EXHIBIT "A"
s.pr18950
INDIRECT SALES AGREEMENT
This Indirect Sales Agreement (the "Agreement') is entered into as of- 1.30 (the "Effective Date") by and between Itron, Inc.
Citron")and ("Customer'). Itron and Customer may each be referred to as a"Party"and together as the"Parties."
Customer shall execute this Agreement prior to its receipt of any Itron software, services or equipment by an authorized Itron distributor
(each a "Distributor"). The terms of Customer's agreement with a Distributor shall govern Customer's purchase of Itron equipment or
services from a Distributor(it being understood that Distributor will pass certain Itron warranties through to Customer). The terms of this
Agreement shall govern (i) any software provided by Itron, regardless of whether the order for such software is placed with a Distributor
or directly with Itron, and (ii) any order of equipment or services placed directly with Itron.
The Parties agree as follows:
1. Software Terms
a. Definitions.
"Delivery,"with respect to Software, means that Itron has either made the Software available to Distributor via electronic means or has
provided the Software to a carrier on physical media for delivery to Distributor.
"Documentation" means all printed or electronic materials published or otherwise that are provided to Customer and that describe or
relate to the functional, operational or performance capabilities of the Software.
"Endpoint" means (i) a physical device (e.g., a meter, encoder-transmitter-receiver or other measuring or monitoring device)that is the
source of data used in the Software application or (ii) a virtual device created in the Software application to simulate the existence of a
physical device. An example of a virtual device that is an Endpoint would include a single electricity meter that serves 10 apartment units.
If the consumption data from that electricity meter was divided between the 10 units (e.g., on the basis of square footage) and used in
the Software application as if that single electricity meter was actually 10 electricity meters, it would count as 10 Endpoints. Further, each
account,whether active or inactive, in the application that is associated with a single physical device counts as a separate Endpoint.
"Object Code" means the binary, machine-readable version of the Software.
"Software" means software identified on Attachment A that is owned by Itron and any modifications, corrections, improvements or
enhancements thereto provided by Itron.
"Source Code"means human-readable computer programming code, associated procedural code and related documentation.
"Specifications" means the applicable published Itron functional specifications for an item of Software.
"Third Party Software"means software that is not owned by Itron but is identified on Attachment A as being provided by Itron.
"Use" means the ability to run, execute, display and, subject to the restrictions described below, duplicate and distribute internally.
"Warranty Period,"with respect to a particular item of Software, means the warranty term beginning on the warranty start date, as set
forth on Attachment A.
b. License Grant.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Itron grants to Customer a nonexclusive, nontransferable, perpetual Object Code license to Use
the Software and Documentation for its internal business purposes only in connection with the number of Endpoints set forth in Attachment
A.
c. Restrictions.
As a condition to the foregoing license grant, Customer shall not(i)violate any restriction set forth on Attachment A, (ii) modify or create
any derivative work from the Software, (iii)include the Software in any other software, (iv)use the Software to provide processing services
to third parties or on a service bureau basis, (v) reverse assemble, decompile, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to derive Source
Code (of the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization) from Software, or (vi) use the Software to process business
information concerning customers derived through merger, asset acquisition or other entity combination. Except as expressly permitted
in this Agreement, Customer may not copy the Software other than to make one machine readable copy for disaster recovery or archival
purposes. Customer may only make copies of Documentation as reasonably necessary for the use contemplated herein. The Software
and Documentation shall be considered the confidential information of Itron and,as such,shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions
of this Agreement.

Distributor will invoice Customer for the Software and Itron will invoice Distributor.

release made available to Customer, (iv) any claim based on Customer's use of a product after Itron has informed Customer of
modifications or changes to the product required to avoid such claims and offered to implement those modification or changes, if such
claim would have been avoided or mitigated by the implementation of Itron's suggestions, (v) any modification to a product made by a
4
03/10/2014
person other than Itron or an authorized representative of Itron, or(vi) compliance by Itron with specifications or instructions supplied by
Customer. Itron shall not be liable hereunder for enhanced or punitive damages that could have been avoided or reduced by actions
within the control of Customer.
e. Right to Defend.
As a condition to Itron's indemnity obligations under this Agreement, Customer will provide Itron with prompt written notice of the claim,
