governed by these terms and conditions (Terms
and Conditions).
Sensornets offer to sell
products and services to the buyer (Buyer) is
expressly limited by Buyers acceptance of these
Terms and Conditions, as evidenced by Buyers
issuance of an Order (as defined below) for
product(s)
and/or
services,
or
Buyers
acceptance of any product and/or services under
an Order, or Buyers payment for any product
and/or services under an Order. These Terms
and Conditions apply to the exclusion of any
other terms that the Buyer seeks to impose or
incorporate or which are implied by trade,
custom, practice or course of dealing. Terms, if
any, included on any Order, acknowledgment
forms or other documents issued by or on behalf
of Buyer shall not apply and are hereby voided,
except to the extent that any such terms are
expressly agreed to in writing by Sensornet.

shipping, delivery, insurance, installation and
commissioning. Prices do not include any fees,
taxes or duties relating to the shipment and
delivery of any of the products, including without
limitations value-added tax (VAT), duty, import
and export tariffs and other forms of taxes and
excise duties in the United Kingdom and/or the
recipient country.
If the currency fixed in an Order is devalued,
such that the rate of exchange between the
currency chosen and Pounds Sterling varies by
more than two percent (2%) as from the date of
Sensornets offer, Sensornet may, at its sole
discretion, suspend all performance under the
Order and notify Buyer of any price adjustment
resulting from the devaluation. Buyer must then
notify Sensornet in writing within eight (8) days
of the date of Sensornets notification whether
Buyer wishes to purchase the products and
services at the adjusted price. If Buyer fails to
notify Sensornet during such eight (8) day
period, then Buyers order will be automatically
cancelled. Sensornet shall not be liable for any
costs or losses of Buyer attributable to such
cancellation.

Any offers to sell products and services by


Sensornet must be in writing to be valid, and all
such offers shall be valid for thirty (30) days from
its date of issuance, unless otherwise set forth in
such offer. Such offers shall be deemed
accepted only upon Sensornets receipt of
Buyers written acceptance of such offer
(Order), provided that such Order is on terms
acceptable to Sensornet and provided that
Sensornet receives such Order within one (1)
week of the date of expiration of an offer. Orders
shall be in accordance with Sensornets offer
and these Terms and Conditions unless
otherwise accepted by Sensornet in writing.

3. Delivery. The estimated date of delivery of


products and rental equipment, if applicable,
shall be stated in Sensornet's initial offer to sell
products to Buyer and Sensornet will use
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the
products within the estimated time to the extent
possible. Delivery dates are estimates only and
the time of delivery is not of the essence.
Sensornet does not guarantee delivery of
products or rental equipment, if applicable, on or
by any estimated delivery date. In no event shall
Sensornet be liable to Buyer for any costs, fees,
penalties or price reductions as a result of any
failure to deliver products or rental equipment, if
applicable, in accordance with any estimated
delivery dates.

Sensornet shall not be liable for any errors or


miscalculations in Buyers Orders.
Buyer may not cancel any Order without
Sensornets prior written approval, such approval
at Sensornets sole discretion. In the event
Sensornet expressly agrees in writing to permit
Buyer to cancel an Order, Buyer will compensate
Sensornet for all costs and losses attributable to
the cancellation. Subject to the warranty set forth
in Section 8, products purchased under these
Terms and Conditions are not returnable or
refundable.

unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the
parties.
Delivery shall be made Ex Works (EXW

equipment.
Without prejudice to any of Sensornets other
rights, in the event that any breach of this
Section 4 occurs or Sensornet reasonably
believes that a breach of this Section 4 may
occur, Sensornet may repossess and/or sell
some or all of the rental equipment at any time
and Sensornets employees or agents may enter

for that purpose, with or without vehicles. This

any rental equipment in accordance with the
applicable Order and these Terms and

the same requirements set forth in Section 8.

law, Buyer shall not reverse engineer the

15.
Assignment
and
Subcontracting.
Sensornet may at any time assign, transfer,
charge, subcontract or deal in any other manner
with all or any of its rights or obligations under
these Terms and Conditions. Buyer may not
assign, transfer, charge, subcontract or deal in
any other manner with all or any of its rights or
obligations under these Terms and Conditions
without the prior written consent of Sensornet.
16. Severance. If any court or competent
authority finds that any provision of these Terms
and Conditions (or part of any provision) is
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision or
part-provision shall, to the extent required, be
deemed to be deleted, and the validity and
enforceability of the other provisions of these
Terms and Conditions shall not be affected.
17. Waiver. A waiver of any right or remedy
under these Terms and Conditions is only
effective if given in writing and shall not be
deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or
default. No failure or delay by a party to exercise
any right or remedy provided under these Terms
and Conditions or by law shall constitute a
waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor
shall it preclude or restrict the further exercise of
that or any other right or remedy. No single or
partial exercise of such right or remedy shall
preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or
any other right or remedy.

12. Force Majeure. Sensornet shall not be


liable for failure to perform or for delay in
performance due to fire, flood, strike, or other
labor difficulty, act of God, act of any
governmental authority, riot, embargo, fuel or
energy shortage, wrecks or delays in
transportation, inability to obtain necessary
labor, materials, or manufacturing facilities from
usual sources, or due to any cause beyond
Sensornets reasonable control. In the event of
a delay in performance due to any such cause,
the estimated date of delivery or time for
completion of performance will be extended by a
period of time reasonably necessary to
overcome the effect of such delay. If Sensornet
reasonably determines that any such delay in
performance is likely to extend for a period of
ninety (90) days or more, Sensornet shall have
the right to cancel the applicable order upon
notice to Buyer with no liability or further
obligation to Buyer with respect to such order.

18. Entire Agreement.


These Terms and
Conditions, Sensornets offer and the Order
(excluding any terms submitted by Buyer with
the Order) constitute the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and shall supersede all previous
representations,
agreements
and
other
communications between the parties, both oral
and written.

any dispute or claim arising hereunder shall be
governed by laws of the England and Wales and
the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Conditions shall apply to all sales by Sensornet
and may only be modified or amended in writing
