TERMS & CONDITIONS

This contract is a Master Lease Agreement (“Lease”) between the above-named Lessee and Kaeser Compressors, Inc. (“Lessor”) with respect to the personal property described above along with any components included therewith (individually an “Item,” and collectively the “Equipment”. Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the Equipment, and the parties mutually agree as follows:
1. Rent. The first rent payment shall be the Access Fee and shall be paid upon execution of this Lease. The Access Fee is non-refundable. Should Equipment need to be right-sized, Lessor will credit or charge to Lessee’s account any reduction or increase, respectively, in the Access Fee for right-sized equipment. Additional rent shall be due on the same date each month following the equipment start-up date during the term of this Lease, and shall be the Hourly Rate times the number of operating hours on the Equipment for the month immediately preceding the date an invoice is generated (minimum monthly billing of 40 hours). Payments shall be due regardless of whether Lessee has received notice of sums due. Lessor will charge the invoiced amount to Lessee and will automatically initiate and process payment within 5-7 days after each invoice date in accordance with the method of payment indicated on Lessee’s account. Lessee shall permit Lessor entry to Lessor’s facility from time to time to measure usage of Equipment.
2. Lease Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on the date of start-up of the Equipment to Lessee or at least 30 days from shipment, whichever is sooner, and continue for 12 consecutive months. The term will automatically renew annually up to 60 months from lease commencement or until the date the Equipment is returned to Lessor, whichever is sooner. Lessee may terminate this Lease at any time by providing 30 days written notice.
3. Insurance. Lessee shall provide, maintain and pay for (a) insurance against the loss or theft of or damage to Equipment, for the full replacement value thereof and in an amount not less than the insurance value set forth above, and naming Lessor as a loss payee, and (b) public liability and property damage insurance naming Lessor as an additional insured. Lessee shall supply a Certificate of Insurance upon Lessor’s request.
4. Title. Title to the Equipment shall remain with Lessor at all times and Lessee shall have no right, title or interest therein except as expressly set forth in this Lease. The Equipment shall remain severable from the Premises and shall not become or be deemed a fixture at the Premises.
5. Loss or Damage. Lessee shall bear the entire risk of loss, theft, destruction of or damage to Equipment from any cause, including without limitation vandalism.
6. Lessee’s Responsibilities. Lessee shall be responsible for all electrical disconnect, discharge piping, connections to the Equipment, proper care and maintenance of the Equipment during the term of the Lease.
7. Maintenance and Repairs. Lessor shall perform all routine maintenance and repairs to Equipment at no cost to Lessee except for damages caused by negligence or improper operation of Equipment by Lessee or its agents or contractors, in which case Lessor shall repair such damages and charge all related costs to Lessee. Lessor will provide up to two weeks’ notice prior to performing routine maintenance and repairs and shall perform same during Lessee’s normal business hours. Lessee acknowledges that Equipment must be offline for a minimum of four hours during normal maintenance and repairs.
8. Right-sizing Equipment. Lessor is entitled to right-size all Equipment selections for performance.
9. Cellular Data Requirement. Cellular data coverage is a requirement of this Lease. If for any reason, wireless or cellular data coverage is not available at the Lessee’s premises at time of startup, this Lease will be terminated and Lessee’s Access Fee will be refunded.
10. NO WARRANTIES BY LESSOR. LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER INCLUDING THE CONDITION OF EQUIPMENT, ITS MERCHANTABILITY OR ITS FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND, AS TO LESSOR, LESSEE LEASES EQUIPMENT “AS IS”. THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THIS WARRANTY IS OUR SERVICE WARRANTY AS DETAILED IN SECTION 11.
11. Service Warranty. Lessor warrants to Lessee, should the Equipment have a component malfunction or failure, Lessor shall promptly initiate measures, at its expense, to repair as quickly as reasonably possible. In the event that Lessor is unable to repair within two hours of the service interruption, Lessee’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be a Service Warranty Reimbursement credit to Lessee’s account in the amount equal to the Service Warranty Reimbursement Rate listed on the Equipment Schedule for each hour after the second full hour of service interruption. Lessee’s maximum credit per occurrence is not to exceed a total Service Warranty Reimbursement of thirty-six hours. Service interruptions as a result of acts of God; earth movement; fire; flood; storm; virus, bacteria, any other infectious agent, disease, contamination; terrorist activity; or any activity involving the use or threatened use of any nuclear, biological, chemical, or radioactive agent, material, device or weapon; modifications to equipment made by Lessee, failure to follow operating instructions, external perils including but not limited to weather, fire, collapse, collision, failure or disruption of any utility service, blocked airways or plant shutdown are specifically excluded from this Service Warranty.
12. Location; Inspection and Photography; Labels. The Equipment shall be delivered to, and shall not be stored at a location other than, Lessee’s address listed above as Lessee’s Stored Location without Lessor’s prior written consent. Lessor shall have the right to inspect and photograph the Equipment at any time during Lessee’s normal business hours, without prior notice to Lessee.
13. Surrender. Upon expiration or termination of the Lease, Lessee shall surrender Equipment to Lessor. Lessor, at its expense, shall arrange for removal and return of all Equipment.

15. Events of Default. Any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Lease:
