the Other Developments provided under this section are subject to payment in full by Buyer to TENREHTE of all fees and expenses due hereunder for the SERVICES.

Any cancellation or rescheduling of SERVICES by Buyer may result in a charge to Buyer. Such charge, if any, shall be reasonably determined by TENREHTE based on factors such as whether TENREHTE acquired or allocated particular Personnel, supplies or equipment to meet Buyer’s order and such other factors as reasonably determined by TENREHTE.

  1. Non-Solicitation of Personnel

During the term of this contract and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Buyer will not solicit for hire or engagement, or cause others to solicit for hire or engagement, directly or indirectly, as an employee or independent contractor, any Personnel involved in the performance of SERVICES under this contract.

  1. Non-waiver of Default

In the event of any default by Buyer, TENREHTE may cease work immediately and suspend its obligations to perform the SERVICES. If TENREHTE elects to continue the SERVICES, TENREHTE’s action shall not constitute a waiver of any such default or affect TENREHTE’s legal remedies for any such default.

  1. Governing Law

This contract shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to conflict-of-laws principles. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this contract to be unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible to effectuate the intent of the parties, and the remainder of this contract will continue in full force and effect.
