Terms and Conditions

1. Applicable Terms. These terms govern the purchase and sale of equipment, products, related services, leased products, and media goods if

any (collectively herein "Work"), referred to in Seller’s proposal ("Seller’s Documentation"). Whether these terms are included in an offer or an

acceptance by Seller, such offer or acceptance is expressly conditioned on Buyer’s assent to these terms. Seller rejects all additional or different terms

in any of Buyer’s forms or documents.

2. Payment. Buyer shall pay Seller the full purchase price as set forth in Seller’s Documentation. Unless Seller’s Documentation specifically

provides otherwise, freight, storage, insurance and all taxes, levies, duties, tariffs, permits or license fees or other governmental charges relating to the

Work or any incremental increases thereto shall be paid by Buyer. If Seller is required to pay any such charges, Buyer shall immediately reimburse

Seller. If Buyer claims a tax or other exemption or direct payment permit, it shall provide Seller with a valid exemption certificate or permit and

indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any taxes, costs and penalties arising out of same. All payments are due within 30 days after receipt

of invoice. Buyer shall be charged the lower of 1 1⁄2% interest per month or the maximum legal rate on all amounts not received by the due date and

shall pay all of Seller’s reasonable costs (including attorneys’ fees) of collecting amounts due but unpaid. All orders are subject to credit approval by

Seller. Back charges without Seller’s prior written approval shall not be accepted.

3. Delivery. Delivery of the Work shall be in material compliance with the schedule in Seller’s Documentation. Unless Seller’s Documentation

provides otherwise, delivery terms are ExWorks Seller’s factory (Incoterms 2010). Title to all Work shall pass upon receipt of payment for the Work

under the respective invoice. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller, shipping dates are approximate only and Seller shall not be liable for any

loss or expense (consequential or otherwise) incurred by Buyer or Buyer’s customer if Seller fails to meet the specified delivery schedule.

4. Ownership of Materials and Licenses. All devices, designs (including drawings, plans and specifications), estimates, prices, notes,

electronic data, software and other documents or information prepared or disclosed by Seller, and all related intellectual property rights, shall remain

Seller’s property. Seller grants Buyer a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use any such material solely for Buyer’s use of the Work. Buyer

shall not disclose any such material to third parties without Seller’s prior written consent. Buyer grants Seller a non-exclusive, non-transferable license

to use Buyer’s name and logo for marketing purposes, including but not limited to, press releases, marketing and promotional materials, and web site

content.

5. Changes. Neither party shall implement any changes in the scope of Work described in Seller’s Documentation without a mutually agreed

upon change order. Any change to the scope of the Work, delivery schedule for the Work, any Force Majeure Event, any law, rule, regulation, order,

code, standard or requirement which requires any change hereunder shall entitle Seller to an equitable adjustment in the price and time of performance.

6. Force Majeure Event. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any liability for any breach or delay (except for breach of payment obligations)

caused by a Force Majeure Event. If a Force Majeure Event exceeds six (6) months in duration, the Seller shall have the right to terminate the

Agreement without liability, upon fifteen (15) days written notice to Buyer, and shall be entitled to payment for work performed prior to the date of

termination. “Force Majeure Event” shall mean events or circumstances that are beyond the affected party’s control and could not reasonably have

been easily avoided or overcome by the affected party and are not substantially attributable to the other party. Force Majeure Event may include, but

is not limited to, the following circumstances or events: war, act of foreign enemies, terrorism, riot, strike, or lockout by persons other than by Seller

or its sub-suppliers, natural catastrophes or (with respect to on-site work), unusual weather conditions.

7. Warranty. Subject to the following sentence, Seller warrants to Buyer that the (i) Work shall materially conform to the description in

Seller’s Documentation and shall be free from defects in material and workmanship and (ii) the Services shall be performed in a timely and workmanlike

manner. Determination of suitability of treated water for any use by Buyer shall be the sole and exclusive responsibility of Buyer. The foregoing

warranty shall not apply to any Work that is specified or otherwise demanded by Buyer and is not manufactured or selected by Seller, as to which (i)

Seller hereby assigns to Buyer, to the extent assignable, any warranties made to Seller and (ii) Seller shall have no other liability to Buyer under

warranty, tort or any other legal theory. The Seller warrants the Work, or any components thereof, through the earlier of (i) eighteen (18) months from

delivery of the Work or (ii) twelve (12) months from initial operation of the Work or ninety (90) days from the performance of services (the “Warranty

Period”). If Buyer gives Seller prompt written notice of breach of this warranty within the Warranty Period, Seller shall, at its sole option and as

Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, repair or replace the subject parts, re-perform the Service or refund the purchase price. Unless otherwise agreed

to in writing by Seller, (i) Buyer shall be responsible for any labor required to gain access to the Work so that Seller can assess the available remedies

and (ii) Buyer shall be responsible for all costs of installation of repaired or replaced Work. If Seller determines that any claimed breach is not, in fact,

covered by this warranty, Buyer shall pay Seller its then customary charges for any repair or replacement made by Seller. Seller’s warranty is

conditioned on Buyer’s (a) operating and maintaining the Work in accordance with Seller’s instructions, (b) not making any unauthorized repairs or

alterations, and (c) not being in default of any payment obligation to Seller. Seller’s warranty does not cover (i) damage caused by chemical action or

abrasive material, misuse or improper installation (unless installed by Seller) and (ii) media goods (such as, but not limited to, resin, membranes, or

granular activated carbon media) once media goods are installed. THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 7 ARE THE SELLER’S

SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY PROVISION BELOW. SELLER MAKES

NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF

MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PURPOSE.

8. Indemnity. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless from any claim, cause of action or liability incurred by Buyer as a result

of third party claims for personal injury, death or damage to tangible property, to the extent caused by Seller's negligence. Seller shall have the sole

authority to direct the defense of and settle any indemnified claim. Seller’s indemnification is conditioned on Buyer (a) promptly, within the Warranty

Period, notifying Seller of any claim, and (b) providing reasonable cooperation in the defense of any claim.

9. Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, nor any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written

consent of the other party; provided, however, the Seller may assign its rights and obligations under these terms to its affiliates or in connection with

the sale or transfer of the Seller’s business and Seller may grant a security interest in the Agreement and/or assign proceeds of the agreement without

Buyer’s consent.

10. Termination. Either party may terminate this agreement, upon issuance of a written notice of breach and a thirty (30) day cure period, for a

material breach (including but not limited to, filing of bankruptcy, or failure to fulfill the material obligations of this agreement). If Buyer suspends an

order without a change order for ninety (90) or more days, Seller may thereafter terminate this Agreement without liability, upon fifteen (15) days

written notice to Buyer, and shall be entitled to payment for work performed, whether delivered or undelivered, prior to the date of termination.

11. Dispute Resolution. Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute relating hereto. If, despite good faith efforts, the

parties are unable to resolve a dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or

validity, the parties will first seek to agree on a forum for mediation to be held in a mutually agreeable site. If the parties are unable to resolve the

dispute through mediation, then any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement,

interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by

arbitration in Houston, Texas before three arbitrators who are lawyers experienced in the discipline that is the subject of the dispute and shall

be jointly selected by Seller and Buyer. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures.

The Arbitrators shall issue a reasoned decision of a majority of the arbitrators, which shall be the decision of the panel. Judgment may be entered upon

the arbitrators’ decision in any court of competent jurisdiction. The substantially prevailing party as determined by the arbitrators shall be reimbursed

by the other party for all costs, expenses and charges, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the prevailing party in

connection with the arbitration. For any order shipped outside of the United States, any dispute shall be referred to and finally determined by the

International Center for Dispute Resolution in accordance with the provisions of its International Arbitration Rules, enforceable under the New York

Convention (Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards) and the governing language shall be English.

12. Export Compliance. Buyer acknowledges that Seller is required to comply with applicable export laws and regulations relating to the sale,

exportation, transfer, assignment, disposal and usage of the Work provided under this Agreement, including any export license requirements. Buyer

agrees that such Work shall not at any time directly or indirectly be used, exported, sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in a manner

which will result in non-compliance with such applicable export laws and regulations. It shall be a condition of the continuing performance by Seller

of its obligations hereunder that compliance with such export laws and regulations be maintained at all times. BUYER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY


AND HOLD SELLER HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL COSTS, LIABILITIES, PENALTIES, SANCTIONS AND FINES RELATED TO NON-

COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE EXPORT LAWS AND REGULATIONS.


13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE TO THE CONTRARY, SELLER SHALL NOT BE

LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR OTHER INDIRECT DAMAGES, AND SELLER’S TOTAL

LIABILITY ARISING AT ANY TIME FROM THE SALE OR USE OF THE WORK, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY LIABILITY

FOR ALL WARRANTY CLAIMS OR FOR ANY BREACH OR FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY OBLIGATION UNDER THE CONTRACT,

SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID FOR THE WORK. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY WHETHER THE LIABILITY IS

BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER THEORY.

14. Rental Equipment / Services. Any leased or rented equipment (“Leased Equipment”) provided by Seller shall at all times be the property

of Seller with the exception of certain miscellaneous installation materials purchased by the Buyer, and no right or property interest is transferred to

the Buyer, except the right to use any such Leased Equipment as provided herein. Buyer agrees that it shall not pledge, lend, or create a security interest

in, part with possession of, or relocate the Leased Equipment. Buyer shall be responsible to maintain the Leased Equipment in good and efficient

working order. At the end of the initial term specified in the order, the terms shall automatically renew for the identical period unless canceled in writing

by Buyer or Seller not sooner than three (3) months nor later than one (1) month from termination of the initial order or any renewal terms. Upon any

renewal, Seller shall have the right to issue notice of increased pricing which shall be effective for any renewed terms unless Buyer objects in writing

within fifteen (15) days of issuance of said notice. If Buyer timely cancels service in writing prior to the end of the initial or any renewal term this shall

not relieve Buyer of its obligations under the order for the monthly rental service charge which shall continue to be due and owing. Upon the expiration

or termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly make any Leased Equipment available to Seller for removal. Buyer hereby agrees that it shall

grant Seller access to the Leased Equipment location and shall permit Seller to take possession of and remove the Leased Equipment without resort to

legal process and hereby releases Seller from any claim or right of action for trespass or damages caused by reason of such entry and removal.

15. Miscellaneous. These terms, together with any Contract Documents issued or signed by the Seller, comprise the complete and exclusive

statement of the agreement between the parties (the “Agreement”) and supersede any terms contained in Buyer’s documents, unless separately signed

by Seller. No part of the Agreement may be changed or cancelled except by a written document signed by Seller and Buyer. No course of dealing or

performance, usage of trade or failure to enforce any term shall be used to modify the Agreement. To the extent the Agreement is considered a

subcontract under Buyer’s prime contract with an agency of the United States government, in case of Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs) flow

down terms, Seller will be in compliance with Section 44.403 of the FAR relating to commercial items and those additional clauses as specifically

listed in 52.244-6, Subcontracts for Commercial Items (OCT 2014). If any of these terms is unenforceable, such term shall be limited only to the extent

necessary to make it enforceable, and all other terms shall remain in full force and effect. The Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Both Buyer and Seller reject the applicability of the United Nations

Convention on Contracts for the international sales of goods to the relationship between the parties and to all transactions arising from said relationship.
