Following are the Terms and Conditions by which Mr. RentBD, Event management and logistics supplier company provides the rental of equipment and services to companies or individuals (“the Client”). Mr. RentBD and Client are sometimes each referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1. RENTAL OF EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES
On these terms and conditions, Mr. RentBD will, from time to time during the Term, provide to Client (i) rental equipment described in accepted Quotes (“Equipment”), and/or (ii) technical services relating to the use and operation of the Equipment (“Services”), in each case, connection with Client’s production(s) (each, a “Production”).
Mr. RentBD will offer to lease Equipment to Client by means of a written quote for equipment (individually, a “Quote”) submitted by Mr. RentBD to Client via electronic mail. Mr. RentBD will offer to provide Services to Client by means of a written statement of work for services (individually, a “SOW”) submitted by Mr. RentBD to Client via electronic mail. If Client desires to accept a Quote or SOW, then Client shall sign and return to Mr. RentBD the corresponding Quote or SOW, at which time, such Quote or SOW shall constitute a separate and independent lease and contractual obligation of Client. Mr. RentBD acknowledges and agrees that Client, at its option, may accept or reject any Quote or SOW and that Client has no obligation whatsoever to execute any Quote or SOW. Any Equipment or Services provided under this Agreement by Mr. RentBD under a Quote or an SOW will be governed by this Agreement.
The Equipment shall be deemed to have been delivered to Client upon the earlier of (i) when Client, its agent of shipper picks up the Equipment from Mr. RentBD at Mr. RentBD’s facility, or (ii) when delivered to Client at the delivery address identified on the SOW or Quote (the “Production Location”) by Mr. RentBD or Mr. RentBD’s contractor or shipper. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Client is responsible for all costs of shipping and transportation charges associated with the delivery of the Equipment.
If Mr. RentBD delivers the Equipment it will use its best efforts to complete delivery to the Production Location by the delivery date set forth in the SOW or Quote (the “Delivery Date”). If Mr. RentBD fails to deliver the Equipment by the Delivery Date, neither this Agreement nor the applicable Quote will be voidable, nor will Mr. RentBD be liable to Client for any resulting loss or damage. If Mr. RentBD fails to deliver the Equipment to the Production Location within 24 hours after the Delivery Date, then Client may terminate the applicable Quote by delivering written notice to Mr. RentBD at any time before Mr. RentBD delivers the Equipment to the Production Location.
Client must inspect the Equipment immediately upon taking delivery and promptly file with the delivering carrier claims for loss or damage during transportation. Client also must immediately deliver written notice of such claims to Mr. RentBD and must notify Mr. RentBD of any other claims concerning the condition of the Equipment within 24 hours of delivery of the Equipment. Client’s failure to notify Mr. RentBD of any claims within such 24-hour period constitutes Client’s unconditional acceptance of delivery of the Equipment.
After Delivery, the cost of all necessary repairs to the Equipment shall be paid by Client (unless repairs are due to a latent fault not discoverable by Client) including any repairs or damage to the Equipment that are caused by Client or Client’s employees or agents and any damages caused by third parties, including shippers and common carriers, during any transport (unless Mr. RentBD employees are performing the transport) or storage of the Equipment. The “Rental Period” is the time between Delivery and Return (as defined below) of the Equipment to Mr. RentBD. Client must provide Mr. RentBD with an opportunity to inspect the Equipment with respect to which Client makes a claim. Mr. RentBD will not credit Client for any Equipment or parts returned to Mr. RentBD or any costs incurred by Client in repairing Equipment, unless Mr. RentBD previously agrees, in writing, to provide the credit or incur such costs.
In all cases and for all rentals, Client shall be solely responsible to protect and preserve the Equipment from damage or loss and to provide a safe environment for its use, transportation and storage in accordance with Mr. RentBD’s instructions and those of the Equipment’s manufacturer. Client shall not make any alterations, changes, modifications or improvements to the Equipment without the prior written consent of Mr. RentBD nor deface, remove or permanently cover any nameplate, bar code, stamp or insignia on the Equipment showing Mr. RentBD’s name and identification.
Client represents and warrants that
(a) it, its agents and the operators of the Equipment understand the operating procedures for each piece of Equipment rented from Mr. RentBD,
(b) all operators shall be competent to use the Equipment,
(c) Client, its agents and operators of the Equipment shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders enacted by or promulgated by federal, state, municipal or other governmental authority in connection with their use of the Equipment,
(d) that prior to using the Equipment, it and its agents and operators
(i) shall be licensed in accordance with all applicable laws; and
(ii) shall procure or cause to be procured all necessary permits, consents and licenses.
From the Delivery of the Equipment until its Return (as defined below), including during any time of transit or shipment of the Equipment not performed by Mr. RentBD, Client shall bear all risk of loss and damage to the Equipment.
THE CLIENT SHALL HAVE FULL RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY TO Mr. RentBD FOR THE FULL REPLACEMENT COST TO REPAIR OR REPLACE ANY EQUIPMENT WHICH (DURING THE PERIOD BETWEEN DELIVERY TO THE CLIENT AND RETURN TO Mr. RentBD) HAS BEEN LOST, STOLEN, OR DAMAGED FROM ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER (OTHER THAN ORDINARY WEAR AND TEAR).
At the conclusion of a Production, the Equipment shall be returned to Mr. RentBD, at Client’s expense at a place designated by Mr. RentBD (the “Return”). The returned Equipment shall be in good working order, subject only to ordinary wear and tear. Notwithstanding the Return of the Equipment, Client shall remain liable for any damage to the Equipment discovered by Mr. RentBD after inspection of the returned Equipment and the Return of the Equipment to Mr. RentBD shall not constitute a waiver of any such claims. When the Equipment has not been returned to Mr. RentBD by the date specified in the relevant SOW or Quote, Rent shall continue to accrue on the Equipment on a day-to-day basis at the rate contained on the applicable SOW or Quote, until such time as the Equipment has been returned to Mr. RentBD. Holdover of Equipment is only permitted with Mr. RentBD’s advance written permission, to be granted in Mr. RentBD’s sole discretion.
These Terms and Conditions provide for a lease of the Equipment to Client only and is not a sale of the Equipment to Client. Title to the Equipment shall remain at all times with Mr. RentBD. The grant by Client of a sublease of the Equipment shall not affect Client’s obligation to have the required insurance for the benefit of Mr. RentBD as provided herein, nor shall such sublease diminish any of Client’s obligations with respect to the Terms and Conditions. Any sublease of Equipment by Client must be approved by Mr. RentBD in writing in advance.
Mr. RentBD shall have the right to inspect the Equipment at any time during the Term with reasonable advance notice to Client. Client shall make any and all arrangements to permit a representative of Mr. RentBD with the necessary access to the location of the Equipment. If a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement or a Quote/SOW occurs, and after Client has been given a reasonable opportunity to cure such breach, Mr. RentBD has the right to remove all of the Equipment without liability to Client, and without prejudice to Mr. RentBD’s right to receive Rent and Charges due or accrued, up to and including the date of removal of the Equipment.
2. SERVICES
From time to time, in addition to Equipment rental for a Production, Client may also retain Mr. RentBD to provide services to assist with the set-up and operation of Equipment, which services (the “Services”) shall be described in the relevant SOW or Quote.
The personnel to be supplied by Mr. RentBD to render the Services shall act in the capacity of “Technical Engineers”. It is acknowledged and agreed by Client, that in performing those Services, Mr. RentBD’s personnel will be acting under the direct supervision and control of Client and Client’s managers and not Mr. RentBD. Client shall be solely responsible for providing such supervision and control as will protect the personnel, the Equipment and third parties from injury or loss. In view of such supervision and control by Client, Mr. RentBD and Mr. RentBD’s personnel shall have liability only for the willful misconduct or gross negligence of its personnel and then only to the maximum amount set forth in Section 6.08 of this Agreement.
3. RENT, OTHER CHARGES AND ADDITIONAL/DIFFERENT EQUIPMENT
The Rent and other charges for the rental of the Equipment and for the Services (if any) (together, the “Rent and Charges”) for Client to pay to Mr. RentBD shall be set forth in each SOW and/or Quote. Client acknowledges that time is of the essence in making these payments. Mr. RentBD may charge interest on any unpaid Rent and Charges hereunder, as well as any unpaid claims by Mr. RentBD against Client at a rate of 1.5 percent per month until paid; provided, however, that if such interest rate exceeds the maximum amount allowed under the laws of the state of Mr. RentBD’s applicable rental office then that maximum amount shall instead apply.
Client is responsible for any and all taxes, duties, broker fees, bond and all other costs resulting from Client’s use of the Equipment and/or Services. 3.02 If, during the term of a SOW or Quote, Client desires to obtain additional or different Equipment or Services from those described on such SOW, then it shall request Mr. RentBD of the same. In the event that Mr. RentBD provides such additional or different Equipment and/or Services, Mr. RentBD shall issue a new Quote to Client with details of the new Equipment and/or Services. 3.03 If a security deposit is required by Mr. RentBD, the Client shall deposit the amount specified with Mr. RentBD. Mr. RentBD may commingle such deposit with its other funds.
The Client hereby grants to Mr. RentBD a security interest in such deposit to secure all of the Client’s obligations under this Agreement. Within fifteen (15) days after written notice to the Client that all or any part of a security deposit has been used to satisfy any such obligation, the Client shall deposit with Mr. RentBD an amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to the required amount. When the Client has satisfied all obligations under these Terms and Conditions, Mr. RentBD will return any remaining balance of the deposit to the Client without interest. 4. TERM AND TERMINATION 4.01 The “Term” herein, shall commence upon the date (“the Effective Date”)specified on the Quote or SOW ( or upon Delivery of the Equipment if that occurs first) and shall end on the earlier of the first anniversary of the Effective Date or the Return of the Equipment (“the initial Term”).
After the Initial Term, this Agreement may automatically renew for renewal terms of a period no less than one year as agreed by the Parties (each a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) on each anniversary of the Effective Date (each a “Renewal Date”). 4.02 If Client shall default on or breach any of the terms, covenants, obligations, conditions, representations, or warranties in these Terms and Conditions, or if Client is the subject of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, Mr. RentBD shall have the right to immediately exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a) cease providing the Services and immediately recover the Equipment (by entering upon Client’s premises, if necessary) without liability for trespassing and removing the Equipment under all applicable laws (b) sue for and recover all Rent and Charges and other payments, then accrued or thereafter accruing; (c) terminate this Agreement; (d) retain any Rent and Charges or other amounts thereto paid by Client to Mr. RentBD; and (e) pursue any other remedy available under law or equity. All such remedies are cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or separately, and Mr. RentBD shall be entitled to recover expenses and costs including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of locating, repossessing, repairing, reconditioning and storing the Equipment. 4.03 Client may terminate any rental at any time and for any cause subject to the “Cancellation Charges” as defined in These Terms and Conditions.
Any termination of a rental shall not terminate any of Client’s obligations to Mr. RentBD under these Terms and Conditions for services already performed, including any ongoing obligations of payment and Return of Equipment. If in the event of termination of a rental pursuant to Section 4.03, or any other termination of an SOW or Quote by a Client without cause, the provision of Equipment and/or Services pursuant to an SOW or Quote is cancelled or delayed, notwithstanding the reason being a Force Majeure event (as defined herein), then Client shall pay Mr. RentBD according to the following terms. 4.05 In the case of Client termination or notice of cancellation the following Cancellation Charges will be applied. If the termination or notice of termination occurs on or after the fourteenth (14th) calendar day and before the seventh (7th) calendar day prior to contracted Outbound Shipping Date, Client will be responsible for all direct costs incurred in provisioning the Rental plus the full amount of labor costs as specified in the SOW or Quote.
If the termination or notice of cancellation occurs less than seven (7) calendar days before scheduled Outbound Shipping Date, then 37.5% of the Rent and Charges for equipment due under the SOW or Quote will be payable to Mr. RentBD by Client in addition to the full amount of any direct costs incurred and labor charges specified in the SOW or Quote. In the case of termination after Outbound Shipping Date, then 100% of the Rent and Charges for equipment due under the SOW or Quote will be payable to Mr. RentBD by Client in addition to the full amount of any direct costs incurred and labor charges specified in the SOW or Quote. Where Client terminates under this Section 4.04 and requests rescheduling, Mr. RentBD cannot guarantee availability of Equipment or Services for rescheduled date. 4.06 Mr. RentBD will use its commercially reasonable best endeavors to extend the term of provision of Equipment and Services, if requested by Client, who must give Mr. RentBD at least 3 days-notice of any requested extensions.
If any proceeding under any piece of insolvency legislation, is commenced by or against the Client, or if the Client is adjudged insolvent, or makes any assignment for the benefit of its creditors or if a writ of attachment or execution is levied on any item or items of the Equipment and is not released or satisfied within ten days thereafter, or if a receiver is appointed in any proceeding or action to which the Client is a Party with authority to take possession or control of any item or any item or items of the Equipment, Mr. RentBD shall have the option, without notice to Client, to immediately terminate the rental, cease rendering the Services, and repossess the Equipment which shall not be treated as assets of Client.

INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS
At all times from the Delivery of any Equipment to Client until its Return to Mr. RentBD, Client shall maintain insurance covering the Equipment from damage or loss from any cause whatsoever. Such Equipment insurance shall be in an amount sufficient to cover the full new replacement costs of the Equipment and Mr. RentBD’s rental charges, direct costs and labor charges until the Equipment is repaired or replaced. Mr. RentBD shall be named loss payee on such policy or policies.
Client shall maintain workers compensation/employer liability insurance during the course of any Equipment and/or Services provision hereunder with a minimum of $1,000,000 coverage. 6.03 Client shall secure and maintain, at its own expense, automobile and vehicle liability insurance, including coverage for the loading and unloading of the Equipment from Client’s owned or leased vehicles and shall include “comprehensive” and “collision” coverage.

All such insurance shall be issued by an insurance carrier authorized to do business in the state(s) where the Production(s) are located with an A. M. Best rating of A- or higher. The failure of Mr. RentBD to demand such notice or proof of insurance shall not, however, excuse Client from maintaining it. All insurance maintained by Client pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall contain a waiver of subrogation against Mr. RentBD. Should Client fail to secure or maintain such insurance, Mr. RentBD may, but shall not be obligated to, secure such insurance and Client shall reimburse Mr. RentBD on demand for such costs. Lapse or cancellation of any of the required insurance coverages during the Term shall constitute a material breach of these Terms and Conditions by Client.
Client assumes all responsibility and liability for injury or damages resulting from its handling, possession or use of Equipment or Services supplied hereunder, including, but not limited to any injury or damage resulting from the Client’s duty to comply with all applicable laws and regulations as well as the use of Equipment in Client’s operations or in combination with other equipment. Client agrees to hold harmless, defend and indemnify Mr. RentBD from and against all claims, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorney’s fees and other litigation or settlement costs) arising out of such duty to comply with applicable laws and regulations, and handling, possession, use or sale of the Equipment. The foregoing duty of Client to hold harmless, defend and indemnify Mr. RentBD shall not apply to the extent such claim, loss, liability or expense results from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Mr. RentBD.

In no instance shall any Confidential Information constitute an asset or property of Client in any such proceeding which may be assigned or which may accrue to any estate, person, trustee, receiver, creditor, court or to any creditor appointed committee or receiver.
In the event that Client shall receive a request to disclose any or all of the Confidential Information pursuant to a subpoena, order of court of competent jurisdiction or by judicial or administrative agency or legislative body or committee, Client agrees to:
