Terms and Conditions:  Annual Maintenance Contract

Proto3000 Inc. or Proto3000 (US) Inc., as identified in the Quote (the specific contracting entity being the “Company”) and the undersigned customer, by and through its affiliates, (“Customer”) have entered into this agreement (“Agreement”) for certain post-warranty maintenance services (the “Maintenance Services”) in respect, and with the objective, of maintaining optimal performance of Customer’s selected hardware (individually, the “Product” and collectively, the “Products”). 

Coverage hereunder is limited to (i) Product(s), identifiable only by serial # noted in the quote provided by the Company (the “Quote”), located at the address identified in the Quote; (ii) any other items contained in any addendum to this Agreement agreed to in writing. 

Service Level Features

Company shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Maintenance Services, which shall include the following, unless otherwise specified in the applicable maintenance service level package purchased by Customer:

Correcting, repairing and/or replacing, as applicable, a non-conforming or defective Product, as determined by Company in its sole and unfettered discretion, which Product may include software embedded therein or otherwise licensed to Customer in connection with the sale or use of the Product, and any part thereof (excluding Consumables, as specified in Section 2 herein). 

Preventive maintenance performed by Company’s authorized technical representatives (“Technical Representative”) at factory-recommended maintenance intervals. Preventive maintenance procedures may be completed in conjunction with unscheduled or emergency service visits. 

Technical phone and email support available on business days, which shall mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, and/or statutory holiday in Ontario, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time (“Business Hours”). 

On-site service visits where Company determines, in its sole and unfettered discretion, that phone and email support cannot be rendered to resolve the problem, such visits shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Service Level Package. 

Priority service scheduling whereby Customer will receive priority scheduling of Technical Representative after a problem is reported to the Company call center by Customer and the need for an on-site service visit is determined by Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion. 

Manufacturer-developed software maintenance releases provided from time to time, during the Product’s life cycle, which means the term during which the Product is commissioned until it is eventually decommissioned, in Company’s sole and unfettered discretion (“Software Releases”). 

Other Product updates and/or modifications, as deemed necessary by Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion, will be installed when available throughout the maintenance term, which shall mean the annual term commencing on the Effective Date, as hereinafter defined, of this Agreement. 

User training courses are available at Company’s office or may be provided electronically at the election of the Company, applicable only where Customer is the original purchaser of the Product. Training shall be held at Company’s corporate headquarters or at Company’s regional offices, subject to the terms and conditions of the Service Level Package. 

Consumables and Spare Parts

Customer acknowledges that, unless otherwise provided in the Service Level Package, Maintenance Services, or the annual maintenance fee, this Agreement does not include the replacement of consumables and disposable materials, including without limitation, thermoplastics, resins, printing heads, light engines, projectors, build trays, milling tools, material discs, spindles, tool holders, timing belts, cleaning fluid, wiping cloths, gloves and other similar items (collectively, the “Consumables“), which Consumables Customer may purchase separately at Company’s then-current rates. In addition to any rights of the Company hereunder, the use of any unapproved Consumables will void any warranty or service obligations provided by the Company hereunder. 

Customer acknowledges that the applicable manufacturer, Company’s spare parts supplier, (the “Supplier”), will provide a warranty that all spare parts supplied and manufactured by the Supplier hereunder shall be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of ninety (90) days following installation thereof, and Customer acknowledges that spare parts may be reconditioned parts. 

Spare parts that have been certified by, but not manufactured by, the Supplier are provided by Company to Customer in “as is” and “where is” condition. Company’s liability in respect of such spare parts shall be limited only to amounts that are recovered by Company from the Supplier, under warranties provided by the Supplier, if any such warranties or amounts exist. 

Customer acknowledges that use of parts and/or Consumables not manufactured or certified by the Supplier may result in damage to Products. In the event that Company, acting reasonably, determines that damage to a Product has been caused by the use of parts and/or Consumables not manufactured by, and/or not certified by, the Supplier, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Company shall have the right to:
-(i) terminate Customer’s rights to Maintenance Services under this Agreement;
- (ii) terminate this Agreement; or 
- (iii) offer to diagnose and repair the Product, or its components, at Company’s then-current maintenance restoration rates. 

Customer further acknowledges and agrees that: 
- (i) the use of parts and/or Consumables not manufactured by, and/or not certified by, the Supplier, including without limitation, resins and filaments; and (ii) the tampering or altering of any spare parts may also disqualify Customer from receiving any discounts on Company’s support and Maintenance Services, parts and Consumables. 

Optional Products

Occasionally, the Company may, in its sole and unfettered discretion, recommend or provide third-party products to the Customer which the Company neither monitors nor has any control nor input. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Company provides access to such products ”as is” and “as available” without any warranties, representations or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. 

The Company shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to the Customer’s use of optional third-party products. Any use by the Customer of optional products recommended or provided by the Company is entirely at the Customer’s own risk and discretion and the Customer acknowledges and agrees to the terms on which products are provided by the relevant third-party provider(s). 

Customer Responsibilities

Customer, at its sole expense, and except as otherwise provided herein, shall (i) perform all routine maintenance procedures and maintain the Product and the prescribed conditions at its site in accordance with the user instructions provided with the Product at the time of purchase (the “User Instructions”) and the applicable law of Ontario; (ii) promptly install and maintain all Software Releases and procure any additional equipment or software that may be required for, or as a result of, such installation or maintenance, all in accordance with the User Instructions; (iii) provide Company with access to the Product during Business Hours; (iv) provide assistance, information, services, Consumables, and facilities as may be requested by Company to perform the Maintenance Services; and (v) return to Company at Customer’s sole cost and expense, within thirty (30) days of Company’s request, all replaced spare parts. 

Customer shall not, without Company’s prior written authorization, permit any person, other than an operator trained pursuant to the User Instructions, to operate the Product. 


Unless otherwise permitted in accordance with the User Instructions, Customer shall not: (i) permit any person, other than Company’s Technical Representative, to perform the Maintenance Services or other support or maintenance of the Product; or (ii) attempt any repair to, or replacement of, the Product. 

Customer shall be solely responsible for Product failures, as well as for the necessary remedies therefor, caused either directly or indirectly by: (i) acts or omissions of the Customer, its operators, employees, agents, or anyone for whom Customer, by law, is responsible, that are inconsistent with Customer’s obligations contemplated herein or in the User Instructions; or (ii) modification or replacement of, or repair to, the Product or any part thereof without Company’s prior written authorization. 

Company’s warranty obligations herein shall not apply to repair or replacement necessitated in whole or in part by: (i) fault or negligence of Customer, its operators, employees, agents or anyone for whom Customer, by law, is responsible; (ii) improper or unauthorized use of the Product, including without limitation, use of thermoplastics, resins or spare parts unauthorized by Company; (iii) installation, modification or repair not executed by Company or its Technical Representative; (iv) removal of the Product from the original installation site; (v) unusual stress, power failure or deviation from recommended maintenance procedures; or (vi) failure to maintain the prescribed conditions at the installation site and/or any other failure to comply with the User Instructions. 

Nothing in this Agreement shall require Company to provide any external electrical work; equipment reconditioning or refurbishing; repairs or adjustments due to abuse, modification, or alteration; equipment operation or maintenance, to the Products, such work being contrary to Company’s User Instructions.

Company shall not be required to perform any services or repairs due to external causes, including without limitation, fire, electrical damage, power surges, flood or other intervening catastrophic causes (collectively, the “Extraordinary Repairs”). 

Customer shall make at least one (1) of its Company-trained employees fully available to Company for purposes of assisting Company with any telephone or on-site Maintenance Services to be provided hereunder. 

Customer shall remain solely liable for ensuring that its data and files are adequately documented for backup purposes and Customer acknowledges and agrees that Company will not be liable for any lost data or any data reconstruction costs. 
The contents of this subsection 3.8 shall survive the expiration, termination or surrender of this Agreement, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary. 

Any services provided by Company and determined by Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion to be: (i) a service or repair not expressly stipulated in Section 1 of this Agreement; (ii) Extraordinary Repairs; and/or (iii) repairs required to be performed after Business Hours, shall be charged on a time and materials basis, in accordance with Company’s then-current repair rates. Customer acknowledges that information as respects Company’s repair rates is available through Company’s call center, and Customer further acknowledges and agrees that such rates shall be due and payable by Customer within thirty (30) days of receipt of Company’s invoice. 

Limitation of Liability

Notwithstanding the limited warranty provided by the Supplier as respects the spare parts at the time of purchase and the Supplier’s limited warranty set out in Subsection 2.2 and Subsection 2.3 of this Agreement, Company makes no further warranties of any kind, either express or implied, collateral or direct, as respects the spare parts, software, equipment, and/or any services performed in accordance with this Agreement, and Company expressly disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose for all spare parts, equipment and services provided herein. 

Customer acknowledges and agrees that, in no event, shall Company, or any third party engaged by Company to provide services in accordance with this Agreement, be liable for any indirect, consequential or special damages, including without limitation, any lost profits or downtime, any lost savings, or other special, incidental, consequential and/or liquidated exemplary, or any other damages however caused, notwithstanding that Company may have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Customer further acknowledges and agrees to accept a refund of the annual maintenance fee as liquidated damages and not as a penalty. Customer acknowledges that the acceptance of said refund is both reasonable and a material factor in establishing the maintenance rates herein, and that said rates would be significantly higher in the absence of Customer’s acceptance. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, the Parties agree that Company’s sole liability to Customer for any and all claims howsoever arising and related to the Agreement will be limited to $5,000. 
Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, the Company’s liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that its remedies herein, as well as the maximum liability of Company, or any third party engaged by Company to provide services in accordance with this Agreement, are strictly limited as expressly stated in this Section. 
Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Company from and against any claims, demands, losses, costs, damages, actions, suits or proceedings which may be brought or commenced by Customer or its affiliates. 

The term “Company”, as used in this Agreement, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of Company are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the specific entity identified as “Company” in the Quote, its affiliates and its authorized representatives at the time in question of the Products and Maintenance Services, and in the event of any transfer or assignment by Company of this Agreement, the Company, herein named, shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or assignment, of all liability as respects the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of the Company contained in this Agreement thereafter to be performed, it being intended hereby that the covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement on the part of the Company shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Company only during and in respect of its period prior to any transfer or assignment of this Agreement. 
The contents of this Section 4 shall survive the expiration, termination or surrender of this Agreement, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary. 

Maintenance Fees Renewal Term

Customer agrees to pay a one-time, non-refundable annual maintenance fee, for each Product that it wishes to enrol in this Agreement, plus all applicable taxes, prior to the Effective Date, which date shall mean the last day of the initial warranty term of the original purchased Product, or if Customer’s option to renew has been exercised, the first day of the Extension Period, as hereinafter defined, (the “Effective Date”), which shall entitle Customer to Maintenance Services for the duration of the purchased Term (1 or multi-year contract), commencing on said Effective Date. 

If a Monthly Payment Plan is offered by the Company and selected by the Customer, the Customer agrees to pay a non-refundable monthly maintenance fee in the amount set out in the signed purchase agreement (PCARE Quote), for each Product that it wishes to enrol in this Agreement, plus all applicable taxes, on the first day of each subsequent month following the “Effective Date”, which shall entitle Customer to Maintenance Services for the duration of the purchased Term (1 or multi-year contract), commencing on said Effective Date.

Agreement, following the expiration, termination or surrender of this Agreement.
