No Implied Licenses. Only licenses and rights expressly granted herein shall be of legal force and effect. No license or other right shall be created hereunder by implication, estoppel or otherwise.

 

 

2.6.

Expansion for Select Opportunities.

2.7.

Condition Subsequent for Exclusivity. The exclusive nature of the rights granted by the Licensor to the Licensee under Section 2.1.1 are subject to the achievement of mutually agreed-upon benchmarks, referred to herein as "Exclusivity Targets", which are specific to each Exclusive Territory. These Exclusivity Targets, pertaining to the success of the SPVs in their respective territories, will be established based on the acquisition and fulfillment of EdenTM carbon capture service contracts and Knights ChargeTM unit deployment. The Parties will collaboratively set these Exclusivity Targets within 12 months from the date of this Agreement, ensuring they include clear, attainable numbers and deadlines. If the Parties cannot come to an agreement on the Exclusivity Targets, the matter shall be submitted to and resolved pursuant to the Dispute resolution process set out in Article 12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Parties have not come to an agreement on the Exclusivity Target or resolved the Dispute with respect thereto within 18 months from the date of this Agreement, then either Party shall have the right to submit the Dispute to Arbitration pursuant to Article 12, notwithstanding that the dispute may have been submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction, and such court proceedings shall be abandoned in favour of Arbitration and the arbitration tribunal shall be instructed to return a decision within 30 days of the submission. If the SPVs of the Licensee do not meet the Exclusivity Targets in any Exclusive Territory, the rights under Section 2.1.1 related to that specific non- compliant Territory will transition from an exclusive to a non-exclusive grant. Consequently, the Licensor will then have the discretion to license these rights to Third Parties on a non-exclusive basis or on an exclusive basis, but subject to the licensees non-exclusive license.

11.7.

No Consequential or Punitive Damages. NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR MULTIPLE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE EXERCISE OF ITS RIGHTS HEREUNDER, OR FOR LOST PROFITS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 11.6 IS INTENDED TO LIMIT OR RESTRICT (A) THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS; (B) ANY CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO A BREACH OF A PARTY'S OBLIGATIONS OF CONFIDENTIALITY; OR (C) ANY CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE UNAUTHORIZED USE BY LICENSEE OF THE IP OR EQUIPMENT AND ALL PRODUCTS PRODUCED BY THE EQUIPMENT OR THE TECHNOLOGY CONTAINED THEREIN.

EXHIBIT A

 

EQUIPMENT USE AGREEMENT

 

THIS EQUIPMENT USE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into this 30th day of May, 2025, (the "Effective Date") by and between Rain Cage Carbon Inc. (hereinafter "Rain Cage"), a body incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of Alberta, and Panamera Holdings Corporation (hereinafter "Panamera"), (each a "Party" and together, referred to as the "Parties").

 

WHEREAS Panamera and Rain Cage seek to enter into, concurrently with this Agreement, a license agreement (the "License Agreement") for the exclusive purpose of enabling Panamera to sub-license to SPVs that will (i) provide a service for capturing CO2 and other emissions to Customers in the Field in the Territory and (ii) provide renewable power including hydrogen to Customers in the Field in the Territory (collectively the "Purpose") which shall include a license for the use of EdenTM and Knights Charge™ units and the Carbon to Hydrogen Technologies (together, the "Equipment").

 

AND WHEREAS Rain Cage desires to sell the Equipment to Panamera or its SPVs in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants contained herein and in the License Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby are acknowledged, it is mutually agreed and covenanted by and between the Parties to this Agreement, as follows:

 

1. Interpretation. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement will have the meanings assigned to such terms in the License Agreement. Headings are for convenience only and shall not define or limit any of the provisions hereof.

 

2. Equipment. Rain Cage hereby agrees to sell to Panamera or any SPV, and Panamera or the designated SPV hereby agrees to purchase from Rain Cage, the Equipment on the terms and conditions set out herein.

 

3. Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect for the shorter of (i) the License Term; or (ii) the termination of the License Agreement or this Agreement (the "Term").

 

4. Products Entitlement and Collection. Panamera or its designated SPV shall own all by- products produced by the Equipment (the "Product(s)"), subject to the terms of the License Agreement and the terms hereof. Panamera shall ensure its designated SPVs collect the Products on a regular basis, as is required based upon the rate of production of the Product. In the case of power generation, Panamera or the SPV shall ensure proper functioning and adequate access to a usage sync or distribution grid. Panamera further agrees that it shall ensure its designated SPVs provide all management, supervision, labour, equipment and services that may be required to collect, distribute or manage the distribution of the Products. Panamera agrees to ensure that its designated SPVs and their representatives have unrestricted access to the Equipment during SPV or its Customer's normal business hours (or other time as agreed) as reasonably required by the SPV for purposes of collection of the Products, replacement of electrodes, recharging of water, aluminum and any other chemicals or inputs for operation of the Equipment, and carrying out limited warranty or other repairs or remediation.

 

 
27

 

 

5. Cost of Equipment. If Panamera or an SPV is the manufacturer of the Equipment (the "Panamera Manufactured Equipment"), as agreed to by the parties in writing, and assumes all manufacturing costs in connection with the manufacturing of the Panamera Manufactured Equipment (the "Book Cost"), then no charges shall be incurred by Panamera or such SPV, as applicable, for the Equipment's supply. If Rain Cage manufactures or supplies the Equipment, then the applicable SPV or Panamera shall pay Rain Cage an amount equal to Rain Cage's sale price for the Equipment. The selling price for the existing versions of Eden™ units shall be $1,000,000 CAD and 1 MW Knights Charge™ units shall be at a price per unit to be determined by Rain Cage based upon the Book Cost plus a reasonable margin. The price for Knights Charge units will be affected by the source of supply of the advanced carbon Product required for the fabrication of the Knights Charge™ units (estimated at 10 tonnes per MW) (the "Provision Cost"). Provision Costs will be subject to change for future versions based on any manufacturing cost increases or decreases. In the event Panamera and Rain Cage are unable to agree on the Provision Cost or the Book Cost, the parties shall follow the dispute resolution provisions in accordance with Article 12 of the License Agreement. There shall be no ongoing Equipment rental fees due under this Agreement.

 

6. Use, Operation, Upgrades and Maintenance. Panamera shall, and will ensure SPVs shall, use the Equipment in the manner for which it was designed and intended, solely for the Purpose, substantially in accordance with all manufacturer manuals and instructions provided to or made available to Panamera, in compliance with Applicable Laws, and at all times in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the License Agreement. Neither Panamera or any SPV, nor their employees, agents, contractors or representatives shall tamper with, disassemble (other than solely in furtherance of the Purpose), revise, reverse engineer or otherwise examine the manual and inner workings of the Equipment except to the extent required to operate or manufacture the Panamera Manufactured Equipment. Panamera, at its own cost and expense, shall: (i) ensure that SPVs at their own cost and expense keep the Equipment in good repair, condition and working order sufficient to perform according to the relevant equipment specifications, manuals and requirements of this Agreement and the License Agreement, and (ii) furnish or otherwise obtain all parts, mechanisms, devices and servicing required therefor in the ordinary course. Rain Cage shall, within a reasonable period of time, notify Panamera of all modifications and upgrades to the Equipment that it develops. Panamera shall and will ensure any SPV shall, make, at Panamera's or the applicable SPV's own cost and expense, all modifications and upgrades to the Equipment as are required from time to time for the Equipment to comply with Applicable Laws or otherwise as deemed reasonably necessary by Rain Cage. Panamera or any SPV may, with Rain Cage's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, make such alterations, modifications or additions to the Equipment as are necessary to permit the Equipment to be used and optimized at the SPV's or Customer's facility and solely in furtherance of the Purpose. Panamera and any SPV shall, at its own cost and expense, provide and maintain a security system to adequately secure and limit access to the Equipment and the Products. Rain Cage, acting reasonably, shall provide Panamera with the reasonable requirements of the security system that must be satisfied.

 

7. No Encumbrances, Removal or Abandonment. Panamera shall, and will ensure any SPV shall, promptly notify Rain Cage of the imposition of any Encumbrance on the Equipment of which Panamera or an SPV becomes aware. Panamera agrees, and shall ensure SPVs agree, not to waive its/their right to use and possess the Equipment in favor of any party other than Rain Cage and further agrees not to abandon or transfer the Equipment to any party other than Rain Cage. In the case of an abandonment of the Equipment by Licensee or its SPVs, the Licensor shall have the right to immediately take possession to the Equipment and the Licensee or SPV shall provide Licensor with all documents and instruments to transfer title thereto to Licensor, at no cost to Licensor, notwithstanding Section 8 herein.

 

 
28

 

 

8. Ownership. Rain Cage acknowledges and agrees that upon payment of the Provision Cost, the Licensee or the SPV purchaser is the sole owner of the Equipment. Where Licensee or its SPV is in Default and Licensor has the right to termination, Licensor shall have the right, and such right is hereby granted (the "Repurchase Option"), to repurchase and take possession of the Equipment upon payment of the Provision Cost therefor and the Equipment shall become the property of Rain Cage. If Rain Cage exercises the Repurchase Option and pays the Provision Cost, the Licensee or SPV, as applicable shall, and will ensure any SPV shall, execute such supplemental instruments as Rain Cage may reasonably request to effect the intent of this Agreement and the License Agreement and shall otherwise cooperate to protect and defend the right and title of Rain Cage to the Equipment. The Licensee shall, and will ensure that any SPV shall, maintain possession and ownership of the Equipment until such time as it has been paid the Provision Cost.

 

9. Delivery of Equipment. The Licensee shall, and will ensure that any SPV shall, be liable for all costs and expenses relating to the loading of Equipment from the Licensor's or its manufacturer's plant, transportation and unloading of the Equipment to the Licensee's, SPV's or Customer's facility (including any damages that may arise therefrom), as well as to the returning destination, if applicable (including parts, consumables, products, materials, tools and supplies).

 

10. Risk of Loss. The Equipment shall be shipped ExWorks Rain Cage's or its manufacturer's plant gate and the risk of loss or destruction of the Equipment will transfer from Rain Cage to the Licensee or the applicable SPV on the delivery of the Equipment at Rain Cage's or its manufacturer's plant gate, and the risk of such loss or damage shall be borne by Panamera or the applicable SPV, regardless of the cause of the loss or damage (unless caused by Rain Cage's faulty packaging, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

 

11. Limited Warranty. Rain Cage hereby warrants to Panamera and each SPV that the Equipment shall be in good working order and fit for the particular purpose as reasonably inferred from the License Agreement. Rain Cage makes no other warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, those available at law in respect of the Equipment.

 

12. Insurance. Panamera shall, and will ensure that each SPV shall, at its own expense, maintain liability, theft, fire and any other insurance reasonably required, in an amount sufficient to replace the Equipment, to the extent of new replacement value; such proceeds of insurance shall be used to replace the Equipment (unless otherwise agreed in writing) and shall be kept in full force and effect during the Term.

 

13. Loss of Equipment. In the event that the Equipment is lost or irreparably damaged for any reason, Panamera shall, and will ensure that each SPV shall, send a notice informing Rain Cage of such loss or damage in writing as soon as practicable and Rain Cage shall have the right to inspect the damaged Equipment or site where the Equipment was located upon 48 hour's notice.

 

14. Injury or Property Damage. In the event Panamera, an SPV, any of their personnel or any third party suffers personal injury, property damage or any other type of loss caused by the Equipment or the installation, operation, maintenance, use, change of location or return thereof, Panamera or the applicable SPV shall be responsible for all damages, costs and losses related thereto, irrespective of the reason for such injury, loss or damage, and Rain Cage, its employees, successors and assigns shall have no responsibility or liability unless caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Rain Cage.

Neither Party is liable to the other Party for any special, contingent, exemplary, punitive, indirect, incidental or consequential loss or damage, any loss of anticipated revenue, overhead or profit, any loss of production business or contracts, any loss by reason of shutdowns, non-operation or increased costs of operation or any loss of business reputation or opportunities of any nature arising at any time or from any cause whatsoever relating to the Agreement and whether or not such losses or damages were foreseeable even if a Party was advised of the possibility of them.

 

16. Termination. Upon the termination date, Panamera or the applicable SPV shall pay to Licensor, if applicable (a) all amounts owing and due to Licensor hereunder; (b) all costs associated with collection, including reasonable legal fees (on a solicitor and client basis); and (c) all costs associated with return of Equipment.
