AVI associated with the change in payment method. Payments shall be made 30 days from invoice date. So long as the invoice has
been sent and the Customer’s payment is made within the terms work will continue.

hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota in the United States of America and
waive any right to assert in any such proceeding that Customer is not subject to the jurisdiction of such court or that the venue of such proceeding is
improper or an inconvenient forum. The Parties specifically disclaim application (i) of the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of
Goods, 1980, and (ii) of Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code as codified. In the event AVI must take action to enforce its rights under the
Agreement, the court shall award AVI the attorney’s fees it incurred to enforce its rights under this Agreement.
18. General – Headings are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The Parties
acknowledge and agree that the Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties and that each had the opportunity to consult with its respective
counsel, and shall be interpreted fairly in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against either Party based on
draftsmanship of the Agreement. This Agreement is not assignable by Customer without the prior written consent of AVI. Any attempt by Customer to
assign any of the rights, duties, or obligations of this Agreement without such consent is void. AVI reserves the right to assign this Agreement to other
parties in order to fulfill all warranties and obligations expressed herein, or upon the sale of all or substantially all of AVI’s assets or business. This
Agreement can only be modified by a written agreement duly signed by persons authorized to sign agreements on behalf of the Customer and of AVI,
and variance from the terms and conditions of the Agreement in any order or other written notification from the Customer will be of no effect. If any
provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. AVI is not responsible for any delay in, or failure to, fulfill its obligations under this
Agreement due to causes such as natural disaster, war, emergency conditions, labor strike, acts of terrorism, the substantial inoperability of the
Internet, the inability to obtain supplies, or any other reason or any other cause or condition beyond AVI’s reasonable control. Except as otherwise
stated in the Agreement, AVI is not obliged to provide any services hereunder for Equipment located outside the United States or Puerto Rico.

19. Confidentiality. The term “Confidential Information” shall mean the inventions, trade secrets, computer software in both object and source code,
algorithms, documentation, know how, technology, ideas, and all other business, customer, technical, and financial information owned by AVI or the
Customer, which is designated as confidential, or communicated in such a manner or under such circumstances as would reasonably enable a person
or organization to ascertain its confidential nature. All the Confidential Information of a party to this Agreement shall be maintained in confidence by the
other party, and neither party shall, during the term of this Agreement or for a period of three (3) years subsequent to the termination of this Agreement,
divulge to any person or organization, or use in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for any reason whatsoever, any of the Confidential
Information of the other party without receiving the prior written consent of the other party. AVI and the Customer shall take such actions as may be
reasonably necessary to ensure that its employees and agents are bound by the provisions of this Section, which actions shall, as may be reasonably
requested by either party, include the execution of written confidentiality agreements with the employees and agents of the other party. The provisions
of this Section shall not have application to any information that (i) becomes lawfully available to the public; (ii) is received without restriction from
another person or organization lawfully in possession of such information; (iii) was rightfully in the possession of a party without restriction prior to its
disclosure; or (iv) is independently developed by a party or its employees or agents without access to the other party’s similar information.
20. Nonsolicitation - To the extent permitted by applicable law, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year after the termination
this Agreement, each Party agrees that it shall not knowingly solicit or attempt to solicit any of the other Party's executive employees or employees who
are key to such Party’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement (“Covered Employees”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall
prevent either Party from hiring as an employee any person who responds to an advertisement for employment placed in the ordinary course of business
by that Party and/or who initiates contact with that party without any direct solicitation of that person by that Party or its agents.
21. Price Quotations and Time to Install – AVI often installs systems at the end of a construction project. The price quoted contemplates that AVI
shall have access to the location for the time shown for AVI to complete its work after the work of all other contractors is substantially complete which
means, generally, all other trades are no longer generating dust in the location, and final carpeting/flooring is installed (the “Prepared Area”) Failure to
give AVI access to the Prepared Area for the amount of time shown for the installation may result in increased installation costs, typically in a manner
proportionate to the reduction of time given to AVI to complete its work compared to the original schedule.
22. Price Quotations – Unless otherwise specified, all prices quoted reflect a discount for a cash payment (i.e., check, wire transfer) made by
Customer in full within the terms of each invoice. Payment in other forms, including credit card, p-card, or other non-cash payments shall be subject to a
convenience above the cash price. Please speak to your AVI representative if you have any questions in this regard.
