Metron Sensor and Data Services Terms

Effective November 15, 2025

These Sensor and Data Services Terms (“Terms”) and the documents described in the Order of Precedence below, including applicable Orders, form the “Agreement” between Metron Farnier, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company having a principal place of business at 335 Centennial Parkway, Suite C, Louisville, CO 80027 and its Affiliates (“we/us/our”) and the customer (“you/your/yours”) who signs an applicable Order, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Your Order confirms that you own, manage, or are otherwise responsible for a Property and have legal authority to bind the applicable owners, managers, or other responsible parties for each identified Property to the Agreement, and that they are individually and collectively responsible for complying with the Agreement. These Terms apply even if they are not specifically referenced on your Order. You and we may be individually referred to as a “party” or collectively as the “parties”.

Order of Precedence. Agreement documents will control over conflicting terms in the following order:
1. Order. An Order specifying meters, monitors, installation, data services, pricing, term, and other transaction specific provisions.
2. Current Agreement. The current term of a previously signed agreement or bid award. Multi-year agreements or bid awards will continue until the original expiration date; renewable agreements will expire at the end of their current term and be replaced by these Terms.
3. These Terms. The Order and Current Agreement described above will control over conflicting provisions of these Terms, but these Terms will add applicable provisions that are not present in either the Order or Current Agreement.
Sensors and Data Services Definitions.
1. Sensors. We sell or license new or replacement meters (meters, submeters, hydrant meters) and cellular data transmission equipment (monitors, registers) (which together we call “Sensors”) for installation on each specified site (“Property”) described on your Order(s).
2. Data Services. We process and analyze water consumption information from the Sensors through our proprietary data monitoring and analytics software providing information such as consumption details for billing, leak detection, and usage analyses (“Data Services”) which we provide to you by subscription to a user-accessible dashboard and/or through direct water management notifications, depending on your specified Data Services. Your subscription provides you with a non-transferable right to access or receive the Data Services for your internal business purposes for the period (“Term”) specified in an Order.
Other Definitions.
1. “Affiliate” means any entity that is controlled by or is under common control with a party, where “control” or “controlled” means mean that at least fifty percent (50%) of the Affiliate’s capital, assets, voting stock, profits, interests, or similar participation rights are owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by another entity.
2. “Order” means a communication such as a document, accepted quotation, purchase order, or Agreement exhibit identifying you and specifying the quantities, types, installation (by us or you) of Sensors, each applicable Property, Data Services subscription details, the Term, and applicable charges or fees.
3. “Real Estate” customers are commercial entities who own, manage, or otherwise operate a Property such as manufactured housing communities, commercial buildings such as offices, shops, or apartments, educational institutions, and property investors. Real Estate customers license the Sensors and subscribe to the Data services for each specified Property.
4. “Utility” customers are public entities chartered by the applicable government authority to provide water services to a specified location. Utility customers purchase and own the Sensors and subscribe to the Data Services for each specified Property.
5. “Marks” means registered or unregistered trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, service names, or other proprietary markings.
6. “Occupant” means a resident or tenant of a Property identified an Order.
Sensor Installation.
1. Pre-Installation Requirements. In order to provide the Data Services, we will supply the Sensors specified on your Order for a Property. We may provide you with a pre-installation check list to be completed before Sensor Installation. Water supply plumbing must ½”, ⅝”, ¾”, or 1” copper, PVC, PEX, or black plastic (no galvanized or lead) with working shut-offs.
2. Change Orders. Either party may propose changes in the scope of the installation (a “Change Order”), but except as otherwise provided, neither party will be bound by any proposed change until authorized representatives of each party have agreed on that Change Order in writing, including by email.
3. Customer Self-installation. You are responsible for all aspects of the Sensor installation including compliance with current applicable requirements and for any damage to the Sensors or any other property as a result of the installation.
4. Metron Installation. We will install the Sensors on a Property as described on the applicable Order at your designated installation points in compliance with the currently applicable installation rules. You will facilitate our access to a Property, cooperate with any reasonable requests from us related to the installation of the Sensors, and you are responsible for obtaining or confirming any necessary requirements for Sensor installation. We are not responsible for any damage to Sensors or to a Property to the extent that the damage is caused by your failure to adhere to our requests or instructions.
  1. We may charge a fee to remove metal skirting. We are not liable for water damage due to existing faulty connection fittings. In case of leakage or other defects caused by our installations, you or your occupant should notify us immediately for correction.
  2. We will leave existing heat tape in place. As Sensors are installed, we will move and reset existing heat tape as needed. We will replace disturbed installation and we will install new insulation wrapped around the meter and on the water supply line immediately adjacent to both sides of the meters. We do not upgrade or reinsulate entire areas of supply line as part of a Standard Installation.
  3. Meter Jackets. We will recommend meter jackets (freeze protection) in appropriate locations and will provide and install meter jackets when specified on an Order. Meter jacket availability is not a condition for completion as defined below but may affect our liability/responsibility in a warranty claim.
  4. Standard Installation.
    1. Replacement. If a meter is currently installed, we will install the new Sensor to replace the old meter if the existing meter fittings are usable.
    2. Cut-In. If there is no meter currently installed, we will cut into a serviceable water line, and install new meter couplings using no more than one set of adapters.
  5. Non-Standard Installation.
    1. Non-Standard Serviceable. Any installation with unusable meter fittings or shutoff valves (such as incompatible or corroded), or that requires additional parts or modification to water lines (such as cutting or replumbing) will be considered Non-Standard Serviceable. Metron installers will make the necessary corrections for the Replacement or Cut-In Sensor installation.
    2. Non-Standard Unserviceable. A Property with improper supply lines such as lead or galvanized, in significant disrepair, or with any safety hazard determined at the time of installation (such as raw sewage, standing water, or other unsanitary or unsafe conditions existing where a Sensor is to be installed) will be considered Non-Standard Unserviceable and will require remediation before installation can begin.
    3. Any Non-Standard Installations will require Change Orders to describe corrective action and adjust the installation charges and completion schedules accordingly.
5. Completion. An installation will be deemed complete when the Sensor is reading water consumption and is visible in the Data Services.
6. Maintenance. You will report Sensor problems such as malfunctions and breakdowns to us promptly on discovery. We will assess the failure of the device and provide replacements for any non-functioning Sensors. If the Sensor problem is covered by the Sensor warranty, we will provide replacement Sensors at no charge. If the problem is not covered by the Sensor warranty, such as freezing, abuse, or tampering, we will bill you for replacement Sensors, including installation where applicable.
7. Subcontractors. We may engage subcontractors to provide or assist with Sensor installations under separate agreements that will bind them to the applicable terms of this Agreement.
8. Unable to Connect (“UTC”) locations. When a Property meter location is inaccessible or an occupant declines to provide the necessary access for us to install Sensors required to provide the Data Services after reasonable (or contractually-specified) efforts at contact, we may choose to either (a) receive a reasonable extension of any contractual deadline for completion or “substantial completion” without penalty, or (b) designate the installation location as UTC and remove it from the list of Sensor installations needed for substantial completion or completion of the installation project. We may designate a UTC location without a Change Order. If you are later able to arrange access to a UTC location after removal from the installation list, you and we may mutually agree on a Change Order with a custom installation charge for each location for subsequent Sensor installation) and add the location(s) to Client’s Data Services Subscription.
Fees and Payments. (NOTE: Any terms in the Agreement regarding fees, payments, or refunds apply only to Orders directly between you and us, and do not apply to transactions where you have ordered and paid for Sensors or Sensor licenses and Data Services subscriptions through one of our Distributors.)

Invoicing. We will invoice you for Sensor and Data Services fees for each Property specified on an applicable Order. Sales tax will be added as applicable unless you provide us with a tax exemption certificate with your Order. The Order will specify applicable Data Services subscription fees for Property based on the number of Sensors, the number/types of users, and/or the specified Data Services. We may adjust hardware prices on future orders to reflect the impact of any tariffs, duties, or similar governmental charges imposed, or manufacturer cost increases, adjust Data Services subscription fees to reflect service provider cost increases after your Order date or substitute equivalently functioning Sensors to promptly fill an Order based on our available inventory.
Payment. Our invoices are due and payable within thirty (30) days after the invoice date. You may pay by ACH, Wire, or credit card (including auto-payment by either method). We will add processing charges for any payment method other than by ACH or Wire, such as credit card, check, or customer portal. We may charge an overdue payment fee of one percent (1%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law for any undisputed invoice, whichever is less. We may suspend pending Sensor installations and Data Services if any undisputed invoice remains open and unpaid for more than sixty (60) days from the date of invoice after we’ve notified you, and will proceed with the installations and restore the Data Services when you bring the account current. We are not responsible for any loss of income or other damages resulting from our suspension of any services due to your overdue payments.
Delay. You may not change or cancel your Sensor delivery after you sign an Order but, if necessary, you may request up to two (2) month delay, after Sensor delivery, for installation, activation, and commencement of your Data Services subscription fees. After the delay, we will invoice for Sensor activation and the Data Services subscription fees for the agreed Term.

Real Estate customers who terminate their Sensor licenses and Data Services for a Property before the end of the Agreement or Order term, will pay us a cancellation fee of $360 per Sensor, reduced by one percent (1%) of that total for each elapsed month of the Agreement or Order for that Property (“Cancellation Fee”) and you will promptly return all Sensors to us at your expense. There will be no Cancellation Fee and Sensor return if you divest a Property to a new owner who signs a new Agreement as provided in the “Assignment” section of these Terms.
Confidentiality.
1. “Confidential Information” means all information or data, whether or not in tangible form, disclosed or otherwise made available in connection with this Agreement by one party (the “Discloser”) to the other party (the “Recipient”), that the Discloser has marked as confidential or proprietary, has identified in writing as confidential or proprietary within thirty (30) days of disclosure to the Recipient, or that would reasonably be expected to be confidential under the circumstances. Our Confidential Information includes all proprietary information relating to the Sensors and Data Services including our Sensor and software design and development and the terms of this Agreement, including pricing information. Your Confidential Information shall include your content and proprietary business practices. However, Confidential Information does not include information that (i) is already known to Recipient at the time of disclosure, (ii) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or failure of the Recipient or any third party with a confidentiality obligation, or (iii) is independently developed by Recipient without using Discloser’s Confidential Information, or (iv) is received from a third party without breaching any confidentiality obligation.
2. A Recipient shall use reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use or copying of the Discloser’s Confidential Information. Except where specifically allowed by this Agreement, a Recipient may only disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to (1) Recipient’s employees, agents, and legal or financial advisors who have a need to know in the course of their duties and (2) as required by law or court order, provided the Recipient promptly notifies the Discloser and cooperates in any effort by the Discloser to seek an order protecting confidential treatment. Recipient must protect any disclosure of Confidential Information to any third party with confidentiality requirements equivalent to these, in a written agreement signed before the disclosure. If you participate in a group event that we have sponsored, these Confidentiality terms shall apply to any Confidential Information disclosed by any group participant, and we may provide a copy of this Confidentiality section to any Discloser seeking to enforce its provisions. These confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations shall continue to apply to Confidential Information, including trade secrets, for as long as required by law and for as long as the Discloser maintains it as confidential. However, you or we may disclose the terms of this Agreement to existing and potential investors, lenders, and acquirers and their legal or financial advisors.
3. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall promptly return or destroy the other party’s Confidential Information that it possesses or controls. If requested by a Discloser, an authorized representative of the Recipient shall certify in writing that Discloser’s Confidential Information has been destroyed. This obligation to return or destroy Confidential Information or copies does not extend to automatically generated computer back up or archival copies generated in the ordinary course of Recipient’s information systems procedures, provided that Recipient shall make no further use of Confidential Information contained in those copies.
4. Whistleblower exclusion. An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or for disclosing a trade secret in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding if the filing is made under seal. An individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose a trade secret to that individual’s attorney and may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except as required by a court order.
