  3. Ownership and Reservation of Rights. As between the Parties, Meter owns all right, title, and interest in and to Meter's Marks and all Intellectual Property Rights associated with the Services. Meter reserves all rights not expressly granted to Partner in this Agreement, and no licenses are granted by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. Any reference in this Agreement to the "purchase" or "sale" of the Services means the grant of a license to use the Services on the terms set forth in this Agreement and the Master Services Agreement.

  4. No Inventory Stocking. Partner may not issue "stocking" orders, meaning Hardware orders intended to be held as inventory for future resale, without Meter's prior written consent.

  5. Customer Setup. Depending on the Subscription Delivery Tier indicated on the Order (i.e., Pro Subscription or Premium Subscription), Meter or the End Customer will be responsible for installing the applicable Hardware at the End Customer's site, in each case in accordance with the Master Services Agreement.

  6. Subcontractors. Partner may engage qualified and reputable subcontractors to perform its obligations under this Agreement, provided that Partner remains fully liable for all acts and omissions of its subcontractors as if performed by Partner.

  7. Service Data. Partner acknowledges that, in connection with the provision of the Services, Meter generates and collects data relating to the operation, performance, configuration, and use of the Services and the underlying network (such data, "Service Data", as further described in the Master Services Agreement). As between the Parties and the End Customer, Meter retains all right, title, and interest in and to Service Data, including all intellectual property rights, on the terms set forth in the Master Services Agreement. Partner will not claim any right, title, or interest in or to Service Data, will not represent to any End Customer or third party that Partner has any rights in Service Data, and will not make any representation or commitment to any End Customer regarding the collection, use, retention, disclosure, or ownership of Service Data that is inconsistent with the Master Services Agreement.

  8. Compliance with Law and Partner Code of Conduct.

    1. General Legal Compliance. Partner will: (i) comply with all applicable local, state, federal, or international laws, regulations, rules, orders, and other requirements, now or hereafter in effect, of any applicable governmental authority, including any and all laws pertaining to customs, taxes, and contracts, in its performance of this Agreement and its distribution, licensing, and use of the Services and Documentation; (ii) promptly inform Meter of any claim, action, or proceeding, whether threatened or pending, that comes to Partner's attention and involves Meter or the Services; and (iii) immediately notify Meter of any known or suspected breach of the Master Services Agreement or other unauthorized use of the Services by an End Customer.

    2. Anti-Corruption and Anti-Kickback. Partner will comply with all applicable anti-corruption, anti-bribery, and anti-kickback laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, and the U.S. Anti-Kickback Act of 1986, in each case as amended. Partner will not, and will not permit any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, or representatives to, directly or indirectly: (i) offer, promise, give, authorize, accept, or solicit any bribe, kickback, facilitation payment, or anything else of value (including cash, gifts, entertainment, travel, employment offers, or any other benefit) to or from any person, including any government official, political party, candidate for public office, or commercial counterparty, in order to influence any act or decision, obtain or retain business, secure any improper advantage, or otherwise act in violation of any applicable law; (ii) make any facilitation payment, even where local law would permit it; or (iii) take any action that would cause Meter to violate any applicable anti-corruption, anti-bribery, or anti-kickback law. Partner will maintain accurate books, records, and accounts that fairly reflect all transactions related to this Agreement, and will promptly notify Meter in writing of any actual or suspected violation of this Section 3.8(b).

    3. Partner Code of Conduct and Other Policies. Partner will comply with the Partner Code of Conduct and other policies applicable to Meter's channel partners, as published on the Partner Portal and updated by Meter from time to time. Meter may update such policies upon reasonable notice to Partner (which may include notice via posting on the Partner Portal), and Partner's continued participation in Meter's channel program following the effective date of such update constitutes acceptance of the updated policies.

4. Pricing; Registration; Commission

  1. Pricing. As an authorized reseller of the Services, Partner will be entitled to purchase the Services at the various discounted prices set forth on the then-current Reseller Price List, which may vary based on (i) whether the opportunity is a Partner Opportunity or an opportunity initiated by Meter, (ii) Partner's then-current partner tier or program level (if any), as set forth on the Partner Portal, (iii) whether Partner has opted into any incentive offering or program made available by Meter from time to time, and (iv) such other factors as Meter may determine from time to time. Prices are on a net basis and exclusive of any Taxes or shipping charges, which will be borne by Partner, unless otherwise agreed between the Parties. Partner will not publicly market or advertise the Services at any price below the list prices set forth in the applicable Reseller Price List, except where prohibited by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Partner remains free to negotiate and sell the Services to an End Customer at any price agreed between Partner and that End Customer.

  2. Deal Registration. Partner may register a Partner Opportunity with Meter by submitting it through the Partner Portal. Meter may approve or reject any registration in its sole discretion and may require an initial qualifying contact with the End Customer before approving. Each approved opportunity (a "Registered Opportunity") entitles Partner to the additional discount available under the Reseller Price List and is subject to the deal registration terms posted on the Partner Portal.

  3. Commissions and Incentives. In addition to the discounts described in Section 4.1, Partner may be eligible for, and Meter may pay Partner, additional commissions and incentives in accordance with Meter's then-current commission and incentive program published on the Partner Portal. Meter will pay any such commission or incentive within thirty (30) days following Partner's collection in full of the first invoice from the applicable End Customer for the Order. Meter may offset any commission or incentive owed to Partner against undisputed amounts owed by Partner to Meter.

5. Product Orders; Delivery

  1. Order Submission. Partner will submit Orders either to Meter via email to orders@meter.com or to a Distributor (subject to Section 5.4) using the method required by the Distributor. Each Order must include, at a minimum, the information required for Meter to issue its standard order form to the End Customer, including: (i) the End Customer's full legal entity name, registered address, legal notice email, installation contact, and billing contact; (ii) each Designated Location, including address, square footage by Product, and targeted Go-Live Date; (iii) the Product(s) being ordered (Network and/or Cellular), Subscription Delivery Tier (Pro Subscription or Premium Subscription), and Subscription Term; (iv) pricing in accordance with Section 4 and the applicable billing cadence (Annual or Upfront); and (v) the shipping address for the Hardware (if different from the Designated Location) and any requested delivery date. Distributors may have additional requirements.

  2. Order Terms. Each Order submitted to Meter will be deemed accepted unless Meter notifies Partner of its rejection within two (2) business days after receipt. Meter may reject any Order that is marked as a draft, pending approval, missing a required signature, or otherwise incomplete. Any terms in an Order that differ from this Agreement or the Master Services Agreement have no force or effect. Partner will include Partner's freight account number on each Order; if Partner does not, then Meter or the Distributor may bill freight on its own account and pass the cost through to Partner.

  3. Delivery. Meter will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet any delivery date requested in the Order but is not bound by it. Meter will ship Hardware to the address specified in the Order. If Partner specifies a carrier, Partner must provide an active account number with that carrier; otherwise, Meter will ship under its own account and invoice Partner for the shipping costs. Meter may inform Partner of applicable delivery lead times by email.

  4. Distributor Orders. For Orders placed through a Distributor ("Distributor Orders"), Partner pays the Distributor under the Distributor Order, and Meter issues any credits or refunds to the Distributor (not Partner or the End Customer). Meter is not responsible for any failure by a Distributor to make payments to Partner. As between Meter and Partner, this Agreement controls over any Distributor Order, and no additional terms in a Distributor Order will bind Meter. References to "Order" in this Agreement include any applicable Distributor Order.

  5. Risk of Loss. Title to all Hardware remains with Meter at all times in accordance with the Master Services Agreement. When Meter ships Hardware directly to an End Customer site, risk of loss passes in accordance with the Master Services Agreement. When Partner takes physical possession of Hardware, Partner bears risk of loss or damage to the Hardware until Partner has completed its delivery and, where applicable, installation at the End Customer site. For international shipments, risk of loss transfers FCA (Incoterms 2020) Meter's shipping point.

  6. Order Segregation. Each Order must cover a single End Customer. Partner is solely responsible for (a) accurately identifying, in each Order, the End Customer, the Designated Location(s), and the shipping address for the Hardware; (b) shipping Hardware ordered for each End Customer to the correct address for that End Customer; and (c) where Partner is responsible for installation under the applicable Order, installing (or arranging for installation of) Hardware at the correct address for that End Customer. Failure to comply with this Section 5.6 may result in the End Customer's inability to access or use the Hardware or Services.

  7. End Customer Master Services Agreement. The End Customer's use of the Services is governed by the Master Services Agreement (available at meter.com/msa). Meter makes all warranties regarding the Services directly to End Customers via the Master Services Agreement and is not liable for any different or additional warranties or commitments Partner makes to End Customers. Partner will ensure each End Customer is bound by the Master Services Agreement before accessing the Services, by either: (i) procuring the End Customer's signature on a Reseller Order (as defined in the Master Services Agreement) that incorporates the Master Services Agreement by reference; or (ii) another written form of acceptance approved in advance by Meter Legal. Partner will not modify, summarize, or paraphrase the Master Services Agreement when presenting it to End Customers, and will not represent that any of its terms have been modified or waived without Meter's prior written consent. Meter may require evidence of End Customer acceptance upon reasonable request, and Partner's failure to comply with this Section 5.7 is a material breach.

6. Order Invoicing and Payment

For each Order Partner submits directly to Meter (i.e., not through a Distributor under Section 5.4), Meter will invoice Partner for the amounts payable under the Order upon the earlier of (i) the Go-Live Date of the first Designated Location for the applicable End Customer or (ii) thirty (30) days from the date of shipment of the Hardware to the End Customer. Unless otherwise specified in an Order, Partner will pay each undisputed invoice within thirty (30) days of its date, without deduction, setoff, or counterclaim, by wire transfer or other method specified by Meter, at Partner's expense. Meter may charge interest on any overdue amount at the lesser of one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by law. If Partner is more than one hundred twenty (120) days overdue on any invoice, Meter may revoke any discounts or other concessions granted to Partner and accelerate all outstanding amounts.

7. Hardware

  1. Hardware Lease; Title. All Hardware is leased to End Customer in accordance with the Master Services Agreement. Meter retains all right, title, and interest in the Hardware at all times. Partner has no leasehold, possessory, or other right or interest in the Hardware other than the limited right to take physical possession of Hardware for the purpose of facilitating delivery to, or installation at, an End Customer's site, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and the applicable Order.

  2. Liens and Encumbrances. Partner will not directly or indirectly create, incur, or otherwise allow to be incurred or be in existence at any time any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, assignment, security interest, lien, charge, or other encumbrance or similar claim on any Hardware.

  3. Disposition of Hardware. Upon expiration or termination of a Subscription (as defined in the Master Services Agreement), an End Customer's vacating of a Designated Location, or termination of this Agreement, Partner will reasonably cooperate with Meter and the applicable End Customer to facilitate the disposition of Hardware in accordance with Section 5.4 (Return of Hardware) of the Master Services Agreement.

  4. Hardware Replacements. Meter makes warranties regarding the Hardware directly to End Customers via the Master Services Agreement. Repair and replacement of Hardware will be handled in accordance with Section 5.3 (Hardware Repair & Replacement) of the Master Services Agreement and the Support Terms attached to the Master Services Agreement.

8. Term and Termination

  1. Term. This Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues through December 31 of the calendar year following the Effective Date (the "Initial Term"). The Agreement will then automatically renew for successive one-year periods (each, a "Renewal Term" and together with the Initial Term, the "Term") unless either Party gives the other written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days before the end of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term.

  2. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by written notice: (a) by either Party, for any reason or no reason, upon sixty (60) days' notice; (b) in the event of a material breach of this Agreement by either Party, thirty (30) days after the date of written notice thereof, if such breach has not been cured by the Party causing such breach by the expiration of the 30-day notice period; or (c) immediately by the non-breaching Party in the event of a material breach of this Agreement that cannot be cured.

  3. Accrued Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement does not relieve either Party of any obligation that accrued before then, or affect any rights or remedies either Party has for a prior breach.

  4. Wind-Down of Registered Opportunities. For thirty (30) days following expiration or termination of this Agreement, Partner may submit Orders for any Registered Opportunity that was registered with Meter before the effective date of expiration or termination, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

  5. Customer Continuity Following Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Meter may, in its sole discretion: (a) continue serving each End Customer directly under the Master Services Agreement, including by assuming billing and account management; (b) transition any or all End Customers to another Meter channel partner; or (c) terminate the End Customer's Master Services Agreement in accordance with its terms. Partner will reasonably cooperate with Meter in any such arrangement and will transfer End Customer contact information, account records, and other reasonably required information to Meter within fifteen (15) days following expiration or termination.

  6. Survival. Sections 1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.7, 3.8, 5, 6, 7, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 9, 11, 12, and 14, as well as any other sections which, by their nature when taken as a whole, a reasonable person would deem intended to survive, will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Expiration or termination of this Agreement will not affect remedies either Party may have for breach of this Agreement by the other Party prior to such expiration or termination.

9. Confidentiality

  1. Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" means any nonpublic information of a Party (the "Disclosing Party"), whether disclosed orally, in writing, electronically, or by inspection, that is designated as confidential or that the other Party (the "Receiving Party") reasonably should know is confidential or proprietary.

  2. Obligations. Except as necessary to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Receiving Party will not use or disclose the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party's written consent, and will protect Confidential Information using reasonable care. The Receiving Party will limit access to Confidential Information to its employees and contractors who have a need to know for permitted purposes and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those in this Section 9. Each Party is responsible for breaches of this Section 9 by its employees and contractors. Meter's use of Service Data as expressly permitted under the Master Services Agreement will not be deemed a breach of this Section 9.

  3. Exclusions. Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party, (b) is lawfully received by the Receiving Party without confidentiality obligations, or (c) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information.

  4. Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by applicable law or legal process, provided that, to the extent legally permitted, the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party reasonable notice and cooperates to seek confidential treatment.

  5. Existence of the Agreement. Each Party may disclose the existence and general nature of this Agreement, but not its specific terms (including pricing), without the other Party's consent, provided that either Party may disclose this Agreement in connection with a legal or regulatory requirement, audit, financing, or due diligence transaction, subject to customary confidentiality obligations.

10. Representations and Warranties

Each Party represents and warrants that: (a) it is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, has full corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, and its execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action; (b) its execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement do not and will not conflict with, violate, or result in a breach of any applicable law, any order or judgment binding on it, or any other agreement to which it is a party; (c) to its knowledge, no action, claim, suit, or proceeding is pending or threatened against it that could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and (d) it is, and will remain during the Term, in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations and holds all material governmental and regulatory authorizations necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and neither it nor, to its knowledge, any of its principals or beneficial owners is listed on any applicable sanctions list or debarred, suspended, or excluded from doing business with any governmental authority.

11. Indemnification

  1. By Partner. Partner will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Meter, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and contractors from and against any third-party claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed in settlement, arising out of: (a) any warranty regarding the Services that Partner makes to an End Customer and that is not authorized in the Master Services Agreement or Documentation; (b) any improper use or disposition of the Services by Partner, or any modification, installation, service, or repair of the Products not performed by Meter; (c) any violation of applicable law by Partner; (d) any breach of this Agreement by Partner; or (e) any fraud, gross negligence, or intentional misconduct by Partner or any of its representatives.

Meter has no obligation under this Section 11.2 for any claim arising out of (a) combination or use of the Services with any product, service, or process not provided by Meter; (b) Meter's compliance with any requirements or specifications provided by Partner or the End Customer; or (c) any modification of a Product made by any person other than Meter.

  3. Procedures.

  5. Waiver. All waivers must be in writing and signed by the waiving Party. Neither Party will, by the lapse of time and without giving notice, be deemed to have waived any of its rights under this Agreement.
