9. Compliance.  As part of its provision of the Services, DTN is expressly authorized to monitor the use and performance of the Services to ensure compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

1. Delivery.  Delivery of the Equipment will be made F.O.B. DTN’s shipping facility with shipping charges to be paid by Customer.  Unless specifically agreed in writing, all shipments of Equipment shall be to the same address set forth on an Order.  Title and risk of loss or damage in the Equipment passes from DTN to Customer upon the tender of shipment to the applicable carrier at DTN’ shipping facility.  Customer shall pay all shipping charges, insurance, duties and taxes required.  DTN may allocate production and deliveries of the Equipment in its sole and reasonable discretion.  Shipping dates are approximate only.  DTN shall not be liable for any damage, loss, or expense incurred by Customer if DTN fails to meet a specified shipping date.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Customer does not by virtue of this Section 3 (or any Order) acquire any right, title or interest in or to any pre-installed or embedded software in the Equipment, other than the right to use such pre-installed or embedded software solely in the normal operation of the Equipment and in accordance with any license terms for such software.

4. Third-Party Equipment.  If any of the Equipment is identified in an Order as a product manufactured or developed by a party other than DTN (the “Third-Party Equipment”) then such Equipment is being sold or licensed to Customer subject to such third party’s warranties.  Customer acknowledges that DTN merely acquired the Third-Party Equipment for Customer, and that the proprietary and intellectual property rights to the Third-Party Equipment are owned by parties other than DTN.  Customer also acknowledges that, except for the payment to DTN for the Third-Party Equipment, all of Customer’s rights and obligations with respect thereto flow from and to such third parties.  DTN shall provide Customer with copies of all documentation and warranties applicable to Customer’s use of Third-Party Equipment that are provided to DTN. 
5. Lease Terms.  In the event that DTN leases rather than sells the Equipment to Customer, the terms of this Section 3(e) shall apply.

DTN, as lessor, leases the Equipment to Customer for the term set forth in the applicable Order.  With respect to additional items of Equipment hereafter included by an additional exhibit to an existing Order, the term applicable to each such additional exhibit shall be stated therein and, if not stated therein, shall be for the balance of the term of the existing Order for the Equipment.  Title to each item of Equipment shall remain in DTN during the Term of the appropriate period of rental.  In addition to the rights of DTN stated herein, DTN shall have all the rights and remedies available to a secured party and lessor under this Agreement, the Uniform Commercial Code, or other applicable law. 
2. All Equipment shall at all times be and remain personal property regardless of how the same may be affixed to any realty or other property.  DTN shall be permitted to display notice of its ownership of the Equipment by affixing to each item of Equipment an identifying indicia of ownership, at DTN’s discretion.  The Equipment shall be kept only at the location(s) specified in applicable Order at all times during the continuance of the lease.  DTN may, upon reasonable written notice to Customer, inspect the Equipment on Customer’s premises or wherever located. 
3. Customer shall, at its sole expense, have the responsibility for returning to DTN any damaged Equipment to the DTN address set forth below in Section 3(e)(iv).  Customer shall be responsible for the cost of any replacement Equipment as well as any shipping and installation charges for such replacement Equipment.  Notwithstanding the damage to an item of Equipment, the monthly rental fee for such item of Equipment shall continue to be paid by Customer. 
4. In addition to DTN’s other rights and remedies under this Agreement, in the event the leased Equipment is lost, stolen, or not fully returned to DTN, (1) Customer must pay the remaining unpaid rental payments for the Equipment; and (2) DTN reserves the right to also charge a one-time amount of (A) eight hundred United States Dollars ($800.00 USD), or (B) the then-current market value, whichever amount is greater as determined by DTN in its sole and reasonable discretion.  Upon termination or expiration of the rental period applicable to the leased Equipment, and in addition to Customer’s other rights set forth in this Agreement, Customer will promptly return such leased Equipment in proper packaging, ordinary wear and tear excepted, to the following address (which may be updated by DTN by providing written notice to Customer):

3. All amounts payable under this Agreement shall be paid in full without set-off, deduction or other withholding of any amount which may be due to Customer and any charges for incoming and outgoing international money transfers are for the account of Customer.  Should Customer be required by any law or regulation to make any deduction or withholding on account of tax or otherwise or should international money transfer charges become payable on any sum payable under this Agreement, the sum payable shall be increased by the amount of such tax or charges to ensure that DTN receives a sum equal to the amount to be paid under this Agreement.
4. Disputes.  In the event part of an invoice is in dispute, Customer agrees to pay the undisputed portion of the invoice and provide written notice to DTN of any disputed portion within thirty (30) days from the date of invoice; otherwise Customer will be deemed to agree to such charges and DTN will not be subject to making adjustments to charges or invoices.

5. Survival.  In the event of any termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, all provisions of this Agreement whose meaning requires them to survive will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Effects of Termination.  Upon termination, each Party shall (i) immediately destroy or return to the other Party all of such other Party’s Confidential Information then in such Party’s possession, in accordance with Section 6(a); and (ii) promptly certify to the other Party that it has done so.  Termination of this Agreement shall operate to terminate all then-outstanding Orders.  The termination of this Agreement or Order shall not relieve Customer of its liability to pay any amounts due to DTN hereunder.  Upon the termination of this Agreement or any Order, all rights and licenses granted thereunder shall likewise terminate.  In case of Customer’s failure to pay the rental fees when due for any Equipment, or in the event of DTN’s termination of this Agreement or an Order in accordance with Section 8(b) or 8(c), DTN may take possession of the Equipment, with or without process of law (and for this purpose, may enter upon any premises of Customer without liability for suit, action, or other proceeding by Customer and remove the same), and thereupon all of Customer’s rights in the Equipment shall cease and terminate.  Any repossession or resale of any item of Equipment shall not bar an action for a deficiency by DTN against Customer, and the bringing of an action or the entry of judgment against Customer shall not bar DTN’s right to repossess any or all items of Equipment.
9. Indemnification.
1. Customer.  Customer shall defend, indemnify and hold DTN (including its directors, officers, employees, licensors, suppliers, agents, successors and assigns) harmless from and against all actions, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of (i) a breach by Customer of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under this Agreement; (ii) any violation of applicable law by Customer; or (iii) any negligent act or omission, or intentional misconduct, of Customer.
2. Indemnification Procedure.  The Party claiming indemnification shall: (i) notify the indemnifying Party of any claim in respect of which the indemnity may apply; (ii) relinquish control of the defense of the claim to the indemnifying Party; and (iii) provide the indemnifying Party with all assistance reasonably requested in defense of the claim.  The indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle any claim without the written consent of the indemnified Party so long as such settlement only involves the payment of money by the indemnifying Party and in no way affects any rights of the indemnified Party.
