The Seller agrees to pay the Buyer rent of $1,000.00 per year for the right to use. This amount will be payable upon the effective date of the Agreement and each Extended Term as described in Section 3.4.
3.2 Repair, Maintenance and Insurance. While the Seller’s right to use the Purchased Assets as set forth in this Section 3 is in effect, the Seller shall, regardless of whether the Seller actually uses the Purchased Assets during any period, be responsible for and bear the expense of all necessary routine repairs, routine maintenance, operation, and replacements required to be made to maintain the Purchased Assets in good condition, normal wear and tear excepted and with reasonable allowance for the age of the Purchased Assets, it being understood that the Seller shall not be responsible for any cost or expense of repairing or replacing any Purchased Asset should such Purchased Asset experience a fundamental failure or cease to operate notwithstanding the Seller’s performance of its routine repair and maintenance obligations as provided above. Seller shall keep the Purchased Assets fully insured against all risks of loss or physical damage thereto for the full insurable value thereof, and shall maintain such other insurance thereon in amounts and against such risks as Buyer may reasonably request.
3.3 Risk of Loss. While the Seller’s right to use the Purchased Assets as set forth in this Section 3 is in effect, all risk of loss, damage to or destruction (whether total or partial and even when such loss, damage, or destruction is a result of fortuitous causes or force majeure) of the Purchased Assets shall at all times be on the Seller. All the Purchased Assets shall remain personal property, and title thereto shall remain in the Buyer exclusively.
3.4 Duration of Right to Use Purchased Assets. The right to use the Purchased Assets shall initially be granted for a one (1) year period beginning on the date hereof (the “Initial Term”). Unless the Buyer provides the Seller, at least 45 calendar days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, written notice of the Buyer’s intention to not extend such right beyond the Initial Term, the right to use the Purchased Assets will be extended for an additional one (1) year period (the “Initial Extension”). The right to use the Purchased Assets will be extended for additional one (1) year periods beyond the Initial Extension unless the Buyer provides the Seller, at least 45 calendar days prior to the expiration of the Initial Extension or then-current subsequent extension, as the case may be, written notice of the Buyer’s intention to not further extend such right (all such extensions, including the Initial Extension, an “Extended Term”). The determination whether to extend the Initial Term or any Extended Term is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Buyer.
3
3.5 Right of Removal; Repurchase of Purchased Assets.
(A) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.5(B), after the expiration of the Initial Term and any Extended Term (as applicable), the Buyer shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion and at the Buyer’s sole expense, to remove the Purchased Assets from the premises where they are located upon the Buyer providing the Seller with written notice of its intention to so remove the Purchased Assets.
(B) If the Buyer wishes to sell any or all of the Purchased Assets to any third party, the Seller shall have a right of first refusal to repurchase the relevant Purchased Assets at the same price and otherwise on substantially the same terms proposed for such third party sale or, if no third party buyer has been identified, at such price and on such terms as the Buyer and the Seller may negotiate and agree. Promptly after reaching agreement as to the final price and other terms, the Seller shall make payment in full of such final price to the Buyer. In the event that the Seller does not make prompt payment in full in immediately available funds to the Buyer as so agreed, the Buyer shall immediately have the right to remove the relevant Purchased Assets without any further action or notice or claim upon the Seller with respect to such Purchased Assets. In the case of any proposed sale of any Purchased Assets by the Buyer to a third party, the Buyers shall give the Seller at least [30] days prior written notice of such sale and the terms thereof (or of any change in the proposed price or any other material term of such sale) so that the Seller has a reasonable opportunity to evaluate and exercise its right of first refusal with respect thereto.
(C) Exception. The Purchased Assets consisting of the Nordiko 9606 and the VSM, which are listed at line items 1 and 2 on Schedule A, are excepted from Sections 3.5 (A) and (B). To avoid confusion, with 90 calendar days prior written notice to the Seller, the Buyer may remove this tool from the Seller’s premises at any time after the effective date of this Agreement, at the Buyer’s sole expense. The Seller acknowledges that it does not have the right to repurchase this tool.
3.6 Right to File Financing Statement. The Seller hereby irrevocably authorizes the Buyer at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statement(s) and amendments thereto in such form and substance as the Buyer shall reasonably require. It is the intent of the parties that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby constitute a sale of the Purchased Assets and a limited and discretionary right of the Seller to use such Purchased Assets as provided herein, and that any filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise shall not be construed as evidence that any security interest was intended to be created, but only to give public notice of the Buyer’s ownership of the Purchased Assets.
4. Post-Closing Covenants. The Seller agrees that:
4.1 Asset Tags. If requested by the Buyer, the Seller shall cause the Purchased Assets to have asset tags affixed in a readily visible location at all times which asset tags will indicate that such Purchased Assets are the property of the Buyer; provided, however, that the Buyer shall be responsible for supplying such asset tags to the Seller.
4
