    Neither Renter nor Equipment Owner shall engage in any conduct intended to exploit, abuse, or fraudulently benefit from the Dizel Rental Protection Program (DRP), insurance-related provisions, or any other protections, indemnities, or service offerings described herein. This includes, without limitation, staging or concealing damage, making false claims, using unqualified operators under false pretenses, or misrepresenting site conditions, usage hours, or Equipment condition before or after rental.

    Dizel reserves the right to deny claims, terminate rentals, revoke platform access, or pursue civil or criminal remedies in the event of suspected or confirmed fraudulent behavior or deceptive practices by any User. All protections and coverage, including DRP and insurance facilitation, shall be null and void with respect to any User found to have engaged in intentional misconduct, material misrepresentation, or abuse of platform safeguards.

    This clause shall survive the expiration or termination of this Rental and Service Agreement.

These indemnification obligations shall survive the expiration or termination of this Rental and Service Agreement.
INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE AUTONOMOUS AND SHALL NOT BE LIMITED BY ANY INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS OR THE AVAILABILITY OF COVERAGE. FOR CLAIMS BROUGHT BY EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR REPRESENTATIVES OF AN INDEMNIFYING PARTY, SUCH OBLIGATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY LIMITATIONS UNDER WORKERS’ COMPENSATION LAWS, DISABILITY BENEFITS LAWS, OR SIMILAR EMPLOYEE BENEFIT STATUTES.
  1. Rental Rates and Platform Fees. The determination of rental rates for Equipment listed on the Dizel platform shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Equipment Owner. Equipment Owners may establish or modify such rates at any time, subject to applicable fees assessed by Dizel, including, without limitation, fees associated with Dizel’s provision of Managed Services. Dizel may provide Equipment Owners with recommended market rates based on regional and equipment-specific benchmarks; however, such recommendations are non-binding and provided for informational purposes only. As consideration for the services rendered by Dizel, the following fees shall apply:

    1. Renter Platform Fee: For each Equipment rental, Renter shall pay a Platform Fee equal to eleven and one-half percent (11.5%) of the total rental charges. This Platform Fee is non-refundable, exclusive of applicable state and local taxes, and is automatically included in the total amount due at checkout. The Platform Fee includes enrollment in and coverage under the DRP program, as further described in this Agreement.

    2. Owner Managed Services Fee: For each Equipment rental, Dizel shall charge the Equipment Owner a Managed Services Fee equal to six and one-half percent (6.5%) of the aggregate rental charges. This fee shall be deducted from the amounts payable to the Equipment Owner and represents consideration for Dizel’s provision of platform access, transaction facilitation, and related managed services. Equipment Owners shall also input the applicable cost of maintenance services (calculated per 250-hour interval), cleaning costs, and transportation costs which Dizel will incorporate into rental pricing and collect from Renters on the Owner’s behalf unless Dizel performs the services directly.

  2. Assignment and Use Restrictions. Renter shall not sublease, subrent, assign, loan, or otherwise transfer possession or control of the Equipment to any third party without the prior written consent of Dizel, and any such unauthorized action shall be null and void. Renter further agrees to use and retain the Equipment exclusively at the job site designated in the Rental Agreement unless otherwise authorized in writing by Dizel. Dizel may, at its sole discretion and without notice to Renter, assign or transfer this Agreement, the Equipment, or any rights to receive payments or other benefits arising under this Agreement.

  3. Taxes.

    1. The Platform is configured to diligently adhere to statutory requirements governing sales and use tax computations across various states, regions, and municipalities. The Platform incorporates direct API integration with the third-party cloud-based sales and use tax calculation system. Such API and third-party services are chosen at Dizel’s sole discretion.

    2. Sales tax and use tax are automatically assessed against the Renter and subsequently remitted by Dizel to the appropriate tax authority. The computation of sales tax considers both the origin and destination of the Equipment to provide precise calculations across various tax jurisdictions, including county or state locales. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Renter shall not rely on Dizel as it relates to any taxes charged or calculated in connection with the Rental of the Equipment. No information provided in this Agreement, on the Platform, or by any Dizel representative shall be construed or considered tax advice. Renter shall retain its own accountants to provide any and all tax advice related to Renter’s transactions through the Platform.

    3. Equipment property taxes shall be the exclusive obligation of the Equipment Owner. In certain jurisdictions, unique ownership levies, such as the Colorado Special Mobile Machinery (SMM) tax, may be applicable. Such taxes may be incorporated within the calculation of rental rates charged by the Equipment Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Renter shall be responsible for its compliance with all property tax laws, and for prompt remittance of any property taxes later charged by an Equipment Owner or Dizel on behalf of such Equipment Owner, if not otherwise charged through the Platform.

  4. Post Rental Expenses.

    1. Any subsequent activities that occur outside of the Rental Term (“Post-Rental Activities”) shall be invoiced upon the conclusion of the Rental Term or upon completion of the Post-Rental Activities and shall be delineated in one or more invoices. For purposes of clarity, Post-Rental Activities encompass, but are not limited to:

      1. Hourly usage overages; and

      2. Any other service costs

  5. Usage Limit.

    1. The permissible utilization of the Equipment shall be restricted to 224 hours per four week period for the entire duration of the Rental Term. The aggregate usage shall be computed cumulatively over the entirety of the Rental Term, without individual monthly computations for the Equipment. Illustratively, in a three-month rental scenario, the cumulative usage for all three months may amount to 672 hours yet remain consistent with the stipulated 224-hour monthly limit.
  6. Overages. In the event that the cumulative usage of any unit of Equipment exceeds the specified limit of 224 hours throughout the Rental Term, additional charges shall be incurred at the conclusion of the Rental Term, delineated in one or more invoices. The overage rate per hour shall be determined based on the equivalent daily rental rate applicable to the utilized unit of Equipment. The computation of overage charges shall be executed through the formula: [hourly rental rate] x [cumulative overage hours across the rental period] = [overage charges]. For illustrative purposes, if a monthly rental fee of $9,000 was assessed for a usage period of 300 hours within a month, resulting in an excess of 76 hours beyond the stipulated 224-hour monthly limit, the overage charge would be calculated accordingly:

    Illustrative Example: If a monthly rental rate of $9,000 is charged for Equipment used for 300 hours in one month, the overage would be calculated as follows: $9,000 ÷ 224 = $40.18/hour × 76 excess hours = $3,052.94.

    Overage charges shall be due immediately upon invoicing and are non-disputable absent manifest error. Renter acknowledges that accurate tracking of usage hours, including via telematics or GPS systems, is essential and binding for this calculation.

  7. Payment. The Renter’s obligation to remit the rental fees, along with all associated freight, taxes, and any other amounts stipulated in this Agreement when due, is unequivocal and unconditional, without allowance for deductions, set-off rights, abatements, withholdings, or claims for compensation of any nature. The Renter hereby grants explicit authorization to Dizel for the imposition and collection of all fees due hereunder, inclusive of taxes and any additional amounts owed to Dizel pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

18.##### Early Returns, Extensions, Cancellations.

1. The return of Equipment prior to the anticipated conclusion of the Rental Term is permissible. However, the minimum duration for which the Equipment may be rented is stipulated at 1 day.  
2. A Renter may request an extension to the Rental Term by submitting such request to Dizel and the Equipment Owner at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the expiration of the Rental Term; failure to adhere to this timeframe may result in the reclamation of the Equipment.  
3. In order to be eligible for a complete reimbursement, cancellations must be effectuated no less than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the scheduled pick-up of the Equipment. Incurred charges may be applicable for cancellations made subsequent to the aforementioned cancellation period.

19. Transportation.
1. The Renter shall be furnished with a quotation for the transportation of each machine promptly upon placement of such order through the Platform. The ultimate transportation expenses shall be itemized and reflected on one or more invoices submitted to Renter.
2. Renter understands that initial calculation of transportation expenses are only estimates and that unforeseen circumstances may result in the final costs deviating from the initially quoted transportation fees. Dizel and the Equipment Owner shall use best efforts to notify Renter in advance of any deviations.
3. Renter shall be subject to electronic notifications, disseminated via email and text messages, at various intervals during the transportation process of each unit of Equipment.
4. In the event Equipment has not been delivered within a reasonable period of time after the anticipated delivery time, Dizel shall take such efforts as it deems necessary to resolve any issues with delivery or transportation of the Equipment. Dizel reserves the right to charge for any costs associated with such actions.

  1. Machine Downtime Swaps.

    1. For machines Equipment that is incapacitated in the field and deemed irreparable despite diligent attempts to remedy or repair, Dizel will use best efforts to replace or substitute such Equipment within four (4) days from the occurrence of the breakdown.

    2. If the breakdown is the Equipment Owner’s responsibility or fault:

      1. The responsibility for the replacement of similar equipment shall be the responsibility of the Equipment Owner;

      2. If the Equipment Owner is unable to procure a similar unit of equipment, a designated Dizel account manager shall diligently endeavor to locate a commensurate replacement unit of Equipment within the territory of the Renter;

      3. The Equipment Owner shall bear the responsibility for the transportation of the inoperable Equipment back to the Equipment Owner’s premises;

      4. The Renter shall receive due credit for the duration necessitated to replace the inoperable Equipment;

    3. In the event that the breakdown is the Renter’s responsibility or fault:

      1. The rental obligation for the Equipment shall persist until such time as a substitute unit of Equipment has been delivered to the Renter’s designated site and is deemed operational for productive use;

      2. The Equipment Owner shall possess the preferential right to refuse the provision of a similar Equipment, with any associated costs being the responsibility of the Renter;

      3. Renter will be responsible for the cost of transporting the inoperable Equipment to the Owner’s requested service provider or back to the Owner’s premises, at Owner’s discretion.

  2. Maintenance Costs and Obligations. Dizel is committed to ensuring that all Equipment available through the platform is properly maintained through ongoing preventative maintenance during the Rental Term. Preventative maintenance is mandatory and must be performed at regular intervals based on tracked Equipment usage, specifically at every 250-hour increment, including but not limited to the 250-hour and 500-hour service intervals. Maintenance obligations rest solely with the Equipment Owner, who shall ensure that all required services are completed in a timely and professional manner in accordance with manufacturer specifications and industry best practices. Dizel reserves the right, but not the obligation, to perform any required preventative maintenance on the Equipment Owner’s behalf, in which case the associated costs shall be deducted from the Equipment Owner’s rental proceeds.

    1. Each preventative maintenance service shall include, at minimum:\

      1. Fuel, oil, and coolant level checks;

      4. Diagnostic testing and condition monitoring;

      5. Tire and tread inspections;

      6. Issuance of a non-critical and/or recommended future repairs report.

    2. The Equipment Owner shall enter into the Dizel platform the cost of performing preventative maintenance per 250-hour interval. Dizel shall incorporate this cost into the rental pricing and recover the applicable amount from the Renter based on usage. Dizel shall remit such recovered maintenance amounts to the Equipment Owner unless Dizel has performed the maintenance directly.

    3. Renter’s Daily Maintenance Responsibilities

      1. Renter shall ensure that each operator performs a daily machine walk-around inspection and greasing of the Equipment. Additionally, Renter must ensure that radiators and air filters are cleaned (blown out) in accordance with the OEM’s operation manual, typically located in the glove box or behind the operator’s seat.

      2. Renter shall be solely liable for any damage to the Equipment resulting from failure to perform these daily maintenance obligations. Dizel may, at its discretion, assess and charge the Renter for such damages, which may be billed directly or deducted from Renter’s account.

    4. End-of-Term Cleaning and Return Obligations. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Rental Term, Renter shall prepare the Equipment for transportation and return it in a clean and serviceable condition, consistent with the state in which it was delivered, normal wear and tear excepted.
