Customer acknowledges that refurbished Products are not FDA-cleared, do not meet the strict manufacturing and quality controls of Rohrer, and may result in patient safety concerns. Customer further acknowledges that Rohrer is the only authorized service provider for the Products, unless specified otherwise, and that use of an unauthorized service provider will immediately void any and all warranties (including, without limitation, the Manufacturer’s Warranty and/or Extended Warranty), or Service Agreements (as each of those terms are defined below) in effect.

In addition, because Rohrer is unable to regulate the quality of refurbished Products, Customer acknowledges that Rohrer is required to notify the FDA of any known violations, as well as any individuals suspected of being involved in these unlawful practices. Customer shall cause its personnel and agents to comply with these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations in connection with any use, storage, and maintenance of the Products, and shall be liable for all breaches and non-compliances hereunder. Customer acknowledges that it relies solely on its own skill and judgement in all respects and in particular: (i) in its decision to purchase the Products or use of the Products, and (ii) that the Products are fit for the purpose for which they are being acquired. It shall be Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure that the Products are fit for the purpose intended. Rohrer disclaims all responsibility and liability for any products or equipment purchased by Customer or by Rohrer on Customer’s behalf from any third parties.

6. Security/Access:
As security for the payment of the purchase price of the Products and performance in full of all the obligations of Customer under these Terms, Customer hereby grants to Rohrer, and Rohrer shall retain, a purchase money security interest in and to any Products presently in the possession of, or hereafter acquired by, Customer, and if Customer shall have sold the Products to any third party, the proceeds of resale (or claim thereto) shall belong to Rohrer. Customer hereby appoints Rohrer as its attorney in fact to file any document, including without limitation a UCC-1 financing statement, with any state or other governmental authority, as is necessary or desirable to perfect, continue, modify or terminate this security interest. Customer grants to Rohrer and Rohrer reserves the unconditional and irrevocable right to enter the premises where the Products are located and take all necessary action to take control of and repossess any of the Products.

- Limitation of Liability: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ROHRER, ITS AFFILIATES, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, OR EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS (“ROHRER PARTIES”) BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS, SERVICES, ORDER FORM, THESE TERMS, OR THE SALE OF ANY PRODUCTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, EVEN IF ROHRER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

- Compliance with Laws. Customer shall comply with all applicable laws in the conduct of its business and all Rohrer instructions, labels, applicable laws and regulatory obligations in connection with Customer’s purchase, use, handling, and storage of the Products. Federal, state or local law may restrict the sale of a Product to or at the order of a physician, healthcare professional, dentist, veterinarian or other practitioner licensed in the jurisdiction in which such Product is used or ordered (each, a “Restricted Product”). Any Customer that orders any Restricted Product warrants and represents either that (a) Customer is a practitioner licensed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Customer practices to use, or order the use of, each Restricted Product ordered by such Customer or its designee (an “Authorized Practitioner”), or (b) Customer is purchasing each Restricted Product pursuant to a prescription or other order issued by an Authorized Practitioner.

No communication (written or oral) that the Customer has received from Rohrer, its parents, employees, principals, or agents shall be deemed to be an assurance or guarantee that Customer or any third party can legally operate or use the Products and Customer is not relying on any such communication in choosing to purchase the Products. Customer further agrees to ensure that at all times, any Customer Personnel allowed to access or use any Product have been properly and adequately trained to use such Product by Customer. Customer will ensure that, when necessary, each Product will only be operated or utilized under proper supervision or at the required direction of a medical or health care practitioner in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Customer accepts sole responsibility for ensuring that any operator of a Product is licensed and qualified to use and operate the Product safely and properly in a clinical setting and to perform medical procedures in accordance with all laws, rules, regulations and guidelines applicable to such Product in the jurisdiction in which the Product will be used. Further, no amounts paid or payable hereunder are intended, nor shall be construed to be, an inducement or payment for referral of or recommending referral of, patients by Customer to Rohrer, or by Rohrer to Customer, or for ordering, leasing or purchasing any item, product or service covered by any governmental or private health care payment program. If Customer files with the FDA an FDA Form 3500A or a similar form or medical device report with respect to any Product or any part of a Product, then Customer will simultaneously provide a copy to Rohrer. Customer shall be responsible for maintaining all permits, licenses, registrations, certifications and approvals necessary for its intended use of the Products. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is the intent of Customer and Rohrer to comply with the Anti-Kickback Statute (42 U.S.C. §1320a-7b(b)) and the Discount Safe Harbor and Warranties Safe Harbor regulations set forth in 42 C.F.R. 1001.952(h) and (g), respectively. The prices listed on an Order Form may constitute a ‘discount or other reduction in price’ under the Anti-Kickback Statute. Customer acknowledges that, if applicable, Customer will be obligated to fully and accurately report all discounts or other price reductions, including warranty items, in the costs claimed or charges made under any Federal or State healthcare program and provide information upon request to third-party reimbursement programs.

Customer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Products represent and include valuable intellectual property owned by or licensed to Rohrer, and that Rohrer and/or its licensors retain the entire right, title, and interest in and to the intellectual property (including without limitation all copyrights and improvements thereto) related to any item of hardware, software and related documentation which Rohrer provides to Customer, and Customer shall not itself, or grant others a right to: (a) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of any such software; (b) remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trade secret, trademark, patent, or other proprietary rights notice affixed to or displayed on any such software or related documentation, or affixed to or printed on any of its factory packaging; (c) challenge any right, title, or interest of Rohrer in or to its intellectual property rights related to the Products; or (d) take any other action that may interfere with any of Rohrer’s rights in or to its intellectual property rights related to the Products, including Rohrer’s ownership or exercise thereof. Nothing in these Terms shall be construed as an assignment, grant, option, license or other transfer of any right, title or interest whatsoever in any intellectual property of Rohrer or its licensors to Customer or any third party. Customer is responsible for obtaining all requisite software licenses related to any Products supplied hereunder. Customer’s use of such third party software shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable third party license agreements and Rohrer disclaims all liability thereunder. Customer acknowledges that its unauthorized use of any of Rohrer’s or its licensor’s intellectual property would cause immediate, material, and irreparable harm to Rohrer. In the event of any violations of this Section, in addition to any other remedies available to Rohrer, Rohrer may refuse to sell future Products to Customer or refuse to service any Product, without any liability to Customer. Customer agrees that all Rohrer-furnished information, manuals, and all other materials which are identified as “confidential” information or should reasonably be deemed confidential, contain Rohrer’s valuable proprietary information, and Customer shall hold such information in confidence and not use, reproduce or distribute it except to Customer’s employees (and agents who agree to this provision) who may use it strictly as part of their duties.
- Miscellaneous. If any provision of these Terms, including any attachments, shall be held or made invalid by a court decision, statute or rule, or shall be otherwise rendered invalid, the remainder of these Terms shall not be affected thereby. No delay or failure on the part of Rohrer in exercising any right, privilege or remedy, shall operate as a waiver of such, or any other, right, privilege or remedy, and no waiver whatsoever shall be valid against Rohrer unless made in writing by the duly authorized representative of Rohrer. These Terms, together with the Order Form, all attachments (including, if applicable, the Warranty Terms), any financing or internal payment plan agreements between the parties related to the Products, and any effective Service Agreement effective between the parties, collectively contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the subject matter hereof. Rohrer’s performance under these Terms shall be excused for any delay or inability resulting directly or indirectly from economic downturn, supply chain disruptions, material shortages, cyberattacks, foreign or domestic embargo, product detention, seizure, severe weather, act of God, insurrection, war, terrorism, the passage or enactment of any law or order interfering with manufacture or delivery of products, government action, public health emergencies, riot, strike or other casualty or acts of nature or man that are beyond the control of Rohrer.These Terms will be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States of America.

If the dispute or controversy remains unresolved for a period longer than thirty (30) days the parties shall submit the dispute or controversy to be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and all such arbitration proceedings shall occur in New York County, NY. Judgment on the award rendered by one or three arbitrators (as determined by Rohrer) may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction thereof. Nothing herein shall prevent Rohrer from seeking provisional, injunctive, or emergency relief prior to proceeding to arbitration. The arbitrator(s) will have no authority to award punitive damages, and their decision must be consistent with these Terms. Each party will pay its own expenses and attorney’s fees. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in these Terms, or the Order Form shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture or other form of joint enterprise, employment or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever. Customer may not assign, transfer, delegate or subcontract any of its rights or obligations under these Terms or any Order Form without Rohrer’s prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation not in conformance with this clause is null and void. These Terms are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms.
