2. Terms Applicable to Leased Hardware Devices
2.1 Lease Terms. Subject to the terms of the Underlying Agreement and this Leased Hardware Addendum, for the Lease Period, OT hereby agrees to lease to Lessee, and Lessee hereby agrees to lease from OT, the Hardware Device(s). Lessee acknowledges that all fees for the Hardware Device(s) are guaranteed and non-refundable, except as otherwise provided in this Leased Hardware Addendum.
2.2 Title. The Hardware Device(s) is not sold to the Lessee and no transfer of title in the Hardware Device(s) is effectuated. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the Hardware Device shall not be deemed to be a fixture of any part of Lessee’s premises.
2.3 Delivery; Risk of Loss. Risk of loss, theft, damage or destruction of the Hardware Device(s) passes to Lessee upon Delivery to Lessee or a third party agent of Lessee. When Lessee receives the Hardware Device(s), Lessee agrees to inspect such Hardware Device(s) promptly and advise OT immediately if the Hardware Device(s) is not in good working order. Lessee must keep the Hardware Device(s) adequately insured to protect both OT’s and Lessee’s respective interests in the Hardware Device(s) during the Lease Period. The Hardware Device shall remain at the Leased Location at the sole risk of the Lessee during the Lease Period and during any additional lease term which the Hardware Device is in the possession, custody or control of the Lessee. The return of any Hardware Device to OT is at the sole risk of the Lessee pursuant to the terms in Section 5. No loss, theft, damage, or destruction of the Hardware Device during such time shall relieve Lessee of the obligation to pay the applicable fees or to comply with any other obligation under this Leased Hardware Addendum. OT's delivery dates are estimates only and subject to OT's timely receipt of supplies. OT is not liable for delays in delivery or for partial or early deliveries. Lessee will accept all deliveries of a Hardware Device(s) regardless of when those deliveries are made and regardless of whether the delivery is a partial delivery or made in full. Lessee may not cancel any Order based on delayed or partial delivery of a Hardware Device(s).
2.4 Warranties. OT IS PROVIDING THE HARDWARE DEVICE(S) TO LESSEE “AS-IS”. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT OT DOES NOT MANUFACTURE OR SUPPLY THE HARDWARE DEVICES(S) NOR DOES OT REPRESENT THE MANUFACTURER OR SUPPLIER. OT MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE. OT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE HARDWARE DEVICE(S) WILL OPERATE UNINTERRUPTED OR WILL BE FREE FROM DEFECTS OR ERRORS, OR THAT ANY HARDWARE DEVICE(S) WILL MEET (OR ARE DESIGNED TO MEET) YOUR BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE MANUFACTURER OR SUPPLIER, PROVIDED NO EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED AND THIS AGREEMENT IS STILL IN EFFECT, OT SHALL MAKE AVAILABLE TO LESSEE THE BENEFIT OF ALL MANUFACTURER AND/OR SUPPLIER WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE HARDWARE DEVICES(S) PROVIDED TO OT BY THE SUPPLIER AND/OR MANUFACTURER OF THE HARDWARE DEVICES(S) (SUBJECT TO ANY RESTRICTIONS, LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS SET OUT THEREIN) FOR THE LEASE PERIOD.
IN ORDER FOR LESSEE TO UTILIZE THE BENEFIT OF ANY APPLICABLE MANUFACTURER AND/OR SUPPLIER WARRANTY MADE AVAILABLE TO OT, LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY ISSUES RELATING TO THE OPERATION OF THE HARDWARE DEVICE(S) SHALL BE RAISED THROUGH OT SUPPORT WHO SHALL LIASE WITH THE APPLICABLE MANUFACTURER AND/OR SUPPLIER.
3. Lessee's Responsibility for Hardware Devices

4. Remedies
If Lessee is in default of any of the terms of the Underlying Agreement or this Leased Hardware Addendum, including (without limitation) Section 3.2, OT shall have the right to exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a) enter upon Lessee’s premises and, without any court order or other process of law, to repossess and remove the Hardware Device, or render the Hardware Device unusable without removal, either with or without notice to Lessee. Lessee hereby waives any trespass or right of action for damages by reason of such entry, removal or disabling. Any such repossession shall not constitute a termination of the Leased Period nor the Lessee’s responsibility to pay the fees relating thereto; (b) require Lessee, at its expense, to return the Hardware Device in good repair (pursuant to the terms in Section 5) by delivering the Hardware Device, packed and ready for shipment, to such place as OT may specify; (c) cancel or terminate this Order and may retain any and all prior payments paid by Lessee; (d) declare all sums due and to become due under this Order immediately due and payable, including as to any or all items of Hardware Device, without notice or demand to Lessee; and (e) to pursue any other remedy available at law, by statute or equity. No right or remedy conferred upon or reserved to OT is intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy referred to herein or available to OT at law or equity.
5. Return of Hardware Device(s)
5.1 Upgrades. During the Lease Period, if Lessee upgrades the Hardware Device(s) or OT requires that a Hardware Device(s) be replaced, promptly following delivery to Lessee of the replacement Hardware Device(s), Lessee shall return (subject to the terms set out in Section 5.3) the original Hardware Device(s) at OT’s cost in accordance with the instructions provided by OT. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Leased Hardware Addendum and the Underlying Agreement shall continue to govern any replacement Hardware Device(s).
5.2 Return Conditions. At the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Period, Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole expense and cost: (a) delete all of Lessee’s content stored on the Hardware Device and (b) promptly return the Hardware Device(s) in an undamaged condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) within ten (10) calendar days of expiration or termination of the Lease Period (the “Return Period”). Where Lessee upgrades the Hardware Device during the Lease Period in accordance with Section 5.1, OT will bear the cost of the return of the original Hardware Device and shipment of the upgraded version of the Hardware Device. Lessee is solely responsible for deleting any Lessee generated content stored on the Hardware Device prior to returning the Hardware Device to OT.
5.3 Returned Hardware Devices. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that OT will not be responsible for any use or disclosure of any stored Lessee generated content that remains on any returned Hardware Device and irrecoverably waives and releases OT from any liability relating thereto. Except as otherwise provided herein, Lessee will be responsible for the (a) cost of shipping and handling in connection with the return of the Hardware Device to OT and (b) risk of loss associated with the Hardware Device until such Hardware Device arrives at OT’s designated shipping destination. OT reserves the right to invoice Lessee for the replacement cost of a new version of the Hardware Device of similar functionality and specification if OT does not receive the Hardware Device by the end of the Return Period.
