particular with regard to the Digital Weeding System, each subscription term shall automatically renew for
a term of the equal duration at the then current price, unless (a) either party gives the other written notice
of termination (which may be submitted through the Software/Hardware) at least thirty (30) days prior to
expiration of the then current subscription term, or (b) if Customer purchased a pre-paid charge to a certain
Product/Service, in particular with regard to the Digital Weeding System and/or the Software/Hardware,
through Zasso's e-commerce solution or (c) Customer opts out of automatic renewals through the Zasso e-
commerce solution of the then current subscription term, or (d) Customer opts out of automatic renewals
in a timely manner through another process, if any, prescribed by Zasso applicable to the
Software/Hardware; provided that if the initial subscription term was prorated to be less than 12 months,
then any renewal subscription terms shall be 12 months.
5. Condition of Products/Services, Technical Advice, use and processing
5.1 The condition of the Products/Services is to be assessed solely on the basis of the conditions described by
Zasso by means of product/services descriptions, specifications and labels. Public statements, promotions
and advertisements shall not be considered to provide information on the condition of Products/Services.
No assurances regarding a specific characteristic are provided by the information on products, application
or usage, nor by formulas, weight and measurement information.
5.2 Zasso provides its technical application advice orally, in writing and in test-based form to the best of its
knowledge, but this may only be considered non-binding information, including with regard to any third-
party proprietary rights, and such information shall not release the Customer from making an independent
assessment of the Products/Services delivered by Zasso to determine whether they are suitable for the
intended processes and purposes. The application, use and processing of Products/Services falls beyond
Zasso's scope of control and is therefore solely the Customer's responsibility.

of such increases by e-mail, and/or through the Software/Hardware, and/or other reasonable means. A new
order following such a price increase (including automatic renewal) will constitute confirmation of
Customer's acceptance of the price increase.

Zasso's account. Discounts may only be deducted on the basis of a special written agreement.

9.1 Intellectual Property Right. Customer acknowledges that it is obtaining only a limited right to the use of
the Digital Weeding System, in particular the Software/Hardware, and that no ownership rights are being

10. Warranty
10.1 Limited Warranty. Zasso warrants, for Customer's benefit only, that Zasso's Products/Services, in particular
the Software/Hardware, when used by Customer during the applicable term, will operate in substantial
conformity with its applicable documentation. Zasso's sole liability (and Customer's sole and exclusive
remedy) for any breach of this warranty will be, at no charge to Customer, for Zasso to use commercially
reasonable efforts to correct the reported non-conformity, or if Zasso determines such a remedy to be
impracticable, either party may terminate the applicable term and Customer will receive as its sole remedy
a refund of any fees Customer has pre-paid for the use of the Products/Services, in particular the
Software/Hardware for the terminated portion of the applicable term. The limited warranty set forth in this
section will not apply: (i) unless Customer makes a claim within thirty (30) days of the date on which
Customer first noticed the non-conformity, (ii) if the error was caused by misuse or unauthorized
modifications of the Software/Hardware, (iii) if the error was caused by Customer or third-party
Software/Hardware, or (iv) if the use and access was provided as part of a free offering or a trial
subscription.
10.2 Warranty Disclaimer. Except for the limited warranty described above, Zasso's Products/Services are
provided as they are. Neither Zasso nor its suppliers make any other warranties, express or implied,
statutory or otherwise, including but not, limited to warranties of title, non-infringement, merchantability,
or fitness for a particular purpose. Zasso does not warrant that Customer's use of the Products/Services, in
particular the Digital Weeding System and/or the Software/Hardware will be uninterrupted or error-free,
nor does Zasso warrant that it will review the Customer Data for accuracy or that it will preserve or maintain
the Customer Data without loss. Zasso will not be liable for delays, interruptions, software/hardware
failures or other problems inherent in use of the internet and electronic communications or other systems
outside the reasonable control of Zasso. Customer may have other statutory rights; however, the duration
of statutorily required warranties, if any, will be limited to the shortest period permitted by law.
10.3 High Risk Use. Zasso's Products/Services, in particular the Digital Weeding System and the
Software/Hardware, are not fault tolerant and are not designed, manufactured or intended for use in life
support, medical emergency, mission critical or other strict liability or hazardous activities ("High Risk

Page 6 of 10
for High Risk Activities, and agrees that Zasso will have no liability for use of Zasso's Products/Services
in High Risk Activities.
10.4 When using the Products/Services, Customer must immediately check, within the scope of what is
technically feasible and economically reasonable, the Products/Services as a whole and the presence of
damage and/or defects.
10.5 In the case of hidden defects, a written complaint must be submitted immediately following identification
of the defect, or else the Products/Services shall be considered accepted. The burden of proof that there is
a hidden defect lies with the Customer. Expired Products/Services shall be neither replaced nor credited.
10.6 Other Disclaimer. Zasso shall not be liable in any manner whatsoever for the use of the Digital Weeding
System and/or the Software/Hardware or Customer's reliance on or use of such models.
11. Limitation of Remedies and Damage
11.1 Consequential Damages Waiver. Except for excluded claims under this Agreement neither party (nor its
suppliers) shall have any liability arising out of or related to this Agreement for any loss of use, lost or
inaccurate data, lost profits, failure of security mechanisms, interruption of business, or any indirect,
special, incidental, reliance, or consequential damages of any kind, even if informed of the possibility of
such damages in advance.
11.2 Liability Cap. Zasso and its supplier’s entire liability to Customer arising out of or related to this Agreement
shall not exceed the amount actually paid by Customer to Zasso during the prior twelve (12) months under
this Agreement.
11.3 Nature of Claims and Failure of Essential Purpose. The parties agree that the waivers and limitations
specified in this Section apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort (including
negligence), strict liability or otherwise and will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in
this Agreement is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
12. International; Export Control
12.1 Zasso's Products/Services, in particular the Digital Weeding System and/or the Software/Hardware are
administered by Zasso or its affiliates from various places. By accepting this Agreement, Customer warrants
that it shall not conduct any use of the Products/Services, in particular with regard to the Digital Weeding
System and/or the Software/Hardware, in violation of the legal export and import restrictions.
12.2 Without limiting the foregoing: (a) Customer represents and warrants that it is not listed on any government
list of prohibited or restricted parties or located in (or a national of) a country that is subject to a government
embargo or that has been designated by the government as a terrorist supporting country; and (b) Customer
will not (and will not permit any of its users to) access or use the Products/Services, in particular the Digital
Weeding System and/or the Software/Hardware, in violation of any export embargo, prohibition or
restriction. Zasso may also make use of its foreign affiliates or one or more external Software/Hardware,
Software/Hardware providers to host the Software/Hardware. Consequently, data is collected, sent,
processed and stored, and may be collected, sent, processed and stored outside the country of origin.
Customer acknowledges that in the event of conflict of privacy laws or practices in the Customer's
jurisdiction and those in the domicile of the entity hosting the Software/Hardware, the law applicable in the
domicile of the hosting entity will have precedence at all times. Zasso makes no representation that the
Software/Hardware is appropriate or available for use in locations outside the location where it was sold,
and accessing them from territories where they are illegal or their use is prohibited. If Customer chooses to
access the Software/Hardware from locations outside the location where it was firstly sold, Customer does
so on its own initiative and is responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
12.3 Customer will defend, indemnify and hold Zasso and its affiliates harmless against any liability (including
attorney's fees) arising out of Customer's failure to comply with the terms of this section. Customer's failure
to comply with any term of this section constitutes a material breach of the Agreement and entitles Zasso
to immediately terminate a contract with regard to Customer's use of Products/Services, in particular with
regard to the Digital Weeding System and/or the Software/Hardware, in addition to any other remedy
available at law or equity.
13. Infringement of Proprietary Rights
Page 7 of 10
13.1 Zasso shall not be liable for the infringement of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other rights
where such infringement is due to the Customer's instructions or to a use of the Products/Services that Zasso
could not foresee or to changes made to the Products/Services by the Customer or on the Customer's
initiative. This particularly concerns cases in which, on the Customer's initiative, a particular product
package or label is delivered that could result in the infringement of name or trademark rights.
13.2 The Customer must inform Zasso in writing as soon as possible if a third party claims a proprietary right,
or asserts such a right on a judicial or extrajudicial basis, with regard to a product concerned by the
agreement. If the Customer culpably violates this obligation, it shall be liable to Zasso for any resulting
losses.
13.3 Zasso shall, at its own expense, (i) defend the Customer against any third-party claims asserting a direct
infringement of proprietary rights by the Products/Services delivered by Zasso, and (ii) indemnify the
Customer against compensation payments and other costs imposed on it by legal judgement where these
are directly and exclusively attributable to such infringement.
13.4 Zasso shall not be liable to the Customer if Zasso (i) is not promptly notified in writing of a claim, (ii) is
not granted the exclusive right to investigate, prepare, defend and handle the case, as well as the choice of
legal representation, and (iii) does not receive all reasonable support and cooperation from the Customer in
its relevant investigation, handling, preparation and defense activities. Zasso shall also cease to be liable if
the claim is asserted one year or more after the time of delivery.
13.5 If a product is subject to infringement proceedings such as described above, or if such proceedings are
probable in Zasso's opinion, Zasso may, at its discretion, (i) obtain the right for the Customer to further use
or sell the product, (ii) provide a replacement delivery, (iii) rework the product such that it no longer
infringes proprietary rights or (iv) withdraw from an agreement covering such a product. Any further rights
and claims in terms of reductions, withdrawal or compensation may only be based on this Agreement.
13.6 For claims for compensation, section 14 also applies. The Customer is not entitled to assert any further
claims regarding the actual or alleged infringement of proprietary rights or other industrial property rights
apart from the claims specified in this section 13.
14. Compensation
14.1 Regardless of the legal nature of asserted claims, Zasso shall only be liable for losses incurred by the
Customer due to deliberate or grossly negligent conduct on the part of Zasso. All other liability is excluded
as far as permissible under applicable law.
14.2 Zasso shall under no circumstances be liable to the Customer or others for indirect damage, consequential
damage, losses, costs or expenses that were not foreseeable at the time of concluding the agreement, in
particular for lost revenue or profit, delivery delays, work or production stoppages, the deterioration of
other goods, or on the basis of damage arising from other causes, regardless of whether this is caused by
the violation of guarantees, contractual violations, negligence or in any other way.
14.3 The liability exclusions and restrictions according to this section 14 further apply to the same extent with
regard to the activities of Zasso's staff, employees, workers, representatives and agents. They also apply to
the personal liability thereof.
15. Obligation to disclose Risks, Side Effects, etc.
15.1 Obligation to Disclose. The Customer must comply with all applicable legal and official requirements for
the disclosure of risks, side effects and harmful unintended reactions that occur through use of the
Products/Services as intended, and any similar occurrences, which it must communicate to the appropriate
parties. In addition, even if the Customer is not subject to legal or official duties of disclosure, it must
always inform Zasso of such occurrences in writing via email (contato@zasso.com.br) under the subject
heading "Adverse Event Reporting".
16. Term and Termination or other Cessation of the Agreement
16.1 Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date and expires on the date of expiration or
termination of all subscription terms.
Page 8 of 10
16.2 Termination for Cause. Without prejudice to other contractual and legal claims, Zasso may terminate or
withdraw from this Agreement in full or in part, and with immediate effect, by means of a written notice,
without being liable towards the other party, if
a. insolvency proceedings are initiated concerning the other party's assets, or if restructuring,
liquidation or dissolution proceedings are initiated. This applies both in the event of voluntary
proceedings initiated by the other party itself and in the event of compulsory proceedings, when an
insolvency or forced administrator is appointed or an assignment is made in favor of the other party's
creditors (and not dismissed within sixty [60] days thereafter);
b. the other party ceases operation without a successor;
c. there are major changes in the other party's capital or ownerships circumstances, and the party freely
judges that these changes make further execution of the agreement unreasonable;
d. there are material breaches which the other party fails to cure within thirty (30) days after written
notice.
16.3 Effect of Termination. If Zasso asserts its right of termination in accordance with this section and it has
already fulfilled its obligations arising from the Agreement, all payments to be made under this Agreement
shall become due immediately. In the event of termination, withdrawal or expiry of an agreement, the
provisions which, in spirit and meaning, should continue to apply beyond the duration of the agreement
shall continue to be valid. Upon any expiration or termination of the agreement, Customer shall
immediately cease any and all use of and access to the Products/Services, and/or Digital Weeding System,
and/or Software/Hardware (including any and all related Zasso-technology) and delete (or, at Zasso's
request, return) any and all Zasso Software/Hardware, parts thereof, passwords or access codes and any
other Zasso Confidential Information in its possession. Customer acknowledges that following termination
it shall have no further access to any Customer Data and that Zasso may delete any such data as may have
been stored by Zasso at any time.
17. Confidential Information
17.1 The parties may disclose to each other information identified at the time of disclosure as confidential or
which should be reasonably known by the receiving party to be confidential ("Confidential Information"),
which may include information concerning their respective businesses and technology. Zasso’s
Products/Services, in particular the Digital Weeding System and the Software/Hardware, are Confidential
Information of Zasso. Except as authorized herein, the receiving party will (i) hold in confidence and not
disclose any Confidential Information to third parties and (ii) not use Confidential Information for any
purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under this Agreement. The receiving
party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives
having a need to know, provided that such representatives are bound to confidentiality obligations no less
protective of the disclosing party than this section and that the receiving party remains responsible for
compliance by any such representative with the terms of this section. These restrictions on disclosure will
not apply to any information that: (a) is or becomes generally known or publicly available through no act
or omission of the receiving party; (b) is known by the receiving party without confidentiality restriction at
the time of receiving such information, as shown by written records; or (c) is furnished to the receiving
party by a third party without confidentiality restriction. The receiving party may make disclosures to the
extent required by law or court order, provided the receiving party notified the disclosing party in advance
and cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment. The receiving party acknowledges that
