1. Notification Services. 1.1 Background. netLiNK provides Notification Services for the management and monitoring of remote equipment. The Notification Services utilize devices ("NetLiNK Devices") that are capable of transmitting data or information ("Data Messages") by means of third-party carriers of wireless and/or wire line telephone service ("Carriers"). For purposes of this Agreement "Notification Services" is defined as comprising of two functions: i) off-site monitoring, which is the receiving of Data Messages sent by an NetLiNK Device to the database, and ii) the sending of notification messages ("Message Delivery"), as configured by Subscriber, in response to the Data Messages received from the NetLiNK Device. 1.2 Notification Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, netLiNK shall provide SUBSCRIBER with Notification Services during the term of this Agreement at the Service Level set forth in Purchase contract. Each Base Station Device contains a SIM card that once activated will commence the Subscription Term for the particular SIM that is identified. netLiNK'S only responsibility is to provide off-site monitoring, control/scheduling of light fixtures and to send notification messages. netLiNK shall not respond or otherwise take action regarding any event which netLiNK monitors or for which netLiNK sends a notification message. Subscriber acknowledges and understands that Notification Services are not intended to be used for a primary life-safety, burglary, or fire protection detection and reporting system, that Notification Services rely on the telecommunication services of Carriers, of which netLiNK has no control, and netLiNK is not responsible or liable for the reliability or availability of Carrier's telecommunications services or the message delivery. Furthermore, Subscriber acknowledges and understands that 100% Mobile Data Service radio coverage for any on-street or in-building area at all times is improbable, even with coverage areas on the Carriers coverage map which is intended to indicate expected coverage and are not binding as an exact representation of coverage. 1.3 NetLiNK Devices. Subscriber shall purchase and install on Subscriber's premises the NetLiNK Devices specified in Purchase contract. netLiNK shall be responsible for delivering such Devices to Subscriber; and risk of loss to the NetLiNK Devices shall transfer to Subscriber upon shipment from netLiNK dock. Subscriber shall take reasonable actions to maintain and protect the NetLiNK Devices. Subscriber shall not modify, alter, disassemble, or damage a NetLiNK Device. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the placement of the NetLiNK Device, prevailing weather conditions, the presence and configuration of buildings, antenna placement, can impede or limit signal strength and communication performance. If any NetLiNK Device is damaged or otherwise becomes nonfunctional for any reason, Subscriber acknowledges and understands that Notification Services cannot be provided, and that netLiNK has no liability for failure to provide Notification Services. Subscriber shall be solely responsible for purchasing a new NetLiNK Device from netLiNK or netLiNK supplier whenever a NetLiNK Device is damaged or otherwise becomes nonfunctional. 1.4 Mapping Service. Subscriber NetLiNK Devices will be displayed on a map within the application. The mapping technology is provided by Microsoft Corporation and acceptance of this Agreement also provides acceptance of Microsoft's Terms of Use found here at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=21969 .

The Purchase Price is due within 30 days of delivery to Subscriber of the NetLiNK Devices. Subsequent Annual Fees for Notification Services will be paid with in 30 days of the anniversary of the install of the product. netLiNK shall submit an invoice to Subscriber in a timely manner for all Fees.
