TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE

Version 1.1 [Rev. January 2019]

These Terms & Conditions of Sale (“Terms”) govern your use of Trimble’s eCommerce solution (the “eCommerce Solution”) to purchase Products and Software (as each are defined below) and are intended to supplement Trimble’s Website Terms of Use, which, for the avoidance of doubt, also apply to your use of the eCommerce Solution. In these Terms, “Trimble”, “we” or “us” means the applicable Trimble entity as set forth in Section 11 (Contracting Party; Governing Law; Venue). These Terms apply to the purchases of Products and Software from the eCommerce Solution only and not to any other purchases of Trimble products, software or services. Your use of Products and Software is governed by separate product agreements (“User Agreements”), which include, without limitation, End User License Agreements (EULAs) for Software, terms of service for SaaS (as defined below), etc. If there is a conflict or inconsistency between any provisions in these Terms and those of a User Agreement or the Website Terms of Use, the provisions of the User Agreement or the Website Terms of Use will control, unless otherwise expressly set forth in these Terms. These Terms cover the direct purchase of Products and Software from Trimble for use by you, and do not apply to any purchases of Products or Software for resale or incorporation into (or integration with) your own products and services.

1.Definitions. "Products" means hardware products purchased from the eCommerce Solution and any related documentation. "Software" means any software, library, utility, tool, or other computer or program code purchased from the eCommerce Solution, in object (binary) or source-code form, and any related documentation. Software includes Product firmware, software locally installed on your systems, and software accessed by you through the Internet or other remote means (such as websites, portals, and software-as-a-service and other "cloud-based" solutions (“SaaS”)).

2.Payment. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Section 2 (Payment) and the provisions of a User Agreement, the provisions of this Section 2 will control.

2.1. All payment for Products and Software will be made using a credit card following an order confirmation on the eCommerce Solution, and you agree to Trimble charging your credit card the amount set forth on the order confirmation. You will make payment in the currency indicated on the order confirmation. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable User Agreement, there will be no refunds of any fees paid for Products or Software.

2.2. All credit card information will be collected and used by Trimble in accordance with our online Privacy Statement.

2.3. For all purchases of Products and Software, you are required to pay the fees shown in the applicable order confirmation, as well as all applicable sales taxes, Value Added Tax, export or import charges, transportation or insurance charges, customs and duty fees, personal property taxes or similar charges shown on the order confirmation.

2.4. Certain Products and Software may require you to purchase products or services from third parties in order to use them (e.g., you may need to purchase pre-paid communications carrier services in order to utilize certain Software). If these third party products and/or services are not included in your order confirmation, you will need to purchase them separately from the applicable third party providers. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) you are solely responsible for the purchase and use of such third-party products and/or services and (ii) Trimble shall have no liability related thereto for your use or the failure of any such third-party products and/or services.

3.Product Delivery; Acceptance; Inspection; Returns. Unless otherwise specified in an applicable User Agreement, the following shall apply:

3.1 Delivery. Delivery times for Products are established when Trimble accepts your order in writing. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet your requested delivery dates, unless you are in default under these Terms or our performance is otherwise excused. We are not liable for late or delayed delivery. Late delivery is not a basis for your cancellation of any order. Title and risk of loss or damage to Products passes to you when we deliver the Products to the shipping carrier ("Delivery"). Unless otherwise agreed, we will deliver the Product freight prepaid, provided that you pay or reimburse us for all applicable costs of carriage, freight, insurance (if applicable), taxes, duty and other related shipping charges. We have the right to make partial deliveries.

3.2. Acceptance, Inspection, Notice of Nonconformance. Your acceptance of ordered Products is deemed to occur upon our Delivery of the Products to the shipping carrier. You are responsible for giving prompt written notice of identified damage or nonconformance of Products. You must inspect the condition of the packaging and the Products upon receipt and indicate any evident damage to the carrier on the delivery note, have the carrier's agent sign the document and, within two (2) days of receipt of the damaged or non-conforming Products, send all documents by e-mail or fax to our facility from which shipment took place, together with the carrier's references. Concealed Product damage claims must be made by you to the carrier directly and you must also provide us with written notice and a copy of any such claim within 10 days of receipt of the affected Products. Likewise you must notify us within 10 days of receipt of incorrect Products. If you retain the Product without giving notice within the designated notice period, you will be deemed to have waived your right to reject the Product.

3.3. Return of Product. All Product returns are subject to our prior written consent and must comply with our product return (RMA) procedures then in effect. For general information log on to http://support.trimble.com and submit a support case detailing your question. Before returning or exchanging a Product, you must contact us directly to obtain an authorization number to include with your return. You must return Products to us in their original or equivalent packaging, and you are responsible for risk of loss, as well as shipping fees back to Trimble. Products received but not eligible for return will be sent back to you freight collect. For approved returns you will receive credit equal to the lesser of the Product’s invoice price or its current replacement value, less any applicable charges or fees.

4.Software Acceptance; Subscriptions. Unless otherwise specified in an applicable User Agreement, the following shall apply:

4.1. Acceptance. Your acceptance of ordered Software is deemed to occur when the Software is activated or otherwise made available for your access or use, whichever date is earlier. Software may be delivered electronically at Trimble’s option.

4.2.Software Subscriptions.

4.2.1. Software Subscriptions. Certain Software offerings (including without limitation SaaS offerings) are provided on a subscription basis. For such Software, you will pay for a set term (“Subscription Term”) upfront. Charges for additional subscriptions or seats purchased by you or your organization and activated during any Subscription Term may be pro-rated to allow Trimble to bill for all of your subscriptions on the same date. At expiration of each Subscription Term, notwithstanding anything in the User Agreement to the contrary, the subscription will automatically renew for additional Subscription Terms of equal duration at the then-current pricing unless you (A) affirmatively opt out of such renewal prior to the date of such expiration via (i) via the Software (if such opt out is available through the Software itself) or (ii) the eCommerce Solution, or (B) opt out in a timely manner by some other process, if any, prescribed by Trimble applicable to such subscription; provided that in the event your initial Subscription Term was pro rated to be less than 12 months, any renewal Subscription Terms shall be 12 months. You authorize Trimble to charge your credit card for any renewals, and you must maintain current credit card information with Trimble at all times. In the event your credit card information is not current and this results in your failure to pay in a timely manner, in addition to any of its other rights or remedies, Trimble reserves the right to suspend or terminate your subscription and access and/or license to the Software.

4.2.2. Fee Adjustments. Trimble may increase the fees it charges for its Software subscriptions at any time, but any increase in the fees will not take effect until the beginning of your next Subscription Term. Trimble may provide notice of such increases through the Software subscription, including without limitation via Section 14(B) below. Your renewal of your Software subscription following such a pricing increase (including automatic renewal) will constitute confirmation of your acceptance of the pricing increase.
