If Oso physically (by itself or through a Third Party Service Provider) picks up the Equipment from Licensee then the Licensee agrees to pay for the cost of that collection. Upon any termination, Licensee will pay Oso all fees due under the Agreement, including fees for the remainder of the then-current Term as to the Orders or Agreement terminated.

As conditions precedent to the effectiveness of a party’s indemnification and defense obligations in this Agreement:

- the indemnified parties must fully cooperate with the indemnitor in the defense of the Action.
- Licensee Indemnity. Licensee will indemnify and hold harmless Oso and its officers, directors, managers, partners, members, employees, and agents (collectively the “Oso Parties”) from and against any and all Losses resulting from any Action brought by any third party against any of the Oso Parties or Third-Party Service Provider arising out of or relating to:
- Limitations of Liability
- Limitation of Liability. THIS SECTION 9, SECTION 5 (WARRANTY), AND SECTION 8 (INDEMNIFICATION) SET FORTH OSO’S ENTIRE, AGGREGATE TOTAL LIABILITY AND LICENSEE’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE AGREEMENT. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 9 WILL CONTROL IN THE EVENT OF A CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT OR ANY ORDER. IN NO EVENT WILL OSO BE LIABLE FOR ANY AMOUNT IN EXCESS OF AMOUNTS PAID UNDER THE AGREEMENT DURING THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LOSS OR LIABILITY. THE CUMULATIVE AMOUNT OF ANY PREVIOUS DISCHARGES OF LIABILITY WILL REDUCE THE REMAINING AMOUNT, IF ANY, AVAILABLE UNDER THIS CAP.
- Consequential Damages. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL OSO BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR ANY TYPE OF INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST REVENUE, COST OF REPLACEMENT GOODS, LOSS OF TECHNOLOGY, RIGHTS, OR SERVICES, LOSS OF INFORMATION, LOSS OF REPUTATION OR GOODWILL, OR INTERRUPTION OR LOSS OF USE OF SERVICE OR EQUIPMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, ARISING UNDER ANY THEORY OF LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE.
- Claims Period. LICENSEE MUST BRING ANY ACTION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT WITHIN TWO (2) YEARS OF THE DATE OF THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR SUCH CLAIM WILL BE WAIVED.
- Reliance Rationale. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT OSO SET ITS PRICES AND ENTERED INTO THE AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE UPON THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES AND DAMAGES SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT, THAT WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS THE SERVICES FEES WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER, AND THAT THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS OF LIABILITY AND DISCLAIMERS SPECIFIED IN THE AGREEMENT WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
- Notices
A party shall send any notices or other communications provided for by the Agreement to the other party in writing. Notice to Oso must be sent to Oso Electric Equipment, LLC / Attn: General Counsel / 8480 Esters Blvd, Suite 100 / Irving, TX 75063, in all cases with an email copy to [email protected]. Notice to Licensee will be sent to the address, fax number, or email address Oso has on file for Licensee.
Any notice shall be considered effective:
- on the day it is given if personally delivered;
- on the day after it is given if sent prepaid using a nationally known carrier of overnight mail;

Any notice sent to Oso under clause (d) must be accompanied by notice sent under clauses (a), (b), or (c) as a condition of its effectiveness, but routine communications as contemplated by the Agreement, and other notices which the Agreement specifies will be effective if sent by email, do not require an accompanying notice. Either party may change its address for notification purposes by giving the other party written notice of the new address and the date upon which it will become effective or by updating its contact information in the Oso Service. Licensee must provide current billing contact information in its Oso Service account. Missed invoices or payment notices not received due to Licensee’s failure to update its billing information will not absolve Licensee from liability for failure to make timely payment.

Neither party is authorized to incur any liability, obligation, or expense on behalf of the other or use the other’s monetary credit in conducting any activities under the Agreement.

- Subject to Section 6.4 and subsection 11.3(a), the parties agree to settle any dispute arising out of or related to the Agreement, or the breach thereof, by arbitration in Dallas, Texas in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. A single arbitrator shall be agreed upon by the parties knowledgeable in the matters covered by the Agreement or, if the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator within thirty (30) days, then the parties agree that a single arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as part of the award. The award of the arbitrator shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- Successors and Assigns. The Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, successors, and permitted assigns.

A sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Licensee, or any merger, consolidation, or other reorganization resulting in a change of control, will be deemed an assignment and subject to this Section 11.4.
- Entire Agreement. The Agreement, including all Orders, these Terms, any Supplemental Terms, and any referenced terms and conditions, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, oral or written, relating thereto. No documents or terms supplied by Licensee or any other party will be incorporated into the Agreement regardless of contrary language therein.
- Amendment. Oso may modify the Agreement, other than an Order, at any time by posting amended terms on www.osoelectric.ai. Unless otherwise indicated, modifications will be effective immediately.

In the event of a conflict between any parts of the Agreement, the following order of precedence will control: an amendment made pursuant to Section 11.6 (except with respect to a conflict with the express terms of an Order), Supplemental Terms, Orders, and these Terms. Where provisions at the same level conflict, the most recent document controls.
- Governing Law; Venue. The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to choice of law rules. For any claims not covered by Sections 6.4 and 15.3(b), the parties agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts located in Dallas, Texas.
- Survival. The following provisions, and any provisions which by their nature should survive termination, will survive termination: Sections 1, 2.3, 2.4, 3.2, 4, 5, 6, 7.3, and Sections 8 through 11.
- Severability. All provisions of the Agreement are severable. If any provision is determined unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to reflect original intent, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full effect.
- Waiver. A party may waive any provision only by a writing signed by the waiving party. A waiver in one instance does not operate as a waiver in others. No usage of trade or course of dealing will modify or discharge any part of the Agreement.
- No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The Agreement is for the sole benefit of Licensee and Oso and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No other person or entity shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary.
