GENERAL CONDITIONS OF EQUIPMENT RENTAL AGREEMENT (LEASE)
The conditions of lease here below stated, together with the Agreement set forth on the

contract is hereafter referred to as “this Agreement”.
1) RENTAL PERIOD. The Rental period shall cover all time consumed in transporting
the equipment, including the date of legal delivery to a public carrier for transit to Lessee
and upon return of the equipment, the date of legal delivery by such carrier to Lessor, or
if no public carrier is used, shall include the date upon which transit to Lessee begins and
the date upon which transit from Lessee ends at Lessors unloading point.
2) RENTAL CHARGES. Lessee shall pay rental for the entire Rental Period on each
article of equipment named in the List of Equipment, at the rate therein stipulated and in
accordance with the following:
a) Monthly Rental Rates shall not be subject to any deductions on account of
any non-working time in the month. The amount of rent payable for any
fraction of a month at the beginning or end of the Rental Period shall be
the monthly rental rate, prorated according to the number of calendar days
in such fraction.
b) Daily Rental Rates shall not be subject to deductions for any non-working
time in the day and shall be paid for each calendar day in the month except
Sundays and legal holidays upon which the equipment is not operated.
Daily and monthly rental rates stipulated in the List of Equipment
contemplate an operating day of a regular single shift of eight (8) hours,
and for each hour over such eight (8) hours that the equipment is operated
these rates shall be increased six (6) percent of the daily rate throughout
such period as the equipment is so operated.
c) Unit of Work Rates shall be paid for each unit of work in which the
equipment participates, and the amount of rental shall, unless otherwise
agreed in writing be determined by the number of units shown in the
supervising engineers or architect’s estimates.
3) PAYMENT. The rent for any and every item of equipment described in the List of
Equipment shall be the amount therein designated and is payable in advance on the first
day of each month. Lessee shall pay Lessor interest at twelve percent (12%) or the
highest lawful rate, whichever is greater, on any delinquent payment from the date when
such payment was due until paid and on any other sum for breach of this Agreement,
from the date of the breach, and expenses of collection or suit, including actual attorneys’
fees.
4) SECURITY DEPOSIT. Any security deposit paid by Lessee to Lessor is paid to
guarantee Lessee’s full and faithful performance of all terms, conditions and provisions
of this Agreement. If Lessee shall so perform, an equal sum shall be repaid without
interest to Lessee at the termination of this Agreement.

5) FEES, ASSESSMENTS, AND TAXES PAID BY LESSEE. Lessee shall pay all

6) RECALL NOTICE. Lessor may recall any or all equipment upon ten (10) days
written notice to Lessee and the Lessee may return any or all equipment upon a like
notice to the Lessor.
7) MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION. Lessee shall not remove, alter, disfigure
or cover up any numbering, lettering, or insignia displayed upon the equipment, and shall
see that the equipment is not subjected to careless, unusually or needlessly rough usage;
and Lessee shall at his own expense maintain the equipment and its appurtenances in
good repair and operative condition, and return it in such condition to Lessor, ordinary
wear and tear resulting from proper use thereof alone expected.
8) REPAIRS. The expense of all repairs made during the Rental Period, including
labor, material, parts and other items shall be paid by Lessee.
9) OPERATORS. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, Lessee shall supply
and pay all operators on the equipment during the Rental Period. All operators shall be
competent. Should Lessor furnish any operators or other workmen for the equipment,
they shall be employees of Lessee during the Rental Period, and Lessee shall pay them
salary or wages and all other applicable costs. Lessee shall provide and pay for all
workmen’s compensation insurance and pay all payroll taxes required by law and
applying to such operators and workman.
10) DISCLAIMER OF WARRENTIES. LESSOR, BEING NEITHER THE
MANUFACTURER, NOR A SUPPLIER, NOR A DEALER IN THE EQUIPMENT,
MAKES NO WARRENTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE CONDITION OF THE
EQUIPMENT, ITS MERCHANTABILITY, ITS DESIGN, ITS CAPACITY, ITS
PERFORMANCE, ITS MATERIAL, ITS WORKMANSHIP, ITS FITNESS FOR ANY
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR THAT IT WILL MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF
ANY LAWS, RULES, SPECIFICATIONS, OR CONTRACTS WHICH PROVIDE FOR
SPECIFIC APPARATUS OR SPECIAL METHODS. LESSOR FURTHER DISCLAIMS
ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR LOSS, DAMAGE, OR INJURY
TO LESSEE OR THIRD PARTIES AS A RESULT OF ANY DEFECTS, LATENT OR
OTHERWISE, IN THE EQUIPMENT. AS TO LESSOR, LESSEE LEASES THE
EQUIPMENT “AS IS”. LESSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY EVENT TO
LESSEE FOR ANY LOSS, DELAY, OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER
RESULTING FROM DEFECTS IN, OR INEFFICIENCY OF, EQUIPMENT HEREBY
LEASED OR ACCIDENTAL BREAKAGE THEREOF.
11) INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against, and hold Lessor harmless
from, any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, damages, and
liabilities, including attorneys fees, arising out of, connected with, or resulting from the
Page 3 of 5 Equipment Rental Agreement – CONSERVATION DISTRICT PROGRAM
equipment or the Lease, including without limitation, the manufacture, selection,
delivery, leasing, renting, control, possession, use, operation, maintenance or return of the
equipment. Lessee shall further indemnify Lessor, and hold Lessor harmless from all loss
and damage to the equipment during the rental period. Lessee recognizes and agrees that
included in this indemnity clause, but not by way of limitation, is Lessee’s assumption of
any and all liability for injury: disability and death of workmen and other persons caused
by the operation, use, control, handling, or transportation of the equipment during the
Rental Period.
12) RISK OF LOSS. Lessor shall not be responsible for loss or damage to property,
material, or equipment belonging to Lessee, its agents, employees, suppliers, or anyone
directly or indirectly employed by Lessee while said material property, or equipment is in
Lessors care, custody, control or under Lessors physical control. Lessee is encouraged
to obtain appropriate equipment, material, or installation floater insurance against such
risk of loss. Lessee and its insurers waive all rights of subrogation against Lessor for such
losses.
13) INSPECTION: CONCLUSIVE PRESUMPTIONS. Lessee shall inspect the
equipment within three (3) business days after receipt thereof. Unless Lessee within said
period of time gives written notice to Lessor, specifying any defect in or other proper
objection to the equipment. Lessee agrees that it shall be conclusively presumed, as
between Lessor and Lessee, that Lessee has fully inspected and acknowledged that the
equipment is in full compliance with the terms of this agreement, in good condition and
repair, and that Lessee is satisfied with and has accepted the equipment in such good
condition and repair. Lessor shall have the right at any time to enter the premises
occupied by the equipment and shall be given free access thereto and afforded necessary
facilities for the purpose of inspection.
14) OWNERSHIP. Lessor shall at all times retain ownership and title of the
equipment. Lessee shall give Lessor immediate notice in the event that any of said
equipment is levied upon or is about to become liable or is threatened with seizure, and
Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against all loss and damages caused by such action.
15) DEFAULT; REMEDIES. If (a) Lessee shall default in the payment of any rent or
in making any other payment hereunder when due, or (b) Lessee shall default in the
payment when due of any indebtedness of Lessee to Lessor arising independently of this
lease, or (c) Lessee shall default in the performance of any other covenant herein and
such default shall continue for five days after written notice hereof to Lessee by Lessor,
or (d) Lessee becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
(e) Lessee applies for or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, or liquidator
of Lessee or of all or a substantial part of the assets of Lessee under the Bankruptcy Act,
or any amendment thereto (including, without limitation, a petition for reorganization,
arrangement, or extension) or under any other insolvency law or law providing for the
relief of debtors, then, if and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Lessor shall have
the right to under any other insolvency law or law providing for the relief of debtors,

then, if and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Lessor shall have the right to
exercise any one or more of the following remedies.
(a) To declare the entire amount of rent hereunder immediately due and payable as
to any or all items of the equipment, without notice or demand to Lessee.
(b) To sue for and recover all rents, and other payments, then accrued or thereafter
accruing, with respect to any or all items of he equipment.
(c) To take possession of any or all items of the equipment without demand,
notice, or legal process, wherever they may be located. Lessee hereby waives any
and all damages occasioned by such taking of possession. Any said taking of
possession shall not constitute a termination of this lease as to any or all items of
equipment unless Lessor expressly so notifies Lessee in writing.
(d) To terminate this lease as to any or all items of equipment.
(e) To pursue any other remedy at law or in equality.
Notwithstanding any said repossession, or any other action which Lessor may take,

Lessee to be performed under this Lease. All such remedies are cumulative, and may be
exercised concurrently or separately.
16) NO SUBLETTING ASSIGNMENT. No equipment shall be sublet by Lessee, nor
shall he assign or transfer any interest in this Agreement without written consent of
Lessor. Lessor may assign this Agreement without notice. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement inures to the benefit of, and is binding upon, the heirs, successors, and assigns
of the parties hereto.
17) REMEDIES CUMULATIVE: NO WAIVER; SEVERABILITY. All remedies of
Lessor hereunder are cumulative and may, to the extent permitted by law, be exercised
concurrently or separately, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not be deemed to be
an election of such remedy or to preclude the exercise of any other remedy. No failure on
the part of the Lessor to exercise and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy, hereby
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Lessor of any
right or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or remedy. If any term or provision of this lease is found invalid, it shall
not affect the validity and enforcement of all remaining terms and provisions of this lease.
18) EXPENSES. Lessee shall pay Lessor all costs and expenses, including attorneys’
fees, incurred by Lessor in exercising any of its rights or remedies hereunder or enforcing
any of the terms, conditions, or provisions hereof.

between Lessor and Lessee; and it shall not be amended, altered or changed except by a
written agreement signed by the parties hereto.
