(“ Verkada”) and you, the end customer and user (“ Customer”) of our Products (as defined below), either in connection with a purchase of the Products or use of the Products for evaluation purposes as part of a free trial. Customer is under no obligation to purchase the evaluation Products used in a trial but will be invoiced for Products not purchased or returned following the expiration of the trial period. By accepting this Agreement, whether by clicking a box indicating its acceptance, navigating through a login page where a link to this Agreement is provided, executing a Purchase Order that references this Agreement, or providing another form of electronic acceptance, Customer agrees to be bound by its terms. If Customer and Verkada have executed a written agreement governing Customer’s access to and use of the Products, then the terms of such signed agreement will govern and will supersede this Agreement. This Agreement is effective between Verkada and the Customer as of the earlier of the date that Customer accepts the terms of this Agreement as indicated above or first accesses or uses any of the Products (the “ Effective Date”). Verkada reserves the right to modify or update the terms of this Agreement in its discretion, the effective date of which will be the earlier of (i) 30 days from the date of such update or modification and (ii) Customer’s continued use of the Products. Verkada and Customer hereby agree as follows.1. DEFINITIONSThe definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are set forth below.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Verkada grants Customer a royalty-free, nonexclusive, transferable (subject to Section 12) worldwide right during each License Term to use the Software, subject to the terms of this Agreement (“ License”). Customer must purchase Licenses to use the Software for at least the number and type of Hardware units and/or Product Features it manages by means of the Software, however Customer may authorize an unlimited number of Users to access and use the Software. If Customer purchases additional Licenses, either in connection with the purchase of additional Hardware units or renewal of Licenses for existing Hardware units, the overall License Term will be modified such that the License Term for all Licenses purchased will expire and terminate on the same date.

During the License Term, Customer will transfer Customer Data to Verkada while using the Products. Customer grants Verkada a non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, modify, store, and process Customer Data solely to maintain the Products and provide them to Customer. Customer represents and warrants that it possesses the necessary rights and authority to grant Verkada the rights set forth in this Section 2.2 with respect to Customer Data. 2.3. Restrictions. Customer will not: (i) use (or allow a third party to use) the Products for any competitive purposes (other than for routine product comparison purposes), including monitoring or testing their availability, security, performance, or functionality, in each case without Verkada’s express written consent. (ii) market, sublicense, resell, lease, loan, transfer, or otherwise commercially exploit the Products. (iii) modify, create derivative works, decompile, reverse engineer, attempt to gain access to the source code, tamper with the Hardware, or copy the Products or any of their components. or (iv) use the Products to conduct any fraudulent, malicious, or illegal activities or otherwise in contravention of any applicable laws or regulations (each of (i) through (iv), a “ Prohibited Use”).3.

To initiate a Courtesy Return, Customer must send a request for a Courtesy Return by email within such 30-day period either to (a) the Partner that submitted the Purchase Order(s) for the Products to be returned or (b) the Verkada sales representative responsible for Customer’s account, and include the serial numbers of the Products to be returned. 3.2 Hardware Warranty. Verkada represents to the original purchaser and user of the Hardware that, for the period set forth in the applicable Documentation from the date of shipment to the location specified on the Purchase Order, the Hardware will be substantially free of defects in materials and workmanship (“ Hardware Warranty”). 3.3. Remedy for Breach of Hardware Warranty.

Replacement may be made with a new or refurbished product or components. If the Hardware or a component within it is no longer available, then Verkada may replace the Hardware unit with a similar product of similar function. Any Hardware unit that has been replaced under the Hardware Warranty will be covered by the terms of the Hardware Warranty for the longer of (a) 90 days from the date of the delivery, or (b) the remainder of the original Hardware Warranty period. Customer’s engaging in a Prohibited Use serves to void the Hardware Warranty. 3.4. Warranty Returns. To request a return under the Hardware Warranty, Customer must notify Verkada or the Partner within the Hardware Warranty period. To initiate a return directly to Verkada, Customer must send a return request to Verkada at support@verkada.com and clearly state details on where and when Customer purchased the Hardware, the serial numbers of the applicable Hardware unit(s), Customer’s reason for returning the Hardware, and Customer’s name, mailing address, email address, and daytime phone number.

Verkada will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Products and implement updates, upgrades, and fixes as necessary to meet its obligations under this Agreement.5. CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS 5.1. Payment. Compliance. Customer is responsible for paying Partner for the Products pursuant to Partner’s invoice(s). In the event Customer is delinquent on fees, Verkada may pursue payment directly from Customer if Partner is unable to or chooses not to pursue such fees itself. Customer will use the Products only in accordance with the Documentation and in compliance with all applicable laws, including procurement and maintenance of any applicable licenses and permits. Customer will ensure that none of the Products are directly or indirectly exported, re-exported, or used to provide services in violation of the export laws and regulations of the United States or any other country. If Customer operates in a regulated industry, Customer represents that it has obtained all necessary local and state licenses and/or permits necessary to operate its business and is in compliance (and will use its best efforts to remain in compliance) with all local, state, and (if applicable) federal regulations regarding the conduct of its business. Verkada reserves the right to suspend use of any Products operating in violation of the obligations of this Section 5.1, following written notice to Customer. 5.2. Account Administration. Customer is responsible for identifying one or more individuals within Customer’s organization who will act as administrator(s) of Customer’s account.

TERM AND TERMINATION 6.1. Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue for so long as Customer maintains any active Licenses. 6.2. Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement, and Verkada may suspend Customer’s access to the Hosted Software, for cause (i) upon 30 days written notice to the other party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of the 30-day period, or (ii) if the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. For purposes of clarity, a material breach of the Agreement includes Customer’s failure to purchase and/or maintain a sufficient number of Licenses, as required by Section 2.1. 6.3. Effect of Termination. If Customer terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.2, then Verkada will refund Customer a pro rata portion of any prepaid fees allocable to the remaining License Term. The following provisions will survive any expiration or termination of the Agreement: Sections 7, 9, 10, 11, and 12, and any other provisions that, by their nature, would reasonably be considered intended to survive.7. CONFIDENTIALITY 7.1. Confidential Information. Except as explicitly excluded below, any information of a confidential or proprietary nature provided by a party (“ Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“ Receiving Party”) constitutes the Disclosing Party’s confidential and proprietary information (“ Confidential Information”).

Each party will use the Confidential Information of the other party only as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, will not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party, and will protect the confidentiality of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with the same standard of care as the Receiving Party uses or would use to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event will the Receiving Party use less than a reasonable standard of care. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may share the other party’s Confidential Information with those of its employees, agents and representatives who have a need to know such information and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein (each, a “ Representative”). Each party shall be responsible for any breach of confidentiality by any of its Representatives. 7.3. Additional Exclusions. A Receiving Party will not violate its confidentiality obligations if it discloses the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information if required by applicable laws, including by court subpoena or similar instrument so long as the Receiving Party provides the Disclosing Party with written notice of the required disclosure so as to allow the Disclosing Party to contest or seek to limit the disclosure or obtain a protective order. If no protective order or other remedy is obtained, the Receiving Party will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required, and agrees to exercise reasonable efforts to ensure that confidential treatment will be accorded to the Confidential Information so disclosed.8.

Verkada will process all Customer Data in accordance with the DPA.9. OWNERSHIP 9.1. Verkada Property.

Verkada will indemnify, defend, and hold Customer, its affiliates, and their respective owners, directors, members, officers, and employees (collectively, “ Customer Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any claim, action, demand, suit or proceeding (each, a “ Claim”), and the attorneys’ fees and court and investigative costs of Customer Indemnitees, made or brought by a third party against any of the Customer Indemnitees alleging that Customer’s use of the Products infringes or misappropriates any patent, trademark, copyright, or any other intellectual property of such third party. Verkada will pay any damages finally awarded against any Customer Indemnitees by a court of competent jurisdiction as a result of any such Claim, or any final settlement of such Claim, so long as Customer (i) gives Verkada prompt written notice of the Claim, (ii) gives Verkada sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (provided that Verkada may not settle any Claim without the Customer Indemnitee’s written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld), and (iii) provides to Verkada all reasonable assistance, at Verkada’s request and expense. If Customer’s right to use the Products hereunder is, or in Verkada’s opinion is likely to be, enjoined as the result of a Claim, then Verkada may, at Verkada’s sole option and expense procure for Customer the right to continue using the Products under the terms of this Agreement, or replace or modify the Products so as to be non-infringing and substantially equivalent in function to the claimed infringing or enjoined Products. Verkada will have no indemnification obligations under this Section 10.1 to the extent that a Claim is based on or arises from: (a) use of the Products in a manner other than as expressly permitted in this Agreement.

Customer will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Verkada, its affiliates, and their respective owners, directors, members, officers, and employees (together, the “ Verkada Indemnitees”) from and against any Claim, and the attorneys’ fees and court and investigative costs of Verkada Indemnitees, related to: (a) Customer or its Users engaging in a Prohibited Use. and (b) Customer’s indemnity obligation under the Alarms Addendum set forth in Exhibit B hereto (if any). Customer will pay any settlement of and any damages finally awarded against any Verkada Indemnitee by a court of competent jurisdiction as a result of any such Claim so long as Verkada (i) gives Customer prompt written notice of the Claim, (ii) gives Customer sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (provided that Customer may not settle any Claim without Verkada’s prior written consent which will not be unreasonably withheld), and (iii) provides to Customer all reasonable assistance, at Customer’s request and expense.11.

VERKADA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PRODUCTS WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S NEEDS OR EXPECTATIONS, THAT USE OF THE PRODUCTS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. 11.2. No Consequential Damages. NEITHER PARTY, NOR ITS AFFILIATES, NOR THE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, SHAREHOLDERS, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY OF THEM, WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE, THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OR LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES OR COSTS OCCURRING AND WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCTS LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE. 11.3. Direct Damages Cap. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO EXCLUDED CLAIMS AND UNCAPPED CLAIMS, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COLLECTIVE LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, SHAREHOLDERS, AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES, TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES, INJURIES, AND LOSSES ARISING FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF, BASED ON, RESULTING FROM, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER FOR THE USE OF THE PRODUCTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DURING THE 24-MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE CLAIM. THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE CLAIMS OR SUITS UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THE LIMITATION OF MONEY DAMAGES WHICH WILL BE THE CLAIMANT’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. 11.4. Excluded Claims Cap. “ Excluded Claims“ means any claim and/or liability associated with: (a) both party’s indemnification obligations in Section 10. (b) any breach by Verkada of the DPA, Section 8 (Data Protection), or other data privacy and security obligations.

MISCELLANEOUSThis Agreement is the entire agreement between Customer and Verkada and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings concerning the subject matter hereof. Customer and Verkada are independent contractors, and this Agreement will not establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, or agency between Customer and Verkada. Failure to exercise any right under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver. There are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement. This Agreement is governed by the laws of California without reference to conflicts of law rules. Any notice provided by one party to the other under this Agreement will be in writing and sent either (i) by overnight courier or certified mail (receipt requested), in the case of Customer to Customer’s address on record in Verkada’s account information and in the case of Verkada, to 406 E. 3rd Ave., San Mateo, CA 94401, or (ii) by electronic mail to Customer’s email address on record in Verkada’s account information or to Verkada at legal@verkada.com. If any provision of this Agreement is found unenforceable, the Agreement will be construed as if such provision had not been included. Neither party may assign this Agreement without the prior, written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign this Agreement without such consent in connection with an acquisition of the assigning party or a sale of all or substantially all of its assets. In the event of an assignment by Customer in connection with an acquisition of Customer or a sale of all or substantially all of Customer’s assets, Customer’s License may be transferred to the party acquiring Customer or purchasing all or substantially all of its assets, subject to Verkada’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. A party will not be liable for any failure to perform caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control which would otherwise make such performance commercially impractical including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, flood, acts of war, pandemics, government action, accident, labor difficulties or shortage, inability to obtain materials, equipment or transportation (each, a “ Force Majeure Event”). If a Force Majeure Event lasts longer than five (5) business days, the parties will meet to determine if performance under the Agreement can resume as agreed. If the parties cannot agree, then Verkada may terminate the applicable Purchase Order or this Agreement. If any disputes arise, the parties will first attempt to resolve the dispute informally via good faith negotiation. If the dispute has not been resolved after 30 days, the parties will resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator administered by JAMS, its successors and assigns, in San Mateo County, California, unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, and pursuant to its arbitration rules. Each party will be responsible for paying any arbitration fees in accordance with the foregoing rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator may include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its data security, intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights. EXHIBIT AThe Service Level Agreement is available at https://www.verkada.com/support/sla/. EXHIBIT BAlarms AddendumThis “ Alarms Addendum” sets forth the terms applicable to Customer’s use of the Monitoring Services (as defined below).1. Certain Definitions. a. “ Alarm(s)” means an alarm signal, data, video or audio transmission initiated by the Hardware installed on Customer’s premises signaling a specific type of situation that is transmitted to a Call Center for response via the Hosted Software. b. “ Call Center(s)” means a central monitoring station that receives and responds to an Alarm for Customer as more fully set forth below. c. “ Call List” means the list of names, with corresponding telephone numbers and email addresses, of those persons in the order Customer wishes to receive notification of Alarms which must be created, and updated by Customer from time to time, via the Hosted Software. d. “ First Responder(s)” means the entity (e.g., fire department, police department) that is contacted by the Call Center to respond to an Alarm received at the Call Center. e. “ Monitoring Services” means the automated Alarm transmission functionality enabled by the Software that, when triggered, transmits an Alarm to the Call Center for a response, as more fully described in the Documentation. The Monitoring Services are deemed to be a Product under the Agreement.2. Monitoring Services. a. In order to use the Monitoring Services, Customer must: (i) purchase a License for each location at which Monitoring Services will be provided (a “ Monitoring License”). and (ii) enable the “Emergency Dispatch” toggle within the Hosted Software, as more fully described in the Documentation. b. For each Alarm transmitted through the Hosted Software, the Call Center will respond in accordance with its internal operating procedures, and only if warranted in the sole discretion of the Call Center. Not all Alarms require notification to First Responders. If the video verification settings are set to ‘Normal Mode’ (as described in the Documentation), the Call Center may not notify the individuals on the Call List if it is unable to determine a threat to person or property, including because Call Center cannot discern a threat from the video provided or it is unable to access video of the trigger event. Once dispatched, the Call Center may be unable to recall First Responders. c. In the event of notification to Customer, the Call Center will call the person(s) named in the Call List, in the order set by Customer. Receipt by Customer of any form of notification provided by the Call Center pursuant to the Call List, is deemed compliance with the notification obligation hereunder, which notice may include SMS or voice mail message. d. If video or audio Alarms are received at the Call Center, the Call Center will monitor such video or sound in accordance with its internal operating procedures, and for so long as the Call Center, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.3. Customer’s Obligations. a. Customer (or a properly licensed installer selected by Customer) is responsible for installation (including the design of such installation), maintenance, service, repair, inspection and testing of the Products. Once installed, it is Customer’s responsibility (or a properly licensed installer selected by Customer) to configure its Products in order to enable the Monitoring Services, including by creating and maintaining appropriate Trigger and Response Actions via the Hosted Software (i.e., by creating an “Alarm Address” within Customer’s account in the Hosted Software and configuring it in Customer’s discretion). Monitoring Services will be provided only if the Hardware Products have been configured to transmit Alarms to the Call Center by means of the foregoing. b. Customer is responsible, at Customer’s sole expense, for supplying all systems, and incidental functionality (e.g., high-speed Internet access, IP Address and or wireless services, all 110 Volt AC power), necessary to operate the Products at Customer’s premises. c. Once delivered, the Hardware Products are in the possession and control of Customer, and it is Customer’s sole responsibility to regularly test the operation of its Products. Verkada does not design installations, install, inspect, maintain, service, repair, or test Products for Customers. d. Customer is responsible for obtaining and maintaining all licenses, registration and permits for the Products and Monitoring Services, including those required by the Customer’s local government, necessary to use the Products as contemplated under this Alarms Addendum in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.4. Monitoring Services Exclusions. a. Except for the systems under its control that Verkada uses to make the Hosted Software available, Alarms are transmitted over third party communication networks beyond the control of Verkada and are not maintained by Verkada. Verkada will not be responsible for any failure by such third-party networks which prevents transmission of Alarms from reaching the Call Center or any damages arising therefrom. b. Verkada will have no liability for permit fees, false alarms, false alarm fines, the manner in which First Responders respond, any response delays caused by the First Responders, the failure of First Responders to respond, or the manner in which Alarms are handled by the Call Centers or First Responders. c. Verkada makes no representation that any aspect of the Products meets code requirements or constitute an alarm system, burglar alarm system, fire alarm system, CCTV system, access control system or other electronic security system, as those terms are defined under the applicable laws of the jurisdictions in which Customer uses the Products. d. Verkada is not a Call Center and does not provide the services of a Call Center. Verkada does not respond to an Alarm, notify, or attempt to notify the persons named in the Call List, request dispatch of First Responders, or other agents to Customer’s premises to investigate or verify an Alarm. The portion of the Monitoring Services performed by Verkada is strictly limited to Verkada’s automated signal and data retransmission software, receivers, and related components, routing Alarms generated from the Products at Customer’s premise via a third-party network to a Call Center for response. The Customer is not contracting with Verkada to provide the services of the Call Center. Verkada and the Call Center are independent and unrelated entities, and there is no subcontractor, employer or employee, master or servant, joint venture, partnership, or contractual relationship between them.5. Suspension &amp. Termination. Verkada may, without prior notice, suspend or terminate the Monitoring Services, in Verkada’s sole discretion, in the event of: (a) a Force Majeure Event which renders any aspect of the Monitoring Services inoperable or impractical.
