Disclaimer and Purchased Representation. There can be no assurance whatsoever that control systems such as the

or shipped by Lynxspring hereunder. Any terms or conditions appearing on any order or confirmation that are

additional terms and conditions.
Delivery of Hardware. Lynxspring will deliver each Hardware component directly to the Purchaser to the address
specified in the shipping instructions on the purchase order received from the Purchaser. Lynxspring reserves
the right to ship Hardware by any means it deems suitable. All shipments are F.O.B. carrier. Purchaser is

Risk of loss shall pass to Purchaser upon Lynxspring's delivery to the carrier.
Delivery of Licensed Materials. Lynxspring will deliver the Licensed Materials directly to the Purchaser
referencing the Purchaser's Customer in an electronic file format by CD-ROM or such other means as determined
by Lynxspring.
Export. Software, including technical data, is subject to U.S. export control laws, including the U.S. Export
Administration Act and its associated regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other
countries. Purchaser agrees to comply strictly with all such regulations and acknowledges that it has the
responsibility to obtain such licenses to export, re-export, or import the Licensed Materials. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Licensed Materials may not be downloaded, used, sold, resold, sublicensed,
diverted, transferred, reshipped, or otherwise exported or re-exported:
-
i. in, into or through any country designated as a terrorist supporting country by the U.S. government or any of its agencies;
-
ii. in, into or through any country which the U.S. has an embargo or with which the U.S. or any of its agencies maintains comprehensive trade controls;
-
iii. to or by a national or resident of the countries described in (i) or (ii); or
-
iv. to or by any party included in the United States Department of Commerce's Denied Persons List, Entity
List or Unverified List; or the United States Department of the Treasury's Specially Designated Nationals,
Specially Designated Global Terrorists, Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers, Specially Designated
Narcotic Traffickers, or Specially Designated Terrorists List; or the United States Department of State's
Designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations or Debarred Persons List; or is otherwise designated by the

Payment and Credit Terms. Payment terms are net-thirty (30) days from date of invoice. If Purchaser fails to pay
amounts when due, late charges of the lesser of one point five percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum allowable
under applicable law shall also become payable to Lynxspring. In addition, failure of Purchaser to fully pay any
fees within sixty (60) days after the applicable due date shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement,
justifying suspension of the performance by Lynxspring under this Agreement, and will be sufficient cause for
immediate termination of this Agreement by Lynxspring. Any such suspension does not relieve Purchaser from
paying past due fees plus interest and in the event of collection enforcement, Purchaser shall be liable for
any costs associated with such collection, including, but not limited to, legal costs, attorneys' fees, court
costs and collection agency fees.
Pricing Policy. Prices published herein are North American List Prices. Prices are subject to change without
notice. Written quotations will be honored for 30 days from the date of quotation or as stated therein. Orders
already entered and unshipped on the date of a price change will be invoiced at the prices on the date the order
was received. Published prices are exclusive of standard common carrier freight costs. It is Lynxspring's policy
to add actual freight incurred whether shipped from a Lynxspring regional office or from the home office
manufacturing facility. Published prices do not include any additional services such as design layout, system
drawings, installation drawings, job site labor, shop labor, airfreight or special delivery charges. All labor
and expenses for such services will be charged at the rates prevailing at the time and place of occurrence.
Published prices do not include duties or sales, use, excise or other similar taxes and shall be paid by
Purchaser in addition to the stated price; or in lieu thereof, Purchaser shall provide Lynxspring with required
tax exemption forms.
Returning Hardware. Before returning any Hardware, whether within or outside the Warranty Period, the
Purchaser must contact Lynxspring and obtain a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number by calling
Lynxspring's home office. If Lynxspring verifies the Hardware is defective, it will issue the Purchaser an
RMA number to place on the outer package of the product. Lynxspring is under no obligation to accept any
Hardware without an RMA number on the package. The Purchaser must provide the unit serial number, Project ID,
and complete shipping address where the replacement unit is to be delivered. A purchase order number also is
required and will be used to invoice the Purchaser for the replacement unit if the defective device is not
returned to Lynxspring within 30 days.
Hardware and related installed software may be returned for a restocking fee if it is in an unopened and new
condition. A restocking fee will be charged at 25% of the returned hardware cost and a 75% credit will be
issued upon inspection and validation of the returned device. Software products sold separately may not be
returned for credit.
For in-warranty devices, Lynxspring generally ships advanced replacement units, subject to product availability,
within two business days, prepaid via UPS either standard overnight, 2nd day, 3rd day, or UPS Ground in
accordance with the Purchaser's requirements. When the replacement unit arrives, the Purchaser is to re-pack
the defective unit in the same box in which the replacement unit was shipped , and affix the enclosed, pre-paid
shipping label over the original shipping label. The Purchaser must then take the re-packed box to any
designated UPS drop-off. If Lynxspring does not receive the failed unit within 30 days from the shipment of the
advanced replacement unit, Lynxspring will invoice the Purchaser for the replacement unit at full net price
using the purchase order provided. Lynxspring will provide a 90 day warranty from the date of exchange or the
balance of the original warranty period, whichever is longer.
For out-of-warranty devices, Lynxspring offers advance replacement units under its exchange program, subject
to product availability. A Purchaser's purchase order is required to cover the exchange price and associated
shipping charges. See the current Lynxspring price list for pricing of specific replacement units. If the
failed unit is not received within 30 days after the replacement unit is shipped, Lynxspring will bill the
Purchaser and Purchaser is obligated to pay for the replacement unit at full net price plus shipping charges.
