AIM Intelligent Machines

AIM Platform Service Terms and Conditions

Welcome to AIM Intelligent Machines, Inc. ("AIM")! AIM offers an AI platform for earthmoving machinery, allowing companies to retrofit heavy, earth-moving vehicles (each, a "Vehicle"), irrespective of age, size or brand while preserving the ability to operate the equipment manually (the "Platform Service").

The Platform Service consists of:

• A cloud-based infrastructure (the "Cloud Backend") that provides all hosted software and services required to operate, coordinate and monitor one or more autonomous earth-moving machines (each, an "AIM-enabled Machine"); and

• An onboard solution (collectively, "AIMWare") consisting of (a) onboard software (the "AIM Software") that executes locally to perform real-time perception, planning and control and (b) associated hardware components and system including the sensors, mounts, power and communication interfaces that support operation of the AIM Software. AIMWare operates in coordination with the Cloud Backend but is also capable of functioning independently.

Customer wishes to subscribe to the Platform Service as further described in the applicable Order Form. These terms and conditions govern the Order Form and together they constitute the agreement pursuant to which AIM will provide the Platform Service to Customer (this "Agreement"). The parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Services

1.1 Provision of Service.

(a) Order Form. AIM will provide the Platform Service in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable Order Form executed by both parties. The Order Form will contain a list of the services to be provided by AIM, the date of the commencement of the Platform Service subscription term (the "Subscription Term"), the fees payable and other details to be agreed by the parties.

(b) Service. The implementation of the Platform Service will commence with the "deployment" activities described in Section 1.2 below. Thereafter, Customer will be entitled to use the Platform Service based on Customer's chosen level of engagement as stated in the Order Form: the "AI Analytics" level or the "AI Analytics and AI Operations" level. The "AI Analytics" level provides observational data generated by each AIM-enabled Machine, giving Customer visibility into the terrain, operator actions and machine performance through a secure online dashboard (the "Observational Data"). The "AI Analytics and AI Operations" level includes both the provision of AI Analytics and the autonomous operation of the AIM-enabled Machines.

1.2 Deployment.

(a) Installation. AIM will deploy the number of AIMWare units listed in the Order Form in accordance with a mutually agreed schedule. Each AIMWare unit is installed in a "non- invasive" manner such that the Vehicle controls remain unaffected. Each AIMWare unit may be installed only by AIM and only in the specific AIM-enabled Machines identified in the Order Form.

(b) Customer Team and Activities. As part of the deployment, AIM will train specified Customer employees and contractors to operate the AIM-enabled Machines ("Autonomy Managers"). Customer will take all reasonable precautions to ensure that only AIM personnel and Autonomy Managers will be in close proximity (within less than fifty feet) of any AIM- enabled Machines during deployment. The deployment activities described in this Section are dependent on Customer's cooperation and readiness. AIM will not be responsible for any delays caused by Customer (or Customer's representatives or agents) or for circumstances outside of AIM's reasonable control.

(c) Schedule. In setting any proposed deployment schedule, AIM will use reasonable estimates based on known information concerning the specific deployment. The schedule is subject to change as required to address any changing circumstances not in AIM's reasonable control, as well as any agreed-to changes in the Customer's requirements. AIM will use reasonable efforts to proceed efficiently, but is not responsible for any delays that are not caused by AIM, including, by way of example: any delay in the provision of any logistical support required from Customer (such as the provision of the applicable work space or living space, power or Internet failure, changes in the operational infrastructure or job site distances, access issues, etc.) or any Force Majeure Event (as further described in Section 11.3).

1.3 On-going Service Availability.

AIM will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain availability and performance of the Cloud Backend in accordance with this Agreement. In the event of any unavailability or material degradation of the Cloud Backend, AIM will use commercially reasonable efforts to restore the affected functionality as promptly as practicable. Customer acknowledges that temporary interruptions or degradation may occur due to maintenance, upgrades, network or equipment failures or other causes beyond AIM's reasonable control.

1.4 AIMWare Support and Maintenance.

(a) General Support. AIM will be reasonably available during normal business hours to answer questions and provide general operational support regarding the Platform Service and the operation of the AIMWare units. Such support will be provided on a reasonable-efforts basis, consistent with AIM's then-current practices. AIM may from time to time establish or modify its support programs and any such changes will be communicated to Customer promptly.

(b) Software Updates. AIM may update, enhance or modify the AIM Software from time to time to maintain or improve performance, security or functionality. Customer acknowledges that these updates or modifications may require temporary interruptions or re- starts of the Platform Service.

(c) Defects. Customer will promptly notify AIM of any malfunction or damage to any AIMWare (each, a "Defect"). Subject to the terms of this Section, AIM will, at its option, repair or replace any AIMWare that exhibits a Defect at no additional charge and Customer will cooperate fully with AIM's reasonable requests in connection with those activities.

(d) Customer Responsibility. Customer will be responsible for all costs associated with repair or replacement of an affected AIMWare if the Defect is caused by any of the following: (i) unauthorized access to the AIMWare; (ii) any damage to the AIMWare caused by any party other than AIM; or (iii) problems caused by Customer's failure to operate and maintain the AIM-enabled Machine. In the event AIM determines any of the foregoing exclusions has occurred with respect to a AIMWare, AIM will be entitled to charge Customer reasonable fees in connection with AIM's investigation and determination, as well as reimbursement of any reasonable costs related to AIM's activities under this Section.

1.5 De-installation.

As provided in the applicable Order Form, Customer will be charged a de-installation fee for each AIMWare unit installed in a Vehicle. De-installation will be performed solely by AIM or under AIM's direction. Customer will cooperate fully in facilitating such de-installation, including by providing timely access to the applicable Vehicle and performing any other reasonably required tasks. If Customer fails to cooperate and any AIMWare units cannot be de-installed at the end of the subscription term, Customer will continue to be responsible for all Platform Service fees applicable to those AIMWare units until de-installation is completed.

1.6 Professional Services.

If applicable, AIM will perform agreed-to professional services (e.g. consulting and additional training) as further described in a written Statement of Work (each, an "SOW"). Each SOW will include a description of the services and each deliverable to be provided by AIM, along with the related schedule, acceptance criteria and procedures, applicable fees and any additional terms agreed to by the parties. AIM will perform all Professional Services in a professional and workmanlike manner, consistent with industry standards. AIM will, at its expense, correct any material failure in its performance provided that, Customer notifies AIM within fifteen days after the earlier of (a) Customer's discovery of such failure or (b) completion of the professional services.

In the event either party brings one or more legal proceedings and prevails, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection therewith.

11.7 Equitable Relief.

Notwithstanding the provisions of 11.6 above, each party acknowledges that any violation of any of the protections of the other party's Intellectual Property Rights or misuse of Confidential Information would cause irreparable harm to such party for which it could not be adequately compensated by money damages. Accordingly, each party agrees that, in addition to all other remedies available to other party in an action at law, in the event of any actual or threatened violation of Intellectual Property Rights or misuse of Confidential Information, the other party will be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief, including, but not limited to, specific performance of the terms of this Agreement.

11.10 Modifications; Severability.

Any modification to this Agreement must be made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each party. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, such provision will be reformed to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and such holding will not impair the enforceability of the remaining provisions.

11.11 No Waiver.

The failure or delay of a party at any time to require performance of any term or condition of this Agreement will not affect such party's right to enforce such term or condition, or any other provision of this Agreement, at a later time.
