TENNANT END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR AUTONOMOUS NAVIGATION SOFTWARE

This End User License Agreement, together with all documents referenced herein (collectively, this “Agreement”) explains the special terms of use of the Software and Autonomy Services (each as defined below), and the other terms and conditions relating to such Software and Autonomy Services, in each case applicable to the customer licensing the Software under this Agreement (the “End User”) in connection with an order by such End User pursuant to a Service Document (as defined below) between such End User and the affiliate of Tennant Company identified in such Service Document (such affiliate being referred to in this Agreement as “Tennant”). Brain Corporation (“Brain”) is a technology provider to Tennant. This Agreement governs the use of Brain’s software (the “Brain Software”) and Tennant’s software (the “Tennant Software”; the Brain Software and the Tennant Software are collectively referred to herein as the “Software”) contained on any BrainOS® powered robotic scrubber provided under the “Brain” or “BrainOS” trademark and “Tennant” trademark and manufactured and sold by Tennant or a Tennant distributor or reseller (each, a “Robotic Floor Cleaner”).

Accepting this Agreement

By the End User (a) using the Software or Autonomy Features (as defined below), (b) executing or accepting this Agreement, or (c) executing or issuing a subscription agreement, order document, quote or other instrument or agreement that references this Agreement or the applicable Robotic Floor Cleaner(s) (a “ Service Document” ), the End User agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including its limitations on access, use, transferability, warranty, and liability, for the referenced and all future purchases of Robotic Floor Cleaners. In certain circumstances, including when the End User obtains a Robotic Floor Cleaner from a Tennant- authorized distributor or reseller, the support, training, and other obligations and rights of Tennant hereunder may be delegated, in Tennant’s sole discretion, to a Tennant-authorized distributor or reseller, training partner or service partner.

Autonomy Services

During the initial period specified in the respective Service Document (as such period may be extended or renewed from time to time), the End User will be provided the following services (the “Autonomy Services”):
Autonomy Features. With the autonomous navigation and other features of the Software (collectively, the “Autonomy Features”) enabled for a Robotic Floor Cleaner, the Robotic Floor Cleaner can clean along routes that the End User preconfigures. The End User is solely responsible for the design of all preconfigured routes. Without the Autonomy Features enabled, the Robotic Floor Cleaner will not be able to operate autonomously but can be used in manual operation.

Support Services. Tennant will provide its standard first level service on the End User’s Robotic Floor Cleaner. Tennant or Tennant Affiliates (as defined below) (as applicable) will provide to the End User the following Software support services, as applicable: (a) cloud-connectivity for remote diagnosis of problems and support relating to the Autonomy Features; (b) Software updates for safety-critical or new software features; and (c) summaries of the amount of usage in autonomous mode of each Robotic Floor Cleaner. The Autonomy Services require use of communication methods like cellular service or other similar systems. The End User consents to such communications and waives any claims it may have against Tennant or its affiliates, subcontractors, or sub-processors, including Brain, and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, and licensors (“ Tennant Affiliates” ) related to such communication methods. Tennant is not responsible for the availability or quality of such communication methods. During operation, if access to cellular data is not available for a Robotic Floor Cleaner, Tennant may not be able to provide that Robotic Floor Cleaner the applicable support services described in this Section 2.2. Furthermore, to the extent Tennant (through Brain or otherwise) provides text communication to support Autonomy Services, the End User must provide a cellular phone withc ellular service and must agree to receive such text communication.

Use of the Software and Autonomy Features by the End User

The End User shall comply with the usage rules established below that apply to all Robotic Floor Cleaners (collectively, the “Restrictions on Use”):
The End User agrees to be responsible for the operation and use of the Autonomy Features by the End User and its employees, agents, contractors, and any transferee or other entity that the End User permits to use the Robotic Floor Cleaner (its “Permittees”).
The End User agrees to use the Software, Autonomy Services, or Autonomy Features only for purposes that are permitted by (a) this Agreement and (b) any applicable law, regulation, or generally accepted practices or guidelines in the relevant jurisdictions (including any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the United States, or such other country in which the End User purchases or uses the Robotic Floor Cleaner).

Approved Uses. The Autonomy Features allow the Robotic Floor Cleaner to learn actions performed by an operator and later autonomously perform similar actions based on that learning. Without limiting the other Restrictions on Use in this Section 3, the End User and its Permittees shall only use the Robotic Floor Cleaner and Autonomy Services in Approved Environments. “Approved Environments” are indoor industrial/commercial environments typically cleaned by manual floor cleaners of comparable build and design to the Robotic Floor Cleaner, where the approved cleaning area shall not include ramps or inclines. Approved Environments do not include environments requiring failsafe performance, including any application in which the failure of the Robotic Floor Cleaner, Software, and Autonomy Services could be reasonably likely to lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe physical or property damage after employing reasonable measures to secure the location in advance of the use of the Robotic Floor Cleaner. Approved Environments shall be limited to cleaning areas with adequate cellular communication signals permitting cellular data communication with the Robotic Floor Cleaner’s central processing unit to enable periodic safety-related updates not less than monthly and comply with all other requirements listed in the Instructions (as defined below). The End User will monitor and designate Approved Environments for cleaning using Tennant’s product documentation and industry standard practices for machinery and wet floors, including caution signage and barriers, and while a Robotic Floor Cleaner is in autonomous mode, all drops, stairs, escalators, moving platforms, or cliffs near to the Robotic Floor Cleaner during its operation must be guarded by a physical barrier (such as, for example, safety cones). The End User shall, and shall cause its Permittees to, use the Autonomy Services only in accordance with the Robotic Floor Cleaner’s user manuals, guides, safety sheets, and instructions provided in the Software (collectively, the “Instructions”). These Instructions may be updated, revised, or otherwise modified by Brain or Tennant from time to time. The End User will be responsible for operating the Robotic Floor Cleaner and Autonomy Services, and instructing all Permittees of the Robotic Floor Cleaner how to use, the Robotic Floor Cleaner and Autonomy Services, in accordance with the Instructions.

Training. Tennant shall provide its standard introductory training to the End User for the operation and use of the Robotic Floor Cleaner and associated Autonomy Services. This training consists of operation subject to the Restrictions on Use described in this Section 3 and other basic operation instructions. After the End User has completed such training, the End User will be responsible for instructing Permittees of the Robotic Floor Cleaner how to use the Robotic Floor Cleaner and Autonomy Services in accordance with the training and Instructions. Tennant reserves the right to charge for additional on-site training requests.

Healthcare Supplement. Any usage of a Robotic Floor Cleaner and Autonomy Services in a Healthcare Facility (as defined below) is governed by the additional terms and conditions in the EULA Healthcare Supplement attached as Exhibit A hereto. For clarity, a “Healthcare Facility” is any facility, or portion thereof, providing clinical medical services related to an individual’s health, including diagnosis and treatment of physical disease, illness, injury, or impairment

Proper Maintenance and Inspections. The End User shall, and shall cause its Permittees to, only operate the Software and Autonomy Services while the Robotic Floor Cleaner is in operating condition (i.e., does not have damage, impairments, or wear that interfere with its functionality) during the commercially reasonable life of the Robotic Floor Cleaner. The End User shall, and shall cause its Permittees to, only use
the Software and Autonomy Features so long as the Robotic Floor Cleaner is maintained and operated in accordance with the Robotic Floor Cleaner’s Instructions. This maintenance and operation shall include:

The End User agrees that Tennant and Tennant Affiliates will not be liable to the End User or any third party for any modification of the Software, Autonomy Services or Autonomy Features.

General Legal Terms

Notwithstanding any provision of any other document or instrument, any terms (other than those set forth in this Agreement) with respect to the AMR Data, Software, Autonomy Services, or Autonomy Features in a Service Document, purchase order, vendor agreement, extended service agreement, or any other document or instrument are void and of noforce or effect except to the extent expressly agreed upon in a writing signed by Tennant that expressly refers to this Agreement and specifically identifies the provision or provisions hereof that are superseded or supplemented thereby, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control in the event of a conflict with any such document or instrument except to the extent superseded as provided above. This Agreement, together with the transaction-specific terms in a Service Document such as price, Subscription Term and location(s) of Robotic Floor Cleaner(s) (together, the “Agreement Documents”) constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between the End User and Tennant with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, governs all matters relating to the AMR Data, Software, Autonomy Services, and Autonomy Features (excluding any services which Brain may provide to the End User under a separate written agreement), and completely replaces and supersedes any other agreements or understandings between the End User and Tennant in relation to the AMR Data, Software, Autonomy Services, and/or Autonomy Features, subject to the first sentence of this Section 10.1. The End User agrees that if Tennant does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Agreement Documents (or which Tennant has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a waiver of Tennant’s rights and those rights or remedies will still be available to Tennant. If any court of law, having the jurisdiction to decide on this matter, or arbitrator pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions hereof rules that any provision of the Agreement Documents is invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be amended to achieve as closely as possible the effect of the original term and all other provisions of the Agreement Documents will continue in full force and effect. This Agreement shall serve as the Autonomous Navigation Software End User License Agreement (“EULA”) or similar phrasing as may be referenced by the Instructions  and other documents provided or made available by Tennant.

The Software is subject to United States Export Laws. The End User agrees to comply with all applicable domestic and international export and re-export restrictions and regulations, including those of the jurisdiction where the Robotic Floor Cleaner was delivered, and not to transfer, or authorize the transfer, of the Software, Autonomy  Services, or Autonomy Features to a prohibited country or otherwise in violation of any such restrictions or regulations.

The rights granted in the Agreement Documents may not be assigned or transferred by the End User without the prior written approval of Tennant. The End User shall not be permitted to delegate the End User’s responsibilities or obligations under the Agreement Documents to any third party without Tennant’s prior written approval. Tennant may assign or transfer the Agreement Documents or any of its rights or obligations thereunder without consent. Further, Tennant may subcontract any of its obligations under this Agreement without consent; provided, that no such subcontracting shall relieve Tennant of any obligations under this Agreement. At the request of Tennant (or, as applicable, Tennant Affiliates), the End User shall, and shall cause its personnel to, promptly execute such further documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement, including to perfect, register or enforce the rights set forth herein.

The Agreement Documents shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement Documents, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Claims shall be heard by a single arbitrator, unless the claim amount exceeds $500,000, in which case the dispute shall be heard by a panel of three arbitrators. The place of arbitration shall be Hennepin County, Minnesota. Hearings will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules that contemplate in-person hearings. The standard provisions of the Commercial Rules shall apply. Arbitrators will have the authority to allocate the costs of the arbitration process among the parties but  will only have the authority to allocate attorneys’ fees if a particular law permits them to do so. Except as may be required by law, neither the End User nor Tennant nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both the End User and Tennant. The End Use  and Tennant agree that failure or refusal of the other party to pay its required share of the deposits for arbitrator compensation or administrative charges shall constitute a waiver by that party to present evidence or cross-examine witnesses. In such event, the other party shall be required to present evidence and legal argument as the arbitrator(s) may require for the making of an award. Such waiver shall not allow for a default judgment against the nonpaying party in the absence of evidence presented as provided for above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the End User agrees that Tennant shall be allowed to seek injunctive remedies (or any similar type of interim relief) in court. Regardlessof arbitrability, any dispute resolution proceedings or lawsuits, whether in arbitration or in a court of law, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, or representative action. Therefore, the End User hereby waives all rights to bring claims on behalf of a class of persons; however, the End User may still bring an individual claim for injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section 10.4 shall operate to prevent the parties from settling claims on a class-wide basis or otherwise coordinating claims filed in arbitration.

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM THE END USER MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE AMR DATA, THE SOFTWARE, THE AUTONOMY SERVICES OR THE AUTONOMY FEATURES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

For purposes of this Agreement, (a) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation;” (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; and (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (y) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. To the extent any translation of this Agreement is prepared in another language, such translation shall be for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement, and this Agreement in the English language shall control and prevail
