    Service Plan MethodologyAs part of the delivery of this Planned Service Agreement, Johnson Controls will dedicate a local customer service agent responsible for having a clear understanding of the agreement scope, and your facility procedures and protocols.

    A high-level overview around our service delivery process is outlined below including scheduling, emergency service, on-site paperwork, communication and performing repairs outside of the agreement scope.

    Scheduling Preventative maintenance service will be scheduled using our automated service management system. In advance of the scheduled service visit, our technician is sent a notice of service to a smartphone. Once the technician acknowledges the request, your customer service agent will call or e-mail your on-site contact to let you know the start date and type of service scheduled.

    The technician checks in, wears personal protective equipment, performs the task(s) as assigned, checks out with you and asks for a screen capture signature on the smartphone device. A work order is then e-mailed, faxed or printed for your records.

    Emergency Services Emergency service can be provided 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. During normal business hours, emergency service will be coordinated by the customer service agent. After hours, weekends and holidays, the emergency service number transfers to the Johnson Controls after-hours call center and on-call technicians are dispatched as needed.

    Johnson Controls is committed to dispatching a technician within hours of receiving your call through the service line. A work order is e-mailed, faxed or printed for your records. Depending on the terms of your agreement, you may incur charges for after hour services.

    Communication A detailed communication plan will be provided to you so you know how often we will provide information to you regarding your Planned Service Agreement. The communication plan will also provide you with your main contacts at Johnson Controls.

    Approval Process for Non-Covered Items Johnson Controls will adhere to your procurement process. No work will be performed outside of the agreement scope without prior approval. Johnson Controls will work with you closely to ensure your procurement process is followed before any non-covered item work is started.

    Terms and Conditions Definitions

    CONNECTED SERVICES are the services and related equipment that allow JCI to access, monitor, and trend data remotely, and which may be available for certain types of Covered Equipment. CONTRACT PRICE means the price that Customer shall pay to JCI for the Services. COVERED EQUIPMENT means the equipment for which Services are to be provided under this Agreement. Covered Equipment is set forth in Schedule A - Equipment List. EQUIPMENT FAILURE means the failure, under normal and expected working conditions, of moving parts or electric or electronic components of the Covered Equipment that are necessary for its operation. PREMISES means those Customer premises where the Covered Equipment is located or Services performed pursuant to this Agreement. REMOTE MONITORING SERVICES means remote monitoring of Covered Equipment and/or systems including building automation, HVAC equipment, and fire alarm, intrusion, and/or other life safety systems for alarm and event notifications using a UL Certified Central Station. REMOTE OPERATIONS CENTER (ROC) is the department at JCI that remotely monitors alarm and industrial (HVAC) process signals. REMOTE OPERATING SERVICES means remote interrogation, modification and/or operation of building automation, HVAC equipment, and/or other Covered Equipment. REPAIR LABOR is the labor necessary to restore Covered Equipment to working condition following an Equipment Failure, but does not include services relating to total equipment replacement due to obsolescence or unavailability of parts. REPAIR MATERIALS are the parts and materials necessary to restore Covered Equipment to working condition following an Equipment Failure, but excludes total equipment replacement due to obsolescence or unavailability of parts, unless excluded from the Agreement. At JCI’s option, Repair Materials may be new, used, or reconditioned. SCHEDULED SERVICE MATERIALS are the materials required to perform Scheduled Service Visits on Covered Equipment, unless excluded from the Agreement. SCHEDULED SERVICE VISITS are the on-site labor visits required to perform JCI recommended inspections and preventive maintenance on Covered Equipment. SERVICES are the work, materials, labor, service visits, and repairs to be provided by JCI pursuant to this Agreement except that the Services do not include the provision of any software products or digital or cloud services, which are provided under separate terms and conditions referenced in Section P herein. A. JCI’S SERVICES FOR COVERED EQUIPMENT

    1. BASIC COVERAGE means Scheduled Service Visits, plus Scheduled Service Materials (unless excluded from this Agreement). No parts, equipment, Repair Labor or Repair Materials are provided for under BASIC COVERAGE. 2. PREMIUM COVERAGE means BASIC COVERAGE plus Repair Labor, plus Repair Materials (unless excluded from the Agreement). If Customer has ordered PREMIUM COVERAGE, JCI will inspect the Covered Equipment within forty-five (45) days of the date of this Agreement, or as seasonal or operational conditions permit. JCI will then advise Customer if JCI finds any Covered Equipment not in working order or in need of repair. With Customer’s approval, JCI will perform the work necessary to put the Covered Equipment in proper working condition, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Customer will pay for such work at JCI’s standard rates for parts and labor in effect at the time that the work is performed. If Customer does not want JCI to perform the work identified as necessary by JCI, any equipment thereby affected will be removed from the list of Covered Equipment, and the Contract Price will be adjusted accordingly. Should Customer not make JCI’s recommended repairs or proceed with the modified PREMIUM COVERAGE, JCI reserves the right to invoice Customer for the cost of the initial equipment inspection. 3. EXTENDED SERVICE means Services performed outside JCI’s normal business hours and is available only if Customer has PREMIUM COVERAGE. Extended Service is available either 24/5 or 24/7, at Customer’s election. The price for Extended Service, if chosen by Customer, is part of the total Contract Price. 4. CONNECTED SERVICES. If Customer has purchased Connected Chiller Services on any Covered Equipment as more fully described in Schedule A, JCI will provide a cellular modem (“Gateway Device” owned by JCI) or Customer will supply a network connection suitable to establish a remote connection with Customer’s Equipment to permit JCI to perform troubleshooting, quarterly health reports, and meet service levels, including remote diagnostic, monitoring and repair services. Customer will benefit from being able to access chiller information from JCI Connected Chillers from a mobile smart device. JCI will not use Connected Services to remotely operate or make changes to Customer’s Equipment. The Gateway Device shall remain JCI’s property, and JCI may upon reasonable notice remove it at any time. JCI makes no any warranty or guarantee relating to the Connected Services. For Equipment not covered by a current Service Agreement, JCI disclaims any obligation to monitor such products via a remote connection or advise Customer of any possible Equipment error or malfunction.

If Customer elects for JCI to repair such Out of Scope Defect, or if JCI otherwise performs any Services or provides any materials, parts, or equipment outside the scope of the Services (collectively, “Out of Scope Services”), Customer shall direct JCI to perform such Out of Scope Services in writing, and Customer shall pay for such Out of Scope Services at JCI’s standard fees or hourly rates. If, after receiving notice of an Out of Scope Defect, Customer elects not to engage JCI to repair such Out of Scope Defect, Customer shall defend and indemnify JCI from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses arising directly or indirectly out of such Out of Scope Defect.

    • abuse, misuse, alterations, adjustments, attachments, combinations, modifications, or repairs to Covered Equipment not performed, provided, or approved in writing by JCI;

    • equipment not covered by this Agreement or attachments made to Covered Equipment;• acts or omissions of the Customer, including but not limited to the failure of the Customer to fulfill the Customer Obligations and

    Commitments to JCI as described in Section F of this Agreement, operator error, Customer’s failure to conduct preventive maintenance, issues resulting from Customer’s previous denial of JCI access to the Covered Equipment, and Customer’s failure to keep the site clean and free of dust, sand, or other particles or debris, unless such conditions are previously expressly acknowledged by JCI in writing;

    • use of the Covered Equipment in a manner or environment, or for any purpose, for which it was not designed by the manufacturer;• site-related and environmental conditions, including but not limited to power failures and fluctuations in electrical current (or “power

    surges”) and biohazards such as but not limited to Legionella associated with condenser water, cooling tower systems and subcomponent systems;

    • the effects of erosion, corrosion, acid cleaning, or damage from unexpected or especially severe freezing weather;• issues or failures not specifically covered by this Agreement; or• occurrences beyond JCI’s reasonable control and without JCI’s fault or negligence.

    30 days.

    Failure by Customer to make payments when due will give JCI, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, the right to: (i) to stop performing any Services, withhold deliveries of Equipment and other materials, terminate or suspend any software licenses provided hereunder and/or terminate this Agreement; and (ii) charge Customer interest on the amounts unpaid at a rate equal to the lesser of one and one-half (1.5) percent per month or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, until payment is made in full. Customer will pay all of JCI’s reasonable collection costs (including legal fees and expenses). In the event of Customer’s default, the balance of any outstanding amounts will be immediately due and payable.

    JCI may increase prices upon notice to the Customer to reflect increases in material and labor costs. In issuing any purchase order related to this Agreement, and notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, Customer acknowledges and agrees that any and all JCI invoices for an amount greater than $25,000 shall be paid only via wire transfer, check, or money order. If this Agreement is renewed, JCI will provide Customer with notice of any adjustments in the Contract Price applicable to any renewal period no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the commencement of that renewal period.

JCI warrants that equipment manufactured or labeled by Johnson Controls, Inc. shall be free from defects in material and workmanship arising from normal usage for a period of 90 days. If JCI installs or furnishes a piece of equipment under this Agreement, and that equipment is covered by a warranty from a manufacturer other than JCI, JCI will transfer the benefits of that manufacturer’s warranty, if any, to Customer and such warranty remedies are exclusive for that equipment. All transportation charges incurred in connection with the warranty for equipment and/or materials not covered under this Agreement shall be borne by Customer. Except as provided herein, if JCI receives written notice of a breach of this warranty prior to the end of this warranty period, JCI will repair or replace (at JCI’s option) the defective equipment. .

    These warranties do not extend to any Services or equipment that have been misused, altered, or repaired by Customer or third parties without the supervision of and prior written approval of JCI, or if JCI serial numbers or warranty decals have been removed or altered. All replaced parts or equipment shall become JCI’s property. This warranty is not assignable. Warranty service will be provided during normal business hours, excluding holidays. The remedies set forth herein shall be Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy with regards to any warranty claim under this Agreement. Any lawsuit based upon the warranty must be brought no later than one (1) year after the expiration of the applicable warranty period. This limitation is in lieu of any other applicable statute of limitations. CUSTOMER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THESE WARRANTIES ARE JCI’S SOLE WARRANTIES AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Customer acknowledges and understands that unless water treatment for biohazards (such as Legionella) is explicitly included in the services JCI is providing, it is Customer's responsibility to provide such treatment. Customer also acknowledges that its failure to meet the above obligations will relieve JCI of any responsibility for any Covered Equipment breakdown, or any necessary repair or replacement of any Covered Equipment. If Customer breaches any of these obligations, JCI shall have the right, upon written notice to Customer, to suspend its Services until Customer cures such breach. In addition, Customer shall be responsible for paying or reimbursing JCI for any costs associated with corrective work required as a result of Customer’s breach of these obligations.

    G. INSURANCE Customer is responsible for obtaining all insurance coverage that Customer believes is necessary to protect Customer, Customer’s property, and persons in or on the Premises, including coverage for personal injury and property damage.

Customer hereby releases JCI from any liability for any event or condition customarily covered by commercial liability insurance. Customer understands that neither the Services nor the Covered Equipment are designed to reduce, but not eliminate, certain risks.
