Agreement. The terms and conditions set forth in this EverestLabs.AI Master Terms & Conditions (referred to herein as the “Terms & Conditions”) shall govern all Services subscribed to by you (“Customer”) from NYPIT, Inc. dba EverestLabs.AI (the “Company”) as well as any subscription to, or purchase of any equipment (“Equipment”), all under a Services Subscription Order (“SSO”) entered into between Company and Customer. These Terms & Conditions (including any terms referenced herein) and the terms of each SSO shall together constitute the full agreement of the parties (collectively, the “Agreement”). In the event the parties execute multiple SSOs, each SSO together with these Terms & Conditions, shall constitute a separate agreement between the parties.
Subscription to Services. During the service term specified in the SSO, the Company agrees to provide use of or access to the services (“Services”) to Customer as described in, and set forth in the applicable SSO. The Services may also include the right to use certain Equipment on a subscription basis as set forth on the applicable SSO (the use of Equipment on a subscription basis and other Services provided may also collectively be referred to herein or in an SSO as RaaS (or Robot as a Service)). The Services shall consist of: the Company proprietary or licensed software integrated or associated with, or otherwise useful in connection with operating or interfacing with the Equipment (the “Software”), and any attendant computer hardware components, networking apparatus, and systems provided by Company for operation of the Equipment (“Additional Hardware”), and additional services, such as training or installation support provided by Company (“Professional Services”), all as described in an applicable SSO. Except for the limited rights provided in this Agreement and the applicable SSO, and except as expressly provided for in the Agreement, all other rights with respect to the Equipment and Services shall be retained by the Company or its manufacturers or licensors. Customer is only acquiring the limited right to use or access the Services subject to the terms of these Terms & Conditions and the applicable SSO, and is only acquiring the limited rights to use the associated intellectual property, data, and materials in accordance with the Agreement. Except for such expressly provided limited rights, all other rights in and to the Services, and any and all related or attendant intellectual property, data, and materials are reserved and retained by the Company or its licensors, as applicable. The subscription to Services is governed by these Terms & Conditions and the applicable SSO. However, in the event of a conflict, the terms of such applicable SSO will govern, but only as to the subject matter addressed in that particular SSO.
Fees and Payment Terms. Fees for the Services are set forth in the applicable SSO, and are due and payable on the dates set forth in the SSO. In the absence of any due dates set forth in the SSO, payment shall be due within 30 days following the date of invoice issued by Company. Unless otherwise specified in an SSO, Customer shall pay all amounts due on the applicable due date in US dollars by such method acceptable to the Company (including credit card payment) of immediately available funds. If Customer does not pay any amount payable to the Company under the applicable SSO within 30 days, Customer shall pay to Company a late charge equal to the lower of: (a) the maximum amount allowed by law and (b) 3% of the late payment amount. Payment of any late charge does not excuse Customer of any breach. Customer shall pay all assessments and taxes and charges (other than federal income taxes imposed on or measured by Company’s net income) imposed on or with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Agreement, including use of the Services and in connection with the shipment, possession, use, or operation of Equipment hereunder. Customer’s obligation to pay all subscription payments and other amounts under the Agreement is absolute and unconditional and is not subject to any abatement, counterclaim, defense, deferment, interruption, recoupment, reduction, or setoff for any reason whatsoever.
Term; Termination. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of these Terms & Conditions or the SSO, the Agreement shall continue for the service term set forth in the SSO. In the event of any breach by Customer that has not been cured within 30 days of receipt of Company’s notice thereof (10 days for any non-payment breach), Company shall have the right to terminate the Agreement upon notice to Customer. In the event of such early termination, Company shall have a right to declare all amounts under the SSO due and payable immediately, and take possession of, or render unusable, any Equipment or Services and uninstall or render inoperable any Software in any Equipment wherever it may be located, without demand or notice, without any court order or other process of law, and without liability to Customer for any damages occasioned or alleged to have been occasioned by such action, and to exercise any other right or remedy available to Company at law or in equity. In addition, if Customer is in breach of the Agreement, the Company may, in its sole discretion, make any payment or perform any obligation on behalf of Customer or take any action that the Company deems reasonably necessary to maintain and preserve any or all Equipment, the Services, and the Company’s interests therein. Customer shall not deem the Company’s payment or action to be the Company’s waiver of any breach or release of Customer. Customer shall pay immediately on demand all sums so paid by the Company, together with expenses (including legal fees and costs) incurred by the Company in connection therewith.
Confidential Information. In connection with the Agreement, each party (the “Disclosing Party”) may disclose or make available Confidential Information to the other party (the “Receiving Party”). “Confidential Information” means information, data, or materials, in any form or medium (whether oral, written, electronic, or other), that the Disclosing Party reasonably considers confidential in nature including, without limitation, information, data, or materials consisting of or relating to, or comprising, the Disclosing Party’s technology, trade secrets, know-how, business operations, plans, strategies, customers, and pricing, and information with respect to which the Disclosing Party has contractual or other confidentiality obligations, in each case marked, designated or otherwise identified as “confidential.” Without limiting the foregoing all Services (including the Software), Equipment and Collected Data (defined in Section 12 herein), and all intellectual property rights therein, is the Confidential Information of Company. Confidential Information does not include information, data, or materials that the Receiving Party can demonstrate by written or other documentary records: (i) was rightfully known to the Receiving Party without restriction on use or disclosure prior to it being disclosed or made available to the Receiving Party in connection with the Agreement; (ii) was or becomes generally known by the public other than by the Receiving Party’s non-compliance with this Agreement; (iii) was or is received by the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third party that was not or is not, at the time of such receipt, under any obligation to maintain its confidentiality; or (iv) was or is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or use of any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. As a condition to being provided with any disclosure of or access to Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall: (a) perform its obligations under and in accordance with the Agreement; (b) except as may be permitted by and subject to its compliance with this Agreement, not disclose or permit access to Confidential Information other than to its employees (and with respect to Company to its licensors, manufacturers and service providers) who: (1) need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of the Receiving Party’s exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations under and in accordance with the Agreement; (2) have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the Receiving Party’s obligations under the Agreement; and (3) are bound by written confidentiality and restricted use obligations at least as protective of the Confidential Information as the terms set forth in this Section; (c) safeguard the Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access or disclosure using at least the degree of care it uses to protect its similarly sensitive information and in no event less than a reasonable degree of care; and (d) ensure its representatives’ compliance with and be responsible and liable for any of the foregoing’s noncompliance with, the terms of this Section. However, if the Receiving Party is compelled by applicable law to disclose any Confidential Information then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Receiving Party shall: (a) promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party can seek a protective order or other remedy, or waive its rights under this Section; and (b) provide reasonable assistance to the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s sole cost and expense, in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. The Receiving Party’s obligations under this Section shall survive for a period of 5 years from termination or expiration or the longest amount of time permitted per applicable law, whichever is less; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under applicable law, the obligations under this Section will continue until such time, if ever, as such Confidential Information ceases to qualify for trade secret protection under such applicable law other than as a result of any act or omission of the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives. The Receiving Party shall be responsible for any breach of or non-compliance with this paragraph by any of its employees, service providers and agents.
Operational Service Levels. In the event Company provides any operational service levels in an SSO, then such operational service levels are subject to Customer’s compliance with these Terms & Conditions, and using the Equipment in accordance with the operating guidelines (“Operating Guidelines”), technical requirements (“Technical Requirements”) and specifications (“Specifications”) as provided by Company and those as contained in the applicable SSO and any additional use requirements set forth herein and therein. In the event any such operational service level fails to be achieved (other than such failure being caused by any act or omission of Customer or a third party, including any failure to use the applicable Services or Equipment in accordance with the Operating Guidelines, Technical Requirements and Specifications as provided by Company and those as set forth in the applicable SSO and any additional use requirements set forth herein or therein), then as Customer’s sole remedy and Company’s sole liability, Company shall provide one of the express remedies, as elected solely by Company, as may be set forth in the SSO.

For any Equipment used under a RaaS subscription, Customer, at its own expense, shall provide and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance, in: (a) an amount no less than $200,000 per element, component, or unit of Equipment (the “Property Insurance”); and (b) a form, and with insurer, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, including without limitation, the insurer’s agreement to give the Company 30 days’ prior written notice before cancellation or material change thereof. Customer shall name the Company as an additional insured (but without imposing on the Company any liability to pay the premiums for such insurance). Customer shall provide Company with certificates of insurance evidencing the insurance coverage required hereunder, as may be requested by Company, from time to time.
Application of Insurance Proceeds for Equipment Under a RaaS Subscription. Amounts Received By The Company. If the Company receives any proceeds as loss payee of the Property Insurance, or under any condemnation proceeding related to Equipment under a RaaS subscription, it shall: (a) if received pursuant to a Loss that has materially impaired any Equipment, credit such proceeds against Customer’s obligations to make Loss Payments to the Company hereunder or if no such amounts are then due and outstanding, remit such proceeds to Customer; or (b) if received pursuant to a Loss that has not materially impaired the Equipment, remit the proceeds to Customer. If Customer is in breach of the Agreement, the Company may hold any such proceeds as security for the obligations of Customer under the Agreement and apply such amounts in its discretion against Customer’s obligations under the Agreement.
Amounts Received By Customer. If Customer receives any proceeds under the Property Insurance, unless received with respect to a Loss that has not materially impaired the Equipment under a RaaS subscription, it shall promptly forward such amounts to the Company to be applied by the Company to the Loss Payments owed by Customer to Company in accordance with this Agreement. If Customer is in breach of the Agreement and it receives any proceeds under the Property Insurance (regardless of whether the Equipment is materially impaired) or other insurance coverage maintained by Customer, it shall forward such amounts to the Company as security for the obligations of Customer under the Agreement to be applied by the Company in its discretion against Customer’s obligations under the Agreement.
Purchased Equipment Additional Terms. The following terms shall also apply to any Equipment purchased by Customer under an SSO:
Purchase. The Company agrees to sell to Customer, and Customer agrees to purchase from the Company, the particular items of Equipment described more fully in the SSO. The sale of any item of Equipment is governed by the terms and conditions of these Terms & Conditions, as well as by the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable SSO. The Customer understands and agrees that the purchase of any item of Equipment transfers only title to each item of Equipment identified on the SSO and does not constitute a transfer of any intellectual property rights therein, nor transfers any title to any Services, including the Software, Additional Hardware or Additional Services, that are made available by Company to Customer under any SSO, which Software, Additional Hardware and Additional Services may only be used by Customer for the duration of the SSO service term and in compliance with the Agreement.

Customer understands that at the end of the SSO service term, Company shall be entitled to remove, take possession of, uninstall or render inoperable, any Software, Additional Hardware or Additional Services, including, without limitation any Software integrated in any purchased Equipment and any Additional Hardware connected to, or used with, the purchased Equipment.
