6.3 Equitable Relief.  Client acknowledges that a breach or violation of this Article 6 would cause irreparable harm to OmniMetrix and that monetary damages would be insufficient to remedy such harm.  Accordingly, Client agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach or violation of this Article 6, OmniMetrix shall have the right to obtain an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of posting bond or similar security.  OmniMetrix’s rights to equitable relief pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall be in addition to such other rights and remedies as OmniMetrix may have at law or in equity.

7.1 Third Party Carrier Services.  In connection with the provision by OmniMetrix of wireless monitoring services to Client, OmniMetrix utilizes wireless communication services (which may include cellular, satellite and other forms of wireless communications) provided by third party carriers. Client acknowledges and agrees that it has no contractual relationship with any underlying wireless service carrier, Client is not a third party beneficiary of any agreement between OmniMetrix and an underlying carrier and no underlying carrier shall have any legal, equitable, or other liability of any kind to Client.

7.2 Interruption of Communication Services. Client acknowledges and agrees that wireless communication services provided by third party carriers may be temporarily unavailable, interrupted, curtailed or limited because of atmospheric, terrain, or other natural or artificial conditions and may be temporarily interrupted or curtailed due to usage concentrations, modifications, upgrades, relocation and repairs.  Neither OmniMetrix nor any of its third party carriers shall be responsible for the unavailability of or interruptions to such services or the inability to use the services of a third party carrier.  Client acknowledges and agrees that neither OmniMetrix nor any of its third party carriers can guarantee the security of wireless transmissions made using the wireless communication services and that OmniMetrix and its third party carriers shall not be liable for any lack of security relating to the use of the wireless communication services.

This provision shall survive the termination of OmniMetrix’s agreements with the underlying carrier and with Client.

7.4 SMS Terms of Service.  Use of our text message-based services is subject to the following.  SMS based alerts are used to notify users of various alarms or faults that may occur on equipment being remotely monitored by OmniMetrix.  Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.  Message and data rates may apply.  To obtain help you may:

8.1 Payment by Reseller. If Client is purchasing from a reseller or distributor rather than directly from OmniMetrix, Client’s license to use OmniMetrix’s products and services is contingent upon payment to OmniMetrix of the applicable fees owed by such reseller or distributor to OmniMetrix.  In the event that any such reseller or distributor fails to make payment of such fees to OmniMetrix, then OmniMetrix may, in its discretion, suspend or terminate the use of OmniMetrix products and services. Client agrees to hold OmniMetrix harmless for any such suspension or termination.  Client acknowledges and understands that it may be referred to as an “end user” in its agreements with any reseller or distributor.
